In a room cluttered with bottles, jars, and lab equipment, Bai Zang (the Gu Master) carefully fiddled with a lab box filled with fluorescent green culture fluid. His face wore a rare expression of concentration. This experiment hinged on the future—a true "AI Gu," a marvel that simultaneously combined biology, Gu Dao, and mecha technology.
"Huh——" Bai Zang gently wiped the sweat from his forehead and his eyes fell on the incubator. The six strange-shaped poisonous insects were slowly wriggling, with a faint light on their bodies.
"Finally...success."
He murmured softly, his eyes filled with excitement and enthusiasm.
In ancient books on Gu Dao, there is a kind of Gu called "Tiancan Gu". It was originally a Gu insect used by ancient magic cultivators to improve their own cultivation. It can strengthen the circulation of spiritual energy and improve the telepathy between the cultivator and his own Gu insect.
However, this kind of poison has great side effects. Once it cannot be controlled, the cultivator's spiritual energy will be devoured by the poisonous insects, and he may even explode and die.
Therefore, Bai Zang made special modifications to the Tiancan Gu during the cultivation process:
Remove side effects: Eliminate the insect's original devouring ability on the host, adjust its spiritual energy consumption so that it can only exist as an "auxiliary" and will not backfire on the host's spiritual energy.
Enhanced Telepathy: Allows the Gu to more easily accept the host's commands and establish a closer neural connection with its brain.
Accessing the psychic chip: This step is the most critical technological breakthrough. Bai Zang implanted a micro psychic chip in the insect's body, giving it the ability to process thoughts and seamlessly connect with the mecha system.
In this way, the Tiancan Gu can not only allow the mecha pilot to directly control the mecha through thinking, but also automatically calculate the best tactical plan, and even improve the efficiency of psychic output!
It can be said that this is a completely epoch-making technological breakthrough.
As the last drop of special spiritual energy solution dripped into the incubator, the forms of the six silkworm Gu changed -
Their bodies became more crystal clear, with golden lines appearing on their backs, emitting a faint spiritual glow, making them look like miniature spirit beasts.
Each silkworm Gu is given a unique code, which are:
α-001 (exclusive to Zero) β-002 (exclusive to Shadow Killer) γ-003 (exclusive to Black Tortoise Guard) δ-004 (exclusive to Sky Sword Armor) ε-005 (exclusive to Wandering Feather Sword Armor) ζ-006 (exclusive to the Gu Master himself)
Bai Zang looked at these little things with a burning gaze, a smug smile on his face.
"Boss, I have fulfilled your wish."
He reached out and gently pressed the incubator's opening button. Six AI silkworm Gu immediately slowly floated in the air, dancing gently around Bai Zang like six streams of light.
"Let's go, it's time to find your master."
Now that the AI Gu are ready, all Bai Zang has to do is deliver them to their respective owners.
He opened the interstellar express system and skillfully entered six addresses:
Number Zero (Xiang Fan) - A room in the slums of Qixing Company
Shadow Killer (Ning Yuge) - Xingyuan Sect
Xuanwu Guardian (Luo Tiangang) - Xingyuan Sect
Sky Sword Armor (Ling Ruoxi) - The main residence of Ling's Star
Wandering Feather Sword Armor (Ling Ruochen) - Branch of Ling's Star
Bai Zang clapped his hands in satisfaction: "Alright, delivered!"
Five specially made small express pods then whizzed towards the Interstellar Express Center and launched almost simultaneously, heading towards their respective destinations.
5. Recipient’s Reactions (1) Zero (Xiang Fan) – “What kind of strange pet is this?”
Xiang Fan was repairing his broken mecha. When he received the package, he thought it was some strange scam email. He opened it and saw -
"What the hell?! What the hell is this?"
A crystal clear silkworm Gu landed lightly on his hand, squirming like a kitten and looking at him with a pair of "innocent" big eyes.
"...Sent by Hakuzo?"
He examined it carefully and was stunned:
"Wait, this thing is artificial intelligence?"
He stared in amazement at the biological + mechanical combination in front of him, feeling that his three views had been refreshed.
Shadow Killer (Ning Yuge) - "Can it help me pick up girls?"
Shadow Killer had just finished a game on the Spirit Realm battlefield. After opening the package, he looked at the "golden bug" in his hand in surprise.
"Hmm... can this pick up girls?"
"Tiancan Gu" looked up at him speechlessly, then lay on his shoulder, as if disliked this guy's breath.
Ning Yuge: “???”
Xuanwu Guardian (Luo Tiangang) - "Can I eat it?"
Luo Tiangang opened the express package, looked at the little bug inside, frowned, and stared at it for a long time.
Then, he frowned and asked, "Is this thing... edible?"
Heavenly Silkworm Gu: “…”
The entire galaxy was quiet.
Sky Sword Armor (Ling Ruoxi) - "Wow! So cute!"
After Ling Ruoxi received the express, she opened it and her eyes lit up immediately:
"Aaaaaah, so cute!!"
She immediately held the Tiancan Gu in her palm, her eyes changed, and she raised it as a pet.
Zero: "Hey! It's not a pet!"
Ling Ruoxi: "Since it's a gift from you, it doesn't matter! It's mine!"
Zero: “???”
Youyu Sword Armor (Ling Ruochen) - "My sister's things are mine!"
Ling Ruochen opened the package, but just as he was about to take a look, Ling Ruoxi snatched it away and patted his head:
"You don't need to look at yours, it's the same as mine, go train!"
You Yu Jian Jia: "..." (with a look of despair)
With the distribution of the six AI silkworm Gu, the mecha technology in the world of immortal cultivation has ushered in a new era!
What they don’t know yet is that this will completely overturn the entire mecha combat system and increase the combat capability of the mecha pilot by more than dozens of times!
Bai Zang looked at all this, smiled, and said softly:
"Boss, the new era you wanted is here."
