Start a core cabin

"I'll go, what the hell is this!"

Looking at the face in front of him, Panan was also startled and hurriedly raised his gun and tried to shoot. However, before she could pull the trigger, she screamed when she saw the strange face outside, and then a mantis knife suddenly popped out of his arm, broke the glass directly, and stabbed towards Panan!

"Woo!"

Faced with this sudden attack, Panan gritted his teeth and hurriedly rolled away in a panic. The sharp mantis knife almost cut along Panan's hair, swept past it, and even chopped it. A few hairs fell out!

"Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!!"

The man who missed the blow let out a beast-like scream, and the mantis knife in his left hand popped out, stabbing Panan again. This time, Panan had no way to avoid it and could only watch the knife stabbing his chest!

At this moment, time became so slow in Panan's eyes. She seemed to have never felt that time had become so slow. She watched helplessly as the opponent's mantis knife stabbed her, but her body was completely unable to move. It was as if I was pressed down by a huge boulder and I couldn't move at all.

Is this what death feels like?

However, just as Panan was waiting for death, suddenly, a hand suddenly stretched out from the side and grabbed the mantis knife that stabbed Panan.

"Why?"

Seeing this scene, Panan's eyes widened in surprise. She turned around and saw that D was already standing beside her at some point. She stretched out her left hand forward and directly grabbed the mantis knife. Blade. In D's hand, the mantis knife seemed to be clamped by iron pliers, unable to even move.

"Ugh...ah...!!"

The man desperately tried to break free, but to no avail, so he raised his right hand again - but this time D did not give him a chance at all, but came directly behind him and twisted the man's arm directly. , and then directly pushed him to the ground.

"Lucy, do it!"

When it comes to killing people, D will not hesitate, but knocking people unconscious and capturing them alive is beyond the scope of D's ability. With her current attributes, one punch can knock the opponent to pieces. What's more, cyberpsychosis has no sense at all, and there is no way to knock the opponent unconscious. At this time, the only people you can rely on are hackers. After all, only they can overload the other party's electronic neural network and make it comatose, so these few times when D captured the cyber madman, Lucy was always responsible for assisting. Basically, she controls the other party, and then Lucy invades the other party's electronic neural network to perform an electromagnetic short circuit, and then makes the other party lose consciousness, and then Regina can collect the goods.

It's the same this time.

"clear."

Lucy has also been cooperating with D for such a long time, and they are familiar with each other. At this moment, she is also staring at the man who is struggling under D, her eyes flicker, and she starts to invade——As for the direct connection to the Internet, Lucy is He wouldn't even dare to be beaten to death. Just kidding, the other party is a cyber psycho. If I directly use physical connection, then maybe I will be the next cyber psycho!

“Kappa Kappa Kappa!!”

Under Lucy's gaze, arcs of electricity emitted from the man's head, but even so, he still did not faint to the ground.

Seeing this scene, Lucy couldn't help but be stunned.

"This is………………"

"You bastard!!"

Before Lucy could react, Panan had already climbed up from the ground. She picked up the gun that fell beside her and aimed it directly at the man's head.

"I want to avenge my dead family members!!"

"boom!!"

As he spoke, Panan fired directly. At this time, D turned around quickly, grabbed the struggling man and avoided Panan's shooting. The bullet bounced off the wall and Lucy screamed in fright and hurriedly backed away. And at this moment, the man's legs suddenly exploded, emitting a dazzling light, and then his arms twisted and broke free from D's hand. Everyone only heard a "boom", and immediately When the bright light in front of him dissipated, there was nothing left except a messy room and a big hole in the ceiling.

"What on earth do you want to do?!"

Lucy glared at Panan angrily and roared loudly.

"Regina said she was going to be captured alive!"

"But this bastard killed my family and I have to take revenge!"

"Damn it, Regina didn't tell us!"

Lucy stamped her foot angrily and looked at Panan angrily.

"The commission we received was to bring people back alive, not a corpse!"

"Okay, stop arguing."

Compared to Lucy's anger, D seemed very calm. Just like what he said to Lumière before, betrayal is everywhere in Night City. Clients, middlemen, and even companions, everyone is always thinking of you. Dig a hole. Besides, getting angry here won't change anything.

"Lucy, can you tell anything?"

As he spoke, D held out the arm that the man had just broken free from to Lucy.

"………etc."

Hearing D's inquiry, Lucy also glared at Panan angrily, then took D's arm and examined it carefully.

"There is indeed a problem."

"Is there a problem? What problem?"

"This Mantis Knife is the latest product on the market."

Lucy also knew that D would never care about the condition of these prosthetics and implants, so she gave the answer directly.

"They will not be on the market for more than five days, but they are put on this cyber madman! This is simply impossible!"

"Besides, why did you say there was indeed a problem?"

"When I hacked into that cyber maniac's ICE just now, I found that his ICE was very strong and difficult to hack into. According to Regina, if this cyber maniac has been running rampant in the wasteland for ten years, then his system will be The firmware is already old and medieval, so it should be vulnerable! There is no way it can resist my intrusion!"

