The Conspiracy of the Elites

Chapter 116: the implant operation

In a brightly lit room, a surgeon worked with a serious expression on his face. His apprentices watched from a distance with shining but focused eyes, as their implants rapidly recorded the procedures that their mentor took.

Hum!! Hum!! Faint rumbling sounds came from a machine nearby, as metal pipes extending from it held the patient tightly to the surgery bed. The metal pipes intertwined neatly like the tentacles of a space monster, as they held the patient firmly in place.

Ptui!! One of the metal pipes finally extended forward, as it carefully dropped the tiny implant into the delicate brain of the patient, making a soft impact sound.

The stitching machine reacted fast, as with the help of the surgeon; it neatly closed back the cut flesh.

Another machine quickly sprayed a brown substance at the newly stitched area of the patients flesh, as the lines left by the stitching machine gradually closed up.

After making sure that he did not miss any procedure, the surgeon finally stood up, leaving the patient. He walked directly to the check-up machine, as he booted it to check the life signals of his patient.

After doing an elaborate scan, he could finally heave a sigh of relief, as he went to the corner to rest. The patients life signals were stable, the implant compatibility was good, and the neural connectivity was without complications.

He finally gave the order through his implant, as the lid of the nearby nutrition cabin slowly opened.

The machine with the metal pipes worked impeccably, as it used its metal pipes to steadily push the patient into the nutrition cabin.

After all these procedures were done, the surgeon finally received the green light that the patients condition was stable. He slowly removed his enhanced sterile gloves and glasses, while turning back to meet his apprentices.

After lecturing them a bit, he finally switched off all the machines, and turned off all the lights, before leaving the implant operation room.

A consciousness levitated in a completely dark world. It was steadily aroused from its inert state, as it tried to comprehend where it was, and what happened to it.

As far as its eyes and senses could see, everything was just darkness. Its slightly invisible but glowing form was the only source of light, in the unending darkness. As it tried without much success to know what was happening, it suddenly felt a pull from an unknown power.

It instinctively tried to resist, but the power pulling at it was far stronger than it could withstand. With a soft pop sound, this consciousness disappeared from this void, like it was never there.

After a long time, Clark finally opened his eyes again, as he slowly took in his surroundings. On seeing his surrounding, his eyes narrowed further in confusion, as he wondered where he was.

Oh, I went to the implanting hospital to get my new implant installed. As he glanced around confused, he suddenly felt a faint sense of remembrance.

This small or better still, faint sense soon encompassed his thoughts, as he gradually started recovering his memories.

I thought I just saw myself in some kind of dark world, was that a dream? After recovering his memories, he soliloquized, as he finally recognized that he was in a nutrition cabin.

He was about to order the nutrition cabin to open, but he immediately paused, as he saw a line of text appearing in his line of sight.

[Ding!! Compatibility with master- 35%..., initiating memory storage program.]

[Ding!! Masters health status: Physical- 56%..., still recovering. Psychological- 89%..., stable. Initiating brain merge program]

What the, before he could question what the hell was happening to him, he suddenly felt a sharp pang of pain in his brain, as he directly fainted.

After what felt like hours, he finally woke up again to see himself in the same nutrition cabin. This time, his brain quickly cleared up, as he started thinking of what happened to him previously.

Before he could think further, the same line of text appeared again in his sight. This time, he was not as startled, as he waited patiently to see what will happen.

[Ding!! Memory storage program initiated, brain merge program initiated. Proceeding to confirm readiness status.]

[Masters health status: Physical- 97%..., stable. Psychological- 98%..., stable.]

[Good evening master, I am the A.I of your implant. My name is A-101, Im now your most loyal companion. After the merging program was initiated, I now became a part of you, and you also became a part of me.]

[Through your new implant, youll have access to a load of new things. And through me, youll have a better means to know your abilities and to track your progress. The list of my abilities is endless. So, you can start familiarizing yourself by asking me to do anything for you.]

Clark was now practically breathless. Wow, really? Not only could this thing project texts into his brain, but it could also talk and say what was written directly to his brain.

He was already suspecting it, but he was still shocked when he knew that this was a result of him getting his new implant. From this short contact with the implants A. I alone, he was already falling in love with it.

Originally, his old implant also has an A.I. But the programmed data in it was too low to perform any meaningful action. He had never communicated with an A. I directly in his brain; the feeling was completely novel to him.

