Even Jack and Lu Qi on the side were surprised.

"Old Wei, what are you talking about? Didn't V just come back to life, why is it that time is running out?"

After recovering from the bad news, V asked again in disbelief:

"Can you say that again?"

"The chip in your head is like a bomb. Now that the fuse has been ignited, you... don't have much time, a few weeks at most."

"The silver hand's consciousness body is covering your consciousness, and it will gradually occupy your body. At a certain time, you will...disappear."

Although it sounds complicated, Lu Qi, a visitor from another world, understood it all at once.

In short, in V's body, in addition to his own consciousness, there is also a consciousness called "Johnny Silver Hand".

Consciousness, or soul, is more appropriate.

As time goes by, Johnny Silverhand's soul will destroy V's soul, thus occupying V's body and achieving rebirth.

At that time, V is no longer V himself, but Johnny Silverhand with V's body!

From the perspective of cultivating immortals, this is the so-called rebirth after seizing the house...

Hearing these words, the half-knowledgeable Jack couldn't help saying: "Old Wei, you can cure V, right?"

Hearing this, V, who was immersed in the sad news of his death, couldn't help raising his head, and looked at Victor with hopeful eyes.

However, both he and Jack were disappointed:

"If I had my way, I would. But... I've never seen anything like this..."

This answer is obviously not what V wants.

"You know, you are the best prosthetic doctor I know, even you, can't save me?!"

"Sorry, V..."

Seeing Victor's expression, V's heart sank, and he suppressed the inexplicable fear and anxiety in his heart, and then asked: "Old Wei, tell me everything you know, the more detailed the better!"

"Well, here's the thing. There's a consciousness, or soul, on the chip that was Johnny Silverhand 50 years ago."

"You stuck it in your own nerve socket, and it was fine at first, right? Until you died."

Hearing this, V couldn't help but frown:

"You mean I was dead when Dexter Shawn shot me in the head and dumped me in the dump?"

"Yes." The prosthetic doctor nodded, and then said: "But the chip saved your life. The outer layer of the chip first repairs your damage, and then it is like a relative who attaches great importance to you, firmly Holding your hand, coaxing you to come back to life."

"How is this possible? How can the dead come back to life..."

Before finishing speaking, V suddenly remembered what happened when Lu Qi rescued Jack.

At that time, Jack also seemed to be dead...

"It was impossible before, but now that the Arasaka company has come up with this kind of technology, it's so difficult to come back from the dead."

When he came back to his senses, V's mood became more and more irritable, and he even raised his voice a lot:

"What about me? What about my soul?! I have just passed through the gate of hell, but do I pretend that nothing happened, and then quietly wait for my doomed death?"

"Go ask the Arasaka engineer who built this thing! All I know is that your consciousness will dissipate, and the process is painful. From the perspective of the chip, your brain is a tumor that needs to be removed. And your body is to carry that consciousness empty shell."

"In other words, that terrorist wants to kick me out of my own body and occupy my body!"

Sighing, Victor immediately said:

"It doesn't matter what he said. The whole process is automatic and inevitable. You can only watch and can't do anything."

At this time, Jack on the side couldn't help asking:

"Old Wei, can't you take this damn chip out of V's head?!"

"Absolutely not, he will die immediately!"

As soon as the words fell, Lu Qi, who had been thinking, suddenly said:

"So, how about this?"

After the eyes of the three people came together, Lu Qi expressed his thoughts:

"Although I don't know what is going on with this chip. However, since it can store the consciousness of a person who died 50 years ago, and then take another person's body to achieve resurrection; then, we must The same method can be used to revive V's consciousness through another person's body!"

"So, can we extract V's conscious body, upload it to a chip, and then find or rebuild a new body for him, and then put the conscious body back into the new body, so as to solve this problem ?”

Lu Qi's analysis made the three of them startled for a moment, and then fell into contemplation by coincidence.

After a while, Victor raised his head and said:

"To be honest, I don't know. However, what you said is not impossible. However, the answer to this question can only be known by Arasaka Corporation, which has developed this technology and chip."

"that's enough!"

As soon as the words fell, Lu Qi walked towards the hospital bed, met those eyes full of confusion and anxiety condescendingly, and said in a deep voice:

"V, I just have one question, do you want to save your own life?"

Looking directly into Lu Qi's deep and calm black eyes, the complicated emotions in V's heart gradually calmed down as if infected.

"Of course I do!"

"Then are you willing to do anything for this goal?"

"There is only a glimmer of hope, and I will grab it without hesitation! Even if it may cost my life, I will not hesitate!"

Getting up from the hospital bed and standing barefoot in front of Lu Qi, V finally regained the courage he had when he first came to Night City:

"Because, instead of sitting on the bed and letting the soul die slowly, it is better to stand up straight and fall on the road to survival!"

Nodding approvingly, Lu Qi immediately said:

"Very well, if you are not willing to fight for your own life, no matter how much others say, it will be useless."

"Listen, there is only one choice for you, and that is to overthrow Arasaka and win the right to survive from those who developed this technology!"

After a pause, Lu Qi immediately stretched out his hand and patted V on the shoulder:

"However, don't worry, this road destined to be full of thorns is very interesting. I will accompany you and walk together!"

As soon as the words fell, Jack stood up abruptly and said loudly:

"And I!"

