Infinite Job Transfers Starting from Mechanic-Chapter 996 - 502: Inside the Mechanical Palace (Part 2)

Chapter 996: Chapter 502: Inside the Mechanical Palace (Part 2)

This reassured Su Yu a lot. It seemed that as long as he didn’t court death, there was no need for spiritual detection of the Pain Evil God’s body.

The leaked power of destruction wouldn’t be that terrifying.

Of course, this lack of terror was only true for Su Yu.

For others, it was a different story.

For example, the person in front of Su Yu.

In front of Su Yu was Song Ming.

At this time, Song Ming was almost unrecognizable as a human, as most of his skin and flesh had disappeared.

Only a set of the nervous system remained, connected to half a brain, suspended in the air like a bizarre "jellyfish," moving forward step by step.

After delving into the Mechanical Palace, Song Ming found it hard to recover, even with time retrospection.

He could barely avoid those slaughter machinery by his side, and much of his flesh had been carved away by these machines.

He had to fully concentrate on resisting the erosion of the power of destruction, leaving no energy to deal with these machines.

Song Ming was struggling because his inherent rank was too low, only Third-Order.

It seemed that in a moment, he would completely perish under this power of destruction.

Su Yu pondered whether he should save him later.

"If it gets really bad, I’ll rescue him, but I guess he won’t need it..."

After a brief thought, Su Yu decided to save him.

After all, Song Ming considered himself human at this moment and was striving to save the Azure Star civilization. Essentially, he held no malice.

Su Yu naturally wouldn’t watch him die.

However, Su Yu didn’t believe that Song Ming would die so easily.

Though Song Ming appeared to be a Third-Order human, in essence, he was a fusion of the Savior Origin of many civilizations.

He wasn’t human at all, and his actual rank was unknown.

Moreover, there was that enigmatic figure supporting him from behind, surely not letting him die.

Su Yu wanted to see what changes Song Ming would undergo next.

Just as Su Yu had this thought, he saw Song Ming’s figure suddenly change, with the remaining nervous system and half brain vanishing under the power of destruction.

Only, he didn’t really die.

Su Yu saw the slaughter machinery in the surrounding Mechanical Palace start to tremble suddenly.

A large number of mechanical parts were dismantled by an invisible force, flying into the air.

Moments later, these components had assembled into a human form, precisely Song Ming!

At this point, he had transformed from a human form into a Mechanical Life!

This was complete mechanization, with no flesh left on his entire body!

His mechanical body had a very eerie style, completely different from human mechanical styles, seemingly using the mechanical style and technology of the Cosmic Alien Species.

"Is this a new awakening of the power of world salvation, is this... mechanical ascension?"

Su Yu was slightly taken aback by the sight and then immediately understood.

Under the power of destruction, Song Ming awakened a new power of world salvation to adapt to the environment here.

With flesh unable to survive, he fully mechanized himself, which is what they call mechanical ascension.

Some flesh civilizations might choose this route when faced with terrifying extinction, mechanizing themselves to achieve mechanical ascension and cope with the crisis.

As an "Ultimate Savior," a fusion of multiple civilizations’ Savior Essence, Song Ming naturally possessed this capability.

So at the crucial moment, he awakened this ability and "ascended" himself.

The previous "jellyfish" form might also align with a transformation brought about by the power of world salvation.

However, this ability, in reality, was of no use against the power of destruction.

The power of destruction doesn’t care if you’re Mechanical Life or flesh and blood, annihilating everything indiscriminately.

In the images Su Yu had seen before, there were scenes of the Human Empire’s army fighting against Mechanical Life civilization and wiping out civilizations.

Compared to those incredibly strong Mechanical Life forms traversing the galaxy, the mechanized form Song Ming became after "ascending" was laughable.

However, the materials Song Ming used for mechanical ascension were the metal components from the Mechanical Palace.

For some unknown reason, the Mechanical Palace had a form of immunity to the power of destruction.

After Song Ming used these metals to construct his body, he seemed to also acquire the same immunity.

However, Su Yu knew that the destruction caused by the power of destruction wasn’t merely physical; it was total annihilation of spirit, thought, memory, spiritual energy...

