The rapidly proliferating cell population took control of the antelope's body, quickly turning it into a subordinate of Beaune.

"Really? That works! How convenient." After pulling out the rhomboid spikes, Bai Aina patted the antelope's rump, signaling it to leave.

It's unclear whether it's due to the cells of a perfect being or because this antelope has been raised with masochistic tendencies. It seems determined to cling to Baina and refuses to leave.

"Trying to mess with me? Not so fast." Bai Aina scoffed, maneuvering the antelope away from the nearby grassland. "Hmm, there are still twenty-eight days left. I should allocate my time... I guess I'll have to practice the Kamehameha at sea; it's not good here."

After allocating her time, Baina decided to head to the nearest Indian Ocean for a further rest.

The bones inside the body also need to be replaced with the same material as the rhomboid spikes, so that the rhomboid spikes that can be used can be produced in a shorter time.

Chapter Five: Deep Sea Training

The ocean is usually divided into several layers, with the uppermost layer being the photosynthetic zone. In the photosynthetic zone, sunlight can clearly penetrate directly, and various phytoplankton and microorganisms thrive in the warm seawater. This is also the area that people know the most about.

However, upon entering the transition layer, the temperature, salinity, and density of the seawater undergo drastic changes. Marine predators like seals will inflate their lungs to adapt to the changing environment and navigate between shallow and deep waters.

It's a little shameful to admit, but Baina... hates the dark... and the creatures in the deep sea are just too outrageous in appearance. To avoid developing psychological trauma, she chose to hand over control to Nuen, while she retreated to the other side to communicate with her other clones.

He adjusted his body color to blend perfectly with his surroundings. Without activating 'Strength' or ripples to resist external pressure, Nunn relied entirely on the bones covering his body to withstand the terrifying pressure of the deep sea.

At a depth of 4 meters, the water pressure reaches an astonishing 8000 kilograms per square meter, or 800 atmospheres. To put it more concretely, the area the size of a toe experiences pressure exceeding the weight of two elephants. Under such pressure, even a tank equipped with Chobham armor would be crushed to pieces.

Aside from the deep-sea creatures that have evolved unique survival structures to adapt to this environment, it is an absolutely harsh environment for most creatures living on this planet. Nuen suggested coming here for training and collecting biological samples, and although she disliked the environment intensely, Baina agreed to her request.

At a depth of 8200 meters, no fish can survive. The proteins in the cells would be twisted and cease functioning under the high pressure of the deep sea. Therefore, no fish can survive in this environment.

At this moment, the bones covering her body were constantly contracting and pressing into her body, forcing the exposed body tissues to resist the omnipresent water pressure. Nunn did not want to simply temper her bones; she wanted some essential organs to also withstand this level of water pressure, so she gradually tested the limits of what was possible, pushing them to the brink of bursting.

Nunn's move was not just about increasing endurance, but also about finding ways to store more energy.

The pressure, all-encompassing and relentless, covering every corner, relentlessly oppressed this humanoid creature. In this desolate place, devoid of anything and the slightest trace of life, anyone who remained here, facing the eternal darkness... would succumb to hysterical madness.

Because she only had thirty days, Baina created several clones to simultaneously learn life skills, hacking skills, and martial arts skills. Information would frequently appear in her mind, which would then be backed up and recorded by Nuen.

In addition, there is a clone specifically for pleasure, with whom Baina often synchronizes to relax her constantly tense nerves.

Occasionally, Baina would snap out of her sync with her clone, staring at the maddening darkness and feeling a deep-seated disgust.

"..." The clear, distinct heartbeat continued, sounding even louder in the silent environment. This implanted device, produced by the Academic Alliance, continued to function normally even in this environment, providing energy for Nunn to consume.

Of course, Baina wasn't idle; she was undergoing higher-level training and learning of power consumption, just as she had originally envisioned.

A faint glow of Nen energy emanated from his outstretched palm, as fragile as a candle that could be blown out by the wind at any moment. Unlike the 'Firmness' he had previously used, this amount of Nen energy was far less exaggerated and terrifying than the three-foot-high wall of Nen.

However, this was exactly the situation that Baina hoped for. Although the light of Nen in her palm was much more stable than the light of a candle, it was still too fragile in this environment. It was almost like relying on a piece of paper as a stage for a cat to perform a game of catching mice.

To prevent this small amount of Nen light from collapsing, Baina continuously used this energy to resist the surging water pressure, within the limits she had set. It wasn't just simple energy manipulation; it also included elements of defensive techniques, namely, a bare-handed Nen wall, the highest level of defensive techniques! (Dull reading) It can even defend against attacks from physical matter.

