The Steel Knight stood about two meters tall, the blades of his Neuronal Armor flipping continuously with his thoughts, while the giant leopard, Gilbert, opened its massive jaws, both mechanical and biological, revealing fearsome teeth. An invisible shockwave swept through the area, leaving the Flame Boys, Spearmen, and Burning Men with one fate: their heads exploded.

Soon, the ground was littered with hundreds of headless corpses.

The mission was triggered once again.

[Mission: Twilight of the Gods]

Difficulty: Dangerous

Mission Brief: The God of Radiation and Gunpowder sits high on the throne. Though it's merely a Genetic Fusion, and the throne simply a product of welded motorcycle turntables, it's dangerous enough for anyone.

Mission Objective: Kill the 'god', annihilate the deities, and instigate the Twilight of the Gods.

Mission Rewards: Experience +100,000, Land of Flames reputation +5,000, Title: Godslayer (Pseudo)

Extra Rewards: Mechanical Puzzle Fragment (1/5) *1, Civilization Secrets *1, Low-level Genetic Transformation Barracks *1

Note: On a planet of Mechanical Civilization, a 'god' that formidable cannot be allowed, even if it's just pretending.

The Mechanical Giant Leopard moved with grace, and amidst the constant stream of attackers, almost none could come close and survive.

On a lookout tower, a Flame Boy wore a fearful expression, his chest heaving violently. The Leopard's height almost matched that of the lookout, and the knight mounted on its back exuded a threat more potent than any god.

As the Giant Leopard passed by, the Flame Boy quietly drew a grenade spear. With malevolent eyes fixed on the knight's retreating figure, he hurled it vigorously.

The Steel Knight, as if having eyes on the back of his head, swiftly reached out and caught the spear.

"Fool!"

The Flame Boy's eyes brightened, and in the next moment, the iron-clad bomb on the spear exploded violently, enveloping the knight in a storm of flames and smoke.

However, as the smoke cleared, a tall figure still sat astride the Leopard. Gilbert, beneath him, instinctively grunted, feeling a slight itch on its back.

'Immune to damage below 3,000 points, huh.'

Gao Gong glanced at his blood volume and, indeed, not a single drop was lost. After testing the armored mode of the Reproductive Soldier Body, he extended his palm, and countless metallic particles condensed from the hand armor, forming a short metal spear.

In the Flame Boy's horrified gaze, the Steel Knight turned, and with a backhanded throw, the spear pierced through the air with a sharp sound burst, striking the lookout made of tires, where a figure suddenly burst apart.

Gao Gong moved forward without facing any significant resistance. After killing 300 to 400 Flame Boys progressively, the enemy could no longer mount an effective defense.

"Was it because you killed too ruthlessly during the day, or are you all plotting something nefarious?"

In Gao Gong's opinion, it was probably both. The regular combat strength of the Flame Motorcycle Faction should be around ten thousand. Any more, and they probably couldn't sustain it.

Soon, he caught sight of the 'Palace of the Sky' above. Rather than calling it a divine hall, it looked more like a Mechanical Fortress or a spacecraft core.

Indeed, a massive floating device!

Excitement flashed across Gao Gong's eyes.

With it, he could even build his own 'Noah's Ark'.

The next moment, rainbow lights shot out from the 'Celestial Hall', gradually enveloping the entire Flame Pass.

"Is this—Planet Environment Simulation Technology?"

...

On the other side, carrying General Quel from the cage, White Bone witnessed the scene.

White Bone gawked at the dazzling display, akin to a descent of the Divine Realm. This wretched place actually had such special effects?

It's actually kinda nice.

General Quel sighed, "Do you think that just by killing the god, you can conquer Flame Pass?"

"Isn't that the case?"

General Quel said coldly, "The god may not be a real deity, but his will has merged with the entirety of Flame Pass. Flame Pass is the World Tree, and numerous deities reside upon the Divine Tree. Even though the gods constantly scheme, once he expands the Divine Kingdom, all gods shall be at his disposal."

White Bone recalled something the boss had once mentioned in casual conversation and his face changed.

"Consciousness Upload Technology!"

"Damn, I've got to reach the Celestial Hall quickly."

"Too late. Once the Divine Domain is deployed, unless the Battle of the Gods ends, not even the 'god' himself can stop it."

White Bone rolled his eyes, "I never said I was going to rescue the leader. I'm going to save my Aphrodite. If that ghostly thing controls her to go against the boss, and our leader accidentally kills her, it would be a disaster!"

General Quel was taken aback, "You're that confident in your leader?"

White Bone's face shone with a look that General Quel couldn't comprehend.

"To us, the boss is synonymous with miracles. How can miracles fail?"

...

At this moment, in Gao Gong's eyes, Flame Pass disappeared. A World Tree emerged, with golden palaces hanging from its branches. In mid-air, there were golden floating compasses, golden statues, a super Beast Fighting Arena, and guardian deities clad in splendid armor, as well as divine maidens weaving among them.

This isn't virtual reality.

Because the greatest characteristic of VR is 'virtual,' while the characteristic of environment simulation technology is 'simulation.'

This technology is generally used to simulate alien surface environments to test the performance of exploration equipment.

