Luo Qi ran ahead, frantically running in circles, with a cyberpsycho snapping at his heels, whooshing sounds non-stop, just like a horror game. "Why is she chasing and slashing at me as soon as I show up!?" Luo Qi didn't have time to figure out the situation before he had to start evading like crazy. "All of you go die waaaaaagh!!!" A shadow whooshed past him like a gust of wind, smashing an innocent box with a single punch, sending debris and flames flying everywhere. Sister, let's not talk about your aim, but what's with this strength? One punch and it's game over? Luo Qi's face turned pale, and he ran for his life. He just wanted to find a temporary teammate here, thinking that cyberpsychotics probably had decent combat capabilities, but he never expected the firsthand experience to be this terrifying. It felt like the next moment... Ahhh, don't chop my butt!! He originally thought handling a cyberpsycho would involve just a few clicks and keystrokes, but when he arrived at the scene, he realized he could only run for his life. What the hell are you Militech idiots eating? You couldn't slow her down at all and just failed miserably?! Luo Qi sprinted past countless lifeless bodies lying in the water—all cut up by the enraged Lieutenant Mohr, splattering blood everywhere, or charred black by a "Flaming Meteor Punch". None of them had died in a slightly dignified manner. "I'm going to smash your brains out waaaagh!!!" Lieutenant Mohr charged at him again in a frenzy. Luo Qi felt a shudder down his spine and rolled to the side, watching her smash a wall-mounted electrical box with her flaming fists. "Zzzzzzzz---!!!!!!" "Crackle, crackle, crackle..." Several bright sparks escaped, electrocuting the soaked Lieutenant Mohr, who was standing in the water. Luo Qi blinked and quickly jumped to dry ground. He saw her bent over, trembling, struggling to wave her arms, but she didn't fall. Instead, she removed her helmet, revealing three external cybernetic eyes on each side. They were high-tech products from the company, designed to enhance the wearer's optical and visual capabilities, resembling a certain sword saint. With the cover removed, Luo Qi could now see her true, bloodshot, red eyes. "Ughhhhhhhhhhh---!!!!!!" In movies, they would usually win at this point! Why is she still going berserk after getting injured?! Luo Qi was on the verge of tears and continued to run in circles frantically. He couldn't use a knife or a gun, and he had to preserve her life and even her combat abilities while avoiding being smashed into oblivion by a single punch. Capturing a cyberpsycho with bare hands was way harder than he had imagined, right?! I Told You I'm Strong Lieutenant Mohr's behavior reminded Luo Qi of a rampaging rhino or a derailed train—spotting the target, letting out a roar, accelerating with a "whoosh" and charging straight ahead, only to crash into a wall or stumble off-balance and almost fall into the water.
After becoming berserk, her strength increased significantly, but she lost her rationality and judgement, always charging forward with "swish swish swish" steps, and then "bang bang bang" against the walls.
A military technology lieutenant, and even a special forces member, must have at least NCPD anti-terrorism mobile squad-level combat capabilities. Especially after undergoing terrifying military-grade implant modifications, fighting...
It would be as fierce as a ghost!!
Luo Qi tumbled like a donkey, barely dodging an incoming punch, with his scalp tingling.
A fist tearing through the air with a howl, grazing past his face.
"Hey hey hey, don't go too far, when I get serious..."
Luo Qi warned, then watched Moer shakily stand up, slowly turning around.
Gulping... he swallowed his saliva.
This damned oppressive feeling made him somewhat unconfident.
"I...aaah waaaaaagh!!"
Finally, after countless collisions (in the physical sense), Moer gave up all her moves and charged straight towards Luo Qi's face with large strides.
A black shadow streaked through the air, approaching rapidly like an unsheathed sharp blade.
One slash aimed at the throat.
Time seemed to slow down in that moment.
Moonlight pierced through the towering apartment buildings, falling on the rippling water surface.
The 24-hour convenience store played cheerful pop music.
The lights of thousands of homes were scattered in the night, with varying brightness.
In this secluded courtyard, you could hear the deepest and lowest breaths of the city.
"Snap."
Luo Qi accurately grabbed her wrist holding the knife and struck her abdomen with his palm.
"Ha!!"
Lieutenant Moer's body was pulled over, lifted up violently, drawing a neat arc in the air, and her back slammed heavily into the waterlogged ground.
Splashes of water surged, and everything settled.
The short knife slipped from her hand and fell, "thud" into the water, the swaying ripples shattered the cold gleaming blade into numerous shadows.
