Gao Xin was searching through various exchanges.
With 120,000 points, he could actually exchange for a prosthetic body with high-intensity camouflage capabilities.
[C Grade Nanobiomitic Kinetic Skeleton·Camouflage Model]100,000 points, centering on the spine, implanted throughout the whole body, and capable of deceiving most detectors.
Regardless of whether the muscles could withstand it or not, strength could be stabilized at three tons, with high endurance; as long as there was energy, it could maintain this peak.
Equating to the exchange of this item, the chanical stopping power was comparable to a True Wolf Level, with skeletal hardness surpassing steel, bullet-resistant, and it was even made of mory tal, so even if twisted into a pretzel, it could slowly auto-recover.
However, after careful inspection, Gao Xin gave up, not because he felt it couldn’t deceive, but because this thing did too much damage to the body’s natural functions.
All of the brain’s control signals over the body, including hormones and whatnot, had to pass through it; it was using a chanical spine central system to replace the body’s original system.
If Gao Xin were just an ordinary person, he would have exchanged for it without hesitation, but he had False Words Cast Heart, "Fantasy Projection".
If he got his hands on this gadget, many future changes in his body wouldn’t be determined by the brain, but by a computer.
It’s like hiring a regent for the body, with the brain being overridden.
Similarly, most prosthetic bodies were like this; for Gao Xin, who could completely control his body, cyborgs were not suitable for him.
"As long as I can reconfigure my genes and enhance the potential of my flesh, with the help of False Words Cast Heart, I will make rapid progress."
"AI technology is too unpredictable; my advantage lies in mastering the relationship between mind and body, so the flesh-based approach suits better."
Gao Xin gave up the cybernetic faction and focused on searching for enhancents less affected by AI technology.
The more he searched, the more frustrated he beca; all the enhancers were linked to Radiation, or they were cyborgs.
In any case, there was no matter for Glass People, the limits of Glass People were as they stood now, having been fully developed already.
"Aside from buying a gene protector, the rest can only be compensated for through external ans."
He searched for things he could use, envisioned keywords, and looked for a long ti.
Suddenly, he found a very niche category in drugs: symbiotics.
"Symbiotics?"
Gao Xin’s eyes lit up; symbiotics were in between the self and external objects.
According to the description here, the human body itself is an ecosystem, with various microorganisms in the skin, hair, body, and even in the organs and brain.
Countless bacteria, viruses, fungi, and more.
Powerful Radiations often feature evolved strong microorganisms, and with AI cultivation and improvent, there are now various strains of fungi with unique functions.
For example, resistance fungi, with all types of resistances available, so parasitize internally, others on the body surface.
So are imperceptible, while others look like tattoos on the body.
They help the human body resist various harsh environnts, such as high temperature, high pressure, radiation, toxic fog, electricity, and more.
There are even kinetic energy absorption spores that absorb the kinetic energy impacts on the human body!
Any kinetic energy impact on the body will absorb a portion within a short ti, including punches and kicks, chops and axe blows, hamr strikes and sword stabs, and even gunshot and explosion Shockwaves.
C-grade kinetic resistance spores could let one have resistance to blows comparable to a Sub-Wolf Level for only 6,000. C grade is comparable to a True Wolf Level and costs 12,000.
"Great stuff!" Gao Xin’s eyes sparkled; it turns out ordinary people could have special abilities too, by relying on symbiotics.
Moreover, it wouldn’t beco outdated even after becoming Radiation, because it’s symbiotic and will grow with the body.
Of course, its absorption has a limit, for example, the C-grade is 4.2 million joules; once full, it can’t absorb anymore.
Therefore, its durability is far inferior to a real Sub-Wolf. The more dynamic energy absorbed in a short ti, the lower the subsequent absorption efficiency, and hence the impact resistance drops to the level of a Lesser Wolf.
If it’s filled up, the defense is reduced back to that of an ordinary person.
Luckily, this absorbed energy can be utilized, but ordinary people do not have the capacity to use 4.2 million joules of energy in a short ti.
