Cyber God: Abyss Walker
Chapter 21 Bone and Blood Magazine, Ready for Use
The only person Wang Yu could think of who would step in to help him at this moment was Zero Seven. How could the other party so precisely control the Polaris electromagnetic shield to launch a counterattack from such a distance...?
However, he didn't have much time to think about things related to Lingqi. The fishmen were still approaching, and the parasite in his brain had begun to stir. Its greedy devouring desire almost made Wang Yu squat down to devour the corpse of the guy whose head he had blown off.
"Sizzle sizzle..."
The parasite's telekinetic energy operated on its own, extracting the necessary components from the sticky, indistinguishable residue on the ground.
Wang Yu blasted the opponent's head, along with the parasites inside, and all that remained was a pool of blood and brain matter mixed together on the ground. The things the parasites needed to grow were also inside.
Some thick, white liquid was separated from it by the parasite's telekinesis. This precise control was far superior to what Wang Yu used, since telekinesis actually belonged to the parasite, and Wang Yu had only acquired the ability to use it through a symbiotic relationship.
The liquid entered Wang Yu's nasal cavity, and he didn't feel much. He could clearly sense the parasite's elation. After receiving the liquid, the parasite quieted down and went into hibernation, no longer affecting Wang Yu's thoughts and actions, probably silently digesting it.
"The Nightblade Kinetic Pistol, a decent weapon. It should be enough to cover the cost of that one armor-piercing round, and this guy's body..."
Wang Yu clutched his left rib, which had been pierced by a bullet. The large gash from the bullet hadn't damaged any vital internal organs. With his physical condition, he could recover in a few days without affecting his ability to move around freely. Right now, he needed to clean the corpse before the group of fishmen got close.
After seizing the opponent's firearms and throwing the badges that also represented the members of the Tide Gang into the sea, Wang Yu noticed the changes in the body. At this moment, the corpse was trembling and wriggling slightly, and the teeth that had grown on the surface of the body were slowly moving on the skin, all moving in the same direction.
"These things trying to climb on me? Get lost."
Wang Yu frowned and used his pistol to knock open the other man's corpse. These teeth were the abilities this guy had gained during the ritual, including the protective layer formed on his body and the tooth bullet that pierced Wang Yu's left arm. After the other man died, the tooth also lost its effect and no longer made Wang Yu's left arm immobile.
He didn't want to get involved with these unknown things; who knew what the consequences would be? After the corpse was knocked open, it suddenly began to shrink inward, and the flesh and blood disappeared rapidly. Under Wang Yu's slightly surprised gaze, it formed something with bones and teeth as the main body and flesh and blood as the adhesive.
"This is... a magazine? Why did his body turn into this after he died?"
After examining it closely, Wang Yu discovered that the object, made of flesh and bone, resembled a gun magazine. One side of it displayed rows of "bullets," which were identical to the tooth bullets that had just been fired into Wang Yu's left arm.
"Quack quack!"
Hearing the fishman's howl that he had been discovered not far away, Wang Yu didn't have time to think any further. He grabbed the magazine through his gloves and ran quickly toward the building where he lived.
"Bang!"
The metal door was closed tightly, isolating the fishmen outside and those inside the building. Wang Yu, clutching his still bleeding left rib, sat on the steps in front of the Old Fish Head Restaurant.
"Hey kid, what's wrong with you? You suddenly rushed out and started fighting with someone, and how did these mermen suddenly appear? And the item you took from me was the goods I was just about to deliver..."
The side door of the old fish head shop opened, and the other person's fish-like face peeked out, looking at Wang Yu with a questioning look.
"Someone wanted to kill me, so I killed him first. As for those mermen, it was a bit of a coincidence, but they ended up helping me out. This gun should be enough to offset that armor-piercing bullet."
"Snapped!"
Wang Yu spoke calmly, without mentioning that he had summoned the fishman himself through a ritual. He then slammed the Nightblade Kinetic Pistol and the Greedy Silver Serpent Revolver, which he had confiscated, onto Old Fish Head's table.
"A well-maintained firearm with signs of repair, the Nightblade. I repaired this gun before. The person who wanted to kill you was Paul? You took him out?!"
