Chapter 262: Aspirations to Become a Big Shot
Chapter 262: Aspirations to Become a Big Shot
"Do you need my help?"
Ke Ling asked Panam and the others with a smile, he didn't mind helping.
This proposal made Panam hesitate for a moment. She looked at Ke Ling. The expression on the other's face was so sincere that it made people unable to doubt it.
Moreover, Panam knew clearly that there was really no need for others to steal their things in this way. If they didn't want to give it, they could just give less at the beginning. Anyway, the distribution was decided by Ke Ling and the others, and they had no say.
"Okay, thank you very much, Devil."
Panam accepted Ke Ling's kindness and spoke straightforwardly. She didn't like to think about things too complicatedly. She felt that Ke Ling would not cheat them, so she simply accepted it and didn't give Mitch, Scorpion and others a chance to refuse.
"."
Mitch Anderson and Scorpion looked at each other, both of them had helpless expressions, but Ke Ling was the person responsible for distributing the spoils after all, so they could only agree with Panam's idea. If Ke Ling didn't want to share, there was really no need to do that.
The robot troops were standing aside, and everyone saw their terrifying fighting power. Although everyone brought people with them, they didn't think their fate would be much better than those night-wandering ghosts.
Strength is power. At this moment, the right to speak is not in their hands at all, so they can only let Ke Ling make arrangements.
The same was true for several other wanderer tribes. They were all very honest and handed all their things over to Ke Ling to deal with.
"Let's go."
Ke Ling naturally understood what they were thinking, but he didn't explain. He just packed up his things and walked outside.
After leaving the research institute, everyone returned along the same route. Ke Ling accompanied them and brought all the distributed items to them. V, Jack, Sasha, Lucy and others also accompanied them. They visited all the wanderer families in the badlands around Night City.
"Mr. Devil, next time if you need anything just call us."
Along the way, this was the phrase Ke Ling and his friends heard the most. These wanderers spoke with such sincerity and heartfelt feelings.
Everyone was naturally happy after getting the benefits, and a little sacrifice was nothing. The casualties among the wanderers were usually quite high, and they might not come back after going on a long journey. But the gains this time were much greater than those from a long journey.
Ke Ling naturally agreed to all of them, and asked Jack, V and others to leave their contact information, mainly to let the wanderers be able to contact Jack Wells. Ke Ling planned to train Jack well, as Jack had the ability to take charge.
"Thanks, Devil. Do you want to come to our family camp and sit down?"
The last stop was the Bright family. After handing over all the things, Panam extended an invitation to Ke Ling and the others.
"Yes, Mr. Devil, come and sit down. We will also do our part as hosts."
Saul Bright also came over to try to persuade him to stay. This guy was not very old, about thirty years old, but he looked very calm and steady, and it was obvious that he was a man with a lot of ideas in his mind.
"No, we have to go back to the city."
Ke Ling smiled and waved his hand, and did not bother the Bright family. Looking at Saul Bright's expression, one could tell that he must have a lot of questions to ask Panam, Mitch, Scorpion and the others.
"Yes, yes, we are in a hurry to go back, so we won't stay any longer."
Jack said in agreement, and V also said a few words in agreement.
Seeing what they said, Sol Bright and Panam couldn't keep them any longer and could only send them away. Sol Bright even brought his men to escort them for some distance before returning.
Seeing Saul Bright and the others walking away, Jack finally breathed a sigh of relief. This Saul Bright was too enthusiastic. If they continued to walk forward, they would almost reach Night City. But Jack actually didn't want to go back. He wanted to continue having fun in the Badlands.
"This battle was really exciting. I will stay here to help Old Mosby and the others to wipe out the night ghosts. You guys can go back first."
Jack looked at Ke Ling and V and the others. He obviously hadn't had enough fun yet and wanted to stay in the Badlands for a while longer. Of course, it wasn't that he liked the Badlands so much, he just liked the feeling of being treated like a big shot. These wanderers really gave him face.
"As you wish."
Ke Ling didn't care. If he was willing to stay and help, he could stay. It was not an easy job to look for the remnants of the night-wandering ghosts everywhere.
".Then you stay here by yourself."
