Infinite Sun in the East China Sea

Chapter 187 Some preparations

Before Park Changhao's operation began, Xu Feng used experimenters to demonstrate to him two techniques he had developed based on the Swallow Swallow Fruit.

First up is the upgraded Greatsword transformation surgery.

In the operation designed by Xu Feng, he removed the experimental subject's organs related to transformation while preserving the subject's 'chakra' system, and then used the demon viscera decomposed by the Swallow Swallow Fruit to fill in the new organs using three-dimensional reconstruction technology at the cellular level.

This type of reconstructive surgery is extremely difficult.

Even with the enhanced double A-level Swallow-Swallow Fruit, it still requires very delicate operation to achieve this.

Xu Feng could not perform this kind of surgery relying solely on his own abilities. The once enhanced nano-medical robot was at least half responsible for his ability to achieve this transformation.

This set of props, which is only worth a D-level side story in the eyes of the main god, plays a role far beyond its own value after being combined with the awakened Swallow Swallow Fruit.

The demon cells in the warriors created through this surgery are more closely integrated with themselves, and their starting point is much higher than the original warriors.

Basically, right after completing the transformation, he has physical qualities close to those of a low-level warrior.

——After the transformation, the original warrior trainees have to go through at least two or three years of integration and training before they have the basic physical qualities to become formal warriors. Moreover, most of those trainees often die in the final test.

Among the warriors with rankings in the plot, even the weakest one is considered to be of high level in the original greatsword transformation.

The second technique is the 'screw soldier' transformation surgery.

After knowing that the Donghai team had met the conditions for a team battle, Xu Feng began to prepare for the team battle.

In his opinion, a qualified Samsara team needs to make many preparations for team battles. Among them, preparing props or abilities to protect newcomers in team battles is the most important thing a qualified Samsara team should do... Without such preparation, ordinary members of such a team can easily be wiped out by negative points.

The most appropriate way to accommodate the newcomer is to place him in a space prop or space ability that can accommodate living beings, and have him carried by the strongest member of the team or the core mental controller.

For example, placing newcomers in places like Castle Fruit and Kamui Space.

Xu Feng's Swallow Swallow Fruit can also take in new people in a short period of time, but that will slightly affect his combat effectiveness, so he will not do that unless it is necessary.

The protection he prepared for the newcomers was a mecha.

As we all know, the most vulnerable part of a mecha or power armor is its driver. With the addition of a cockpit that can accommodate a human body, the mechanical structure of the mecha has to undergo a lot of unnecessary deterioration.

So is there a technology that can reduce the negative impact of the human body on the performance of the mecha while allowing the mecha to properly protect the target?
some!

The 'Screw Soldier' transformation can take this into account to some extent.

The so-called "screw soldier" is a concept in the comic "Battle Angel Alita". The human head is cut off and connected to a "screw"-shaped life-support device. Whenever a battle is needed, the "screw soldier" is screwed onto the corresponding mecha.

This can greatly reduce the impact of the fragile human body on the performance of the mecha.

Moreover, the "Screw Soldier" has lost its fragile skin and muscles, and its brain can directly control the mecha through nerves.

In the future, those newcomers will be able to control mechas just like controlling their own hands and feet, and the difficulty will be reduced dramatically.

This modification can improve the newcomer's ability to control the mecha from the level of a Parkinson's patient to the level of an athlete, greatly improving the newcomer's survival rate.

In order to develop the Swallowing Fruit, Xu Feng had previously exchanged a lot of information related to "brain-computer integration". This time, before returning to the world of "Great Sword", he even exchanged a detailed blueprint of a "micro life support device".

With the help of the Swallowing Fruit's ability, it is very easy for Xu Feng to quickly transform a human or other intelligent creature into a 'screw soldier'.

And he showed this ability to Park Chang-ho not in order to transform Park Chang-ho into a 'screw soldier'.

This is in case Park Chang-ho cannot control his urge to awaken.

Although Xu Feng told Park Changhao that this kind of transformation would not turn him into an awakened one, that was just a theory.

What Xu Feng can do is to complete the transformation and prepare all the conditions for Park Changhao to become the 'great sword that will not awaken'. After that, Park Changhao needs to guide the demonic energy to circulate in the three meridians and seven chakras step by step, digest the demonic energy in the demon cells bit by bit, and completely turn it into his own power.

There is a possibility of accidents during this process.

