Chapter 18 Qualitative Change!

"Mr. Li Ang, is this also a product of your LA company?" Victor asked in surprise.

Obviously, he had never expected that a company that sells weapons would actually make such an offensive prosthetic device!

Li Ang smiled but did not say anything, just nodded slightly.

He would only use such a top-quality prosthetic device for his own people and would never sell it easily.

"I didn't expect that you, a big-headed soldier, were so lucky to have such a good prosthetic device implanted. Please lie down. If you are afraid of pain, I can pour you a beer to calm you down."

"Uh! Thank you, but I don't need it." Mann said with a stiff face.

Immediately, Victor invited Mann to lie on the operating table, then pushed the chair, slid to the computer, and typed on the keyboard.

"I will first do a full scan of your implant, using a military-grade antivirus program to ensure that the operating environment is clean enough."

Mann looked down at his arms. The most modified part of his body was this pair of sturdy hands.

It was a pair of mechanical prostheses made of metal, plastic fiber and bionic leather. Although the quality was average, it was still durable.

"Do it, doctor. I'm ready!"

Mann said in a muffled voice.

"Okay, I'll inject you with a sedative now. Just sleep for half an hour, and I'll wake you up later."

After that, Victor picked up the needle and started his operation. During the operation on Mann, he didn't forget to chat with Leon about trivial matters.

Watching Victor's sharp scalpel cut Mann's neck and began to install the Sian Westin, even the knowledgeable Leon couldn't help but feel a tingling scalp.

Forcing this thing into the back was a bit uncomfortable, but mercenaries like Mann wanted to become stronger far more than ordinary people could imagine.

At least when the operation was done, Leon believed that Mann must think it was worth it.

The process of the prosthetic transplantation was much faster than everyone imagined. Victor only took a little over 20 minutes to get everything done.

And Mann also began to wake up gradually under the effect of the diluted drugs, as if he had a short dream.

"Uh! What's the situation? Has the operation not started yet?"

Mann looked at the team members blankly, but caused a burst of laughter. Pira grinned and said: "Boss, are you confused in sleep? The operation has been over for a long time!"

After the operation, Victor took off the macro lens on his face and began to retract the mechanical arms around the table. He breathed a sigh of relief and said:

"Okay, mercenary boy, come and feel your Sian Westin and see if there is anything wrong."

Mann walked down the operating table carefully and soon felt the new information that the operating system had been updated.

[Prosthetic device: LA Company-"Peregrine" Sian Westin Type 5

Quality: Legend

Function: Time is slowed down to 30% for 18 seconds. Cooling time is 60 seconds.

All damage caused when Sianvistan is activated is increased by 15%.

Item Description: Peregrine falcons were once one of the fastest animals in the world, and this implant of the same name is no exception. 】

‘Oh, ho! This thing… is so cool! ’

Excited, Mann looked at Dolio not far away, and immediately activated Sianvistan. Almost instantly, he came to the other party and picked her up.

Dolio can be regarded as the auxiliary person in Mann’s team. Whether it is frontal combat or logistics, she is a very critical second-in-command.

And she is blonde and blue-eyed, and also has strong muscles. She is also Mann’s beloved girlfriend.

“Oh my God! Mann, you guys have become so fast, have you hugged enough? Put me down quickly!”

Dolio seemed to be coquettishly pouting Mann, but the happy expression on her face was that she was sincerely happy for her boyfriend Mann.

Mann chuckled twice, hugged Dolio in his arms and turned around twice before putting her back on the ground.

Seeing this warm scene, Rebecca's big eyes showed envy, while Lucy looked at Leon involuntarily with mixed feelings.

"Mann, how do you feel now?"

Leon stepped forward and asked Mann about his use.

After all, the Peregrine 5 Sian Westin is a top-level military prosthetic device, which is still a heavy burden on the human body and needs to be monitored frequently.

"Mr. Leon, oh no! It should be my beloved boss. I feel very good now, just like Popeye who ate spinach, full of endless energy!"

At this moment, Mann was excited about his unprecedented power, and his respect for Leon exceeded anyone else.

[Name: Mann]

[Occupation: Mercenary]

[Favorability: 90 (loyalty)]

[Prosthetic configuration: Peregrine 5 Sianwestin (operating system), ballistic coprocessor (palm), alloy arm (arm)]

[Comprehensive ability: 93]

…

Sianwestin has brought a qualitative change to Mann's strength improvement, and his comprehensive ability has soared from the initial 70 points to 93 points.

In this mercenary team, Mann has become the most outstanding main combat player.

"Old Victor, what do you think? Do you have any medical advice?" Leon turned to look at Victor. Professional issues should be left to professionals.

Victor shrugged and said calmly:

"There's nothing much to say, but if you feel something is wrong with you, come and see me. After all, everyone has different tolerances for prostheses."

Leon and the Mann team nodded.

Prosthetic devices do bring unimaginable power to the human body, but everything in the world has two sides. If the quality of prostheses is a little bit worse, fatal failures are likely to occur.

Even if Leon provides Mann with the best quality devices, it cannot completely avoid injuries or prosthetic failures.

"From today on, each of you must come here regularly to check the prosthesis. I'll cover the cost. If there is any problem, tell me in time, don't hide it."

Leon turned his head and said seriously.

"Yes!"

Victor smiled. Leon's way of dealing with people is very different from that of ordinary company dogs. He is humane everywhere. This is why he likes Leon.

Many employers' attitude towards mercenaries is that they hope that they will be equipped with excessive prosthetics and abuse a bunch of inexplicable software, which will gradually make the mercenaries immune to hormone blocking drugs.

Until one day, they lose their minds and become crazy cyberpsychopaths, pick up weapons and shoot on the streets, and are finally blown to pieces by the police and the terrorist mobile team.

What a sad ending.

But in Night City, this tragedy is played out every day.

"Old Wei, what are your plans next?" Leon suddenly asked.

Victor was stunned at first, but soon realized that this kid was trying to win him over to the company.

"Why, Mr. Leon, do you have any advice?" Victor smiled.