Old Fish Head looked at the Nightblade kinetic pistol, flipped it over a couple of times, and then determined who owned the gun. He now knew the name of the guy whose name Wang Yu never knew until his death.
"That should be it. He's also a member of the Tide Gang. Anyway, let's convert that Tianzhou Group's box into common currency as soon as possible. I really need the money right now."
Wang Yu didn't care who the guy who came to kill him was. He was already a corpse, so what was there to say? He reminded Old Fish Head to hurry up and exchange the goods for money, then got up and went upstairs to leave.
了
"Who exactly is this kid? Why does he have so many strange things about him?"
Old Fish Head watched Wang Yu's retreating figure as he walked upstairs, and the blood still dripping down. He muttered to himself, "There are many strange people in the ruined city, but the feeling this person gives me is especially strange."
……
"Knock knock knock..."
Upon reaching the fourth floor, Wang Yu tentatively knocked on the door of the doctor's residence. If the doctor was still there, treating his injuries would be much easier. However, as he expected, there was no response. The doctor said he had something to do, which meant he was no longer at home.
"pity."
Without lingering any longer, Wang Yu returned to his residence. Before he could even verify his identity at the door, it opened by itself, presumably because Ling Qi had opened it for him.
"That was really dangerous. Did I help you, Mr. Wang Yu?"
The robotic arm pushed a chair over so Wang Yu could sit down, and Ling Qi's strange voice, devoid of emotion, rang out.
"You've been a huge help. If you hadn't stopped their firing, I don't know if I'd be lying down or standing right now."
Dragging a chair to the table, Wang Yu took out the repair agent given to him by the doctor and sprayed it on the wound on his left rib. The intense pain made him frown slightly. After the bleeding stopped, he used a mechanic's awl to pry out the tooth bullet from his left arm.
At this point, the injuries sustained in the battle have basically stabilized. Afterward, once the dice reappear, a constitution check can be performed to accelerate recovery.
"Are the mermen that Mr. Wang Yu summoned just now, and the teeth that grew on the person who attacked you, the differences between our world and the world I know, that you mentioned before?"
Lingqi asked Wang Yu the questions it was curious about.
"That's about it. There are many things in this world that I don't yet understand. By the way, can you remotely control the Polaris electromagnetic shield I'm wearing from here?"
After giving a positive answer, Wang Yu then seemed to think of something and asked Ling Qi a question in return.
"I'm not entirely sure either, but it seems that as long as there's a device as a carrier, I can extend my sphere of influence, just like using Mr. Wang Yu's camera as a pedal to control the electromagnetic shield."
Lingqi herself didn't seem to fully understand what she was capable of; she simply followed her own ideas and succeeded.
In Wang Yu's view, the other party's ability probably goes beyond the scope of "technology". Considering what Old Fish Head mentioned about the Tianzhou Group's countermeasures against cheating by sorcerers, there should be more secrets hidden on Ling Qi. This incomplete chip is not simple.
"Anyway, thank you for your help. Is there anything you want? If possible, I will try my best to fulfill your request."
Thinking about it, he nodded and asked Ling Qi if there was anything she wanted.
"What do I need? I think I need a body that can move around, but that seems too difficult. I think I should first connect to the network that Mr. Wang Yu mentioned. I want to know more about this world."
Zero Seven thinks very quickly. It gave an answer almost immediately after Wang Yu asked it. As it said, Wang Yu really couldn't get a robot body for it to use right now, but there should be an opportunity to connect to the network later.
"Okay, after a while, once Old Fish Head exchanges the goods for common currency, I should be able to get a device that can connect to the network. But before that, I need to deal with some other things and remove the unstable and dangerous factors from my body."
Wang Yu touched his neck; the bulge was still there. In nine days, he would have to register the properties under the Hai Chao Gang. The Hai Chao Gang would then remove the explosive collar from him. At the same time, he would need to start completing the tasks assigned by the Hai Chao Gang.
"Are you referring to the thing around Mr. Wang Yu's neck? I originally thought you installed it yourself and neutralized it for Mr. Wang Yu."
Ling Qi's voice rang out, accompanied by a slight tremor in Wang Yu's neck, which made him feel genuinely surprised.