After understanding the situation a little bit, he cautiously communicated with the A. I and demanded his abilities and information to be shone.

[Ding!! Masters status]

Name: Clark Pendragon

Country of allegiance: Spartan republic

Soldier rank: 2nd rank high-grade soldier

Military rank: Sergeant

Weapon mastery: Spear- 72%, Sword- 69%, Gun- 80%

[Any weapon mastery with proficiency below 50% cannot be displayed directly on masters status. You can ask specifically about any weapon, and its mastery will be displayed separately.]

[Ding!! Masters Attributes] Attack power: 99% Attack speed: 90%

Endurance: 88% Decision making: 92% Stamina: 78/100

Health: 98%

[Masters abilities]

Battle arts: The bullet encyclopedia & The frenzied maneuver

Self-created technique: Dragon breaks the ranks

Minor technique: Maelstrom counter-attack

[Evaluation: Master is a unique soldier that has broken through the limiting threshold of his rank. Your strength is at the absolute pinnacle, when placed with all the soldiers of your rank.]

[My usefulness and abilities are too numerous to be explored in a day. My suggestion is that master should slowly dive in here every day, to slowly explore my abilities and how to better use me.]

At this point, Clarks mood was already on cloud 9. His surprise and happiness could not be expressed with words. Since his career started as a soldier, he had never seen such a detailed description of himself and his abilities.

From this short explanation, he already vaguely understood all the uses of his new implant. The first scientists, who came up with the idea, were not wrong after all when they said they were creating a companion.

This thing already passed the level of just a companion; it was now just like an alternate version of him. But one that helps him only, with greater processing power.

He already expected to see some improvement in his attributes, but the extent to which he improved still surprised him. Maelstrom's counter-attack is the minor defensive technique that he used, in his battle against the World dominator.

After suppressing his excitement, he finally asked his new A. I again. Can I change your name? A-101 is too dumb for something as convenient and good as you.

[Yes master, you can change my name to any one of your preference. I can even project suggestions to you if you like.]

Ah, that is possible too? Ok, no need, I will change your name when I get a better and stylish replacement for you.

Command the nutrition cabin to open; Im tired of staying here in this place with limited space to move around. He didnt even finish his command, before the A. I acknowledged it.

The lid of the nutrition cabin slowly opened, as he squinted his eye to adjust to the light intensity in the implant operation room. On noticing the lid of the nutrition cabin sliding open, the lights switched on again, which affected his eyes.

As soon as the lid opened, the implant surgeon received a notification immediately through his implant.

After giving instructions to his apprentices, he moved directly to the operation room to check on his patient. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Clark who sat down with closed eyes, daydreaming.

He smiled, as he immediately knew that the operation was a success. The patient was already interacting with his implants A.I.

Clark opened his eyes, as his implant notified him that the surgeon just entered the room.

Good evening sir, Im grateful for the operation and everything. He could not control himself on seeing the surgeon, as he heaped thanks on him.

First of all, the surgeon had every means to harm him, as he was completely vulnerable throughout the operation. Him coming out safe showed the implant surgeons integrity.

And secondly, having access to such a convenient implant was something he never dreamt of before now. His feelings were complicated; he did not know the right method to express them.

With this huge implant advantage alone, it could ensure the big 5s rule over all the lesser countries and organizations. Their soldiers are equipped with a load of other advantages, but the implant advantage alone can help them wipe out any soldier of the same rank from a lesser country.

The surgeon responded mildly with a smile to his patients thanks, as he advanced to perform another thorough check-up.

After 30 minutes of tinkering with his patients brain, he could finally relax, as no complications emerged. He finally gave the green light, as his patient was discharged 5 minutes later.

Clark smiled brightly, as he drove down the streets, going back to his team apartment. His new implant directly changed the way he perceived things. Anything he was curious about, he would directly receive the answer from his implants A.I.

As they were both connected through a neural network, the A. I was able to sense his thoughts. He finally drove into the team compound, as his teammates came out to welcome him.

Hey, bro how was it? Did the surgeon fry your brain? Did you get a wife in your head? I heard that is what these big 5 soldiers get.

Listening to his friends ridiculous words, his face could not help but bloom into a smile, as he laughed while following them into the house.

He was going to spend this memorable day uniquely with his teammates, as today would likely be the last day that they will be seeing each other.

They were already released; the decision was now on their courts to decide when and where to go to.
