Please Call Me Cyber Ghost King

Chapter 149 If you have money, you have to spend it

"Not bad."

Looking at the "grasshopper" in front of him, Ke Ling was very satisfied, but if he was dissatisfied with anything, it was that the shell could not be transformed into flesh and blood.

"Sunshine. Sunshine, this is a big problem."

Ke Ling looked at the [Extreme System] and thought about it. Maybe it was time to go back to the world of "Demon Slayer".

The last time he came back, it was because he was not strong enough and he didn't want to go to the Demon Slayer Corps to act with those people, but it was different now.

Although he didn't have an accurate judgment on the strength of the pillars of the Demon Slayer Squad, but judging by the strength of Mr. Lintaki, the front pillar, he couldn't be any stronger no matter how strong they were.

The growth during this period has made Ke Ling's strength reach a new level. His level has improved a lot, and he has also developed a three-stage demon form. It's time to compete with the Demon Slayer Squad.

If you want to quickly improve your strength, you still have to catch ghosts. After all, you can get extra attribute points by swallowing the blood of the ghost king, and ghosts also give higher experience points than other creatures.

I hope the people in the Demon Slayer Squad can be more sensible. Wouldn't it be nice for everyone to have fun killing ghosts together? If they don't know what's going on, then he can only help them know what's going on. But according to what Mr. Lintaki said, at least the Lord shouldn't be so unwise. He only needs to control those pillars.

Ke Ling was thinking as he loaded the "Grasshopper" mecha into the shadow space. He took a rest first, relaxed his spirit, and then left to go to Lao Wei's shop.

It is now noon, and Lao Wei's shop is naturally open. He will open it every day as long as he has nothing to do. Anyway, you can watch boxing matches in the shop. Lao Wei has no other hobbies, he just loves this boxing match, and he will do it when he is resting. Go and see it live.

Before leaving, Ke Ling needs to strengthen himself first. He has a lot of money in his pocket now. If he doesn't spend it and turn it into strength, can he still have children?

"Ke Ling? Why are you here?"

Lao Wei was a little surprised when he saw Ke Ling. He thought Ke Ling was going to compete with that "grasshopper" for a long time, and now he lost interest at noon? The perseverance of young people lacks the spirit of study.

"I've repaired the grasshopper. I'm going out in two days to get some more Rc cell inhibitors. Before I leave, I'm going to install a few more prosthetics to strengthen it."

Ke Ling came to Lao Wei. Lao Wei had guests and was undergoing surgery. He could just be an apprentice nearby and learn.

"It's fixed?!"

Lao Wei was a little surprised, but he didn't say much and focused on the surgery. Lao Wei was still very professional.

Ke Ling watched from the side. He was thinking about what kind of prosthetic body he would wear. It was a sure thing to change to a better set of subcutaneous armor. He wanted to pretend to be the best in Laowei. Now he mainly plays a tyrant.

After defeating Klee Hall, the biggest gain for Ke Ling, Jack, and V was probably a pile of cash. Although most of it was reserved for the continued operation of the "company", Ke Ling and the others The three of them also divided a lot.

After all, it was Klee Hall's savings for so many years, and considering that his headquarters was demolished and sold, it was also a large amount of money.

Of course, in addition to the one-time income from this one-time transaction, Ke Ling, V, and Jack will continue to receive some dividends, or wages, from this business of smuggling organic meat on time every month. issued.

Although it is said that it does not make any money, in order for the business to continue to operate, the workers still need to be paid.

The wool comes from the sheep. Of course, Ke Ling, V, Jack, the priest, and the old captain cannot afford these wages. With so many employees, how can they afford it? They still have to rely on the smuggling of organic meat business itself to create profits. .

Ke Ling, V, and Jack received a symbolic salary of 10,000 per month. Although they were equivalent to the owners of the company, after all, they did not do anything and were embarrassed to take so much. They were just living on the streets. All they need is face, and all three of them need face, so they have to rely on their money.

The priest and the old captain each received 15,000 a month as a reward for their hard work in running this business.

In addition, they do not make any profit, which is very conscientious and has brought the price of organic meat down a lot. I believe more people will be able to afford it, and all they have to do is ensure the quality of the meat. , and hiding from the company.

In fact, this is also dangerous. After all, the more people buy organic meat, the less people buy synthetic meat, which will also increase the risk of exposure.

But this risk is relatively small. After all, the price reduction is convenient for those who could not even afford organic meat before. People who usually buy synthetic meat probably will not buy organic meat just because the price of organic meat has dropped.

As for wages, Ke Ling feels that it is still necessary. If you really work without taking a penny, you may not be able to survive for a long time.

Those who work must get some, and besides, the salary is actually not too small. At least both V and Jack are satisfied, and they are willing to continue to support this cause that benefits the public.

If you can do good deeds and get money every month, why not do it? Besides, the two of them had already shared a lot of Klee Hall's savings, and now their pockets were bulging, and they didn't care if they divided more or less money each month.