V obviously thought of this. She didn't want to eat sand in the bad land, nor did she want to establish any personality in front of these wanderers. Instead of wasting time, she might as well go back to Night City and have some comfort. She had just made a lot of money, so she had to go back and have a few more drinks.
"We have to go back too."
Lucy and Sasha had even less reason to stay, and in the end only Jack was left, but this was within Jack's expectations.
In fact, Jack didn't stay just to enjoy the feeling of being a "big shot". Ke Ling was intentionally paving the way for them, allowing them to control more power and even integrate the power of the wanderers. Jack could still feel this.
He also wanted to work hard, hang out among the wanderers more, learn more about their behavior and thinking patterns, connect them with interests, and intimidate them with force. This was indeed very simple, but he still wanted to go deeper into the wanderers.
"be careful."
Ke Ling nodded and said goodbye to Jack. He was not too worried about Jack. This guy could get along well anywhere. His generous character made him feel at home among wanderers. And those night-wandering ghosts were definitely no threat to him.
"Don't let yourself fail to become a big shot and then capsize in the gutter."
V complained, which earned him a middle finger from Jack. He then rode away on his motorcycle, leaving a trail of dust all the way to the Red Ochre Family. The Red Ochre Family were Colin's diehard fans, the most reliable family, and the ones who respected him the most, so Jack planned to go find old Mosby and his son to work together.
"Let's go back."
Ke Ling changed a car and put away the warhorse. It was not easy to enter Night City with this car. It would be easier to enter the city with a business car like Thrace.
Sitting in the driver's seat, Ke Ling drove the three girls all the way into Night City. Of course, they took the road to Watson District. Because the bridge from Watson District to the urban area was strictly checked, there was not much inspection between Watson District and the Badlands.
Anyway, the people in Watson District are not considered human beings. Watson District is already very chaotic. No matter how much smuggling, illegal immigration, and a mixed crowd there are, it doesn't matter. As long as the bridge is closed and Watson District is isolated, it will not affect the urban area of Night City at all, and will not affect the distinguished corporate bosses.
Therefore, Watson District is also the most suitable place for messy people to hide, and this place highlights the ability of each person. The car stopped in front of the Afterlife Bar. It was already late when we returned to Night City, but the Afterlife Bar was still open and bustling with people. Cyber wanderers gathered here to talk and chat.
"Let me just say this, we made a lot of money this time! You guys can be envious!"
As soon as Ke Ling, V, Sasha, and Lucy walked into the Laisheng Bar, they heard a familiar voice. They looked towards the source of the voice and saw that it was indeed Mann, who was drinking and bragging.
Beside Mann, Dolio, Pyrrha, Rebecca, Qiwei, and even Falco were there, so it was quite a gathering.
“Is this a big profit?”
Ke Ling greeted Mann and his team with a smile. Because of Sasha, their two teams were quite familiar with each other.
"That's right, we did something big!"
Pira came over with a giggle and started talking to Ke Ling, arm in arm.
Ke Ling had previously gone to Pira to learn the professional skills of a "technical expert" and was very familiar with these two weird siblings.
"Don't be complacent, Pyrrha. Our big guys definitely don't earn as much as they do. Otherwise, why would Sasha be willing to work with them?"
When he saw Ke Ling, Mann's expression changed instantly and he said something unhappily. It was obvious that he was somewhat dissatisfied with the fact that Sasha always followed them.
Of course, Mann doesn't have any special feelings for Sasha. He takes good care of all the members of his team, not just Sasha. He also has a good relationship with Dolio.
"Ahem, Mann, don't say that."
Mann's words made Sasha feel awkward. After all, she was the one who made the decision. Mann's words seemed to be talking about her, as if she was the kind of person who would work for whoever earned more money.
The reason why she chose to work with Jack and V was not because of Ke Ling, but because Qi Wei was free. Compared to working with Qi Wei, she preferred to work with Lucy. Anyway, there were hackers on both sides, so she could go either side.
She has been getting along very well with Lucy recently, so her preference is naturally obvious. However, if Qiwei is not free, she will definitely come to Mann to help.
The principle is the same. If Lucy is not free, she will definitely come to Ke Ling to help.