However, there's still a considerable gap between this and the pressure being neutralized... In Bai Aina's ideal scenario, she would use the strength of a sheet of paper to resist this level of water pressure. Alternatively, she could rely on her cells to counteract the water pressure and absorb it.

Beyond force dissipation, there is an even stronger force deflection. The former merely resists, absorbs, and releases external kinetic energy, while the latter can even counteract the constraints of gravity.

Other topics include nail punching and body concussion... The former can be considered a minor success, since it is not that technically demanding, while the latter can only be described as a draft. There has been some progress on the artificial heart part.

The principle behind the Nail Fist is quite similar, but it's incredibly complex to execute. However, Bai Aina still has one thing she's very proud of: her Nail Fist is the real deal.

You can really use your fist like a nail!

This was not enough for Baina. As a traveler who could not stop, she needed to go further and take another step.

Not enough... This level of training isn't enough. Bai Aina closed her eyes and entered a state of deep meditation, but she didn't relax her control over the light of her psychic energy.

By cultivating it into an instinct, one can easily achieve this level. Meanwhile, Bai Aina, who has entered into deep meditation, is attempting to confront an opponent she has already fought in the spiritual world, and the target... is naturally Batman.

The Extreme Speed ​​Punch and the Boom Punch clashed, with the 50,000 horsepower magnetic field rotating against the peak level of Nen ability. Even if the opponent used the Batter Explosion Punch as his trump card, the True Martial Dolphin Fist, which had comprehended the 'True Self', would not be inferior in the slightest.

While Baina was engaged in deep meditation, Nuen manipulated his body to reach their destination. In the deep sea region of the aphrodisiac, there existed seabeds and volcanoes.

The molten lava produces a large amount of water vapor the moment it comes into contact with other lava, then cools and forms large chunks of lava. The heat radiated during this process heats the surrounding water, an environment in which only a few microorganisms can survive.

The body, already strengthened by thermophilic bacteria, was naturally not afraid of this level of temperature. The artificial heart in the body continuously absorbed the dissipated energy and converted it into bioenergy, storing it in 60 billion cells.

"If I count carefully, nineteen days have already passed..." Bai Aina realized that nine days of her ten-day rest period had already gone by, and it was almost over before she knew it. And the two days she spent in the deep sea... were truly a nightmare!

8200 meters below the surface, on the twentieth day, Baina is swimming in boiling water, her destination... an underwater volcano!

Chapter Six Arrives [Part 1]

"Xi Shuang, this 'Mysterious Heaven Yin Qi Eclipse Scripture' was created by our sect's predecessors. It originated from the extraordinary Robert Reynolds from the Marvel Universe. This man once accidentally connected to the [Forgotten Realm] and was possessed by an evil spirit. Although this made him the most powerful hero in the world, he possessed the power to create the world with every move he made, enough to travel through the endless void with his physical body and shatter stars with his fist."

"But his nature was ultimately that of a mortal, and this extraordinary person was tormented by inner demons for countless days and nights. Fortunately, he was helped by a senior who was destined to be with our sect, who bestowed upon him the Zhengyi Descent of Saintly Might Covenant from the Seven Chapters of the Mysterious Lord's Secret Scripture. He received guidance from the faceless god, successfully refined this evil demon, and shed his body of five turbid evil qi, transforming into the Sun-Eating Demon Star, transcending the mortal world."

"Speaking of this god, he is truly formidable. The faceless god has nurtured countless talents, such as Digdimon, the Seven Demon Pillars, Emperor Sirius, Buwu Silver Star, the Seventh of a Thousand Suns, Void Calamity, Tomb Bone King, Demon Slayer Silver Saint, Sheep Saya, Kos Orphan, and even bestowed the Yellow Robe Divine Wind, etc. These demons either cultivate in different worlds or enter the three religions and nine schools to spread theology. Each has its own realm and destiny, and is not subject to the rule of the Chaos Court."

"This cultivation method requires the physical body to draw in the annihilating evil energy of the ominous star Ketu during the transition from day to night, thus transforming the body through the meridians and cleansing the body. As the practitioner continuously devours evil karma and its fruits to transform the physical body, the body will gradually approach the level of demons as one embarks on the path of cultivation. The physical body will become indestructible, and even supernatural powers such as seizing stars and the moon can be used at will. However, during the cultivation process, the mind will also be troubled by boundless inner demons. If there is the slightest mistake, the thoughts will become nourishment for the demons residing in the physical body, and the practitioner will eventually be reborn through their body."

