Fighting Against a Cyborg

The little girl gave up after realizing that the strange mushroom could not be picked.

After picking all the mushrooms off Mo Fan's body, she happily turned around and left.

After the girl left, Mo Fan discovered something very strange.

There were no more mushrooms growing on his body!

No matter how agitated he was, no new mushrooms grew.

What was going on?

Just as he was feeling extremely emotional, a system notification interrupted his thoughts.

[System Notification: Your Mushroom Spirit Bloodline has been used up. Your talent "Inferior Mushroom Spirit Bloodline" has disappeared!]

Mo Fan looked at his own status panel. Indeed, he did not have the talent anymore!

What the heck, this talent could even disappear?

What an odd talent…

No wonder he thought that something was amiss from the start.

He did not even have time to properly make use of this talent before it was gone!

Mo Fan looked at himself.

After the little girl plucked every mushroom on his body, the random stat increase did not appear anymore. After most of his stats were increased to 1000, they did not grow anymore.

From this, one could conclude that the stat gain wasn't infinite.

After reaching a certain value, one particular attribute could not increase anymore.

On the contrary, the stun duration continued to increase.

Current Stun Duration: 317 years!

It decreased by the second.

He had to think of a special way to get rid of the stun duration.

If he really had to wait for such a long time, it would basically spell the end of his career in this game. Logically speaking, it was the mushroom poison in his body that caused the paralysis.

Now that the talent had disappeared, there should be a way to get rid of the poison.

But how should he get rid of it?

Mo Fan was perplexed!

After thinking for a long time, Mo Fan could not come up with any good ideas.

Annoyed, he went offline.

The scene in front of him changed and Mo Fan found himself in the gaming capsule in the real world.

He quickly got up and stretched his body.

Earlier, he couldn't move his body in the game. Obviously, since he couldn't move. He couldn't change his posture and it made him mentally uncomfortable.

Mo Fan looked at the time.

Unknowingly, it has been seven hours since he entered the game.

It was already two in the morning.

He stayed up late once again!

He went to the computer to confirm the balance of his bank account. There, he realized that he was not dreaming.

He really had more than 20 million dollars in his bank account!

With so much money, he could buy a better house and a luxury car.

However, he had just bought this house and it was enough for now.

Mo Fan did not intend to change it for the time being.

"They all say that men will change once they have money. But no matter what, I will stay true to myself!"

Mo Fan nodded to himself.

…

At ten o'clock the next morning, Mo Fan woke up.

He dressed, washed up, and ate breakfast as fast as he could.

Mo Han went to work early in the morning, leaving him alone at home.

He turned on his computer and logged into a talent recruitment website.

Mo Fan started to look for his own target—a pretty housekeeper!

He browsed through it casually.

In real life, the younger and prettier the housekeepers were, the more expensive they were.

There were also cheaper humanoid machines that were made realistic using imitation silicone.

Their AI was also pretty good. Thus, they could provide special services.

Looking at the rental rates, and the customer reviews, the number of customers renting these kinds of machines were through the roof!

"Tsk, tsk, tsk!"

"The doll is good, but why should I rent it? Isn't it nice to just buy one?"

"Also, I would never know how many people have used this thing. Although the parts can be changed or sanitized for the next customer, it still feels disgusting!"

Mo Fan shook his head.

He was hesitant. Should he buy a machine doll or hire a housekeeper?

In the end, he decided to take a look at them personally!

Mo Fan turned off the computer and went downstairs.

…

After he left the district, a middle-aged woman suddenly ran over from the side.

"Hey, Mo Fan! You finally came out!"

The middle-aged woman came to Mo Fan's side and smiled as if she was looking at a peerless treasure.

"Third Aunt, you're looking for me?"

Mo Fan replied coldly without the enthusiasm of meeting a relative.

This middle-aged woman was Mo Fan's third aunt, Luo Yuqi.

When his parents were still around, he had some interactions with these relatives.

But after his parents went missing, none of his relatives helped!

It was as if they were afraid of offending anyone, they all avoided him and Mo Han.

If not for the savings left by his parents, he and Mo Han would have starved to death.

This Luo Yuqi was a money-grubber.

They had not seen each other for a few years but now, she suddenly came to look for him.

Mo Fan could easily guess why she was looking for him.

She must have heard that he had bought a house somewhere and came to get money from him.

"That's right, Mo Fan. I've been waiting here for a long time just to meet you."

"Tell me, why are you looking for me?"

Mo Fan interrupted Luo Yuqi and became a little impatient.

"Mo Fan, your cousin is about to get married…"

"The other party wants a betrothal gift of two million dollars. Our family really can't afford that much money. I have no choice but to be thick-skinned and ask you for help. Can you lend me some money?"

Luo Yuqi smiled at first, but then her smile disappeared and she became solemn.

She acted as if it was real!

As expected!

How greedy. Two million?

Why don't you go and rob a bank?

Forget the fact that she was rich in the first place—even if she was poor—he would not lend her anything!

Besides, his cousin, Mo Yu, was not a good person either.

He dyed his hair in weird colors and frequented those peculiar bars, how could such a person find a wife?

You want to swindle my money? Dream on!

Mo Fan cleared his throat and replied, "Third Aunt, don't let him get married if your family doesn't have money!"