Ke Ling came to Lao Wei to upgrade his prosthetic body because he was "divided" and he had a lot of money on him, which was enough for him to replace it with some stronger prosthetics.

V has started to buy Nekomata, Asura, and Nobunaga everywhere. She is eager to get a cutting-edge weapon. If there is such a sniper rifle, wouldn't it mean that everyone will be shot to death?

Soon, Lao Wei completed the operation and the guests left. After cleaning up, Ke Ling lay down on the operating table naturally.

"How did you fix the grasshopper?"

Lao Wei took out the subcutaneous armor and asked Ke Ling. He was very curious, Ke Ling actually had this kind of technology?

"In ways you can't think of."

Ke Ling smiled and summoned "Grasshopper Mecha No. 1" from the shadow, and its pilot was "Flesh Puppet No. 10".

"What's this?"

Looking at the "Grasshopper" mecha jumping in front of him, Lao Wei opened his mouth wide. He knew that Ke Ling's shadow storage space was available, but didn't it mean that it couldn't store living things? Why does this grasshopper still have a driver?

"That's not a living person, it's a dummy made from Rc cells."

Ke Ling explained, and Lao Wei looked amazed. The various uses of Rc cells made him admire the researchers of the biotechnology company. Which genius invented this thing?

However, after being surprised, Lao Wei quickly regained his composure. He was no longer surprised by what happened to Ke Ling.

"This is the best one I have here. It's heavy-duty subcutaneous armor. It takes a long time for ordinary firearms to penetrate with armor-piercing bullets, but you should know that you should never challenge anti-material weapons with this thing."

Lao Wei took out his best product. This kind of heavy-duty subcutaneous armor is generally used by the military. Ordinary people cannot afford it. If you want to use it, you must use it with other prosthetics, otherwise it will greatly reduce the sensitivity. , the weight of this thing is still not light.

"OK, I understand."

Ke Ling nodded. Of course, this thing can't withstand the fire of anti-materiel weapons. After all, some light armored vehicles can't block it. With armor-piercing bullets, they are specially used for equipment. If you want to hit someone, you can't wait to shoot several of them. Don't worry about you. No matter what kind of subcutaneous armor he wears, it won't work.

"This subcutaneous armor costs 80,000. I know you can afford it now. You have shared a lot of Klee Hall's savings, right?"

While Lao Wei was preparing for the operation, he was chatting and laughing with Ke Ling. It had only been a while since Ke Ling, who was just starting out before, had already gained a lot of fame. The fame of V and Jack had also risen with the tide, and they were on the road. some status.

The identity of Devor Collins has become one of the urban legends in Night City. Night City seems to be particularly prone to such shining stars. He only hopes that Ke Ling can last longer and not lose his sense of proportion due to sudden rise. .

"More than 600,000 euros were divided among each person, and the rest was left to the priest and the old captain as working capital. After all, the stall is quite large, and profit is not the first purpose. We must leave enough working capital to cope with the situation. Possible trouble.”

Ke Ling replied that it is indeed necessary to keep more liquidity. In addition to Heywood and Santo Domingo, the Watson District also needs to expand its market. Jack is studying with the priest, and he is ready to take over the Watson District himself. market.

We really need some people with strong fighting ability to take charge here. The Tiger Claw Gang, the Vortex Gang, the Mox Gang, plus the Scavengers, a bunch of Crouching Dragons and Phoenix Hatchlings are gathered in Watson District. This place is a mixed bag of fish and dragons, and the strength is not fundamental enough. Can't open up the situation.

"By the way, change the optical camouflage for me. This thing is still very useful. Sometimes it needs to be a little low-key."

Ke Ling made a request. The optical camouflage was indeed very useful. He wanted to change it to a more advanced one. His current one was too easy to expose.

"No problem. When you have money, you have to be willing to spend it."

Lao Wei smiled, joked, and then pulled out his latest optical camouflage, which was much more effective than Ke Ling's old model. Of course, the price was also very beautiful.

"120,000. The latest version I can get is not even a little better than yours. It's definitely worth the money."

Lao Wei spoke highly of this optical camouflage, because he felt that Ke Ling could understand that it is very valuable to be low-key in doing things. Why do these children in Night City often shine like shooting stars for a while and then fall?

The existence of the company is naturally the first reason. If you want to get ahead in Night City, you must confront the company, and the power of individuals is nothing in front of the company. Those shining meteors will eventually be eliminated by the company. A slap on the ground.

Even if the Arasaka Tower was blown up like Johnny Silverhand, for Arasaka, whose business spans the world, it would only be the loss of a branch, not even a physical injury.

In addition, the character of these shooting stars is also an important reason for their fall. Once these street boys become famous, they will become more arrogant than the other. Few can see themselves and the situation clearly. In the end, naturally He will die miserably.

"Pretend! I'm rich! Give me another heart!"

Ke Ling didn't hesitate at all. Once he got rich, of course he had to strengthen himself. After all, as long as he was strong, he would make money faster and faster.

