Startled by the other party's sudden activation of Swanwestin, Main gritted his teeth in dissatisfaction... but in the end he didn't say anything.

He snorted and turned his head away.

Dolio, who was standing next to him, patted him on the shoulder.

"Are you a family member?"

It was different from the reactions of others when they saw David suddenly increase his speed several times.

Lin Qiao looked at the young man in front of her calmly.

It seems that he is the man with the military-grade Sianwestan that Dolio mentioned before.

Then he focused his attention on David's red and swollen left cheek, and a hint of confusion flashed in his eyes.

"When did Sian Westin have this side effect?"

"..."

When David was asked about this, his expression froze.

Pointing at the red mark on his face, he stammered and wanted to say something, but swallowed it back after hearing Man Yin's cold snort.

Obviously, the latter's slaps left him with a deep psychological trauma.

"No, doctor..."

He waved his hands a little embarrassedly, trying to get the topic back on track.

"Okay, I know what you want to ask. Your mother's operation went smoothly. Although she is weak and can't wake up for a while, she is out of danger now."

In fact, if it was just about saving people, it would have ended long ago.

Take out the medical emergency gun, press the trigger, and your health will be restored in minutes.

As for the rest of the time, Lin Qiao spent it entirely in reinstalling the prosthesis that was expelled from Gloria after treatment, and in faking surgical traces for the other party.

Otherwise, if a seriously injured and dying person went in and walked out alive and kicking in less than half a minute, it would be too outrageous, no matter how good his medical skills were.

"I need to change the output power of the medical emergency gun in the future."

Lin Qiao secretly made a decision. At least in this world, full-body repair was not appropriate.

It takes one minute to replenish blood, and the remaining half an hour is spent playing human body puzzles... It's too troublesome no matter how you think about it.

"But compared to your mother, you should worry about yourself first. At least in my opinion, your situation is more dangerous."

"I?"

"Yes."

He turned his gaze back to the relieved David - his back to be exact.

"The military-grade Sian Westin is not that easy to use. To put it more simply, it is a double-edged sword that can cause damage to both the enemy and ourselves."

"When using it, it will put a huge burden on the human brain and body. If you are not careful, you will become a cyber maniac or be paralyzed in bed for the rest of your life."

Reality is not a game after all.

I want to add four orange cooling slots and play unlimited time stop...

Not to mention whether it can be done.

Even if it succeeds, the person is basically dead, and the brain will probably be burned directly.

"Eh? Is that so?"

David was stunned for a moment, then patted his body.

"But I feel fine, there is nothing special about it... I just twisted my hand accidentally when I was hitting someone."

“How many times have you used it today?”

"About five... No, including just now, it should be six times, and I feel like a few more times shouldn't be a problem."

After he finished speaking, Man Yin and his group, who were a little further away, smacked their lips in surprise.

"Hey, is this true? Six times? Just because of that little brat?"

As mercenaries, they have been dealing with various combat prostheses for many years, so they naturally know how powerful the military-grade Sian Westin is - what's more terrifying is that this power is two-way.

With David's small physique, he would have to lie on the ground crying after using it twice at most...at least that's what they thought before.

But now it seems that the other party seems to be able to handle it with ease.

"It seems that your tolerance to prosthetics is much stronger than that of ordinary people... or is your body too slow?"

"Is this a good thing?"

"At least it's not a bad thing, not entirely."

Lin Qiao looked at David thoughtfully.

Apart from his innate talent, another reason is probably that he is still young and can do whatever he wants while he is still strong.

Having said that, as time goes by, the dual side effects of Swanwestin on the brain and body will accumulate step by step until they finally erupt.

Then it will inevitably fall into the abyss of cyber spirit and even death.

"In short, don't use this thing more than twice a day, and remember not to use it consecutively. If possible, it's best to rest for a few days after each use to allow your body to recover."

"Well, I understand, thank you."

"Thank you, I didn't tell you."

"what?"

David was stunned for a moment.

At this time, the heavy

Footsteps sounded behind me, and a shadow as tall as a hill instantly blocked out the light above my head.

"I'm sorry, but he was just talking to me."

"!"

An arm, almost as big as his own, was placed on his shoulders.

David felt uneasy because of a bad premonition.

"Boy, now that Gloria's issue has been resolved, let's talk about your stealing of my prosthetic body."

"I've been holding back my anger since last night!"

Looking at the sinister smile on Man Yin's lips, David subconsciously turned his gaze for help to the only medical staff present.

"Why are you looking at me? I'm not on the trauma team, and you're not a member, right?"

Lin Qiao spread her hands with a smile and took the coffee brought by Lucy.

Anyway, Mainin won't kill him... Young people are tough and it doesn't matter if they get beaten once or twice.

Just consider it as strengthening your body.

Then he seemed to remember something and added, "Oh, by the way, if you want to do something, go out and don't mess up my place."

"Also, see who can pay the surgery fee first."

Chapter 343 Your Dream Will Be Eaten by Me

In short, although the process was not pleasant, David did not suffer any... serious injuries in the end.

And under Dolio's persuasion, the military-grade Swansea was not dismantled, but remained for his temporary use and safekeeping.

After all, Lin Qiao had told her before that if that thing was implanted in Maine, even if he continued to inject immunosuppressants like drinking water, he would become a cyber madman within a week.

As for installing it on other people, it is not realistic.

Rebecca is too small to be suitable, Qiwei is a network hacker, and Pyrrha's body can't handle it. Although her words can be used barely, twice is the limit.

It is rare to find someone like David who can use it at least six times a day and has never used immunosuppressants.

Therefore, considering various aspects, we can only adopt a compromise solution for now.

Of course, the prerequisite is that David has to work for them.

——In fact, this was also David’s own request, hoping to use Swanwestin to work and pay off his debts.

We have to admit that this is also the most correct and most beneficial win-win choice for both parties.

Otherwise, no matter how talented he is, he can't just give away such a precious thing as the military-grade Sian Westin to others for free.

After that, Man Yin and his team temporarily paid David's medical expenses... This was not out of kindness, but mainly because they had no other choice.

After all, David really couldn't come up with the money, and the only money left in the family had been paid to the black-hearted hospital that had previously been in cahoots with the scavenger, and Lin Qiao didn't accept credit services.

Anyway, this matter has come to an end.

As for Gloria, she was kept behind for medical observation...even though Lin Qiao said that this was totally unnecessary.

But since I had to do the whole thing, I just agreed.

……

The suburbs outside Night City

Due to the rapid deterioration of the environment and serious pollution from processing factories, after leaving Night City, all you see is almost a bare Gobi desert with only relatively sparse vegetation covering it.

The sandstorm blew large amounts of garbage onto the road.

Plastic bags of various colors are hung on the plants on the roadside, like the head cloths worn by Middle Eastern women.

The old and rusty wind turbine fans creaked and were inserted one by one at the end of the hillside, like tombstones from the old times.

No matter how you look at it, it's hard to be in a good mood.

- Of course, the above premise is to leave via the road east of Santo Domingo, but if you change to the direction where Westbrook is, the situation will be very different.

Although it is equally desolate, the broad road and the space launch base at the end of the road indicate the uniqueness of this place.

With the development of science and technology, there have been many achievements in the field of aerospace, and humans have acquired the ability to colonize outer space.

The most representative of these is the space casino called "Crystal Palace", as well as the colonies and research institutes built by major companies on the moon and other planets.

Is this the great step for mankind to leave its home planet and head into the vast universe...?

Well, although all kinds of advertising slogans are overwhelming, they never mention the workers who were oppressed to death while building these "pearls in human history."

Perhaps this is the necessary sacrifice for mankind to progress.

And even so, the so-called space has always been exclusive to the rich.

You can tell this from their advertising slogan - stay away from all harmful waste on the ground.

However, having said so much, none of the above has much to do with Lin Qiao.

He had neither the determination to save the world nor the idea of ​​denouncing the injustice in the world.

[Attention all passengers who are responsible for airport pick-up, the rocket flying from the moon to Night City is about to complete orbit correction and is expected to start landing in 30 minutes...]

The broadcast in the rocket launch base also sounded at this time.

With the aerospace industry developing in full swing, outer space tourism has long become the most innovative and profitable tourism industry.

For people, it is a very romantic thing to take a trip to outer space occasionally with friends and family, whether it is the moon or the "Crystal Palace"... provided that you have money.

The progress of mankind has little to do with the poor at the bottom of society.

"But it's still orbiting the Earth. That's too slow."

Lin Qiao and Lucy were sitting on the public seats outside waiting.

There weren't many people in the empty hall, which was understandable.

The content broadcast on the radio made a crab alien who had traveled to the moon in the flesh sigh that it was easy to talk without any pain in the waist.

They didn't come here for a trip to the moon... Money was not a problem, the main problem was that Lin Qiao himself could not leave North America.

"But that's just my true self."

I looked up at the flight schedule above my head.

It shows there's another flight to the moon later today.

"Now that you're here, don't you really want to go for some fun? I can almost use my clone to mimic a real person."
