From Mortal Body to Immortality

The young man was named Tang Shun. He used to be a somewhat wealthy second-generation heir with a pretty good family situation.

However, his family later declined, leading Tang Shun, who had embarked on the path of mechanical modification, to lack sufficient financial support, causing him to stagnate.

But Tang Shun was an extremely stubborn fellow. He couldn't accept that his strength could only remain at the first level, so he took to fighting in the black market.

He wanted to rely on this source of income to continue improving his strength.

But it was precisely because of this that Tang Shun's modified mechanical legs were often damaged. Over time, he became a regular customer of Li Mo.

Looking at Tang Shun's mechanical legs, Li Mo lit a cigarette, taking puffs one after another, but remained silent.

"How is it? Can you still fix it?"

Tang Shun also lit a cigarette, enduring the pain in his body, and looked at Li Mo.

Li Mo was silent for a long time before saying, "I'm old. My life energy has begun to decline. I told you last time that it would be the last time I repaired it for you, but you obviously didn't listen to me."

Repairing mechanical prosthetics is not an easy task. Don't think that the volume of mechanical prosthetics is not as large as those of heavy mechanical equipment, but in fact, due to the different materials used, the quality is also different for the same volume.

In addition, the parts of mechanical prosthetics are extremely precise, making repairs very mentally exhausting. Li Mo is old and doesn't have that much energy to expend.

Tang Shun frowned slightly, and his eyes showed a trace of pleading as he looked at Li Mo: "Uncle Li, I beg you, I've already achieved a nine-win streak at the black market. I'll be able to achieve a ten-win streak soon. Just one last time, this is really the last time."

"After achieving a ten-win streak, the money rewarded by the black market will be enough for me to advance to the second level. Then I won't go to this kind of place anymore."

"Just help me repair it this last time, and I won't bother you again in the future."

Tang Shun's words also made Li Mo's expression a little irritable, but he didn't immediately agree to Tang Shun's request.

"Well... how about I give it a try?"

Just as the two fell into silence, smoking their cigarettes one after another without saying a word, a voice sounded beside them.

Li Mo looked over and found Lu Sheng standing behind him with a shy smile.

"You?"

Tang Shun looked at Lu Sheng, his brows furrowed, and his face showed some impatience.

"What are you, a mere apprentice, making trouble here for? Didn't you see that I was talking to your master?"

Obviously, Tang Shun regarded Lu Sheng as an apprentice in the workshop. In Tang Shun's view, none of the apprentices in this workshop were even a tenth as good as Li Mo.

Naturally, he regarded Lu Sheng's words as troublemaking.

Lu Sheng didn't respond to Tang Shun, but looked at Li Mo with bright eyes. He had just converted the skill into basic mechanical prosthetic repair. If he could do it himself, he should be able to increase a lot of proficiency.

Li Mo was silent for a moment, until he finished smoking the cigarette in his hand, stomped it hard on the ground, and said, "How much have you understood from the previous book?"

Lu Sheng smiled shyly: "Almost there."

This time, perhaps having seen Lu Sheng's terrifying talent, Li Mo didn't doubt it, but made up his mind in his heart.

"Since that's the case... you can try it. I, the old man, will assist you from the side!"

After speaking, Li Mo looked at Tang Shun and said in a deep voice: "I can help you repair it this last time, but you need him to do it. I'll only be responsible for guiding from the side. If you're okay with it, lie down. If not, forget it."

Tang Shun didn't expect Li Mo to have so much confidence in this guy who seemed to be an apprentice. He pondered for a moment, and then his expression hardened.

"Uncle Li, I believe in you. You've already spoken, so naturally I have nothing to refuse. Let's do it!"

Tang Shun was also a ruthless person. Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone to the black market to fight.

With that said, Tang Shun followed Li Mo to his office, lay down on the repair bed, and closed his eyes.

Behind him, Lu Sheng looked at Tang Shun's pair of dilapidated mechanical legs, his eyes shining, just like a hunter seeing a precious prey.

"This is a rare training opportunity!"

Lu Sheng rubbed his hands, secretly excited in his heart.

"Let's begin. You operate first, and I'll observe from the side. I'll point out any mistakes."

Li Mo said to Lu Sheng.

"Okay!"

Lu Sheng came to the repair bed, put on a convenient magnifying glass, and began to carefully observe the damaged parts inside the mechanical leg.

Mechanical prosthetics have always been known for their precision, and repairing those high-precision parts also requires a lot of mental energy. This is also the reason why Li Mo didn't want to repair them.

He was old and didn't have that much energy. Every time he repaired them, Li Mo had to rest for ten days to half a month to recover.

"Not bad. You can find all the damaged parts. You can be considered to have entered the door of mechanical prosthetic repair."

Li Mo's face was full of satisfaction.

Lu Sheng didn't get complacent, but carefully took out these damaged parts, placed them on the bed, and used existing tools to repair them.

Tapping, drilling, precision turning... the processes proceeded in an orderly manner.

Among them, Lu Sheng also made many mistakes, but before they caused immeasurable consequences, they were pointed out by Li Mo and resolved.

Three hours passed quickly. Lu Sheng, covered in sweat, reinstalled the repaired parts into the mechanical leg.

After doing all this, Lu Sheng wiped the sweat from his forehead and said to Tang Shun, who was lying on the repair bed.

"Get up and try it out. Is there anything uncomfortable?"

Tang Shun opened his eyes and glanced at Lu Sheng with some surprise. He hadn't fallen asleep during these three hours. After all, letting an "apprentice" repair it, even he, a ruthless person, didn't dare to be completely at ease.

However, listening to Li Mo's constant sounds of satisfaction, Tang Shun also realized that he seemed to have underestimated this guy.

Without hesitation, Tang Shun stood up, stretched his body simply, and tested the strength and speed of the mechanical leg, before smiling at Lu Sheng and Li Mo with satisfaction.

"Not bad, not bad, it's completely repaired. Uncle Li, your closed-door disciple is not simple. I'm afraid he will be able to inherit your mantle in the future!"

Obviously, after this repair, Tang Shun had regarded Lu Sheng as Li Mo's closed-door disciple. After all, given Li Mo's age, Lu Sheng was really the kind of closed-door disciple.
