Gunfire, Punk and Necromancer

Ever since Zhuang Xuteng used the Eye of Kahuo to create a paralyzing shock wave for Meteor, Nightingale and Rock Bird, his use of dead man implants has become an open secret among several people. Just because everyone avoids talking about it doesn't mean they don't know, it's just to save Zhuang Xuteng's face. Because using implants from dead people requires suffering huge side effects, whether among mercenaries or gangs, this is regarded as a desperate and desperate move that is only used when there is no other way out - the only one who does not have this taboo Only the Cemetery Gang.

Since three intelligence officers and a large number of shadow slave equipment were directly paralyzed with a shock wave, the power of the Eye of Kaho also left a deep enough impression on them, and it also allowed them to partially understand whether Zhuang Xuteng's use of the Dead Eye was Out of desperation, he simply valued the powerful function of the implant and his confidence that he could withstand these side effects.

The Famine Stranger was able to install more implants and use more shadow equipment than other mercenaries back then. Many people speculated that he mastered some unique secret skills. Now Zhuang Xuteng and Ge Gongdao must have inherited those "secret skills". In daily interactions, Zhuang Xuteng has indeed shown the ability to reduce the side effects of shadows. If he can help others, he can definitely help himself. A single shadow weapon taken from a dead person might still be within the acceptable range for him. Everyone increased their estimate of the upper limit of Zhuang Xuteng's ability to withstand it.

But being able to withstand the side effects of a dead person implant is one thing, being able to eliminate that side effect is an entirely different realm. Nightingale and Yanque are not fools. When they heard that Naike "had a channel" and "tried" to eliminate the problem of deceased implants, they knew that this channel was Naike. The so-called "try" was just a modest way of saying it.

If their speculations are true, it will bring about radical changes to the entire implant market. Not to mention mercenaries, gangs and the black market, even the four top companies would want Zhuang Xuteng's technology. Waste recycling is an ancient industry that has always existed because it has always been supported by profits. There is a huge price gap between new implants and deceased implants. This huge difference can support an entire "veteran hospice program" today, and many people gain jobs and profits because of this program. Think about it, with so much profit and such a big market, Naike can capture it all by himself.

It's impossible not to be excited, but the two of them really can't be excited, and they must have this bit of self-control. They didn't know whether Naike's sudden mention of using the Cranosaurus implant was a test, the purpose of which was to see the two people's confidentiality alertness and emotional control ability? Since changing owners, the two sisters have been cautious and cautious, which has become their habit, professional quality and attitude towards life. Even if they can rest assured that the safety behind them is left to Naike, they will still be cautious to the last minute.

Therefore, the two people deliberately avoided asking about how to deal with the deceased's implant. How could this cautious avoidance not be discovered by Zhuang Xuteng? He sighed lightly at the reality, then smiled and chose to respect their attitude towards life. "Yanque, your mobile phone also has the function of checking the number of surgeries? Can you get one for me too?"

"Instead of querying the number of surgeries, we directly read the records of the implant. This kind of data port is only available in cranial implants. Our two interfaces are located diagonally above and behind the right ear. You can find it by lifting the scalp. A data line provides it with energy and reads information. There is nothing mysterious or powerful about it. It is essentially just a part of the routine maintenance of the cranial implant, and it is useless in most cases."

Zhuang Xuteng understood and said: "This belongs to the scope of work of implant engineers rather than implant doctors, and is it only useful for cranial implants?"

"Yes, you summed it up very well." Yanque nodded, then pulled out the thread and said: "The implant of Ceranosaurus is quite good, more advanced than the two of us, and in order to adapt to six surgeries, he specially added more It has no contact points, so it can completely cover either of our surgical areas. Simply put: in terms of functionality, it works.”

Zhuang Xuteng understood and said: "The remaining problem depends on whether its side effects can be eliminated and whether the pressure caused by the current implant can be reduced after installation. I will find a way to deal with it... I leave it to you. Okay, don't forget to check the surveillance video. Delete my face, or simply delete it altogether. In addition, there is an escape tunnel under the work chair. You can pay attention to it. I didn't touch it, I'm mainly worried about it. It may be connected to some kind of self-destruct mechanism.”

Nightingale and Rockbird gave him a thumbs up in praise. Based on the experience of intelligence officers, emergency escape passages are not possible, but must be connected to some kind of self-destruct mechanism. The self-destruction here doesn't always physically blow up the entire bunker, but it certainly eliminates all intelligence information retained by the studio.

