From Gotham to Night City, my notoriety is known to everyone

The lights in the originally dim room suddenly came on.

Lao Wei wiped his face with a towel and walked out of the clinic.

"Here we go, here we go. I've been working here for so many years, but there aren't many customers who come in so early in the morning."

After opening the metal door with the control panel, he opened his arms and smiled.

"Welcome again, Leo. And...this is V, right? Jack and Misty both mentioned you."

Nobody: Chapter 59: Cybersurgery Potential

"Hello, Dr. Victor. I've heard about you from my colleagues too. They all say you're a very skilled doctor and that you used to be a very good boxer."

This was also the first time that V witnessed the power of the six degrees of separation theory.

She had only known Leo and Jack for three days, and it was really a novel experience to have heard so many people "talk about them".

Lao Wei put the towel on the table and said with a smile: "Just call me Lao Wei, kid, my time is over."

V hadn't been addressed like this for a long time. Unexpectedly, she was not angry at all, but felt a little friendly - the old V in front of her really gave her the feeling of a "reliable elder".

The two exchanged a few pleasantries and the topic shifted to Leo again.

"Tell me about you, Leo. Didn't we have an appointment for a follow-up visit in a week? Why did you come two days early? Are you not feeling well?"

Leo shook his head: "On the contrary, I feel great and my body has fully recovered."

He repeated his excuse that he had to go back to China in two days, and added: "If I change my prosthetic body in advance, I will have time to adapt. If there are any problems, I can contact you as soon as possible to adjust. I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of these things when I return to China."

Lao Wei didn't ask any more questions and strictly followed the doctor's rules.

"Okay, let's do a routine checkup and export your body data to see your potential for prosthetics."

Leo nodded obediently and quickly entered the inspection process.

While they were busy, V wandered around the house curiously, and was quite jealous of Old Wei's trophies and medals.

To be honest, if she had the money to buy a prosthetic body, she felt that she could also try her hand in the boxing ring. With her fighting skills and awareness, she might even be able to win a gold belt.

Half an hour passed in the blink of an eye.

Lao Wei looked at Leo's physical examination results and was amazed: "You have recovered very well, very well. I have to admit that your physical vitality is the highest among those I have ever seen."

Leo was excited: "What do you mean? My potential is particularly high?"

"No, no, no. Physical vitality and potential are two different things. In your case, we can only say that your cells are very active and have strong recovery capabilities. In other words, you are very healthy and look like you can live to be a hundred years old."

"What about my potential?"

"Don't worry, the next item is here."

Lao Wei clicked the mouse and switched to the biological monitoring data interface.

He opened a special software, imported the data, and started running.

The progress bar grew neither fast nor slow, and after a few minutes, the assessment conclusion was given - physical potential 11, reaction potential 12, intelligence potential 15.

Leo couldn't tell whether this was high or low, but judging from the expressions of Old Wei and V, it seemed not bad.

"How about the data...?" He couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

Lao Wei glanced at him and suddenly grinned: "Very good, no obvious shortcomings, and high intellectual potential. You have the potential to become a top hacker."

Seeing Leo's big smile, Lao Wei couldn't help but smile: "Don't be complacent, this is just the result inferred from the physical data in the biological monitoring. Just like their names - potential, you must undergo reasonable training to fully stimulate your potential."

"By the way, I have good news for you. Although your body is healthy, it obviously doesn't show much signs of exercise. As long as you train hard, your potential can be further improved."

Leo had anticipated this. Those muscular guys who like to lift weights in the gym are obviously improving their physical fitness through exercise.

When he thought about the fact that the basic attributes of V in the game usually did not exceed 6 at the beginning, he felt that he was good enough again.

If you practice well, maybe one day you will be able to defeat V Zhentian.

Thinking of this, he quickly glanced sideways.

V rolled his eyes at him, his disdain evident in his words.

Leo's mind moved: "V, what is your potential?"

"Anyway, I'm taller than you. I can't remember exactly." V put his hands on his hips, looking very proud.

Just as Leo was trying to trick V into revealing his potential, Lao Wei knocked on the table and opened the next page:

"According to the regulations, I have to add your cybernetic potential to your personal file, but... you can decide for yourself how much to fill in. I don't recommend filling in a higher number, but you can fill in a lower number. Do you understand me?"

I can’t fill in more, but I can fill in less?

The former is easy to understand. If an unreliable prosthetics doctor does not do any testing and just uses the data, and you fill it up and he directly uses a high-load prosthesis, something bad may easily happen.

But fill in less...

"Are you trying to hide your incompetence?"

V nodded. "The first bird to stick its head out gets shot. This saying applies to every industry. Your high potential will certainly attract the attention of the company, but it will also easily attract scum like scavengers. What's more, being noticed by the company may not necessarily be a good thing."

"Yes, I met some talkative mercenaries a while ago, and I heard them talking about Arasaka's 'Youth Hacker Training Center'. With your untrained intelligence potential of 15, plus your age is right, you can go directly to Arasaka Corporation with your data, and maybe you can go to that mysterious department."

Lao Wei pushed off the ground with his feet, slid away with the stool, and gave him the seat in front of the computer.

"Fill it out yourself. I suggest you fill out less anyway."

Leo nodded and listened to the advice and had a full meal.

That is - physical strength 10, reaction 10, intelligence 12.

Anyway, he and Lao Wei both know the real value, so they just need to pay attention to it when installing the implant.

Lao Wei said nothing and added his data to the personal file.

V put one hand on Leo's shoulder and said teasingly, "Alas, men are so concerned about their reputation... If you really want to hide your shortcomings, you can just fill in 567, but you are still obsessed with two digits."

