Just as the battle at Arasaka Tower was raging, Gao Yuanyuan was also engaged in a fierce battle to deliver a baby.
Well, "fierce battle" was an exaggeration in the latter case.
Because of the Mechrift Star, natural pregnancy had become a relatively rare method of childbirth, so the profession of midwife had vanished into the dust of history.
