Fantasy Game: Infinite City

Chapter 579 "Natural Disasters"

Following γ4, Han Zu arrived at a small, modest space, about fifty or sixty square meters, resembling an empty storage room. While the room lacked any visible lighting, doors, or windows, it wasn't dark; it appeared to be the same brightness as a well-lit room. The room was constructed from a special alloy manufactured by some contractor. The exact color was difficult to pinpoint, but Han Zu recognized it as the color of the material used extensively by the contractors, similar to mercury, though less lustrous.

"Give."

γ4 handed Han Zu some cloth. When Han Zu took over the cloth, it immediately moved and decomposed into a liquid-like state, and then decomposed and absorbed the clothes Han Zu had just put on. Soon, the cloth that had decomposed into a liquid state hardened and solidified again, turning into a normal set of clothes. Han Zu reached out and touched it. It felt very soft, but Han Zu could feel that it was unusually strong.

γ4 was operating something with his new body. Soon, a multifunctional data platform rose from the wall and appeared in front of the two of them. A large amount of data appeared on the holographic screen. Under γ4's operation, these data composed of the contractor's text were being quickly translated into text that Han Zu could understand.

"I have to say, the improvement in your physical fitness this time is quite astonishing. Even if you compare your physical fitness with your level of evolution, this improvement in physical fitness is not in line with common sense."

"You mean this is too fast?"

"Yes, now that your body is full of energy, the various data we calculated through combat are already somewhat... Forget it, you should take a look at it yourself first. After you digest it, we can continue to discuss some details."

Han Zu glanced at γ4 next to him and felt a little puzzled, because he actually saw an expression of surprise and confusion on γ4's metal body. Although γ4 was now loaded with an emotional module, and the contractors' advanced body technology also enabled them to change their expressions, this was the first time Han Zu saw such a change in expression on a contractor.

Soon, all the text and data were translated, and Han Zu began to carefully observe the detailed combat data he had calculated during the previous battle with γ4. When he finished understanding it, he was also very surprised. No wonder γ4 also showed a surprised expression.

"The detailed data is all here. However, if you find these calculations too troublesome, I can try to tell you in a more understandable way how far your body has evolved."

Indeed, for Han Zu, the huge amount of detailed data would take some time to fully understand, but since he did not like mathematics, he still had a headache after seeing these massive amounts of data. So he agreed with γ4's statement and asked the other party to use a more understandable way to explain to what extent he had evolved.

"Then I'll explain step by step based on the test data. First, your basic physical data. Your body is unlike any conventional or even unconventional organism in the strict sense. The structure of your body is a kind of supercell that can be partially explained by science, but not fully understood. Not only can these cells replace all other types of cells, they can also absorb, compress, and store huge amounts of energy. Furthermore, they can recharge other biomass absorbed into your body, using energy overload to transform these supercells.

Each of these supercells has a density comparable to, or even exceeding, that of steel. Furthermore, their sheer number and exceptional hardness, exceeding 1.5 times that of diamond under normal conditions, allow them to naturally repair damage without relying on other supplements. This powerful cellular mass allows them to achieve astonishing efficiency: micron-level wounds can be repaired in just 0.05 seconds, centimeter-level wounds in just 3 seconds. Even if 90% of your body is damaged, you can still repair it within half a minute. However, in such extreme cases, you will need to replenish biomass and energy."

γ4's metal fingers tapped the wall twice, then paused. Even he found it difficult to accept the data he had just seen. However, he quickly composed himself and continued.

"This body, composed of super cells beyond the scope of science, allows you to withstand high temperatures. You can function normally in temperatures of 30000 degrees Celsius, and can move or fight in environments with temperatures of 50000 degrees Celsius for short periods of time. This body also allows you to withstand extremely high gravitational accelerations. In numerical terms, you can withstand a force of 5000G vertically and 3000G horizontally without causing any damage to your body.

