Love and passion, cutting up the wasteland
Chapter 219 Prosthetics
The sudden scream startled everyone.
Especially Huang Jun.
Before he could ask clearly what Lu Meng meant by allowing Huang Jie to pick up the sword again.
What he paid attention to was——
"Brother Lu, you, you..." Huang Jun was stunned, "You didn't take any anesthesia?"
"Yeah." Lu Meng said calmly, "I've fainted. Do you need some anesthetic?"
"I don't have to." Huang Jie gritted his teeth.
After crying out in pain, he forced himself to close his mouth.
Lu Meng glanced at the young man and saw that he was sweating profusely and his face was full of muscle twitches, but his eyes were still clear, and the light shining inside seemed to be about to be pierced by a steel needle.
Lu Meng felt relieved.
This is the effect of "resilience".
The so-called resilience is not only the physical ability to withstand blows, but also the mental perseverance formed after overcoming torture.
In the wasteland, no matter what kind of creature, it is impossible to survive if the body is strong without a strong will to survive.
Just like Lu Meng's own anti-beating training.
Spontaneous growth and evolution of the body is on the one hand, but more importantly, persistence and tolerance of pain day after day.
This is reflected in the fact that in battle, it is less likely to be knocked down by serious injuries, and it can wake up faster, regain consciousness, and fight again after being comatose.
This is one of the reasons why the Skeleton Man's attributes can also be measured by "toughness".
Whoever is better at overclocking, who is more resistant to roughness, and who is less prone to shutting down and crashing has higher toughness.
This Huang Jie surprisingly has some merits in this regard.
It's a pity that it is limited to the spirit.
If it were Lu Meng or Krall's choice, with their physical strength, even if all their limbs were broken, they would not faint due to blood loss.
Even Lu Meng would never give the other party this chance.
"What's the solution?"
Huang Jun reacted and asked eagerly.
"Are you going to connect it?" He pulled something out from his pocket. It was Huang Jie's severed arm, which was covered in dust and bloody.
There was no time to clean the battlefield, so Huang Jun only had time to pick up their collection-level fighting knife.
However, he was lucky enough to bring back his brother's severed arm.
Lu Meng looked at the stump with disgust.
He knew that in the past, there was a relatively mature surgery to replace amputated limbs. If the severed limb is well preserved, all conditions permit, and the nerves and blood vessels are well connected, the possibility of salvaging the limb is very high.
Sometimes even the thing down there can be reconnected.
However, even if such an operation is successful, it will not be able to restore a swordsman to his past strength. Strength and flexibility will be lost, and he will not be able to do even general fine work or heavy physical work.
The key is.
Lu Meng does not know how to perform such surgery.
It has been lost and has become one of the ancient black technologies.
Fortunately, there are still darker technologies left in this world.
Lu Meng helped Huang Jie take care of the wound. Instead of taking the severed limb that Huang Jun handed over, he went to the corner of the room and pulled out a long box.
This is one of the things he entrusted Yue Yu to keep.
He stores other suits in his longhouse.
Lu Meng opened the long box and grabbed a pair of arms.
——Iron-green arms.
"Skeleton Arm." He stroked the mechanism and bearings on it and introduced:
"Legend has it that they were disassembled from the skeletons - but more likely, they were spare limbs produced by ancient workshops for the skeletons."
"We humans can also use it."
Lu Meng picked up one, pointed it at Huang Jie's shoulder, and pressed it directly!
The spikes of the mechanical arm dug into Huang Jie's wound, causing the young man to groan again.
This time, however, there was no bleeding from the wound.
Lines of light blue fluorescence started from Huang Jie's wound and flowed on the surface of the skeleton's arm, like beating blood vessels and nerves, spreading to the livid fingertips.
Click.
Suddenly, the mechanical palms clenched tightly together.
The solid wood table corners were smashed into pieces, with sawdust everywhere.
The movement was the same as that of Huang Jie's intact left hand. At this moment, the young man was enduring severe pain, clasping the edge of the table and clenching his fist unconsciously.
Lu Meng then buckled the belt buckle on Huang Jie's upper arm, so that it was fixed.
