As a player, can you be normal?

9:10 am.

Marger woke up from his desk.

He was stunned for a moment, and then immediately gave himself a mouthful.

Okay, wake up...

Then he took out a cigarette purchased in Novigrad in 1850 from his pocket, dropped it into his mouth, lit it and took a deep breath.

Okay, wake up completely...

The table was filled with Victor's medical cases in recent years and books on prosthetics. Marger spent a whole night using the special skill effects of [Mecha Specialization] to memorize all the key information in these things. Over and over again.

Marger has hated studying since he was a child. If it weren't for the appearance of a certain guy in elementary school, he would never have embarked on the path of studying medicine.

zuo~ha... Marjie held his face in his hands, looking like he had been played by the night devil all night, and muttered to himself: Biomedicine, technical expert, implant guidance, steam mecha and molecular technology Combined with the mechanical medical nurse...it feels like I have finished studying in a university in one night. Hum, if this knowledge can be brought into reality...I can control the nurses in the entire hospital.

He remembered that after hearing the sound of the mission being completed, his whole body relaxed and he fell asleep within a second.

Open the panel to view.

[Side mission completed: Assistant Victor]

[Task reward: Summon Victor’s projection (which can help you perform surgery at any time, or explain the knowledge of prosthetic transformation)]

Marger stared at the panel with regretful eyes.

In his mind, if he had money to hire a bodyguard, he would have to be a bald man, and a slender female bodyguard would be a joke...

But if it was a virtual projection, he still hoped that what was projected would be a mixed-race streaking elf mature woman.

Pity……

He sighed and opened the panel.

[Marger: lv17]

【Strength: 20】

[Reaction: 40]

[Spiritual power: 12]

[Physique: 37]

[Insight: 38]

【Medical: 32】

[Title: Sphincter Seller (you can have an opportunity to redeem a piece of shit every hour)]

Marger's panel falls into the category of normal players.

Not high, not low.

At around level 17, in a script full of ordinary people, his ability is basically the same as that of a low-level mutant who can dodge bullets. In Conan, he is probably at the level of Kyogoku's younger brother.

However, because Marger has been avoiding fighting in the script, relying solely on brain power and taking beatings to get to this point, his resistance to beatings and insight are very high.

He looked down.

There are several more abilities in the skill bar.

[Technical expert: Technical experts know that it is not enough to know where zero is and where one is, there must be a place to enter the code. They can easily calibrate implants, understand intricate parameters, and put this knowledge to use. Most people think they don’t need technical experts, but when they are cornered and the bombs next door start to explode, technical experts suddenly seem to become important]

[Prosthetist: A prosthetist is a profession between a surgeon, a technical expert and a tattoo artist. They are good at replacing limbs with metal prosthetics, that is, upgrading and strengthening your body, transforming you into a walking war machine]

[Bomegas Punk: In view of the special skills synthesized by special titles, some unsightly things often play an important role at critical moments. Of course, specific talents are required. Your technical ability is enough to support your creativity, so use your brain Loop]

[Steam researcher: Many people say that steam is an outdated product, but the power generated by the airflow after it is ejected has a high upper limit. Steam researchers like to put everything into a steampunk style. Who says that electronic technology cannot be integrated with steam]

The above four abilities are all creative skills.

That is, special skills generated after players master manufacturing-related abilities. They have no fixed moves and are more like the technology trees of those strategy games.

Therefore, the user's brain circuit determines the upper limit of these skills.

Marger took out the [Victor Projector] that was rewarded in the Victor mission.

【Victor Projector】

[Quality: Excellent]

[Effect: Summon Victor's projection. He is materialized, more like an inflatable doll, and completely obedient to your orders, as long as you don't let him do something that goes against human ethics]

[Brief description: Suppose all the inflatable dolls on the market turn into middle-aged men...]

Hmph... Marger sneered and pressed the [Victor Projector], which looked like a ball pen.

A cyan-blue translucent virtual portrait of Victor appeared in front of him.

Is it okay for you to do anything? Marger asked that Victor.

The other party nodded slightly: Yes.

Marger: Go take a dump at the door.

Virtual Victor: ...

