Game world survival starts from Resident Evil 2

Outside the Afterlife Bar, in the corner of the parking lot.

V folded his arms, looked at Li You, and said, "Hunter? Sir? Is this your name?"

Li You smiled: "That's the code name others gave me recently."

"Were those people just now your subordinates?"

"My new fan."

V nodded: "That's right. You don't like that kind of rookie who can't see the difference in strength and has no physique."

She then looked at Li You again and said, "You dare to ask me to talk alone. It seems that you are confident?"

Li You's smile continued: "How do I remember that the last time we met, I wasn't the one who suffered?"

V was not angry: "I caught you by surprise last time."

"Okay, let's get down to business."

She stood in front of Li You. With her tall figure, V could not lose too much momentum even if she looked at Li You.

"The day before yesterday, you and other mercenaries illegally invaded the company's residence and committed criminal acts, causing considerable damage to the company's property."

"You know just by doing this, I can put you on Arasaka's wanted list."

Li You said: "Well, but I also know that with my current 'criminal deeds', it is not enough to attract Arasaka's attention, unless...you want to do this, right?"

V nodded: "The response is very fast, that's what it is. I won't talk to you about useless things. If I want, I can use the power of the Counterintelligence Department to make you completely disappear from Night City."

Li You didn't refute, and said, "In that case, a big shot like you comes to see me in person incognito, so he must have something more important to explain?"

V looked at him again and said: "You don't look scared, which means you are either a fool who doesn't know the heights of the world, or you have something to rely on."

"Guess?"

V was a little hesitant now. What she originally thought was that when she found the person and revealed her identity and stakes, she wouldn't have to worry about being able to control this guy.

But if he is not so afraid of Arasaka's reckoning, even if it sounds unbelievable, V will have to make new plans.

V has already seen the combat effectiveness of Li You's sword in slashing mechas. Although it was a relatively old-style exoskeleton mecha rather than an Arasaka mecha that was in serious service, this combat effectiveness was enough to shock and value her. And from what she saw, Li You didn't even have any decent prosthetic body.

All these factors have cast a veil of mystery on Li You's identity, forcing V to consider the possibility that he is indeed emboldened.

Her earliest plan was actually to find Li You and use coercion and inducement. While making him reveal the information, it would be best if she could also force him to go back and work for her.

At that time, I will settle the previous conflicts with him.

But she didn't expect that this secret investigation would lead to frequent accidents. First, Li You took the initiative to appear in front of her, disrupting her plan, and then he was indifferent to Arasaka's threats, resulting in V not being able to take the initiative in the conversation at all.

V's original idea was that he would suddenly appear when the little thief was most relaxed, give him an unexpected shock first, and then reveal his identity, so that he would willingly reveal information and seek asylum.

Looking at it now, it is probably impossible to achieve the best result. V's mind changed quickly, he had considered it, and decided to settle for the next best thing, so he said instead:

"Let me tell you this, no matter what you rely on, it is meaningless in the face of Arasaka's footsteps. Once the Counterintelligence Department decides to capture you, resistance will be in vain, even if you can obtain immunity from other companies, We can also take care of you before you escape."

Li You's expression remained calm.

The corner of V's mouth twitched slightly, but he continued: "...However, I admire you very much. Among the mercenaries who gather everywhere, you are also the most outstanding one. So I can give you a chance."

"If you reveal the details of the commission you executed at Jintingmu Building and your accomplices, I can let you go."

Li You flatly refused: "This is impossible."

V narrowed his eyes: "Then you want to have sex with Arasaka head-on?"

But Li You shook his head again and said, "I can't accept your conditions, but."

Seeing that V's evil aura was getting stronger and stronger, he changed the topic and said, "I have another proposal."

"...Say it." V thought for a moment and decided to listen.

Li You smiled: "What do you think? I will reveal to you the key information you need most this time, and you will stop investigating. In the future, if you need mercenaries for any job, you can come to me, and if I have anything Regarding matters involving the company, I will inform you in advance.”

