The surgery lasted all night, thanks to Gao Gong's lv5-level surgical skills and Professor Han's bionic modification plan, the surgery was very successful.
On a makeshift hospital bed, the pale-faced Fat Xiang lay down, as he breathed, the exposed skin surprisingly appeared faintly red.
When you save someone, you should go all the way; since the circulatory system has been modified, a subcutaneous blood pump and reaper cells have also been implanted.
Roughly calculated, after this modification, Fat Xiang's blood volume increased by at least +400.
This doesn't even include 'organ de-vitalization,' 'micro limb regeneration,' or 'peer hunting empowerment.'
These are abilities that even Gao Gong covets.
If it weren't for the severe biological rejection of the reaper cells, Gao Gong would have installed them on himself long ago.
A C+ level boss template reaper really produces a lot of good stuff.
Some B-level radiation beasts don't even have this quality of output.
Huang Yuanli's expression looked a bit tired; last night's surgery wasn't completely smooth, and several times Fat Xiang almost triggered a reaper queen consciousness revival, it was this little woman who helped him overcome the queen's consciousness.
However, she didn't complain; ever since becoming a 'brain toilet,' the little woman's willpower has increased significantly.
"I just saw Old Sunx coming over," Professor Han suddenly said.
"Yeah, he took a look, you guys don't seem to get along?"
"He was too outrageous back then, a betrayer can never be forgiven."
Gao Gong shook his head, not planning to dwell on these old grievances, and glanced at the system panel.
[Mission Completed: Reward Classical Stream Mechanical Hunter's Legacy]
Old Sunx didn't say much more, directly giving Gao Gong an address and opened the third ring of the mission.
[Mission Third Ring: Legacy]
Difficulty: Difficult-
Mission Brief: The rise of any profession is due to technological development, the Classical Stream Mechanical Hunter is no exception, what secret does their legacy hold?
Mission Objective: Go to the Classical Stream Mechanical Hunter's graveyard and acquire their former weapons, but always remember, be cautious of the undead.
Mission Rewards: Experience +2200, Implantable Biological Weapons *5, Biological Weapons Blueprint *7
That's quite a lot of rewards this time.
This indicates this task chain is nearing its end, generally speaking, a Level 1 civilization task chain is within 10 rings, a Level 2 civilization task chain up to 20 rings, a Level 3 civilization task chain 30, and so on.
Likewise, a Level 1 task chain is within the planetary range.
A Level 2 task chain is between several planet colonies.
A Level 3 task chain covers the entire star system.
...
For task chains like Old Sunx's, which go no more than five rings and are limited to a specific area, the difficulty is only medium.
In the later stages of the game, if you don't point out 'Advanced Space Theory' or 'Jump Technology,' just running tasks can kill you.
Of course, you can also buy superluminal spaceships from advanced civilizations, or rent the usage rights to a stellar state black hole; the price, however, often brings players to tears.
A hundredfold markup is nothing, these NPCs directly markup a thousandfold, and they don't care if you buy or not.
If you don't buy, there's plenty of low-level civilizations willing to go bankrupt to buy.
The address Old Sunx gave wasn't close, separated by two oases, Gao Gong decided to complete this task chain once the mole was dealt with.
No choice, he couldn't wait ten years to establish power from scratch.
And inheriting the Classical Stream Mechanical Hunter's legacy is a great shortcut.
As for the biological rejection the Classical Stream Mechanical Hunters worried about most, he wasn't without solutions.
Short-term measures naturally involve using blueprints, Gao Gong knows several blueprints to reduce biological rejection.
And the long-term method is when his level surpasses 30. After level 30, upon completing the initial fusion of carbon-based and mechanical, Gao Gong can use himself as a life template to solve biological rejection within the range of a Level 1 civilization.
This approach is akin to 'biomechanical technology.'
Ultimately, the reason Classical Stream Mechanical Hunters broke their legacy is not because this profession exhausted its potential, but due to a lack of corresponding technology tree upgrades.
In fact, after the Knight Order became the desert overlords, a large number of mechanical hunters were incorporated into the servant army, and with the Knight Order's technological support, these people fought quite well.
At this moment, a Cable Tribe girl hurriedly said: "Sister Lii, Brother Gao, suddenly a lot of people came outside."
The recycling station is still relatively hidden, and Gao Gong had repeatedly arranged for tribe members to reinforce the recycling station in every direction with barbed wire, artificial barriers.
And by now, those who could come here were most likely Little Finger's people.
Is this quack so efficient?
