Wow! The item-dropping rate is really high!

The old soldier complied willingly, handing over the contact information for the "doctor."

When the person in charge arrived, those following behind Xu Ruoguang, including Kuang Xin responsible for the liaison, were all gaping in surprise.

"How come it's you?"

It had been a long time since they had seen Zhou Wenjie, who scratched the back of his head and laughed, "I didn't expect it either, haha~"

Xu Ruoguang turned his head to look at the old soldier following him, "Is this the 'doctor' you were talking about?"

The old soldier replied softly, "The doctor is an organization..."

"..."

Zhou Wenjie's face was all smiles, "I came because I heard there was a chance to leave the city. I was planning to sneak out and find you guys, but it turns out the ones making contact with our organization were you..."

"Cough~" A cool voice echoed from the shadows of the room not far behind, coming from a woman dressed in a purple-red cheongsam, revealing her graceful and enchanting figure.

"She..."

"Hey~ Don't mind her." Zhou Wenjie casually waved his hand, "She's just here to protect me, afraid the local forces outside the city won't play by the rules."

The voice of the woman retorted coldly: "It's surveillance."

"Whatever you say~" Wenjie responded nonchalantly to the figure behind him, then turned eagerly to Kuang Xin and the others, "What kind of surgery? How many?"

"Probably dozens."

Among the survivors from Grey Iron City, quite a few of the original residents of Black Street were missing arms and legs.

Since they were going to be taken care of, fairness was essential.

"No problem..." Wenjie agreed immediately, "Where are they? Let's get to work!"

He was a man of action; when he said he would do something, he did it.

"No... Guys, what about the money? How much do you want?" Xu Ruoguang took the initiative to ask. Although he knew the man, after all, this was a negotiation between two forces, and some procedures had to be followed, no?

Zhou Wenjie waved his hand nonchalantly, "No need for money. We're all buddies here, why worry about money?"

"Cough~" The woman in the cheongsam coughed lightly again from a distance, her tone sounding somewhat cold and disgruntled, "The organization has been short on funds recently..."

"Oh~" Zhou Wenjie complied obediently, then casually threw out a price, "...Then it's 10,000 Blackwater coins."

Xu Ruoguang's expression darkened upon hearing this.

That was exorbitantly expensive, wasn't it? Weren't they buddies? The old soldiers all said they used to charge at most 5,000 per person, and now it's doubled with you?

With a confirmation in mind, Xu Ruoguang instinctively clarified, "Each?" Discover more stories at My Virtual Library Empire

"Bulk deal."

The woman's voice rose again in the background, her words sending a chill down the spines of even the unrelated bystanders like Kuang Xin, "Bulk deal!?"

Dozens of them! That would be dozens!

At the rate of 5,000 each, the total cost would be tens of thousands, even after a buddy discount of 20% or 40% off, it would still fill a considerable gap in the organization's funds.

But now, he wanted to do them all for just 10,000 in a bulk deal?

"Zhou! Wen! Jie!" The woman's face turned dark, the scar on her face looking particularly ferocious.

Zhou Wenjie turned around, spreading his hands, "What's to be done then? Why not just kill me?"

"..." The woman, called Wolf-Scorpion, paused for a moment, her words sharp, "The organization raised you..."

"Shut up!"

Wenjie suddenly shouted sternly, silencing Wolf-Scorpion. She watched as Zhou Wenjie's face became expressionless, doubt flickering in her eyes, "..."

"I'm the one exerting effort, not you." Wenjie quickly put on a docile, ingratiating smile, "You can just go back and say we did two, no one will know, right~"

"But there are dozens..."

"You know." Wenjie flexed his thin arms and legs, "I'm super fast."

"But the material costs..."

Seeing his chance to interject, Xu Ruoguang immediately exclaimed with delight, "I'll pay! I'll pay! We'll cover it ourselves! We've already bought all the materials!"

Xu Ruoguang, knowing the number of people involved, had made arrangements to purchase all the materials early on. With money, there were no barriers to acquiring them.

The true barrier to installing prosthetics was never the materials but the technical skills.

The direct interface of machinery with human nerves without causing conflict is a challenge that had led countless generations to painstaking trials and research.

Organizations possessing this technology invariably treated these abilities as core competitive advantages.

Wolf-Scorpion narrowed her eyes and bit her lower lip, then fell silent.

Seeing Wenjie turn towards them, Kuang Xin, Dai Lian, and Xu Ruoguang each involuntarily gave him a thumbs-up—

Brother, you're awesome! A role model for our generation!

They had long thought that this young man, sent into the city, had ended up as a black slave; they didn't expect that even a black slave could have his day as a master.

Awesome!

"Don't talk anymore, let's go, let's go!"

Eager to start the surgeries, itching to work.

Every skill in this game was imbued with Magic Power, inspiring desire.

Seeing that they had reached a consensus, Dai Lian made his way to where the players were waiting, "Who wants to go first?"

"Me, me!"

"Me!"

Eager to experience new things in the game, the players, leaning on their broken limbs, jostled to be first, buzzing with excitement.

"Then it's you," Dai Lian said, picking someone at random and bringing him to the somewhat gloomy operating room.

"Lie down." Zhou Wenjie, who had already changed into a white surgical suit, issued the command with equal excitement.

In the operating room, he was king.

"Do you want anesthesia?"
