The crystalline computer that some might erroneously call The Chirugeon quietly continued its simulations while watching its host reattach the hind limb of one of the host's species. Its host hadn't wasted any time and had already gotten a reputation with its fellow mammals as someone who could provide medical miracles, so long as the mammals exchanged with it slips of paper. It approved of the host's actions, although it tried to subtly give the host better ideas from time to time. What was so…-

I decided to get the nanosurgeon treatment at the same I bought the Self-ICE system. Dr Taylor strongly recommended I not get any further augmentations, bioware or cyberware, for at least a year if I wanted to stay off the city's radar, so I figured that my time visiting his clinic was probably over, at least for a while. Unfortunately, as the nanosurgeons cost eleven thousand eurodollars, my bank balance was just less than eighty now, so it was getting to the point where I couldn't afford to go back in…

NC Med Ambulance had a "traditional" EMS schedule of twenty-four hours on, twenty-four off, twenty-four on and then four or five days off. You ended up working about fifty hours a week unless you worked an extra half or complete shift on your days off. The burden was below average for normal Night City workers, who usually worked between fifty-five to sixty hours a week, with some working much more than that. I kind of liked the schedule since it gave me a lot of time off. However, it was kind of rough…

There were a number of things I didn't like about my new job. And I experienced two of them right away. Namely, the uniform included a garish, high-visibility safety-yellow jacket with reflective white stripes. This was part of a standard uniform of any med-tech working emergency calls, and the requirements were set by the city so that medtechs and paramedics could be easily and quickly identified. On the plus side, it was made of a ballistic kevlar microweave and was supposedly bullet resistant. It also…

The next couple of days were pretty interesting. Himiko resumed her running two days later but wouldn't talk about it until they both walked back to the twelfth floor, and she asked if she could come inside my apartment briefly. As soon as the door closed, Himiko turned to her and said, "You won't believe what happened! I mean, I bet you saw all the goons in front of Clouds the other day, but about twenty Tyger Claw enforcers came in and arrested everyone but the dolls and the clients that were still…

Himiko was relaxing as I checked Evelyn's implants. Hers was installed in a much better manner, albeit still not what I would consider good, which made me wonder as she claimed that she used the same doctor as Himiko did. Perhaps the doctor was just having a bad day? However, the same malware was installed in both her doll chip, which was made by a different manufacturer, as well as her operating system. The same malware made me a bit suspicious. I might have suspected it was something that Clouds was…

Segmentum PacificusSparsio Rami SectorOrkney SystemOrkney IV I sat atop the hay loft, amidst straw up to my shoulders, while I watched my father, my older brothers and a couple of servants loading all of our belongings into the wagon. They had already attached the collars and harnesses to two of our largest trixit and were probably about to connect them both to the wagon, which was probably a sign I had hidden long enough. I wasn't the youngest—those would be my two baby brothers, but they would be…-

Well, that's it. Clearly, the story was getting rushed and rushed as the last 50, maybe even 100 or so chapters were written with the last 30 being insanely rushed. That is unfortunate, but the author mentioned he had serious medical issues so at least he finished the story. All in all, despite these issues I quite enjoyed reading…

In the multiverse, a silhouette stepped out from another dimension. This person was none other than Wang Ping. Now, Wang Ping had ascended to a true double-digit existence, and with a mere gesture, he could easily destroy or create the multiverse. One must admit, this power left Wang Ping in awe. However, recalling the danger he faced during his breakthrough, Wang Ping couldn't help but feel lingering fear. He had almost failed, almost perished completely. If it weren't for the…
