Seeing Lin Mo say the words "I want to be a legend" with a serious look on his face, Xu Wanxue was stunned for a few seconds, but finally couldn't hold it in anymore and burst into laughter.
Her mood at this time was just like that of an ordinary parent who sees their child saying with a serious expression, "I will become Autuman in the future and defeat you two monsters."
Interesting, funny, but also a bit gratifying.
"Tell me, how do you want to become a legend?"
Xu Wanxue hugged her knees, tilted her head and looked at Lin Mo with a smile.
She naturally remembered that Lin Mo often secretly hid it from her and went to train in his own private base.
But in her opinion, these so-called physical exercises are just children's trivial activities. In today's era of popularized prosthetics, physical training is the most useless and time-wasting behavior.
Even those muscle maniacs from the Animal Gang who worship the body and pursue the wild nature of animals would not do this.
Although they were all tall and thick and exercised their muscles every day, Xu Wanxue even suspected that those people might even have muscles in their heads and not very bright minds.
But they are not stupid enough to waste time doing physical exercises from ancient times. Their current exercise methods use various synthetic hormones and various pharmaceuticals to promote rapid muscle strengthening, supplemented by high-intensity muscle stimulation.
exercise.
The ultimate result of this kind of reckless injection of drugs is that the most powerful members of the Animal Gang often have physical strength that rivals that of ferocious beasts!
When Xu Wanxue found out that Lin Mo was exercising, she was worried that he would use various hormones that exceeded the reasonable dosage.
But fortunately, he didn't.
Otherwise, Xu Wanxue really couldn't imagine her brother changing from a sweet and delicious crispy pear to a bloated, firm and smelly sweet potato.
Faced with Xu Wanxue's doubts, Lin Mo didn't explain much, turned around and walked into the house. When he came back, he already had a ruler in his hand.
"You hold the top end, and I put my hand on the end of the ruler. Then you suddenly let go, and I hold the ruler again." Lin Mo said.
"Measuring reaction speed is not bad. I often do such experiments in the company."
Xu Wanxue saw the meaning of this little game at a glance and was happy to play this little game with Lin Mo.
When both of them were ready, Lin Mo put his hand on the lower end of the ruler and stared at the ruler intently, while Xu Wanxue held the top of the ruler, looked at Lin Mo and then let go inadvertently.
The next second, she was stunned.
Because she saw that the ruler did not fall due to gravity, but stopped in mid-air, as if she had not let go at all.
Looking down, he saw that Lin Mo had easily grasped the bottom end of the ruler, barely letting the ruler fall even half a centimeter.
"Such a quick reaction...you implanted Klenzikov? No, there are no traces of Klenzikov's implant on your back." Xu Wanxue said to herself in disbelief.
Krenzikov, known as the neuroreflex component, is a prosthetic body that was born during the same period of technological explosion as the Sianwistan prosthetic body.
If Sianwistan, known as the "speed component", is the sharp spear of the top mercenaries, then Krenzikov, known as the "neural reflex component", will be an indispensable dodge for the mercenaries.
shield.
The shape of this prosthetic body is a long strip similar to a spine, and many mercenaries nickname it a centipede.
Because anyone who is implanted with this prosthetic body must have a surgical operation performed by a prosthetist to extract multiple vertebrae native to the body, and then replace the extracted vertebrae with Klenchikov.
After the surgery is completed, the person implanted with the prosthesis will also have a metal shell-like external device on the posterior midline of the back, just like a metal centipede parasitic on the back spine.
Unless the person concerned is implanted with bionic skin as a cover, the implantation traces of the prosthetic body will be visible at a glance.
In the game, this prosthetic body has the same "time-slowing" effect as Si'an Westan, except that it is a passive trigger type and the lasting effect is short-lived, while the latter is an active trigger type.
But now that he has come to the real cyber world, Lin Mo is very familiar with this prosthetic body after so many years of exposure. The settings in the game are no longer 100% credible after being transformed into reality.
This prosthetic body is claimed to enhance people's neurological response capabilities, but in fact it is completely inferior to the miraculous slowdown effect of Sean Westan.
Its biggest effect is to increase the limit of human reaction ability and load a kind of neural reflex effect.
This effect is similar to an unconditioned reflex such as a "knee-jerk reflex".
When the implanter is in a stressful state such as nervousness or mental stress, the prosthetic body will passively enhance the implanter's neural response speed, achieving a "pseudo-time-stop" effect.
Under this effect, you will feel the flow of time around you slowing down, but you will also be slowed down.
Because the prosthetic body only enhances your neural response ability, it does not stimulate the physical body like the Sian Westan, allowing the implanter to maintain the original speed in a slow state.
"The effect provided by Krenzikov will only be passively triggered when the nerves are tense, but I am different. My reaction speed is just that fast." Lin Mo explained.
He put the ruler back on the table and suddenly felt a chill for no reason. He looked up and found his sister looking at him with a fiery face.
"As expected of my brother, with such a high talent, if all the experimenters in the company are as talented as you, the product development speed will at least be increased several times." Xu Wanxue couldn't help but admire.
If she found an ordinary person with such a high talent, Xu Wanxue would definitely try her best to get that person to participate in human experiments of the company's products.
