Chapter 129

But Lin Qi had no such intention.

In fact.

If it weren't for the fact that pure mechanical forces are constrained by the Anti-Organic Equation, Lin Qi wouldn't have thought about building a biological army.

Therefore.

The idea of building the "Yarilo Iron Cavalry" didn't actually appear only after Firefly arrived.

It had always been there.

Her appearance simply filled in the final missing piece.

So Lin Qi replied.

"The core of the Iron Cavalry will still be based on the Swarm Mother's design. We won't change that, so it shouldn't require many Zerg materials. As for the combat mechs and such, we'll use our own, combined with Apostle extracts. The Yarilo Iron Cavalry will only be stronger!"

"Whatever you say, my dear." Ruan Mei was noncommittal.

On these matters, she would never defy Lin Qi's ideas.

Building a clone Iron Cavalry legion was simply no trouble at all.

In fact...

She could even replicate a portion of the Swarm itself.

But since Lin Qi hadn't mentioned it, she didn't intend to do so.

If she did, Lin Qi would look like a "Lord Ravager" rather than a genius.

Until now.

Ruan Mei finally fully understood why Nanook had looked at Lin Qi first, while Nous had come later.

Because Lin Qi was truly practicing the Path of Destruction at every single moment.

The vast majority of his research was also aimed at increasing power and expanding the scope of destruction.

One could only say...

He was not a Lord Ravager, yet he surpassed one.

Ruan Mei couldn't help but think that once the Iron Cavalry legion was completed, with the Iron Cavalry as low-end combat power, the Geothermal power as high-end combat power, and Lin Qi's destructive weapons, few factions in the universe would be able to stop such a scale.

For a moment.

Ruan Mei felt a sense of emotion.

It probably wouldn't be many years before a faction second only to the IPC, the Luofu Luofu Xianzhou, and the Family would take shape in the universe.

And the only things missing compared to those factions were a lack of Emanators and the absence of an Aeon behind them.

"An Aeon?"

Perhaps after some time...

Ruan Mei shook her head, casting the thought aside.

She wasn't even sure how much time she had left herself.

But before that, she could certainly help Lin Qi a bit more.

After leaving Ruan Mei, Lin Qi dove into the dream space.

He continued to study "probability."

This was the most urgent matter at hand.

Otherwise, keeping the plot influence points saved up wasn't a good idea; he always felt the urge to pull.

Therefore.

After finishing the tasks at hand, Lin Qi's first priority was to return and continue his research.

Fortunately, he already had a lead, so this time he just needed to keep going.

Moreover.

With ten times the time, Lin Qi had plenty of it.

He cracked the secret of how the Lord of Silence manipulated "probability" without even spending a few years in the dream space.

First.

One must understand the thing being manipulated; otherwise, it cannot be executed.

Second.

The success rate is not one hundred percent.

Theoretically, it cannot even approach it.

At most, it can only infinitely approach it.

But even so.

It was still a decent ability.

This was true whether used in the laboratory or in combat.

For example.

The preparation of a certain material requires a certain probability to succeed, but as long as one uses Polka Polka Kakamu's ability, it can approach one hundred percent.

Thus.

The efficiency of experiments would be greatly improved.

Combat goes without saying.

Polka Polka Kakamu had repeatedly assassinated geniuses successfully by relying on this.

However.

Lin Qi didn't value the improvements in these two areas too much; after all, for him, it was just icing on the cake.

What Lin Qi wanted was to increase the "gold" pull rate in his gacha.

Simply put, a "cheat."

But obviously.

He still couldn't understand the "card pool," or rather, what the system actually was.

But then again.

If he could understand it, he wouldn't need to increase the probability at all.

So...

Ineffective for gacha pulls?

Lin Qi felt a bit regretful.

But just as he was about to give up, he remembered the Felix Felicis.

This Curio was something he could understand.

As long as it truly brought good luck, even if only a little, he could indirectly influence the card pool through it.

Holding onto the mentality of giving it a try, Lin Qi applied "probability magic" to it.

Then he used it again.

And then.

He began his long-awaited limited card pool pulls.

"Nearly two hundred pulls, let's see what comes out!"

"At least..."

"One gold, right?"

But the result exceeded Lin Qi's expectations.

It was actually...

Three golds!

85, three golden technologies! An outrageous machine converter!

Over the past few years, Lin Qi had accumulated quite a few plot influence points.

But he hadn't pulled once.

