   Chapter 20 Invasive Neuromodification

Gao Gong's body slammed into a tree, losing 11 HP, gritted his teeth, and hammered the tree with his backhand. The microcomputer's Jihu's chainsaw mode was turned on. , finally reducing his speed and letting him stumble to the ground.

   However, the senior engineer did not show any smugness, but looked solemnly at the reaper leader in mid-air.

The   radiation storm did show signs of weakening, but it didn't go away, indicating that the Reaper leader wasn't completely dead.

   Among the several question marks on the other side, there is definitely a [Headless Person] characteristic.

  Headless: Except for the radiant energy source, this mechanical biochemical beast does not have any vital organs

   "What are you doing! Shoot!"

   The roar of the senior engineer woke up the remaining members of the Cable Tribe, and sporadic gunshots sounded immediately.

   Even if the opponent does not die, the remaining HP will not exceed 200 points. As long as the final counterattack is blocked, it can definitely be killed.

However, something unexpected happened. The mother's reaper, relying on the pheromone induction between the husband and wife, suddenly appeared behind the seriously injured person. Four biological sickles stabbed out like lightning and inserted into its body. The biological sickle On the 'back of the knife', small round holes opened, madly absorbing the essence of her husband.

  The surface of the Matriarch's body was visibly reddened.

   It is said that after mating, the female praying mantis will eat her mate as food.

   looks very environmentally friendly.

   seems to be like this.

The male reaper's body gradually withered, and the radiation storm disappeared visibly to the naked eye. Then the female commander suddenly opened his mouth, and an unpleasant low-frequency noise came out of his mouth, and then left without looking back, leaving three reapers. After a moment of hesitation, he also got into the deep forest and disappeared.

   Only a shriveled body was smashed down from the air.

  [The task has been completed, the task reward is being calculated...]

  [Quest rewards have been issued]

  The senior engineer sat on the ground, grinning, staring at the series of rewards brushed out on the system panel.

  Experience: 9440——Basic reward 6500+700[Cable tribe survived 17 people]+160[Baby Reaper*2]+480[Adult Reaper*4]

   Cable Tribe Favor (Friendly) [500/1800]

  Remarks: You are a friend of the tribe, and your suggestion will be seriously considered by the tribe

  You open the area reputation: 200【Desert Hawker】

  Desert Hawker: As a veteran hunter, the near-death experience did not frustrate your lofty aspirations, the machine casts the body, and the distortion burns the fighting spirit.

   Specialization Points +1

   incomplete mechanical puzzle [1/5]

  ‘It’s not easy, I finally got specialization points. If I don’t change careers, I’m afraid that upgrading skills is the only way to quickly strengthen them. ’

   Specialization points are skill points that can exceed the upper limit of skills.

The    senior engineer did not hesitate to fully upgrade [Brawl], and then put this specialization point into [Brawl].

  [You raise the brawl to lv10]

  [Fighting has been raised to lv10max, entering the advanced state of skills, please choose your advanced skills - fighter, low-level gunfighting, dark night warrior]

   Fighter is an enhanced version of fighting, taking the tank route, while low-level gunfighting is the skill of 'man and gun', which is a melee output flow, and Night Warrior is undoubtedly an assassination style.

  The high-level engineer hesitated between the low-level gunfighting skills and the night warrior.

The skill of gunfighting is actually very suitable for mechanical transformation, not to mention the tricky operation of hiding a gun under the crotch. Even with ordinary transformation, the body of a senior engineer can at least be equipped with seven or eight firearms organs, and even the spine can be transformed into Folding machine gun.

   It’s just that the output of this thing is okay, but the explosion is not good.

   Moreover, if you want to carry out human transformation of firearms, the rate of mechanical transformation will inevitably skyrocket.

   cannot affect a major event for an advanced skill.

  [You choose the advanced skill: Night Warrior]

  [You upgrade Night Warrior to lv2]

  [You upgrade the Night Warrior to lv3]

  [You upgrade the Night Warrior to lv4]

  Night Samurai lv4 (advanced): When using a sword, the attack power is +20%, the attack speed of using a sword is increased by 18%, and using a sword combo has a 15% chance to apply the bleeding effect

  Additional status: binge drinking, sneaking

  Guzzle: Use a sword to apply a bleed effect to an enemy, increasing the attack power by 5% (up to 10 stacks)

   Stealth: Reduces the chance of being spotted by 10% while hiding, and increases the one-hit kill rate against unsuspecting targets

In an instant, countless combat experiences jumped out of Gao Gong's mind. In a trance, he seemed to be an ancient killer, holding a sharp blade, walking in the darkness, killing again and again, blood dancing wildly, soul trembling , Under the pale moonlight, the blade dancer indulges in the art of killing.

   "Would you like to—"

   The senior engineer suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were as calm as a secluded lake, and there were countless corpses soaked in the lake.

"what!"

  The girl from the Cable Tribe screamed, her mind went blank, and for some reason, she just stared at each other, but she felt death pouring down her head like cold water.

   "Ah what, isn't it just asking you to send water? Did you bully her?"