"The blood-activating pump, lung lobe expansion, adrenaline enhancement, rectification, and guidance are all arranged for me. Then there is a visual cortex and a microseismic generator. Well, let's install these for the time being. Help me pay attention to whether there is a better one on the market. Ann Westan.”

Ke Ling looked through Lao Wei's cargo list and clicked through them one by one. He actually didn't have many prosthetics on him, mainly because he had no money, and some junk prosthetics may not be as useful as his native ones. For example, some synthetic organs are not as powerful as his own, so there is no need to replace them.

The prostheses Ke Ling selected are all auxiliary prostheses. They are not direct replacements of body parts, but serve as the icing on the cake.

For example, the auxiliary heart is not a replacement, but a second heart, which will be automatically activated when the main heart fails.

The blood-activating pump can speed up blood flow, the expansion of lung lobes can improve the function of lung lobes, and the epinephrine suit can also speed up breathing and blood flow. These three prostheses are epic enhancements to breathing techniques. People practice breathing techniques hard, and they Direct physical enhancement, and he became stronger scientifically.

The visual cortex can enhance perception and facilitate aiming. Ke Ling has already practiced his marksmanship well now. With this addition, he no longer has to worry about miss-hitting, which greatly improves the use of non-intelligent weapons.

Microseismic generator, this is what Ke Ling wanted to install after using the chain sword. The function of this thing is to make the weapon in his hand vibrate at a certain frequency. It comes with a vibrator. It is said that some people have installed this thing. used to play

"Wait, I'll be satisfied."

Lao Wei shook his head and laughed. He was not worried about whether Ke Ling could bear it after installing these messy things. Ke Ling's body was like a machine made of flesh and blood. Installing these prosthetics was just like adding some parts. There is no impact at all, this can directly destroy the grasshopper's body.

"It costs a total of five hundred thousand euros to fix your fracture. The bulk of it is the accessory heart, optical camouflage, and subcutaneous armor. The accessory heart is the most expensive, 150,000. The performance of this thing is actually just like that, but even though it is expensive, I don't care. no way."

After getting everything ready, Lao Wei showed Ke Ling a look at the bill. Ke Ling paid directly without any hesitation. Now that we have money, we finally no longer have to owe Lao Wei any more.

After paying the money, he still had about 200,000 euros left. He kept the money to see if he could get a more powerful Sianwistan, or if he wanted to install a network access warehouse later.

"Get to work."

Lao Wei was gearing up, this was a really big order, and he hadn't taken on such a big order for a long time, but there was no pressure on him, and even if he made a mistake, there would be no consequences.

Ke Ling lay on the operating table and was at the mercy of Lao Wei. He was used to it. This kind of pain was numb to him. Of course it hurt, but it didn't seem that painful.

After a while, the time came to the afternoon. Lao Wei clapped his hands and put down the tools. The operation was finally completed successfully.

Ke Ling jumped off the operating bed and felt the changes inside and outside his body. The expansion of his lung lobes was the most obvious thing he felt, because his breathing had changed significantly.

Ke Ling activated the blood pump and adrenaline suit. He could clearly feel that his body temperature was rising and his blood was flowing rapidly. Every breath he took was like a whale swallowing, and the frequency was very fast, with strength, speed, and reaction. Significant improvement, this is the power of using science.

[The level of water breathing has been improved, currently Lv2. 】

A system message popped up, [Water Breathing] was upgraded, and he successfully upgraded it to a level through his own efforts.

In fact, Ke Ling had already expected this. The upgrade of Water Breathing was just the last step. This incident was just a catalyst.

"Changzhong is not far away, as long as we can find the feeling."

Ke Ling has no doubt that his body meets the conditions of Changzhong. What he lacks is just habit. He just makes his body more and more familiar with this breathing method. Or is it because he learned it too fast? Two months.

"Buzz!"

Ke Ling then started the micro-seismic generator, and his hand began to vibrate. This thing can be used without weapons. It can be used with fists. Well, it is best to use it with a melee weapon. Don't use this combat ability. on some strange things.

"How is it? Are you satisfied?"

Lao Wei asked. He was quite satisfied. His craftsmanship was still superb and there were no mistakes in the whole process.

"Awesome, now I feel like I can kill through Arasaka Tower."

Ke Ling gave Lao Wei a thumbs up and joked, which made the corner of Lao Wei's mouth twitch.

"I advise you not to do that."

Lao Wei's face was serious, as if Ke Ling would really go. This is a professional habit. Some people will be very swollen after installing prosthetics. As a prosthetic doctor, Lao Wei felt that he needed to remind him. Of course, it was just a reminder. This is his It's his duty, and whether he listens or not is beyond his control.

"Don't worry, I'm not a cyberpsycho."

Ke Ling complained, and then his phone rang, and it was V's profile picture.

"Ke Ling? What are you doing? Don't forget that we have an appointment with people from the Wanderer tribe this afternoon. Jack and I will go find you."

The call was connected and V's voice came over. Ke Ling couldn't leave yet. He had to go with V and Jack to meet friends outside the city.
