The iron grate door of the basement was being pulled open with a crackle, making a small noise. In the basement, where the overall atmosphere was slightly dark red, a man with a tough face sat on a small chair and looked at a small machine with a calm expression. television.
The picture displayed on the screen was obviously another boxing match. This older, middle-aged tough guy had always liked this kind of event. Going back so many years, he was one of them, swaying in the boxing ring. Sweating hotly, the honor belongs to oneself.
The older you get, the more you reminisce about the past.
Lin Mo understands this feeling very well, because even in the Blue Star world in the past, even if the picture quality and version could not keep up with the times, many ancient games still had a little bit of residual heat left, and there were always some people who still insisted on sticking to it. With.
The sound of opening the door attracted the man's attention. He still wore the brown glasses on his face, and his eyes were hidden under the glasses.
But judging from his expression, he was quite surprised when he noticed Lin Mo's arrival.
"Why are you here? Are you not having a good time at the Afterlife Bar? It's been too long since you visited me, an old man."
Victor smiled kindly and quickly turned around to face the young man who walked in.
There was no way he didn't know about Lin Mo's recent news.
At any rate, he personally helped him implant Si'an Westan, and he was able to personally train a mercenary who could enter the bar of the afterlife. He was also proud of it.
"The main reason is that I can't get away. There are many incidents piled up for me to deal with. And Uncle Victor, you also know that I am still a student and I always have to go to and from get out of class."
Lin Mo shrugged helplessly, walked to the table and sat down on the table.
Victor smiled and said disapprovingly:
"Really? But I don't think a top mercenary who can hang out in the bar in the next life will care about the school schedule."
He pointed at Lin Mo's crest and said with a gentle smile:
"I'm old, but I haven't forgotten the day you asked me to help you implant the speed component and Krenzikov. Even the side effects of the prosthetic body can't stop you. The school's rules can restrain our top Are you a mercenary?"
Lin Mo smiled bitterly when he heard this and said:
"Stop teasing me, Uncle Victor. I have just entered the Afterlife Bar not long ago, and I am not a top-notch mercenary."
At present, except for his accomplices, Mann and others, people like Victor, Misty and others do not know his other identity.
Wakako noticed something strange, but there was no clear evidence. However, based on the old fox's intelligence network, it was probably possible to guess another layer of his identity.
Sometimes, a little disguise and a false identity are enough to hide from the prying eyes of many people with malicious intentions.
Moreover, in a big dyeing vat like Night City, unless you kill a truly top boss like Saburo Arasaka, it may not be that easy even for the top executives of the company to get someone.
Hearing Lin Mo's self-effacing words, Victor just smiled and said nothing more.
He continued to ask:
"Tell me, why are you here looking for me today?"
"I brought a friend here. He also wants to implant some prosthetics in you. By the way, I would like to ask uncle to help you check the Sian Westan I implanted." Lin Mo said briefly.
Victor glanced at Lin Mo in surprise, and said with a slight surprise:
"I really didn't expect you to do business for my shabby place... As for the maintenance of your prosthetic body, there is no problem in this aspect, but I want to ask, did you take the medicine on time as I told you?"
"Of course, how could I not listen to what Uncle Victor said?" Lin Mo replied with a smile, his attitude was very obedient.
"Oh, if you had listened to me honestly, you wouldn't have implanted this prosthetic body in the first place. But what the Japanese man said is right. You do have your own ideas. I can't say anything to you, young man. People, we, the older generation, can’t see through it.”
Victor's back was slightly curved, his hands were placed on his thighs, and his tone was very emotional.
After all, who could have thought?
Not long after the speed component was implanted, this kid was like a rocket, quickly making a name for himself on the road.
Even Jack, whom he was very optimistic about, was far behind compared to this kid.
"Since you are taking the medicine as required, have you had any physical symptoms recently, such as dizziness and nausea?" Victor asked again.
"No, I even feel that Si Anwei Stan is becoming more and more comfortable to use." Lin Mo said truthfully.
Except for the first time he overdrafted Sianwistan, which caused him to feel dizzy for more than ten minutes, he has not experienced any negative symptoms so far.
If you really want to find the reason, it may also be related to the reaction attribute. Now that he has a reaction attribute of 15, his talent may have reached an unprecedented level.
"That's good. You lie down on the bed first, and I'll help you do some maintenance right away."
Victor nodded, fiddled with the prosthesis on his right hand, picked up the pneumatic syringe and replaced it with a nerve-stimulating agent for injection, and then neatly arranged the next maintenance surgery for Lin Mo.
The operation went on in an orderly manner. It was not until Victor connected Lin Mo's personal prosthetic body information that a small hiccup occurred.
"It's unbelievable... how on earth did you do it, kid! How many times can you use Si'an Westan continuously in one day!"
There was a rare look of shock on Victor's face. He looked at Lin Mo as if he were staring at a monster. He was always calm and calm, but his tone of voice fluctuated a bit.
Since it is maintenance of prosthetic bodies, it is natural to retrieve the usage records of various prosthetic bodies and the current status of maintenance.
Now, the information displayed on the screen also showed Lin Mo's past record of using Si'an Westan in front of Victor without reservation.
"Actually, I don't know much about this." Lin Mo said carelessly.
Victor's eyes continued to focus on the information displayed on the screen. After a long time, he sighed quietly, as if he had seen him for a long time and said with emotion:
"With so many uses of Si'an Westan, a normal person's body would have collapsed long ago."
"But there is nothing wrong with you...Lin Mo, if there is a problem, please don't hide it from me. Do you really have no symptoms at all?"
Lin Mo denied it decisively: "Absolutely not. It's impossible for me to make fun of my body."
Victor stared at his face for a while, as if trying to see if he was lying.
It could be seen that Lin Mo's expression was not strange at all, and the biological signs displayed on the screen were all within the normal range. He finally had to admit this fact.
"That's good. It seems that you, the boy, were born for this prosthetic body. To be honest, boy, I have implanted prosthetic bodies into many people, but you can use them multiple times in a day. The speed component people, I’ve only seen them on TV news, they’re all cyber maniacs.”
Victor sighed while patiently maintaining Lin Mo's prosthetic body.
"It's no wonder you were able to enter the Afterlife Bar so quickly. With your talent, you definitely have the potential to become a legend in the future, kid!"
