Chapter 5 Prosthetic body upgrade and development direction

“I’m sorry.” V said from the side, “It seems that if you don’t want to die right away, your only choice is to be an ordinary citizen, at least you can still Live a few more years.

The good news is that after doing this, you can at least afford the latest operating system prosthetic body and not become disabled.”

Lil didn’t say anything, just in his head. Suddenly I remembered that the story of "Shadows of the Past" had an ending where the legendary mercenary V chose to be an ordinary citizen.

Give up your reliance, possess a powerful prosthetic body and ability, choose to save your life, no longer be able to wear any combat prosthetic body, and become a real common person——

You can be hit by a car or killed by a stray bullet at any time in the game.

Lil was lying on the operating chair, looking at the physical examination report on the tablet, and said:

"I choose the third option - I want to buy something that is suitable for novices. A device for prosthetics and hackers to get started with - the old-fashioned one Then help me install a brain-computer interface and replace it with a prosthetic eye."

The prosthetic doctor showed a surprised look:

"So you have to use traditional technology in 2076. , be a traditional technician?

As luck would have it, I happen to have a batch of outdated equipment on hand, which are absolutely top-notch in 2020, but no one uses them now.

As for brain-computer interfaces and prosthetic eyes, these are indeed one of the few basic prosthetics that you can install. At least you can still use Mewtwo or something like that. "

"Then I want to give this friend some good stuff. Can I get a discount? "

"Look at how big the order is - let's pay for it to offset the cost of erasing the official serial number, which is not cheap in Atlanta. ”

“Deal, nice cooperation, doctor. ”

V, who was standing aside, was even more surprised - to be honest, for a moment, V thought that Lear would steal the deposit and replace himself with an advanced operating system - that is, a central nervous system implant.

Unexpectedly, he really planned to upgrade his prosthetic body to his thug.

"I have to say, I have changed my mind, and you are still smart - then I will not be polite."

The brain-computer interface mainly only affects the brain, which is this The most basic implant in the world is also the most cost-effective implant for Lille.

This thing allows Lear to read the contents of some separate chips and display them on the prosthetic eye.

The eye was replaced with the Qilusi prosthetic eye type 2 from a major manufacturer. Considering the burden on the body, only one eye was replaced. It was a bargain and only one was installed.

After all, I am not a combatant.

While V was undergoing surgery, Lille was studying his physical examination report in detail.

There are many physical examination items, including compatibility tests for various types of cells - epidermal cells, bone cells, cardiomyocytes, kidney cells, etc., as well as immune system strength tests and anti-allergy tests, etc.

From this report, we can see where medical technology has improved in 2076.

While checking, Lille searched for some information on the Internet, such as what methods are used to test the suitability of bone cells and so on.

I have to say that the service provided by the company’s prosthetic doctor is very attentive and flawless.

It took about two hours for Lille to read all the reports and have a general understanding of the principles, methods and purposes of these tests - but to be honest, this was really very efficient.

Especially considering that he also has to deal with the analgesia of the immune response.

【Affected by Creation: Prosthetic Immune Response (Weak)】

[Effect: Slight mental disturbance caused by pain and dizziness]

[Remove the interference? 】

【Removed】

Although my thoughts will not be shaken by this, the pain is real and it is a wonderful feeling.

[After reading, science and technology points +5]

[Prosthetic eye has been implanted: Qilusi Type 2]

[Prosthetic body has been implanted: Network Surveillance Public Version Brain-Computer Interface]

[First implantation type, technology point rewards increased]

[Current technology points: 50]

It seems that the so-called technology points will be obtained when you are exposed to new technologies.

According to the system, technology points can be used to help one understand and master technology. Lille thought about it and generated a request in his head.

[General technology: prosthetic implant surgery (entry level)]

[Current learning progress: 60%] [Technology points required for rapid mastery: 8 points]

However, if he is just getting started, he will be able to fully master entry-level prosthetic implant surgery with a little more time, so there is no need to spend points.

Lear looked at the time - it was the eighth hour since he came to this world.

It will be dawn in another world soon.

"Hey, system, what should I do in the other world?"

[In the other world, the host can complete basic activities and try to do some simple learning]

[The results of the action will be displayed here in text form. 】

Chi.

The door of the operating room opened and V came out, looking very refreshed.

“This is the surgery list. Subcutaneous armor, recoil control, tendon strengthening, bone reconstruction, bionic joints, Klenchikov, neural coordinator, blood pump, and reaction coordinator are all what you asked for, A combat prosthesis without a complicated floppy drive, plus your goods, the total is 200,000 euros after discounts."

"One-time payment, V, payment."

"This is still the case. It’s the first time I’ve spent so much money and it feels weird, but now I’m almost superhuman, let’s go kill that”

The prosthetic doctor hurriedly raised his hand: "Don't say it here, or I will call the police!"

V looked over, and Lille shrugged.

"Okay, okay, let's pay and leave. Where is my goods?"

With a bang, V closed the trunk and sat in the driver's seat.

"What now? Let's just go in and kill that Cai?"

Lear glanced at the fierce female war goddess: "I know that the prosthetic body has increased your confidence, but it shouldn't be to the point where you become a cyberpsycho, right?"

"Speak directly if you have something to say. , don’t keep talking about these things.”

“I just read Kang Tao’s report on Atlanta’s underground forces, and I have to say that there really isn’t much in this place. A space for underground activities."

"Yeah, it's very boring." V shrugged, "In addition to working, I feel like even the gangsters are working overtime."

"But. I still found the person we needed, Steven Knott, the boss of the Veterans Association, found him, and we negotiated a deal.”

"What the hell?" V asked confused, "I thought you were talking about a gang, some kind of association."

"Oh, their gang here is called this - you have been here for so long Don't know? They are like the Sixth Street Gang in Night City.

But here, the gangs are all famous. I won’t call myself the So-and-So Gang - Urban Culture.”

V started the car and said expressionlessly: “Well, I know, I’m just a little surprised by their strange naming habit. What business are they talking about? "

She can't say that she has been here for so long and she is still looking for those XX gangs, right?

No wonder they are all poor people who work dirty jobs and have little money.

Lille did not think much and continued: "First of all, we have too few people. We need hackers to create a safe operating environment. Nott happens to have the resources, and behind him should be military technology. People in Kangtao have no pressure on them."

"I thought you were a hacker genius - you can fix network equipment with an old computer."

Lille shrugged: "Not yet. Anyway, we need to find this Nott. In addition to asking him to help, we also need to ask him to provide us with road insurance."

"Let him help us." An unknown person is telling you the truth?" V joked, "It sounds like the electric light in the toilet is looking for death. Are you so sure that he won't kill us halfway?"

"Don't worry." Lille looked at the street scene flashing outside the window, "I will make him an offer he can't refuse."

V looked over in surprise: "You want me to point a gun at him? ?”

“I mean, everyone makes money.

This local gang doesn’t make much money to begin with. Can you believe that a large part of the funding for such a gang comes from veterans’ subsidies in the new United States?”

Liel looked at it. The harmonious society outside the window makes me sigh in my heart.

In 2076, not everything is like Night City.

There is a reason why V can’t survive here.