V was also stunned after hearing this, and asked: "You mean, you want to cooperate with me for a long time?"

"That's understandable."

V looked at Li You's friendly smile, thought for a while, and then said: "Although you said so, I don't trust you. There is no basis for cooperation between you and me."

"I don't think so." Li You said, "I have known you before, Ms. Valerie, and I also know that you are an excellent agent of the Counterintelligence Department. If I were not sincere, you would have been 'reset to zero' last time I won’t let you, the witness who saw my face, live to this day.”

V frowned and looked at him. Although he didn't want to admit it, it was indeed illogical for Li You to let him go before. She wouldn't think without thinking that the guy in front of her was fascinated by her pretty face, so she stopped.

And if nothing else, it's very strange that he actually knows his real name. From these points, what he said is indeed credible.

But Li You is really mysterious, and the benefits of working with him are unclear.

Seeing V's hesitation, Li You took out another chip.

"Look at this." He showed the separation chip in his hand.

"This is…?"

"This is what the client gave us in the last commission. With this, I think you can deliver."

Li You looked at V with a smile.

Of course, he didn't just bring this thing out just to win over V, nor was he selling out his teammates.

This chip was not the original one given by the customer. It was cracked and copied by Sasha and others just in case. The original chip had been destroyed by Faraday himself.

Yesterday, Li You contacted Mann and others and told them that Arasaka's people were investigating the incident at the Kintingiki Building.

After the discussion, one of the solutions that everyone came up with was to find a way to hand over the chip loaded with the virus program to the people in Arasaka to draw their attention away from everyone.

As for whether this will lead to customer dissatisfaction? The customer can't prove that they handed over the chip. Moreover, even if there is any objection, it is a problem for the middleman, Mr. Faraday, to solve.

V looked at the chip in Li You's hand. After weighing it repeatedly, he finally decided to resolve the trouble quickly and smoothly. The thought of taking a peaceful vacation prevailed: "Deal!" Li You smiled: "Great. Take it. Go! The relevant records are also there.”

He threw the chip to V. V took it, read the content on the spot, and immediately understood: "So that's what happened."

She then looked at Li You: "You just gave me the things like this, and you are not afraid that I will turn against you and deny you?"

Li You raised the corner of his mouth: "Of course I have considered this. If you really do this, then the same chip will be sent to Ms. Abernathy's home. I think, you and your boss Mr. Jenkins , maybe you don’t want her to receive such a small gift, right?”

"And besides that, I have also prepared other means. If you really plan to break the contract, you can look forward to it when the time comes."

V: “…!?”

She finally couldn't help but said: "What on earth are you..."

Li You only showed a bright smile: "Happy cooperation!"

"...Huh, let's do that." Although V was still full of questions, he didn't ask any more questions at this time and immediately planned to leave.

"Oh, by the way." Li You said at this time, "As a celebration, do you want to go to the next life for a drink? My treat. I remember that you only drink tequila from the God of Wine?"

Hearing this, the corners of V's eyes twitched slightly, and finally he said "No!" and turned to leave.

V's figure gradually moved away and disappeared around the corner. Li You was looking at her with interest when a ringing sound came from his arms.

"Didi dididi——"

He answered the phone: "Hello?"

"Hey, you're Li You, right?" On the phone, a middle-aged man with long hair and bangs greeted Li You.

"I'm Miami Reyes, they all call me the old captain. The car Dakota ordered from me is ready for you. Just come and pick it up when you have time."

Li You was very polite: "I know, thank you."

"Hey, it's all business. If you want to buy other cars, don't forget to check with a good car middleman! That's it!"

He immediately hung up the communication.

The old captain is a middleman in the Santo Domingo area. He also runs the largest second-hand car buying and selling website in Night City.

Yesterday, Dakota sent a message, saying that Li You's previous Colby Lone Peak was too damaged and was not worth repairing, and suggested that he replace it with a new one.

Li You looked at his newly received more than 300,000 euros and felt that it was acceptable, so under Dakota's introduction, he ordered a new car from the old captain.