The epidermal structure formed by these supercells is also unique. It appears as a micron-sized, streamlined scale that reduces drag by 40%, absorbs vibrations, and prevents air turbulence caused by movement. Your body temperature is also higher than that of a normal human, around 38 degrees Celsius. And these are just your basic body data.

"These all sound very impressive, but I don't have any intuitive feelings about them. Why don't you tell me about my other abilities now?"

"Okay, you don't really have a very intuitive sense of your basic physical data. Let's start with your perception. At maximum effectiveness, your perception has a range slightly larger than you described—not 150 meters, but 0 meters. Within this range, unless you're in a situation that requires significant energy consumption, your perception is incredibly precise. Without using your five senses, your perception is so precise that you can detect the vibrations of an insect's wing, the energy fluctuations of a cell phone signal, and the structural differences of a small metal crack. Furthermore, your night vision allows you to see everything within a 1.5-kilometer radius in zero light, and your clairvoyance can penetrate almost all known substances. Even heavy metals like lead and uranium can be seen at close enough distances, provided they're not too thick. With sufficient energy, you can also see up to 1000 meters."

"This is within my expectations. After all, I could see things several kilometers away under normal circumstances before."

"You still don't remember. 1.5 kilometers is the distance you can see clearly in an extreme environment with no light. Under normal circumstances, your current normal visual range is at least 10 kilometers, and the clarity is also very high."

"So much?"

"However, even these figures are but a drop in the bucket compared to what I'm about to discuss. Although we weren't able to measure your maximum speed in our previous battle due to the limited space, based on the available data, your maximum speed, whether moving or flying, has already reached an exorbitant Mach 280. According to calculations, as long as you have sufficient energy, you can reach your maximum speed of Mach 280 from a standstill in just three seconds. If you're already moving, this time is even shorter. Your strong physical fitness allows you to adapt to these hypersonic speeds effortlessly. Furthermore, given your body's adaptability, even if you were forced to stop from maximum speed, your hovering accuracy would be less than 0.1 meters. This surpasses the technology of your planet and civilization, and the speed of almost all vehicles and aircraft. It even surpasses the fastest aircraft used by the Tig people, reaching the speed range of military vehicles."

Then there's your biofield. Without active control, its range is a ten-centimeter sphere centered on your body. However, if you actively control it and increase its power, it can expand to a maximum sphere with a diameter of 17 meters. According to our combat data, when your biofield is actively controlled, without any physical contact with you, it can carry a one-ton weight of anything, including people and objects. At the same time, within the range of your biofield, your own energy creates a comfortable environment similar to Earth's atmosphere. Even humans and animals can survive within it as long as your biofield is not destroyed."

"Mach 280?! Doesn't that mean I can already fly into space?"

"Not only that, according to your civilization's physics, this speed is approximately 5.7 times the so-called 'third cosmic velocity.' If you wanted, you could even fly out of your galaxy, but that would take a very long time. In short, unless you encounter a planet of exceptionally large mass, the current gravitational pull of most planets will no longer be able to hold you back. At least in your star system, there are no planets of this mass."

"So if I want to fly around the Earth, how long will it take? What about flying from here to the moon?"

"To fly around your planet at its maximum distance, at your highest possible speed, would take about seven minutes. To reach the surface of your planet's only satellite, if you take off from the ground, perigee would take sixty-four minutes, and apogee would take seventy-three minutes."

"Holy crap! So fast! What about my other offensive abilities? When I was on the seabed, I couldn't use my high-energy rays and particle streams, but after recharging them here, they're working again. What's going on?"

"Your two current energy attack methods are essentially different ways of utilizing your internal energy, and they require a large amount of energy consumption. Your body has a self-protection mechanism. If your energy level drops to 3%, it will automatically block the flow of energy, ensuring the minimum energy required for survival. That's why they were unable to be used when your energy was severely low. Before, when your energy was fully replenished, this protection mechanism naturally ceased to be effective. As for their power, by the way, do you understand what these rays you can release are?"