"It's useless even if you come to look for me. I just bought this house, where would I get the money to lend it to you!"

"I think your son is quite capable. Why do you need to help him?"

"Third Aunt, if you really don't have money, I still have a few hundred dollars of living expenses. Do you want me to lend you a hundred dollars?"

When Luo Yuqi heard Mo Fan's words, her expression changed immediately.

"Mo Fan, I, your Third Aunt, came to beg you here because I think highly of you. How dare you speak to your elder like this?"

"Hehe, elder? I don't have such an elder!" Mo Fan snorted and turned to leave.

Luo Yuqi watched Mo Fan leave and gritted her teeth in extreme anger!

She took a few deep breaths before leaving.

…

When Luo Yuqi arrived at a nearby corner, there were seven to eight people dressed in clothes of various colors waiting there.

One of the gangsters immediately asked, "Mom, how is it?"

"What do you think? Your cousin is very arrogant. Don't bother me with your matters in the future! I'm going back." Luo Yuqi glanced at the cyborgs behind him.

She shook her head and left.

After hearing Luo Yuqi's words, Mo Yu knew that his Plan A had failed.

Now, he could only start Plan B.

Mo Yu immediately knew that Mo Fan had bought a house.

This was because he often loitered around the vicinity of the Royal Ocean Court.

Mo Yu's impression of his cousin Mo Fan had always been that he was an especially easy target to bully.

Mo Fan suddenly became rich and even bought a house.

This discovery made him very uncomfortable.

Furthermore, he had bought one at the Royal Ocean Court.

He was doing even better than him!

This made him even more uncomfortable!

"Brothers, follow the plan!"

"Let's go and meet my cousin!"

Mo Yu led the cyborgs forward.

…

Mo Fan did not take what just happened to heart at all.

He went straight to the nearby talent market.

Because it was not too far away, Mo Fan did not take a taxi.

Instead, he chose the nearest route and headed there.

When he entered a deserted path, however, Mo Fan became alert.

He took a closer look.

He was in the middle of two tall buildings, in between a rather long alley.

Both sides were filled with miscellaneous items that no one bothered to clean up.

There was just enough space for one person to pass through.

He would be able to reach his destination quickly by passing through here.

Mo Fan realized that the coast was clear, and thus—he continued forward.

But when he reached the middle of the alley, he suddenly stopped.

Then, he stared ahead and shouted, "Come out! Stop hiding!"

Not far ahead, seven or eight cyborgs appeared from the junk pile on both sides.

Seeing Mo Yu at the front, Mo Fan suddenly understood something.

"Cousin, long time no see!" Mo Yu came straight to Mo Fan. His face looked enthusiastic.

"Take your hand away!" Mo Fan narrowed his eyes and stared at the hand on his shoulder.

Mo Yu's arm was now a mechanical arm.

His bones were made out of metal and many electronic components.

He had no real skin on the surface of his arm.

A modified arm like this was dozens of times stronger than a normal arm.

It could easily penetrate a steel plate that was a few centimeters thick.

Many people had modified different places of their bodies. It seemed to have become a trend as technology rapidly advanced.

These people called themselves—Cyborgs.

Mo Fan never had a good impression of these people who transformed their own bodies for power.

"Cousin, don't be so distant. We haven't seen each other for so many years. I just want to get closer to you!"

Mo Yu did not take down his mechanical hand.

Instead, he patted once again, causing Mo Fan to lose his balance.

"If you want to fight, just say it!"

Mo Fan's fist landed directly on Mo Yu's abdomen.

Mo Yu's body arched like a shrimp before he flew out.

When Mo Yu fell to the ground, he held his stomach and screamed.

"Ugh, f*ck!"

"Brothers, attack!"

After hearing the order, the other cyborgs rushed up without hesitation.

Mo Fan stared blankly at his fist.

Even though he knew that his strength seemed to have greatly improved after playing Boundless World, he did not expect it to increase by this much.

Mo Yu, who had turned into a cyborg, was heavier than an average person. But despite all of that, he was actually sent flying by a single punch from Mo Fan.

Looking at the cyborgs coming for him, Mo Fan realized that at least two parts of their bodies have been modified.

These cyborgs seemed to enjoy violence very much, and they did not get scared even when they saw how Mo Fan sent Mo Yu flying.

A few of them had their legs modified and moved extremely fast.

They rushed over to Mo Fan.

After knowing how strong he was, Mo Fan did not back down and started attacking the closest cyborg.

However, he could only hit one or two people at a time.

When these people rushed up, they directly beat him up together without any sense of shame.

After some mechanical arms struck him, Mo Fan could not help but grimace.

He felt as if his bones were fractured.

F*ck!

These scumbags!

Mo Fan ignored the injuries that he sustained and increased the speed of his punches.

A left hook and a right horizontal kick!

The strength of these cyborgs was not as great as his.

Soon, they were all lying on the ground, wailing in pain.

The spectator Mo Yu saw how Mo Fan unleashed his might. He was so shocked by what happened that he hurriedly got up and ran away.

The other cyborgs also scrambled away after seeing their boss turned tail and ran.

Mo Fan looked at the cyborg who was still lying on the ground.

He shouted fiercely. "Get lost!"
