Chapter 539 - 523: Where Is the Medicine Man? Where Is My Medicine Man?
Before the words were finished, "Feng Mu" cast aside Shi Wuming’s severed arm that was blocking his chest as if discarding garbage.
The severed arm fell powerlessly beside the bed, making a dull sound.
"Feng Mu! You—"
Shi Wuming’s cold shout came to an abrupt halt, his pupils suddenly constricting into a row of needlepoints.
He gazed in horror as "Feng Mu’s" five fingers bent outward, revealing a dense array of metal needles from under the fingertips, their tips tightly arranged in a jagged pattern.
Like a cold, vertical saw?!!
The next instant, the saw began cutting into his chest.
Beneath Shi Wuming’s flesh and blood, between the ribs were embedded metal plates, as hard as overlapping armor.
Ordinary blades couldn’t sever them, but the explosion had left cracks on them, and what Feng Mu pierced in was precisely a "saw."
So, amidst sparks flying, the cracks were gradually sliced open.
Shi Wuming’s body had undergone modifications, his pain threshold only 10% of normal.
He didn’t feel much pain, but watching the "sizzle" of blood oozing from his chest and listening to the teeth-gritting sound of cutting, his fear was unstoppable.
"I saved your life,"
"Feng Mu," however, said incredibly calmly as he operated,
"Let me take a piece of you as thanks, you wouldn’t refuse, right? Knowing gratitude is what distinguishes humans from beasts."
Shi Wuming watched Feng Mu’s calm expression, as if lecturing him on life principles, and his face turned pale; the two words flipped repeatedly in his mind:
"Madman!"
Yet, even at this moment, Shi Wuming still didn’t believe "Feng Mu" truly meant to kill him; he thought the other just wanted to dismantle his parts and sell them, which could indeed fetch a hefty sum.
Just like he intended to do to Feng Mu.
Oh, there was a difference: Feng Mu only wanted his parts, while he wanted to sell Feng Mu whole.
Comparatively, Feng Mu was still a tad kinder~
"Repaying kindness, yes, yes, you saved me, naturally, I must repay you!"
Shi Wuming said hastily, coolant sliding down his forehead like cold sweat,
"Don’t rush, let me handle it; the blood is too dirty and sullies your hands.
This way, give me a day; after I finish repairs and replacements tomorrow, I’ll package all these old parts for you."
"Feng Mu" paused slightly, and Shi Wuming thought the other was moved; just as he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, he saw "Feng Mu" continue moving and softly say:
"Tomorrow, eh? Unfortunately, I can’t wait until tomorrow."
With a crisp "crack," the chest armor was finally cut open, separating to reveal the half-mechanical, half-flesh organs inside.
The most striking was the heart, sparking with arcs of electricity, both a biological organ and a miniature generator, powering all of Shi Wuming’s body components.
The heart’s power source was, besides his eyes, the most valuable implant in Shi Wuming’s body.
Sensing "Feng Mu’s" intense gaze, Shi Wuming was thoroughly panicked.
"You can’t take my heart!"
Shi Wuming’s voice distorted:
"You can take the others, my stomach, my kidneys, my spleen, I can give them all to you! But please leave my heart, without it, I’m powerless!"
For cyborgs, bleeding out might not spell death, but losing power certainly does.
The downside of being part-machine part-flesh is just that; there’s no such thing as rebooting once powered down.
"Feng Mu" paid no heed and instead gently touched the beating heart.
The touch was warm and odd, with synthetic muscles encasing a titanium-alloy shell, where biological tissue and mechanics bizarrely fused; the needle tips of his fingers gently brushed over the heart’s surface patterns.
It was a black sunflower design, representing the Bright Group’s logo.
"But the one who commissioned me said,"
"Feng Mu" whispered in Shi Wuming’s ear, breathing onto his face,
"He said he only wants your heart."
Shi Wuming’s cerebral cortex froze as if encased in ice.
He finally awoke to the fact that "Feng Mu" wasn’t here to rob him, but to kill him.
"How dare you? How dare you?!"
Shi Wuming roared internally, his cheek muscles twitching violently.
However, when he spoke, his voice bore a tinge of pleading:
"Feng, don’t be reckless! VVIP corridors are all monitored; footage of you entering my room is crystal clear! If you kill me, there’s no way you’ll get away!"
"Feng Mu" suddenly broke into a grin.
The smile was eerily rigid, only the corners of his mouth lifted, without a wrinkle at the eye corners, like wearing a fake human-skin mask.
He looked down at Shi Wuming’s terrified eyes, eerily saying:
"You’re not wrong, but that’s exactly what I want!"
Shi Wuming’s scalp tingled as if splitting; he suddenly widened his eyes, a faint blue light flickered in his pupils, the [Bone Detection Eye] quietly began scanning.

Remark:
Over 30% of comparison data is not in the database, action is recommended cautiously, adjust value score and danger level upwards if necessary!
Shi Wuming stared at this remark: "???"
No, where’s the [Medicine Man]?
The glaring "Medicine Man" label in Feng Mu’s notes, where did it go?
Shi Wuming felt a chill in his heart, his cranial CPU running at high speed, reaching a stunning conclusion, he exclaimed:
"You’re not Feng Mu, who are you?"
If it were Feng Mu, the person would not dare kill him, but if it’s not Feng Mu, then his life...
Shi Wuming’s face turned ashen, lightning-fast deducing the truth in his mind, and exclaimed:
"It’s not Feng Mu who wants to kill me, then it can only be..."
