Chat group for game characters

"Hmm, I bought some snacks too!" The hamster held up the big plastic bag in his hand.

V reached out to pick up the bag, and said, "Thank you, but the snacks in Night City can only be said to be like that, to be honest, they don't taste good."

"Yes, we know." The hamster smiled and stretched out a finger and shook it, then said: "Thank you, Mo Qi, we bought these when we traveled to Aiden's origin world!"

V snatched the bag away: "Old Mo, you are simply my god!"

Very honest move, the hamster had a good laugh.

"It also brought everyone here."

Mo Qi turned to one side, allowing V to see Aiden, Cooper, Musk, and Adelina behind him.

"And Miss Ben! (^_–)☆" Miss Anna's energetic voice sounded on the tablet in Adelina's hand.

V looked around: "Embers is absent again?"

Musk asked back: "He has seldom bubbling in the group recently, even less than Lao Mo, what do you think?"

Cooper added: "The last speech was that we will be able to go to the junction after a while."

V nodded, and then called everyone in, chatting at the door somewhat shivering.

As for the reason why everyone suddenly got together, it was naturally the world story [Edge Walker] that Ms. Anna posted in the group.

Things like world stories are probably a little strange in the second group, that is, Mo Qihui. Originally, you can directly use the management system to read this kind of stuff. From here, you can see that the central center is also an awakener who does not object to its subordinates. For those who come into contact with world stories that do not belong to their own world of origin, there is even a dedicated playback port in the system.

However, it is rare to have a world story that no one has read, so Ms. Anna suggested that everyone find a place to get together and watch it together.

The real idea is that Ms. Anna is very curious about the expressions of these people after watching it.

She even planned to record it and send it to the internal forum, the name is... [The reaction of the second group of awakened people after watching "Edge Walker"], how about it?The second group is very mysterious in the eyes of other groups, and the number of clicks must be very high.

Huhu~(?▽?*)

All kinds of snacks and meals bought from Aiden’s Chicago restaurants and supermarkets filled the table. Fortunately, V changed apartments some time ago, otherwise I would be ashamed to use the house in the super skyscraper to entertain everyone.

Among other things, the big TV in front of everyone couldn't be equipped in the dilapidated apartment.

Of course, the TV in this apartment is the same as in the super skyscraper, which is just enough to watch. This big TV was bought by V himself, and he can only do it after moving out.

"Then let's start~! (o゜▽゜)o☆"

As Miss Anna's voice fell, the world story was projected on the TV. Everyone found what they wanted to eat, and started the screening in a brisk atmosphere created by chewing.

"Oh, was it the company square in the first place?"

"Hey, isn't this shirtless cyberpsychic the same as the black super dream I saw... By the way, the place where he is standing is a glass dome... Grass, that place is full of rubbish thrown from the surrounding tall buildings."

"This is the Si'an Westin you mentioned in the group? How does it compare to Brother Gou's concentration? It's all about slowing down time subjectively?"

"Just because concentration is Gouge's own ability, there is no comparison, right?"

"I can do slower slowdown and faster neural response, but it seems that Sianweistein can also provide the installer with stronger mobility, which seems to be the same as teleportation... I can't do it well , but this kind of prosthetic body can be hacked in."

"Haha, I wanted to ask Brother Gou if you want to pretend to be one of these too."

……

Just at the beginning of the story, everyone's mood is always relaxed, even if Miss Anna said that this is a tragic story.

This is just a world story that depicts the last, brightest and most exciting time in the life of a kid at the bottom of Night City. Everyone has expected David's life to fall to the bottom from the beginning.

"The only mother left because of this kind of thing, which is also... oh..."

Women are obviously more emotional. The lost appearance of David holding his mother's ashes on the screen made Adelina feel a little uncomfortable. People mourn unbearably, and die in senseless accidents anyway.

"Tsk, didn't you just say that the status is okay?? Why didn't it work all at once?" The hamster also frowned: "Could it be hacked?"

"Is the last military-grade prosthetic body left by his mother?" Cooper looked forward to David's future more than the current trough.

"There's also an opening and ending song..."

"It always needs to be packaged. Good music can add a lot to the story of the world (o?▽?)o It depends on the foundation of world awareness."

Everyone always inserts a comment or two from time to time, which can also be extended to their respective abilities. Although there are occasional digressions, most of them are still watching this world story seriously.

Today this place is reserved by the second group of awakened people, and everyone can say whatever they want.

It is necessary to say that, after all, it is a world story created by the world consciousness. Although it is projected on the TV, it must not be regarded as an ordinary TV program.

It is like a super dream. The emotions that you want to express in it are amplified along with the rendering of the music before they are passed on to the viewers. In the end, everyone slowly talks less and concentrates on the story in front of them.

Only V is silent throughout this one, and his eyes are more complicated than the others, because David's life is in a way similar to his.

Young boy, the bottom of society, self-made.

But it’s not like, David became the story of the world, V sat on the sofa, watching his life on the screen.

David is not the worst kind in Night City. He also has a mother who loves him and sent him to Arasaka Academy desperately. In the end, this kind of ending is also very common in Night City, like In the Watson district where V lived before, he would encounter three gang fights when he went out to buy some food. Surviving in Night City is a skill and requires a little luck.