This time it was Leo's turn to roll his eyes: "Pretending to be awesome is to slap people in the face. Pretending to be an idiot and being looked down upon by others is just sheer mental retardation! Besides... I bet your IQ is in the single digits!"

V's expression froze.

Leo instantly changed his words: "No! It should be no more than 5!"

After saying that, he continued to watch V's expression change to see whether to increase the bet to 3.

boom!

He didn't notice that the fist as big as a casserole blinded his eyes.

"Who cares? It's enough anyway. I'm not a hacker!"

"You can't be..."

boom!

Leo gave in and openly beat his employer and boss, a grudge he took to heart.

However, V is very impatient, which shows her intelligence...

Click, click, click——

The sound of clenching fists interrupted his bold imagination.

Lao Wei just watched them playing quietly, with a kind smile on his face like an old father.

After a while, Leo finally remembered the important matter, so - he lay on the operating table.

The last thing before the operation, of course, is to check the personal account: 2.5 euros.

Is it a lot? Not much...

The retribution for all the extravagant spending has come.

But Leo does not regret it. Before returning to Gotham, he wants to spend all his money to strengthen himself as much as possible and increase his survival rate.

Anyway, we have the guarantee of zero-yuan purchase, so what’s there to be afraid of!

But that's later, now...

"Old Wei, can I borrow some money from you using my original eyes as collateral?"

Nobody: Chapter 60: Mechanical Ascension II—His name is Krenzikov!

As soon as the words came out, Lao Wei and V looked at him sideways.

Leo himself was also a little embarrassed. He borrowed money the first time he met Lao Wei, and borrowed again when they met the second time. The image he had worked so hard to maintain was almost ruined.

"No... You've been spending lavishly these past few days. I thought you were very rich. How come you have no money left?!"

V exclaimed first.

She felt so devastated when she thought about Leo's generosity in the past few days, including buying a good gun, getting a platinum membership for the trauma team, and enrolling in Arasaka Academy.

It’s not that she despises the poor and loves the rich, but... even if she has money, she can’t spend it so recklessly. If she had known that his funds were limited, she should have stopped him earlier.

Leo has been strong all his life, so of course he can't admit defeat at this time.

"Who said I have no money? I just used the funds for other things."

He looked around like a thief and whispered to the two of them,

"I'll tell you something in secret, don't tell anyone else. I used money to open up smuggling channels between my hometown and here, and I paid for it in advance. My first priority after returning home is actually to select the goods. Once I bring those luxury goods back, I'll have plenty of money."

V was a little skeptical at first, but when he thought that the person he was going to meet was "a big shot of Arasaka Saburo's level", he became unsure.

As a street kid, she really didn't understand the "power" possessed by people of that level. Perhaps what seemed impossible to her was just a casual remark to them.

Lao Wei couldn't help but wonder: "Smuggled goods from the east? Or luxury goods... smart weapons and chips?"

"No." Leo shook his head. "This is my first time smuggling, so I plan to bring some safer goods - such as high-end alcohol and fresh organic food."

This was the conclusion he came to after many discussions with Chunbai.

Considering the characteristics of the cyberpunk era [high technology, low life], he felt that he could make a lot of money by bringing in some of the goods that were ubiquitous in Gotham supermarkets.

Especially alcohol!

Apart from anything else, the most common wine made from 100% grape juice costs only a few euros a bottle in the supermarket. If you bring it to Night City, you can easily spend several times the money.

At least 1000% profit, even capitalists would drool at the sight.

After listening to him, Lao Wei lowered his head and recalled for a while: "I have to remind you that alcohol is fine, but it is illegal to sell organic meat in Night City."

"I know. I saw it on the Internet..."

Leo was also speechless about this. The fact that there could be such a weird law only showed that the government had been completely hollowed out by companies.

And Whole Foods has really lost all its shame in its attempt to monopolize the meat market!

"I'll bring the organic food and we can eat it ourselves, and just sell the wine. I can get a batch of high-end original wine that has not been blended."

"Haha, that sounds feasible. I'll wait to benefit from your help." Lao Wei smiled. "Okay, since you said so, the pair of eyes will count as 80,000 yuan, but only for replacement of prosthetics with me."

"That's what I meant. Thanks, Lao Wei!"

Leo was relieved, and he could keep his own 2.5 to buy some ammunition. He could also get some more grenades and put them in the space so that he could transform into a violent grenadier at any time, which was also an extra layer of insurance.

Turning around, he saw V still staring at him.

"What's wrong with you?"

“No.” V scratched his cheek. “I was afraid you were pretending to be rich, so I took a closer look. I didn’t expect what you said to be true… Um, remember to bring me a bottle of tequila. I also want to taste the original brew.”

"Okay, I was planning to bring some of each type of alcohol to see which one sells best."

Now that we have finished talking about the trivial things, it is time to get down to business.

Leo picked and chose from Lao Wei's reserve and selected many prosthetic bodies that he liked.

But considering the doctor's advice not to install too many implants at a time, he finally chose the option of saving his life first.

Krenzikov Type 2, similar in function to a weakened Swanstein that cannot be turned on or off. It can enhance reflexes and gain abilities similar to [Bullet Time], allowing you to try to dodge bullets with your body.

Subcutaneous Armor Type 3, needless to say, improves physical defense, which is equivalent to wearing a high-end bulletproof vest.

The Viagra Pump Type 2 delivers medication directly into the body when the injury is severe, making it the perfect partner for biological monitoring.

Titanium Skeleton Type 2, there is nothing much to say, bones as the pillars of the body must be strengthened.

Leo wanted to continue picking, but Lao Wei stopped him:
