Please call me Cyber ​​Demon King

Old Wei couldn't help but laugh when he saw this. As far as he knew, V should have no romantic experience.

"Same as always, no anesthesia."

Ke Ling smiled but didn't reply. He used to be very charming and had always been popular with women.

As for the various women around him, his main approach was to neither take the initiative nor reject them, and to avoid discussing feelings.

There was nothing I could do; I was an orphan with no family fortune, just a pretty face.

Even if he wants to talk about feelings and marriage with someone, the other person has to be willing to talk to him first.

"Subcutaneous armor 15,000, fireproof coating 12,000, heat converter 25,000, genuine leather braiding 12,000, optical camouflage 35,000, grounding plating 12,000, totaling 110,000. Do you have enough money on you?"

This time, Old Wei didn't ask Ke Ling if she could bear the pain; he immediately started calculating the money.

There was no way around it; this was no small amount. Although they were all cheap, older models, each one was still quite expensive, and Lao Wei couldn't afford to buy on credit like this.

"No problem, I'll pay in full at once."

Ke Ling said generously that he certainly didn't have enough money of his own, but he borrowed some from V and Jack Wells respectively.

He had $95,500 left, and borrowed $7250 each from V and Jack Wells, which covered the cost of the surgery.

"Then let's get started."

Without saying a word, Lao Wei made Ke Ling strip naked and lie on the bed. After all, it was a whole-body skin replacement, and it was impossible to change while wearing clothes.

Please read my new book! It's really important! Thank you so much, dear readers!!

Chapter 48 comes with a mod.

"Since the advent of subcutaneous armor, the personal armor industry has been severely impacted. Companies that used to work in this industry have either gone bankrupt or changed careers."

Ke Ling lay on the bed, and Lao Wei took out various prosthetic components and began to introduce them to him. He wanted the customer to see exactly what was installed on his body.

"The grounding coating contains an intelligent relay system that can conduct electrical charges to make you immune to electric shocks."

Fire-retardant coatings can protect your body and organs from flame damage.

The heat exchanger is equipped with a temperature regulation system that can regulate the temperature of the body and prosthetics.

The combination of braided genuine leather and subcutaneous armor strengthens the bond between skin cells, making your armor more difficult to pierce.

Optical camouflage makes you undetectable in the visible spectrum.

Old Wei read them out one by one, his expression hesitant, because he had already advised Ke Ling before, and he was wondering whether to try to persuade her again.

“Generally, I only recommend installing one or two of these skin prosthetics, and at most no more than three. I have never seen anyone install six like you.”

Finally, before taking action, Old Wei spoke up, saying that he wanted to be responsible for each of his clients and for every surgery.

"Old Wei, didn't you say these would all be compatible?"

Ke Ling countered with a question, explaining that he had carefully selected all of these items, taking into account everything from price and product type to compatibility.

"That's right, they are all compatible. I've already designed it for you."

Old Wei pulled out a table with a sketch he had made in advance. 110,000, this was definitely not a small order. Old Wei was very well prepared.

Of course, regardless of the size of the order, Lao Wei's service attitude has always been impeccable.

"The outer layer consists of braided genuine leather and subcutaneous armor. Together, these two elements form your visible skin, helping you to withstand bullets and blades."

A grounding plating and a fire-retardant coating are sandwiched between the outer layer of armor and the muscle to prevent electric shock and flames from damaging the flesh and organs inside.

The thermal converter and optical camouflage are located in the inner layer; one works directly within the inner layer to regulate temperature, while the other automatically seeps out and coats the skin during use to achieve optical stealth.

Old Wei held the manuscript paper and pointed out each layer to Ke Ling, explaining it to her so that Ke Ling could clearly understand the structure of her skin in the future.

Overall, Ke Ling felt that the current combination was pretty good, basically taking everything into account. He wanted more, but he really didn't have the money.

"Actually, after installing subcutaneous armor, I usually recommend that customers replace it with matching artificial muscles and supporting bones."

It's not about making more money; it's because the burden of this subcutaneous armor is considerable, and most people's bodies can hardly withstand it.

After installing artificial muscles and supporting bones, the burden can be greatly reduced, preventing the body from collapsing.

But you don't need to pretend; your muscles and bones are more than capable of supporting this subcutaneous armor.

At this point, Old Wei paused for a moment. He had originally wanted to ask Ke Ling how old she was this year, since her body was still growing.

After examining Ke Ling's body this time, he found that Ke Ling's physical data had increased significantly compared to the last time, which was not a normal phenomenon.

But when he thought that this might involve Ke Ling's secret, Lao Wei immediately stopped the conversation. He didn't want to delve into the secrets about Ke Ling's background.

"That's settled then, Old Wei, I think it's fine."

Seeing that Lao Wei had stopped talking, Ke Ling naturally picked up the conversation. He understood what Lao Wei meant and didn't say anything more.

Everyone left it at that, without explicitly stating anything. Old Wei was spared the trouble he had imagined, and Ke Ling no longer needed to go through the trouble of making up stories to explain. Wasn't that a wonderful thing?

"If you insist, then let's begin."

Old Wei nodded. It was his duty to offer advice; whether the customer listened or not was their business.

