Thirteenth month of death

Chapter 180 Yang Ya's Danger
On the other hand, while Wudao was stirring up trouble in another world, Li Daosheng and his group also returned to [Thirteenth Month].

At this moment, there was no one in [Thirteenth Moon], only Gu Xi was floating in the air, and she seemed to have fallen asleep.

"Hey, what do you mean? No reward at all?" Hua Que shouted to Gu Xi.

Gu Xi opened her eyes and looked down: "Hah... Welcome back, everyone."

"Because you have already obtained the fortune book and found the theme of the fortune book, the reward should have appeared directly in your fortune book when you return here."

"Now, everyone can't stay here for long. Please use the extra time you received as a reward from the Thirteenth Month and return to your own world."

Gu Xi said.

Li Daosheng and the other two immediately opened the fortune book and started to check it.

seven days...

Another seven days of extra time. Can I go back this time?

That world...

He had mixed emotions.

At this moment, two bright lights appeared beside him. Huaque and Renou had already left.

At this moment, in the huge [Thirteenth Month], only Li Daosheng and Gu Xi were left.

"You really can't go back." Gu Xi slowly descended and stood in front of Li Daosheng.

This was the first time that Li Daosheng looked at Gu Xi at such a close distance.

"Why?" he asked knowingly.

Gu Xi raised an eyebrow. "You ask me? Shouldn't you know the reason better?"

Li Daosheng understood.

This Gu Xi indeed has two states, one is the "human" state, and the other seems to be possessed by [Thirteenth Moon].

"Have everyone else successfully found the theme and returned to their native world?" Li Daosheng asked.

Gu Xi shook her head: "No, there is another one, and it's almost time for him to die."

"Who?"

"Yang Ya," Gu Xi glanced at Li Daosheng, "the one with the metal legs."

Is it her...

"How about it, are you interested in helping her?" Gu Xi suddenly asked.

Li Daosheng raised his eyebrows: "Can you help?"

"In principle, I can't, but... you're different."

Gu Xi sneered: "I'm not like that blind person. I've noticed your abnormality a long time ago."

"Aren't you afraid that it will hear it?" When Li Daosheng said this, he pointed his chin to the sky, indicating that this place was in the [Thirteenth Month].

"Don't worry, its will is not here." Gu Xi yawned, "Are you going to help her? If not, I'll leave."

Li Daosheng was silent for a moment: "Will there be any danger?"

"Are you asking yourself or Yang Ya?"

"All."

"Staying home also carries the risk of being killed by an earthquake. In my opinion," Gu Xi crossed her legs and flew up, "since you don't have a world of your own, why not go into Yang Ya's world to kill some time? It's better than being stuck in this hellhole..."

He didn't finish his words, this time he was not forcibly controlled, but stopped himself.

"Okay, let me go."

Li Daosheng nodded.

Originally, according to his plan, if he still couldn't return to his own world this time, he planned to go to the Zhonglü world.

But when I think of Yang Ya... in that world haunted by evil spirits, the doubts Yang Ya discovered also helped everyone.

"Hey, I knew you would agree."

Gu Xi rolled over and "stood" in the air.

A white light shone from his hand, and he said, "I will first show you everything that happened to her, and then see how you find her yourself."

"it is good."

Li Daosheng nodded in agreement.

There was a flash of light, a door appeared, and the door opened slightly.

Li Daosheng was engulfed by the light, and his figure turned into a stream of data-like light and entered the gate.

The lively expression on Gu Xi's face immediately returned to calm after Li Daosheng disappeared.

"I recognized you a long time ago." "You haven't even changed your face..."

----

A dazzling red light flashed before my eyes. I lay on the operating table, feeling the cold metal instruments stirring in my legs.

The anesthetic was wearing off and the pain was coming back like a tide.

"Don't move." The doctor's voice came from above. "It will be ready soon."

I clenched my teeth and sweat streamed down my temples.

This underground clinic is hidden in an abandoned factory in District 7, and the air is filled with the smell of engine oil and disinfectant.

Through the cracks in the ceiling, you can see the flashing neon lights outside. The brilliant colors are spread out in the rain like spilled paint.

"Okay." The doctor patted me, "Let's try."

I propped myself up and looked at my left leg. A mechanical transmission sound rang out and I stood up crookedly. The awkward mechanical sound was a bit annoying.

"It's a military-grade prosthesis, the latest model. It made a slight noise the first time it was activated, but that died down after that." The doctor handed me a mirror. "It's much better than the civilian version you tinkered with before."

In the mirror, my left leg has a metallic luster and the lines are simple and smooth.

I tried lifting my leg, putting it down, walking, jumping... and the mechanical transmission sound disappeared. Moreover, it was very flexible, even more obedient than my original right leg.

"Credit points?" the doctor asked.

I took out the encryption chip and threw it to him: "The remaining installments."

"You know the rules," the doctor said, inserting the chip into his terminal. "If you don't return it by the due date, I'll take your leg back."

I laughed and sat up from the operating table.

This newly replaced military-grade mechanical left leg no longer feels out of place. I move it and feel the connection between the artificial nerves and the natural nerves.

The discomfort is still there but it will go away quickly, something I have experienced several times before.

This time, the leg should last a long time.

Sudden.

The door of the clinic was suddenly pushed open and a man in a black windbreaker walked in.

He was wearing a hood and a respirator covering his face, leaving only his eyes exposed.

"Sir, I cannot accept anyone without an appointment." The doctor's hand had already reached for the pulse pistol on his waist.

"I need a hacker," he said bluntly.

The doctor raised his eyebrows and turned to look at me: "Looking for you."

Who is this person?

Why do you know I'm changing legs here today?
The man turned to me and said, "I heard you can hack into the firewall in Upper City?"

I stood up, my new mechanical legs bringing me great strength.

"That depends on the reward."

"Five hundred thousand credits."

I raised an eyebrow.

That price would have been enough for me to pay for all the renovations and still buy a decent apartment downtown.

"Target?"

"Gojo, World Tree Company's Class A database, I'm looking for a file."

"Impossible." I looked into his exposed eyes. "Upper City is Upper City, and World Tree Company is World Tree Company. Their firewalls are not even on the same level. Are you kidding me?"

"That's why I came to you." The man pulled a chip from his pocket. "It contains information about vulnerabilities in the World Tree Company's firewall."

I took the chip and plugged it into my terminal.

Data streams flashed before my eyes, and I quickly analyzed the information.

It's a subtle loophole, sure, but...

"Even if there are loopholes, I still need at least three access points."

"It's ready." The man took out three more chips. "The three signal towers in the upper city have all been implanted with backdoor programs."

I stared at him. "Who are you?"

"It does not matter."

He avoided my gaze and said, "All you need to know is that once the deal is done, 500,000 credits will be deposited into your account."
