119: Chapter 39: New Skill Unlocked 119: Chapter 39: New Skill Unlocked Martial arts originally triggered from Recycling Station Town and proceeded northeast to reach the base of Organization Z, then headed north, consecutively destroying the Excavator Group and Wild Myth, two Great Stockade of Green Forest.
Pine Eagle City, on the other hand, was located a bit further south of Recycling Station Town.
Originally, Redstone Gate was destroyed within Pine Eagle City by a team led by the Lord, and Huang Ouguang also fled northward from there with his elder martial brother, heading toward the direction he was familiar with.
According to her, if they could make it back within the Arctic Circle, there might be a chance to find so remaining forces and obtain supplies.
But obviously, she couldn’t go far before she could no longer carry on.
Now, Xiang Shan was heading back in a slightly southeast direction.
This route would take him to another Great Stockade of Green Forest located east of Pine Eagle City and Organization Z, eliminate the Green Forest there, recuperate for a while, and then proceed to Pine Eagle City.
It was also an opportunity to upgrade himself and resolve the issues regarding his disciple and the little girl.
The process wasn’t too complicated.
This Great Stockade called “Arrogant Dragon” was weaker than Organization Z, Excavator Group.
The only difficulty was infiltrating without alerting anyone.
Capturing a lackey and putting on a disguise would suffice.
Although Xiang Shan’s cyberized height was already significantly different from those with lower transformation rates, the caras at the doorway were still monitored by human personnel.
If he revved the motorcycle to its top speed and dashed through the corridor, then the fleeting image might not be enough for those observers to detect any anomaly.
The entire process wasn’t particularly difficult, largely replicating what he had done with Organization Z.
Except the people here were rather unskilled.
A few hours later, Huang Ouguang and her recently awakened senior martial brother, baffled, walked into this Great Stockade of Green Forest.
“This… is so easy…”
“It wasn’t supposed to be very difficult,” Cui Hai said with a wry smile.
“Many seniors in our sect could do it.
It’s just that initially you chose a target that you shouldn’t have…”
Despite his words, Cui Hai was still sowhat astonished.
Although a few elite mbers of Redstone Gate could also singularly destroy a Great Stockade of Green Forest, it was by no ans “completely without danger.”
After all, humanity’s technological tree is always in a state of excessive offensive capability.
Even an expert could perish if caught off guard and barraged with firepower by ordinary troops.
Not every hero dares to attack a Green Forest Stronghold unpreparedly.
But this mysterious and cryptic senior not only dared, he seed to think that storming into a Green Forest Stronghold was as natural as opening a storage box.
The reason he destroyed this Green Forest was probably just to “find a good place to rest.”
And according to the general logic of Jianghu, hiding in one’s own vehicle would have been sufficient under such circumstances.
“We might stop here for about four or five days,” Xiang Shan said.
“During this period, Young Hero Cui, you can assemble a prosthetic body for yourself and get used to it.
The parts here are all usable.”
Huang Ouguang asked curiously, “Four or five days, that long?”
“I need so ti to assemble a surgical instrunt,” Xiang Shan said.
Although there was a surgical table in this Great Stockade to transform common people into Green Forest lackeys, it was far too rudintary.
Even for a Benchmark Man whose damage resistance far exceeded that of Earth’s native species, there was still a few percent chance of mortality.
The surgical instrunt from Demon Sect technology in the Organization Z, the specifications weren’t too demanding.
Xiang Shan had already printed many needed parts along the way.
And the mories of “Chen Feng” also helped him retrieve his own surgical techniques.
Yes, surgery.
Although “a scholar in the field of computing performing surgery” is indeed a startling fact, it is true.
The Magwen Brain Science Institute, where “Chen Feng” belonged to, had established quite good clinical research cooperation with Military Headquarters, Changgeng, Temple of Heaven, Xuanwu, and several other famous hospitals of the Republic.
In the later stages of cybernetic transformation technology developnt, Xiang Shan used this connection to connect with clinical scholars in neurosurgery, recruiting several promising young experts.
During their collaboration, these experts left behind data, which later beca part of Xiang Shan’s technical reserves.
He even seed to possess a dical license.
Although he had mories of many physicians from the Green Forest Stronghold, including the Little Poison Insect,
in truth, it was only after retrieving these mories that he realized how inadequate those physicians were.
They represented the lower limit of dicine.
The upper limit of dicine continues to evolve with each generation, but the lower limit remains unchanged.
In so backward areas, the dical thods are not even better than the herbs a monkey would pick when feeling unwell—it could be said that the lower limit of dicine hasn’t changed for millions of years.
The dical standards of most “doctors” in this era are benchmarked against past “redies.” You could say they have so effect, but the negative side effects are just too obvious.
