Wow! The item-dropping rate is really high!

"?"

(?)

"Figure it out yourself, I don't have time anymore."

The communication signal in the earpiece was once again devoured by the electronic demon inhabiting the body of the ancient most powerful warrior, and one of the two soldiers responsible for going to the power room to figure out how to start the reactor for power supply had already run back.

"The reactor has been started, ready to supply power at any moment!"

Bai E hastened his pace.

There were many mainframes; about half of them had red lights, but not many served as nodes. As one node mainframe after another switched from red to green, Likok waved to Bai E and shouted, "It's ready, supply the power!"

Bai E also finished the last task on his hands—

"Open the gates!"

The spirited voice instantly echoed throughout the entirety of the mainframe room!

"Received!"

"Buzz~"

The electric current surged through the cables that had been idle for a long time, and the self-test startup sounds of the devices being powered on echoed in the mainframe room.

"Thump thump thump thump thump thump..."

The large lights on the ceiling of the hall lit up one by one in rows, and the soft white light shone into everyone's eyes, causing visible discomfort to the warriors who suddenly transitioned from dim light to brightness.

Taking advantage of the situation, the pixelated people controlled by the electronic demon launched a sneak attack, and in an instant, several figures spewed blood and were thrown out.

However, a part of the Origin that was still housed in the core of the mainframe cluster received support from the computational power of the rebooted mainframe cluster. Due to some strange effect, it was also unable to resist this acceleration.

The slow transcription that had continued for 439 years suddenly sped up at this moment, causing its body to be suddenly still and unable to move on the spot.

The mosaic space enveloping its body also began to change rapidly, with an endless stream of data materializing within it, filled with metaphysical expressions incomprehensible to normal humans.

"Ah!"

An agonized scream suddenly rose from behind everyone, as the human Spiritual Energy practitioner Pansen, who recklessly tried to analyze the data stream with Spiritual Energy, instantly had his will collapsed by the nearly endless data stream.

For a mere human consciousness to try to connect to a data stream capable of supporting a global network was undoubtedly like an egg hitting a rock; it was like a drop of water merging into the ocean, almost without causing a ripple.

The only thing dissolving was the drop of water itself.

Twisting trails of crimson blood snakes slowly flowed out from the eyes, ears, mouth, and nose of the Spiritual Energy practitioner Pansen...

Bleeding from the seven orifices.

"B27! B27!"

"Can't save him."

Bai E replied truthfully.

The matters of the Spiritual Energy realm were not something he could interfere with; it was entirely dependent on the fate of the Spiritual Energy practitioner himself.

And looking at the way the Spiritual Energy wielder's vitality was drained, Bai E even felt an urge to give him another shot, better to be killed off by his own "lucky strike" anyway.

Opportunities to take down a Spiritual Energy wielder... were not many.

After only a glance, General Gregory moved his gaze away; the realm of a Spiritual Energy wielder was always filled with unknown risks.

Opportunity and danger often went hand in hand, and the margin between falling into decay or ascending through enhancement could sometimes be as thin as a single thought.

The number of Spiritual Energy wielders in the army was always extremely low, not only because of the army itself, but because the risks borne by Spiritual Energy wielders in human society often corresponded directly to their abilities.

At times, matters related to Spiritual Energy could be more addictive to Spiritual Energy wielders than drugs, leading them to their own destruction like moths to a flame.

This was the fate of all Spiritual Energy wielders.

It wasn't something he could decide.

Instead, the pixelated beings undergoing unknown transformations... those said to be the real form of the "electronic demon," were currently the greatest enemy.

The electronic demon's rebellion had been 439 years ago. The past dangers had been passed down to this day only in bits and pieces of records, and what he could see was only a small fraction of those.

The specific strengths and capabilities were unclear; the unknown... that was the most nerve-wracking situation.

"..."

"Huh~"

The sky full of mosaics were absorbed in an instant like mist, and the true face of the "ancient strongest warrior" appeared before everyone for the first time.

Tall and handsome, his body, modified by countless bioengineering surgeries, showed the most perfect human proportions possible.

Every muscle seemed to be flawlessly designed, bare and perfectly defined.

[??? (Human/???) (Chaotic) (Elite) —— Using "lucky strike" to kill can drop: Guaranteed (Fresh Meat*1000, Bio-Parts*250, 2500 combat experience points); High Probability (Specialization: Weapon Master, Trait: Resilient Mind); Possible (Trait: Bioengineered Body (bound "Trait: Three-heads-one-pig"), Trait: Resistance to Death)]

Changes in the drop rate appeared before Bai E's eyes: less experience, the skill—Digital Domain was also gone.

Reasonable, given that the previous target of 1 million experience points didn't seem like it was meant to be killed...

"Is this a human body?" As if it had never been seen before, the being extended its right hand and turned the palm up at a 30-degree angle to inspect it.

"This is... truly marvelous!" The voice had barely fallen when the body ran towards a corridor not far away.

Run!

The detestable human will within was blocking its true essence, and until the human will dissipated, it could not freely switch between being a human soul or a mere electromagnetic wave. If it were to die with a human body as a human soul... that would be a true death.

When a god descends to the mundane, the god is no longer invincible.

Let's not talk about how it was unarmed now; even if it had weapons, it wouldn't bother to fight over pride with these human warriors.

As long as the original will of this body was worn away, the wide world would be its kingdom!

"Fire!" Flames of intense fury ignited in Gregory's eyes.

A demon? A few regiments?

An electronic demon? After obtaining a physical form, it still had to face a barrage of bullets upon meeting.

The soldiers who had been waiting with guns at the ready instantly pulled their triggers, no longer concerned about the damage to the main server room; their most urgent mission was to thoroughly exterminate this electronic demon that had blocked human technology for 439 years.

No matter how formidable the "ancient strongest warrior," in the face of several machine guns, it was still nothing more than a lump of meat.

However, the trait of Resistance to Death allowed it, even with a body torn apart, even with bullets hitting vital spots, to cling to the last drop of blood awaiting possible rescue.

The mature bioengineering of ancient technology provided those bio-warriors with unparalleled combat abilities.

But now, there were no comrades, no rescue.

There was only Bai E, approaching, with the dark muzzle of his handgun.

["Lucky strike" initiated.]

"Bang!"
