V was numb: "No!"

Vera introduced herself gently: "Hello, doctor, my name is Vera, I am a wanderer, and I have just arrived in Night City."

"Oh...you can call me Lao Wei, that's the advantage of being old~"

After a brief greeting, Leo got straight to the point: "Old Wei, we are all planning to add or upgrade prosthetics. Please do a physical examination for us first to check our health status."

"No problem. There are four of you here. It will probably take a while. I'll close the door first to prevent anyone from breaking in."

Lao Wei went to close the iron gate and began to check several people in an orderly manner.

Routine physical examinations are quick, and most items can be done by four people at the same time, and the physical examination reports can be obtained in almost the same time.

The Eternal Life Team had a harmonious relationship within themselves, and no one had any intention of avoiding suspicion, so they gathered together to check the physical examination results.

Lao Wei clicked on the computer screen, and the first thing that came out was Leo's report.

He took a quick look and nodded. "Very good. You have been training hard recently. All three potentials have increased by 1 point. Now your physical potential is 12, your reaction potential is 13, and your intelligence potential is 16."

Leo smiled and quickly glanced at V: "I have been exercising seriously recently, so it is normal for my physical fitness to improve. I didn't expect that my intelligence would also improve!"

Lao Wei explained: "The growth of intelligence potential is different from the other two. It requires you to use your brain more and think more. When your thinking activity increases, your potential will naturally increase. Those schools promote that going to school makes people smarter, based on this principle."

V understood his sarcasm, but because of the presence of her elder, Lao Wei, she couldn't get angry, so she urged him, "I'm next, show me now!"

She was right, she was next.

"V... Shit!"

Lao Wei was so shocked that he even cursed.

Everyone looked over immediately.

V's three potentials are: physical potential 20, reaction potential 20, and intelligence potential 5.

“Is this a human too?!”

Leo finally understood why he couldn't beat V. With his physical fitness, if he was serious, he could suppress him with one hand...

Lao Wei checked repeatedly, carefully examining each item. He also took out the professional book of the cyborg doctor and compared her values with those of "normal humans".

The conclusion is - if the biological monitoring is not broken, then V's physical potential may really be that high.

"No, there is another possibility..." Lao Wei rubbed his brows with an extremely strange expression, "The upper limit of the implanted physical ability is 20, which does not mean that her potential is only 20."

"But how should I put it... the limit of normal humans is this value. If it exceeds this value, it can only be said that her potential cannot be measured. Just like those great scientists and inventors in history, their intelligence potential may also be measured at 20, but everyone knows that their intelligence is 20 different from that of ordinary people."

V nodded happily, "So...I can be Ans-An Westin!?"

Lao Wei took a breath numbly: "In theory, except for those implanted by hackers, you can install anything you want."

"I knew it would be like this!!"

V was very proud of himself and looked around the audience with a look of a weakling.

First Show of Strength: Chapter 123: Lao Wei: "Night City is haunted, and there are numerical monsters everywhere..."

I can’t beat him. I can’t beat him at all…

Leo simply shrank back, hoping she didn't remember the taunt.

Jack also scratched his head. He had always thought that he was the main attacker and the best player in the team. Unexpectedly, there was a statistic weird in the team...

Lao Wei didn't know what expression to make. Over the years as a cyborg doctor, he had seen thousands of patients and mercenaries, if not tens of thousands. This was the first time he had seen one with such high potential.

What's even more outrageous is that although V's figure looks good, there is nothing particularly exaggerated. Is it because his muscle density is higher than that of normal people or what, can he create a top-notch physical potential...

Unable to figure it out, he could only do his job first: "I'll help you adjust the biological monitoring values, so that others won't be able to see the real data in the future. Don't let the big companies find out, or they will really kidnap you and do human experiments."

V nodded obediently.

After disguising herself for her, Lao Wei reached out and touched his chest. He felt his blood pressure was a little high and began to feel confused.

"Okay, just pick any prosthetic you want. Just don't put on too many at once, and there won't be any problems. Let's look at the next one, Vera... Oh my god..."

Lao Wei was speechless.

Night City is haunted, and there are numerical monsters everywhere...

Leo's initial value is exaggerated. He is definitely a high-quality human being, but he is the eldest son carefully trained by a large family. This value is purely the result of resources.

