Please Call Me Cyber Ghost King

After returning to Night City, Ke Ling began to prepare funds to purchase weapons, which would take some time.

First, to prepare funds. The business they were doing was based on conscience, and they did not take the route of making huge profits. After deducting the operating costs, the three of them did not really make much money, which was much more conscientious than the previous monopolist, Clea Hall.

The real huge profits were from selling rare items, which were hard to get in this world, but the demand for such items was relatively small. Although the priest and the old captain were actively mobilizing their connections, it was obvious that they could not help Ke Ling sell out all at once.

Second, because Ke Ling wanted to buy large-caliber and high-yield weapons, he wanted weapons that could destroy the Infinite City, which was obviously not something that could be accomplished by buying a water gun.

And because of the Alvin Agreement, Night City has always strictly controlled this point. Even companies have to abide by it on the surface, so ordinary people naturally don’t want to get it, and can only buy it through smuggling.

From this point of view, it is not as convenient as Ke Ling's actions in the world of Tokyo Ghoul. Of course, they are in the initial stage of controlling the world, and need to make a fortune quietly and infiltrate secretly bit by bit. It is not suitable for making trouble for the time being.

Because CCG itself has no demand for human arms and has not received any supply in this regard, why do you, an organization specializing in ghouls, suddenly make so many large-caliber anti-human weapons? It does seem a bit too abrupt.

For Ke Ling now, it is not difficult to get some weapons. The difficult part is to get some big ones. As for the scientific weapons on both sides, he obviously prefers the cyberpunk side.

After all, even if we put aside the objective factors of different times, the weapons here are rolled out in the arms race again and again, and have been verified by several wars. There is no comparison at all.

"We are familiar with smuggling."

Vincent said with some surprise. He had followed Tran Buckle into the city and settled down temporarily in Night City. He said he could help Ke Ling with his needs.

"That's right, our Buckle family specializes in running cars in the Badlands."

Tran Buckle said. To put it nicely, it's called running cars in the Badlands. To put it bluntly, it's taking some smuggling missions between cities. Their Buckle family wanders more than Sol Bright's Adecado family.

"Tran, don't mention the Buckle family anymore."

Vincent frowned. He didn't really want to mention the Buckle family. Since he had left, he would cut off completely.

It's not that Vincent is ruthless, but a kind of mutual fulfillment. Generally, people like them will be directly labeled as "Ran Daohui" by the family, widely publicized, and bear the reputation of traitors and betrayers, but the Buckle family did not treat them like this, but just removed them from the list.

From then on, the road was open to the sky, each going his own way, as if the two sides had never had any contact, you don't mention me, and I don't mention you.

"Tsk, don't mention it."

Tran Buckle rubbed his teeth, with a helpless expression. Although he had left the family and entered Night City, some things did need to be slowly adapted.

Vincent shook his head and felt a little sad, because from the way this matter was handled, it can be seen that the current leader, Chari Darling, is really not a wise leader, and the future is bleak. No wonder people's hearts are getting more and more scattered.

Letting them go like this seems to be humane, but at the same time it also makes the Buckle family completely fall apart from now on, and no longer has any cohesion or family unity.

Chari Darling's indulgence is also the last straw that pushed Vincent to leave the Buckle family. This family is completely hopeless.

He didn't know what Chari Darling was thinking. Maybe she thought that letting Tran Buckle and other young people who always sing against her go would consolidate her power?

"This matter really depends on you and the wanderers outside."

Ke Ling nodded. The reason why he talked about this with Vincent and Tran Buckle was that he wanted to get some goods from outside. Isn't Night City strictly checked? Then just don't buy in Night City, and don't bring the goods purchased from outside into Night City.

"We want to build a base in the Badlands."

Ke Ling made up his mind. He looked at Vincent and Tran Buckle. Both of them looked a little hesitant, wanting to say something but not wanting to say it. After all, they just said not to mention the Buckle family.

"I know, the Buckle family has started to migrate, right?"

Ke Ling smiled and said what they wanted to say for the two. The Buckle family is going to be incorporated into the "Snake State". Although it is not set in stone, it is almost certain. They are about to leave the vicinity of Night City, which is probably one of the proofs.