Li You looked at the time, and there was really nothing else to do now, so he could just go.

He returned to the Afterlife Bar and told everyone that the investigation on Arasaka had been basically completed, and then took Aggie with him to pick up the car. Because there is no suitable vehicle and it is inconvenient to travel, Yuzi stayed in the hotel. He only brought Aiji with him today.

However, under Mann's warm invitation, Li You and Edge finally took Falco's car and headed to Santo Domingo. In the car, Sasha was also sitting, and she said she wanted to follow Li You to see what Li You's new car looked like.

The address given by the old captain was not the dam where he always looked at the scenery in the game, but the garage where we met after stealing a car for the first time in the new car theft mission in the Shadow of the Past DLC.

Falco drove here, and the old captain's people were already waiting here. After confirming Li You's identity, he nodded: "Follow me."

The garage door opened in front of everyone, and a rough-looking Tingwei Merrimac was quietly dormant inside.

The thick light brown extended body, extra thickness of the car shell, six off-road tires with two front and four rear all-wheel drives, unique mud fender eyebrows, and it is obviously not smaller than Colby Lone Peak, but it is placed in the overall body. The seemingly compact pickup truck bucket makes this car look like a giant beast lying on the ground.

Merrimack "Magician" is the vehicle Li You purchased this time.

In the game, this car is a new addition to the DLC and is a purchasable vehicle that can only be unlocked after completing the old captain’s car-stealing mission.

However, thanks to Dakota's introduction, Li You not only ordered the car directly from the old captain, but also commissioned it to be modified.

The glass windows were replaced with bulletproof steel plates, and the car shell was also filled with materials to make it resistant to bullets. Correspondingly, the crystal ball system and bulletproof tires are also required.

Finally, machine guns were installed on both sides of the front of the car, turning this Merrimack into an armed vehicle, which would have been restricted from the road if it was just a little bit off.

In addition, Li You felt that the NUSA flag on the front of the car was too ugly, so he asked someone to paint it, and it finally looked good.

"Beep beep beep--"

The old captain called: "How is it, Li You! Isn't this baby good? If it weren't for Dakota's introduction, I wouldn't sell it to you easily!"

Li You was stroking the bulletproof window of Merrimack, feeling its strength, and replied: "It's really good."

"Hehe, of course! The modification is all done according to your requirements. Now, she is a monster!"

The quality of the old captain's modification is really good. Even if Li You didn't mention it, he was very considerate to reserve space for further modification on the car. If necessary in the future, it is possible to add a remote-controlled machine gun turret like Panam in the game, or even a missile slot.

Of course, Li You also spent a lot of money on this order. The price of Merrimack Magician was originally only 43,000 euros. After this modification, the total price more than doubled to 91,000 euros.

But in general, it is still worth it. Especially this Merrimack is already full of power, even if it carries Yuzu, the speed will not be slowed down much.

As for a better car, it's not that he can't afford it, but it's not outstanding in terms of cost performance. Considering the convenience of Yuzi, Li You finally chose this one.

"This baby will be yours in the future, remember to treat her well." The old captain finally said, "Now, get in the car and try her feeling!"

Li You was not polite, opened the car door and sat in the driver's seat. After a simple groping, he smiled at Edge and Sasha: "Come up and try it?"

Sasha couldn't wait any longer and immediately climbed into the back seat, while Edge sat in the co-pilot.

"Wow--!"

Merrimack is not only a four-seater, but also has a spacious interior, which looks much more comfortable than Colby Lone Peak.

After getting in the car, the crystal ball system automatically started, projecting the scene outside the car window onto the inner side of the armor plate, which is not transparent, so that the passengers in the car can also see the outside clearly.

"Sit well, let's go!"

Li You stepped on the accelerator, drove out of the garage, and left in a cloud of dust.

In the back, Falco looked at the rear of the Merrimack going away, then looked at his old car parked nearby, and could only shake his head and sigh.
