640 Synthesis, coupling, transformation!
The system sent out another notification that the hive had been absorbed.
This time, link didn’t hesitate. He grabbed the hive and started absorbing.
The Scarab tattoo on his body began to resonate, and the gold accessory in his hand collapsed. The energy and material of the hive fragment were all absorbed by the Scarab on his arm.
Link felt as if his arm was being stung by thousands of tiny bugs. Even with his current strength, he couldn’t resist it.
fortunately, the unbearable feeling came and went quickly. the itchiness and itchiness soon receded like a tide. link let out a long breath and felt that the connection between him and his pet had deepened.
[ congratulations, you have completed 20% of the mission [ Heart of the Swarm ]. You have received 1000000 experience points, 50 potential points, unlocked the talent [ swarm affinity ], and unlocked a higher level of hive expansion form-intelligent mechanical bugs. ]
[ it has been detected that you are in the state of [ blessing of the knowledge altar ]. The experience gained has been doubled. The final experience gained is 2000000. ]
Lin Ke looked at the new terms and rewards and was extremely tempted to see what they were. However, his rationality still prevailed, and he suppressed his excitement. He also completed the a-rank chain Mission [ John’s request ].
[ you have completed the a-rank chain mission [ john’s request ]. your performance in the mission was rated ‘excellent’. you have received double the mission reward. ]
[ you have received 1000000 experience points, mimicry metal (legendary), meteorite (to be appraised) ]
[ it has been detected that you are in the state of [ blessing of the knowledge altar ]. The experience gained has been doubled. The final experience gained is 2000000. ]
[ unlocking the second part of the a-rank chain mission,’the conspiracy of the clues’ ]
[ mission hint: your and John’s journey to the island was extremely dangerous. John feels that The Desert Prince, who is manipulating everything from behind the scenes, is a great threat. He is prepared to investigate any traces of the Prince. ]
[ mission reward: an assessment based on the completion rate of dynamic events ]
Link’s expression turned grim after reading the mission notification.
This Island trip was indeed dangerous. However, the danger did not come from the monsters that appeared, but from the traps set up in the treasure vault.
Through the window, link could still see the pillar-like black clouds rising from the volcanic eruption, forming a huge mushroom in the air. He was still frightened.
If the first part of the main mission was already so exciting, wouldn’t the conspiracy in the second part of the main mission be more dangerous?
Based on the situation they encountered today, it would be difficult for a small team of players to succeed.
However, he put the mission aside for the time being. With The Desert Prince’s ability to deceive even the seven generals, it was unrealistic to find any clues in a short time.
Link quickly focused his attention on his lifeline-the reward for the Zerg synthesis mission.
He did not expect that after absorbing the fragments of the hive, he would be able to directly increase his percentage from 10% to 20%!
Furthermore, to be able to find so many hive fragments on a novice planet like the wasteland was also outrageous.
50 potential points were still very strong for Lin Ke, especially his ultimate skill, Finger of Death. The damage dealt was directly linked to his luck attribute.
if he invested all 50 points into his luck attribute, the damage of finger of death alone would increase by 5000 points!
5,000 points of damage was equivalent to a level up!
Moreover, the Finger of Death could also deal a critical hit, and the critical hit rate was also linked to luck. With a wave of poker and chasing dreams, there was no reason not to.
If the curly-haired baboon saw Link’s current state, it would definitely take a sip of the cabbino and shake its head helplessly.”Dog betting, I’ve been betting on dogs for a long time.”
However, after adding the points, link felt empty.
He did not know when he would get another chance like this with such a generous potential point reward.
The high potential point reward was really limited every time he used it.
Link then looked at his new talent, [ insect affinity ].
[ insect swarm affinity ]: increases insect swarm damage by 10%. Has an affinity effect on insects. All insects will not actively show hostility to you. You can command lower-level insects purely by will.
Link’s eyes brightened. This talent might seem trash, but it was actually very powerful.
Putting aside the direct 10% PET damage, just the fact that all zergs would not actively develop hostility was enough to make Link’s mind flash with fragmented fragments.
Destiny’s world view was extremely vast, and the universe was even more so. Countless races and creatures appeared in the universe. Among them, there were countless types of zergs, and the sub-zergs and those with Zerg bloodlines were as vast as the sea of stars. Some of these zergs had good intentions, while others were naturally hostile to different races. They were docile, violent, and even cunning.
