Cyberpunk: 2075

‘The nerve endings are integrated. ’

"Zizzi."

Amidst the subtle noise, Carl opened his eyes again, and then saw Jack, Oliver, and Lao Wei who were looking at him with concern next to the operating table.

It looks like the surgery is over.

"How's it going? Is it okay?"

Jack wanted to touch Carl's face, but he retracted his hand halfway and said, "It looks no different from you before."

"The behavioral characteristics synchronization panel has not been launched yet."

After Victor glanced at Karl, his eyes refocused on the screen next to the operating table:

"I looked at this technology in detail and found that it can not only change the face, but also the voice. It seems that it has been processed when the voice is produced. It is obviously not installed on the neck, but it can do this. Military technology research and development It’s really not that simple... Wait a minute, Karl, I’ll set up a few sets of fine-tuned facial shapes for you and then save them.”

"Is this easy to operate?"

Oliver was a little worried that he might break Carl's face.

"It's very simple."

Lao Wei spoke in a very relaxed tone: "I'm not going to let Karl imitate someone or pretend to be someone. I might have to adjust the behavioral characteristics of the person pretending to be. What I have to do is to make some adjustments to Karl's behavior." It’s just a slight adjustment to the face itself, which is equivalent to a small plastic surgery. Can you understand, it’s just a self-changing surgery of the facial prosthesis.”

"Then can I get my face back, Lao Wei?"

Karl pressed his face and found that the feeling of touching it was no different from pressing his own face.

"Of course, you don't have any messy prosthetics on your face, not even bionic skin. If you had to deal with that thing, I would have to help you peel it off and stick it back on. The original body has many benefits;

When you no longer need this prosthetic body, I can just perform a minor surgery to remove it for you, but it will be a little painful, after all, the connection of certain nerve ports... Well, you know, but speaking of , didn’t Oliver tell you everything? "

"Aren't you worried that he is not a professional? You have to be reliable in this regard, Lao Wei. Listen, this prosthetic body seems to be better than expected?"

"Almost, it's almost like wearing a mask. It's much better than those prosthetics that replace human organs."

"That puts my mind at ease."

"But in terms of sequelae, it's not completely absent."

Just when Carl was relaxing, Lao Wei suddenly said this with a serious face, and it was this sentence that made Carl, Jack and Oliver all nervous.

Then, in front of the nervous three people, the seriousness on Lao Wei's face immediately turned into a smile.

"It's just that your face has been covered by the prosthesis. When you take it off, it may be very pale because you haven't seen the sun for a long time. But don't go out at night and be killed as a vampire."

Hearing Lao Wei say this with a smile, the three of them were startled and almost gave him a middle finger in return.

"Tch, even if there is a vampire hunter, I will kill him."

After rubbing his face again, Carl, who felt that there was really no difference, looked at the screen that Lao Wei was controlling: "Lao Wei, you have to adjust your face anyway, help me make a handsome face."

"You're already pretty good, Carl, but you still want to have a more handsome face." Oliver, who heard this, was speechless and complained: "You're not here to pick up girls in the academy, why do you want a more handsome face?" , are you planning to use your face to seduce them and get information in bed? Isn’t what you are doing just like the ‘Public Lover’ Lance Rock?”

"Your face is already very recognizable to Arasaka."

Victor said, pulling down the preset Karl's eyes on the screen: "If it's too beautiful, it won't be good if it attracts too much attention. I'll adjust it downwards for you."

"Isn't it because I'm so handsome?"

"Look how proud you are."

Jack smiled next to him: "I think Carl, you don't want to be a mercenary anymore. You can try to be a star. Maybe you can be very popular with your face and your talk."

"You're referring to those celebrities who have a lot of prosthetics, who use transformation as fashion, and walk around in their own messy clothes. Forget it, I don't intend to transform into an Adam Hammer in the entertainment industry."

"Are you referring to Lizzy Weisz? I have listened to that guy's songs a few times. Don't tell me, watching it in Mewtwo is quite shocking."

Oliver interjected from the side. He obviously also knew who Carl said was Adam Hammer in the entertainment industry.

[Ricky Weisz]: The leading lady of the bands Lizzie Weisz and Post-Dwarves, and also the only human band member, she once performed suicide on the concert stage and actually died for an hour until The trauma team arrived and replaced her entire body with prosthetics until she came back to life, and the performance she performed in her new body has been hailed as one of the greatest performances in history.

"There were a lot of inside stories about her show. For example, this hour was actually the rescue time. The trauma team arrived at the scene within a minute and replaced it with a prosthetic body prepared in advance. Listen It is said that Liqi Weisz signed the agreement in advance and it must be executed on site. Anyway, according to my experience in this area, the probability of rescuing a person who has been dead for an hour is no better than that of a space shuttle falling directly from the sky. Above How much higher does it carry the new President of the United States?”

Lao Wei's interruption actually made Carl, Oliver, and Jack look at him in surprise.

"What's wrong?"

While busy with the matter at hand, Lao Wei looked at the three of them a little strangely, not quite understanding why they looked at him in such surprise.

After a brief silence, Oliver said in disbelief: "Lao Wei, you actually know this. I usually only watch boxing matches with you, and you play them back and forth. I thought you didn't understand celebrities. Woolen cloth."

"Night City is one of the most famous singers and pop stars right now. It's hard not to know. I don't know how many customers talk to me about her while undergoing surgery. There are both good and bad. Some of them have heard a lot. Just remember, you won’t treat me as some old antique.”

As Lao Wei said, he stopped moving his hands and turned the screen next to the operating table to face Carl and the others.

"Let's take a look. There are four preset faces. Karl, pick one you like and try it first."