Oh my God... The real Victor moved his body and walked out of the medical room.

Marger immediately turned off the projection equipment.

Victor walked to the coffee machine and took a cup of coffee. After taking a sip, he took the cup in his hand, turned and leaned against the wall, looked at Marger, he frowned and said, Don't you have any rest?

Marger snorted: Young people don't need to rest.

Victor laughed: Okay, then it would be a waste if you didn't go to work in Huangban... Let's get down to business, your companion's surgery ended two hours ago. I'm sorry, I was too tired at the time, Just fell asleep on the couch upstairs.”

How was the surgery? Marger asked.

Very good, very scary. Victor said: I have never seen such muscle density. I even used a water gun... The most amazing thing is that there is no rejection reaction in the body at all. It's like a child's toy to her, it's unbelievable. Can I ask, which country and company is she from?

Marger said: Square Enix.

I've never heard of it... Victor lowered his head and thought again: I've definitely never heard of it... forget it. He walked over and took out his electronic bank card and handed it over, saying, The surgery fee doesn't cost 250,000 yuan. More, I collected 120,000, and you can keep the rest.

Marjie took it and asked, How long will it take for her to wake up?

Victor looked at his watch and said, Probably within half an hour.

Then I'll... go out for a walk. Marger stood up, turned around and said, Thank you, Doctor Victor.

Victor didn't look at him, just raised two fingers to indicate.

When he opened the door, the sunshine outside shone in. Marger was bathing in the sunshine and almost couldn't resist the desire to take off his clothes.

In the alley above Victor's Clinic, there is a shop called Misty's Secret.

Victor treats gunshot wounds and stab wounds, while Misty repairs broken hearts.

Misty's Psychic House store is small, filled with various incense sticks, yarrow stems, Tibetan Book of the Dead separation chips and transshipment pendants to ward off evil spirits.

Misty had just opened the door, and business in the morning was generally not good. She sat on a chair, lazily leaning on the counter and looking at her phone.

Marger came in from the back door and opened the door curtain and made a ding-ding sound.

Misty said without looking back: Mr. Victor, you got up very early today.

Huh, Victor probably has to wait a while before going to bed. Marger stood on the side of the counter: This beautiful lady, is she doing serious business?

Misty felt very strange when she looked at Marjie. This guy... there was a perverse and unfathomable feeling deep in his eyes, and there was also a faint hint of a ruffian. To use a more magical term, he was The heart chakra is in a mess.

Misty joked, For shady business, I recommend you go to Kabukicho.

Ha? Hahaha, hum ... hum ... hahahahaha! Malcie successfully attracted special attention with Misti with a strange and bad smile. You are not part of my plan for this majestic continent with thousands of horses galloping across it, not to mention, it can be seen from your appearance that... the lady has someone she likes.

Misty was stunned: Hey, hey, hey... you're not here to destroy the sign, are you?

No, I want to tell my fortune. Marger said, The future and destiny are probably this.

Misty shrugged her shoulders and took out the tarot cards: Is this okay?

Marger nodded.

Misty shuffled the cards skillfully, and then said: Just something simpler will do. Your heart chakra is in a mess. I'll shuffle the cards, and then you draw three cards.

What kind of gameplay is this? Marjie was confused.

Misty: Well... you have to imagine two agents. First, draw their cards from the three cards on the left and the three cards on the right. The card in the center of their cards is yours.

Marjie nodded: I probably understand.

Twenty-two tarot cards were laid out on the table, and Marger pulled out three according to Misty's instructions.

Misty turned over the card that belonged to Marger and raised her eyebrows: Well... Queen, you know very well what you want. You are delicate and sensitive. To be honest, the Queen symbolizes creativity and growth. Don't ignore the unintentional impulse, but to trust your instincts.”

Marger pointed to the other two cards drawn: These two are my friend's agent cards. Can you take a look?

Yes, yes, but no. Misty opened the one on the left.

Magician... your friend likes to use his brain and pure will to adapt to any situation. He is also scheming and always has a hand in hand. Even if everything else is constantly changing, he can still control his own destiny. Misty shook her head. Said: You have to be careful about him.

Where's the other one? Marger asked.