But Gao Xin was different. His Fantasy Training was actually very energy-intensive, requiring a lot of food intake, along with the expenditure of Heart Power.
If the body already had lots of surplus energy, he could consu it even when fasting, or the sa amount of Heart Power could yield better results.
This symbiotic, when exchanged by others, was just a temporary enhancent; for him, it was endlessly useful.
Gao Xin continued to browse; there were many types of symbiotics.
Their functions were strange and varied, like beauty mites that could remove dark spots and acne marks and such from the face.
They could also make the skin smooth and glossy, even capable of reshaping the face subtly over ti.
There was also the Infrared virus; this virus invaded the brain and settled in photoreceptor cells, allowing one to see infrared light.
And so on, the varieties were countless.
However, Gao Xin didn’t need these for the ti being.
He urgently needed stronger asures that could help him escape.
"Resistance spores are very good, let’s see if there are any offensive types."
Gao Xin hoped for more offensive thods, but after looking for a while, he gave up directly.
"What is all this? The power is too low, and they’re especially expensive."
Gao Xin saw a shooter fungus that required 8,000 points to exchange; this thing parasitized the human body, could grow aty mushrooms on the body, capable of shooting various bodily fluids, or even lithified secretions.
The maximum kinetic energy was 2,000 joules.
He had unit 97 compare it; the power of shooting a liquid was almost harmless unless it was highly corrosive.
As for shooting stones, it was equivalent to a semi-automatic rifle, but the fire rate was slow...
More importantly, with 8,000 points, one could buy a rocket launcher directly! Why grow a at gun on your body?
Of course, for him, a slave, this sort of concealnt was fine, but he still felt it wasn’t worth it; after all, he wasn’t good at using guns.
There were many more like this, generally quite lackluster, and there were so impressive fungi, such as electricity bugs, but those cost tens of thousands, making Gao Xin speechless.
In the end, he found that the most cost-effective for him were the resistance spores and sothing called High Energy Digestive Bacteria.
The super potent High Energy Digestive Bacteria could break down various substances that ordinary people couldn’t digest.
Stones, broken tal, even poison were fair ga.
Gao Xin, bound by the edict of False Words Cast Heart, relied on external objects, but until now, he dared not consu anything with too intense an effect.
If it were poisonous or superheated, then it’s likely he wouldn’t even have the chance to engage False Words Cast Heart before the poison physically destroyed him.
"A Grade C digestive bacteria group, just for five thousand—definitely need to have that."
"Mm, but the conversion range at Grade C isn’t much more than that of an ordinary person. How about we just get Grade B for fifty thousand points?"
"Fast and efficient digestion, and I can eat most things like bones, stones, iron pieces, fibers, plastics, seawater, and even various toxic chemicals."
"If my body can withstand it, it can even digest lower-temperature lava—tsk, lava! And convert all the chemical substances within it into things I can easily absorb!"
"It’s worthy of being a fifty-thousand-point symbiotic bacteria group, able to withstand temperatures up to a thousand degrees, but I can’t."
Gao Xin was weighing his options, contemplating whether to allocate his main exchange resources to the kinetic resistance spores, or to the digestive bacteria group.
One would allow him to enhance his combat abilities at this stage, while the other fitted perfectly with False Words Cast Heart and would be extrely useful in the long run.
Grade B kinetic resistance spores, for sixty thousand points, would grant him sub-Tiger Level resistance to blows!
Sub-Tiger, to confront foes like snakes and Rousi at that level, he could resist many hits without dying.
But, there were downsides. Sub-Tiger defense didn’t an sub-Tiger vitality, and his combat power was far from comparable.
After a few punches from an enemy, the kinetic energy might already be maxed out. Moreover, even a real wolf, with its heart shattered, wouldn’t die, but he was just an ordinary person. If a vital part was injured, even if so of the kinetic energy damage was absorbed and negated, he might still die.
Additionally, the Grade B kinetic resistance spores had an energy absorption limit of 42 million joules.
He had no ability to dissipate such a level of energy quickly, hence after exchange, in actual combat, it would beco a temporary defense.
