Sandevistan!

As the hospital bed was wheeled out, the other volunteers were also tense.

When they saw that Test Subject No. 1 was lying safely on the bed, merely asleep from the anesthetic, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"Next, we'll install his prosthetic limb."

Now they had entered Dr. Otto's area of expertise.

His mechanical arms immediately pushed the bed over to install the prosthetic.

Future Technology Company's prosthetics had already undergone many upgrades.

Unfortunately, Li Wei had never drawn things like Gorilla Arms or Mantis Blades from the Cyberpunk World.

Wouldn't those be cool?

Dr. Otto did not need assistants at all. Or rather, his four mechanical arms were his assistants.

Now that he had a Brain-Computer Interface, he could multitask even more effectively.

Besides, installing a prosthetic was not difficult.

Very soon, the metal arm had been installed.

By then, the test subject was already beginning to wake up.

"Mm!"

The test subject slowly opened his eyes. Dr. Otto immediately asked, "How do you feel?"

"Not bad."

The test subject was still somewhat dazed, and his speech was sluggish.

Fortunately, Dr. Otto was very patient. He told the others not to approach, then asked, "Can you feel your arm?"

Hearing that, the test subject instinctively wanted to look at his hand.

Dr. Otto stopped him and said, "Don't use your eyes. Use your consciousness."

"I... I can feel it. It feels just like my own body."

Following his instructions, the test subject sensed it for a moment, then said excitedly.

"Then control it. Raise it."

The metal arm rose.

"Now move your fingers. Only move the one I call out..."

Dr. Otto continued.

Then, they began a series of precise tests.

This delighted Dr. Otto beyond measure.

Previously, even after prosthetics were installed, people could only make slight movements with them. Even holding a cup of water was difficult.

But now, with the help of the Brain-Computer Interface, they could control individual fingers precisely.

That was because the Brain-Computer Interface contained an ordinary chip called Basic Senses, which enhanced sensory feedback from prosthetics and the body.

That was why they could manipulate the prosthetic's fingers so precisely.

"It was a great success. Next, we'll see whether there are any side effects."

Dr. Otto announced the news to Li Wei and the others.

"Excellent."

Li Wei took the lead in applauding, and everyone else followed.

The test subjects brought by S.H.I.E.L.D. were especially happy. They saw a chance for their lives to return to normal.

Since the experiment had succeeded, Li Wei and the others did not stay any longer.

"Dr. Otto, I'll leave the rest to you."

"No problem."

Dr. Otto nodded.

Red Queen immediately released the news.

This was a major step forward for Future Technology Company.

"Mr. Li Wei, we're very satisfied with the experimental results."

Once they entered the elevator, Coulson said with a smile.

"So am I."

Li Wei nodded.

"Pleasure working with you. We'll transfer the first payment immediately."

Coulson extended his hand.

Li Wei shook it.

The honest man did not linger and immediately went back to report the news.

Once he and Black Widow had left, Li Wei returned to his office as well.

There was plenty to do next.

At the very least, his company's security team needed Brain-Computer Interfaces installed first.

Li Wei felt that a single Brain-Computer Interface was still not enough.

So he sat on the sofa and continued what he had left unfinished earlier.

"Ten-pull!"

He opened the system and started drawing without even looking.

[Congratulations on completing a ten-pull. You have received the following rewards.]

[MaxDoc Mk.3*4: Instantly restores 80% of health.]

[Chip—Neural Hack (Blueprint): Can remotely control electronic devices.]

[Chip—Inspiration Surge (Blueprint): Increases creativity and inspiration.]

[Electronic Eye Implant (Ordinary): Can only scan people and read vital signs.]

[Weapon Core*2: Used to increase Eve's Blood Edge's base attack power.]

As the rewards appeared, Li Wei felt that he had gained quite a lot.

It even felt as if he had entered a Cyberpunk-themed draw pool.

But those were things he needed.

He stared ahead intently, because he had reached the guaranteed reward for the ten-pull!

He had already accepted the fact that he had terrible luck.

Anyway, he could only rely on the guarantee to get good stuff...

A flash of golden light appeared.

[Militech "Apogee" Sandevistan: Once activated, the flow of time slows, damage and critical-hit chance increase, and duration depends on the user's physical fitness.]

[Warning: Forced use carries the risk of bodily collapse and becoming a cyberpsycho.]

Li Wei shot to his feet.

He startled Eve and 2B, who were in the office.

"Master, what is it?"

"It's nothing, Eve. These are for you."

Li Wei took out the two Weapon Cores and tossed them to Eve.

Holding the two cores, Eve said happily, "It's a pity Lily isn't here. Otherwise, she could directly enhance them for me."

Lily Artemis II was the engineer of the Fifth Airborne Squad.

Li Wei did not hear her. He headed straight outside.

Earlier, Dr. Otto had said there was no new technology. Now there was.

This was a Sandevistan, known as the "time-stop artifact."

The moment Li Wei saw it, he recalled his days as a "time-stop swordmaster" in Night City. Once the Sandevistan was activated, he could take a pair of Mantis Blades and carve his way from south to north.

The most absurd part was its time-stop effect. The flow of time could be reduced by up to ninety-nine percent, while the user's own speed remained unchanged.

Everyone else became "turtles" in the user's eyes.

However...

It seemed that not just anyone could use this thing.

Ordinary people did not have sufficiently strong minds to activate its abilities. They would collapse directly and become cyberpsychos.

In Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, David had ended up like that because he kept forcing himself to use it despite not having enough "talent."

If it were the famous V, though, this would be nothing.

Well, now even technology depended on talent.

Just as Li Wei was getting a headache, he saw 2B and Eve following him.

A smile immediately appeared on his lips.

The famous V?

Could V's talent possibly surpass 2B and Eve's?

Those two were ultimate androids!

They returned to Dr. Otto's laboratory, leaving Dr. Otto somewhat surprised.

Li Wei directly summoned Red Queen.

"Otto, I thought of some prosthetics that could be used together. Take a look."

Hearing that, Dr. Otto knew it was settled.

He hurried over and said, "Li, you're a genius. The things you invent are trustworthy."

No, you're the real genius.

Li Wei, the impostor, felt a little embarrassed by his praise.

But a lie repeated a thousand times became the truth, and he quickly regained his composure.

By then, Dr. Otto was already studying the blueprints.

"Whoa!"

"Li, you really are a genius. If this Sandevistan can truly achieve a 'time-stop' effect, I can't imagine how powerful it will be."

Dr. Otto was genuinely excited now.

"Can you make it?"

Li Wei asked.

"Of course. All the data is here. If I can't make it, I'll eat it!"

I think you're just hungry...
