Starting as a Mechanical Hunter-Chapter 449 - 188: Banquet of Jealousy

’Brain plug-in’ and ’brain bump’ are two branches on the same line of technology.

’Brain plug-in’ needs no explanation: brain-machine interface, virtual world, Destructive Divine Domain, Heaven... ah, erase that last one.

But ’brain bump’ is another matter altogether.

The difference between the two is that ’brain plug-in’ requires a host system to manipulate, whereas ’brain bump’ does not.

The brain itself is its manipulation system.

Back in the day, Mr. G peddled books across the entire star system and was frequently raided by various civilizations’ anti-pornography campaigns, losing his collection of wives.

After a major financial loss, Mr. G took a long hard look at himself, pondering why his incredibly legitimate industry kept getting wiped out by the forces of harmonization across different civilizations.

It’s merely a matter of changing XP, altering lineage, and disrupting race propagation.

Eventually, he figured it out — the fault wasn’t with him, but with this world — or rather, the regulatory systems of the major civilizations.

Thus, he obsessively delved into technology, rewrote the human code, experimented with products, and finally developed the [Super Brain Enhancement System].

With it equipped, you could freely enter various ’interest’ Beautiful Worlds and play joyously.

Home console + firewall-breaching hardware

That is the meaning of this thing.

As for other functions, similar to ’brain plug-in’, it enhances brain computational power, brain-chip fusion, and direct human-machine communication.

The reason Gao Gong had to gamble for this blueprint, apart from his rampant Gambling Dog Spirit, was for a very important reason.

This thing, in some sense, is the nemesis of the ’Electronic Brain Plan’.

The Electronic Brain recklessly plugs into the world, aggregating computational power, making the Cyber Network expand crazily.

The people on this planet can’t even shut down the Electronic Brain if they wanted to.

Thus, the existence of the [Super Brain Enhancement System] becomes meaningful.

And the special chip required for this blueprint can be produced with a ’Universal Chip Production Machine’.

Thinking of this, Gao Gong walked along the road of Nightless City.

Suddenly, Gao Gong halted, looking around in confusion, having no recollection of when he left the Mechanical Hub.

"Little A?"

"Little A is here."

"You’re here alright, now perform a system antivirus scan, you’ve been hacked!"

"Little A understands."

Little A’s voluptuous virtual image flickered and vanished, and in the next moment, electronic code covered her uneven body like rain.

The code for this basic artificial intelligence was personally written by Gao Gong, far exceeding her current level, and as the electronic code refreshed, a golden cheongsam that reached her thighs suddenly appeared on her.

Little A looked dazedly at the cheongsam on her, suddenly froze, lagging and stuttering, as if her holographic projection was about to disappear at any moment.

Gao Gong sneered, closed his eyes, and re-opened them, completing the ’virtualization’ conversion.

Biological Information Stream Sense (Virtual Organ): The host can fortify the biological information of a specific body part, perform informational transformation, and any part completed through transformation becomes a virtual sense.

Transparent eyes glanced around, and in his field of view, every pedestrian was clad in a ’code coat’.

The men wore traditional Chinese outfits, and the women wore cheongsams.

If one didn’t know better, they would think it was a large-scale Republic of China drama set.

With this move, every living person turned into a ’mobile signal station’ for the enemy hackers.

The opponent could attack from any angle.

No wonder he didn’t feel a thing before the intrusion.

Another genius at creating a Local Area Network.

Or rather, a Super AI!

In an instant, War Hacker directly leveled up from lv1 to lv5, with the additional 10 points added to Intelligence.

Hacker Chip ’System Manipulation’.

Though the name is grandiose, among the ten chips Ahong gave for free, this chip has the least utility.

High-level systems can’t be hacked, hence they can’t be manipulated.

Low-level systems have no hacking value anyway.

But after loading the ’Trait’ of ’War Hacker’, the effect is entirely different.

Information War Pioneer — the inevitable transformation of warfare, but no matter how it changes, it’s always about altering the way information is acquired, and you, through information, completely transform the battlefield form.

Gao Gong’s virtual sense directly transferred from ’eyes’ to ’brain’, turning the head transparent, and the neural signals frantically converted into machine language, supporting ’System Manipulation’.

On the virtual level, as ’System Manipulation’ activated, all ’system products’ along the way started transforming.

Virtual Machines turned into Virtual Machine Guns.

The bionic men on the exhibition stand pulled out the ’Desert Eagle’.

The AI that passed by transformed on the spot, countless gun muzzles protruded from its body.

Virtual bullets fired wildly, and on the entire street, all the men in traditional dress and women in cheongsams were directly swept away.

[You killed ’Support System Sub-Body No. 21’, experience +200]

[You killed ’Support System Sub-Body No. 24’, experience +200]

[You killed ’Support System Sub-Body No. 25’, experience +200]

...

In just a short moment, Gao Gong’s system had gained ten thousand experience points.