Even though Song Ming’s body gained immunity, his thoughts and memories likely didn’t.

But mere physical immunity already allowed Song Ming to catch his breath. After "ascending" successfully, he immediately quickened his pace and marched forward.

It seemed he aimed to witness the Pain Evil God’s body before his thoughts and memories were entirely annihilated.

Ever since Su Yu informed him about the power of destruction, he seemed agitated, desperate to charge in, regardless of the risk, like he had some purpose known only to him.

Surely, he doesn’t believe he can resolve the Pain Evil God situation?

A thought crossed Su Yu’s mind, prompting him to quicken his pace to follow Song Ming.

Soon, the two of them passed through what had once a lengthy slaughter line, requiring nobles to endure a year’s pain and torture.

At the end of the line was a dark metal hall, filled with pipelines converging into a Mechanical Throne deep in the hall.

A mummified "person" was sitting on it!

This mummified person sat motionless, with a body constantly transforming.

Sometimes annihilating, sometimes rebirthing.

During the annihilation and rebirth of its body, a darkness could be seen within, yet it vaguely held some mechanical structure.

"Pain Evil God!"

From afar, Su Yu saw this figure, and his pupils contracted instantly.

After being in the dream realm for so long, he finally faced the Pain Evil God!

"The Evil God’s transformation into Soldier Mecha hasn’t disappeared."

"The origin of the Mechanical God seemed unaffected."

At the first sight of the Pain Evil God, these thoughts immediately flashed across Su Yu’s mind.

Su Yu had always been puzzled since he had now swapped roles with the Pain Evil God, yet how was the Pain Evil God’s transformation into Evil God Soldier Mecha progressing?

Could it have been overridden by the dream realm’s "setting" and vanished?

Su Yu had previously monitored the Pain Evil God spiritually but detected no relevant information.

It seemed the Pain Evil God’s thoughts and memories had been affected, even forgetting that he was transformed.

To not alarm the Pain Evil God, Su Yu hadn’t tried to sense or control the Evil God Soldier Mecha, for fear of alerting the Pain Evil God.

But Su Yu always suspected the Evil God Soldier Mecha was still there.

Now, Su Yu could finally confirm that the Pain Evil God’s transformation into Evil God Soldier Mecha, indeed hadn’t disappeared.

In essence, the one sitting on the Mechanical Throne playing the mummy role was still the Evil God Soldier Mecha.

Perhaps because the core of the Evil God Soldier Mecha wasn’t really the Pain Evil God, but the Cosmic Alien Species: Mechanical God.

This Mechanical God, even while severely damaged and in slumber, possessed an extremely high essence, exceeding the Fifth-Order.

This Fifth-Order dream realm setting failed to affect the Mechanical God.

The Mechanical God was an old friend of Su Yu’s. Knowing it was safe reassured Su Yu greatly.

If Su Yu were willing, he could even activate the permissions of the Evil God Soldier Mecha, gaining a certain degree of control over the Pain Evil God.

This permission was founded on the core origin of the Mechanical God, hard to erase.

But Su Yu wasn’t eager to activate the Evil God Soldier Mecha for now.

If the Mecha’s permissions were activated, they might be destroyed by the Pain Evil God, or even trace back to attack Su Yu along the connection.

Su Yu had suffered from this before, so he wouldn’t be reckless now.

After confirming the state of the Evil God Soldier Mecha, Su Yu observed the Pain Evil God closely again. He found that it was indeed as he had previously guessed, unable to withstand the power of destruction, always on the brink of annihilation.

It’s estimated that only fifteen years later could the Pain Evil God adapt to such terrifying power, marking the moment of [Destiny]’s arrival.

Su Yu glanced twice at the scene, then turned to Song Ming.

He wanted to see what Song Ming had planned to do here.

At this moment, even though Song Ming had "mechanically ascended," his expressions were still visible.

In his expressions were hatred, confusion, despair, determination... it seemed like hundreds of personalities and emotions surged within him.

Simultaneously, seemingly stimulated by that pure power of destruction from the Pain Evil God, another new "power of world salvation" was awakening in Song Ming!