But now the person who showed this talent in front of her was his younger brother, and Xu Wanxue was absolutely reluctant to let him serve as a guinea pig.
Lin Mo was stunned when he heard this, seemed to think of something, and asked:
"Will the talents of the experimenters still affect the effectiveness of the prosthetic body?"
Xu Wanxue rolled up one side of her hair and took a sip of wine. She looked at Lin Mo who looked like a curious baby and hesitated whether to tell him about the company's research results.
But in the end, pampering prevailed, and she put down her glass and answered the question:
"Yes, this is also the thing that troubles us the most. Everyone is a unique individual. It is difficult for us to control the physical functions, talents and other differences of each experimenter. The experimental data of various products also show the talents
importance."
"Some people are very talented, such as those with strong reflexes. They are extremely tolerant to prosthetics such as Sean Westan and Krenzikov. Ordinary people can only use them a few times a day, but they can use them ten times a day.
Several times.”
"Not only that, when people with good talent use Si'an Westan, the effect of slowing down time will also be enhanced. Type 2 speed components currently on the market can slow down time by 50%, but for people with high talent,
For example, they can achieve 60-70%."
Lin Mo was stunned for a moment, then asked: "Why?"
Xu Wanxue spread her hands and said helplessly:
"Isn't it because of the complexity of the human nervous system? Do you think the real world is a game? Humans are not machines. Do you really think that you can keep this number just by randomly setting it?"
"Those speed components on the market are said to be able to slow down time to 50%. In fact, the results are obtained by converting a large amount of experimental data to an average value. If ordinary people use it, they should slow down to about 50%."
Lin Mo suddenly realized.
As Xu Wanxue said, he did use game thinking to understand the relevant knowledge of prosthetics.
After all, humans are not machines. Humans are changeable. Although prosthetics can now be implanted, humans are still the subject after all.
How could it be like in the game, where it says it slows down time to 50% and then keeps it at 50%...
Lin Mo frowned, and a suspicion suddenly appeared in his mind, so he quickly asked:
"Is this rule also affected by the model of the Sian Westan? The higher the model of the prosthetic body, the harder it is for ordinary people to bear the side effects of the prosthetic body?"
Xu Wanxue looked at her younger brother in surprise, with an expression on her face that seemed to say, "How did you know?"
"Is this your intuition again?" She shook her head helplessly and smiled.
No, this is the setting in the game... Lin Mo complained, but he still pretended to smile mysteriously.
In the game Cyberpunk 2077, most of the prosthetics in the game require the attributes of the game character to meet the requirements before they can be chosen to be implanted by the prosthetic doctor.
According to Xu Wanxue, ordinary people can also implant prostheses with extremely high loads and severe side effects, but their tolerance is different?
That's right, if the attributes are forced to meet the requirements, high-model prosthetics can be implanted.
Then it is impossible for these prosthetics to fall into the hands of prosthetic doctors, let alone be sold to the top mercenaries, or even be developed.
Xu Wanxue sighed. After so many years of getting along with each other, she was no longer surprised by Lin Mo's intuition that could be called "predicting the future."
"It's exactly what you said. According to our research, the higher the model of the prosthesis, the greater the load. Type 2 is a product that is one generation different from type 1. While the performance is enhanced, it is normal for the load to become higher.
.”
"And we have also discovered that some people with very good talents have implants of lower-model prostheses that will not cause side effects no matter how many times they are used."
Xu Wanxue lowered her head, shaking the remaining liquid in the wine glass in her hand. The wine in the glass reflected her deep eyes.
"There are exceptions for Type 3 and above. We have tested and found that if you want to carry the Siannwestan Type 3 or the Klenchikov Type 3, the talent required far exceeds the limits of human beings."
"The company not only has the data we tested, but also the data obtained from other companies. So far, no experimenter's talent is strong enough to ignore the side effects of Siamwestein Type 3."
Lin Mo frowned. Regarding the bit of information Xu Wanxue mentioned, he seemed to remember the settings in the game.
All type 3 Sianwistan... seems to require the character's reaction attribute to reach 12 before it can be equipped.
Reaction 10 is already the limit of human beings. If you want to break through this limit, you must implant other prosthetics that enhance reactions and break through the attribute limits.
Therefore, people who can meet this attribute condition cannot be reduced to experimental personnel.
In reality, that is to say, the corresponding attribute requirements must be met in order to ignore the load of the prosthetic body and become like the game character V, who can use it as many times a day as possible.
From this point of view, do the prosthetics of other body parts also follow this rule?
Lin Mo fell into deep thought.
Xu Wanxue continued to look at Lin Mo, stood up and walked to Lin Mo, stroking his hair gently:
"Actually, with me here, you don't need to implant those harmful prosthetics."
"Even if you want stars in the sky, with today's aviation technology, I can still ask someone to help you move a meteorite back from the sky!"
"Is there anything else you're not satisfied with?"
Xu Wanxue stared at Lin Mo with burning eyes, her eyes full of tenderness.

PS: In the supplementary setting chapter, I would like to mention that the nickname of [Sianwistan] is [Speed Component].
