Infinite Job Transfers Starting from Mechanic Chapter 1168 - 620: Limit Attribute

Formerly, Su Yu was convinced that the Supreme Consciousness had singled him out, intending for him to act as a successor to take over the mantle of the God of Objects. However, it now seems clear that the truth is far more complex than a simple succession.

The Supreme Consciousness is not the only entity with its sights set on Su Yu. Numerous formidable beings lurking within the voids of the universe appear to be quietly orchestrating events, guiding his efforts to forge this Super Creation Machine.

Their objective, however, does not seem to be his ascension to the status of the Supreme Consciousness. Instead, their ultimate goal is the completion of this singular Creation Machine.

The situation is quite peculiar. Su Yu conceived the blueprints for his Creation Machine back when he was merely a Fifth-Order individual. At that juncture, despite his formidable technological prowess, he was still an insignificant speck among the myriad civilizations navigating the cosmos.

Entities like the Human Empire and the Mechanical Sect certainly wielded greater technological dominance than Su Yu. If he possessed the ability to design this machine, why couldn't these superior civilizations have done the same? Why was Su Yu the only one capable of bringing it to fruition? What, exactly, makes him so extraordinary? It was these doubts that led Su Yu to question why he was the chosen participant.

If there is any aspect of Su Yu that stands out, it is his Profession Panel. Even now, he has yet to glimpse its true limitations.

"Could it be tied to this?" Su Yu wondered, contemplating whether the existence of the panel had somehow been divulged. But when he tried to interrogate the panel internally regarding whether its existence had been compromised, the system responded that Su Yu was the only consciousness aware of its presence.

It appears the panel is not the reason. The logic is straightforward: if the panel possessed the strength to pique the interest of cosmic-level gods, it would surely be aware of its own exposure. Since it reports that its secrets remain intact, the mystery must be unrelated to the panel. Conversely, if it weren't powerful enough to detect its own exposure, it wouldn't be significant enough to warrant the attention of such divine beings.

"If the panel isn't the cause, then what is?" Su Yu searched for answers but could not find a logical explanation. He speculated that it might trace back to his initial creation of the machine and his departure from the Primordial Universe. After deep contemplation, he opted for direct inquiry. Within that timeless dimension, he demanded, "Why me?"

Silence was his only reply. It seemed the masters behind the curtain preferred not to engage with him. Observing this, Su Yu let out a chilly laugh and initiated a standoff. Since these hidden puppet-masters refused to communicate, he would not cooperate with their agenda for free.

As Su Yu ceased his work, the nearly finished Super Creation Machine remained stationary, drifting slowly in the void at the center of the cosmos. After an indeterminate period, information spontaneously manifested in Su Yu's mind. He was startled; the shadows had finally responded. This intelligence appeared so suddenly it felt as if it had always resided in his memories, as intrinsic as his own limbs.

This information revealed the concept of limits. Every living entity is bound by constraints—power, intellect, physique, and lifespan are all finite. A common human without the benefits of spiritual energy or advanced technology lives fewer than a century, a clear manifestation of such limits. From an informational standpoint, these restraints appear as inherent attributes.

Previously, while utilizing the Number God Mechanic, Su Yu had modified creature attributes without realizing that such limitations were baked into the fabric of life itself. These limits can be challenged and even surpassed, but they can never be dismissed. When a person reaches the Third-Order and enjoys a lifespan of thousands of years, they haven't destroyed their limits; they have merely shifted them. The new constraints still dictate their eventual demise.

Even the enigmatic and powerful Three Highest Gods seem to operate within specific boundaries, keeping their influence contained within Subspace to avoid disrupting the Material Universe. But Su Yu is fundamentally different.

Su Yu analyzed his own status: [Su Yu, Standard Type-1 Human Gene, No Spiritual Energy Talent, Natural Physical Lifespan 87 years, Natural Soul Lifespan 327 years...] This was his intended fate. Under normal circumstances, he would never awaken his spiritual energy and would perish within 87 years. His soul, even if preserved through mechanical body-swapping, would eventually fail after 327 years due to memory degradation.

These are not merely temporal destinies; they are his physical laws, much like the structural integrity of steel. However, the contradiction lies in how Su Yu currently disregards these attributes. Logically, as he gained Extraordinary Professions and cultivated spiritual energy, his limit profile should have updated automatically to reflect his current status, perhaps to something like a Sixth-Order limit with millions of years to his name. Instead, his records reflect the original, lower constraints—implying he has completely bypassed them.

This is precisely why cosmic-level gods have turned their attention to him. Although they possess immense knowledge, they remain trapped within their own, albeit immense, limits. Su Yu, possessing no limits, is the only one capable of finalizing the Super Creation Machine and stabilizing the universe.

"So, this is the reason..." Su Yu finally grasped the situation. Everyone in existence has a maximum potential level, a ceiling they must navigate. While that ceiling can be raised, it remains an anchor. Su Yu, however, operates like a paradox—possessing the attributes of a low-tier inhabitant while exerting the influence of an infinite being.
