Under one person, cross the heavens and enter the group chat

Chapter 149 It's not me who's wrong, it's the world that's wrong!
After bidding farewell to Jack, David went back home first, then changed into a light sportswear and went out lightly again to start a night run.

This kind of dress can be regarded as a maverick in the night of this city.

After all, this is Night City where even the rats running by the side of the road are shot twice.

Even if you are an Arasaka executive, if you dare to go out at night without bodyguards, your organs will have to be in the scavenger's refrigerator tomorrow.

However, for David, who had already fully armed himself with the magic weapon forged by divine machine, this was obviously not a problem to worry too much about.

If those scavengers who specialize in people's waists set their sights on him, he will definitely not be the one who lost his waist.

Leaving the apartment building, putting on his earphones, David ran wildly on the colorful streets illuminated by the neon lights of Night City.

Feeling that the qi in the body began to become lighter and lighter with the operation of the human body's magnetic field, David's speed also became faster and faster with the rotation of the exercises.

The slight tiredness in his body after a day's sleep also began to fade from his body along with the pace of running.

The only pity is that although the night in Night City is bright, it is a bit too noisy.

The colorful blue and pink neon lights are constantly flickering in the deep night sky like the flickering stage lights in a dance hall.

The complicated billboards and noisy advertisements are like bombs, constantly attacking every passerby passing by the street.

"Try our newest delicacy!"

"Take your partner to enjoy the world you have never experienced before, what are you still hesitating about?"

"Big cannon, all night, every night!"

Before he knew it, in order to avoid these noisy advertisements, David had already run to the sea wall to the south.

Compared with the urban area, the pedestrians here are much rarer, and only a few homeless people or street kids can be seen in groups living a boring nightlife.

Maybe some people showed a little unkind expression when they saw David's thin figure, but after a young bird was inexplicably headshot the moment he made a move.

Everyone put away their small thoughts, obviously already knowing that David is definitely not someone they can provoke.

It's true that the original organs can be sold for a good price, but at least they have to have life flowers.

With the silence of these street gangsters, this seawall trail was completely quiet.

Only the refreshing sea breeze was left, caressing his face with a slightly salty breath.

Beside David is the ocean as deep as ink on one side, and the neon city with flashing lights on the other.

Still and moving, there is quite a bit of artistic conception.

Of course, if the electronic waste and all kinds of plastic waste piled up on the beach can be blocked.

This scene should also be more charming.

But even so.

Compared with being in that bustling city, the current environment made David feel more relaxed, as if he had broken through the invisible shackles in Night City.

Accompanied by the music in the earphones, the drum beats gradually became denser.

Even with David's already accelerated figure, he accelerated again along with the sea wind.

For Lucy.

Night running on the seawall has become an indispensable habit for her after she came to Night City.

Only when she immersed herself physically and mentally in the night run, could she escape from the past experience of being constantly hunted down.

Perhaps it is precisely because she is the most able to run among the children raised by Arasaka that she has survived until now.

But obviously.

Lucy's night run tonight couldn't be as flat as it used to be.

After David and Jack left, she asked the team members about the strange boy.

In the end, she was also a little surprised by the information she got.

This boy named David is much younger than her.

But even so, the other party's mission history is absolutely luxurious.

Go down to the orangutan gang to fight hand-to-hand with the group of muscular brothers, and go up to biotechnology alone to steal key information.

The other party can actually complete it efficiently alone.

And most importantly.

She learned from Mann and the others that, except for the basic communication prosthetic body, almost all of the rest of the young man was original.

This made Lucy think about it and couldn't figure it out. Could it be that no matter how strong the body is, it can compare with those enemies who are full of combat prosthetics?

But on this point, Lucy soon realized her ignorance.

Seeing that familiar figure, like a gust of wind, it passed by her side again and again.

The girl who thought she was running fairly fast fell into deep doubts about herself, and then stopped at the fence at the end of the seawall.

While lighting the slender cigarette, Lucy watched David turn back from her side again and speed up.

Seven or eight?

It was really hard for Lucy to recall how many times David surpassed her just now.

But no matter what, David has completed four or five times the amount of exercise she did in one run.

