"Kantao, your smart electronic solutions."
"This is Kantao, this is smart."
A holographic airship dragged a long holographic banner through the sky, playing Kantao’s advertisents.
Smart weapons were Kantao’s main business area, and in fact, they had the best chip manufacturing technology and the most advanced smart neural network technologies from a basic technology standpoint.
Kantao’s subsidiary, Cai Pin, was responsible for the developnt and sales of cybernetic prosthetics, but in terms of quality and sales volu, there was still a gap compared to the leading companies in the military technology implant market.
For example, the sa type of prosthetics, "Si Anweisitan," even the top-end Cai Pin model couldn’t beat the second-tier products of Military Technology.
This was a top-tier prosthetic that could enhance the entire body, penetrating the gray matter through the spine and connecting to the marrow, affecting nearly every muscle and nerve.
It could extract every ounce of the body’s potential, boosting mobility and reaction speeds to the extre in a short period.
For the users, it felt as though ti had slowed down, or even stopped.
However, due to its invasive enhancent of the limbs and body, frequent use easily led to users losing control, turning into cyber psychotics.
And without a doubt, Si Anweisitan’s pressure on the body was intense, saying that every use was a form of slow suicide wouldn’t be an overstatent.
This was the prosthetic that could prevent from becoming disabled—Lille thought to himself.
"Hey, what are you doing? Aren’t you getting out?"
V’s voice brought Lille back to his thoughts.
Lille, with a confused face, "Aren’t you crazy? This is your job, not mine."
V grinned wickedly, "No no no—I heard there’s a legend in the East you all take pride in Kantao:
’You might not use Super Style, but when you pass by Kantao, bow three tis,’ aren’t you going to bow?"
After hearing that, Lille’s face was covered with black lines: "Idiot!"
"Wow, I thought you were only good at pretending and throwing around big words, didn’t expect you’d actually curse."
V laughed out loud, examining his pistol, "But I really want to try out that submachine gun Zhu Shen gave you, it’s a pity not to."
That gun was now in Lille’s hands—the Smart Submachine Gun G-58 Classic.
Smart weapons were a very sophisticated matter in this world, only requiring the installation of an intelligent link in the palm compatible with smart weapons, this weapon could automatically read visual and environntal information to lock on enemies, never missing a shot.
The bullets could even turn in mid-air—as long as you had the money, there was no target you couldn’t hit.
However, Lille didn’t trust everything in this world, so he didn’t install the intelligent link prosthetics in his palms, and the smart weaponry’s auto-aim couldn’t be used.
Of course, even so, this was a very high-performance submachine gun.

"All prosthetics installed in Atlanta have issues, especially those like smart links that require complex software drivers.
Plus, didn’t you say you could shoot accurately even with your eyes closed?"
"I wasn’t just talking nonsense."
Checking the ti, the action window was almost upon them, Lille said, "Alright, get into position. I’ll direct from here. Rember, first connect to the surveillance using the controller, then I’ll direct from this side."
"Alright—Let’s get to work."
V got out of the car and headed towards Kantao’s warehouse, quickly blending into the shadows.
Tonight was a clear night with the moon hanging high.
Just as V lded into the shadow by the wall, the billboard played the next advertisent: "Super Style, the first smart weapon for young people."
"Hey, Lille, look this way."
Lille looked in V’s direction, only to see this woman bowing foolishly towards the billboard.
"I bowed for you, no need to thank , even though you don’t use Super Style."
Lille, holding his forehead, flipped V the middle finger.

