The biggest improvements in this transformation are twofold. First, consciousness has broken through two hundred points, reaching the level capable of piloting a 'Gao Da'.
This attribute, jointly determined by intelligence and perception, represents the level of brain region development. Although it is not very useful now, it will be incredibly valuable in the future, especially in interstellar wars, where it will be the primary enhancement option.
The reason is simple, this is a prerequisite for piloting large mechas.
As the saying goes, 100 for pure mechanical, 200 for piloting Gao Da, 300 for piloting a shipgirl.
Pure mechanical represents large, medium, and small mechas.
Gao Da, also known as Star Armor, refers to mechas capable of battling in outer space, the super individual weapon in interstellar warfare.
Generally speaking, most Level 3 Mechanical Civilizations will take the path of mechas.
The 'Transformer Civilization' path that Gao Gong takes is merely a Level 2 Civilization, restricted to self-modification, while he prefers a 'Mechanician Civilization' in a Level 3 Mechanical Civilization.
The characteristics of this civilization are that it is famous for its dazzling array of mechas, warships, and artillery.
Couple it with biological transformation, and you've got a shipgirl.
It is worth mentioning that Gao Gong's body transformation also reached 90 points, similar to consciousness, and when body transformation breaks 100 points, it means he has reached the threshold of large planet creature transformation.
These large planet creatures generally appear during the Mesozoic geological period, on Earth, that would be the Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous periods.
Generally speaking, these large planet creatures don't appear in planetary history for too long, just like a fat man can't hop around for too long. Once the geological or biological environment changes, these large planet creatures are the first to be phased out due to various reasons, such as insufficient oxygen levels or lack of food.
Of course, there are those particularly unlucky ones, like a certain breed of dinosaurs that faced justice from a meteor.
Gao Gong considered directly transforming into a large radiation beast, like a Duke of Fission, but later found it unfeasible.
Generally, such A-level Radiation Beasts have too strong fission energy inside, which would directly pollute their own flesh, making it not worth the risk.
Moreover, the mechanical system of Radiation Beasts is already set, making it challenging for deep mechanical transformation.
Is it easier to paint on someone else's painting, or on a blank canvas?
Of course, the latter.
And coincidentally, 'Biologists' after the 2nd transition can choose a research direction, one of which is 'Paleontological Research'.
Apart from consciousness, the most significant increase is in mechanical energy. Finally, the mechanical energy on Gao Gong reached 8796 points, surpassing biological energy.
Within level 20, there is still 22% transformation space in the human body system. During this time, stacking mechanical energy to above 30,000 points should not be a problem, especially with the 'Carbon Particle Reactor', 'Devil Jet', and 'Banner of Steel'.
This Demon Mountain Three-piece Set alone can provide him with ten thousand points of mechanical energy.
A level 30 humanoid boss has a mechanical energy cap not exceeding fifty thousand, and for level 60, it's one hundred thousand, unless there are particularly abnormal ones, like Rebel A and Sister Rose, whose abilities definitely exceed the civilization limit.
Nanotechnology is a product of a Level 3 Civilization.
The skill of Sister Rose's 'massive consciousness download' has only been seen by Gao Gong in a Level 3 Bionic Civilization.
These are monsters unique to the Cyber Test Field, impossible to exist in other planet civilizations.
Gao Gong is confident that not only against a level 30 'mechanical monster', as long as the level 20 'ancient creature transformation' is successfully completed, he is confident in fighting those monsters; if not, sustaining a 50-50 fight for a short time is still possible.
But thinking about Sister Rose next door, Gao Gong felt a bit insecure, but then he stood taller, knowing his space for biological transformation is greater, a whopping 36%.
There's nothing in this world that one dog prostate can't solve. If there is, then just get another one.
Glancing at the data panel, whether it's a lottery or blueprints, there are only two or three of them, but Specialization Points accumulated quite a lot, with a whopping five points.
After some thought, Gao Gong decided to enhance the 'Hacker Gunman'.
For no other reason, in battles of the same level, regardless of whether the opponent has a Boss Template or not, he can always say he is sure to win, even if the enemy is 10 or 20 levels higher, his chances of winning are very high, unless it's one of those planet level bosses, like a certain mature lady next door.
But he won't stay in the Iron Sand Desert for long; future battles will focus more on the network level. If he's unlucky enough to get discovered and gang-beaten by some giant corporation's exclusive armed forces, like Rebel A being surrounded by a Mechanical Legion, that's a different story.
The latter could be solved through 'Ancient Creature Transformation', but as for the former, he's relatively weak.
Therefore, enhancing skills that target 'Data Life' is still very important.
From ordinary to advanced, then to elite and expert, each only requires one specialization point, but from expert to master, it requires a full 3 specialization points.
For the Hacker Gunman upgrade to master, there are two choices.
