101: Chapter 101 Fourth Order! Silicon-based! I've evolved!

The moment he added the points, Su Ming's world exploded.

"Deep Blue, add them for me!"

With that single sentence, a landslide and tsunami erupted deep within his consciousness!

160,100 mass points transformed into the most turbulent fuel!

Boom—!

mass points poured down from the System panel, crazily flooding every inch of his bones and every strand of muscle fiber.

On the panel, the numbers in the "True Mass" column began to scroll upward at a speed the naked eye couldn't keep up with!

[True Mass: 10130kg ... 15000kg ... 20000kg — —]

...

Twenty tons!

Thirty tons!

Fifty tons!

Su Ming sat cross-legged on the bed, a dazzling metallic luster rising to the surface of his body.

It wasn't Source Energy being released, but the pure density of matter soaring visibly to the naked eye!

Dense "crackling" explosions came from deep within his bones, like someone setting off firecrackers inside him; every sound was his skeleton enduring extreme reconstruction.

Does it hurt?

Of course it hurts.

But does it feel good?

It feels great!

It feels so good it makes my scalp tingle!

[True Mass: 60000kg ... 80000kg — —]

Sixty tons!

Eighty tons!

Su Ming's body uncontrollably floated slightly.

The blood in his veins seemed to have been heated to its boiling point, and his temples throbbed violently.

He could feel his density approaching a certain critical point; something inside him was waking up, surging, roaring, and desperately trying to break out of its shell.

The mass points were evaporating at a speed visible to the naked eye.

160,000, 140,000, 120,000...

Every jump of the numbers made his heart twitch!

Su Ming felt like a balloon blown to its limit, ready to burst the next second.

[True Mass: 92000kg ... 96000kg ... 99000kg — —]

It's coming.

Just a little more!

His consciousness stared at that final threshold on the panel!

[True Mass: 100000kg!]

[Ding!]

[Host's True Mass has reached 100000kg!]

[Congratulations Host, promoted to Tier 4 Gold!]

[Conditions for second life form promotion met!]

[Activation starting!]

Boom!!!

The very instant True Mass broke through the 100,000kg mark!

Inside Su Ming's body, a miniature nuclear bomb was detonated!

The invisible barrier between Tier 3 Silver and Tier 4 Gold was smashed through by the extreme mass of 100,000kg!

There was no probing, no breaking-in, and none of that mystical process of "comprehending the Laws of Heaven and Earth."

It was pure, unreasonable, overpowering skill with brute force.

A visible energy vortex exploded around him.

The concrete floor of the low-rent apartment began to crack beneath his feet, the fissures spreading in all directions with him as the center.

The gray plaster on the ceiling peeled off in sheets, and the groan of twisting steel bars came from within the walls.

Not just his floor.

A muffled sound of something snapping came from downstairs, followed by the floor below that.

The load-bearing structure of the entire building was wailing.

"Damn it! The building is going to collapse!"

Su Ming's pupils constricted sharply!

"I've activated Mass Concealment!"

He looked at the Sequence panel—

[Mass Concealment] icon was gray, and a tiny refresh symbol in the bottom right corner was slowly rotating.

No response.

"Damn it!"

The skill was reset by the System the moment he leveled up!

A hundred-ton humanoid behemoth, if pressed onto a floor of less than one square meter like this!

This was no longer a matter of just smashing through the floor; the entire building would absolutely capsize and collapse, turning into a pile of ruins!

Hundreds of households would all be buried with him!

At the critical moment—the icon lit up.

His body was faster than his consciousness!

[Mass Concealment] activated!

The terrifying mass of one hundred tons was forcibly compressed, locked, and Sealed within his body in 0.1 seconds!

The weight presented to the outside world plummeted to a normal human level, and the gravitational field that was destroying the building's structure came to an abrupt halt.

The last piece of gray plaster from the ceiling "plop" fell onto his shoulder.

Only the mess everywhere and the hideous cracks on the walls proved that everything that had just happened was not an illusion.

Su Ming gasped for air. His back was drenched in cold sweat.

That was close!

He, Su Ming, had almost become a murderer who "sat and collapsed a residential building with his butt."

Just then, a series of brand-new System notification sounds exploded in his mind.

[Ding! Congratulations Host for promoting to Tier 4 Gold!]