The place where the Buckle family was stationed before was a very good place to establish a long-term base, because the Buckle family had used time to prove that it was at least livable, and they no longer had to worry about basic living needs. Could anyone be better at choosing a location in the bad land than the Wanderer family?

"That place is indeed good."

Tran Buckle spoke up, but he didn't hide anything. What was there to deny? He also contributed to the site selection, right? Now that the Buckle family has left, it's not impossible for them to continue to use that place.

"Then let's set it there. I'd better ask you to sit down for a while and set up the stall first. On the surface, we will regard it as a logistics transfer station for organic meat and let the drivers who go out to collect the goods We have a place to rest."

Ke Ling made arrangements. This bad land stronghold is indeed very necessary. The organic meat business needs to go outside to collect the goods in a sports car. The wanderers will not deliver the goods to the city for you. The road is long, and the drivers We do need a place to rest our feet in the middle, so this location is pretty good.

"no problem."

Teran Barker agreed immediately. Although he left the city again after a long time of fuss, he said it was temporary. He could also understand that setting up a stronghold in the bad land really depends on them, the former wanderers. , City people are really bad.

"This matter is easy to handle. You don't need to transfer people from outside. You just need to pay. I will contact other homeless people to help, and I will be able to set up the stall soon. I still have some connections."

Teran Bakker looks confident and has joined a new team. He also needs to show his value. At present, his greatest value and advantage is his identity as a Ranger, which is Selita Bakker's. As a grandson, he has acquaintances in many homeless families.

"You can contact the people of the Red Ocher family. They have been having a miserable life recently."

Vincent interjected. The homeless people did not resist doing infrastructure construction and such dirty work. They relied on this to survive from the beginning. Many urban reconstructions were attributed to the homeless people.

"Them? Are they reliable? I heard that they contracted some disease and many people died."

Hearing the name "Red Ocher", Teran Bakr couldn't help but frowned and questioned. After all, this matter was very evil. If it was an infectious disease, the fun would be huge.

"Isn't that the case? It was fine last time we met."

Vincent was a little embarrassed. He didn't expect the situation in the Red Ocher family to be so serious.

"Contact them. Isn't this the time to help?"

Ke Ling interjected that he still knew about the Red Ocher family and could use it.

The disease in the Red Ocher family is an infectious disease, but it is not an infectious disease at the same time. First of all, it is indeed contagious, as long as you don’t touch the corpse. Secondly, this disease is not a naturally occurring disease, but was born out of a major shortage of biotechnology companies. Great virtue.

"Devil, are you sure? Dozens of people in the Red Ocher family have died because of this matter, and no one dares to contact them now."

Teran Bakker advised that if you are not a relative or a friend, there is really no need to take this risk. I heard that there is no cure for this disease. If you get infected, you will have to wait for death, and the death will be miserable. , although he has never seen it, but just hearing the description is hard to understand.

"Don't worry, Tran, you may not know that I am a professional doctor, and I can cure the Red Ocher family's disease."

Ke Ling spoke confidently. He really planned to go and see what was going on right away. If this problem was solved, the Red Ocher Family would be a good helper, allowing them to be stationed in the bad land as the guards of the new stronghold. By.

"Are you kidding me?"

Teran Bakker opened his mouth in surprise. He didn't expect Ke Ling to be so reckless. He said it was so scary. Not only did Ke Ling not give up the idea, he even wanted to go there in person.

"Seriously, who will lead the way?"

Ke Ling nodded and replied, then let the two of them choose.

"Well, let me go."

Vincent and Teran Barker looked at each other, and Vincent responded first. After all, he was the one who brought up the matter, and he had just learned that there was such a thing as "infectious disease", so there was nothing special about it. Lan Bakker was so worried.

"Really. Let's go together if we want to!"

Teran Bakr gritted his teeth and finally decided to go along.

As long as you take protective measures and don't touch and eat randomly, you shouldn't be infected. That's what the person who told him about this before said, and he is still willing to believe it. If it is easy to get infected, that guy After visiting the Red Ocher Family, wouldn’t I be infected too? Then he can't escape.

The three of them set off without saying a word. Teran Bakr contacted the people at Red Ocher and asked about the situation there.

