1933 The Final Reincarnation
Just like that, as the number of his reincarnations increased from four to five digits, and from five to six digits, Meng Chao’s deductions of the future became better each time. He could take what seemed like small but extremely firm steps forward.
With each new cycle, more and more people were willing to be implanted with the chip.
It went from one percent of Dragon City’s total population to three percent, and then to five percent. There were even people from the Turan civilization and the northern tribes of Chaos who volunteered to get the chip.
As the number of chip users increased, Meng Chao could analyze new information exchange and remote control technology from the millions of volunteers. He could keep upgrading the control chip based on their data feedback.
At first, the control chip only allowed a single line of communication. It relied on his brain to give orders to his several thousand followers.
Meng Chao might have experienced countless reincarnations and have huge condensed memories as well as his terrifying deduction ability. Despite that, controlling the fate of several thousand people in real time was still an extremely daunting task.
The control chip that had been upgraded for the next generation would allow chip users to share their vision, monitoring data, battle experience, and so on. Chip users could analyze the information in real time and come up with their own strategies. Meng Chao only needed to choose the best strategy out of the bunch.
After hundreds of reincarnations, the latest model of his control chip could even tap into the calculative ability of the human brain. It could combine the brain power of countless chip users into a supercomputer that was omnipresent and omnipotent. It could also feed Meng Chao’s brain and soul.
With the wisdom of so many individuals, Meng Chao ended up engraving all the techniques he had obtained into the depths of his soul.
At the beginning of the next reincarnation, he applied techniques that had been verified and upgraded from the previous reincarnations on his followers.
As a result, his followers would be even more shocked, and they would trust him. Since they treated him as a god, they obeyed his every word and worshiped him.
When the number of chip users surpassed ten percent of the Chaos faction’s total population, the quantitative change finally led to a qualitative change.
One should know that the difference in strength between the chip users and the non-chip users was not as simple as one to nine.
It was a competition between thousands of highly-united fanatical believers with the same thoughts and millions of scattered and independent people.
One man in power was invincible.
The chip users were a new human race that had surpassed the limits of intelligent creatures.
They dealt a great blow to the motley crew of old humans with ease. Ultimately, they controlled the political and economic power of the Dragon City civilization and even the Chaos faction. In addition, they grasped the direction of the entire faction’s scientific and technological advancement. They carried out Meng Chao’s will and invested a large amount of resources into rocket propulsion as well as aerospace defense technology.
Once the number of AI chip users reached thirteen percent of the entire population, Meng Chao led the elites of the Chaos faction in developing a firing system called the Chaos Cannon.
It was obviously just an upgraded version of the Huge Dragon’s Might Cannon, which could destroy a Holy Light altar hundreds of miles away with one shot.
In reality, its purpose was not to launch artillery shells but to launch modified space capsules into the thermosphere. This layer was more than five hundred kilometers above the ground and close to the exosphere.
It was only a step away from breaking free from the planet’s gravitational force and entering the boundless sea of stars.
In the next reincarnation, it took Meng Chao ten years to increase the number of chip users to fifteen percent of the total population. The best brains of the entire civilization were connected, and they completely changed the shell and crystal engines of armored airships. They changed the traditional piston-type engines into jet engines. With their insane craftsmanship, they crudely and easily stacked the number of engines. In the end, they created a steel monster with sixty-four jet engines. It was not until it successfully shot into the exosphere more than eight hundred kilometers above ground that it was torn apart by waves from cosmic radiation and the planet’s magnetic field.
Even though Meng Chao himself had died during the experiment, he remembered everything before his soul was completely destroyed.
In the next cycle, the number of chip users increased to nineteen percent of the total population.
This time, Meng Chao took a different approach. He poured a large amount of resources into his body and individual equipment.
His cultivation also increased to an unprecedented level.
With the help of his reinforced iron bones, he could soar into the sky and tear through the clouds. As such, he could reach the area between the thermosphere and exosphere, which was more than five hundred kilometers above ground.
The most talented scientists in the Chaos faction also conducted in-depth research and development on Dragon City’s rune machines, Picturesque Orchid Lake’s totem armor, and the Chaos faction’s other advanced technologies. They created the ultimate armor with seven layers, and these layers could be separated or combined.
Jet crystal engines were even installed in this ultimate armor.
If Meng Chao relied on his vitality magnetic field to resist gravity and rise to a height of more than five hundred kilometers, he would almost run out of spirit energy.
Now, he could activate the jet crystal engine and fly into outer space with the help of science and technology.
The intense interaction between cosmic radiation and the planet’s magnetic field raised a storm that was literally thousands of meters high.
Billions of lightning bolts intertwined together and rose from the endless void like walls of destruction. They soon shot toward Meng Chao.
However, like a lizard that shed its tail to survive, Meng Chao shed the seven layers of his armor, one layer at a time.
Each time, he would discard a piece of armor that had been damaged by the endless hellfire and destructive lightning.
He had stars above his head and flames beneath his feet as he took a step forward in an unprecedented realm.
In the end, he exhausted all seven layers of the armor.
His steel body was also riddled with holes by the space dust that was surging at the highest speed and surrounded by electric arcs.
However, before he fell back to the ground, he successfully reached the upper edge of the exosphere, which was 2,900 kilometers away from the ground!
In a trance, Meng Chao seemed to see the hazy, unpredictable, dazzling, holy, and peaceful ocean of light.
He saw the ultimate answer that had been hidden for countless reincarnations.
Meng Chao had a vague premonition that he and his entire civilization would see the end to the infinite cycle of reincarnation.
In the following reincarnation, he successfully increased the number of chip users to thirty percent of the civilization’s total population.
Endless information, along with the surging brain waves, fused together and set off an incredible technological explosion.
With Meng Chao’s guidance, the scientists of the Chaos faction successfully fused the great Chaos Cannon launching system, the jet crystal engine propulsion system, and the technology of the cosmic airship and ultimate Sevenfold Armor together!