If there were no hackers on either side, she would choose Ke Ling. After all, Ke Ling and his team helped her deal with the biotechnology company, which was enough for her to choose between the two.
"Haha, just kidding, don't take it seriously. How did you harvest this time?"
Mann laughed to ease the awkwardness. Although he looked as big and strong as Jack Wells and looked like a big brother type of character, he was also as considerate as Jack. The two were very similar in that they were both the type of people who could take care of others and deal with things.
After the joke was made, Mann immediately tried to ease the embarrassment. He was just a little bit resentful in his heart, feeling that his teammates were robbed. In fact, he did not have any ill feelings towards Ke Ling and the others.
"We have made a great harvest. We have killed all the night-wandering ghosts in one fell swoop."
V spoke directly, she had done a big thing, so of course she had to publicize it. This could be considered a big event. Who in Night City had not dealt with night-walking ghosts?
Especially for Cyber Rogues like them, Nighthaunt is an old acquaintance. If you haven't fought with Nighthaunt, you would be embarrassed to say that you are in Night City. Nighthaunt is truly a person who is hated by everyone and they dare to touch anyone.
"Fuck?! Is this true?"
When V said this, everyone was immediately surprised. Mann opened his mouth wide with an expression of disbelief. Even Pyrrha, who had been chattering to Ke Ling, stopped talking and looked at V with an exaggerated expression, expressing disbelief.
"Of course it's true. Why would I lie to you? And is this something you can brag about? You can find out if you just walk around the city. If I brag about this, won't it be exposed immediately?"
Everyone sat in the booth, and after V ordered the drinks, she started to talk loudly. Before, she had complained about Jack enjoying the pleasure of being a big shot outside the city, but now that he was back in the city, she couldn't wait to start promoting it.
Ke Ling could only smile helplessly at the side. This street girl and street boy were indeed the same. They all wanted to become famous, become big shots, and do something earth-shattering. There was nothing to say. This was what they had always been pursuing.
As V started shouting loudly, more and more Cyberdrifters noticed this place. Someone actually claimed to have killed the Night Haunter, so of course everyone wanted to join in the fun.
Ke Ling noticed that even old lady Rogge came over. She was holding a wine glass with a smile on her face. The crowd automatically made way for her and let her walk to the innermost position.
"Wow, Roger is here."
Everyone was very surprised. It was not uncommon to meet Rogge in the Next Life Bar, but it was difficult to attract Rogge's attention.
"Go on, I'll listen."
As Roger spoke, he nodded to Ke Ling. She and Ke Ling also knew each other. They met through Tas Santiago.
Speaking of which, it is still unknown what the outcome of Tas Santiago and his team's adventure was. Anyway, they had no chance of finding Johnny Silverhand's body, because the Los Alamos laboratory had been emptied by Ke Ling, so it would be in vain for them to go there.
Ke Ling narrowed his eyes and found that Rogge looked at him with awe. This awe was a little strange because he had never shown his strength to Rogge, which made him feel confused.
Could it be that Tas Santiago and his team had already been to Los Alamos?
If this is the reason, then the cause of this awe is very clear. Ke Ling understood it in his heart. When Tas Santiago and others saw the empty Los Alamos Laboratory, they would probably think of him. After all, it was from them that he learned about the specific situation of the Los Alamos Laboratory.
The reason why they didn't go with Ke Ling was because they were worried that Ke Ling had other intentions and they were afraid of being implicated by Ke Ling.
"Rogge, I'm afraid you won't be able to do the night ghost business anymore."
Facing a senior like Rogge, V was not at all nervous. She raised her glass and spoke with great enthusiasm.
"Then I should be happy. Those bastards have finally been dealt with. Let me toast to you. This is a just act of getting rid of harm to the people."
Rogge narrowed his eyes in a smile, and she cooperated very well, raising her glass to toast V.
In fact, Roger has already believed what V said. She doesn't know whether V has the ability or not, but if she is with this Devil, then she can definitely do it. She believes in Ke Ling's power.
Ke Ling was able to empty out a place like Los Alamos, so how difficult would it be to wipe out a night-wandering ghost?