He showed this technique to the little fat boy to tell him that he didn't need to be afraid if an accident happened, just come to the captain, and the captain would cover him.

If you really can't control the evil spirit in your body, you can just take off your head. The captain can guarantee that you will still be alive after your head is cut off, and the greatsword transformation operation does not involve the head. Cutting off your head when you are about to awaken can completely preserve your soul, and you can be a hero again after returning to the main god's space and letting the main god repair it.

——Xu Feng’s preparation was of no use.

Park Chang-ho's transformation went very smoothly.

As he had already activated his gene lock, it was much easier for him to control the demonic energy than most novice greatsword masters. It only took him half a day to master most of the basic uses of the demonic energy.

After a simple test, Xu Feng determined that this little fat man was a defensive greatsword with strong recovery ability.

Currently, it is possible to regenerate a complete arm or leg. As long as the internal organs other than the heart are not severely damaged, they can be repaired by consuming demonic energy.

After the transformation, his strength and speed were improved.

When not releasing his demonic energy, Park Changhao's speed can reach 100 meters in 5 seconds; after releasing his demonic energy, depending on the amount of demonic energy released, his maximum speed can gradually increase from 100 meters in 3 seconds to about 100 meters in 1 second.

After a simple test, Xu Feng took Park Changhao to the organization's headquarters.

Next, the little fat man needs to use the method of demonic energy synchronization to quickly master the advanced capabilities of the greatsword and learn the signature skills of the greatsword.

——Before Xu Feng looked for an instructor for the fat boy, he first worked as a doctor and used the ability of the Swallow-Swallow Fruit to heal the scars on the chest and abdomen of all the greatswords and trainees. Ahem, this treatment was just a temporary solution that used the Swallow-Swallow Fruit to reconstruct muscles and skin.

But even so, it once again greatly enhanced his reputation among the great swordsmen.

Even if these great swordsmen did not obey his orders, they would probably not refuse as long as his requests were not excessive.

As for such a small matter as teaching the little fat boy to master the demonic energy, the big swords agreed very readily and did not even consider such a thing as a condition for repaying Xu Feng.

Out of curiosity, these warriors tested the strength of the newly born male greatsword. According to Galadia and Miria's evaluation, the fat boy's strength in normal state is probably between 30th and 40th place.

And when he unlocks his gene lock, his strength can reach the level of more than ten people.

This strength has already surprised the discerning swordsmen - Park Changhao's transformation time is too short! A day ago, this little fat man was just a human.

The demonic energy in his body has not yet had much impact on his body. Even his hair has not turned golden because of the demonic energy and is still black.

If he is given a few more months to adapt to the demonic energy and learn one or two sword techniques, he will be able to possess combat power at the single-digit level.

He even has the potential to become the No. 1 fighter!

After a simple transformation, the fat boy Park Changhao's combat effectiveness in the Donghai team is second only to Xu Feng and Tifa.

Although Shoko has strengthened her BUG-level ability of telekinesis, she still has not activated her genetic lock. If she fights with the fat guy who has already activated his genetic lock, Shoko will definitely not be the fat guy's opponent unless the distance between them is very far at the beginning.

In Xu Feng's eyes, Park Changhao's matter has come to an end, and he will focus his energy on other places in the future.

For example, prepare some large-scale cannon fodder for team battles.

In Park Chang-ho's eyes, he is still receiving the captain's care.

Due to the influence of the Reincarnationists, the awakened people on this continent are almost extinct, and the demons are the reserve resources of the East China Sea team. Park Changhao lacks opponents even when he wants to train.

Xu Feng prepared a group of very suitable combatants for him.

—The Destroyer droid from Star Wars.

To be precise, it is a robot 'cannon fodder' developed by Xu Feng based on the Destroyer robot in Star Wars.

This "cannon fodder" robot has two forms: one is a unicycle form that can move quickly, and the other is a robot form that fights in complex environments.

Compared with the original Destroyer robot, Xu Feng's version of the Destroyer robot uses stronger materials, has improved power, and is equipped with more weapons, which makes this version of the Destroyer faster and has more complex attack methods.

Unfortunately, because Xu Feng has not yet squeezed out too much time and energy to spend on these "cannon fodder", these robots are still only using ordinary gunpowder weapons.

Xu Feng is preparing weapons for these robots based on the exchanged information. For example, he is preparing the "blasters" that they should have been equipped with. In addition to energy weapons such as blasters, he also plans to equip these robots with live ammunition weapons such as "grenade guns".

