Chapter 464: Chapter 228: Lv. 30 Hunter Emperor’s Chainsaw Sword, Golden Armor, Biological Mecha

"However..."

With that, Ling Yi turned back to look at Lin Feng.

"You can’t control Life Forms, and my Infinite Reproduction is useless against non-living things. It’s a perfect match—we complement each other, which will speed up the development of the Biological Mecha!"

"We can’t build a kilometer-sized Star-Destroying Mecha right now, but a miniature Biological Mecha under ten meters..."

"...that’s a piece of cake!"

Listening to Ling Yi’s eloquent boasting, coupled with her completely confident tone, Lin Feng pursed his lips.

"Fine, we’ll give it a try."

"How long will it take?"

"We have two hours at most. We still need to hurry and take over the main Nest to the west and hatch the Tier Two Zerg Eggs in the Nest. If we delay any longer, the enemy will be at our doorstep!"

Ling Yi walked toward the Mother Empress’s corpse, looking quite confident.

"Don’t worry. If we’re not aiming for combat power and just need it to be able to move, half an hour is enough."

"Besides, we can’t get too detailed with just the materials here. At most, we can only build a frame. To create a Biological Armor with true Tier Three combat power, we’d need a Tier Two incubation Nest and multiple rounds of cultivation and calibration."

As she spoke, she was already manipulating the remains of the Mother Empress’s body, melting and piecing together the rough frame of the Mecha.

The high-strength spinal column served as the skeleton, cellular tissues from a Tier Three Life Form were packed in as muscle, and finally, blood vessels were added to transport nutrients.

Next, she used the Mother Empress Brain Marrow as the Biological Mecha’s central control unit, connecting the entire nervous system to the ends of the marrow.

As the Biological Mecha began to take shape, a thick, keratinous hide grew over its muscle- and vessel-covered exterior. A seven-meter-tall humanoid creature rose from the Mother Empress’s corpse.

After a dozen or so minutes, Ling Yi finished her work, clapped her hands, and flicked away the residue on her palms. She surveyed the creation she had personally sculpted and nodded in satisfaction.

Lin Feng, however, had a dark look on his face.

The Biological Mecha this Ling Yi character had created bore a face that was strikingly similar to his own.

It wasn’t just the face; even the proportions of its limbs and torso were an exact match.

"Seriously? I told you to give it a try, not to use me as a template and build... this thing!"

Lin Feng protested with a shudder. Anyone would feel a strange sense of revulsion seeing a doll scaled up to their own proportions.

It was like the celebrity wax figures in a museum.

Ling Yi shrugged, her tone perfectly self-assured.

"You’re humanity’s first Tier Three Life Form! You represent the direction of perfect evolution. Your body shape, your proportions—everything is perfect!"

"Why wouldn’t I copy the best available design? Did you want me to build some oversized oval? Besides, human mechanical Mechas need to be bulky to house the massive energy sources required to operate their heavy mechanical bodies..."

"A Life Form doesn’t need that. Its Energy needs are less than a fifth of a mechanical body of the same size. A single Tier Two Zerg Egg can power it in combat for an hour."

"A truly perfect biological weapon!"

Lin Feng rolled his eyes at Ling Yi’s shameless self-promotion.

"Alright, alright, just make it move."

"We’re in a hurry to retreat."

Ling Yi snapped her fingers. The seven-meter-tall giant Biological Mecha slowly cracked open at the chest, its two rows of ribs parting to reveal a two-cubic-meter cockpit inside.

Lin Feng’s brow furrowed slightly.

"Can’t you control it externally?"

Ling Yi pointed to the golden skull still exposed on the Mecha’s back.

"It would take at least ten days to half a month to reshape that hard bone and integrate it into the biological body. You want me to try and break it with my bare hands?"

Lin Feng’s mouth twitched. He stared at Ling Yi for a moment, but ultimately held back and walked to the Mecha, lying down inside the cockpit in its chest.

Inside the fleshy cockpit, thigh-thick ribs formed a cage of gleaming white bone. Paired with the blood-red membranes and masses of writhing blood vessels, it had the terrifying feel of a flesh-and-blood Hell.

Fortunately, Lin Feng was still wearing his Golden Armor—a full suit that enclosed his entire body, so he didn’t have to make direct, intimate contact with all the gore...

Otherwise, the close-quarters contact, the sticky mucus secreted by the membranes, would have been indescribably strange and uncomfortable.

However, just as Lin Feng was nervously holding his breath...

Suddenly, he heard:

"Take off your Battle Armor’s helmet and Face Armor. It would be best to retract the entire armor. That’s the only way for the neural link to sync up and achieve a seamless fusion with the Mecha."

Ling Yi’s muffled voice called out from beyond the wall of flesh...

Frowning, Lin Feng retracted his helmet and Face Armor. Immediately, a multitude of tiny neural tentacles grew from the surrounding flesh, covering his cheeks and the back of his neck to sense the electrical signals of his nervous system.

The giant Biological Mecha’s head then seemed to come alive. After mirroring Lin Feng’s ferocious expression, its large eyes, filled with hexagonal crystals, slowly opened.

At the same time, Lin Feng, inside the Mecha, could now clearly see a 360-degree, unobstructed view of the outside.

A system notification immediately appeared before his eyes:

「Detecting unknown external biological system...」

「Analyzing threat and operability levels...」

「Analysis complete.」

「Biological Mecha Lv. 33/39, Golden Item」

「Remnant foreign brain cells may cause unknown threats and uncontrollable behavior...」

「Insufficient authority to purge!」