At most, like his companions, he sighed with emotion——

It is really a city that cannibalize people without spitting out their bones, a cruel and sad dream-eating city.

The story of the world is divided into ten episodes. They just watched a young boy fall to the bottom due to an accident, and then climb up slowly, become a cyberpunk, integrate into the team, and it seems that life is slowly getting better.

"Hmm... Could it be that the following plot is like this step by step to gain fame and finally do something big and become a legend in Night City?" Musk guessed.

boom! !

On the screen, David and the others encountered cyberpsychosis on an ordinary night return trip, and Pyla, who was like a gibbon because of the installation of a prosthetic arm, was shot in the head.

It's Night City.

"This..." Musk's eyes widened.

The story continues.

David's growth was accompanied by the departure of those who helped him get back up one after another. He became an independent team leader and became more mature and capable in his work.He sits on an equal footing with the great figures in the next life, talking and laughing happily, and the newcomers regard him as an idol and worship him.

More and more prosthetic bodies were installed on his body. From the original Sian Weistein, he looked taller and stronger, and the lines of artificial skin on his body also spread to his whole body.

At the same time, the prosthetic body dragged him into the abyss. At this time, no one in front of the TV continued to comment, and even the sound of eating disappeared. Even Mo Qi and even V were immersed in the story.

The emotion in the world story gives them a sense of being there, even if only from a third-party perspective.

David's life was condensed in this world story of just over 200 minutes, and the world consciousness selected the most exciting part. They watched David equipped with [Prosthetic King Kong] standing on the top of the Arasaka Tower, and finally re- Falling to the bottom floor, he was stepped on by Adam Heavy Hammer, and his body was dismantled into pieces.

The final picture was fixed on Lucy standing on the moon, looking at the earth and facing the sun.

"..."

Everyone was silent, and even though the entire world story had finished playing, no one spoke again for a while.

It always takes time to break free from the emotional thrill of a world story.

"Ugh……"

The first to wake up was V, who just sighed softly.

There are no living legends in Night City, and there is no happy end in Night City.

Everything is not out of V's imagination.

With his sigh, the others slowly came to their senses.

"Anna, I hate it!" Adelina said angrily.

"Hey?? Σ(っ°Д°;)っ"

"Don't let everyone watch this kind of unsatisfactory story together! Are you making a video?!"

"W-how could it be! (((;???;)))" Ms. Anna quickly changed the subject: "It's just that I cried out in pain at the beginning, and wanted to see what would happen to you... Why do you even have eye sockets? Didn't it get red?!"

"What kind of life do you think we live in our own world of origin..." Musk couldn't help but said: "Is there any way to solve the problem by crying, and this is not a very uncomfortable plot."

"Are all the awakeners under my hands such a group of cold guys?! (|| ?Д?)"

"But I still feel uncomfortable..." Aiden also said, "I'm getting older, and I can't see this kind of thing."

Everyone nodded involuntarily.

"So, this is the content of Miss Lucy's commission?" The hamster looked at V: "Arasaka... V, if you accept this commission, bring me one."

Everyone froze for a moment, then suddenly remembered——

They, aren't they in Night City?

Everyone looked out of the window, and the company square was on the other side of the river from Japan Street. In the gaps covered by tall buildings, one could still see the looming Arasaka logo on the Arasaka Tower.

The awakened ones looked at each other, their eyes flickered, and finally looked at V together.

"Take us too!"

If you can't calm down, why don't you just find something refreshing to do for yourself?

"..." V looked at the group of people in front of him with a complicated expression. After a moment of silence, he grabbed his coat and walked outside: "I'm going out for a walk, you can do whatever you want."

Click, the door closed, and V's figure disappeared in front of everyone.

Musk belatedly asked, "What happened to him?"

Adelina rubbed the center of her brows, then gave Musk a slap on the back of the head: "Oh, I accidentally forced him to make a decision... I have to apologize afterwards."

Their behavior just now was as if they were forcing V to take them to destroy the Arasaka Tower together. They can run away when they are happy, but V can't.

"I'll call him and tell him—why don't you answer?"

Cooper slid the system interface and sent a message to V, but the latter refused to answer. He had no choice but to send a message to explain.

Read, no reply.

"What do we do now?" Cooper turned his head and asked everyone.

"Give him some time." Mo Qi said at this time: "He just needs to think it through himself, and figure out what he wants to do."

Mo Qi didn't participate in the other people's uproar just now, as if he had just escaped from the emotional rendering of the world story, he only turned his head at this time and looked at the Arasaka Tower in the distance outside the window.

"As you said, he wanted to do it a long time ago, but he just didn't make up his mind." Mo Qi said to himself: "Otherwise, he should have rejected Lucy in the next life, and now he needs to think clearly... you guys If you have time, you might as well eat or clean up the things you brought.”

Others looked at the uneaten snacks and drinks that covered the coffee table, as well as fast food such as cold fried chicken, pizza, and burgers, and looked at each other in blank dismay.

No way, who let them immerse themselves in the story from the third part, and there is no movement in their mouths?

"Sure enough, put it in V's refrigerator, right? This guy can't usually eat these."

"Yes, yes, I feel good."
