Please call me Cyber ​​Demon King

"Bang bang bang!"

Gunshots echoed in the room. Jack lunged at the thug who had given the orders, slamming his fist, as big as a casserole dish, into the guy's face and pinning him to the ground.

Someone tried to come up to help, but Jack punched them in the face again, sending them flying and crashing into the wall.

"Don't fucking move!"

Jack Wells picked up the leader, who was already dazed and confused from being beaten, and roared, silencing the room.

"Five."

V snapped her fingers, and in the blink of an eye, she had killed five thugs, all with a single, decisive headshot.

Jack was able to subdue the leader so easily thanks in large part to her; she killed all the guys who were blocking their way.

"Let go of our boss!"

The thugs' shouts were already somewhat intimidating. In just one exchange, so many of them were fighting against two people, but they ended up killing several of them, and their leader was captured.

"Where's the money?"

Grabbing the gang leader by the neck, Jack Wells asked bluntly, "Since we're already here, we can't leave empty-handed."

"boom!"

A gunshot rang out, and the gang leader was shot dead by one of his own men. This left Jack a little confused. Was this turn of events a bit off?

"Kill them! We'll split the loot and money!"

Someone shouted, but before the words were even finished, a bullet took his life; V swiftly and cleanly finished him off.

"Bang bang bang!"

Gunshots rang out again in the room. Jack used the thug leader's body as a shield, holding it up with one hand and drawing his gun with the other to fire.

V was even more decisive. She ran through the hail of bullets, while Ajax relentlessly spat fire, reaping lives. The street girl's face was full of excitement. The breathing chip enhanced her athleticism, her subcutaneous armor helped her withstand bullets, and the shooting compensation device and ballistic assist device ensured the accuracy of her shots.

She had spent all her savings to buy herself a set of prosthetics. Although they weren't the most advanced, they were enough for her to completely overpower these thugs. V-Shock was beginning to show its power.

"These bastards want to devour us too, how interesting."

The battle ended quickly, and V began cleaning up the battlefield, maintaining her good habit of cleaning up after battles.

"He got too addicted to drugs."

Jack shook his head and began searching the room for anything of value. To his surprise, he discovered that there were quite a few freezers in the inner room, filled with meat, but the selection was rather limited, consisting only of chicken, snake meat, rat meat, and the like.

"Is this a butcher who colludes with the homeless people outside the city?"

Upon seeing these things, Jack realized that he had met someone in the same line of work.

"What's wrong with the old captain?"

V rolled her eyes. They even take orders from their peers? But then she thought again, wasn't it she who said she wouldn't accept any orders?

"Haha! I think it would be nice to have more of these silly sculptors. We'd be the ones getting all the money from selling them!"

Jack laughed and pulled out a bag of money. These butchers were obviously doing offline transactions, so they got a good deal this time.

"Damn! Double-crossing is definitely the fastest way to make money!"

The two opened the bag and immediately exclaimed in surprise.

"We've struck it rich! Ke Ling! We've struck it rich!"

Looking at the message V sent, Ke Ling was a little confused. What did V send? He knew that the shop's business had been pretty good these past two days, but it shouldn't be this exaggerated, right?

He ignored V and turned his attention back to what was in front of him: a group of Sixth Street gang members were besieging and killing members of the Demon Gang. Outnumbered and caught off guard, the Demon Gang members were being beaten and were fleeing in terror.

This is the advantage that comes from having control over intelligence. The Demon Gang members were powerless to fight back and were quickly wiped out by the Sixth Street Gang.

After the Sixth Street Gang members quickly withdrew, Ke Ling arrived at the battlefield. He released his tail kagune, which danced wildly as he injected Rc cells into a corpse.

"Buzz!"

Under the influence of the Rc cells, the corpse began to move. The severed head and body reconnected, and the previously lost vital signs began to gradually recover. However, the person did not wake up, and Ke Ling did not inject him with Rc cell inhibitors.

Ke Ling took the "resurrected" corpse with him and returned to Old Wei's secret base. Of course, this place has now become his private operating room. Old Wei is still very happy to be able to help the people of Santo Domingo.

After placing the "corpse" on the operating table, Ke Ling began the surgery, a herba transplant, but he did not conduct any adaptability tests.

"really."

After the transplant, this "resurrected" body was clearly not a lucky one. Its compatibility with Rc cells was very low, and the surgery failed. However, this was within Ke Ling's prediction.

"Buzz!"

Ke Ling released the tail kagune and began to manipulate the mutating body, attempting to create a kagune monster.

Under Ke Ling's manipulation, the kagune that was about to go berserk calmed down inside the "corpse." This kagune will replace the body's brain and become the source that controls the body.

Soon, the modification was successfully completed, and the corpse on the operating table was completely unrecognizable, twisted as if it had been pieced together.

"Well, it's my first time, so I'm still a bit rusty."

Ke Ling felt a little embarrassed. It was indeed his fault for not operating it properly. In theory, maintaining a normal human form should have been fine, but this wouldn't affect its use.

With a thought, Ke Ling made the kagune monster move under his control. This thing was not a living thing, but more like a puppet, or a distorted mass of Rc cells.

Since it's not a living thing...

Ke Ling narrowed his eyes. Now was the moment to verify his conjecture. Could his Blood Demon Art and his shadow store this kagune monster?

Chapter 137 Flesh Puppet

Ke Ling manipulated the kagune monster, attempting to place it into the shadow dimension, but unsurprisingly, it failed. The kagune monster created using a tail kagune was not accepted by the shadow dimension. -Manwuwuman-

Ordinary kagune and kagune can be put in without any problems, and can still be used as before. This kagune monster is actually just a kagune plus a mutated kagune, so there must be a reason why it can't be put in.