"So what about the Arasaka company, even Saburo Arasaka will die, those company dogs are just like us, they are just a head and two legs."

"So, fuck it!"

Hearing this, V and Lu Qi looked at each other, couldn't help but smiled, and shouted in unison:

"Fuck it!!!"

6 Chapter Forty

Of course, no matter how loud the slogan is, the Arasaka Empire will not be able to hand over the relic chip technology.

If they want to save V's life, if they want to step on Arasaka's corpse and become a legend in Night City, they have to go get it themselves!

However, even though it has been decided to go to war with Arasaka, with V's current weak state, he can't even stand up, it is not a good time to fight against the giant Arasaka Empire.

Moreover, before dealing with Arasaka, they must know what kind of enemy they are about to face.

Knowing yourself and knowing your enemy can win a hundred battles!

Before learning more about the strength of the Arasaka Corporation, it is the best policy to gather information and formulate a plan...

Under the neon lights, beside the road.

After watching Jack help V get into the car and leave, Lu Qi then looked away and took out his phone:

"What's going on with you, Ciri?"

"There is news. Something happened to Parker. He was lifted out of Yunding by members of the Tiger Claw Gang!"

"Oh?!"

What surprised Lu Qi was not only Evelyn Parker's situation, but also the name "Tiger Claw Gang".

The Tiger Claw Gang, like the Maelstrom Gang, is one of the most famous gangs in Night City.

Most members are of Japanese descent, and the main areas of activity are Japantown in Westbrook, Kabukicho in Watson, and Little Chinatown.

Like the Vortex Gang, members of the Tiger Claw Gang have unique identities: glowing tattoos, samurai swords, and speeding street motorcycles.

However, everyone knows that the seemingly unruly Tiger Claw Gang is actually the lackey of the Arasaka Company.

The people in the company are all dressed in clean and tidy suits, and on the surface they are decent people who support the company's interests and rules.

However, in the city of sin, no matter how decent people are, they have to come into contact with those dirty things that happen in the dark from time to time.

And these jobs have to be done by someone.

Therefore, in order not to stain the dog-like suit on the body, the company decided to find some agents for itself, that is, gangs.

The company uses gangs to control the bottom of the city so that they cannot threaten the glamorous upper society of the pyramid.

And Arasaka Company, as the largest company in the entire Night City, has more than one lackey.

In addition to the Tiger Claw Gang, even the Vortex Gang, where Lu Qi is now the boss, is also Arasaka's lackey.

The bodyguard of Arasaka Laixuan, the "Grim Reaper" Adam Hammer of Night City, is a member of the Vortex Gang.

It's just that for a higher status and power, Adam Hammer abandoned his gang identity and put on the company's "suit"...

All this information has been learned from Brick since Lu Qi became the boss of the Vortex Gang.

However, Arasaka seemed a little slow to react to the fact that he, a newcomer who came out of nowhere, took the Uzumaki Gang into his bag.

Perhaps it was because of the death of Arasaka Saburo that plunged Arasaka Company into chaos and turmoil, which made them have no time to care about the replacement of the boss of the Whirlpool Gang.

In any case, this gave Lu Qi some precious time...

Thinking of this, Lu Qi turned to the other end of the phone and said in a deep voice:

"Ciri, Parker is very important to us, I need you to bring her here!"

"I see."

. . .

Yunding is a senior sex club opened and protected by the Tiger Claw Gang.

And Evelyn Parker is a sex doll working here.

The reason why she has a relationship with Arasaka Yoshinobu is also because of this identity.

However, what she didn't expect was that her entrustment led to the death of Saburo Arasaka, and also put herself in a near-death situation...

While working in Yunding, the behavioral chip in her brain was suddenly invaded remotely and overloaded, burning her circuit, causing the nervous system to collapse, and finally fell into a downtime state.

The guest who was almost intimidated by her immediately notified the staff of the club.

After checking Parker's serious condition, the Tiger Claw Gang decided to suppress the news and secretly sent Parker to a cheap prosthetic doctor for treatment.

However, as soon as they went out, they were stopped by Ciri.

Before the members of the Tiger Claws could react, Ciri, who had already adapted to Night City, shot and killed several people, rescued Parker, and brought him to Victor's clinic.

After some diagnosis and treatment by the prosthetic doctor, Parker finally changed from a motionless "corpse" into a body that could vaguely feel life.

Seeing Victor, who had undergone two surgeries in a row, his face visibly haggard, and then glanced at Parker who was lying on the hospital bed sleeping soundly, Lu Qi asked immediately:

"Victor, how is she?"

"It's okay." Wiping the sweat from her neck with a towel, the prosthetic doctor then responded: "I replaced her with a new circuit, restored her nervous system, and dealt with the scars on her body. It will take a certain amount of time to rest. to recover slowly..."

"It's just that the Chaomeng implant in her body has been damaged to a certain extent. I'm not an expert in Chaomeng, so I can't extract the data inside."

"Super dream implant?"

"It's an advanced device implanted in the body that can convert all the experience and feelings of the implanter into digital records. This kind of thing is rare and expensive, let alone appear on a broken sex doll... "

Hearing what Victor meant, Lu Qi just twitched his lips and said casually: "A woman who can get close to the prince of the Arasaka Empire is not an ordinary sex puppet..."

"Then when will she wake up?"

"At least until the afternoon."