When Gao Gong rushed over, he found a group of people standing outside the barbed wire, armed, each wounded, expressions wary.
The tribe's warriors were in a standoff with them.
A small figure was angrily roaring.
"Damn cripple, let us in quickly!"
"No way, this is our home," Meng Duoduo shook his head.
"Get lost!"
"No—"
In a blur, a short figure appeared before Meng, and a fierce kick to his abdomen sent him sprawling to the ground.
The others' expressions changed as they hurriedly picked up their weapons.
However, almost simultaneously, another figure appeared at an even faster speed, the crack of a whip sounding as a long leg cut through the air.
"An expert!"
Matsushima Keiko was surprised, her knife holder quickly reaching for the incoming whip leg.
Yet the opponent was even faster; the black shadow of the whip leg folded in mid-air and rammed into her chest, viciously slamming her to the ground, causing even her metal hairpin to crack.
The five or six people following her were shocked, but before they could pull the bolts of their guns, a strange force suddenly caused their assault rifles to fly away.
Knives, swords, and even intelligent weapons had their connectors pulled off.
The opponent's speed was too fast to be seen by the naked eye.
A moment later, Gao Gong stood firm, throwing down a pile of weapons he held, and scanned the room coldly.
"What, are you here to cause trouble?"
A few of Little Finger's lackeys, seeing there was no show to watch, quickly plastered smiles on their faces and came over.
"Brother Gao, it was Brother Finger who told us to bring the people over."
"Damn, who dares to mess with our people!"
At this point, Huang Yuanli also arrived, rolling up her sleeves and gathering with a bunch of tribe members. Seeing Meng who had fallen on the ground, she quickly ordered someone to help him up, then glanced at Matsushima Keiko who had also fallen in the same position, and was slightly stunned.
The Little Woman calculated the height and instantly felt a sense of superiority.
"They tried to barge in from the start, and attacked when we stopped them," Meng said, suppressing his anger.
"You did well," Gao Gong nodded.
"Yeah, I'm confident when Meng Duoduo is handling things," Huang Yuanli added.
Meng glanced at the footprint on his chest, and considering his state of barely being able to fight back, a trace of gloom passed through his eyes.
Gao Gong's move immediately calmed the scene, and the still-unconcerned Matsushima Keiko, who had just gotten up, pleaded, "Please save Daisila."
"Three-Handed Daisy, what's wrong with her?"
Two of Little Finger's men opened a car door and carried a stretcher out, revealing that Three-Handed Daisila had now become Three-Handed Severed Daisila.
Gao Gong now understood why Little Finger had located them so quickly.
In the entire Automobile City, there were only two Prosthetic Doctors, and with injuries of this level, besides him, only Gao Gong could save them.
"Take them into the operating room," Gao Gong paused and cast a cold glance at Matsushima Keiko.
"And you, apologize to my man! He doesn't accept your apology, you don't come in."
"Brother Gao, there's one more!"
Another stretcher was taken down from a different vehicle.
This person was even more severely injured, their whole body unrecognizable, with electrical sparks occasionally bursting from key parts.
"This is Huang Wen, and he isn't dead yet?" Gao Gong looked for a while before recognizing the person.
"Brother Finger said this guy was invaded by an electronic virus, and the electronic prosthetic part was completely blown, leaving him with just a breath."
"But this guy seems to have some tricks up his sleeve; his subordinates brought his spare body parts."
Gao Gong looked at another group; calling them Mechanical Hunters was less accurate than calling them Mechanical Engineers.
"Please save our captain. As long as the captain survives, we'll give you a completely reasonable reward!"
One Mechanical Engineer spoke calmly, but deep within their eyes was great urgency.
"Brother Finger said he wasn't confident in such a full-body prosthetic surgery and asked you to treat it like a desperate gamble."
"I can't guarantee he'll make it through."
The Mechanical Engineer immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"As long as you're willing to try, regardless of the outcome, we can accept it."
Gao Gong nodded and made way.
"Another surgery? You've been doing surgeries all night," Huang Yuanli said worriedly.
"The chance to win over two captains at once doesn't come often."
"Have someone give Fat Xiang a different room; he's too big, and the operating room can't fit two patients."
"I'll find someone for that," Huang Yuanli nodded, then remarked, "By the way, where's Aunt Xiang? I haven't seen her all morning."
"Haven't you noticed something missing from the operating room?"
"What's missing?" Huang Yuanli tried to recall when all the parts in that room were too creepy for her; she avoided going in if she could help it.
But from her memory—
"Right, those six blades of the Reaper Queen!"
