Sandevistan!

As the hospital bed was wheeled out, the other volunteers grew nervous as well.

Seeing that Test Subject One was lying safely on the hospital bed, merely asleep from the anesthetic, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.

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

This was Dr. Otto's area of expertise.

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

Future Technology's prosthetic limbs had already gone through many upgrades.

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

Otherwise, wouldn't they be incredibly cool?

Dr. Otto didn't need an assistant at all—or rather, his four mechanical arms were his assistants.

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

Besides, installing a prosthetic limb wasn't difficult.

Soon, the metal arm was attached.

By then, the test subject on the bed was nearly awake.

"Mm!"

The test subject slowly opened his eyes, and 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 come closer, then asked, "Can you feel your arm?"

Hearing this, the test subject instinctively tried to look at his hand.

Dr. Otto held him down and said, "Don't use your eyes. Use your mind."

"I...I can feel it. It's just like part of my body."

The test subject followed his instructions and sensed it for a moment before speaking excitedly.

"Now control it. Raise it."

The metal arm lifted.

"Move your fingers. I'll call out a finger, and you move that one..."

Dr. Otto continued.

Then he began a series of fine-tuned tests.

This filled Dr. Otto with immense surprise.

Previously, even after people had prosthetic limbs installed, they could use them only in the most limited ways. They could barely even grip a water cup.

Now, with the help of the Brain-Computer Interface, they could control the fingers precisely.

That was because the Brain-Computer Interface contained an ordinary Basic Senses chip, which enhanced the user's sensory perception of the prosthetic limb and body.

That was why the prosthetic fingers could be controlled so precisely.

"It was a complete success. Next, we just need to see whether there are any side effects."

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

"Excellent."

Li Wei led the applause, and everyone else joined in.

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

Now that the experiment had succeeded, Li Wei and the others didn't stay any longer.

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

"No problem."

Dr. Otto nodded.

Red Queen immediately spread the news.

This was a major step forward for Future Technology Company.

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

After entering the elevator, Coulson said with a smile.

"So am I."

Li Wei nodded.

"Here's to a successful partnership. We'll transfer the first payment immediately."

Coulson extended his hand.

Li Wei shook it.

The honest man didn't linger. He immediately returned to report the news.

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

There would be plenty to do next.

At the very least, his company's security team all needed to be fitted with Brain-Computer Interfaces first.

One Brain-Computer Interface wasn't enough, in Li Wei's opinion.

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

"Ten consecutive draws!"

He opened the system and started drawing without even looking.

[Congratulations on completing ten consecutive draws. You received the following rewards.]

[MaxDoc Mk.3 *4: Instantly restores eighty percent of health.]

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

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

[Electronic Bionic Eye (Ordinary): Can only scan people, read vital signs, and perform other such functions.]

[Weapon Core *2: Used to enhance Eve's basic attack power with 'Blood Edge'.]

Soon, as the rewards appeared, Li Wei felt that he had gained a great deal.

It was as if he had entered a Cyberpunk-themed draw.

But that was exactly what he needed.

He stared intently ahead because he had reached the guaranteed reward for ten consecutive draws!

He had already recognized the truth of his terrible luck.

In any case, he could only rely on the guaranteed reward to get anything good...

A flash of golden light burst forth.

[Militech 'Apogee' Sandevistan: Once activated, it slows the flow of time while increasing damage and critical-hit rate. Its duration depends on the user's physical fitness.]

[Note: Forced use may cause the body to collapse and carry the risk of turning the user into a Cyberpsychosis case.]

Li Wei shot to his feet.

The sudden movement startled Eve and 2B in the office.

"Master, what's wrong?"

"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 shame Lily isn't here. Otherwise, she could enhance me directly."

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

Li Wei didn't hear her. He walked straight out.

Dr. Otto had said earlier that there was no new technology, but now there was.

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

The moment Li Wei saw it, he remembered his days in Night City as the "Time-Stop Sword Saint." Whenever he activated the Sandevistan, a single Mantis Blade could slash all the way from south to north.

The most outrageous part was its time-stop effect. It could reduce the flow of time by as much as ninety-nine percent while leaving the user's own speed unchanged.

To the user, everyone else became a "tortoise."

However...

It seemed that not just anyone could use this thing.

Ordinary people didn't have strong enough minds to activate its abilities. Their bodies would collapse outright, turning them into Cyberpsychosis cases.

In Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, David became that way because he kept forcing himself to use it despite having insufficient talent.

If it were the famous "V," this would all be child's play.

So now even technology depended on talent.

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

A smile immediately appeared at the corners of his mouth.

The famous V?

Could V's talent really surpass that of 2B and Eve?

The two of them were ultimate artificial humans!

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

Li Wei directly had Red Queen appear.

"Otto, I thought of some prosthetic limbs that could be used in conjunction with it. Take a look."

Hearing this, Dr. Otto knew it was a sure thing.

He hurried over and said, "Li, you're a genius. Anything you invent is trustworthy."

No, you're the real genius.

Li Wei, the fraud, 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 looking over the blueprints.

"Oh!"

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

I think you're just hungry...