One is the Hacker Legion, relying on quantity to win, a bit like Mr. Ford's virus conversion skills before.
Another one is the Source Code Killer, capable of breaking the 'bottom logic' of cyberspace and completely killing AI life.
Gao Gong didn't hesitate and chose the latter.
[You have chosen 'Source Code Killer']
[This skill can break the embedded structure of cyberspace and perform 'Source Code Shredding']
At the same time, all six skill points were allocated to this newly minted master skill, raising it to lv6.
[You consumed 150,000 experience to upgrade 'Source Code Killer' to lv7]
[You consumed 150,000 experience to upgrade 'Source Code Killer' to lv8]
[You consumed 150,000 experience to upgrade 'Source Code Killer' to lv9]
[You consumed 150,000 experience to upgrade 'Source Code Killer' to lv10max]
[You have upgraded 'Source Code Killer (Master)' to full level, obtaining the Master's Certificate (Level 2 Civilization)]
Master's Certificate (Level 2 Civilization): Your exceptional skills have gained world recognition, and no one can defeat you in your area of expertise.
Source Code Killer max: Your cutting through program logic, data structures, and algorithm programming is like dismembering an ox with ease. To you, any level of AI life is just a heap of crude building blocks. Remove one, and the mountain collapses and the sea falls.
The master-level 'Source Code Killer' does not have any additional state, because 'Source Code Killer' itself is a state.
Gao Gong closed his eyes, and the next moment, the entire Sky Mother Ship disappeared, replaced by strands of silk threads. These threads varied in thickness, and each represented a piece of source code. However, this was not cyberspace; these 'silk threads' were few and mostly concentrated next door.
Gao Gong opened his eyes and found himself in the laboratory next door.
Black Rose frowned and looked ahead, her expression seemed somewhat displeased.
Opposite her was a man, slender and cultured, with an artist's silver-white ponytail and jet-black, stern, and cold eyes.
Through his eyes, you could almost see the boundless electronic network in his mind.
This man combined both coldness and romance.
He was none other than the Chief Executive Officer of the Electronic Grid, an individual who had merged with electronic networks, freed from the shackles of the flesh, and needed no name, only the codename, Electronic Executor.
It was evident that this man was currently very weak, surrounded by terrifying purple, on the glass, walls, and ceiling, these purples were constantly bulging with veins, absorbing 'his' power.
However, judging by Sister Rose's look, this absorption had become very limited.
'Electronic Executor' began to speak, not with a mechanical, cold electronic voice, but with an artist's hidden enthusiasm and passion.
"The Electronic Grid Bionic Group was founded by a communication-type primogenitor bionic man, 45 years ago. Over the years, we have replaced 215 generations of electronic bionic men. From nothing to existence, we created the Bionic Network Access Chamber, Bionic Base Station, and Bionic Electronic Wall, and based on the first-generation primordial communication technology, we have continuously invested heavily in research and development. To date, we have developed the eighth-generation Neural Communication Technology, successfully surpassing the original communication technology."
"In the past five years, with the bidding for cyberspace infrastructure in Mother City, we have captured 60% of the market share. I believe that in two years, this share will reach 90%."
"Our next strategic direction at the Electronic Grid is to build an exclusive cyber network for bionic men. Our neuron motion speed is ten times that of primordial people, and the new model of bionic men can reach a hundred times, so why should we tolerate such slow 'network speed' from primordial people?"
"Moreover, the thoughts of primordial people are too chaotic, too scattered, busy with living, busy with dying, busy experiencing hormone stimuli provided by their sensory organs, which also leads to a lack of concentrated computational power, failing to realize the technological explosion that Mother City envisions."
"But we are different. Our thinking mode is pure and noble. Beehive structure? Swarm intelligence? No, no, no, I prefer to call it bionic man thinking. This is a civilizational advantage, a unique advantage of an advanced race replacing a backward one."
"Just as they replaced apes, we too shall replace them!"
This guy did not seem to consider himself a prisoner but was giving a passionately dynamic speech.
"Don't you think you've talked too much nonsense?" Black Rose said coldly.
The 'Executor' gently smiled and said, "I just want to tell you that running a super corporation is far from as simple as you imagine. If you think that just by killing me, you can take over, then you are thinking too lightly."
"The evolution requirements of Mother City, the profit demands of shareholders, the social needs of new model bionic men—any issue with one of these parties will lead to us being replaced by corporate will."
"When the Mechanical Era arrived, there were a total of 312 registered bionic man companies. Now only six remain, and in the future, these six will only further decrease. Three is a suitable number. Whoever can't keep up with the times will be eliminated."
"I know you've obtained quite a bit of corporate secrets from me, but you should also know that the corporation is rapidly severing my Chief Executive Officer powers."
"What you get from me will only decrease."
"You can't kill me."
"On the contrary, by keeping me, you'll gain more."
