from night city

"Are they crazy? Do they know what they are doing?"

A cult like the Eden Gang.

It's not hard to understand why anyone would want to follow.

Because cults similar to the Eden Gang generally preach that the end of the world is coming.

If you want to survive and gain a place in the new world, you can only be saved by joining them.

It’s understandable that someone would be fooled by Su Xiao with remarks like this.

But like worshiping out-of-control AI, and letting out-of-control AI cross the black wall...

Are these people totally clueless?

Don’t they all know that they are actually a member of the human race in Night City, and that they are also one of the targets that will be wiped out by the out-of-control AI?

"They are already members of a cult. Do you expect them to still think rationally? It's like a gambling dog who promises you that he will never gamble again, but in fact it's just to win your sympathy and pity."

"So that you can believe that he/she has changed his mind and changed his past, so that they can continue to borrow money from you."

"As soon as you find them gambling again, they will pretend to be repentant and more pious than a fucking saint.

They always believe that they will make a comeback in the next move, 'What if, if you are lucky, you can make money back in the next move', they always say this. "

On the holographic phone, Regina's emotions were a little out of control.

This situation is rare.

Because Regina rarely loses her composure when talking to others.

Apparently, she knew someone who was like this, and she was tortured quite a bit.

Regina also realized this: "Sorry, I lost my temper."

"It's okay." Lidya Su waved her hand.

Everyone loses control of their emotions sometimes.

The collapse of adults often occurs in an instant.

Not to mention his relationship with Regina.

Who is following whom?

What is this.

Regina's tone was serious and dignified: "Lilith's cabin, I know where their lair is, but, Su, be careful, please be careful. I have hired several free mercenaries to check the situation before, but they have not been there since." From now on, it’s like disappearing without a trace.”

Su Xiao was puzzled.

"Since they are so dangerous, why not ask the NCPD to kill them?"

"Don't you think I haven't tried it? The NCPD is under control from top to bottom and they won't send out the police at all."

"Ok."

This is Night City.

Anything that goes against common sense and cognition may happen.

Because this is the City of Night.

Regina finally warned: "In short, be careful in everything."

"I understand, thank you, Regina."

……

After getting the address from Regina, everyone drove to the location of Lilith's cabin.

On the way, Jack also called his good brother Gustavo.

Gustavo is the leader of Hanks' Valentino gang.

After hanging up the phone, Jack said to Su Xiao.

"He said give him half an hour."

Lidya Su nodded slightly.

Say you know.

To get from Heywood to the industrial area north of the city, you have to go through the Civic Center or detour through Westbrook.

In addition, he also had to recruit his brothers in the gang.

Half an hour is pretty quick.

It's possible to slow down for an hour or two.

Soon, they arrived at the spot Regina mentioned.

This is an abandoned factory building.

Since the decline of the industrial zone in the north of the city, there have been countless abandoned abandoned factories like this.

Some factories are used by gangs as their hideouts.

Many more remain empty and become campsites for the homeless and homeless.

Su Xiao asked Lao De to park the car on the parking line outside, and then turned on the tactical goggles.

A circle of red light that no one else could see centered on him and spread in all directions.

Soon, dozens of red humanoid shadows appeared in the tactical eyepiece.

The name marked on one of the human figures is Hanks.

It seems they were in the right place.

And Hanks is still alive.

Although the scanned information showed that Hanks was seriously injured.

Both the hand tendons and hamstrings were severed.

But as long as he is not dead, Su Xiao and the others can rescue him later.

In addition to Hanks, there are several other people like him who have had their hand tendons and hamstrings broken.

Su Xiao froze for a moment.

Then continue to observe.

At this time, he noticed that these people like Hanks were at a certain distance from other people.

They were forced to their knees and formed a circle.

The tactical eyepiece does not see through, it just presents the scanned information on the screen.

Therefore, Su Xiao was unable to see Hanks' environment and other specific details.

But the "Lilith's Cabin" that kidnapped Hanks is a cult.

It is not difficult for people to guess that with such a posture...

I'm afraid it's not some ceremony being prepared/held.

"Su, your face doesn't look good. Did you see something?"

"It was like they were performing some kind of ritual."

"It's okay. There are no ghosts in Night City anyway. If they like to engage in cults, let them do it. When your good brothers from the Valentino Gang come, you can kill them all."

Johnny Tachikma Silverhand, who was silent all the way, finally spoke at this time, waved his mechanical leg.

Su Xiao glanced at Johnny: "They are a cult. Do you think they will kill a few sacrifices to their evil gods when they hold a ceremony?"

Johnny was choked and speechless.

Others also realized at this time that something was wrong.

So several people got out of the car and walked towards the abandoned factory.

……

"Be careful, there's a trap here."

Scan the surrounding environment with the help of Falcion's built-in tactical screen.

Su Xiao and others easily avoided various booby traps arranged inside the abandoned factory.

The group of people went deep into the factory building and finally entered a workshop.

"The entrance is here."

Su Xiao pointed to a piece of heavy machinery and equipment in the workshop.

This heavy-duty mechanical equipment is more than ten meters long, several meters wide, and two meters high.

Just by looking at it, you can tell that this thing is not a cabinet that can be pushed open at will.

The hiding place of "Lilith's Cabin" is down here.

Logically speaking, this

There should be some kind of mechanism to open the entrance.

But several people on the heavy machinery could not find any buttons that could be pressed.

Su Xiao estimated that the entrance mechanism might not be opened from the outside, but could only be activated from the inside.

That is to say, every time people outside need to enter, they will call the people inside, and then the people guarding the hiding place will open the mechanism.

However, it doesn't matter if you can't hit the mechanism.

Su Xiao pulled out Murasame from her waist and raised the red blade above her head.

Then he waved hard.

A red light flashed in the air.

The heavy machinery and equipment in front of him was immediately cut in two.

This is not over yet.

Su Xiao then swung several knives in succession.