But how did this wanderer, who didn't look very wealthy, develop such an outrageous value...

Vera——Physical potential 14, reaction potential 20, intelligence potential 15.

The reaction potential is full, and the other two items are also very strong. The total value is even 4 points more than V.

This is a versatile person with no obvious weaknesses, and it is obvious that she is also very smart.

Lao Wei was a little dazed, and the first thing she did was to check her biological monitor again - it was not the latest model, but it was okay and the data should not be wrong.

Vera saw his confusion and explained, "I'm a mechanic. I made a little money by repairing cars and guns, and bought myself some decent prosthetics."

"Well, okay, I'll modify it for you too, so that the real data won't be leaked..."

V's smile was a little forced and he felt a little pressured.

But at the same time, a strong fighting spirit was also burning in her heart - she had never lost since she was a child, and she couldn't lose this time. As long as she strengthened her exercise, her physical fitness would definitely improve further!

Seeing this number, Leo felt very complicated.

On the one hand, V's Unit-2 is also very strong, and she is also a genius mechanic. She is definitely more useful than V in situations other than combat, which makes him very happy.

On the other hand, it's not so good. He feels that...even if the two of them join forces, they may not be able to defeat V...

Lao Wei finished his work numbly, tapped the screen with his finger, and below was Jack's physical examination report.

Jack-Physical potential 18, reaction potential 14, intelligence potential 8.

Lao Wei smiled with relief: This is much more normal. Jack's big body has high physical potential. Besides, he has been in the gang for so many years and was able to quit alive. It is normal for him to have such reaction potential.

This is what ordinary people should be like.

Of course, this doesn't mean that Jack is not strong. His physical fitness is already that of a top mercenary, which is more than enough for him to apply for a terrorist mobile team.

A team of four, four stats monsters, plus their captain is a big money sponsor, not only has money but also background...

When Old Wei looked at them, he felt like he was seeing four future legends of Night City. They were so young, yet had so much potential.

"It feels a bit early to say this now, but I'll say it in advance." Lao Wei looked at them and suddenly grinned, "Don't forget your old friends when you become rich in the future."

Leo laughed along, "That's right. We've come to you now! The medical report is out. The next step is to choose the prosthesis, and then you can help us place the order, Lao Wei. Is that ok?"

Lao Wei nodded: "I can help you place orders from the company, and I can also get some kickbacks. If there is such a good thing, then there will be no problem."

Leo knew that this was just a joke. In fact, the price they paid if they purchased it from the company's official website or went to Cyberpunk "R" Us would only be higher than the price offered by Lao Wei.

The company may give some preferential treatment to prosthetic doctors who have been cooperating with the company for many years, but it will never be lenient when charging ordinary people without any background.

What's more, Lao Wei is a certified and trustworthy prosthetics doctor. You can feel at ease using it after he has checked it.

"I will send you the prosthetic purchase list directly. The models and prices on it are the prices the company will charge when it ships to me. You can choose according to your needs. If you have any questions, just ask me."

After receiving the information sent by Lao Wei, everyone began to study it.

The only exception was Vera. She looked around blankly and said to Old Wei, "I just came to Night City and haven't started work yet. I won't participate. I'll sit here and wait for you."

Leo glanced at her distractedly and decided to use the omnipotent money offensive to capture Vera's heart.

"We are a top team, and our players must be elite. I will approve a quota of 30 yuan for you, and the portion you use will be deducted from your future salary and share of profits."

"…30?"

Vera was a little dumbfounded. This number was really unexpected.

She has just joined the team for a few hours. Is it really appropriate to give her so much money directly?

Seeing her hesitation, Leo urged her, "Don't employees of the company also have benefits? Your improved ability will help the entire team, so don't dilly-dally."

Vera could see that he really didn't care about the money, so she began to look at the list of prostheses in a daze.

A quarter of an hour later, after discussion with Lao Wei, everyone's reinforcement list came out.

First is Captain Leo. He currently plans to become a technician and will go to Arasaka Academy, so he gives priority to an intellectual prosthesis.

Contao Camillo RAM Manager Type 4, Contao Memory Enhancement Type 4, Biotech Bioconductor Type 4, Contao Smart Connection Type 5... If you want to choose it again, Lao Wei will not agree.

