"Octopus?" Huang Yuanli was momentarily stunned, "Why is it an octopus again?"
...
Gao Gong stood on the rooftop of a high-rise building, the tallest in Automobile City, approximately thirty stories high.
The sky was as bright as daylight.
Under the oppressive force of such a beast tide, even Advanced Warriors faced severe attribute suppression.
Gao Gong had them hide.
Now was not the time for them to act.
Now was the time for him to act.
Almost without hesitation, Gao Gong unleashed his Complete Form.
Rich crimson patterns began to emerge across his body, and the 3x3 meter bioelectricity started crackling.
Only this time, Gao Gong didn't transform into a monster; even his four alien claws entwined into two formidable arms.
The carbon atom reactor at his heart tore through flesh and embedded itself in his chest, shining brightly.
This was due to the rampant energy inside that forced it to 'externalize the organ,' channeling energy through his flesh to various parts.
Gao Gong took a tentative step forward, and below, a fierce gale howled, various mechanical wreckages becoming smaller like black dots.
Then, with a loud boom, Gao Gong's step seemed to tread upon the void, and simultaneously, his skin turned crimson, and his spine creaked like rapidly rotating shafts.
Flying with wings and hovering in mid-air with one's physical system are completely different things.
The former could be a Birdman, a humanoid creature with white-feathered wings, or perhaps some kind of vampire.
The latter, however, can only be achieved by 'Multi-Planet Creatures,' requiring cellular-level advancement to walk in the air.
This involved a concept called 'Carbon Fusion.'
In the universe, there are countless planets nurturing life, and the reason carbon-based species can surpass other life forms and become the mainstream of planetary species is primarily because once carbon-based life breaks through level 30, they acquire a super talent called 'Carbon Fusion.'
This 'fusion' is the basis for carbon-based life to become a superman.
Simply put, this talent allows one to integrate with the universe's substance existence, life existence, and energy existence, thus breaking through the limits of life.
High-tier carbon-based life can even merge their bodies with a fixed star or evolve a miniature black hole.
Originally, Gao Gong's attributes were not inferior to other level 30 characters, and in the 'Complete Form' state, countless high-level Radiation Beast cells fused and reassembled, directly reaching the threshold of 'Carbon Fusion.'
In this state, Gao Gong activated the carbon-based + mechanical trump card skill, Super Combination Mode.
But this time, his combination target was not the body of some B-level Radiation Beast, but the Beast Tide.
He intended to merge with the Beast Tide, competing for control over the Beast Tide with the A-level Radiation Beast.
The immense power of the Beast Tide surged madly into the 'reactor,' making it shine like a miniature sun.
[Your Mechanical Energy +202300]
[Your Biological Energy +151200]
With a thought, Gao Gong's back suddenly split open, and countless blood threads spewed out, weaving into lanterns in mid-air, which soon began to light up.
[Your Biological Energy +253100]
The sensation was almost identical to that of the Crimson Empress; one might even believe they were siblings.
'With Carbon Fusion, perhaps I can transform once more.'
Gao Gong recalled the blueprint details of the [Devil's Jet Three-Phase Type].
The next moment, on Gao Gong's arms, thighs, chest, and ribs, skull-shaped triune energy nozzles protruded, and wild particle streams burst from all parts of his body.
[Your Mechanical Energy +331100]
Gao Gong felt his body lighten, making walking in the air no longer troublesome.
At the same time, elsewhere, the wild meat blanket began to cover roads, gas stations, and skyscrapers, not just surging higher and higher like waves, but rather causing the 'sea level' to rise frantically.
The Beast Tide advanced to A-level, with the most significant amplification naturally coming to its controller, the A-level Crimson Empress.
Now, she was clad in crimson armor, somewhat resembling a Valkyrie.
An Electronic City blocked the path.
The 'Monster-Attracting Divine Artifact' activated, with hundreds of Mechanical Beasts baring their teeth and claws, lying in ambush within the maze.
The Crimson Empress halted her steps, and the next moment, the meat mountain under her feet slowly split, revealing a giant exuding acrid smoke.
The Fission Duke, whose mountainous body still bore charred scars, seemed to regain its terrifying energy. With each step, massive, smoky footprints appeared on the ground.
If there were a radiation detector, it would discover the radiation here was off the charts.
Then, his fist began to emit dazzling light.
The violent fission energy exceeded the speed of sound.
Thunder in silence.
Then, the entire Electronic City was razed to the ground, all life within a 5km radius was obliterated.
Several surrounding buildings collapsed from the impact.
Thick smoke once again billowed out from various parts of the Fission Duke's body.
The Crimson Empress furrowed her brow, maneuvered her long spear, and the thick meat blanket covered it, with countless flesh filling into the enormous body.
From a nuclear battery to a disposable tool, who knew what this guy had been through?
All because of that guy!
The meat blanket beneath her feet began to rise, climbing up to two thousand meters.
Then she watched as the white humanoid light drew closer, with the monstrous energy seemingly split in two — a part controlled by herself, while the other part was being absorbed by the opponent.
How much effort had she poured into pushing the Beast Tide to this point, only for the opponent to want to reap the fruits!?
Countless red lanterns, like crimson stars, covered the sky.
Solder meets soldier, general meets general, and king meets king.
Although it was their first meeting, they'd long shared a spiritual connection.
A cold, raspy voice, with an odd accent, suddenly rang out.
"Since you are the same kind, why stand on the side of the humans?"
Gao Gong murmured with a hint of surprise.
"So you've evolved voice organs."
"You can join me in raising the Beast Tide and annihilating the humans."
Gao Gong smirked.
"And then what, wait for a Space-Based Weapon to blow up?"
Gao Gong harbored a bit of nuclear bomb PTSD, mainly because he knew the outcome of the Hydra Battle.
The Beast God Generals obliterated all the Oases, destroyed the Factory System, breached the Nightless City.
Then, 'Cybertron' activated the Space-Based Weapon, a ground-launched Doomsday Cannon that sank half a continent.
Whether on a planet or in the universe, individuals can never be the strongest; civilization is the true power.
