Chapter 37 037: Not suitable for close combat

The shop owner took over "Gambler".

He first put it in a professional instrument for a round of scanning and cutting tests, and then gave the katana a full set of maintenance.

"The custom-made materials of Faqi Industry are really great, there is no bending or curling at all."

The boss first admired and then glanced at John's body.

"But I don't recommend you use it."

The high-end monomolecular samurai sword sounds cool, but in street fighting it is more like a fashionable decoration:
Even a kid who just got beat up by a drunkard knows how to pull the trigger, and for a little money you can buy a gun with rocket-propelled bullets.

The bar for melee weapons is a bit too high for the general public.

But it also has a reason for existing.

First of all, ammunition is a limited resource. Secondly, certain prosthetic modifications are specially designed for close combat, such as neural synapses, alloy skeletons, and operating systems that can enhance movement capabilities and reaction speed.

Bullets may not penetrate armor.

However, the blade made of polymer material was sharply slashed at the joints and muscle points, and no matter how good the prosthetic doctor was, he could not save his life.

Ghouls and some gang members are fanatics of melee combat, and they especially like to pounce on people's faces with weapons, as if the sight of their brains flying around can bring them some kind of pleasure.

Prosthetic arms have become very popular on the black market in recent years.

They especially like to install pop-up blades on their arms, which are very cool when shaking out during street fights.

The police department issues wanted notices to perverts who enjoy dismemberment every day.

It didn't do much to crack down on illegal transformation, but instead encouraged this evil trend.

John agreed with them.

At this stage, there is no suitable prosthetic body, so using a gun is the safest option.

"But prepare it first. Melee chips are a hot commodity. Newcomers on the street like to buy them when they become famous."

Black men are also very candid. "I know the market best in business. The chips here are basically replaced every three to five days. I'm not sure what I'll get next time. It's wisest to buy in advance while there are good things. "

"What's your suggestion?"

"This samurai sword can be equipped with neurotoxins and equipped with a new handle to assist the grip. As long as it is not a high-density alloy corporate gangster, killing street gangsters is no different from chopping vegetables."

"Don't use it to cut fruit like a shark coin. Keep the thinner. If you really cut yourself, get a shot quickly."

[Module: Neurotoxin, Assisted Grip]

The boss picked out a few chips from the box, all of which contained sword skills that were rare in the black market. As long as they were inserted and loaded, and they practiced more frequently, they would become an instant weapon master.

[Action entry in progress, coordinated calibration, retry, loading completed. 】

Words flashed before John's eyes.

He pulled out the chip and found that the copper piece had been burnt black. The black light seemed to violently translate the content inside and imprint all the information in his brain.

"Is there a problem? I've killed poison before."

The boss saw that he looked abnormal, so he planned to reach out to get the chip back and insert it into the terminal to check again.

"No problem, I want them all."

John put the discarded chip inside the body armor, and then took out the money to pay - the account balance bottomed out in the blink of an eye, and he felt an indescribable pain.

"I'm so stupid with my money, Shet. As soon as I got a foothold, I just fucking squandered it all."

"Hahaha, I'm so envious of you, a young man who has no worries."

Macao took him back to the Bandage Boxing Gym to teach him some more.

John paused suddenly.

[Scan detected, attempted hacking, but the other party has canceled. 】

John stood in the shopping mall corridor, leaning on the cement guardrail and looking left and right, and then looked at a camera under the sign diagonally opposite.

His prosthetic eye was flashing, and a red data stream could be seen under the scanning filter - indicating that a hacker was trying to invade him through a remote device.

The other party made no further moves.

"Someone's watching, I gotta go man."

John kept things simple.

Macao insisted on taking him back to the boxing gym: "The area outside Borago Club is also the territory of the Black Gold Gang. I said hello to the person in charge to see if I can find out who is messing with you. You can't go out alone. This is not for you. Any chance of knocking someone out?"

"Uh, okay, I'm used to being a lone wolf. I didn't expect this." John followed him quickly back to the boxing gym. As soon as he entered the door, he found that it was full of people. The bottom of the ring was filled with onlookers. Even Gino was sitting Watching from a distance on the horizontal bar.

There is a free fight going on in the ring.

After John saw the appearance of one of them clearly, he blurted out Fake.

[Name: Eden Waits]

[Power: Haven Company]

[Scan: alloy skeleton, subcutaneous armor, etc.]

[Reward: Canceled]

[File: Direct descendant of the German Remmel gang, unmarried, retired lieutenant colonel in the Eden City War of Independence (Secret Service files), dog tag number has been deleted, external spokesperson of the Special Operations Force...]

Eden only stepped forward and punched.

Opposite the ring, a muscular man more than two meters tall fell straight to the edge of the ring, his prosthetic eyes flashed, and his braces fell off.

"Fuck, who the hell is this, beating the best fighter in my gym like shit?"

Macao crossed his arms, but was extremely excited. "I have to persuade him to go to the Borago Boxing Match!"

"I don't recommend you bring this up."

John sneered and shrugged.

Eden took his suit jacket from the blocker.

It is said that he fought six boxers in a row without even getting out of the warm-up state. At this time, he walked towards the door with many eager eyes.

John didn't run away.

Macao wisely gave way.

Eden motioned for John to follow him, caught a glimpse of the thing in his hand and asked to see it.

John didn't refuse.

Eden pulled out the blade and swung it over to check.

"It's a good thing, but if you take it out with this arm, you're courting death."

John didn't bother to pay attention to him and asked instead: "How did you find me?"

Eden pointed to the monitor.

"We have your apartment address. No one knocked on the door. Tinfoil checked your connections in the West End and intercepted a message, thinking you might come to the boxing gym."

"Tinfoil?"

"The hacker on my team."

"Oh, I was on the terrace just now...oh, no, the camera can't capture my picture. Can she bypass my external lens jammer?"

"Yes, but it's not necessary. Macao isn't pretending. We can just search for his image."

Eden had already arrived at the parking lot as he spoke.

A familiar military coated armored vehicle with a top engine, the combat department under the company's name will also use it to modify it.

Eden said, sitting in the passenger seat. "Go outside the city."

John opened the door, held the steering wheel, and drove the car onto the main road before asking Eden his purpose.

"So why are you looking for me?"

"I helped you fight the Nocturne problem, remember? I was out of town during this period, and when I came back, several intermediaries asked about it, saying that there was a non-staff employee at Haven Company who was particularly active."

"Haha, I never said I would work for you."

"That's what other people think."

"Are you angry? You said I could go work for you."

"You are so big-hearted and noisy. I checked what you did in the city recently. It's okay and doesn't disgust me. Then I'll let you do something for the company."
