Chapter 636: Chapter 552: Orbit
In the boundless white space, bubbles of different sizes floated, each projecting a different scene.
Driverless freight vehicles moving on a straight highway, giant ships sailing across the ocean, camping tents in national parks…
“Where is this?”
Gray Rain blinked in confusion, realizing she could float without the need for a floating engine.
“In the network of orbital communication satellites.”
Li Cheng surveyed the surroundings. Thanks to the technological innovations brought by the killing field, the satellite communication system has developed rapidly in recent years, widely used in intelligent transportation, ergency disaster relief, ocean communication, the Internet of Things, personal terminals, and other fields.
For residents in so areas of Africa and South Arica, purchasing a satellite network package from the Eastern Giant was even cheaper than local providers.
“Indeed it is.”
Gray Rain pressed her face closer to a bubble. In a church school in real-world Brazil Sao Paulo, her grimacing face suddenly appeared on the projector screen, scaring the little students in the classroom into tears.
“Crying? At your age, aren’t you ashad to still be in elentary school? Have so ambition.”
Gray Rain pointed and comnted, hmm… Strictly speaking, she did indeed complete her elentary school degree in just one year, though that was in part due to her high-tech robot identity.
“Stop ssing around.”
Li Cheng grabbed the back of Gray Rain’s collar and pulled her back, his expression solemn as he scanned the surroundings.
The previous self-destruction wasn’t enough to kill the Phase Change Demon. Its strength depended on the vastness of the surrounding environnt, and the orbital communication satellite was the most suitable battlefield for the Phase Change Demon.
Black mist threads gradually appeared, gathering at a speed that seed slow but was actually fast, forming a giant monster nearly a hundred ters tall.
Its body structure was similar to constantly shifting sludge, lacking sensory organs like eyes or ears, replaced instead by rotating voids.
“Has it finally revealed its true form…”
Without hesitation, Li Cheng slashed across his chest with the Liangyi Blade.
His skeleton stretched dramatically, and a dense cracking sound exploded from his limbs and bones. tal-like armor plates pierced the skin, covering his face and torso.
His tailbone spontaneously proliferated and swung breezily. The scant flesh and nerves clinging to the bones swelled dramatically, transforming into a scorpion tail stinger.
As for the Mantis Arm Bone Blade, achieving its original length, extended once more like a switchblade with a “zing” sound.
“Tss——”
This sound wasn’t from Li Cheng’s breathing, but the high-speed airflow jetting from the tiny pores of his face mask, chest armor, and back armor.
Big Swarm, a generous insect, gifted a gene library and gene editing technology comparable to the Forr Soviet Union’s research materials, which Li Cheng hadn’t yet fully tapped into.
Using just a portion, Li Cheng had mastered precise reprogramming of the geno, enabling him to turn genes on and off at will, control cell differentiation, aging, and apoptosis.
If not for the killing field’s Soul Chasing, Li Cheng would already be an immortal unaffected by age or disease, freely drinking raw water, seawater, acid rain, and nuclear waste water, even India’s Ganges River Water…
Uh, better skip that last one.
More importantly, the gene editing technology from Big Swarm also helped Li Cheng analyze Qilin Blood, opening the gates to six-base coding.
At this mont, if you magnified Li Cheng’s cells under his Insect Form, you could clearly see the upheaval inside.
The original motor proteins, using the energy released by ATP hydrolysis to propel themselves along microtubules and microfilants, transported substances within the cells, making them walk like Walking Grass.
But now, the motor protein structure was remodeled into a two-wheeled motorcycle shape, racing along the microtubules and microfilants with vesicles in tow.
As for the mitochondria supplying energy to the motor cells, their volu expanded several-fold, with their numbers increasing dozens of tis, akin to blade batteries neatly arranged by the cytoskeleton, generating imnse energy with each breath the body took.
This leads to the changes brought by this Slaughter Field Ga update. The announcent ntioned that the new version optimized the display UI of the player panel,
by subdividing the originally broad Spiritual Power Value into categories like Original Force, Chakra, Inner Strength, Magic Power, and Faith Divine Power.
The Physical Value section was newly added, showing theoretical physical value, remaining energy, and energy efficiency.
Theoretical physical value refers to the total energy theoretically contained in the body of a Transcendent, only for reference, while the latter two are more important.
If a top athlete, supported long-term by a comprehensive team in research, rehabilitation, physical fitness, dical care, nutrition, etc., is taken as a benchmark,
So, the flagship biological weapon manufactured by GS Biotechnology Company has a physical efficiency four tis that of an athlete,
while peak-level close-combat Transcendents like White Horse Tombstone and Wanli Sealed Blade, who have integrated martial arts into their way, have a martial arts skill and spiritual realm that is eight tis more efficient in physical utilization than the forr.