"I'm not really sure about that. I just think of it as a laser eye. To be honest, I haven't really studied its specific composition."

"Your beam ability is actually a hybrid of gamma rays and plasma beams, possessing extremely high power. According to calculations, its range in Earth's atmosphere is up to 10 kilometers, and in a vacuum, it can reach 100 kilometers. Focusing the melting point and unleashing it at full force, it can penetrate 1000 meters of reinforced concrete, or any other material within a single second, vaporizing most of the material in its path. In space, you could destroy a medium-sized ship approximately 300 meters long and 40 meters wide in 10 seconds. Of course, this assumes the enemy doesn't have adequate defenses, or their defenses are insufficient to withstand your high-energy beams. Your beam is powerful enough to destroy even a small contractor shuttle before it can react."

Han Zu widened his eyes and couldn't think of a suitable adjective, so he could only give a thumbs up and continue listening to γ4's story.

"For example, if you were to crash into the Earth at full speed, you could create a crater 1 km in diameter and 500 meters deep. This level of impact would trigger a magnitude 7 earthquake and a 10-meter-high tsunami near the impact point. If you were to crash vertically into the ocean, the force would trigger a 50-meter-high supertsunami around the impact point, disrupting global ocean currents. In space, where there's no absolute vacuum, you could directly smash into a 1-kilometer-sized asteroid. After a direct impact, you wouldn't be physically harmed, but your speed would likely drop significantly.

Given your current extreme physical capabilities, you don't even need to actively attack. Simply by disabling your bio-field and flying at full speed, you can wreak havoc on a wide area. When you fly at full speed, at an altitude of one kilometer or less, the shockwaves and other effects of your flight can directly destroy buildings within a radius of ten kilometers. Any creature on Earth, or of similar physical capabilities, within a kilometer of your flight path will have its internal organs ruptured.

If you fly at an altitude of 10 kilometers or less, and at full speed, you could trigger a rainstorm or a typhoon, tearing the ozone layer apart and forming a huge hole.

Hearing this, Han Zu stood up from the ground, stared at the data on the screen with wide eyes, not knowing what to say, but it seemed that this was not over yet.

"Based on the current technological level detected on your planet, your body is now fully capable of withstanding all conventional human weaponry. Live ammunition and energy weapons are incapable of harming you. Even nuclear radiation will do you no harm. You will no longer require any protective gear in environments like the deep sea and space. If you possess sufficient energy to maintain your biofield, you will be able to offer absolute protection against all existing human weaponry, even some of our own technology, while also ensuring zero damage to targets within a 17-meter radius of your biofield."

The energy reserves in your body allow you to complete 40 hours of full-scale combat before your energy drops to 3%, even in a vacuum environment, where there is no energy to replenish you. If you enter an environment with a large amount of energy to replenish, such as near energy facilities, near stars, or areas with excessive cosmic magnetic fields, you can maintain your best condition through your ability to convert energy.

Although, in our technology, even if you possess such strength, it would not be enough to counter our armed forces, the standards we are comparing ourselves to are different. Those who can surpass your strength are basically armed battle groups, gunboats, heavy destroyer vehicles, and the like. Their biggest problem is strength, speed, and adaptability; they always have shortcomings in some area. You, on the other hand, are different. You are a single person, yet you possess this level of strength. Even my body just now was actually receiving direct energy from the giant energy core, while you were only passively absorbing it. And yet you almost completely destroyed that body. This is extremely terrifying.

In short, you can no longer be described as an individual in any way. You are now equivalent to a severe natural disaster, capable of free movement and possessing self-awareness. However, considering the actual situation, I believe you are even more powerful than that. Compared to a natural disaster of the same level, you can hide, blend into cities or key facilities, launch attacks from key positions, and ultimately cause greater damage, which is something a natural disaster simply cannot do.