"It's done, let's go take a look."

In a few words, Teran Bakker made an appointment to visit. The Red Ocher family is really in need of help now. They will not refuse any goodwill, but it is only limited to acquaintances.

Soon, a group of three people arrived at the camp of the Red Ocher Family. Before they even got out of the car, they felt a strange atmosphere. Everyone's face was solemn, and they were all wearing masks and doing basic protective isolation. In addition, they do not have good isolation means, so they can only protect themselves as much as possible.

After getting out of the car, Teran Bakker tightened his mask, feeling a little drummed in his heart. Vincent's face was solemn, and he also realized the seriousness of the matter. The situation of the Red Ocher family does not look good. Judging from the impact of this disease Come quite big.

Ke Ling didn't think there was anything wrong with it. He could only say that in this world where capital controls everything, it is absolutely normal for this kind of thing to happen.

"Tran, Vincent, and this friend, come with me."

A young man in his twenties came to pick them up. He was a friend of Teran Bakker and the son of the leader of the Red Ocher tribe. The expression on his face was a little sad. This sadness made Ke Ling They soon understood why.

"I'm sorry, my father is also infected, so it's not convenient to meet him for the time being."

The first words the man spoke made Teran Bakker stunned for a moment. He opened his mouth and wanted to say "sorrow" directly, but when the words came to his mouth, he realized that they were not suitable and he was stuck for a moment.

"Ted, what is going on? Why is it so serious?"

Vincent took over the conversation and asked with a frown. This looked unusual. It was clear that nothing happened not long ago. He also knew Ted Mosby, but not that well.

"It's a long story."

Ted sighed and immediately started talking to the three of them, as if he had finally found someone to talk to about his stress.

Everything starts with the biotechnology company's testing of a new cold medicine. They signed a contract with the biotechnology company to help the biotechnology company test a new cold medicine. Before signing the contract, they repeatedly confirmed that this time it was just to test the efficacy. The side effects test has already been completed.

The results of it? The fact is that the signed contract is like a piece of waste paper, and the words of the biotechnology company are like farts. Just two days after the experiment started, a member of the tribe developed a disease.

Then the nightmare begins. The biotechnology company apologizes quickly. They claim that they will do their best to treat them, and then take away the sick tribesmen, but in the end they often send back a corpse, and some even don’t even send the corpse. return.

Now, one thing can be directly confirmed, that is, it was all a trap from the very beginning. They were just a group of guinea pigs, guinea pigs who were pulled into experiments.

"Those bastards! They did it on purpose! Because we are wanderers who no one cares about! They can murder us at will! Because the people in the city don't care! No matter how many deaths there are, they don't care!"

In the end, Ted was already a little over the top. There was a precedent for this. After the nuclear explosion decades ago, Adecado's people were hired in large numbers to remove radiation, but the compensation promised in advance was , but there was no treatment after the incident. The city people did not treat them as human beings as usual!

"."

Vincent and Teran Bakker were both silent. What should I say? As those who have just escaped from their status as wanderers, they can still empathize with this kind of thing.

"Actually, the same goes for people in the city, but they do it better."

Ke Ling said, biotechnology companies are not targeting homeless people. They have been recruiting such "volunteers" in the city and recruiting sick people to participate in drug experiments.

Biotechnology companies even search for experimental subjects in the name of recruiting workers. This can be seen from their recruitment conditions. Other companies must be "smart", "experienced", and "clean", but biotechnology companies The requirement is "can be sick".

This is the current era, it’s ridiculous to think about being fucking sick.

At some point in the past, opinion leaders in society would even protest against the drug and cosmetics industries for testing on animals.

But today, no one cares if the test subjects become living people. Anyway, there are many anonymous and extremely poor people in the city who serve as guinea pigs, not to mention homeless people outside the city.

For researchers who have no bottom line, this is simply a perfect business model. As long as a series of bizarre deaths and disappearances occur, within a few years, a new product worth billions will inevitably be released.

The person behind this incident, Joanne Kochi, is a leader in playing with this business model. This is not the first time she has done this. She can become the regional R\u0026D director. She really has to thank those who died in the experiment. of hundreds of lives.