"You are a human, not a robot. If you put too many implants into your body in a short period of time, any malfunction will result in inflammation and immune response that will kill you. In addition, the first three of your implants are frontal cortex implants, so you better be careful."

Leo had no choice but to give up his one-step mechanical ascension plan.

"Okay, but you have to help me upgrade all the prosthetics I already have."

"Don't be stupid. If you want to do this, just delete two new implants."

"No, Lao Wei... Then, upgrade my network access pod to Type 5!"

"No, you can only upgrade to Type 4 at most. Once your intelligence potential increases by two points and you have systematically learned hacking knowledge, I can upgrade you to Type 5. This is for the sake of your life."

"Oh... that's fine."

Leo gave up struggling and chose to listen to the doctor.

Showing off one's talents for the first time: Chapter 124: Collective strengthening!

A quick calculation showed that Leo's prosthetics purchase bill was as high as 11.7 euros.

The most expensive of these is the upgrade component for the Arasaka Network Access Bay, which costs 1 Euros to upgrade from Type 4 to Type 3.

The most advanced prosthesis he has is the Kangtao Intelligent Connection Type 5, which he forcibly added to the procurement list in order to make up for his own lack of combat capabilities.

Fortunately, the prosthesis used to control intelligent weapons has a small load, otherwise Lao Wei would not agree.

"The rule of big companies is that the advance payment must be 50% of the total price."

"It's okay, I'll pay the full amount right away, and the cost of the surgery will be calculated later."

Leo paid the bill for the prosthesis directly. Being rich is so generous!

Next is naturally V, and her choice needs no further explanation.

"I want the Denaras Anvistan Model 5, the Mantis Blade Model 5, and help me change the Krenzikov to Model 5, and -"

"Don't worry, even if you are physically strong, you can't just come here and put on a bunch of stun guns. The combination of Sian Westin and Krenzikov is a huge burden on the body, not to mention that you want the best model available on the market."

Lao Wei interrupted her.

"Well, I can give you these three implants, but you have to adjust the pain editor higher."

“Ah!? That won’t do. Mercenaries rely on this to make a living!” V shook his head quickly, his shoulder-length hair flying all over the sky.

Lao Wei tried to persuade her but failed, so he simply changed his target: "Leo, you'd better talk to her too. She has adjusted the value of the pain editor to 70%, which is very dangerous."

Seeing Leo's confused expression, Lao Wei quickly explained the working principle of the pain editor - by inhibiting nerve conduction, reducing the range of pain that the human body can perceive.

In other words, it is to deceive the body's self-protection mechanism and gain a short period of combat endurance.

"Pain editors are basically standard equipment for mercenaries, and they must be from big brands. No one dares to use products from unknown brands. However, even for first-line mercenaries, a value of 80% is very low. 70% is basically only used by those lunatics in the Uzumaki Gang who abuse prosthetics and suffer from pain."

"In V's case, let's put it this way - you punch her hard, she can feel it, but she can't feel how much pain it is.

The same is true when being shot. Many mercenaries die from excessive blood loss or internal organ damage without realizing it because they neglect their own pain. "

After hearing what Lao Wei said, Leo became anxious: "What are you waiting for? Hurry up and raise her value!"

V refused: "I'm a mercenary, you're weakening my combat power!"

"I'd rather you be weak than turn into a cold corpse if you're not careful." Leo walked around behind her and put his hands on her shoulders. "I'm the captain, listen to me! 80% is enough, Lao Wei, transfer her up now."

Lao Wei came over with a medical instrument.

V was breathing heavily, very dissatisfied, but she finally let Lao Wei connect to the personal port and quickly adjusted the value of the pain editor.

Leo breathed a sigh of relief when Old Wei made an OK gesture.

Fortunately, V didn't struggle with all her strength, otherwise he and Old Vic wouldn't be able to hold her down.

Before he could equip the Swan Westin and the Mantis Blade, he was weakened instead. V was so angry that his face puffed up, and he rarely showed his childish side.

But for some reason, she felt that she was not too angry, and her feelings were very complicated...

After dealing with V, the next two people will be easy.

Jack had just recovered from a serious injury, and Old Wei didn't allow him to do anything reckless, so he simply replaced his original prosthetic body with a well-known brand Type 4.