With [ insect affinity ], link could skip all kinds of complicated missions and tests and directly communicate and even trade with all kinds of insects in the universe.
Thinking about it carefully, link remembered that in doomsday echo version 3.0, there was an extremely powerful zergs that had established a pivotal position in the plot. Now that he had the [ insect group affinity ] talent, if he could enter the universe, he would be able to set up many things in advance.
Pulling his thoughts back from the universe, link started focusing on the most important thing. It was the new function of the hive-the intelligent mechanical bugs.
Anyone with some common sense would know that intelligent machines and zergs were two different races. And because of their large numbers and fast evolution speed, people usually called Intelligent Machinery, Zerg, and demons the three major natural disasters of the universe.
These three species were notorious in the universe because of their terrifying adaptability and reproduction ability. Their combat power and destructive power were extremely strong, and they could not be killed completely. They also developed by plundering resources, which could easily affect the balance.
These three creatures reproduced quickly and were powerful, but they evolved in different ways.
Intelligent Machinery was a mechanical life form that was built in batches through a large number of integrated machines.
Zergs relied on their strong vitality and reproductive ability to reproduce in geometric order. They only had one fighting style-a!
Demons were strong because their main bodies were in another distorted void dimension. Death in the real universe dimension could only temporarily erase them, not kill them permanently. Therefore, they had accumulated rich combat experience through constant battles, resulting in many high-level combat forces among the demon race. Often, when they were dispatched, the entire planet would turn into a sea of fire, and not even a blade of grass would grow.
The alien demonic tribe that attacked the wasteland was actually a low-level demonic tribe in the universe. However, even though they considered themselves demons, the proud and tyrannical demons did not acknowledge these ” bastards.
Low-level demons were a hybrid of demons and native creatures of the universe, born through alchemy and reproduction. although it was more suitable for the environment of the universe, it also lost the qualification to enter the distorted void dimension. This also meant that their deaths were direct deaths, and there was no such thing as a second chance. This was also the reason why demons looked down on these lower-class demons.
But now, the Hive’s new ability was called ” intelligent insect race, ” which surprised link.
These two races that were listed as the three great catastrophes had completely different ways of development and life forms. Could it be that the new ability of this ” intelligent machine insect race ” was to take the ability of intelligent machines and add it to the synthetic pets?
Lin Ke curiously opened the pet menu on the system.
Here, other than synthesis and coupling, there was a third section-modification.
He clicked into the [ transformation ] section, and a line of introduction popped up in front of his eyes.
After a long period of development, the Zerg found that they could not occupy any more advantages in their current state, so they began to study the evolutionary route, and thus came up with the concept of ” intelligent machine Zerg. However, at the level of the ‘intelligent mechanical Zerg’, only a portion of Zerg creatures were compatible with the intelligent modification. He hoped that this change would give the Zerg another possibility in the future.
This introduction had a hint of hope, more like the thoughts of a certain Zerg elder.
Link then entered the [ modification ] section and read the instructions carefully.
A few minutes later, link finally finished reading the manual and let out a long sigh.
There were too many professional terms and strict vocabulary in the instruction manual, so he summarized it for the convenience of understanding.
Simply put, the requirements for this [ modification ] were extremely harsh!
not all pets were suitable for modification, and not all the modifications of the ‘intelligent mechanical zerg’ would succeed. However, if he succeeded, he would be able to do two things at once, and the effect of combining the two would be greatly enhanced.
The modification formula was not difficult, similar to the combination of synthesis and coupling.
Zerg creatures + mechanical units, through the enhancement and catalysis of the transformation medium, they form an intelligent Zerg. It had two forms, Zerg creatures and mechanical units.
This meant that the modified creature had to be Link’s pet or a pure Zerg. They also had to meet the transformation requirements, and another batch was filtered out. It could only be said that the new ability he obtained from the hive this time was more demanding, but the effect would probably be more powerful.
The first thing that came to Lin Ke’s mind was the magic steel ants. These creatures had already achieved the ability to have two forms. although it was unremarkable, it was often used as a surprise in link’s battles.
However, the red arrow form of the magic steel ant could only be considered a cold weapon, not an intelligent machine.