"This..." Yue Yu on the side was dumbfounded.
Boss Yue thought that what this church member asked him to keep was some kind of trophy. After all, in the traditional Auckland Holy Church, this skeleton man was a pure minion of Narco and the embodiment of darkness.
It turns out this thing is used on people?
Yue Yu knew that his sect was probably some kind of heresy, but after witnessing the combination of steel and flesh moving together, he also understood why the people of the Holy Nation regarded these machines as darkness.
This is simply a desecration of the human body.
Lu Meng could only say that they did not understand the beauty of mechanical ascension.
A beauty of intensity.
[Item name: Skeleton Arm (right)
Level: High (green)
Attributes:
Skill -16%, lock picking -16%, swimming -16%;
Speed +9%, martial arts damage +10%;
Introduction: A common robotic arm that may have existed for thousands of years. 】
Although it interferes with extremely delicate tasks such as "Exquisite Hand" and "Lock Picking", a broken arm will reduce the effect of these skills. Installing a prosthetic limb can also offset these serious reductions.
The bonus of martial arts damage is easy to understand.
A fleshy palm is always inferior to an iron palm.
From this, it seems that the most suitable person in the world to practice martial arts is not human beings, but skeleton people.
As for the speed bonus, it is very suitable for a swordsman like Huang Jie who relies on fast knives.
——These sets of mechanical prostheses were bought by Lu Meng from a technology hunter after returning to the city, but this time he went to the relay station where Te Yi was.
The technology hunter who had escorted them to Scone Town was also very happy to see Lu Meng again.
However, just like the Skeleton Man itself, high-grade mechanical prostheses are also non-renewable products. Technology hunters can only equip some by having contact with the Skeleton Man craftsmen in the Black Desert.
Logically speaking, even with Te Yi's recommendation, Lu Meng was not qualified to buy these things from them.
However, Lu Meng had another recommendation from another person.
——The old shop owner of the machine shop.
During the chat, secrets were randomly thrown out from the mouth of the white-haired guest, covering everything from the scenery of the mainland to the secrets of history, and everything seemed to have been seen by the other party with his own eyes.
What a legendary drifter.
This little old man seems to have returned to the time when he first became a technology hunter and was surprised and novel about everything.
And he originally thought that he had understood everything there was to know, and then he was just waiting to die.
The old shop owner was very sorry to hear that Lu Meng was not a technology hunter.
When he was young, he had many friends. If those people were not dead yet, they could talk to him everywhere.
For this reason, it is a simple thing to write a letter and make it convenient for others.
Rather, it is an honor.
——It would be better if he could be tricked into becoming a technology hunter.
Seeing Lu Meng take out this recommendation letter, even Te Yi was frightened.
But this is all other gossip. The end result is that Lu Meng brought back several sets of mechanical prostheses.
——This was originally reserved for himself.
After all, no one can guarantee that in such an environment, they will not lose their arms or legs.
If you are not prepared at that time, you will have no choice but to be like the Krall's Choice who just died. Even if your madness strength greatly increases and you are cut into a human stick, you will have no choice but to be slaughtered by others.
"Brother Lu, this..." Looking at his younger brother's 'newbie', Huang Jun felt like he was in a dream.
This mechanical prosthetic limb is not inferior to the original right hand in terms of flexibility and strength.
Not only can he use it freely now, but after Huang Jie recovers from his injury, he may even use it to become more advanced in martial arts!
If Huang Jie's hand had been a mechanical arm like this at that time, it would never have been cut off with a single knife.
Such technology must be valuable.
And Lu Beiyou actually...
"Wait a minute." Lu Meng interrupted him, "Sheng Hui will give you 20,000 coins."
This set of skeletal arms is not the best, and is only reserved as a spare, but the quality is still very high - if the quality is lower, the attributes of the blessing will not be worth the part it deducts.
Adding in other packages, the cost is not small.
If you use one now, you have to pay a higher price to get the blood back.
Huang Jun: "...can it be removed?"
Lu Meng: "It can't be dismantled."
——At least we have to wait until the injury heals.
