Chapter 170: Chapter 171: Bionics Restoration Surgery
At the memorial service, Captain Zhao read the eulogy in a low voice, “…Death is the end of life, but their courage will be forever sung by us.”
“It’s a shame we can’t even find their bodies, no matter how much we praise them, they can’t hear us anymore. But our lives must go on, carrying a part of them with us.”
“Let us forever remember their names and observe a five-minute silence in their honor.”
Zhang Yuan bowed his head below, letting out a light sigh. It was hard to imagine what it must have been like to wait for death alone in such a place.
Suddenly, he felt very fortunate to have escaped from that unknown, great fear. Such high-tech, related to dimensions, was like magic to humans.
After 5 minutes, the entire memorial service ended.
The mourners quietly left, leaving only the family and friends crying softly.
Zhang Yuan started up his electric wheelchair and left the room.
“Mr. Zhang, please come this way, your bionic legs are ready,” said a biologist softly to Zhang Yuan at that moment.
“So soon?” Zhang Yuan said in surprise.
“They were ready-made in the lab and have been researched for a long time. Now you are willing to be an experimental product… no, a volunteer, which is absolutely splendid. If you are ready, we can proceed with the surgery immediately.”

Zhang Yuan shuddered and took another glance at the doctor. He felt he could not endure the days without his legs, “Okay… I’ll come right now.”
Out the door, take a left turn, then go up an elevator, and there’s the hospital. At the entrance to the operating room, Lin Xuanyuan rubbed her hands together and with a very odd smile said, “I’ve heard it might hurt a bit, you’ll have to hang in there… I can only watch from the side.”
Doctors can’t perform surgery on their family members, that’s the rule, and Lin Xuanyuan wasn’t a specialist in this field either.
“Do you think I’m afraid of pain?” Zhang Yuan patted his chest, “I can even cut my own flesh without issue.”
“Yeah, just don’t scream out loud during it!”
But soon, the agony of the installation far exceeded his imagination!
Zhang Yuan didn’t know what the damned biologists had applied to his legs, purportedly some life-stimulating drug for neurons, it felt like millions of ants biting at the wound!
Within just moments, Zhang Yuan felt his teeth were about to be ground to dust.
Sweat dripped onto the operating table from his forehead. Shivering, Zhang Yuan could barely bear it any longer.
He forced out a sentence from his throat: “Doctor, can’t you give me a bit more anesthesia?”
“No, Mr. Zhang, please bear with it a little longer. Reactivating the neurons can’t be done with too much anesthesia. Otherwise, the results might be poor, and if they reconnect improperly, you’ll have to endure this pain again.”
He saw Lin Xuanyuan hiding to one side, her eyes filled with worry but also incessantly giggling, not sure if she was reveling in his misfortune or expressing some other emotion.
He cursed in his mind, “Ecstatic, right!”
After about four hours, the intense pain finally subsided.
Zhang Yuan was exhausted, gasping for air on the operating table, his body felt as if it had been paralyzed.
It was a nightmare!
A nightmare on par with that nine-dimensional space!
After regaining a bit of strength, Zhang Yuan sat up and felt his legs. They felt alright, not too different from normal legs.
Then he took a few steps on the floor, slightly staggering and not very accustomed to it, but without any major discomfort or pain.
Faced with this miraculous surgery, he quickly cast aside the recent suffering.
Having been confined to a wheelchair, even though Lin Xuanyuan didn’t look down on him, Zhang Yuan had begun to despise himself.
Regaining his legs gave him a strong sense of groundedness.
“Technology… truly amazing! Biologists, magnificent!” he praised sincerely in his heart, “If such surgeries could become widespread, there would no longer be disabled people.”
“Mr. Zhang Yuan, your instability comes from not having fully adjusted the settings yet,” said the doctor in a white coat, handing him a remote control: “The common stride range of bionic legs needs manual adjustment. We haven’t tuned the settings to the right parameters yet, so walking might be a bit unsteady. You can adjust it to your liking…”
“Oh, okay, okay, thank you!”
Zhang Yuan took the remote, continuously adjusting the relevant power.
His thighs were still human, but the lower legs and joints had been replaced with bionics. If the power wasn’t coordinated properly, being either too strong or too weak, it was easy to have an unstable walk.
After about half an hour, Zhang Yuan had mostly adjusted to his preferred power level and stride, and his walk became more stable. He jumped forcefully and landed smoothly on the ground.
He was already quite satisfied with the result.
Most importantly, the bionic legs still had almost the same sensation as the original, able to feel pain and itchiness.
“It even has a certain memory capacity and will record your habits. After some time of use, it will become smoother.”
Turning around, Zhang Yuan asked with a smile, “The emergence of the Bionics School is indeed not without reason. What’s the maximum power it can adjust to? Have I become a superman?”
“Dream on if you want to be a superman!” Lin Xuanyuan looked him over for a while: “The maximum power is about 5 times that of a human. Mainly the energy system is the limitation. If the output power is too high, it can generate a lot of heat.”
“It should be using a radioactive decay battery, right?”
Another doctor nodded, “Normally, you only need to change the battery every twenty or thirty years. When it signals an alarm, it can still last about a month. If you enter hibernation state, you need to remove the battery and some parts first, which is a bit troublesome.”
“Anyway, I’ll just use it for now. If there’s a problem, we can adjust it then.”
Having regained health, Zhang Yuan was indeed quite excited and jumped forcefully.
“It seems that the technological transformation of bionics is not as hard to accept as I thought…”
With this thought in mind, Zhang Yuan stepped out of the operating room.
He still had many things to do. Especially research on the High-dimensional Fragment.
As the only survivor, many studies simply couldn’t proceed without him.
Lin Xuanyuan suddenly caught up with him in a series of quick steps, stuttering, “You… should still be careful, don’t get yourself crippled again. Our technology is not yet capable of a full-scale transformation.”
“I know, I know, nothing can kill me!” Zhang Yuan smiled, waving his hand, “Don’t worry, I’m off, bye!”