"However, Xishuang, you don't need to worry too much. Your temperament is most suitable for this technique. You entered the Dao with the Three Yin Demon-Slaying Blade, and your heart is as hard as iron. You kill everything. You have that temperament of entering the Dao through killing and eliminating all those who are unconvinced."

……

Theoretically, Mu Xishuang no longer has a body that needs to sleep, but each transmission from the Source Terminal forces her into a forced sleep.

She hoped to avoid this situation, but it seemed impossible to resolve. Fortunately, the source terminal had methods to handle such situations, usually arranging a safe place or a suitable identity for the reincarnator.

The silent cemetery was deserted at the moment. Although the gravedigger heard some noises inside, he was unwilling to leave his comfortable air-conditioned room.

Looking around, Mu Xishuang didn't find anything wrong, but she still wondered if the Source Terminal had some kind of opinion about her.

Opening the Book of Reincarnation, Mu Xishuang recalled her last mission and found it quite enjoyable.

Main mission: Reduce New York City's population to below 10% of its current size.

[Task Reward: One four-star item card]

[WARNING: The use of weapons of mass destruction (including the use or indirect exploitation of forces within the story world) is prohibited. Leaving New York City by any means is prohibited. Interfering with the actions of the story's protagonist, Alex Mercer, before the story begins is prohibited. Assisting New York City residents in leaving New York City is prohibited.]

"What... they actually restrict our movement? Fine, but why not allow us to use the weapons of mass destruction from the story factions..." Mu Xishuang, who had originally planned to use the old tricks, felt displeased. She felt as if she was being targeted.

In the previous instance of the "Mist" world, Mu Xishuang, whose mission was to expand the range of the mist, chose the simplest and most brutal method. She used the quantum state data virus created by Wu Rongcheng, the "Network Poison," to seize the right to launch nuclear weapons from the entire world, turning the entire world into a scorched wasteland and completely depriving it of its ability to fight back against the mist.

The opposing Reincarnators were also easily dealt with; they were purely tech-driven individuals who claimed to be arms dealers. Mu Xishuang simply used divination and prophecy to pinpoint their approximate location before launching a massive nuclear bombardment.

Now the Source Terminal is telling her that she can't use the weapons of mass destruction from the story faction... That makes sense, after all, this is the story world of Prototype. If Mu Xishuang were to nuke the entire city of New York, what would be the point of fighting?

However, the third rule is quite interesting... It forbids interference with the actions of the main character, Alex Mercer, before the plot begins. Does this mean that even before the plot has started, the Source Terminal is worried that the Reincarnators might just go and kill that guy? Judging from this single sentence, Mu Xishuang couldn't help but laugh.

This message is practically free, so I'll accept it. Standing up, Mu Xishuang, dressed in a black robe, gently flexed her fingers, took out a crystal ball from her storage space, and softly murmured the name of the main character in the story.

Meanwhile, at Blackwatch headquarters, a blond man in a green military uniform suddenly appeared. Despite this, the staff around him didn't sense anything amiss; instead, they all bowed respectfully to him. Everyone knew that this stern-faced soldier was Blackwatch's most respected captain, the one who quelled the DX-1118 virus incident in 1969 when he was only 18 years old!

Steve Rogers, this man, looks exactly the same as he did back then; time hasn't left a mark on his face.

"This time, is my identity assignment... that of a Blackwatch officer?" Sitting in his leather chair, Steve could understand his situation just by glancing at the nameplate on his chest. He narrowed his eyes as he looked at the new text displayed in the Book of Reincarnation.

Main Mission: Eliminate all Blacklight Virus infected and remove Elizabeth Green, the original carrier of the Blacklight Virus.

[Reward: One four-star mission card]

This mission... Steve stared at the mission and fell into deep thought, wondering if other reincarnators had missions to expand the infection rate of the Blacklight virus.

Furthermore, according to the usual statements from the source terminal, eliminating all Blacklight virus infected individuals does not concern how many people in New York City will survive. Otherwise, the mission should include a requirement to ensure the survival rate of New York City's population.

Neither of them is the time to sit here. Steve immediately stood up. According to the original plot, the Blacklight virus could reach a 50% infection rate in just over ten days. Every minute and every second now could mean the death of someone.

He headed straight to the conference hall, where Steve was to summon all the top executives of Blackwatch and pledge all his power to them.

Looking at the conspicuous Black Hawk symbol on the wall, Steve didn't say much. It was just that the symbol was too boring; it was time... to replace it with a more eye-catching symbol, one that better represented the force that would save the world.