The guy from the Tide Gang mentioned earlier that he didn't want other gangs to remotely control the explosive collar to blow Wang Yu's head off, which means the explosive collar can be controlled from the outside.
And that's exactly what Zero Seven just did. In the extremely short time before Wang Yu could even react, it hacked into and took control of the explosive collar. This operation demonstrated a complete and utter technological superiority.
"One less thing to worry about."
Wang Yu sighed, leaning back in his chair, feeling a rare sense of relaxation. For the remaining nine days, he only needed to prepare to start working for the Tide Gang. This was a precious "freedom" in the abandoned city.
"And this too..."
Remembering something, Wang Yu placed the object formed from Paul's corpse on the table and began to observe and study it carefully. He then realized that the thing seemed to be alive, with its flesh and bones moving at a very slight amplitude.
"A magazine made of bone and flesh? Then it should at least have some function..."
Recalling the bullet that pierced his left arm, Wang Yu, wearing gloves, pressed down on the part of the object on the table that corresponds to the ejection part of a regular magazine.
"Gurgle, crack..."
The sound of flesh and teeth rubbing together was heard as a "tooth" was ejected from the bone and blood magazine and fell onto the table.
"It does look the same. If it can fire normally, then this thing could be useful to me."
Picking up the "tooth" and examining it closely, Wang Yu confirmed that it was indeed a special item that could be used as a bullet.
These special bullets have already demonstrated their value in previous battles, proving quite useful whether they ignore electromagnetic shields or cripple limbs after penetrating the body.
"It's hard to imagine how many of these strange things still exist in this world."
Wang Yu removed the tooth bullets one by one, looked at the now empty bone and blood magazine, muttered to himself as he walked to the freezer, took out a piece of meat, and stuffed it into the bone and blood magazine.
"Crunch, crunch..."
Chewing sounds soon filled the room. The bone-blood magazine rubbed against the bones and teeth, and began to gnaw and swallow the pieces of meat that Wang Yu had put inside. Just as he had thought, this thing was a living creature, so the teeth and bullets could regenerate. This magazine, which appeared for some unknown reason, was an unexpected gain this time.
"This is truly amazing. My knowledge is completely insufficient to understand how this item works. I desperately need more information to enrich my database."
Wang Yu was studying the Bone Blood Magazine, while Ling Qi watched from the side, and at this moment she spoke with a sigh in a voice devoid of emotion.
"Yes, me too. I need more information about the world."
Narrowing his eyes, Wang Yu sensed the void where the two used dice were located. There were too many mysteries waiting for him to unravel, both in this world and in himself.
……
Nine days passed quite quickly. Thanks to Wang Yu's strong physique, his injuries recovered smoothly within the time limit to a point where they would not cause any further problems.
"Knock knock".
Wang Yu stood in front of the door on the fourth floor with his bag on his back and knocked tentatively again, but there was no response. It seemed that the doctor still hadn't finished dealing with his matter.
As Wang Yu walked downstairs, Old Fish Head's shop was waiting for him with its side door open. The Greedy Silver Serpent revolver he had used before was on Old Fish Head's workbench, being modified.
"This gun has been modified for you. Now all seven magazines can be loaded with special ammunition. The money will still be charged to the universal currency you exchanged for that thing. As for the network equipment you wanted, you should be able to get it from the black market when you come back this time. Here is the remaining universal currency, a total of 30,000."
Old Fish Head handed the modified Greedy Silver Serpent Revolver to Wang Yu, and the converted universal currency was also delivered in the form of a chip. The transaction between the two regarding that Tianzhou Group product was thus officially concluded.
"It's a deal. If you don't come back for too long, I'll assume you've died out there. I'll take the order for the network access equipment; don't expect me to hold it for you."
After casually reminding Wang Yu, Old Fish Head buried himself back in his machine repair work for the day.
"become."
With a simple response, Wang Yu walked out of his building, his telekinesis extending from his fingertips, touching the trigger of the gun. The parasite, now fully grown, possessed enough telekinesis to pull the trigger. He headed towards the inner ring of the abandoned city, the day he would officially start working for the Tide Gang.