Death...it symbolizes the imminent drastic change. One stage of life is about to end, and another is about to begin. In this change, some things will inevitably be lost, but they will also be replaced by other things. Misty put the card He said on the table: This person... seems to have not yet understood the meaning of his existence.

Marger felt that Misty's calculations were really accurate.

Okay, the foreplay is over, now we officially begin. Misty took out a magic bottle she made. Although the so-called fortune telling is just a trick to appease people, she is very serious about her work.

Isn't it over yet? Marjie was surprised.

Of course. Misty shrugged her shoulders and said, Everyone knows how to interpret tarot cards. What we have to do is to see what's in your heart...

Okay, that's it. You calculated very accurately, and I'll give you a reward. Marger said, taking out his mobile phone, buying an electronic travel card on a certain platform, and then handed it to Misty.

This is... Misty was stunned for a moment, and when she raised her head again, Marger was already gone.

After a while, a stout-looking man came through the door. His name was Jack Wells.

Jack is one of the important characters that the protagonist V of the original game comes into contact with in the early stages. He speaks with a strong Spanish accent and hates scavengers.

In Cyberpunk 2077, Jack's death is an important turning point in the tone of the entire story.

It was also from his death that the theme of cyberpunk began to emerge.

But that was a year later.

Damn it...that guy V went abroad without saying hello... Jack said and walked over to say hello to Misty: Hi, baby.

Misty said: Baby, I have a one-year travel ticket to Europe that leaves in four months. It's for two people. Do you want to go together?

You mean to let me leave here until I come back next winter? Jack said with a smile: Well... But if it's with you... God, this ticket is worth at least tens of thousands, right?

Yes, it was the reward given to me by a strange customer just now.

Speaking of strange things, Misty. Jack said seriously: Be careful lately. I heard that the Voodoo Gang is searching the whole city for a white-haired woman. I also saw people from the Voodoo Gang nearby. , conflicts may break out in the neighborhood at any time.”

White hair? Misty wondered.

Jack said: There was a white-haired woman with scars on her face who killed half of the voodoo gang in Taiping Prefecture by herself. She was really fucking awesome.

…

The white-haired woman with the scar?

Marger glanced back at Misty's divination house.

It can't be Ciri, right?

He took his mobile phone and called Li Nuo.

Unable to make a call.

This bastard isn't blowing up the building, is he?

He was not worried at all that something would happen to Li Nuo. After all, among the living people, he and Cha Bai knew Li Nuo best.

Wherever Li Nuo is, if nothing happens to others, it's good news.

Marger looked up.

I saw a man staggering over not far away.

It's daytime now, and it's not unusual to see drunkards in the alley after a night out.

But this guy in front of me...

His face was too... stiff.

When the two were five meters apart, the guy from the opposite side suddenly rushed over!

…

at the same time.

Cha Bai opened his eyes.

Ha ha……

She raised her hand tremblingly. The surgery had just ended, and her body didn't seem to be her own.

Very heavy.

Very heavy.

Chabai opened the backpack grid.

He took out the syringe of the blood medicine and inserted it into his body.

Then there was a thud in her heart, and she sat up suddenly, breathing heavily.

Then Chabai looked at his arm.

The right arm is the same as before, without any modification.

left arm...

still none?

But the location of the break was sealed by a metal plate.

On a table not far away was a metal arm.

Cha Bai unplugged the infusion tube inserted into his body and took off the breathing mask.

Legs stretched out from the white medical quilt.

Holding her chest, she stepped on the cold iron floor with her bare feet.

Walked over and picked up the arm.

[Anti-gravity suspended arm]

[Quality: Excellent]

[Effect 1: It can be placed at will at ordinary times. There are anti-gravity and suspension dual ports at the interface. You can control it to fly out or connect it to the arm port]

[Effect 2: The floating system can freely control the position of the arm within a radius of three meters]

[Effect 3: Made of meteorite iron and technological iron, extremely resistant to burning]

[Effect 4: The Adam Hammer Exclusive Gorilla Arm part is installed inside the arm, so the destructive power of its full blow is even comparable to that of a cannonball]

[Effect 5: There is a micro machine gun muzzle on the back of the hand, which can fire magnetic needle bullets (not yet completed)]

[Usage requirements: Strength 28, Constitution 120]

[Numerical bonus: Strength +10, Constitution +2]

[Brief description: You can think of her as a kind of floating cannon. It is still a semi-finished product at the moment. Victor almost died suddenly trying to make this arm]

Cha Bai picked up the silver-white metal arm. The joints on the arm were very conspicuous, and there were wire tubes exposed at the joints, giving it a diesel-mechanical feel.

