Chapter 70 - Chapter 70 Rocky's Invitation

The Sandevistan was activated.

In an instant, the world in David's eyes slowed down.

David excitedly felt this state, tried to move, and ran two laps around the clinic.

At this moment, in David's eyes, Luoqi and Lucy's movements became incredibly slow, and even the smoke from the cigarette in Lucy's hand drifted several times slower than usual.

"So powerful! This is the Sandevistan!" David cheered.

This was the ability he had dreamed of.

Feeling the world slow down, David curiously came before Luoqi and looked him over.

Reaching out and waving his hand in front of Luoqi, David wanted to see how Luoqi would react.

But just then, Luoqi, who was moving incredibly slowly in David's eyes, suddenly had his eyes darting rapidly, fixing on David.

Their eyes met, and a smile played on Luoqi's lips.

Then, Luoqi was seen reaching out and lifting David up with one hand.

"Having fun?" Luoqi asked, looking at David whose eyes were full of surprise.

"Huh?" David hadn't quite processed what had happened.

Looking around, the Sandevistan's state clearly hadn't ended yet, so why could Luoqi grab him? David was a bit confused.

"You installed a Sandevistan too?" David asked, puzzled.

Luoqi, however, shook his head.

"The Sandevistan is just the most basic cyberware. Don't think you're so powerful just because you installed this. Without the corresponding strength, you're just a bug that runs a bit faster."

The Sandevistan's state ended, and Luoqi flicked his hand, sending David flying out. David stumbled, almost losing his balance.

Scratching his head, David felt a bit awkward. He hadn't expected that even after installing the Sandevistan, he still had no ability to resist in Luoqi's hands.

"This is an immunosuppressant, it can suppress the side effects brought by cyberware. Remember to inject it regularly.

Also, the Sandevistan puts a burden on the body, so don't use it casually, understand?"

Taking out two doses of immunosuppressant and throwing them to David, Luoqi reminded him.

Although with David's talent, as long as he didn't activate the Sandevistan seven or eight times in a short period, there shouldn't be any major issues.

But this kid doesn't understand anything. If he wasn't reminded, he'd probably turn around and treat the Sandevistan like a toy, activating it over a dozen times a day wouldn't be surprising.

Thinking about how troublesome it would be if he fainted and had to bother him, it was too much of a headache.

"Understood."

Hearing Luoqi's words, David nodded seriously.

Luoqi had helped David a lot, and David was quite convinced by his words.

"Oh right, this Sandevistan... must cost a lot, right? And the medical fees and stuff, but I don't have any money right now.

But don't worry, when my mom wakes up, I'll figure something out with her, I won't owe you."

David suddenly remembered that high-level cyberware like the Sandevistan must cost a lot, not to mention the medical fees for the surgery.

Luoqi had already changed out of his suit and put on a Ripperdoc's clothing.

David guessed that Luoqi might be a Ripperdoc, and the Sandevistan was an item he usually sold.

But Luoqi's answer was beyond David's expectations.

"This Sandevistan wasn't mine to begin with, so you don't need to pay. But as for the surgery fee, I should indeed collect it."

"The Sandevistan isn't yours? Then how did you install it for me?"

David's mind couldn't quite process it.

"This is your mother's item, it was originally in that black bag."

Luoqi revealed the truth. Since David had already installed the Sandevistan, he would know about this sooner or later anyway.

And Luoqi had no obligation to help Gloria conceal all of this.

"Ah? My mom's? My mom... why would she have something like this?"

David couldn't quite believe it. In his eyes, his mom had always been a hardworking ordinary person, and shouldn't have anything to do with dangerous cyberware like the Sandevistan.

Luoqi, however, shrugged.

"Then you'll have to ask her yourself."

The Sandevistan was something Gloria had secretly taken while cleaning up the scene of a cyberpsycho's death.

This kind of thing was inherently difficult to explain, so it was better to leave it for Gloria to deal with the headache herself.

"I understand, I'll ask her myself to be clear.

Anyway, thank you very much for your help. I will definitely repay the medical fees. My name is David."

David nodded. Although he had many questions in his heart, he could only wait until Gloria woke up to ask.

"L."

Responding to David's introduction, Luoqi added David's contact information and sent the medical bill to David's email.

'L... okay, I'll remember that.'

This was the first time David knew Luoqi's name. He was sincerely grateful for what Luoqi had done for him. If it weren't for Luoqi, his mother might have met with misfortune.

Remembering Luoqi's name, David turned to look at Lucy beside him. Although Lucy hadn't said much, she was after all with Luoqi, and David felt it was necessary to say hello.

Seeing David look over, Lucy glanced at him.

"Lucy."

Lucy responded indifferently.

Although she wasn't very interested in David, Lucy now understood why Luoqi said he was very talented.

After all, this military-grade Sandevistan, many battle-hardened soldiers couldn't even handle it. Now installed on David, not only was he fine, but he could even operate it.

This in itself was already astonishing enough.

"Alright, there's nothing else. Take your mother, I'll take you back."

Luoqi didn't plan to waste any more time and motioned for David to take Gloria.

Getting into the car, Luoqi drove them back to Santo Domingo.

"Um, Mr. L, I don't think I told you the address, how did you know I live here?"

Seeing the car stop below the super skyscraper H4, David suddenly remembered that Luoqi hadn't asked for his address, and he had forgotten to tell him.

Luoqi, however, lightly tapped his temple with his hand.

"Don't forget, I'm a hacker."

Hearing Luoqi's words, David was stunned for a moment.

Recalling everything that happened in the black clinic, David suddenly felt that everything seemed quite reasonable.

He was just a bit curious now about what role Luoqi actually played.

Hacker, agent, or Ripperdoc?

"You're curious about my identity, huh? Well, you'll understand later.

If you want to find a job and don't want to bury the Sandevistan's potential, you can come find me."

Looking at the somewhat confused David, Luoqi opened his mouth and smiled.

Having installed the Sandevistan on David, Luoqi believed that David would no longer be a good student who went to school every day, like before.

Once he had his talk with Gloria and sorted everything out, it would be time for him to start his legendary life.
