As long as I establish a connection with you and let you see the great knowledge of my Mechanical Kingdom, you will understand and join our cause and become part of our destiny."

After being rejected by Lin Tianming, the mechanical mastermind Tianming finally revealed its true face.

As the attitude of the mechanical mainframe Tianming changed, data cables thicker than Lin Tianming's arms also frantically attacked Lin Tianming.

Psychic transformation!

At the critical moment, Lin Tianming, who did not want to be caught and brainwashed by the mechanical mastermind Tianming, did not care whether it was useful or not and directly performed psychic transformation.

Fortunately, Lin Tianming made the right bet. Almost at the same time as he performed the move, his consciousness in this space also became a spiritual body, thus avoiding the attack of the mechanical main brain Tianming.

"Is this... the power of a psychic ascender? No... How can a psychic ascender who has not yet become a god achieve complete spiritualization?"

"A fully spiritual ascended god has already abandoned his physical body, so how could he still have a physical body? This is an event that has never happened before."

The mechanical mastermind, Destiny, is clearly a supercomputer designed by humans in the Mechanical Kingdom, but it thinks like a real human being.

Except that it has no emotions, it is like a more perfect super human that has abandoned human weaknesses and is absolutely rational.

“The first person who designed Destiny entered a command that humans who have been baptized by the Psychic Ascension Pool cannot become mechanical ascenders of the Mechanical Kingdom. However, the rules are set by humans and will change with the progress of the times.

This psychic ascender who entered the mechanical ascension pool without exploding and dying can also directly achieve the perfect mechanical body evolution of mechanical ascension, and must belong to my mechanical kingdom. "

Despite the unexpected event, the mechanical mastermind Tianming thought for a moment and decided to continue arresting Lin Tianming.

The moment the mechanical mastermind made the decision, Lin Tianming's spiritual body was once again solidified by the mechanical mastermind's destiny and could not move.

"Don't struggle. You are in my data space. I can just modify the settings. You can't transform into a spirit body here. You will manifest your true body and join the glorious evolution. Achieving mechanical ascension will be the greatest decision of your life."

Just as Lin Tianming was about to be captured and brainwashed by the mechanical mastermind, his body far away in the mechanical secret realm suddenly burst into a dazzling light of star power.

The Star Key also floated in front of Lin Tianming's body, which was just an empty shell, and forcibly pulled Lin Tianming's consciousness in the mechanical main brain's destiny data space back to his body.

When his consciousness returned to his body, Lin Tianming, who was almost brainwashed by the mechanical mastermind Tianming, was still somewhat frightened.

"It was...you who saved me?"

Lin Tianming looked at the Star Key floating in front of him, feeling a little uncertain.

Xingyao did not respond at all. Seeing him wake up, he sank back into the void space that had established a connection with him.

Although Xingyao did not respond, Lin Tianming could still see that it was indeed it that saved him.

"Xingyao is a divine soldier of the Xingyao Angel... How could she save me? Could it be... that she instructed me to do so? But she seemed to have a deep hostility towards me last time..."

Unable to figure out the real reason why the Star Key operated on its own to rescue him, Lin Tianming simply stopped thinking about it.

He looked down at his body and realized that he had been completely reshaped into a mechanical body by the water in the Mechanical Ascension Pool.

At the same time, Lin Tianming also discovered that he had a new skill: mechanical transformation.

Mechanical transformation is somewhat similar to the effect of psychic transformation, allowing Lin Tianming's body to transform freely between the physical body and the mechanical body.

The only difference is that mechanical transformation is the transformation of the mechanical body, while psychic transformation is the transformation of the soul and spirit body.

Having escaped from the crisis of being nearly brainwashed by the mechanical mastermind, Tianming, and having learned new mechanical ascension skills, Lin Tianming was naturally extremely happy.

In order to prevent another accident from being pulled into the data space created by the mechanical main brain, Lin Tianming hurried out of the mechanical ascension pool.