She pressed her arm against the left stump.

ah……

A sharp stabbing pain shot straight into his forehead.

Now that she is no longer a complete robot, she has an almost complete sense of nerve pain, and the pain when her arms are connected seems to be twisting the nerves together.

A few seconds later.

She raised her eyes and looked at her left arm that could now move.

An unreal feeling arises in my mind.

It's like going from a robot back to a robot again.

But this time it was okay, at least most of the body was still flesh and blood.

[60% of the mechanical structure of your body has been replaced by flesh and blood, you already have a human brain, and you can act with your own thinking]

She looked at the panel about her physique and shook her head.

What are you thinking about...

Chabai tried to control his left arm and raised it to aim at the door.

Then he used the magnetic force and anti-gravity energy he could feel to detach the arm, control the robotic arm to fly to the door, and lock the door.

When her arms came back, she nodded.

Can.

Then she looked at her panel.

[Chabai: lv21]

【Strength: 31】

[Reaction: 35]

[Spiritual power: 40]

[Physique: 176]

[Insight: 24]

【Medical: 74】

Same as Li Nuo's Witcher.

She also has a unique artificial human physique.

The maximum attribute value bonus after each upgrade is 6 points.

An ability like Chabai's has completely exceeded the upper limit of players.

Gray-blue eyes looked down.

new skill:

【Five Types of Fury】

Using it too frequently will increase the load on the brain]

[Brief description: Born to be a warrior! 】

[Type: Skill]

[Effect: Under the skin of the back, there is a small muzzle hidden on each side of the shoulder that can be raised, which can be loaded with burning or electric cannonballs, or it can drive magic to load magic bullets. Each muzzle can fire one round at a time]

[Brief description: Backless clothing is recommended]

…

It seems that time is limited and we can only install so much.

That's enough. If you add more... you'll really be back to how you used to be.

Cha Bai thought so, looked at the nun's uniform on the chair, and then took out a brown vest from the grid in the backpack.

After putting it on, she picked up the clothes on the table that Victor might have prepared for her, and put on a white jacket and denim shorts.

Finally, I took out the tactical goggles from the backpack compartment.

at the same time.

outside.

Just listen to the bang!

Marjie bumped in from outside the door!

Victor, who had just closed his eyes to rest, suddenly woke up.

Marger immediately shouted: Mr. Victor, hide, there are several cyberpsychopaths!

Before Victor could react, he saw a thin man with slender arms rushing in from the door.

His body is covered with traces of prosthetic transformation, his face has no skin, his head is filled with implants, and his eyes have completely turned into several cylindrical lenses!

The corners of this guy's mouth were grinning upward crazily.

Then he swung his arms and hit Marger.

snort!

Depend on!

Marger blocked the attack, his arm was numb, and his other hand had already taken out a pistol, pointed it at the target, and pulled the trigger.

boom!

The moment the bullet was fired, the opponent suddenly teleported in place.

Both [Sianwistan] and [Klenzikov] have this effect.

But no matter which one it is, this guy is extremely dangerous.

What's more, at this time, another sturdy figure walked in behind him. He was like a hill of cybernetic who squeezed in through the door frame. He was also a full-body prosthetic body.

Both arms are rotating cannons.

Just as the sound of a gun going off was heard, the cannon was activated.

Marger immediately grabbed Victor and ran to the back room. The moment the bullet was fired, the two of them jumped into a small room where material boards were placed.

Marger released the skill [Rock Blockade] and struck the ground with his fist. The skill was triggered and the ground was forced to lift up to form a small rock shield.

The sound of machine gun fire is endless!

The walls and rocks were torn apart like paper by bullets.