To be able to be approached and killed all the way to the door of the intelligence room means that the situation is extremely dangerous. The intelligence officer is determined to abandon everything and escape, so he cannot leave any information that can help the enemy track him. Under normal circumstances, intermediary wars are difficult to fight, mainly for this reason: it is easy to kill the intermediary, but it is too difficult to retain complete information. If you fight hard for a long time, and most of the loot ends up being hidden somewhere, and eventually becomes the property of a company or the constitutional government, then your work will be in vain.

After Zhuang Xuteng completed the handover with the two sisters, he thought about going back to deal with the follow-up matters. He closed the zipper of the body bag, lifted the body up and took it away directly. From his relaxed steps and posture, it was not obvious that he was carrying a person. Along the way, Lucy's direct staff greeted him one after another, and he responded enthusiastically. When the mercenary brothers outside saw him, they smiled and waved, ignoring him at all and letting him leave as he pleased.

This time, everything he brought with him was his own, and Lucy told him not to inspect it. She also emphasized that she would personally be responsible for dismembering anyone who dared to search their body.

As I drove away in the armored vehicle, there was a PCPD police car parked not far from the roadside. The three police officers were carrying steaming cups of coffee and bagels, and were having a good chat with Lucy's staff. They glanced at the armored vehicle from a distance, raised the corners of their mouths slightly, and then turned their backs to the road in a tacit understanding.

"Pretend you can't see me?" Zhuang Xuteng pulled up his collar, covered his face, and drove past quickly. After he pulled away, the armored vehicle's chassis was flipped over and replaced with another new one.

Everything went well. Zhuang Xuteng took the body of Craniosaurus back for inspection and found that the side effects accumulated by it were much lower than those of other dead bodies, probably only slightly higher than those caused by shock due to overloading. This phenomenon is very interesting. After Zhuang Xuteng studied it, he believed that it was related to the Eye of Kahuo.

The shock wave caused complete shock and paralysis of the cranial implant, which was equivalent to a side effect that suddenly killed the living person. At this time, the implant does not accept the user's commands at all and seals itself. The only job is to transfer the side effects to the outside as soon as possible and strive to "turn on" as early as possible.

"Cranosaurus was still unable to move when it suffocated to death, which shows that his brain signals either were not sent out, or were not received by any organ tissue or implant. In the end, the implant probably did not know that Cephalosaurus was dead. There is no chance to bear the resentment caused by the mental panic of approaching death."

Near-death experiences directly affect the intensity of side effects of implants in cadavers. Although Zhuang Xuteng can always use necromancy to get rid of his resentment, the fewer side effects, the easier it will be for him. After returning, Zhuang Xuteng gathered tools and dismantled the Cranial Dragon in the basement of the implant care shop. He completely removed most of the implants, mainly the cranial implants, and put them into protective devices by category. The body was burned with thermite.

The entire implant is in very good condition. After instrument testing, it scored 86 points. Rounding off, it can be considered 90% new. This good news must be brewing for a while, so we can't tell Nightingale and Rock Bird right now. The two of them haven't taken down the protection of the skull dragon studio, but Zhuang Xuteng has already taken down the skull dragon and "maintained" it. The contrast is a bit big.

Suddenly, Zhuang Xuteng felt confused, a bit empty and semi-lonely. The thing he envied the most was watching Master Famine Stranger rush into Fatty D's base camp, fight his way up from the first floor, killing every ten steps, with unparalleled momentum, and finally forced Fatty D to jump off the building to escape, and then he allowed himself to pick up the missing pieces. , earning the title "Scarecrow".

Since D Fatty's main pressure comes from the Famine Stranger, Zhuang Xuteng has always felt that he was a bit vain for winning the title. Moreover, "the straw that broke the camel's back" is not the "straw that broke the camel's back" after all. The gap between the two is still quite large. Zhuang Xuteng likes the increase in income brought by the title, but other departments are reluctant to take the initiative to mention it.

Now, he has also completed the achievement of "killing through the middleman's base" and captured the middleman alive, which is an improvement compared to the last time when he had to kill Fatty D. Specifically speaking, Master Famine Stranger has to face more enemies, but ordinary direct employees cannot pose a threat. The actual number depends on the number of named mercenaries. Since I don't know the specific results of the last time, so... No, this time I only managed to kill one named "Shadow Ninja", and the master couldn't be less than this.

"But the master failed to catch the middleman and let him run away - this time I caught it. And judging from the final state, it is obvious that I am much more relaxed than the master, but...does this make sense?" Zhuang Xuteng held up his hands Holding my chin, for the first time I didn’t feel very happy after completing the task and inevitably having a good harvest. Once I think that I have accomplished a feat similar to that of my master, I feel as if my childhood dream has suddenly come true.