And now, Li Cheng, who has gradually deciphered the six-base Life Essence, achieves a physical utilization efficiency approximately 10 tis that of Wanli Sealed Blade.
Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!
Endlessly, hot air currents spewed from the pores, forming swirling smoke.
Li Cheng twisted his neck, the long tail of the scorpion tilted downward, arms raised, and the Mantis Arm Bone Blade was horizontally aligned in front of him.
“Those who sing my true na shall see eternal life in reincarnation!”
The mont the cryptic line was uttered, his figure vanished from the spot, and several kiloters away, the body of the Phase Change Demon suddenly shattered, ripped into four pieces by the effect of a cross-shaped space compression.
“…”
Li Cheng passed through the body of the Phase Change Demon, without turning back, while the light-sensitive cells hidden in the scorpion’s long tail clearly saw that the Phase Change Demon was not dead. On the contrary, its wounds exhibited a filant-like structure,
the silk threads ford by black mist were incredibly tough, extending hundreds of ters. As the spatial barrier of the Floating Engine dissipated, the black smoke net suddenly shrouded toward Li Cheng.
Buzz!
Li Cheng twisted and swung his blade, the Mantis Arm Bone Blade severing the black smoke. But imdiately after, a hole in the Phase Change Demon spun rapidly, generating a suction that pulled a bubble from the network space towards Li Cheng.
The bubble burst mid-flight, expanding into a heavy truck fully loaded with dirt.
Li Cheng remained unmoving, the long tail swung forward, the razor-sharp blade at the end slicing the entire truck in half.
But this was rely the beginning. The network devices connected to the orbit communication satellite were countless. The holes around the Phase Change Demon simultaneously rotated, sucking in a series of bubbles representing network devices, hurling them at him.
Li Cheng reversed his hand, extracting a Steel Banner Spear from the void, activating the [Counterattack Mont] special effect, causing an overloaded hundred-ton King Truck carrying steel coils to flip into the air,
then he initiated the [Rooting in Stone Technique], his petrified body collided head-on with a cargo plane, completely piercing through it.
“Watch out!”
Gray Rain’s shout ca through clearly. Just after ending his petrification, Li Cheng felt a massive shadow engulf him. He suddenly raised his left hand, and the Ape-man Degeneration Gun hidden beneath his wrist emptied its magazine, shrinking the oncoming massive ship into a dinghy.
In the initial shooting scenes of “Shanghai Fortress,” the Phase Change Demon rely corroded the set props in the film.
By the ti of the Sour Corner Porridge Action in Space City, the Phase Change Demon began to utilize and transform ga codes.
And now, arriving at the network hub of the orbit communication satellite, the Phase Change Demon finally began to exert influence over the real world,
the network devices affected by the battle, phones and satellite phones, spontaneously combusted and exploded; unmanned transport trucks rapidly malfunctioned, rushing off roads; airplane engines stalled, gliding downwards to crash;
fortunately, the communication of the [Eyes Communication Headset] was uninterrupted, the Special Affairs Bureau was still observing the battle in real-ti. They could probably notify the Global Supernatural Alliance in ti.
Sure enough, accompanied by the sound of a “beep” redirect notification,
the familiar voice of Dr. Noah ca from the headset speaker, “Hello, Mr. Pi Fu, this is Noah from the GOC. The Global Supernatural Alliance has already dispatched Transcendents, they should be able to provide aid before that Boeing 747 loses power completely and crashes into the sea.”
“Could you guys perhaps assist first?”
Li Cheng struck with a [Riding the Tide, Wind, and Waves] downward, using the counterforce from the hurricane to dodge yet another massive ship, “If worst cos to worst, you could even shoot down this communication satellite.
This place is simply the ho field of the Phase Change Demon.”
The network space of the orbit communication satellite was indeed too vast, far surpassing what small phones or internet café computers could rival. Even a Light Speed Elbow Strike couldn’t punch through the network space, and thus could not “banish” the Phase Change Demon again.
“Theoretically, we could indeed send soone or use a ballistic missile to shoot down the satellite. But the consequences would be unbearable.”
Dr. Noah quickly responded, “The communication satellite you are on is one of the eleven thousand satellites of the [Mirror Earth] plan launched by the GOC in collaboration with the Whale Song Guild, commissioned by the Shabby Street Community Committee.”
The mont Li Cheng heard “Shabby Street Community Committee,” he had a bad feeling. Though called a community committee, it was actually the small circle of Lv40s like Michael, Side of Truth, and Cold Water Stone.
When this “people” (this “people” in big quotation marks) sits down to talk, they can resolve 90% of the world’s conflicts.
Dr. Noah paused rarely and said quietly, “And the [Mirror Earth] plan is Earth’s backup.”