He had only used up his ordinary influence points.

The reason was that he wanted to do something big.

Or rather, find a suitable opportunity.

And after learning that Polka Polka Kakamu could manipulate probability, his mind became active.

However, until just now, he hadn't really held much hope.

After all, no matter how powerful Polka Polka Kakamu was, she couldn't influence the system.

So.

He prepared to use a shortcut, influencing the Felix Felicis to subsequently influence the card pool's winning rate.

Originally, he was just holding onto the mentality of giving it a try.

Unexpectedly.

It was actually effective?

Otherwise.

How could he get three golds in nearly two hundred pulls?

One could say it was one gold per pity pull.

Or even higher!

This was completely unimaginable in the past.

Before starting the pulls, Lin Qi had even held onto the hope that getting one gold would count as the Felix Felicis doing its job.

Three golds?

Obviously.

After changing the probability, the gold pull rate had increased.

Lin Qi glanced at the card pool information.

Overall, the number of white and blue technologies hadn't changed much.

The changes were in the purple and golden technologies.

Simply put.

The pity pull that was originally highly likely to be a purple technology had now become a golden technology!

"Really nice!"

After a sigh of admiration, Lin Qi collected his thoughts and began to examine these three golden technologies.

First was the first one, the Memory Disk.

The production technology Lin Qi had pulled.

The effect of this hard drive was also very simple.

It was to extract, delete, or modify the memories of others, or his own.

Only one disk was needed to achieve the effect.

However, to view the content on the disk, a corresponding playback machine was needed.

Fortunately, the production technology for this machine was also included.

Lin Qi thought for a moment.

This technology should be able to be combined with Light Cones.

If used well, perhaps...

"Could it replace the production base of Light Cones?"

Lin Qi couldn't help but think.

He had to admit.

The Light Cones he produced now still required him to first obtain another Light Cone, then separate it using a Time Cloth before he could insert the one he wanted.

But what if the Memory Disk itself could serve as the "base"?

Would that count as...

Stealing the authority of the Aeon of Memory?

Additionally.

Even if it couldn't be used as a Light Cone base, the technology itself was very valuable.

For example, interrogating prisoners.

Or transmitting knowledge to others.

It would be incredibly convenient.

"I'll try it later."

Lin Qi turned his attention to the other machine.

[Biological Breeding Observation Book (Gold): An atlas that provides a developmental environment for real eggs and larvae, and by using the button to adjust the speed of time flow, can quickly raise eggs and larvae to adulthood.]

"This is a biological and time-type item."

Obviously.

As long as an item involves time, its quality won't be low.

This item was no exception.

Through it, one could allow the biological organisms one wanted to cultivate to quickly reach maturity.

However, it was best for insect types.

Mentioning insects.

Lin Qi thought of the Swarm from the Swarm Disaster.

They were also insects.

So theoretically, this item could be used to breed the Swarm!

And it would be...

Large-scale breeding!

"I was just preparing to build my own Iron Cavalry, and I pulled this item. Is my luck too good? I can only say it's truly worthy of being the modified Felix Felicis."

At this moment.

Lin Qi was considering using this item to cultivate the Swarm.

And subsequently convert them into the necessary materials for the Iron Cavalry.

He suddenly remembered.

Ruan Mei was still saying earlier that materials were hard to collect, but now, weren't they easy to collect?

Who said the Swarm weren't insects?

The only thing to be careful about was not to let things get out of hand.

If he let the Swarm breed too much, it would likely cause big problems.

And the first one to encounter it would be Yarilo.

So.

After thinking it over, Lin Qi decided not to make it public and only use it within his own laboratory cave-heaven.

As long as the material requirements were met, he would seal this item away.

That should be foolproof.

As for the last golden-quality technology.

How should he put it?

Originally, Lin Qi wanted a "Time Machine" or a "What-If Phone Booth."

After all, as long as these two items were present, most other items seemed very ordinary.

But now it seemed.

There were quite a few golden technologies in the Doraemon world.

It wasn't easy to pull them.

However.

The effect of this third golden item was so special that even if Lin Qi had only pulled this one, he would have been satisfied.

Lin Qi even felt that its utility wasn't inferior to the Time Machine.

The improvement to combat power was quite considerable.

One could even say...

Outrageous.

This was Lin Qi's evaluation of this item.

Just imagining its effect made it feel heaven-defying.

[Machine Transfer Machine: This item can transfer the abilities of a machine to a human body.