But using it to create a 'Divine Domain' is indeed a clever trick.

In the 'universe,' there is no shortage of members of advanced civilizations 'descending' to play 'gods' in Level 1 and Level 2 civilizations to satisfy their quirky interests.

However, most of these people leave after the performance, rarely believing it themselves.

Gao Gong squinted his eyes, the 'Eye of Truth' activated, and the sea surface of the 'Divine Domain' began to steam, a large amount of seawater turned into white mist, in which the silhouette of a giant serpent loomed, its mouth opening so that wherever it passed, the 'Divine Domain' vanished and the scene of Flame Pass reappeared.

"Jörmungandr! Jörmungandr!"

Many 'Divine Beings' began to scream, but in Gao Gong's eyes, these were all lines of code, simulated data generated by the 'Information Terminal.'

'Using cloning technology to produce clones, forming a group consciousness with brain-machine interfaces, then bypassing the firewall with consciousness upload technology to 'occupy' the smart brain, it seems there's a problem with the artificial intelligence at this research institute, which requires this method to start up.'

A vast amount of mist began to devour the roots of the World Tree, with many divine beings and maidens being engulfed, and the 'deities' on the Divine Tree could no longer bear it, in the next moment, the Light God, Mighty God, War God all descended, their massive bodies radiating light, and the ground where Gao Gong stood visibly became desert-like.

[You are affected by the environment of 'Desert Planet: Thorn 3,' blood volume decreases at a rate of 10 points per second]

To endure most planetary environments is the first step to becoming a 'multi-planet species,' Gao Gong thought, and the skin inside his armor changed, the 'Desert Skin' became rougher, more granular, and the decline in blood volume was reduced by 3 points from 10.

'Is it still not enough? Well, there've been lots of mechanical transformations recently, while the biological transformation rate hasn't changed; with the next biological transformation, I'll generally be able to break through the threshold of 'multi-planet species.'

Generally speaking, 'multi-planet species' is an issue after level 30; for some ordinary players, it might be something to consider after level 40 or 50. After all, 'bloodline sublimation' is a comprehensive measure of various attributes.

But Gao Gong is following the fusion route.

These 'deities' slowly walked towards him, each step causing the earth to crack, seawater to boil, and magma to erupt from the ground.

"Environment simulation technology is not meant for you to use like this."

Gao Gong's spine, each segmented vertebra enveloped in metal, began to separate and extend, forming a four-meter-long mechanical banner lance.

Gao Gong grabbed the lance in a reverse grip, with the electronic banner below the lance tip appearing like flowing electric light as 'Basic Thunder Control' activated. Centered on the lance, within 500 by 500 meters, ionized particles in the air were frantically absorbed, and the entire lance trembled with a 'buzz.'

The giant leopard under him responded by suddenly dropping its body weight, driving the lance's butt firmly into the ground.

In an instant, countless currents began to rampage around, directly covering the 500 by 500-meter domain.

The three giant deity figures suddenly froze, eyes turning white, their divine bodies oscillating between presence and absence.

At the same time, countless flying shuttles ejected from the steel armor, forming a spindle-shaped energy cannon, with three beams of light flickering and disappearing.

In the next moment, the three deities fell, their figures shrinking back into human forms, with a large hole in their chests, and the plastic brain-machine interface at the back of their heads bursting with a 'pop.'

[You killed 'War God (Pseudo),' experience +5000]

[You killed 'Light God (Pseudo),' experience +5000]

[You killed 'Mighty God (Pseudo),' experience +5000]

Amidst the fog, the silhouette of the giant leopard Gilbert moved slowly, devouring all the 'Divine Domain' it passed; no deity descending could withstand the power of one shot.

The twilight of the gods descended.

...

Meanwhile, in a mechanical operation room in Sky City, a middle-aged man in a suit was sweating profusely as he operated the instruments.

According to his plan, the 'Twilight of the Gods' should at least hold the opponent for an hour, but now, it seemed unlikely to even last ten minutes.

He glanced at the 'God of Radiation' in the Great Hall, whose face remained expressionless, though the veins in his hands bulged.

Could this conceited being actually feel nervous?

"Hold him off for at least 10 minutes, so I can release the 'Godslaying Body,' hurry up, useless!"

The 'god' glanced coldly at the middle-aged man, whose gaze seemed almost tangible, freezing his spirit.

'Damn, if it weren't for a stroke of luck allowing him to devour the artificial intelligence, how would it be his turn to act arrogant!'

Fortunately, the 'god' still had some sense, slowly standing up, amidst powerful digestion sounds, the wounds on his body began to heal rapidly.

At the same time, in the most secret part of the 'Palace of the Sky,' in each genetic cultivation capsule, limbless infants began to open their eyes.

Their gaze filled with black light.

And outside the glass, Valkyrie had her limbs pressed against the glass, her nose flattened, and her small face stuck like a little piglet, saliva drooling uncontrollably.

Her eyes also gradually turned red, like blooming flower buds.

Meanwhile, countless deity corpses lay on the ground, amidst the dense fog, the 'World-Devouring Serpent' began to engulf the 'Main Divine Hall.'

A figure slowly walked out.

The twilight of the gods was about to reach its climax.