They are also people who haven't done much physical modification, how can the gap be so big?
Lucy didn't understand, she really didn't understand.

Seeing David who finally stopped and began to zigzag to adjust the cycle, Lucy finally couldn't help asking.

"I said, did you really not install a bionic prosthesis in your body?"

Just the outrageous posture of jumping higher than the ankle reinforcement and running faster than the reinforcement of the tendon.

It is really difficult for people to have too much connection with the original body.

"Oh, it's Lucy, I think I need to remind you a little bit before answering your question."

"Smoking is bad for your health, especially second-hand smoke."

While talking, David flicked his fingers and used the repulsion of the human body's magnetic field to completely extinguish the cigarette butt exuding nicotine in Lucy's hand, and then continued with a foul breath.

"For me, exercising my body to the extreme is far more useful than installing a bionic prosthesis."

Seeing another move by David that she couldn't understand, Lucy shook her head after a while and threw the extinguished cigarette butt into the trash can.

"It's interesting to say that from your mouth."

It's all 2077, and David is probably the only one who says smoking is harmful to health.

But think of the other party's current training appearance, as well as the incomprehensible running speed and snapping fingers just now.

On the contrary, Lucy felt that it was not so difficult to accept.

"So are you practicing kung fu? It's really strange to see this scene in Night City."

Looking at David, who was constantly adjusting his posture in a half-stretched horse, Lucy propped his chin and waited with great interest for the other party's reply.

However, David obviously didn't reveal too much about Lucy's temptation, and just asked with a smile.

"Isn't it strange that you, a hacker, come out to run at night?"

He has a human body magnetic field exercise that can strengthen his body and increase his energy. What about Lucy?
It can't be to increase the probability of cutting the enemy into pieces with molecular wires.

Regarding David's rhetorical question, Lucy did not have the idea of ​​telling her past in full.

Just letting the sea breeze blow her delicate face, the silver-white hair shone with colorful neon reflections in the air.

"It seems that we are all people with secrets."

However, David did not intend to continue on the topic of Lucy.

He knew about Lucy's past, but the other party didn't know his difference.

This is not a peer-to-peer conversation.

What's more, their current relationship is not good enough to reveal secrets to each other.

"People who don't have any secrets don't have a good life in Night City."

Looking at the moon that had disappeared into the dark clouds, David finally stopped his practice and got up to leave.

"Rest well, Lucy, showing too much sentimentality in Night City is definitely not a good thing."

Although I know the relationship between the girl in front of me and myself in the original plot.

But in reality, Lucy is just a beautiful woman he met for the second time.

But looking at the figure of David leaving.

Lucy changed the question and asked again.

"What about you, David? What you do has nothing to do with what you say."

"Don't tell me that you only help Sasha for your own benefit, so what are you thinking?"

After entering Night City.

Everything Lucy sees is telling her.

In Night City, don't trust anyone, and don't show any weakness.

But after meeting the Mann team and David.

However, she found that it seemed that such a situation was not an absolute thing.

David was able to do this for a woman who had no blood relationship and had not even known him for a few days.

This was really beyond her comprehension.

She wants an answer.

And listening to Lucy's words, David also slowly stopped.

Yeah what is he thinking?

If you haven't recovered the memory of your previous life, if you haven't seen the normal world, if you don't know what normal friendship looks like.
But after knowing this, it is almost impossible.

David knew that the world was sick.

He is deeply angry with all the oppression this sick world has brought to him and those he wants to protect.

Thinking of this, David paused, then took a breath and turned back to Lucy's answer.

"I helped Sasha both for the benefit and for myself."

"But I know it's not me who needs to be corrected, but this sick world!"

"I don't think you will accept my idea. After all, you haven't seen what that normal society looks like with your own eyes, but one day I will let everyone know what that normal world looks like."

For David, saving Sasha is also saving himself.

He has been bound by this damn society for too long, if even Sasha can't save him, how can he change the world!

But ideals belong to ideals, but it is another matter to tell ideals to people who are not particularly familiar with them.

After watching the upright talk, David realized a trace of embarrassment and quickly slipped away.

Lucy couldn't help but leaned on the railing and slightly curved the corners of her mouth in a nice way, and then smoked a cigarette again.

Is it the society that is wrong?

