Science Fiction: Starting from Obtaining Sophon

So the first thing to do is to drain his blood, then remove the bones, and then cut the muscles along the muscle fibers.

All of these major parts require special treatment, just like mummies, which require soaking in special solutions to further increase muscle toughness and bone density.

It may seem simple, but it is actually extremely complex.

Because different muscles and bones in different locations require different solutions for soaking, and special techniques are needed to pull and lock the tendons and bones to restore the body's mobility.

These solutions would be very difficult to obtain in that mechanical civilization, and would even require the tribe's 'shaman' to spend several years preparing them.

However, in an era of advanced science, it was naturally easy and effortless. The medicine was prepared very easily, and then came the dismemberment process.

This guy's body is extremely tough. If it weren't for Genda River's sword energy, it would be very difficult to cut through his body, even with a cutting machine.

However, under the powerful sword energy condensed by the Breath of the Moon, even the toughest body was easily disassembled, like dismantling parts.

Soon, the body, which was originally intact, was dissected like a skilled butcher carving up an ox. The sword blade moved along the muscle texture, deftly separating all the solidified muscles, organs, tendons, bones, and fascia.

Soon, the muscles and bones from different parts of the body were placed into different large jars and began to soak.

While the puppet was soaking, the internal mechanical structure was also being constructed.

First, there are several common connecting structural parts. These parts are used in large quantities and are the simplest to manufacture.

Then there are gears and linkage mechanisms, which are the most complex parts. However, in today's industrial society, we don't need to make all of these ourselves. We can just buy some similar ones, modify them slightly, and they will work.

Of course, even though they used the best parts, the force these parts could withstand was still completely insufficient.

But it doesn't matter. Once it's manufactured, Zhizi can strengthen these parts just like she strengthened those swords.

It must be said that although that mechanical civilization was very backward, the mechanical structures they designed were truly ingenious.

This was already evident from the Thunder Chain Sword.

However, even the most ingenious mechanisms have some insurmountable flaws. The puppets can only perform simple tasks because they rely on the kinetic energy generated by the mechanism and cannot operate indefinitely.

But after Sophon's improvements, everything changed completely.

Zhizi combined mechanical devices with current technology, implanting a chip into the brain of a flesh puppet, and then using spacetime energy to refine the entire body.

In this way, the muscles throughout the flesh puppet's body, just like Gendagawa's body, can be used to store electrical energy, and the total amount of electrical energy stored may even far exceed that of Gendagawa himself.

More importantly, it retains the vitality of flesh and blood, allowing the body to possess the same abilities as when it was alive. Furthermore, because the body is inanimate, it can use spacetime energy without any worries about damaging the body.

Just like the actions that Tomoko couldn't perform inside Gendagawa's body, they can all be performed now.

In that case, once this flesh and blood puppet is completed, under Tomoko's control, its power could even surpass that of the current Gendagawa!

However, there are also drawbacks, the first being wear and tear...

Even the best puppet is still a puppet. No matter how carefully it is maintained, it cannot be completely preserved if it goes through a series of major battles.

Finally, there's strength. A puppet's strength is determined when it's made. The only way to improve it is through modification and upgrading, which requires higher-level materials.

Genda River exerted himself to the utmost throughout the entire night.

This puppet is of great significance. With it, Zhizi will have a body that can move. Although it is not perfect, it is still a big step forward.

Of course, Tomoko still cannot leave Gendagawa's body for an extended period of time; given the current system repair speed, three hours is the limit.

However, such a powerful flesh and blood puppet could accomplish a lot in three hours.

Golden morning light streamed through the glass window, illuminating the smooth ground. A glistening drop of water slowly fell from the eaves outside the window, landing in a small puddle and creating tiny ripples.

Meanwhile, inside the factory, a bead of sweat dripped from the forehead of Genda Kawa, who was shirtless. The intense work that had lasted all night had left him feeling exhausted.

After all, there are just too many and too varied parts. Even with Somo's help in planning and maximizing his efficiency, without any unnecessary actions, and with most of the parts being readily available modifications, it was impossible to achieve the desired results.

However, its complexity is far beyond what the Thunder Chain Sword can match; it's comparable to assembling a large thermal power unit.

At this point, 2.5 had already installed the last part.

Immediately, lightning crackled on his fingers as Zhizi unleashed a powerful current, which, carrying arcs like small lightning bolts, struck the puppet's opening.

Immediately, the flesh and blood puppet was activated.

The intricate gears within his chest cavity began to operate, and then an electric current surged into his muscles, bones, and brain. The chip implanted in his brain also lit up at this moment, and his muscles, stimulated by the electric current, began to contract again.

A moment later, the puppet's eyes snapped open, and wisps of flame slowly rose from its skin, as if the Fire Demon Dragon Qi had been resurrected.

Then, something even more terrifying happened.

The wounds on the puppet's naked body, formed by being severed, cut, having bones removed, and then reassembled, were slowly healing until they disappeared completely!

Chapter 186 Battle Against the Puppet

This is the beauty of flesh and blood puppets: they are fearless puppets, yet they can also possess the abilities their bodies had in life!

Without the interference of sword energy powered by breathing techniques, the mutant's powerful regenerative abilities became apparent, and all kinds of injuries on his body were rapidly healing.

"Great, it's finally finished! Let me try it out!"

Tomoko was already impatient, and Genda was also extremely excited. He reached out and pressed his index finger against the flesh puppet's forehead. A faint light flashed, and then the flesh puppet's eyes lit up.

"Crack—"

With a crisp cracking sound of bones, the previously stiff body began to move slowly, just like a stiff robot.