"Piece of cake, I’ve already tapped into the channel."
Inside the park, a total of thirty caras in five areas transmitted their data to Lille’s brain, the link between brain and machine giving him a peculiar sensation.
The visual signals would transmit to his prosthetic eye as if he was physically present, becoming the cara.
Zhu Shen’s plan was very useful, as long as the rcenary could stealthily infiltrate, getting past those guards was as simple as crossing an empty street in the early morning.
"The signal is good, everything is going as planned. Pass through the corridor ahead in 10 seconds, but don’t enter through the main door, turn right—there’s a ventilation duct."
"That ventilation duct isn’t low."
"Otherwise, why do you think we need the enhanced tendons? Damn, there are still so many employees working overti this late at night.
Let’s adjust the plan, you move along the outside of the building, directly enter the office utilizing the restrooms and the walls.
The drone’s flight path is currently being calculated."
Lille used the cara to scan all the drones loitering outside, collected the data for modeling, transferred it to his handheld computing terminal through the neural interface, and finally obtained a window of opportunity. The data was then displayed on his prosthetic eye.
If Lille’s level of prosthetic integration were higher, the computing process could be conducted directly with a biological computer.
This operation is considered a must for entry-level hackers and is also a basic skill for using prosthetics.

That is to say, mastering this technology on one’s own rewards 20 technology points, whereas using technology points would cost 50 points, so it seems it’s better to study hard on one’s own.
"Arriving at the next destination—these corporate dogs, even the toilets are filled with plants."
"Stop admiring them. In 3 seconds a drone will sweep over. Imdiately follow it—you’ll have to jump virtually glued to it into the floor above. Too much force and you will hit it.
Not close enough and you will leave the drone’s cover area and be detected by another drone—move."
"Damn..."
On the other side, V cursed rudely, while Lille also broke into a sweat.
This operation was far too risky, but it was the only window of opportunity and the only difficulty.
With a newcor, the likelihood of an incident was as high as 90%, but he believed V could do it.
Beyond the fact that it was V, there was another reason. V had the neural implant "Krensky" installed now.
This type of prosthetic would enhance the nervous reaction under extre excitent and tension, achieving an effect similar to Si Anweisitan’s "Ti Stop".
By the window sill, V had no ti to think, just as a lit-up drone swept past outside, she leaped!
The drone moved fast, and she was about to fall off, so she gritted her teeth and activated her enhanced tendons.
The energy stored in the tendons was completely released and expelled a powerful air stream, achieving a double-jump in mid air!
As the drone she was approaching grew closer, V’s head began to heat up, her body tensed to the extre—
Just at that mont, she felt as if ti had slowed down.
V withdrew deeply into her own mind, then stared fixedly at the wall, grabbing onto the window sill the mont her hand could reach it!
Click.
With a soft sound, V disappeared outside the window, and another drone swept over from above, with the drones intersecting in their paths.
"Holy shit! Why didn’t you say earlier how dangerous this was?!"
Lille swung his fist inside the vehicle, then spoke as if unperturbed, "You don’t understand, this is to stimulate your potential. I guess the Krensky kicked in just now."
V ca back to her senses, "Right—right, this thing really is magical... Wait a minute, so you did it on purpose?"
"Continue straight through the ventilation duct, exit in 30 seconds."
"Go to hell."
The rest of the route was almost devoid of any thrilling spots; wherever they went, the people there just left work and were replaced.
The drone patrol network didn’t witness any more dangerous, intersecting patrols.
"Walk a bit further, turn left at the second office—that’s the destination—there’s soone ahead, do you see?"
"I see her, she stopped. Should we take action?"
Lille’s breath grew heavy again.
A woman walked out of the office—could she be the target?
"Zhu Shen, check if this person is Cai Pin. If she is, we can eliminate her here."
"It’s not her—Is she blocking your way? If so, take her out; she’s just an ordinary employee, I don’t know her."
Lille did not speak. In the cara, the woman took a deep breath, then stretched an arm across her waist, a relaxed smile on her face that sowhat dazzled Lille.
She looked just like himself when he could finally go ho after a long day of overti in a previous life.
That is to say, she had a ho to go back to.
"Let her go..." Just as Lille was about to say let her go, the next mont, he changed his mind.
The only part of the plan that couldn’t be verified in advance and had to be inferred based on Zhu Shen’s information was the situation inside the office at that mont.
Even... perhaps this woman had done sothing that would throw the plan off.
"...There’s no one around, tie her up, find out what’s inside—if she has combat prosthetics and shows signs of resistance..."
Lille paused.
"Eliminate her."