What could be more suitable than a nine-headed serpent?

Nyarko smiled slightly: Come, come, which lucky day did I enlighten you today?

Chapter Seven Arrives [Part Two]

On the beach, the young men and women weren't in a hurry to play in the waves. Instead, they were curiously observing a blond man in a suit with a spiky haircut. His attire seemed odd, unsuitable for the beach, and he was wearing tasteless sunglasses. He also seemed somewhat bewildered as to why he was there.

"Wow...look, look, that guy is so tall!" There's no shortage of tall people in America, not to mention basketball stars. But this man, whose skin isn't particularly fair but not exactly Black either, is a full three meters tall!

[Donquixote Doflamingo, congratulations on being invited into the Origin Terminal. You will now be prompted to enter relevant instructions and necessary information. Please recall them carefully.]

[Main Quest: Join one of the story factions before midnight and ensure that the faction is not completely wiped out before the story ends.]

Indeed, it seemed that there was a piece of information that suddenly appeared in his mind... Doflamingo thought about it carefully and soon he was able to clearly feel the information that suddenly appeared in his mind.

"Doflamingo, do you know? Everyone has their own destiny, predetermined by fate. Some are born to be kings, some are born to be outlaws. You were born a Celestial Dragon, and that is what is called destiny. Being reduced to this state is your fate."

"Is stealing Dressrosa enough to satisfy you? That's ridiculous. Is living a life of seclusion under the table your goal?"

"If you are limited to this level, you will never be able to surpass the Four Emperors of this world, let alone defeat the Celestial Dragons who banished you from Mary Geoise."

Ah... Is that so? He's finally inside. Despite being all alone, Doflamingo shows no fear. After being utterly defeated in Dressrosa, and then rescuing himself from Impel Down, he spent considerable time adjusting his mental state.

He is no longer the 'Joker' of the underworld, but the unscrupulous Heavenly Demon who dares to rob the Celestial Dragons of their treasures.

Joining the Dark Dynasty...? That would have to wait until he was out of his current predicament. From the knowledge transmitted through the Source Terminal, Doflamingo learned about the situation in the modern world. He had already noticed the stares of the people around him, but he wasn't too bothered by them.

Moreover, like Dressrosa, this place is also the setting of the story. The newcomer service at the Origin Terminal is quite good, not only providing common sense about the modern world, but also inputting the plots of the two "Prototype" movies into Doflamingo's mind to prevent him from being at a disadvantage in his battles with other Reincarnators.

Black Watch... the prototype... Elizabeth? Having accurately analyzed the three factions in the story, Doflamingo pondered which side he should join or which side he should assist, as he had considerable resources in this regard.

The level of martial arts in this world is not high. Even if Alex, the protagonist of the story, were to reach his limit, he might not be able to defeat Doflamingo, who is at the level of a near-admiral.

Multitasking is not an impossible feat for him; the 'Shadow Rider String' clone created by the String-String Fruit can achieve sensory synchronization with Doflamingo.

But so far... the plot hasn't even started yet? Let's go see the main characters then. However, upon reaching this point, Doflamingo's expression turned rather sour, as if he were recalling some unpleasant memory.

Having figured it out, Doflamingo reached out and pulled, using the silk thread to hook onto a distant building, disappearing from the spot and swinging into the distant cluster of buildings.

In a city alley, a yellow-skinned man in a suit and glasses appeared. He glanced at his Book of Reincarnation and immediately perked up.

Main Mission: Ensure the survival of the main character, Alex Mercer, until the end of the story, and defeat the Blackwatch.

Alex Mercer?! This is New York?! Looking around, he jumped up excitedly, having been to New York countless times.

"Great! Mr. Mercer! It's my turn, He Sanjin, to help you this time!" The incredibly excited Asian man, with red mist rising from beneath his feet, leaped onto a nearby building and unleashed a bio-pulse. The resulting sensory field instantly spanned several kilometers and continued to expand into the distance.

But soon, the bio-pulse contracted into a beam that shot into the sky, but only He Sanjin could see this beam of light.

Undoubtedly, this was an extremely reckless act. The spreading bio-pulse would indeed be a very effective tracking method, but others would notice this obvious move. However, He Sanjin didn't care; in his view, it was the fastest way.

In any case, Alex Mercer will attract the attention of other reincarnators. Prophecy, satellite positioning, revelation, the path of sincerity, magical tracking—there are simply too many ways to track down a main character who doesn't understand mysticism!
