Game world survival starts from Resident Evil 2

Two days later, at the southernmost end of the North District of Watson District, near a construction site under construction.

“Bang bang bang——!!”

Seven or eight whirlpool gangs, each holding different weapons, focused fire on a corner of the construction site.

"What the hell, there are only two or three of them, right!? Get rid of them!"

A strong man holding a light machine gun roared furiously, and the machine gun in his hand kept spitting out tongues of flame as he swept towards the large container in the corner.

Behind him, another Uzumaki Gang diehard bit open a grenade and threw it behind the container with a wave of his hand.

“Try this, it’s powerful!!”

“Boom—!”

There was an explosion and flames and smoke rose.

In the smoke, a Vortex Gang gangster carrying a classic Copperhead kinetic assault rifle cautiously walked towards the container to confirm whether the enemy was dead.

However, when he turned the corner, he found that there was no one behind the container.

Gangster: "!?"

"Be careful, they're not here..."

The gangster turned around and shouted a warning, but only halfway through his words, he felt his prosthetic eyes suddenly blur, electric noises kept ringing in his ears, and his vision was filled with scarlet!

He suddenly raised the Copperhead in his hand, and in the astonished eyes of the other Whirlpool Gang members, he fired at the brawny gunman closest to him!

"Bang bang bang bang-!!"

The strong man roared in pain and was shot twice in the leg. Fortunately, other companions were covering him and he retreated behind the bunker.

The gangster turned his gun around without hesitation and started attacking another companion.

The arms maniac immediately realized the problem and shouted: "We have been hacked!! Coder, track it for me! Find the hacker and burn that son of a bitch!"

While he was speaking, he had already taken out the pneumatic syringe and pierced it into his chest without hesitation, and then he instantly felt a surge of physical strength.

The arms maniac exhaled heavily, then replaced the magazine of the machine gun in his hand, rushed out of the bunker, and together with the remaining companions, beat the gangster who was quickly cracked by "Cyber ​​Psychosis" into a sieve.

"There are actually hackers, CTND!" Looking at the gangster's corpse, Wenhuo cursed wildly, "Where are those people just now? Found..."

Halfway through his words, he suddenly felt his eyes go dark again, and the five prosthetic eyes on his head stopped functioning!

"...!? Damn it! Coder, what the hell are you doing? I didn't ask you to..."

The arms maniac retreated to the bunker and waited for the prosthetic eye to restart, while cursing. But when his prosthetic eyes resumed operation, what he saw stunned him.

The "coders" he calls are the hackers of the Whirlpool Gang. This time they came to perform a mission, and the hacker was at the center.

But now, the coder, who was at the core of the mission, was being held in the hands of a two-and-a-half-meter-tall man wearing a weird black robe like a chicken.

The three "elites" of the Whirlpool Gang who were originally responsible for protecting him had turned into corpses on the ground, and they were mutilated, as if they had been directly crushed by a huge force.

The Uzumaki gang gunfire swallowed hard and muttered: "Fuck!"

Then without any hesitation, he abandoned the three or two companions around him, turned around and ran away!

"Pfft——"

With a muffled sound, a short gun flew from nowhere and pierced his head directly from the side and back. At the same time, several gunshots were heard from the second floor of the building under construction on the left side of the construction site, and the flying bullets killed the last three Whirlpool Gang minions.

Li You turned out from the corner and pulled out the primitive gun from the strong man's arms maniac. On the other side, Aggie protected Sasha and walked out of the unfinished building.

Finally, Yuzu stepped forward and placed the coder she was holding on the ground. And right next to it, there was a van painted with the Uzumaki Gang's mechanical spider logo parked.

"The rest is up to you, Sasha. The required documents should be on the computer." Li You looked at Sasha.

"No problem! It's just a matter of cracking the Uzumaki Gang's computer. It's too easy for me."

Sasha made an "OK" gesture, pulled out a chip from the slot behind the neck of the unconscious Whirlpool Gang coder, then opened the back door of the van, found the computer from inside, connected it, and began to crack it.

"Then this should be like this...download, then clear this part of the record...done!"

It turned out that Sasha was indeed not bragging. She quickly cracked the computer system and downloaded the information needed for the commission into another chip, and finally handed both chips to Li You.

"Here! This should be enough for the business."

"Thanks, Sasha."

Li You took it, and Sasha said with a smile on his face: "No way! You have helped me more than once, and this little thing is nothing."

Li You laughed out loud: "I just gave you a little advice, it's not help."

