Sun Jack lay on the bed, listening to the rain outside, as if everything had quieted down.

And just then, the various emotions from before seemed to catch up belatedly, the lingering fear of death, the rejection of the unfamiliar environment, and the reality of having become disabled.

Sun Jack shook his head forcefully and stood up again. Now that he had arrived in this strange place, he had to adapt as quickly as possible.

Because if he didn't adapt as much as possible, he might face danger again.

Sun Jack walked to the sofa and sat down. He began to absorb knowledge as much as possible through the GG and news in front of him, gradually getting to know this new world.

As he browsed continuously, he gained a new understanding of this city, or even the entire new world.

The term "country" had completely disappeared, and the government system was gone. The entire world had become thoroughly capitalist, with large corporate conglomerates controlling cities with their capital.

This city, or rather each city district, was now controlled by major corporations. City management was handled by a city council composed of the largest few companies. Even security matters were collectively funded by them and outsourced to security companies.

So, strictly speaking, BCPD were not police, but merely security guards.

Of course, the companies did this not out of any sudden burst of conscience. Hoping for capitalists to have a conscience was less likely than hoping the moon would return to the sky.

They did this simply because a basic level of order was necessary to ensure maximum company profits.

As Sun Jack scrolled down, he saw the history of corporate struggles over the past century. For the sake of profit, companies spared no expense, engaging in wars, assassinations, and counter-espionage. They fought each other to the death.

However, seeing all this, Sun Jack let out a long sigh of relief. It seemed that companies only cared about making money. Everything was for profit. The archaeology industry had completely disappeared.

He, who had been frozen for a thousand years, was not the Tang Monk's Flesh that demons and monsters would eat. He was temporarily safe.

Of course, Sun Jack understood that he was only temporarily safe, not absolutely safe.

As Song 6 had said before, in this world, traffic was gold. If his identity were exposed, he would be in big trouble.

If he were truly discovered, Taipai would definitely destroy him without hesitation.

Therefore, his identity must be kept absolutely secret now, and he had to disguise himself as someone from this world as much as possible.

Thinking of this, Sun Jack looked at Taipai beside him. He was using his fiber optics to modify a wireless charging port into his own charging interface.

"Why are you looking at me? (´･-･)?"

"Nothing, you do your thing." Sun Jack continued to search for information. After temporarily resolving the safety issue, Sun Jack began to research the so-called neural system again.

He needed to understand as much as possible about this thing that was about to be installed in his brain.

"Come, come~~! Take a look at the latest neural enhancement network Titan Ver.1.15! Not only can it connect to any of your cybernetics as before, automatically displaying bullet counts, but it also has self-ICE to keep you away from firmware flashing! System hacks! Customizable ports, allowing you to plug in as many enhancement chips as you want, however you want! Whether it's the Pain Editor or the Taste Adjustment Module, it's all compatible..."

As he read through various GGs, Sun Jack gained a greater understanding of neural networks.

Simply put, this thing is like a mobile phone that can be inserted into the brain, allowing you to control your body like you control a phone. The higher the level, the more control you have, even over pain and physical strength.

It has to be said that this kind of thing is really outrageous, with so many functions and varieties, it made him want to buy one, but Sun Jack didn't forget that he was looking at GG.

No matter what world it is, when others talk about GG, they will only say good things and not bad things.

Judging from what happened before, the thing Baldy had before his death was clearly used to restrain the nervous system.

Anyone with a nervous system installed would have their head explode, but his natural brain allowed him to escape and make a comeback.

"Since the nervous system is a system, it can definitely be invaded by viruses. I don't care, the systems are all programmed in a thousand-year-old language. If you put the loopholes in front of them, they won't understand. But you are different, it's hard to guarantee that someone won't secretly leave a backdoor on the system and use you as a puppet," Taipai said, starting to recharge himself.

Hearing this, Sun Jack immediately felt uneasy and began to search quickly.

As he defined the keyword "nervous system virus," all sorts of bizarre cases appeared before him, even cases of people drowning in washbasins due to prosthetic malfunctions caused by virus invasion.

While the nervous system is incredibly convenient, it also brings all sorts of strange hidden dangers. Other things would be fine, but the problem is that this thing is installed in the head.

That night, Sun Jack barely slept, constantly struggling with the decision of whether or not to install the nervous system. If he installed it, there were various hidden dangers, but if he didn't, it would be like not having a mobile phone in later generations; in this technological era, it would be impossible to move.

Sun Jack, who had finally fallen asleep, was awakened by a knock on the door. "Bro, open the door quickly, it's me."

As soon as he opened the door, Sun Jack saw Song 6 standing at the door with his big gold teeth showing.

"Aren't you sleeping? So early?"

"Sleep? Bro, you're so old-fashioned, still needing to sleep. Hurry up and get the surgery done."

After so many shocking events yesterday, it was not surprising that people didn't need to sleep.

"Awesome," Sun Jack gave him a big thumbs up, washed up a bit, grabbed his jacket, activated Taipai, and walked out the door.

The three of them came down from the elevator, preparing to head outside the building. Sun Jack, still contemplating the nervous system, suddenly felt Taipai patting his shoulder.

"Jack, look, (◔-◔) factory, little B light."

Sun Jack looked up and saw a woman walking towards them.

It was Catgirl from last night, but she didn't have any of the seductive charm she had at the club. She was holding her high heels in her right hand and a cigarette in her left. Her eyes were drooping listlessly, looking like she had stayed up all night.

Sun Jack gave Taipai a displeased look. "Have some manners, will you? Can you stop giving people nicknames?"

"Linda Linda! What a coincidence? You live here too?" Song 6 greeted her familiarly.

Catgirl recognized the three of them, tilted her chin expressionlessly, and walked towards the elevator. She brushed past them.

Watching her retreating figure, Sun Jack felt a pang of sympathy. It wasn't easy for her, having to make a living doing such things at such a young age. She must be feeling terrible inside, right? He wondered what she was thinking now.

Just as she got into the elevator, a sexy and pleasant voice drifted out, "Damn it, what bad luck. Running into three idiots right after work."
