I Have A Game Clone - Chapter 273

273 Mechanical Life (2)

“The origin planet is not the origin planet of humans. Strictly speaking, the origin planet belongs to all the living beings on the origin planet. The development of any living group is the same for the origin planet.

“It cannot be said that humans had regressed and that the other animals, plants, and other biological groups had improved. It can also be said that the entire origin planet has regressed.

“The big explosion was fair. All living beings were exposed to the radiation elements.

“Plants and animals in nature quickly mutated into radioactive creatures with better adaptability.

!!
“Only a small number of humans became radioactive people, and a small number of people were immune to the damage of radiation elements and became so-called savages.

“More people were still living in the areas that were not affected by the big explosion and where the radiation elements were extremely thin to reproduce human civilization.

“Everyone will develop their own. For the entire origin planet, this is essentially a path of diverse development.”

There was still the second half of Ning Shi’s words. From the perspective of the ordinary humans who lived on the origin planet before the big explosion, the big explosion was a complete human tragedy.

The explosion destroyed everything, and the entire continent was plunged into misery.

Ning Shi didn’t say these words out loud. He had already sensed Tong Baiming’s standpoint. Tong Baiming firmly believed that the big explosion would bring more benefits than disadvantages.

There was no need for him to spoil Tong Baiming’s mood.

As expected, Tong Baiming was very happy when he heard Ning Shi’s words. He didn’t even care that the glasses on his nose bridge had fallen off. He echoed, which was rare, “That’s right. For radioactive creatures, the big explosion is the origin of their civilization.”

“As for radioactive creatures, they are also good news for those of us who walk the path of developing the body’s potential. Do you know why more than 90% of the surface area of the origin planet is occupied by radioactive creatures?

“This is because a Level 7 radioactive creature can use its body to fight against a beginner mecha, while a Level 8 radioactive creature can fight against an intermediate mecha!

There were tens of thousands of Level 7 radioactive creatures on the origin planet. Humans could not afford to offend them.

Therefore, humans could only defend themselves in a corner of the origin planet and hold on.

“As for Level 9 radioactive creatures, I don’t know if there are any on the origin planet, but I believe that there are definitely Level 9 radioactive creatures in the vast universe.

“This is because the explosion of the helium mine had caused the radiation to spread. It was not only the origin planet but also many planets in the universe.

“Level 9 radioactive creatures definitely exist, and they can definitely fight against advanced mechas!”

The strength of the radioactive creature that Tong Baiming mentioned was similar to Ning Shi’s previous speculation. According to Ning Shi’s previous speculation, the physique of a Level 7 radioactive creature was between 45-50 points, and Level 8 was between 50-55 points.

With such a high physique, coupled with the almost insane defense of the radioactive creatures, it was indeed enough to fight against a mecha.

Of course, these numbers were just Ning Shi’s speculations. The actual situation might be slightly different from his speculations.

Tong Baiming suddenly walked towards Tong Qingqing, reached out his hand, and stroked her head, muttering, “When I returned to Yuan City after attending the traditional fighters competition, I wanted to combine mechanical modification with the development of human potential.

“In the beginning, I thought that helium ores were the driving force of human civilization and placed all my hopes on helium energy. I studied hard for five years and invented the technology to fuse helium ores into human limbs.

“Tong Tong was my proudest creation at that time. She has a Helium Heart in her body that can continuously strengthen her body.

“However, I soon discovered the drawbacks of the helium ore modification method.

“Firstly, the success rate is too low. I’ve performed more than 1000 cases of Helium Heart surgery, and only Tong Tong survived until now. The others all had various rejection reactions and eventually died.

“The success rate of surgeries such as helium arms and helium bones will be higher, but the overall success rate will not exceed 5%.

“Secondly, the cost is high. Helium ores are expensive, to begin with. In addition to the various auxiliary materials that have to be prepared for the modification surgery, the cost of each surgery is at least ten million Yuan coins, which was not conducive to its promotion.

“The last point, which was also the most crucial point, is that the helium ore modification mode is the same as other mechanical modifications. There is a limit to one’s strength.

“For example, Tong Tong’s heart was fused with a fingernail-sized helium ore. Then, the maximum limit of her strength will not exceed the total amount of the fingernail-sized helium ore.

“Moreover, as time passes, the energy of the helium ore in her heart will continue to deplete, and the upper limit of her personal strength will continue to decrease.

“This is not the result I want.”

Tong Baiming retracted his palm and sighed, “It is very difficult for us immune people to survive in the wild. Due to the lack of a complete industrial system, we are unable to produce mecha.

“Relying solely on the technology of mechanical modification, we can only limit our range of activity as much as possible and not provoke powerful opponents.

“This is because there had never been a group of people who are immune to the high-end power of a mecha.

“The current Yuan City seems to be flourishing, but in fact, as long as the Norse Republic casually sends out a few mecha warriors, they can destroy us.

“My goal is to invent a body modification technique whereby the success rate of the modification is not low, and the cost of promoting it is not high. Moreover, the upper limit of the development is high enough, or even without an upper limit. At the very least, it has to be able to resist mechas.

“After the failure of the helium ore model, I turned my attention to the radioactive creatures.

“Since a Level 7 radioactive creature can fight against a mecha, what if I combine the body of a human and the body of a radioactive creature and modify it in the direction of a radioactive creature?”