Ke Ling gave a thumbs up and smiled. He then closed his eyes and waited for Lao Wei to make his move.

Old Wei sighed slightly, then gave himself an injection in his arm. This was a big job, and he had to make sure his hand wouldn't shake at all.

Picking up the sharp scalpel, adjusting the height of the operating table, Old Wei finally made the incision.

Ke Ling lay on the operating table, feeling the pain coming from his body. Old Wei's technique was very good, but it did not alleviate his pain much.

However, so far, Ke Ling has never experienced the feeling of fainting from pain. On the contrary, these excruciating pains make his mind even clearer.

Ke Ling sometimes thinks that perhaps his extremely high pain tolerance is his greatest talent.

Or perhaps, their extreme tolerance for pain is actually a basic talent they possess after becoming ghosts?

Ke Ling couldn't be sure, but he could ask other ghosts later, since he still knew quite little about ghosts.

The surgery proceeded quickly, and Old Wei was clearly very adept at it; this kind of work posed no difficulty for him at all.

Ke Ling opened his eyes and glanced at Lao Wei, thinking to himself that this guy was indeed impressive, no wonder he was forced to sign a contract by Zeta Technology.

Even V-Shock could only install three skin system components, but Old V directly gave him a "More Prosthetic Components MOD", installing a full six!

He was quite apprehensive when he asked Lao Wei if it was compatible and if he could install all of them. Lao Wei's reply was, "Yes, but I don't recommend it."

Ke Ling understood immediately. Since it was possible to install it, it was natural to install it. However, due to limited funds, the quality was definitely inferior, but the functions were still quite complete.

As for side effects, what's a ghost afraid of?

Can the effects of this cybernetic modification on him be compared to the effects of becoming a ghost? There's no comparison at all; it's a drop in the ocean.

"Okay, go look in the mirror."

While Ke Ling was lying on the operating table lost in thought, Lao Wei had already completed the surgery smoothly and installed the six-layer epidermal system components.

Ke Ling sat up from the operating table, his bare feet touching the ground. To be honest, at that moment, he was truly amazed by the technology of this genuine leather.

This artificial skin, produced using genuine leather technology, is virtually indistinguishable from natural skin.

If Ke Ling hadn't actually felt the armor beneath his skin, as well as the activatable thermal converter and optical camouflage, he would almost have thought he hadn't changed skin at all.

Ke Ling raised her arm and looked at it, then touched her body and carefully examined herself.

He didn't need to look in a mirror to know that, outwardly, he looked almost exactly the same as when he was wearing his original skin.

"As you requested, I added a one-click nail removal function to my fingers, and I also restored all the tattoos on your body one-to-one."

As Lao Wei cleaned the scalpels and operating table, he explained things to Ke Ling. Ke Ling naturally noticed that the eerie markings on his body were still there.

Actually, it wouldn't matter if it were removed, but Ke Ling forgot to mention that this one-click nail removal function for hands was indeed a special request he made. There's no way around it, he needs to make a living.

Please read my new book! It's really important! Thank you so much, dear readers!!

Chapter 49 Money spent can be earned back

Arriving in front of the clearly specially prepared full-length mirror, Ke Ling looked into it and was quite satisfied with the effect.

Ke Ling quickly put on his clothes and straightened them up. These were all new clothes he had just bought; clothes really wear out when you're a "cyber wanderer."

"By the way, optical camouflage doesn't actually make you completely invisible. Don't use it like a superhero's superpower, or you'll die a horrible death."

Old Wei continued his after-sales service; his understanding of these products was clearly far superior to that of Ke Ling, a complete novice.

"I understand, the stealth before the battle was used correctly, right?"

Ke Ling laughed. He was actually quite familiar with this thing. He had suffered a lot when it first came out, foolishly charging head-on while in stealth mode.

As it turns out, although the NPCs were deaf and blind, they weren't completely stupid. When they saw a gun and a knife flying in the sky, who the hell didn't know that someone was using optical camouflage?

This thing is already quite remarkable for being able to cover one's clothes; naturally, it's impossible for it to also make the weapon in one's hand invisible.

Therefore, the result of doing so would naturally be that the enemy would shoot it directly.

The correct way to use optical camouflage is, of course, to employ hacking or stealthy assassination techniques while hiding in the shadows.

The Musou Sword Saint build, which charges head-on, can also be used, but remember to charge into the crowd before revealing your Mantis Blade.

"That's right, it's obvious."

Old Wei chuckled. There were plenty of people like him who went out to cause trouble right after installing optical camouflage and got shot dead. It seemed that Ke Ling wasn't that kind of person.

"Thanks, Old Wei."

Ke Ling thanked him and was about to leave when Lao Wei called him back. Ke Ling looked over in confusion.

"And this, do you need it?"

Old Wei rummaged through the box, pulled out two leather "horn tubes," and tossed them directly to Ke Ling.

"Holy crap! Old Wei, you actually thought of that?"

Ke Ling was stunned. Although he had almost gotten used to the presence of this pair of people, he would still sometimes forget.

He wore this full set of subcutaneous armor so that he could walk in the sunlight and make use of the daytime hours.

As a result, they only thought about having the function of extending their hands to facilitate the use of claws and eating, and forgot about the pair of horns on their heads.