I really dare to say it.

Thinking of this, Lucy silently lit a cigarette, and then thought of David's statement just now that smoking is harmful to health.

After staring at the flickering cigarette butts in a daze for a moment, she then stamped out the cigarette and looked up at the moonlight that was still bright behind the dark clouds.

A changed new world?
if you can.

She didn't want David to tell a lie.

Silent all night.

After a night of recharging their batteries, the well-prepared Mann team and David started to split up at the same time.

And after Mann and his party arrived at the designated place, they finally met the foul-mouthed soil guide that Jack called, and then followed the other party and quickly marched towards the red ocher tribe.

The so-called bad land refers to the vast and desolate plains outside Night City.

Scattered homeless tribes occupy this place, and rampant resource piracy, burning oil wells and shocking pollution constitute the daily life of Badlands.

It can be said that even the chaotic Night City is set off like a lush oasis on this desolate land.

But to those who know how, the Badlands are a gold mine of opportunity.

This obviously includes Panan Palmer.

Panan is a vagabond, but perhaps it is more appropriate to call him a "former vagabond" now.

She and the family leader Saul couldn't get along, so she left Adkadobon and came to Night City to try her luck as a mercenary.

But for the unfamiliar Night City, the bad land where Panan lived and grew up is obviously more under her control.

On the bad soil desert with flying sand all over the sky.

A modified camouflage off-road pickup was galloping along with the thunderous roar of the engine.

In the driver's seat of the off-road pickup truck, a wild girl wearing jeans and a tactical belt belt was stepping on the gas pedal firmly.

The wheat-colored skin and the tight clothing that wraps the beautiful curves make this girl who grew up in the bad land show a strange charm.

"Wuhu Wuhu! This is so cool!!!"

It was different from the pale motion sickness of other passengers.

Rebecca was deeply stimulated by the outstanding performance of Panan, a big baby.

"Hey, no matter how good you are, Tingwei is my best work!"

While talking, Panan observed the four people behind him through the rearview mirror and then continued.

"By the way, I haven't introduced yet. I am Panan, and you should be the Mann team that David mentioned, right?"

Mann, who was sitting in the back row, resisted the feeling of vomiting, and answered while covering his mouth.

"Yes, we are the Mann team."

But before confirming their identities, they were pulled into the car directly.

Where did David find such a tiger girl?

After hearing the affirmative answer, Panan nodded slightly and then explained the current situation to everyone behind him.

"Okay, I don't have time to write down these miscellaneous names. If David hadn't said that this incident was related to the company's scumbags, I wouldn't be bothered to take care of this."

Listening to Panan's wild speech with a bunch of silenced words, everyone at this moment understands how correct Jack's summary of her is.

"Okay, let's talk about the details and process of the current mission? I didn't expect to be like a headless chicken after the Red Ocher Tribe. That's really fucking fucked up."

Facing the guide that David had found for them, Mann had no intention of hiding the news.

"The specific situation will be arranged after we get the Red Ocher Tribe. However, according to the information given by David, it can be judged that the infection of the Red Ocher Tribe has nothing to do with infectious diseases. The specific situation will be analyzed after seeing the corpse."

After all, if it is an infectious disease, it is absolutely impossible for the red ocher tribe, a small gathering place of more than 1000 people, to be the only ones to suffer.

In order to deceive people, biotechnology obviously will not easily create large-scale deaths.

Therefore, the best way is to first arrive at the red ocher tribe, and have their professional instruments and perspectives inspect the situation on site again before making specific arrangements.

And listening to everyone's task arrangement, Panan did not have any objections.

"Oh, look for evidence from the corpse, right? If you have some brains, then go to Red Ocher to see the corpse first, and then make specific arrangements."

"Huh? Need to use your brain? Brain work is the most boring thing!"

Rebecca pouted while holding the gun, then continued.

"By the way, Panan, how long will it take to arrive? Although the car ride is quite exciting, it would be happier to shoot those company dogs."

"Hahahaha, you're right, you have to blow the head of the company dog! Okay, then I'll speed up, half an hour oh no, I'll be there in 15 minutes!"

"Ah! Speed ​​up!!!"

"Ah? Still accelerating!?. Vomit!!!"
