Chapter 1911: No Longer Disliked Himself
“Ye Xun, look! This is the wedding gift I prepared for you guys, a mechanical arm. What do you think?” Qi Zhengming smiled as he explained.
The arm looked quite good, but no matter how good the mechanical arm was, it could not be compared to his own original arm.
Ye Xun didn’t feel much while he looked at the mechanical arm in the glass frame. He told him honestly, “Actually, Master Qi, I had never thought to install a prosthetic arm because I am worried it might be very inconvenient after I put it on. Moreover, I am also living quite well right now like this.”
Right now, as long as Huo Sanyan didn’t dislike the fact he didn’t have an arm, he would also no longer dislike himself either.
“I understand. Why don’t you try it? Once you put it on, you will be reluctant to take it off.”
As he was facing Qi Zhengming’s enthusiasm, and because Huo Sanyan also encouraged him to try it, in the end, Ye Xun agreed to try it on.
With Qi Zhengming’s help, Ye Xun was finally able to put on the mechanical arm. Putting it on for the first time took a bit of effort. However, once he was used to it, it would be much better.
After he finished putting on the mechanical arm, it looked as though he grew a new arm. However, it just dangled on the side of his body and it looked like it was only a decoration. It didn’t seem like there were any practical uses for it.
Huo Sanyan looked at the mechanical arm in detail and asked Qi Zhengming curiously, “Master Qi, how do you control this arm? Does it need batteries?”
That one single sentence provoked Qi Zhengming into a hearty laugh. “Hahaha. It doesn’t need batteries and it doesn’t need to be recharged. This is completely controlled through the nerves. Ye Xun, try using your brain to instruct your arm. Concentrate your thoughts.”
Under Qi Zhengming’s guidance, Ye Xun started to try concentrating his thoughts. He wanted to stretch out his hands to grab the apple on the table and thought about this in his head. Not long after, something miraculous happened. The mechanical arm actually listened to his thoughts and lifted itself up to grab the apple on the table.
The experiment was successful!
“Very good! Ye Xun, you did it!”
Ye Xun felt very happy in his heart from being able to instruct the mechanical arm to pick up the apple. “Let me try again.”
He went to grab a cup and also succeeded. He tried a few more small tasks and the mechanical arm could help him accomplish them all perfectly.
“Aim at the rock over there and try shooting.” Qi Zhengming said again.
“…” Ye Xun was surprised. Could it be that this mechanical arm was even equipped with weapons?
Ye Xun operated it with his mind again. He aimed at the rock and as soon his brain received the instruction to shoot, it transmitted it to the arm and a gun suddenly appeared in the arm. It aimed at the rock and, bang, bang, bang, shot a few rounds consecutively.
Ye Xun was extremely excited once he learned about this feature. Right now, he already understood that this wasn’t a simple mechanical arm. Qi Zhengming had already given it many unexpected features.
It was like the arm of an intelligent robot in science fiction. It was very cool.
Ye Xun instantly fell in love with this prosthetic limb. He thanked him. “Master Qi, the arm you made is really too awesome! I am very thankful to you!”
“There is no need to thank me. You sacrificed your own arm to protect the Dragon Kingdom. You are the people’s hero. I should do something for you that is to the best of my abilities. It is nothing. This intelligent arm is only being officially tested today. Once I finish the last few details, I can give it to you.”
“Thank you, thank you!”
Ye Xun thanked him happily. He left Spirit Island with Huo Sanyan, and Qi Zhengming gave his well-wishes for their new married life.
While on the way back, Ye Xun was constantly in an excited mood. Huo Sanyan knew it was because of the mechanical arm. She was also happy for him. “This is great, Ye Xun. Once you have an additional mechanical arm in the future, you might be able to return to how you were when you had two hands.”
“Yeah. I am also happy. Once I have the mechanical arm, I can hug you as much as I want.”