The enemies that reincarnationists face in the reincarnation world are very complex. Some enemies may be good at resisting energy weapons, but not so resistant to live ammunition weapons, while others are the opposite.

Preparing more weapons can significantly increase the attack power of these 'cannon fodder' robots.

In addition, Xu Feng is also reverse-engineering the technological version of the energy shield from the Lord God. In the previous game, he mastered the knowledge of exchanging parts from the Lord God to assemble that kind of protective shield, which can reduce the price of the protective shield from 1500 points and a D-level side story required for direct exchange to only points.

Now that the Swallow-Swallow Fruit has been upgraded to Double A rank, he plans to go a step further and reverse engineer that protective shield.

He currently has two goals. The first goal is to further reduce the price of the protective shield and gradually replace the parts from the main god with parts that can be synthesized with the Swallow Swallow Fruit. The initial goal is to reduce the cost of a protective shield to less than ten points.

It would be best if we could mass-produce that level of protective shield using materials from the story world.

In this way, he can install energy shields on those "destroyer robots" that can withstand bullets, which can further improve the combat capabilities of these "cannon fodder".

The second goal is to change the power supply method of the protective shield and make it larger.

The D-level protective shield exchanged from the Lord God is only the size of a palm, and the fission battery block it uses is only the size of an ordinary pistol magazine.

Therefore, the protective effect of this energy armor is very poor. Twenty to thirty consecutive shots from ordinary firearms can deplete the energy in the shield.

Xu Feng plans to enlarge the shield and install it on the mecha, and by the way, change the shield's energy source to a small reactor inside the mecha. The principles used by the fission battery block and the small reactor are similar, but just like the Xiaomi 15 and Xiaomi SU7, which are both powered by lithium batteries, can store very different amounts of electricity, the energy that can be provided by the fission battery block and the small reactor is not at the same level at all.

If he could complete this transformation, the defensive capability of the mediocre D-level technological shield could probably be improved to a level comparable to C-level or even double C-level.

Because after Xu Feng returned to this world, he spent most of his time on "cultivation", and currently these... are just plans.

He originally expected to complete these reverse engineering tasks with the help of the Swallow-Swallow Fruit within 180 days of redemption.

However, there was an "accident" in the plan, and there would probably be more "accidents" in the future that would consume his time and energy. Making cannon fodder and improving their strength were only relatively unimportant things. Xu Feng estimated that after this exchange, he could probably only complete the most basic part of the research.

To truly perfect these "cannon fodder" to the level of "being useful" in his mind, he would have to wait for more time.

In order to find a suitable opponent for Park Changhao, so that this little fat boy could feel dangerous after becoming a greatsword, and further open the gene lock, Xu Feng took out the earliest version of the "Destroyer Robot".

The initial version of the Destroyer robot was very weak, and in a one-on-one combat, the little fat man could easily dismantle the robot.

But the so-called "cannon fodder" is because they are very cheap and there are very many of them.
Every time the little fat man trains, he has to face the siege of hundreds of "Destroyer" robots. These robots are very agile, with tactical coordination between advance and retreat, and their comprehensive firepower is comparable to that of a combined battalion.

As they rolled, they beat the little fat man so hard that he suffered terribly. Often, only one or two robots used as bait would be needed to seriously injure the little fat man.

After each training session, several kilograms of bullets could be squeezed out of the seriously injured Park Changhao's body.

Through repeated combat training, Park Changhao's combat ability improved rapidly. Facing siege, he no longer fought solely on his instincts, but began to use his brain to make use of the surrounding terrain and developed combat skills that could play to his advantage.

While recovering from his injuries, he consulted Phantom Miriya, trying to learn Miriya's technique - the 'Phantom Sword' which could instantly burst out demonic energy and increase its speed to an extremely fast level.

Unfortunately, the 'destroyer robots' are also evolving.

Park Chang-ho uses the Destroyer robot as a sparring partner, unleashing his potential in the face of danger.

Xu Feng is also using Park Changhao to collect experience from the Destroyer Robot when fighting against powerful creatures... After all, most of the tactics known to humans are created to deal with ordinary creatures, and most of the enemies that the Reincarnators need to face are not ordinary.

Fed by large amounts of data, the combat methods in the robots' databases are constantly changing.

Therefore, Park Chang-ho's growing strength has not changed his current situation.
