Chapter 934 - 40: Bloodline of the High-dimensional Demon

Chapter 934: Chapter 40: Bloodline of the High-dimensional Demon

This level of cellular adjustment is not difficult to replicate for Gao Gong, whose body itself is a ’biological computer’.

In other words, with a single comprehensive health checkup like this, Gao Gong can perform his own health maintenance.

This is the path to enhancement for advanced carbon-based species.

Soon, under one fierce stimulation after another, tendrils of flame began to emerge from Gao Gong’s skin, with strands of bioelectric light mixed in, exuding a strong pressure, sweeping the surroundings.

Vervi instinctively stepped back, and as a fellow carbon-based species, he could deeply feel the opponent’s strength. Such overwhelming pressure, akin to a civilization fleet, he had experienced only from his first master, the head of the Shrek Star Thief Gang!

The leader, known as the monster of the star system, held a notorious reputation even years after his death.

’It should be close enough by now,’ he thought silently.

But Vervi quickly noticed that besides him, the two women present seemed entirely unfazed by this powerful pressure.

If it was Du Zhaodi, he was not surprised as mechanical species are generally weaker in sensing life magnet fields.

But the woman in front of him, Ms. Huang, also a top executive in the group—

Vervi surreptitiously examined her, and through the magnetic field perception of a tier three species, he could vaguely sense that in front of her, there seemed to be a towering ’giant tree’ firmly locking her from all directions, absorbing any magnetic field that tried to enter.

’What kind of power is this? So strong!’

Vervi was astonished.

Although her ’life form’ seemed somewhat incomplete, in terms of life properties, she seemed not much weaker than his current master.

On the tattoo stage, Gao Gong noticed Vervi’s stunned expression, a hint of a smile flashed on his face.

In the Cyber Tide, Huang Yuanli’s gains were actually no less significant than his own.

The power of the brain-in-a-vat, the shell of the planet tree, these two legacies surpassing planet-level have been inherited by the sole successor.

It’s just that Huang Yuanli cannot yet fully utilize this power.

After all, according to system standards, these bloodline powers are standard tier four.

However, Gao Gong has no plans to provide ’special training’ to her.

Ordinary forces’ strength depends on so-called aces in the hole master and super weapons.

Civilization-level victory, though, relies on the height of the technology tree.

Soon, the ’tattoo’ results were transmitted through the system.

[Following transformation by the Lester Flame Tattoo, your blood volume +3000]

[Following transformation by the Lester Flame Tattoo, your power +15, agility +15, endurance +10, intelligence +5, perception +10]

[Following transformation by the Lester Flame Tattoo, your body underwent primary mutation, changing the form of the life magnet field]

A potent life force was injected into Gao Gong’s body.

This is usually something he injects into others.

As the ’tattooing’ finished, Gao Gong’s body was covered in an intricate and strange set of red markings. On this pattern, the life magnet field turned into flames and burned fervently, making it feel as if some high-dimensional flame demon had descended.

"Calm down, the ship’s energy alarms are going to go off," Du Zhaodi frowned and said.

"Alright."

Gao Gong took a deep breath, the flames inhaled into his body, leaving only complex and peculiar red tattoos covering his whole body, which made Gao Gong furrow his brow.

’Finally absorbed so many S-Level Radiation Beast bloodlines to return to human form, only for a surgery turning me back into a flamboyant guy, which isn’t good.’

With a thought, Vervi’s vision blurred, and in a daze, he seemed to see primitive life soup stretching out before him, and just a single wave of it drained half his energy.

When he recovered, he felt utterly exhausted and strongly sleepy, while Gao Gong’s body no longer bore the unique tattoos of the Lester clan.

In terms of bloodline, even complete Lester bloodline might not compare to tier four ’Sea of Life’. For Gao Gong, digesting such tattoos was no harder than absorbing those S-Level Beast King bloodlines before.

"Interesting."

Gao Gong opened his palm, and a cluster of flames appeared in his palm.

Like other advanced carbon-based species, Gao Gong’s life magnet field manifests as bioelectricity materializing, which can transform into a lightning storm when fully unleashed.

Now, though, the form subtly changed, visually transforming into ’flames’.

Although there was no difference in nature, the change in appearance was already quite intriguing.

With the powerful computational power of the ’biological computer’, his bodily data was soon fully displayed.

’Cells have enlarged by a tenth, intercellular distance reduced by a third, and number of carbon atoms increased, presenting a marvelous linkage.’

Gao Gong looked up at Vervi, curiously asking:

"Do you know which force stands behind Lester’s Red-skinned People?"

Vervi shook his head.

"As far as I know, Lester has no backing."

"No backing, not a cat’s paw?"

"No."

"Interesting, if there’s no backing, could it really be the bloodline of ’High-dimensional Demon’?"

High-dimensional demons are called ’demon’ because of their ’bloodline mutability’. Whether it be carbon-based species or mechanical life, once contaminated by ’demon blood’, their bloodlines undergo uncontrollable mutations.

Such mutations can’t be absorbed even by advanced carbon-based species.

In the cosmos, this has already become a significant ’scientific dilemma’.

One theory is that the high-dimensional demon’s body is a unique ’life dimension’, where infected organisms act as individual space coordinates, endlessly infused with mutant energy.

Another theory is that high-dimensional demons are a ’special type of carbon-based species’, due to ’carbon fusion’, incapable of merging with ’basic carbon’.

Regardless, its mutability is universally recognized.

Yet, Gao Gong doesn’t worry about such ’mutations’ polluting his bloodline.

Because according to biological computer’s calculations, even if Lester’s Red-skinned people truly have ’High-dimensional Demon’ bloodline, it’s already diluted beyond influence, lacking destructive properties.

"Vervi, you go back and rest."

The unfolding of the ’Sea of Life’ bears some resemblance to the ’Soul-Draining Skill’, easily absorbing surrounding life magnets.

Seeing Vervi looking fatigued, Gao Gong said.

Vervi opened his mouth as if to speak, but his eyes showed a cunning and profound glint. Without saying anything, he bowed and left.

"That old star thief isn’t trustworthy," Huang Yuanli suddenly said.

"I know."

Gao Gong nodded.

In fact, no star thief is worthy of trust. Betraying colleagues and sponsors is as simple as eating and drinking.

Especially since Gao Gong hasn’t placed any insurance on him, like installing ’employee safety software’, or implanting a ’hidden loyal dog personality’.

So Huang Yuanli’s distrust is justified.

But unbeknownst to Huang Yuanli, countless memory worms crawled through the void, through the biological magnetic field, even through the physical realm, into the depths of Vervi’s memory.

Soon enough, this old star thief would be thoroughly converted into his own ally.

And this process was beyond even his own perception.

What Vervi had wanted to say but didn’t, Gao Gong already knew.

’The legacy of Monster Shrek, the heritage of the most powerful star thief in the Robert Star System—is it really your own Onepiece as well?’