’System Manipulation’ seemed to suddenly become a Divine Technique.

This was determined by the professional specialization of the War Hacker, ’Secret War’.

The professional specialization ’Secret War’ adds a +10% Soldier Type Compatibility, +15% Transformation Success Rate, and +30% Firepower Enhancement. As the shadow of war, your presence will increase the probability of winning a war.

Initially, why did Gao Gong abandon the ’Intrusion Hacker’ with its stronger invasion capabilities, and the ’Death Hacker’ with its stronger killing abilities?

The main reason is that War Hackers can transform normal attacks into area attacks.

Its coverage range is proportional to ’Intelligence’.

One point of Intelligence can split into one ’System Manipulation’.

Gao Gong’s Intelligence is 132 points, so he can perform 132 ’System Manipulations’ simultaneously.

Of course, in an extensive battlefield, this ability is not very buggy; after all, even a regular Modified Human soldier has an Electronic Defense Wall to block a single ’System Manipulation’.

But Gao Gong considered more about his situation post-transformation.

Not to mention, once he completes a ’Large Biological Transformation’, his Intelligence will multiply several dozen times, making the effects terrifying.

With a large AOE range of hacker skills, advanced weapons would all rebel; just imagining the scene is too beautiful.

After sweeping through the entire street, Gao Gong glanced at ’Little A’ and found that it was still stuttering.

Frowning slightly, the Void Gyroscope in his hand began to spin, much like a Supreme Mage showing off skills. As the gyroscope spun, the ground began to sink, buildings, stores, and streets started to bend, turning the entire ’Nightless City’ into a giant Möbius ring.

All the people, dressed in Tang suit cheongsams, continued to circulate on this ’ring’.

"Not bad!" An old voice of admiration sounded.

Super AIs are the pinnacle of AI, but even among Super AIs, there are differences in strength.

Some Super AIs can only rely on hardware power, and once their main body is captured, they’re helpless, like Dr. Rong on Fucheng Island.

Some Super AIs possess computational power not inferior to Big Data Conceptual Bodies, coupled with top hacker methods, incredibly terrifying.

The one before him belonged to the second type.

Just as Gao Gong wanted to expand the Möbius ring and deepen operations, suddenly, his vision blurred, and when he regained focus, he had already returned to reality.

Pedestrians were bustling with no corpses in sight.

Confrontations on a virtual level rarely affect reality unless deliberately targeted.

Of course, if one further progresses to the information level, that’s a different matter.

But to drag Gao Gong from the virtual realm back to reality is as hard as breaking the Fourth Wall.

"Various body hormones – dopamine, serotonin, norepinephrine – have all fluctuated up and down."

"Interesting, comparing physical manipulation with me!"

Gao Gong twisted his neck and almost at the same time, hundreds of people on the street twisted theirs.

Then, these people’s five senses began to change, regardless of gender or age, all turning into Gao Gong’s appearance.

The ’Flesh Fusion’ power, as Gao Gong’s organism strengthens, becomes increasingly bizarre.

’With so many hormones, let’s see how you pull now.’

Gao Gong sneered slightly, just about to re-enter the virtual level, suddenly, something strange happened.

On the scene, all Gao Gong’s body surfaces sizzled, and fine bioelectric currents emerged, causing everyone’s body hormones to vibrate madly like men and women in a nightclub.

"Bioelectricity, this thing can be used like this?"

More miraculously, the biological energy parasitized on these people by Gao Gong was directly destroyed by a type of destructive energy.

And this power, he was very familiar with.

Destructive Energy!!

Could he not be familiar with it? The last time, it was this thing that played his Mechanical Body to collapse.

In an instant, it was as if two large nets from the reality and virtual levels wound around Gao Gong.

But Gao Gong did not resist again. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

Because he knew who had come.

My rich lady!

...

In the most luxurious hotel in Nightless City, Sister Rose, wearing a bathrobe that concealed her voluptuous figure, held a wine glass in one hand and tapped the nightstand with the other, her long, pale legs faintly visible.

"Oh, I better take a walk outside, kids nowadays really play it wild."

On the glass, Aramaki’s virtual image flickered momentarily.

Soon, a sweet-looking bionic waitress pushed in with an oversized serving cart.

"Customer, your order of ’Men’s Assortment’ has arrived, enjoy your meal."

Sister Rose leisurely stepped forward and opened the serving cart, with various exquisite foods spread over a well-built man’s body.

In addition, there was a particularly familiar handsome face.

"Hmph!"

...

After having her fill, Black Rose sat in front of the mirror, lazily managing her rose-colored shoulder-length hair.

Behind her, Gao, satiated, was attentively massaging her shoulders.

"I heard, your little girlfriend came?"

"No, that’s completely untrue, Sister Rose; who did you hear that from?"

"Oh? Someone made one call, and a big shot making waves in the weapon market showed up in a hurry; is that not right?"

Gao silently mused, damn, I forgot to put vinegar on the sushi earlier.