However, Sasha still stubbornly believed that she owed Li You, and said that she would come back to her next time if anything happened, so Li You had no choice but to agree.

"Okay, the commission has been resolved. Li You, please contact Regina as soon as possible? The chip has been submitted and we are preparing to withdraw. After all, this is the territory of the Whirlpool Gang."

Li You nodded, took out his cell phone, and dialed Regina's number.

"——Li You? Has the commission been completed? Not bad, very efficient."

Regina's image appeared on the screen, and Li You said, "It's done. By the way, we've sorted out the whirlpool gang here. Is all the information you want in the chip, or should it be left at the delivery point?"

"Just leave it at the delivery point. I will end the order after I confirm that the contents are correct."

"Understood."

After hanging up the phone, Li You and a group of people found a delivery instrument nearby that looked a bit like a bank ATM, and deposited the two chips in it.

Not long after that, he received another call from Regina.

"Well done, Li You, you are indeed very good, and the second commission was successfully completed."

Regina in the video had a smile on her face, "I received all the chips, the information is complete, and all the required content is included. The task was completed perfectly."

"To be honest, Li You, I think you have potential. I will be entrusted to you in the future, but don't let me down. The entrustment is over."

After the exchange of greetings, the reward for the mission arrived, which was a full 4,100 euros, which was already very generous for daily commissions.

However, Li You backhand transferred a third of the 1,400 euros to Sasha as her appearance fee.

When Sasha received the transfer prompt, her eyes widened: "Eh? Wait, wait, Li You, I can't take it! Didn't I say I'm here to help you?"

Li You smiled and said, "It's true that I'm asking for your help because I don't have hackers here. In that case, isn't it natural to pay you the appearance fee?"

Sasha was choked for a moment: "It seems... wrong! I told you, this is to thank you for your help. But now, doesn't it become a simple business?"

Li You looked at the dissatisfied Maomao and said seriously: "Sasha, I know your gratitude is not fake, and I also know that you want to help for free."

"But that's why we have to pay. No matter how close the relationship is, we must pay attention to economic issues, and it is necessary to distinguish between public and private. If because I have helped you, I always ask you to help for free, then we The friendship will eventually break up."

Seeing that he had said this, Sasha could only mutter and replied: "...Okay, you are right, we do need to separate."

Seeing her aggrieved expression, Li You smiled and touched her head and said, "Well, no matter who you are, you must remember this, separate public and private matters - so, now that the commission is over, we We are no longer partners. As friends, why don’t you treat us to a meal?”

Sasha's eyes lit up immediately: "Okay! Let's go then!"

Soon, the group of people sat in a fast food restaurant in Kabuki Market and each ordered their meals. Apart from them, there were no other customers in the store, so it was like a private room.

Of course this is not Li Youhao's arrogance. No matter how rich he is, he would never have enough time to do this kind of thing in a fast food restaurant. In fact, it was because Yuzi scared the customers in the store when they entered, and they almost skipped the order collectively.

Unfortunately, because Yuzi blocked the door, none of these people ran away. They had to pay the bill obediently before leaving in a hurry.

As for the boss, although he was a little dissatisfied with the commotion caused by Li You and his group, Yuzi's pressure alone was enough to block all his swear words. In the end, he could only help everyone with their meals in a low profile.

The food sold in this fast food restaurant is barely decent, but when Li You eats his French fries and burgers, he always feels like he is chewing plastic.

Classic Night City flavour.

"When I came in, I thought I heard a customer complaining to the boss that there was a tail in his burger... It's better not to ask about this kind of thing." Li You thought silently in his heart.

On one wall of the fast food restaurant, there are two large-screen TVs, which are also playing programs at this time.

The TV on the right was playing a certain classic underworld advertisement, the one promoting prosthetic bodies.

As for the other piece, it was one of the two most influential local news channels in Night City - WNS NEWS. The male host's face appeared on the screen.

"Hello everyone, welcome to our WNS News, I'm Arif Iqbal. Today, let's focus on local news first."

Hearing this, Sasha, who was originally discussing with Aggie whether French fries tasted more like plastic or protein bars, his eyes lit up and he immediately turned to look at the TV screen.

"...Yesterday, our station reported on the internal information of biotechnology uploaded by an anonymous person, and disclosed their behavior of concealing the side effects of the company's drug 'Pan An Ling' for economic benefits..."