The burly man-sized cyberpsycho didn't stop until he fired the last bullet.

Marger and Victor covered their bodies with materials and barely managed to withstand the fire from the revolver.

At this time, the wall in the other direction collapsed.

The two cyberpsychos looked there.

Cha Bai turned her back to them and had just put on her tactical goggles. She turned her head, stepped on the gravel with her bare feet, and asked softly: Marjie, are they enemies?

Miss Chabai...dangerous... Before Marjie could say the word dangerous, the lanky guy rushed towards Chabai.

He raised his arm, and his arm span was as long as a whip. The moment his arm touched Cha Bai's cheek, Cha Bai lightly caught it.

She removed the opponent's strength, then twisted the opponent's wrist with her knuckles, and with a click, she turned the opponent's entire arm over.

Ah...ah! Cyberpsycho opened his mouth, revealing the muzzle inside his mouth. The moment the bullet flew out, Chabai lowered his body at a speed that Victor couldn't see clearly, and pulled out [ Screaming Kitchen Knife], stepped forward with his left leg, and slashed horizontally with the kitchen knife.

Blood spurted from the man's neck, scarlet blood splattered on the ceiling.

The strong man reloaded the bullets. The moment the minigun fired the first bullet, Cha Bai raised his left arm.

The floating arm flew out and punched the opponent directly in the face. The huge impact knocked the guy weighing hundreds of pounds over, and then she jumped over, and bullets flew towards her at the same time.

In mid-air, there is an inevitable moment.

Cha Bai triggers [Witch Time].

The player's skill branch is related to the game in which he is playing. Li Nuo can learn the funny law of cause and effect skill [Serious Retreat], while Cha Bai has relearned the ability of the android period [Witch Time].

When the bullet came into contact with her body, her whole body suddenly turned into an afterimage and dodged away.

Several figures were left behind, and a knife fell in the air and chopped into the opponent's head.

She shook off the blood from the kitchen knife.

Marjie, where is Li Nuo?

It seems to be in the Kabukicho area. Marger stood up and said, Let's go first, we may be targeted.

Those two cyber psychoses were targeted operations.

Victor has no enemies.

So the target...is the players.

Hey...be careful. Victor stood up, dusted off his pants, and said, There are voodoo gangs nearby. It's possible that those cyberpsychotics are their work.

Cha Bai nodded: Thank you, doctor.

The two walked out of the room.

The first moment he entered the alley, two hooded men suddenly attacked him.

Chabai quickly dodged, and his left arm flew out to grab a person's throat and pin him to the wall. At the same time, he took a step back to avoid the slashing katana. He held the sword in his right hand and slashed open the opponent's head!

She controlled the other person's arm and sucked it back to the broken arm, and then asked: Why did you attack us?

The other person was a black man. She smiled and said, Fuck you, white-haired bitch!

Then the man's brain suddenly twitched like a short circuit, and his head came together.

Marjie... why did she call me a bitch? Cha Bai threw the body to the ground, and then asked: Bitch... what does it mean?

Marger said: That is to say, she thinks you are not as attractive as you.

Cha Bai wondered: What is their purpose?

I heard a rumor. Marjie walked to where the car was parked, pulled the car out for sale, and said, There was a white-haired woman who recently killed the Voodoo Gang. Maybe they think you are similar to that woman. office, so I started attacking you.

Cha Bai didn't understand even more.

At this moment, the electronic brain that had just been installed in her brain buzzed twice.

Cha Bai patted the back of his head, nothing happened.

But it was on the roof of a building a hundred meters away.

A hacker covered his eyes and roared: Fuck! What's going on in this woman's head.

One of the Voodoo Gang members asked, What happened?

The hacker said: You can't see matrices and numbers when you invade her brain, but it seems like you are in a maze, with countless things that can emit barrage light balls attacking me! Damn! She must be an alien!

The camera returns to Cha Bai.

Marjie stepped onto the sales cart and asked, Do you want to use the leather bag to bring Li Nuo over?

Chabai shook his head: No...he must be in an emergency. Let's go to Kabukicho to find him!

…

ps: (This chapter is also called - the protagonist who lives in other people's mouths)

This chapter is to make up for yesterday.