This feeling is probably only understood by mercenaries. Zhuang Xuteng thought for a while, then took out his phone and called Ge Gongdao. At this time, news of Lazio's collapse had begun to spread, and Brother Dao in the same circle had heard the news. By understanding the whereabouts of Lucy's mercenaries and direct staff, he had determined that Lucy was the biggest beneficiary of Lazio's destruction, and basically deduced that this matter was related to Nike. So when he saw it was Naike's call, he immediately adjourned the meeting and went to the safe room next door to answer the phone.

"You're not hurt, are you? Why didn't you call me for this kind of action?" Brother Dao asked directly as soon as he came up.

"This is not an operation, well, it can only be said to be a mistake... that's not important." Zhuang Xuteng sighed and said, "Brother Dao, can you take time out now? I need to have a good fight."

Do you have time and can you spare time? There are obvious differences in grammar and emotional expression, but it is the same for Ge Gongdao: "Haha, no problem! Where should we go? The apartment is not available, we have to go to the old place."

"Then go to the old place. I'm close, so I'll go clean first." Zhuang Xuteng immediately hung up the phone.

The armored ferret raced through the streets of Peicheng, taking Zhuang Xuteng to the old base of the rental warehouse in the Hedi District. He hasn't been here for a long time, and he felt nostalgic when he first saw it. At first, Ge Gong Dao Tu saved trouble (and got a huge discount) and rented it for twenty years at a time. Even if they haven't used it for a long time, it will be kept here for them.

"Clatter", the chain slipped to the ground, and Zhuang Xuteng, holding an extra-large padlock, slowly opened the warehouse door. He was very aware of the traps and traps here. The warehouse door would stop after being raised half a meter, and people would crawl under it. They would first disable the alarm and traps before doing anything else.

After a while, Ge Gongdao arrived in a hurry. He was originally in an important meeting, arranging various tasks to support the private detective company. If Zhuang Xuteng calls, the meeting can be suspended or even stopped. The reason why Ge Gongdao arrived relatively late was because he was attracting much attention now, and he had to get rid of possible stalkers on the way here. But whether it was an important meeting or someone was being followed, Ge Gongdao didn't say anything. He would only smile and say: "I'm late, are you in a hurry?"

"It's not bad. Anyway, I feel like I'm craving for more." Zhuang Xuteng threw away the mop, came to the center of the warehouse space, and started to move his hands and feet. Seeing him like this, Ge Gongdao closed the warehouse door with his backhand and started to warm up.

"I killed Lazio today. I was originally there for reconnaissance. His people wanted to use my head to become famous, but I killed him. Then Lazio invited me to the base. That was definitely a huge mistake." Zhuang Xuteng warmed up. Said: "This matter makes me feel very unreal, so I need you to bring me back to reality. Don't be merciful, and I will do my best."

Ge Gongdao stretched his muscles hard and twisted his body into a posture that was not suitable for his broad body. His whole body was like a machine being wound up. "I've heard some rumors. Maybe because they just came out, they don't seem to be as shocking as your direct description. It feels like... you did what Master Famine Stranger did: kill through the middleman's base."

"You can really understand me." Zhuang Xuteng took the lead in completing the warm-up, came to the center of the field, stood relaxed, closed his eyes and rested. After a while, Ge Gongdao also came over. He took the Qingquan sword and pulled it out a little. Then when he saw an armor-breaking hammer in Zhuang Xuteng's hand, he shook his head and put the sword back.

“打坏你，花点钱就能治好，打坏了清泉会让我心疼。咱俩拳拳到肉，没必要让心爱的武器替咱们挨揍。我用模型剑，你也用模型锤子， Just like we trained before."

"Okay." Zhuang Xuteng waved his hand and threw the armor-breaking hammer aside. As soon as he waved, the equal-weight training models corresponding to Qingquan and the armor-breaking hammer flew over from the weapon rack and fell into the hands of the two men respectively. Ge Gongdao narrowed his eyes. He knew that Zhuang Xuteng had gained new skills. He must not regard himself as a senior brother. He could not hold back as soon as he came up. Otherwise, he would be the one who suffered the loss and disgrace.

He reached out and grabbed the model knife, then shook Qingquan, saying "it will be judged when it hits the ground", and then gently threw it into the air. However, Qingquan has not yet landed, and the two brothers are already fighting together.

Neither of them said that the other person was despicable, they just felt that the two of them were in tune with each other even in doing bad things and cheating. They were really good friends and good brothers. Seven Flashes vs. Seven Flashes, the two of them were taught by the same master, but they took different paths during the Seven Flashes and Sword Dance. They are not the original Seven Flashes, so there is no situation where they cannot break the move. They go back and forth, refusing to give in to each other, each using their own unique moves, and the fight is dazzling.