"...It is reported that at the beginning of the development of this drug, biotechnology has confirmed in clinical trials that it can cause neurodegeneration. However, because of its huge profits, biotechnology companies still launched it on the market in 2070...     ..."...According to no According to complete statistics, in the past few years, there have been as many patients with sequelae caused by the use of 'Safe Ling'... However, the biotechnology company used public relations means to suppress all negative news, and it was not disclosed until yesterday.

"...The disclosure of the inside story has had a big impact on the product sales and stock price of biotechnology. As of the broadcast of this news, the stock price of biotechnology has fallen...percentage, and even military technology has also suffered some losses. Influence…"

"...At present, Biotechnology has not responded to this, nor has it stated whether to recall this drug... Our station will continue to follow up on this incident and bring you detailed reports in the future...

"That's it for today's latest report. Night City, we'll see you next time."

Sasha's face was full of excitement, but she still endured it until the news broadcast was over, and then she suddenly grabbed Li You's hand:

"Did you see it? Did you see it?" She shook Li You's hand up and down, "Biotechnology really paid the price for what they did this time!"

Li You smiled: "Yes, this is all your credit."

Previously, what Sasha wanted to talk to Li You about was the inside story of biotechnology she discovered. She told Li You roughly what happened and expressed her doubts.

She did upload the information to N54 before she fell from the building, but afterwards, the news fell into the sea and was never heard from again.

Faced with Sasha's confusion, Li You gave her a few brief reminders, which made her understand the reason, and then suggested that she transfer the information to WNS News.

Li You was also a little surprised and asked Sasha why he chose to discuss this matter with him. Sasha said that it was because she trusted Li You and at the same time did not want to involve the Mann team in this matter-as for Li You and the others, they were already in the game when they rescued Sasha.

But even so, Sasha repeatedly asked Li You if he wanted to hear inside information about the company before telling him everything.

Li You sighed at her concern and was indeed happy for her at the moment.

But after hearing Li You's words, Sasha shook his head: "If you hadn't reminded me that the data should be transferred to WNS, I wouldn't have realized the problem - yes, N54 has cooperation with biotechnology, and How is it possible to report their dirty stuff?”

"Thanks to your suggestion, this news can be announced, and this is also your credit.

"This way...at least, there will be a lot less tragedies like my mother's in the future. I...didn't do anything wrong, did I, Li You?"

Facing her confused look, Li You paused and said, "Ah, you did it right."

"Although it is impossible to prevent things like this, without Safety Spirit, there may be other inferior products put on the market because of the company's interests."

"But at least you saved those patients who might die from this drug in the future. If your mother knew about it, she would definitely be proud of you."

There seemed to be tears in Sasha's eyes. She wiped away her tears, raised her head, and a smile appeared on her face again: "Well! Thank you, Li You!"

"So I said it, and I didn't do anything." Li You laughed. He touched Sasha's head: "Okay, eat quickly, the burger will be cold in a while."

"Uh-huh!"

However, she had just taken two bites when she received another call - from Rebecca.

"Hey——! Sasha? You should have completed your mission to help Li You. When will you return to the team? Mann's big job here needs you!"

Sasha glanced at Li You and then replied: "The commission is completed. I'm eating now."

"Oh, that's fine, give it to me after you finish eating...Wait a minute, is that guy Li You here? Hey--! That new weird monk! You're listening, right!?"

Sasha was stunned, and Li You took the phone and replied: "Hello, Rebecca."

"What's so good! Do I know you very well!?" Rebecca made a fuss on the phone, "How dare you rob our team of hackers!"

"Sasha was supposed to come over to do a mission with us today, but he took leave because of you! Do you know how troublesome it is to deal with a group of scavengers equipped with heavy firepower without the help of hackers!?"

Li You was stunned: "Is there such a thing?"

Sasha suddenly grabbed the phone and said, "Don't listen to her, Li You. I agreed to help you first, and then she came to me, so I refused."

But Rebecca on the phone still refused to give up: "What! If this were the past, if you heard about a big job, you would have immediately rushed to the next life, and all other customers would be rejected..."

"Rebecca! I'll call you back later!" Sasha quickly hung up the communication.

"...Well, Li You, don't worry, Rebecca is like this." She looked at Li You's reaction with some uneasiness.

Li Yuyou didn't say much and just replied: "Don't worry, I know. Hurry up and eat."

"Um!"

Ai Ji turned a blind eye and continued to cook quietly as if no one was making any noise at all.

Yuzi, on the other hand, was showing off cans of coffee next to him, but now he looked Sasha up and down, as if he noticed something and wanted to ask.