Just at this time, the unconscious Alice slowly woke up from her sleep.

As soon as she woke up, she saw Lin Tianming walking out of the mechanical ascension pool. Alice, who was still very weak, suddenly became nervous.

"You...don't come over here!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Tianming easily performed mechanical transformation, transforming his mechanical body into a body of flesh and blood.

He walked slowly towards Alice and said with a smile, "Miss, I have a question for you. You kept calling me Ming just now. What does that mean?"

[I can't tell him that I'm a reincarnated person, and I knew him in my previous life, and he hurt me badly, right? ]

After thinking for a moment, Alice quickly came up with an idea and explained, "I... I'm a freshman from the Northern Yin Region who came to visit your Imperial Academy in the capital. I saw the video of you sparring with another freshman, Feng Lan, so I knew you were Lin Tianming! In our Northern Yin Region, we like to call people by their shorter names, so I call you by the last character of your name, Ming!"

"I see. Then why did you pretend not to know me at the pancake stand?"

After finally answering one of Lin Tianming's questions, Alice was stumped by Lin Tianming's new question. She lowered her head feeling guilty.

Seeing that Alice was feeling guilty, Lin Tianming smiled and said, "Is it because you want to sneak into this mechanical secret realm by yourself?"

"You...you already know this and yet you're asking!"

[Damn it! Ming must have suspected me since I was at the pancake stall, so he has been secretly following me! ]

[But it doesn't matter, as long as I trick him into thinking there's nothing in this mechanical secret realm, and trick him away, I can come back and take away the remaining artifacts! ]

[The opportunities in my previous life were taken away by him, so this life must belong to me! ]

Listening to Alice's wishful thinking, Lin Tianming will not let her get her way.

He first asked, "What's your name?"

Alice hesitated for a moment, but she still replied without any fighting spirit: "Love...Alice."

"Alice, I see that you seem to be very familiar with this mechanical secret realm. I think you must have learned about this place through your channels before coming here. You can lead the way and show me what other treasures there are in this secret realm.

You are very weak now, and only with my protection can you find those opportunities. If there are any good things, we can split them 50-50 depending on the situation. How do you think?"

[Fifty-fifty? There must be something fishy about me trusting you! ]

[Ming, who are you? I have lived my whole life and still don't know you. You will definitely kill me at the last minute to monopolize all opportunities!]

Although she didn't trust Lin Tianming at all, Alice pretended not to know on the surface.

"According to the information I got, this secret realm should only contain this Mechanical Ascension Pool and the Mechanical Divine Fluid that my mechanical doll and I just took. My original plan was to return after being baptized by the Mechanical Ascension Pool."

"Then you go back first. I think this mechanical secret realm is quite large. There should be some good treasures that you and I have missed. I will go and look for it myself!"

After Lin Tianming finished speaking, he walked in another direction.

When Alice first heard Lin Tianming’s remarks, she was a little nervous, fearing that Lin Tianming would take all the remaining opportunities.

But when she saw the direction Lin Tianming was heading, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise slightly.

[Fortunately, I was smart and didn't show him the way. There is no treasure in that direction, and if we walk, we will end up back at the starting point! ]

[When Ming leaves, I will go to the next road and take away all the artifacts. I can then restore my exhausted strength! ]

[With those artifacts, I will come back to avenge him after I recover and take revenge for my past life and what happened just now! ]

Lin Tianming heard what Alice was thinking, and he changed direction in time, heading towards the next road that had never been taken.

At this moment, the smug smile on Alice's face froze in an instant.

After a moment, she said anxiously, "Not there!"

Who would have thought that Lin Tianming didn't listen to her at all and continued to take the most correct path.

In order to prevent Lin Tianming from taking away all the artifacts, even though Alice was very weak now, she still got up from the ground, put away the mechanical doll released by Lin Tianming, and quickly chased after Lin Tianming.

"Ming, you must listen to me. That direction is very dangerous. Come back quickly!"