And the Demon Sect, perhaps not the pinnacle of dicine in this era, had certainly surpassed the lower limits.
What Xiang Shan needed to do was to utilize the technology of the Demon Sect to create the best surgical environnt and then apply techniques that were at least above the “lower limits.”
And the surgery robot was not a one-off deal.
Xiang Shan now had so space to put the surgery robot inside the “Mule.”
In the future, replacing a spine, cleaning the cerebral cortex, and so on would be much easier.
“I might be focusing on work these next few days,” Xiang Shan emphasized.
“I’ve read through the mories of Green Forest here.
The nad experts have already been caught in one fell swoop, but there might still be so lackeys returning.
If such enemies really appear, I would trouble the two of you to fend them off properly.”
Huang Ouguang nodded.
Afterward, Xiang Shan assigned tasks to Yuki, mainly involving exercises related to Inner Strength, an introductory-level niche object-oriented language, and “rebuilding another vehicle.”
This was considered relatively simple howork.
The forr was still about laying the foundation for Inner Strength.
As long as the fundantal concepts of mathematics were clarified and he mastered mathematics well, the cultivation of Inner Strength would be much more effective.
It should be said that “linguistics,” “pure mathematics,” and “computer applications” are all fields that can serve as the foundation of Inner Strength.
Mastering any of these fields would allow one to cultivate Inner Strength better than others.
After giving a few instructions, Xiang Shan imrsed himself in assembling the surgery robot.
Cui Hai did not receive his body and stand up until the next day.
At that ti, Yuki was welding the chassis of a new vehicle.
During this period, two lackeys did return.
Cui Hai had Huang Ouguang deal with them, as a form of training.
Cui Hai fought two rounds at the martial arts field to test the functions of his new prosthetic body compared to his biological body.
Previously, he had been injured in the spine due to strikes from space-based weapons.
Although Xiang Shan had agreed to provide him with a portion of Reverse ssenger Soaking Agent, the spinal bridging surgery still had to wait until Xiang Shan had finished building the surgery robot.
And his new prosthetic body still needed so tuning to harmonize with his Martial Arts Algorithm and biological brain.
Having fought two rounds, Cui Hai noticed Yuki staring at him.
“Young Apprentice Yuki,” Cui Hai greeted warmly.
“Are you also cultivating?”
Yuki sighed and continued welding a steel pipe.
“I don’t think this counts as cultivation… Big Brother Cui, what you do seems more like it.
I wonder when Master will teach real Martial Arts.”
“What you’re doing is real Martial Arts,” Cui Hai smiled and said.
“To know how to strike with external strength, you must first understand the structure and function of machinery.
This is practice.
Also, crafting an automated vehicle to carry resources is an essential skill for a hero.”
Yuki nodded slightly.
“I guess so.
But thinking about all the evil in the world, and how powerless I still am…sigh.”
“These things can’t be rushed,” Cui Hai shook his head.
“I’ve been through such a phase too.
And do you know?
Since I was injured, my strength has diminished a lot.
I’m actually kind of anxious.”
“Ah?
Your strength has dropped a lot?” Yuki was shocked.
“I saw how powerful your punches were just now.”
“The sensation of power cos from the performance of the prosthetic body,” Cui Hai said with a wry smile.
“The real focus of external strength lies in controlling the prosthetic body and the strategies exhibited between offense and defense.
Without actual combat, outsiders can hardly tell the level of my Martial Arts.”
Yuki nodded thoughtfully.
“There seems to be so spare electronic equipnt here.
I asked the seniors earlier; I can use those to cultivate Inner Strength,” said Cui Hai.
“Would you like to give it a try?”
Yuki asked, “Eh!
I can too?”
“You should now be able to use high-level languages for direct programming,” Cui Hai said.
“I saw you scribbling on the ground yesterday—I didn’t intend to pry into your legacy.
The senior has already taught you all the basics needed.
First learn programming the way commoners do, then repeat it all instinctively.
This could be considered the foundation of Inner Strength.”
“I know how to, but I just haven’t had the chance to try on my own,” Yuki’s eyes lit up.
“So there’s this training thod…”
“Yes.
HTML ditation is a further step based on such training,” Cui Hai emphasized.
“However, you must also pay attention to completing the cultivation tasks set by the senior.
Ultimately, you need a master to truly guide you.”
Yuki nodded.
“If Master cos out, I’ll ask him to give it a try…”
“Why ask about this?
Just go ahead and do it,” Xiang Shan’s voice suddenly ca from a nearby speaker.
“Also, Cui Hai, I’ve prepared the surgical device.
You can get the Reverse ssenger Soaking Agent ready.
Yuki, bring the little guy to later.”