But Edge caught him and shook his head at him.

Grapefruit:"?"

After eating, the group took the rail transit and returned to the area near the Japan Street Apartment. Apart from Yuzi's size, which was really eye-catching when passing through the security check, there were no other troubles. Li You had already applied for a NCART City Pass subway card, which was very convenient.

Sasha waved goodbye to Li You and the others downstairs in the apartment and went home. But Li You did not return to the hotel. Instead, he took Yuzi and Aiji and rushed to the bad land in the east outside the city.

The so-called bad land refers to the large wasteland outside the urban area of ​​Night City and beyond the jurisdiction of the city council.

This land is full of low rolling hills, with yellow sand spread everywhere, and water-starved tropical plants scattered here and there, and everything you see is withered and yellow.

This land is the range of activities of "wanderers". Wanderers are not refugees, but a large group of travelers who gather together as a family and travel all over the world.

One of the optional origins of the game protagonist V is a wanderer who broke away from his family "Baker".

In this wasteland desert east of Night City, the main wanderer tribe is a group of members of the "Adecado" family.

Although the name is not very nice, if you have played the game, you will know that the wanderer Adecado family is one of the few places in Night City where people can feel a sense of belonging.

However, Li You is not here to find the Adecado people this time. The wanderers are united in the form of a family. They do not value blood ties, but focus on internal connections. They are not too exclusive, but they will definitely not be very friendly to a stranger who comes to their door rashly.

Now is not a good time to find them. Li You came to the bad land this time mainly to find a place that is secret and safe enough to use as a nest.

——Yes, he plans to release the Night Demon Nest in Night City.

As for why? In the world view of cyberpunk, unless there is a single person who can blow up the city, or the combat power is above, there is no way to rest easy.

And considering that the system requires himself to become a "legend", it is almost inevitable to confront those big companies in the future.

In this case, he has no room to retain his strength, and he must hold all the power he can get in his hands.

It just so happens that he plans to stay in Night City for a while longer, so releasing the Night Demon's nest can not only slowly accumulate combat power, but also allow the nest to grow, killing two birds with one stone.

The only problem is to find a safe enough place to set up the nest, otherwise if something happens to the core of the nest, he will have no place to cry.

And this is exactly the problem that Li You is worried about - where should the nest be placed?

Li You drove the pickup truck of the Vortex Gang that he borrowed from the roadside, carrying Edge and Yuzu, and wandered around the rough roads of the Badlands again and again, even attracting the attention of several wanderers, but he still couldn't make up his mind.

He had already gone through the map of the Badlands area countless times in his mind, but still couldn't find a suitable place to place the nest.

If there is a cave, it must be the first choice, but the Badlands is mainly wasteland. The only cave in Li You's impression is also transparent from front to back, and it is also occupied by the criminal group in the wasteland - the Chaotic Sword Society.

Li You was not afraid of these wild dogs driven away by the wanderers, but once they entangled him, the Night Demon's Nest would not be safe, and he could not stay in the Bad Land forever.

He was still worried, and the phone beside him suddenly rang. Li You looked and saw that it was an unknown number.

"Hello? Who is this?"

An elderly woman appeared on the screen. She was wearing a dark green tactical uniform and had a serious face.

"I heard from the guys under my command that there were several strange guests in the Bad Land. This area is considered to be under my supervision, so I checked the identities of those people-and finally found you, Li You."

Li You had recognized her, Dakota Smith, the middleman in the Bad Land area, and also a member of Adecado.

"Let me introduce myself first. My name is Dakota Smith. In the words of the city people, I am the middleman of the Bad Land. Since you are here, I believe you will say hello in the future, so I contacted you."

"Hello, Dakota." Li You greeted her very casually.

"You are very polite, young man." Dakota nodded, "Then, can I ask you why you keep going around in circles in the Bad Land? You are a bit of an influence on my boys."

Li You didn't expect that his behavior would attract Dakota's attention, so he replied: "I actually wanted to come here to find something... It's a long story, but anyway I won't interfere with you."

"Well, according to the report of my men, you really didn't do anything. I also contacted other middlemen and got your contact information from Regina. She has a high opinion of you, so I can trust you."

"I called just to say hello and confirm that you don't have any other ideas. But now..."

Dakota paused, turned his head, half of his body left the screen, as if looking for something, and then returned to the camera and said:

"Regina has a high opinion of your business ability, and I happen to have a commission here, I wonder... Are you interested?"