[Life form has evolved—Carbon-based Mortal Body → Silicon-based Fusion!]

[Second life form successfully activated!]

Silicon-based?!

Su Ming's heart jolted, and he looked down at his hands.

He saw that beneath his skin, countless dark gold star-track patterns lit up, looking like molten lava, or perhaps intricate circuits, starting from his heart and slowly spreading to his limbs.

Silvery-white liquid was flowing beneath his skin.

That was not blood.

Or rather, it was no longer the "blood" he knew.

Liquid metal.

His blood was turning into silvery-white liquid metal.

He could feel that every cellular structure within him was undergoing a earth-shattering leap.

This was an evolution of his life level!

Su Ming clenched his fist.

"Creeak—"

The tables and chairs in the room all shifted half an inch backward simultaneously.

Nothing had touched them.

The dust gathered on the windowsill floated upward against gravity for half a second before slowly falling back down.

Su Ming was terrified.

This was... the prototype of a "gravitational field"!

His body was distorting the surrounding gravity.

It wasn't a skill, but a passive disturbance to space caused by his silicon-based body.

A planet naturally possesses gravity.

And he was evolving in the direction of a celestial body.

...

This wasn't over yet!

More notifications followed one after another, crazily scrolling across his field of vision!

[Sequence 1: Mass Amplification—Evolved. Passive effect significantly improved.]

[Sequence 2: Mass Reconstruction—Evolved. Added passive trait: Body Reshaping.]

[Sequence 3: Mass Devouring—Evolved.]

[Unlocked Devouring sub-sequence: Kinetic Siphon.]

[Unlocked Gravity sequence: Gravitational Domain (Prototype).]

The three core sequences all leaped simultaneously!

Two brand-new sequences unlocked synchronously!

Kinetic Siphon?

Gravitational Domain?

Just hearing the names made them sound awesome!

Su Ming was shaking with excitement, preparing to study these god-tier skills properly.

However.

The System would never let him enjoy it for too long.

A red warning box popped up without warning, directly covering all the golden notifications.

[Warning!! Silicon-based body reconstruction not yet complete! Current carbon-based structure cannot support full activation of silicon-based cells!]

[Warning! Energy overload! Detected that Host forcibly suppressed energy release, causing internal energy circulation disorder!]

What the hell?

Su Ming was stunned.

The next second, an indescribable, intense pain exploded from his heart!

The energy that was reshaping his cells suddenly went out of control.

The powder keg was ignited instantly, bombing everywhere inside his body.

The dark gold patterns beneath his skin spread crazily from his chest, ferociously expanding toward his limbs; wherever they passed, silvery-white blood began to boil, and his bones crackled incessantly!

The [Mass Concealment] he had just activated was now the most lethal catalyst.

With nowhere for the energy to release, it began to crazily backfire on himself!

The siliconization process was forcibly pushed to the limit, and his body instantly fell into a devastating energy overload!

Su Ming was struggling with whether to turn off [Mass Concealment] and release the excess energy.

He looked down at the floor beneath his feet, which was already covered in cracks.

But there were people downstairs!

[Warning! Energy overload! Host's vital signs are dropping rapidly!]

[Warning! To protect the Host, 'Evolutionary Hibernation' mechanism is forcibly activated!]

Boom!!

An overwhelming wave of sleepiness instantly drowned his consciousness.

Su Ming was in severe pain all over, and the scene before his eyes began to distort, spin, and blur.

System-level forced shutdown.

Su Ming's consciousness began to blur; he tried desperately to keep his eyes open.

In his daze, only one last thought remained.

"Damn it... tomorrow I still have the exam..."

Before he could even curse the word "exam", his consciousness disconnected.

Su Ming's eyes went black, his head tilted, and he fell straight onto the bed.

He blacked out on the spot and fell into a deep sleep.

The low-rent apartment returned to silence.

Only the light from the streetlamp outside shone in through the dirty glass, reflecting on the dark gold star-track patterns still flickering slightly on his skin.

His phone screen lit up.

A message from "Shen Qingci" lay quietly in the notification bar.

[Good luck tomorrow.]

The phone went dark.

The only sound in the room was Su Ming's steady and deep breathing.

And...

The numbers jumping on the alarm clock.

23:47.

Less than nine hours until the Jiangcheng College Entrance Exam!

...