However, with the release of an electric arc, the muscles throughout the flesh puppet's body contracted, and the mechanisms in its chest and abdominal cavities began to activate.

The puppet trembled slightly, and its aura underwent a subtle change, as if it had suddenly come to life, and the light in its eyes suddenly shone brightly.

At this 12 o'clock, the movements that were originally somewhat stiff and slow became smooth, and there was no longer any feeling of sluggishness.

Zhizi simply picked up the Cloud Fang sword that was placed aside and began to practice her moves. In an instant, the sword light was chilling, with layers upon layers of sword light phantoms, dense and continuous, carrying a terrifying power.

After practicing for a while, Zhizi had mastered the entire flesh and blood puppet as if it were her own arm, and had also completed the break-in process. The entire puppet body was now extremely smooth.

"Even though it's a puppet's body, the feeling of having a body is just amazing!" Tomoko used the voice device to speak, her sweet voice filled with excitement and joy.

It was rather incongruous for such a sound to come from such a rough and explosive body.

Tomoko noticed this too, and somewhat annoyed, she adjusted her voice, adopting a rough male tone, which made things much better.

"Now that I have a body, let's find a place to have a fight."

Genda River smiled and said, "That's exactly what I was thinking too."

Although it was already daytime, the place was extremely remote, and the two of them were moving at a speed that was like a ghost. Even if they flashed past an ordinary person, they would only see a blur. So the two of them quickly arrived at an extremely secluded wilderness.

Zhizi held her sword horizontally in front of her: "I'm about to begin!"

With that, he leaped into the air, raising his hand and transforming the Cloud Fang in his hand into a streak of light, like a shooting star, already in front of Genda River.

Gendagawa immediately parried with his sword, the sword in his hand clashing fiercely with the Murakumo-ga, the violent force spreading throughout his body!

"Such terrifying power! Compared to when this body was alive, after being refined into a flesh puppet and controlled by Zhizi, its power has more than doubled. I originally had a slight advantage in physical strength, but now that its power has surged, I am no match for it in a head-on confrontation."

He immediately used the illusion to distance himself, avoiding the opponent's sharp edge, and at the same time activated the sword technique of Moon Breathing. A wide range of sword energy, mixed with arc-shaped air blades, swept towards the flesh puppet like dense hail.

Although the flesh and blood puppet is extremely powerful, even stronger than its body was in life, the problem is that a puppet is still a puppet; it has no internal organs, such as a heart or lungs, and cannot use breathing techniques.

Therefore, even though Tomoko was more proficient in breathing techniques than him, she was still flustered in the face of such a wide-range attack.

This gives him time to focus his Breath of the Sun!

With each breath, a scorching heat, like that of the blazing sun, filled my organs and coursed throughout my body. Every pore on my body seemed to erupt with scorching heat, like a tiny volcano.

"The type of picking up six?? Oriole naked list??/p>"

This is the sixteenth sword form of Moon Breathing, which is both the last and the most powerful. It can pinpoint the location of several enemies and then unleash several sword energy hurricanes, each of which contains countless tiny arc-shaped air blades.

Facing a hurricane is like facing a mountain of swords and blades; there is no way to defend against it. However, if facing a single enemy, several sword energies and hurricanes will converge, trapping the enemy completely within them.

Using the sword technique of invoking the sun to drive the moon, although the sword qi hurricane no longer has the fragmented impact of the arc-shaped qi blades and has many more gaps, the power of the sword qi hurricane is on a higher level.

To put it simply, Sun Breathing and Moon Breathing are like weaving a net. Sun Breathing weaves a large net with wide mesh. Although there are many gaps, the threads of the net are extremely strong and almost indestructible.

The net woven by the breath of the moon is extremely fine, so fine that even a small fish as thick as a thumb cannot escape. However, the threads of the net are much thinner, and if the resistance is strong enough, they can be torn. But if one cannot break free, then there is almost no chance of escape.

Although Gendagawa hasn't fully combined the two yet—after all, he hasn't even started practicing the Sun Breathing sword technique—its power is already considerable.

"It is indeed very powerful, but it can't stop me!"

Amidst the smoke and dust, Zhi Zi's voice rang out. Before the several sword qi hurricanes could converge, several sword lights flashed at an incredible speed, slashing and cutting at one of the sword qi hurricanes, unleashing an extremely dense burst of explosions, just like two air cannons exchanging fire.

Genda River saw it clearly: "I see, that was incredibly fast!"

Tomoko couldn't use breathing techniques, but the puppet's advantage was that it could push the puppet's speed to its limit. With the clever stimulation of the electric current, the speed suddenly exploded to the extreme.

Its top speed is more than twice that of the Gendagawa River!

Therefore, Zhizi could deflect and shatter all those sword energies one by one, just like using her fingers to turn the low-speed 610 gears.

In the blink of an eye, Tomoko's figure had already swiftly appeared, and just like at the start of the battle, she threw out the Murakumo Fang in her hand.

However, Genda River smiled slightly, as if he had expected this.

Just as the opponent charged out, a prepared slash fell, instantly sending Cong Yunya flying!

In the blink of an eye, Genda River appeared in front of the flesh puppet. Then, his sword, like a meteor, pierced the puppet's body with a bang, and the protective flames that had just formed on the puppet's body came to an abrupt end!

Then the sword pierced through the puppet's body without any resistance, and all of the puppet's movements immediately stopped.

At this moment, Tomoko had returned to Genda River's body. In the spiritual world, her little mouth was pouting, clearly somewhat unconvinced, but then she sighed.

"After leaving your body, my scanning ability, without your mental support, is depleted far too quickly. But you, on the other hand, possess the ability to see into the world, allowing you to predict a puppet's next move by observing its interior."
