"Get used to it a bit more, and you can leave once everything's fine."
That gentle and flat voice seed like feathers sunlit, lightly brushing past the listener's ear, helping the Adventurer, still a bit dazed from the lingering anesthesia, slowly co to consciousness.
"Although I would really love to let you rest a little longer, but... you know, the city's curfew is just about to begin."
The lady doctor showed a sowhat apologetic smile, her tone carrying a hint of helplessness, "If you miss the ti, you'll likely have to spend the night here."
Facing that gentle smile, the Adventurer lying on the operating table also grinned with a sowhat silly smile.
"I don't mind..."
"But I'm off work." The lady doctor chuckled lightly.
"Do you plan to stay here alone, sleeping on the cold operating table?"
"Uh, I see..." The Adventurer instantly deflated, visibly disappointed, mumbling as he turned over and got off the table.
"Be careful on your way back." The lady doctor softly instructed, "You've just replaced your Prosthetic Body, and your Perception hasn't fully adapted to the changes in the Acceleration module, which has led to quite a few traffic accidents."
"No worries, I already adapted with Acceleration Magic before coming for the surgery!"
The Adventurer replied with a smile, bouncing lightly twice on the spot, feeling the surge of Strength through his body after the anesthesia wore off, expressing an excited expression on his face.
"Watch this!"
The next second, a spark of electricity flashed in his eyes, and in his Perception, the entire world suddenly slowed down.
"With this, there's no need to fear those rebellious Intelligent chanisms—though Doctor, you probably can't hear clearly."
The Adventurer chuckled, moving at a normal pace in his Perception, but to the outside world it seed like a Flashing speed, in the blink of an eye, he was behind the lady doctor.
Yet, as he intended to tease her a little, he saw that in the slowed-down world, the lady doctor calmly turned around at the sa speed, looking at him with amusent.
"Doctor, you don't have a Prosthetic Body?" The Adventurer asked, wide-eyed.
"Who do you think enchanted your Prosthetic Body? Acceleration Magic is my specialty."
Seeing the Adventurer's expression freeze, she shook her head helplessly.
"That's why I told you, be mindful of safety. Don't think you're invincible just because you got a new Prosthetic Body. After all, the Prosthetic Body is essentially just an Arcane Apparatus, a powerful Professional can reach an even stronger level without a Prosthetic Body."
"Those you talk about are all Legendary Strongn..." The Adventurer muttered quietly, showing so reluctance.
"You ought to listen well to the doctor's words." As the flow of Perception returned to normal, the lady doctor gently tapped his forehead with her fingertip, her tone soft yet commanding.
"If you don't follow the doctor's advice, you're the one who's going to pay the price.
"Moreover..." The lady doctor's voice lowered slightly, carrying a faint sigh, "Quite a few young people like you never ca back after having surgery here..."
In that mont, her gaze dimd briefly but quickly returned to a warm smile.
"I certainly don't want to lose another regular visitor."
Hearing this slightly concerned remark, the Adventurer's cheeks flushed a bit, and he nodded vigorously.
"Since the doctor said so... I'll definitely be careful!"
"Then hurry back."
Waving with a smile as she watched the Adventurer, who turned back every few steps, leaving, the lady doctor's smile gradually faded.
"...Even such a reckless fellow has started preparing for war; the situation is becoming increasingly difficult." She sighed softly.
Nowadays, even babies still in swaddling clothes can vaguely sense the deteriorating atmosphere in Alien Machinery City.
Unprecedented strict curfews, increasingly tightened food rations, and the growing number of Prosthetic Body Surgery applications...
A full-scale war between Humankind and Intelligent chanisms is about to erupt.
In such worsening circumstances, perhaps only the profession of Prosthetic Doctor could turn prosperity from misfortune.
So even optimistically believe that even if the Intelligent chanism Queen wins the war, Prosthetic Doctors will not be left without options, able to use their skills to earn a living.
After all, even the Magic-guided Intelligent chanisms also need maintenance and repair, and just as humans do not cure themselves, Intelligent chanisms often lack the ability to self-repair.
Thus, even though it is not a Combat profession, the status of Prosthetic Doctors in Alien Machinery City remains high.
After completing the First Transformation, apprentices often undergo nearly ten years of rigorous study and training before they can succeed in the Second Transformation, becoming capable Prosthetic Doctors.
Physiology, Magic Engineering, Enchantnt Craftsmanship... these challenging and complex subjects require day and night learning to master.
Unlike the rapid ascent of Magicians or the rocket-like rise of Heroes, this gradual accumulation is often the path for normal Professionals.
After the Second Transformation, even if Professionals dedicate their entire lives, they may not necessarily enter the Legendary realm.
Every Prosthetic Doctor is a valuable asset to Alien Machinery City.