"Phew, that was close." Luo Qi exhaled, wiped his cold sweat, and looked at Lieutenant Moer rolling painfully in the water, "I told you, if you had surrendered earlier, you wouldn't have had to suffer."
Her body couldn't withstand the overloaded burst, covered in multiple gunshot wounds, and had injured herself by slamming into the walls. The shoulder throw had taken the wind out of her sails.
If it wasn't for the passive stimulation of military-grade cyberware, she would have fainted by now.
This heavy blow should be enough to calm her down in the water for a while.
Pulling out her communication device, he sat down leisurely and checked the messages.
"Hey, this is Lucky." Luo Qi called Regina with some exhaustion.
"How's it going? Did you get it done?"
"I got the data from her, sending it to you now—she's from the corporate special forces, probably sensed the danger of losing control and went to see a doctor. But military tech didn't help her; instead, they sent a... two squads here, all wiped out by her."
"Great." Regina nodded, "I'll send a car over right away."
"No, there's no need, she's already dead." Saying this, Luo Qi aimed the PDA's camera at Moer on the ground.
She was stepped on by Luo Qi, motionless, soaking in the water like seaweed.
"Weren't you told to hold back?" Regina frowned.
"She was too badly injured, as soon as she laid down, she lost her breath, there was nothing I could do." Luo Qi shrugged, "It's alright, worst case I'll help you.
Upon hanging up the phone, Luo Qi lifted his foot.
The pinned-down Mo Er finally gasped for air in pain, spitting out a lot of water.
"Cough, cough, cough...!!"
In fact, she wasn't dead, just pinned down by Luo Qi, unable to move at all.
Even with her brain feeling like mush, Mo Er could deeply sense the danger.
She had never felt such a threat from a person before, like the moment she lost in their brief encounter, and that heavy footstep, as if she was facing not a human but a hydraulic press, with terrifying strength.
However, the excruciating pain coming from her body continued to drain her last bit of energy.
"waaaaaagh...!!"
"Kill me, ahhh..."
Mo Er covered her chest, rolling non-stop in the water, even though she had no strength left.
"Ah... who could have thought of this?" Luo Qi sighed, scooping her up in one hand and tucking her under his arm.
Mo Er, who was left with nothing but flailing, wasn't much harder to handle than a big golden retriever.
"Disperse, disperse, taxi!"
Luo Qi bared his teeth and frightened away the onlookers, forcibly stopping a cab trying to flee the scene.
"Drive, to Bradbury Street."
The driver had no choice but to comply, trembling under the pressure of Luo Qi's gun and money, and drove the car to the familiar old place as requested.
Kicking open the iron gate and scaring away the men and women loitering in front of the vending machine, Luo Qi dragged the struggling Mo Er, who was twisting like a small motor, into the dark basement.
In here, he would do things to the body of this "weak, pitiful, and helpless" woman that couldn't be seen by others.
hiahiahia~
"Old Wei! Come out and serve your customer!"
Luo Qi shouted, pulling open the diamond-shaped iron door.
"Oh, it's Lucky. What's up today?" Victor pushed his glasses, pausing the boxing match he was watching, "What kind of guy did you bring back?"
"A lieutenant from the military tech, probably installed with some experimental cyberware, causing her to be in immense pain like a madman. The military tech even sent people to silence her, but I knocked her down and brought her back," Luo Qi threw Mo Er onto the dentist's chair, forcefully putting her in handcuffs on her wrists and ankles.
"Alright, let me take a look."
Victor's voice was always calm.
He connected the data interface, operating it swiftly, although Luo Qi couldn't understand it.
"Help me hold her down, or she'll break my chair," Old Wei said, "Hmm... her hormones are all messed up, causing her great damage."
"Is there any hope for her, Old Wei?" Luo Qi asked, "And is there any backdoor program or locator on her?"
"Don't worry," Old Wei said slowly, "I've thought of everything you could think of, I've removed all of it, at least for now, no one will bother us."
With a shot of sedative and disconnecting the problematic cyberware, Mo Er's pain was alleviated, but the cyberware directly installed on her nervous system had caused irreversible damage.
"Santivestan and Krenzikov, these are standard combat implants," Old Wei analyzed the information on the panel, "Too reckless, piling on pain editors and response coordinators without undergoing deep modification, even without problems, it would cause an excessive burden."
"Adding implants so crudely before deep modification is simply murder."
"So, Old Wei, ,what should I do? Is there any hope for her?"