  Huang Yuanli looked down at the senior worker sitting under the tree, akimbo, this was one of the few opportunities for her to look down at each other.

  The light in Gao Gong's eyes faded, and he showed a handsome and sunny smile, "I'm sorry, my body is full of blood and I scared you."

   The girl's face turned slightly red and she shook her head.

   She is also an aboriginal, and her height is about the same as Huang Yuanli, but the tumor is not on the eyelids, but on the forehead, like Erlang who has not opened his eyes.

   There are no cute little women.

  The senior engineer took the water and asked, "The radiation needles I brought are only five or six needles, so they are not enough."

   "It's alright, you are the people of our cable tribe who eat dry rice. We will prepare herbs to reduce radiation. Here, you have what you have."

  Gao Gong bowed his head, the cup was green herbal water, a smell of rotten leaves.

   "Forget it, it looks like you know you don't want to drink. Come with me, Professor Han is looking for you."

  Huang Yuanli led the way in front, and the senior engineer followed behind. All the cable tribe members who met on the road, both men and women, showed gratitude to the senior engineer.

   Without the help of senior engineers, in all likelihood, this wave of them will be wiped out.

   "Hey, didn't you say anything? Everyone is thanking you!" Huang Yuanli said dissatisfied.

   "Oh," the senior engineer said calmly.

   "Humph," Huang Yuanli thought for a while, and then whispered: "Professor Han is an elder of our tribe. He has a lot of good things in his hands. You can ask him if you have any questions."

   "But it must be fast. It's best before we go back. Our first elder is very stingy, and maybe he will not talk."

kindness? In the impression of the senior engineer, it was the great elder who asked Huang Yuanli to keep in touch with him, while this Professor Han was against it.

  The senior engineer thought about it and said, "I really have a problem."

"what is the problem?"

   "Is the right of first night still popular in your tribe?"

   Huang Yuanli's eyes slowly widened, the blush on her face spread from her head to her neck, she suddenly bit her angrily.

   "It's never been popular!!??"

   "Just kidding, don't get excited, don't get excited," the senior engineer shook Huang Yuanli on the back of his hand like a towel, and smiled, "You are Professor Han."

   "Hello, young man."

   The light in the cave is very dim, but Professor Han's eyes are unforgettable at first glance, as if the eyes are not on his face, but imprinted in his heart.

  ‘This perception, can control the C-level commander boss, there are 40. ’ The senior engineer squinted his eyes. Monsters appear frequently in the desert, so does Sister Rose, and so does the one in front of him.

However, apart from perception, Professor Han is a very ordinary old man with obvious age spots on his face and poor energy. He looks like he will faint at any time. .

   "Yuan Li, you go out first."

  Huang Yuanli flashed her teeth at Gao Gong, and then she left with a humour, but after he left, Professor Han asked a surprising question.

   "Young man, this knife in your hand was made by Miss Xiang."

The    senior engineer was stunned for a moment, then pulled out the red unicorn with his backhand and handed it over.

   After more than half a month of use, the blade has some pits, and some of the blades are rolled up. Every time this knife cuts, it is metal skin, and the skin of some beasts is even thicker than steel plate.

  Professor Han took the knife with nostalgia and said softly, "Your combat style is a bit like someone I know."

   "Classical mechanical hunters? Are you friends with them?"

"not friend."

  Professor Han suddenly lost his emotions, handed the knife back, and said calmly: "Young man, my knowledge can be passed on to you, but I will give you two choices."

   "First, I will take you back to the tribe, where there are the most abundant scientific research materials and experimental instruments. If you want to learn this knowledge in depth, I can teach you slowly."

   "Second, I will teach you this knowledge now. How much you can understand is up to you."

  The senior engineer said without hesitation, "I choose the second one."

There was a hint of surprise in Professor Han's eyes, but he still nodded and said, "Okay, then listen, I was a researcher in a large-scale scientific research project in the old civilization era. The content of this project is 'bionic technology', and The direction of my research on mechanical modification is 'invasive neuromodification'..."

  [You are taught the professional knowledge "Invasive Neurotransformation Technology", the learning progress is 1%...2%...]

  It took two days for Professor Han to impart this professional knowledge.

  【Invasive Neural Transformation Technology】lv1: Implantation and Connection of Dynamic Neural Networks

  The senior engineer now finally understands why the other party can control the metal sparrows, and even make the sparrows speak human words. It is not because the sparrows have improved their IQ, but their dynamic nerves have been modified to make them scream in the way of "human speech".

   This occupational knowledge is undoubtedly useful, at least with it, the advanced engineer does not need the head of an artificial soldier as a brain.

   He can directly modify the nervous system of the mechanical biochemical beast.

   And that 'bionic technology', in all likelihood, is the professional knowledge chain of this professional knowledge superior.

  Mechanical transformation, human body application, there is a bit of mechanical conversion to carbon-based feeling.

   As we all know, carbon-based civilization and mechanical civilization have always been a pair of enemies who love and kill each other.

  Carbon-based turn-machine, that is, turning a human into a robot, is not uncommon.

   But conversely, it is not surprising to transform machine life into human-like civilization.

Isn't    android the best example.