If he engaged in prolonged combat, even though he would start with sub-Tiger Level impact resistance, later on, he would still only maintain at a wolf level.
Effectively, he’d be spending ten tis the price to make himself exceptionally tough at the beginning of combat...
Given that, it would be better to exchange directly for Grade C; this way, he was confident that in actual combat, by combining with the consumption of the imaginary body projection, he could sustain a sub-wolf level resistance to blows over a long period.
As for the digestive bacteria group, in Gao Xin’s view, it was more worthwhile to exchange for the higher grade.
Although this thing couldn’t explosively increase his strength for the ti being.
It matched his False Words Cast Heart very well, and in the future, he could survive on just eating any grass.
Of course, his body was too weak now, actually holding back the potential of this item.
After all, the digestive bacteria group would adapt and transform various nutrients according to the body’s ability to absorb them.
A glass person could only absorb so many kinds of nutrients, so the energy and nutrition it transford would also be quite ordinary, and most would be wasted and excreted.
Grade B corresponded to Tiger Level! This ant that only Tiger Level powerhouses could utilize the full efficiency of the Grade B High Energy Digestive Bacteria.
They could convert food into various substances needed by ordinary people, wolf levels, and Tiger Levels.
Although Gao Xin was an ordinary person, if he exploited the Fake dicine effect, the Fake dicine could maximize the transformation capabilities of the digestive bacteria group, preventing them from being wasted like they would be with a true ordinary person.
This matched False Words Cast Heart perfectly, and the higher the grade, the more useful it was because the higher the grade, the broader the diet.
Maybe in the end, he could eat anything, and everything would be dicine!
Such thoughts could also nourish his confidence.
In any case, adapting it to his body early rather than exchanging for it later was preferable.
Ultimately, Gao Xin determined his purchase, exchanging for Grade C kinetic resistance spores and Grade B High Energy Digestive Bacteria.
"Co on, implant!"
Gao Xin was quickly enveloped in light; this ti, it took longer than when he enhanced his brain. The Grade C kinetic resistance spores took twenty minutes.
And the Grade B High Energy Digestive Bacteria took even longer, a full hour.
Because his body was too weak, with AI’s help, the digestive bacteria group needed quite a bit of ti to adapt to him.
It was as if a formidable civilization had been thrown into a harsh desert with scant resources, forced to initially contract back to the Stone Age...
After the implantation, the first thing Gao Xin felt was... hunger!
Extre hunger! Hunger that turned his eyes red!
The High Energy Digestive Bacteria were frantically sending signals to his brain to eat, as if protesting: What the hell kind of place is this?!
The intensity of the hunger signals was terrifying. With Gao Xin’s willpower and control over his body, he nearly lost his mind on the spot, almost wishing he could bite into Su Lei next to him.
One could imagine, this thing really wasn’t sothing ordinary people could handle.
Although a glass person could get the implant, it was too much of a stretch.
It was Gao Xin who, by controlling the body with his mind, could perfectly suppress his body’s instincts.
If any other glass person insisted on getting this implant, they might lose control, becoming a puppet to appetite, a slave to the microorganisms inside them, turning into a humanoid termite that ate whatever it saw.
"No wonder symbiotic organisms are just a small subcategory among dicines and aren’t even considered as enhancents."
"Glass people who exchange for them do get a significant boost, but not without considerable side effects."
"These are living creatures! If one isn’t strong enough, one might be controlled by them."
"And for Radiations, the cost-benefit ratio is poor, the higher the grade the more useless."
"Why spend tens of thousands of points on these? For reduced damage, digestive effects? The abilities belong to the symbiotic organisms, not yourself; it’s better to exchange for a good gene module, which might produce a similar group of microorganisms in a life-or-death situation."
"However, for , they are very useful. Once they enter my body, I can control them perfectly."
Gao Xin steadied his mind and easily suppressed various hormones and biological signals that were agitating inside him.
As soone who recognized himself as the awakened little saint spirit, he could not be dominated by the shackles of the flesh.