"Let's try modifying it."

Ke Ling was not discouraged. He had the kagune monster lie back on the operating table, then took out a lot of quinqueron and began to modify the kagune monster. He had some guesses about what was going on.

For this modification, Ke Ling used the method of creating quinques. He tried to completely transform this kagune monster into a quinque, completely removing the activity from the kagune monster.

After its vitality is completely removed, this kagune monster will become like an ordinary quinque, no longer possessing any plasticity, and becoming a true flesh and blood puppet.

According to Ke Ling's speculation, the Kagune monster probably has some mystical aspects to it. For example, Takatsuki Sen, who was being controlled, was able to have a brief moment of lucidity before her death, and Noroi also briefly regained consciousness before being completely destroyed.

The original owner's consciousness still resides within it, and it can even briefly regain consciousness. It's indeed difficult to say that this thing is purely inanimate.

This thing is considered an inanimate object, but it's not entirely inanimate. It's a bug, but the Shadow Space obviously doesn't recognize this state.

Once the activity is completely removed and it becomes a product with properties similar to quinque, it should be acceptable.

Although these were all Ke Ling's own guesses, the purpose of the experiment was to verify the guesses. If the verification failed in the end, the Herpes simplex could be removed and an injection of Rc cell inhibitor could be given to eliminate the thing without leaving any trace. Ke Ling still kept one or two tubes of Rc cell inhibitor for emergency use.

The technology for manufacturing quinques was naturally obtained from Kanou Akihiro. Although Kanou Akihiro majored in medicine and used to work as an anatomist, he had not studied quinques in depth.

However, Akihiro Kanou is very interested in any research related to "resurrection," and the "standing humanoid quinque" is one of them.

The "standing humanoid quinque" was a scrapped project. Related research was conducted in Germany, where Akihiro Kano came into contact with it.

These "standing humanoid quinques" are made from ghoul corpses and are controlled using the principles of "kabana control" and "remote control structure." The final product is "corpse manipulation," which allows dead ghouls to fight as if they were alive, and even speak and communicate, which is quite amazing.

The two SS-class ghouls, Koma Enji and Irimi Kaname, from the "Anteiku Cafe," were transformed into "standing humanoid quinques" after their deaths. Kanou Akihiro's research on "resurrection" brought this originally scrapped plan to fruition.

Of course, Kanou Akihiro's research is still in its early stages and he certainly hasn't achieved such results yet. What Ke Ling is doing now can only be described as a bankrupt version of the "standing humanoid quinque".

Ke Ling didn't expect to be able to create a complete version of the "standing humanoid quinque." He knew he didn't have the research capabilities yet and couldn't figure it out for the time being, so he could only hope that Kanou Akihiro would continue to work hard.

But that didn't stop Ke Ling from experimenting on the kagune monster. Anyway, the thing couldn't die, so it was perfect for him to practice on.

"Hiss~ No, let's start over."

"Ugh~ That's not right again, let's try it again!"

"Come again!"

Ke Ling tried to modify it again and again. He didn't have much hands-on experience, but that was the meaning of this kagune monster's existence. Some things you'll never learn if you don't practice them. You have to try things out first to understand them.

After a busy day and countless failures, Ke Ling finally succeeded. He removed the activity from the kagune monster and created it into a quinque-like being.

The final result is obviously far inferior to the "standing humanoid quinque" and there is no comparison. However, as a quinque puppet, this thing is perfectly qualified, combining the advantages of quinque steel and Rc cells.

"I'll call you Flesh and Blood Puppet."

Looking at his experimental results, Ke Ling was quite pleased and gave it a name, after all, it was something he had personally created.

If it were a fully-formed "standing humanoid quinque," this ability could be directly named "Edo Tensei" (Impure World Reincarnation).

Ke Ling's current level of achievement is largely thanks to "Nicky the Transvestite's" tail kagune. If it weren't for the fact that this tail kagune could create kagune monsters, Ke Ling wouldn't even be able to understand this "flesh puppet."

Ke Ling manipulated the "flesh puppet" into the shadow space, and succeeded easily. The flesh puppet, which had been completely transformed into a quinque, no longer possessed any ability to bring people back to life. The flesh puppet had completely severed its connection with the original owner of this body.

"If we manufacture more of these, wouldn't we be able to directly operate hundreds of machines? Would I become the swarm? A one-man army?"

Ke Ling took out the "flesh puppet" and got used to controlling it. Actually, this thing really tested one's mental strength.

This flesh and blood puppet is like an external avatar, moving with one's will, so naturally, one has to devote some attention to controlling it.

"Is it possible to manipulate it using something like skill chips?"

Sitting in his chair, Ke Ling manipulated the flesh and blood puppet that looked like an ancient god descending to earth, while thinking about whether there was a way to be lazy. If he could directly use skill chips to control these flesh and blood puppets, it would be much easier for him.

"Ding Ding Ding!"

As Ke Ling was thinking, a call came in; it was V's profile picture and number.

"Ke Ling, what are you doing?! You're not replying to my messages!"

Ke Ling answered the phone, and V immediately raised a question on the other end, suspecting that Ke Ling was going out to cause trouble behind their backs again.

"I'm in the operating room, doing research. What's wrong?"

Ke Ling cleaned himself up, put the flesh puppet into his shadow space, and answered V's questions as he went out.

"Didn't I send you a message? Jack and I found some money!"

V spoke, still sounding somewhat excited, talking non-stop. Ke Ling slowly understood: these two had raided a chicken coop and then taken all the money they made from selling it.

"how much is it?"

Ke Ling was a little puzzled. Seeing how excited V was, how much had he picked up?
