from night city

After V blinked again, she was shocked to find that she was holding her neck.

It's not a giant bat at all, but Lucy.

She froze for a moment.

Slowly release your hands.

Lucy immediately covered her neck and coughed.

V sat down from Lucy's body and looked around.

She just noticed.

None of the hostages who were used as sacrifices died.

Lucy, Jack, and Su Xiao...

They are all there.

It's just that Jack and Johnny are fighting.

Su Xiao leaned against the freezer, but did not take off the Falcion exoskeleton armor that she had been wearing before.

At his feet was the headless corpse of a rotting old woman.

Her head was lying quietly a few meters away.

Su Xiao took out a pneumatic syringe and gave herself an injection.

The cool feeling caressed the wound, and the burning wound immediately stopped hurting.

He threw away the empty pneumatic syringe.

Looking at the others: "Are you back to normal? How do you feel?"

Jack and Johnny also separate after realizing each other.

V said in surprise and uncertainty.

"Su, what on earth is going on?"

Su Xiao pointed to the body at his feet.

"It's the wandering AI. It was summoned to pass through the black wall, come to the real world, and descend on this "container". "

"As soon as it appears, you will fall into an illusion."

"Illusion?" Jack was a little scared.

Just now, he fell into the illusion like V.

Also saw a monster rushing towards him.

But after the fantasy ended, it was discovered that the monster was actually Johnny.

"It can probably be understood as Black Mewtwo, except that the out-of-control AI does not need the Mewtwo headband and corresponding server equipment to plunge you into that terrifying, nightmare-like illusion."

"In fact, if I hadn't asked Lao Wei to install the fourth-generation hacker prosthetic body and anti-detection jammer on you, you would have surrendered to it and become its humble slaves when the out-of-control AI attacked you. ."

"Just like the manager you connected to earlier, Lucy, whose electronic brain is all garbled."

Lidya Su couldn’t help but feel lucky.

If he didn't equip everyone with the best prosthetics...

Then when the out-of-control AI appears, everyone will fail the test and the group will be destroyed instantly.

If he hadn't insisted on not using prosthetics, he would have fallen into an illusion like his companions.

When the other companions were trapped in the illusion, the out-of-control AI found that it was ineffective against him, so it turned to invade his exoskeleton.

Bone Armor, paralyzing Falcion.

If he hadn't upgraded "Strong", "Dodge" and "Block" to full level, or close to full level...

It is also impossible for him to defeat the container possessed by the out-of-control AI with just his physical strength.

The situation was really dangerous.

A close call.

Now, he finally knew why the few free mercenaries sent by Regina disappeared without a trace like a mud cow entering the sea.

Anyone who has accepted the transformation into a prosthetic body has no resistance at all to out-of-control AI.

It's like an instant death spell in a fantasy game.

No matter how high your HP is or how high the magic resistance of the equipment you wear is.

If you are hit by an instant death spell, you will still die.

"Come on, get out of here first."

Lidya Su asked others to go out first.

He dragged the bodies of the people in white and the container possessed by the out-of-control AI to one place.

Then they used biological incendiary grenades to set fire to their bodies.

Su Xiao stood there, staring at their corpses being burned by biological incendiary grenades, leaving no residue, and then finally turned and left.

……

After half an hour.

Hanks' brothers arrived belatedly.

But what people didn't expect was that among the group of people who arrived, there was also the leader of Hanks' Valentino gang...

Gustavo, who is also a good friend of Jack, also came over personally.

After learning the whole story from Jack, even Gustavo, who was already the leader of the gang, broke out in a cold sweat.

Fortunately they arrived late, and fortunately they had the help of Su Xiao and others.

Otherwise, if they rush in as a group, they will definitely be eaten to death by the out-of-control AI, and everyone will become slaves of the out-of-control AI.

Therefore, Gustavo's attitude towards Su Xiao is very friendly and extremely respectful.

Not only did he transfer a large amount of remuneration to Lidya Su.

And assured Su Xiao that no matter when and where he encounters trouble, he and his Valentino Gang will definitely come to help.

……

After saying goodbye to Gustavo and the Valentino gang.

Everyone went home.

Since Johnny is homeless.

Su Xiao took him back to his home.

"Is this your home? It seems that you live a pretty cool life, but it's just not as good as mine."

"Shut up, Johnny."

"Look at you, look at you. If someone talks to you, you're not willing to listen. If you don't want to listen, I'm too lazy to say it. Okay, I won't disturb you. I'm playing on the computer."

Johnny climbed quickly on his legs.

It seems that he has adapted to the robot body of Xiaopingtou.

He climbed to the computer, turned it on, then pulled out a cord and plugged it into the computer.

This allows him to enter cyberspace directly, much more efficiently than typing on a keyboard.

Su Xiao saw Johnny having fun by himself.

I didn't care about him anymore.

I went and took a nice hot bath myself.

Then ordered a takeaway.

Want nothing.

do nothing.

Just lie on the sofa and watch "Rick and Morty" until I fall asleep naturally.

I don't know how long has passed.