Link summoned the magic steel ant. The red arrow flew out of his sleeve and landed in his palm.
The data of the demonic steel ant immediately appeared on the transformation interface, and there was an analysis progress bar below. After a few seconds, the progress bar loaded and gave an opinion-suitable for modification.
Link took out his magic box pistol. Before he could look at it, a formula appeared in the transformation column of the legendary mimicry metal he had just received for completing the mission.
(Magic steel ANT + magic box pistol)/mimicry metal =? (success rate 65%)
The success rate of modification was different from the compatibility rate of synthesis.
The low compatibility rate meant that there were many uncontrollable problems after the pet Fusion. However, the success rate of the modification was just the success rate. if it failed, the pet would still be the same pet and the machine would still be the same. however, the third-party material used as the catalyst would be destroyed.
This way, it wouldn’t be as stable as the synthesis.
No matter how low the compatibility rate was, there was still a chance of having a fused ‘problematic pet’. Furthermore, from Link’s perspective, he had plenty of “problematic pets” on hand. However, for modification, even if the success rate was 99%, there was still a 1% chance of failure. It would be a complete failure.
Link finally realized that compared to synthesis and coupling, this was the real spendthrift!
Link kept reminding himself not to be impulsive when modifying things in the future. Otherwise, he’d be a gambling addict.
After looking at the new function of the Goldfinger, link looked at the updated mission [ Heart of the Swarm ].
As he had completed the 20% progress reward, the progress and reward had changed again.
[ you have triggered the S-rank Mission [ Heart of the Swarm ]. ]
[ establishing mission hint: before the Zerg Queen is sealed, spread the Zerg’s divine weapon, the hive, to all parts of the universe. ] Only by finding all the fragments of the divine artifact could the Empress come again. Every time you find a fragment of a divine artifact, your ability will also improve accordingly! ]
[ current progress: 20% ]
[30[ % stage reward: 2 million experience points, 75 potential points, unlocking event [ Zerg’s Pearl ] (40% of the stage reward will be unlocked upon completion) ]
[ mission completion reward: unlock the [ cosmic disaster ] version and receive the title of ‘Zerg Emperor’. ]
After reading it, he could only say that it was indeed an S-rank mission. The reward for every 10% of the stage was comparable to the main storyline reward. The potential points in particular were given to him as if they were free. They were afraid that Link’s improvement would be slow.
At the same time, the 30% reward piqued Lin Ke’s interest. this time, there were no rewards for upgrading his talent or his cheat. instead, there was an event mission.
Link’s eyes narrowed. I’m afraid the impact of an S-rank mission is no less than a version update, right? ”
After all, link had never personally participated in a mission of this level in his previous life. However, he thought that the influence of a space Zerg-level incident could not be underestimated. When the time came, all the major galaxies and forces in the universe would probably be involved. If he didn’t increase his strength as soon as possible, his words would carry little weight. Even if he activated the event, it would be difficult for him to get a share of the loot.
After looking at the rewards and instructions for the next step of the S-rank mission, link finally set his eyes on the rewards for the wasteland main storyline.
A legendary mimicry metal and a meteorite to be appraised.
Mimicry metal was a rare legendary material in the universe. this metal had many uses. in the entire universe, its properties were among the best. It has a strong resistance to strong magnetic fields, radiation, and corrosion. In addition, due to its special atomic structure, this metal could easily switch between the three states. Because of its special effect, it looked as if it had a life of its own, so it was often called ” biometal.
he had just finished synthesizing the legendary dragon bone, and now he had the mimicry metal. link was overjoyed.
As for the basketball-sized meteorite, it was even more interesting.
Unappraised meant that this item did not appear in the current version.
But now that it was in Link’s hands as a reward, the only thing he could do was to find a higher-leveled creature to identify it after he left the wasteland.
After entering the universe, there would be a lot of uncommon and unidentified materials. In Lin Jie’s previous life, this kind of market that specialized in gathering unidentified materials was very popular among players. When obtaining various unidentified items, some of them needed to trigger a quest to be appraised, while others needed to find an appraiser from a specific civilization. After a round of hard work, they would finally be able to find the answer.
Some people became rich overnight, while some people lost everything.
hence, some players gave this space trade market a vivid name-dog gambling paradise.
