The two of them stayed in the corridor of the Prosthetic Hospital for a long time, until Radol completed first aid and was sent to the ward. After the other party's mental state stabilized, they entered the ward.
"You came just in time."
Radol was lying on his back. He nodded at the coat that was hung on a hanger and was torn by the explosion, and said, "I have a pack of cigarettes in my coat pocket. Please help me get it."
When he was pushed into the ward, he made the same request to the nurse, but was ruthlessly rejected and turned around and gave him a lesson.
What is said about smoking being harmful to health?
Just kidding, these people have no idea what he went through today.
At that time, there was only a second or two before he could not be sent here intact. But even if he was saved, his world view was greatly impacted. Now he has to light a cigarette to calm down his turmoil. Mood.
For the only time in his life, he mustered up the courage to resist the company and was prepared to die. However, he did not die. This made Radol feel that the current situation was a bit stiff. He deeply realized that pretending to be a hero is not that easy. of.
Song Lan said the same thing as the doctor, "Smoking is harmful to health."
"Stop being verbose and be quick." Ladore waved his hand impatiently, "I don't mind myself."
“According to research, second-hand smoke is even more harmful.”
"you……"
When Radol was agitated, the pain in his abdominal wound made him break into a cold sweat. He gritted his teeth and said, "Forget it, you are here for the unification of technology."
He wanted to be the Riddler and greet his death with great fanfare, but failed to do so. After being rescued, he inevitably fell into a situation where he could confess and be lenient.
Ever since the cyber madman who turned into a monster appeared out of nowhere, the ending he had planned for himself has been disrupted. Now Radore just wants to complete the routine interrogation work as soon as possible and have a quiet time. , "The name of this project is called 'Awakener'. A desperate mercenary once found out about this name."
"Go on."
"This is a project fully implemented by Uni-President Technology within the territory of the United Government. It is said that for this project, they have specially created a file called "Roster of Awakened Persons". This file includes various city prosthetic adaptations through various channels. Once people with high degrees of abuse are included in the roster, they will become the focus of their attention."
It is often said that psychic ability is an innate talent that only a lucky few can receive.
But in Radol's opinion, prosthetic body implantation and physical transformation are the same. The only difference is that the latter two are relatively easy to get started, giving people unrealistic fantasies.
20% of the combat-type prosthetics are the limit of ordinary people's physical endurance. In the decades since the establishment of the coalition government, the body has been almost completely transformed into prosthetics. The only person left with a brain that has not lost his mind is a barren skeleton. one.
In fact, more than half of the prosthetic bodies of Desolate Bones were developed and researched by unified technology.
So, what is the basis of these studies?
It is a success piled up through countless failures.
"They will put the selected adapters on the roster according to different levels and carry out different degrees of prosthetic transformation on them."
Ladore said, "Most people cannot refuse the conditions offered by Uni-President Technology to transplant military-grade prosthetics for them for free. This seems to provide them with the possibility of breaking away from their current class and giving them the opportunity to become the envy of everyone." As a 'company person', I admit that for a long time in the past, part of my job as an intermediary was to persuade those targeted by Uni-President Technology to agree to their terms."
But they will never understand that no matter how favorable the terms the company offers, they will never lose money.
"Those who accept the "Roster of Awakeners" plan are equivalent to selling themselves to Uni-President Technology. Regardless of whether the prosthetic transplant is successful or not, they will become the company's property. Even the Cybermaniacs are no exception. They have developed a A means to put cybermaniacs into hibernation, wake them up when necessary, and release them to a selected location.”
"Invincibility starts with sacrificing the ancestor"
This is how the "hyena" died, and it was almost revealed in the cafe near the border checkpoint.
"As for those whose prosthetic bodies are successfully implanted, they will be transported back to the core area to continue working for the company. Anfiya, who you are investigating, is ranked very high in the "Roster of Awakened Persons" in District 17. This is The reason why they want to control Anfiya even if they murder a department head, according to my speculation, the ultimate purpose of this plan is to create another desolate skeleton."
A desolate skeleton completely controlled by unified technology.
However, the physique of Desolate Bones is so special that Uni-President Technology has been looking for it for so many years, but has not been able to find any example that can come close to it in the degree of prosthetic transformation.
"Those law enforcement officers who died while investigating missing persons before were because the investigation finally led to the investigation of Uni-President Technology."
"Understood."
Lu Xiang nodded.
Radol solved many doubts in her mind, but it also gave her a new doubt, "It's a miracle that you can survive until now."
"It's all thanks to those two stupid mercenaries."
Radol laughed, as if he was nostalgic for a past event. A middleman like him who works for a large company should not mix personal emotions in his work, but it is inevitable that there will be a few people who can leave a deep impression on him. , "They actually stole the roster of District 17, and they almost escaped from District 17."
Thanks to these two "idiots", he saw the contents of the roster by accident and kept it as the deepest secret in his heart.
Even after knowing that Uni-President Technology had the idea of silencing them, he had no intention of telling the matter.
Because that immediately increases the intensity of the pursuit by several levels.
"If you continue to investigate, you will encounter it sooner or later."
"What happened?"
"The humanoid weapons developed by Uni-President Technology are not comparable to those of Cybermaniacs."
And those two "idiots" also died on the road to the "outside world" because they were chased by humanoid weapons.
Uni-President Technology's branches do not want to go to war with "enthusiastic citizens" unless necessary, but if they are at the end of their rope, they will definitely use the humanoid weapon.
Radol looked away, he was just waiting for a result.
I don’t know whether the next person who comes to visit me in the ward will be a law enforcer or a killer sent by Uni-President Technology.
"Wish ya'll good luck."