"To be honest, it's strange that a cyber madman can live for ten years without dying."

D commented, then looked at Lucy again.

"Can you locate his location?"

"Fortunately...the tracking chip has been installed, and the other party is currently moving away from us..."

"Catch up."

D gave the order directly, and then glanced at Panan.

"I'll drive this time."

Hearing this, Panan was stunned.

“Hey, wait, that’s my car…………!”

However, before Panan could finish her words, Lucy stared at her with a bright light in her eyes. The next moment, Panan fell to the ground without saying a word.

You will be in the first grade of junior high school and I will be in the fifteenth grade. No one owes anyone anything.

"Walk."

Without even looking at Panan who was unconscious on the ground, D took Lucy out of the house and rushed into the car. Then he stepped on the accelerator, and the next moment the speeding off-road vehicle disappeared into the strong wind of yellow sand.

It is not easy to track a target in this kind of weather. Fortunately, just to be on the safe side, D inserted a tracking chip into the man as soon as he subdued him. This is also to prevent these cyberpsychotics from escaping again after waking up. After all, Regina wants to capture them alive... If they escape, it will be too late to look for them in the vast sea of ​​​​people, right?

Of course, the flying yellow sand made tracking extremely difficult, and even car lights could not illuminate the area ahead. In addition, although this is the Gobi desert, there are also many gravel trees. Often while driving, a stone suddenly appears in front of the car. If D hadn't reacted quickly enough, the car would have been hit and broken apart.

"Right ahead...he stopped and the signal disappeared!"

“Squeak————!!”

The off-road vehicle turned around and stopped steadily. In the sandstorm in front of them, a building could be vaguely seen, like an abandoned gas station.

"right here?"

"Yes, the signal was lost here."

"Let's go in and look for him, he can't escape!"

At this time, D's curiosity also came up. Generally speaking, cyber lunatics are lunatics who have lost their minds. It can even be said that they are like demons eroded by chaos, with only madness and killing in their minds. They won't hide or run away at all, they will just tear apart every prey that dares to stand in front of them.

So of course, they won't update their implants and firmware.

So why does this guy have the latest implant weapons and an upgraded ICE firewall?

There's no way he just bought the Mantis Knife and then turned into a lunatic.

Then this is interesting.

The dilapidated gas station in front of me seemed to have been deserted for a long time, and everything was dilapidated and messy.

However, this is just an appearance.

The moment D opened the door and walked into the gas station, suddenly, he saw four cylindrical turrets protruding from the ground of the gas station, aiming directly at D————!

"drop-----!"

At the same time, Lucy also hurriedly took action, only to see two of the turrets suddenly stop, then close and retract again. Before the other two turrets had time to show their power, they were smashed into pieces by the power hammer thrown by D with a wave of his hand.

"...Military-grade turret."

Lucy checked it carefully and then reported to D.

"The power is still going on here and I can scan for signs of heavy power usage."

"what else?"

"There seems to be a secret passage here...it seems to be over here."

As she spoke, Lucy came to the cupboard behind the checkout counter of the gas station. She stretched out her hand and pressed it, and then the cupboard immediately slid open, revealing the hidden door inside.

"can I open this?"

"There are some difficulties. Let me give it a try. This encryption is difficult to deal with..."

As Lucy spoke, she stared at the control panel in front of her. In front of her, squares filled with characters appeared and then disappeared. After a moment, Lucy breathed a sigh of relief.

"Untied!"

"Ding-----!"

As Lucy spoke, the closed door opened in front of her, revealing the white elevator space inside.

"Let's go in and take a look."

D said as he walked in, while Lucy hesitated for a moment and then followed. She is not stupid. When things have reached this point, it is obvious that this is no longer as simple as an ordinary cyber madman. From the current situation, it can be seen that there is probably some secret hidden behind this cyber madman, and this secret is very Eighty-nine of them are related to the company.

Um? Why, you ask?

It's very simple. Except for the company, other forces don't have the spare money to build a secret research base under the abandoned gas station, right?

"Do you think this cybermaniac has built a research base down there?"

D leaned against the wall and looked at Lucy, who shook her head.

"Impossible, this kind of behavior must be the company... I said, D, do we really want to continue? It is not a good thing to get involved with the company..."

"I do not care."

D shook his head.

"We're all here, let's see what's going on here."

"…………"

Hearing D's answer, Lucy sighed helplessly.

She had no other choice.

"Ding------"

At this moment, the elevator stopped, and then a dark door blocked the way for the two of them. The door itself is unremarkable, but what is interesting are the patterns and words painted on it.

"Arasaka......"

Looking at the sign in front of her, Lucy's face suddenly turned pale and she couldn't help but take a step back, while D glanced at Lucy.

"Are you scared?"

"Just kidding, how many people in Night City are not afraid of Arasaka?"

"Hey, I'm not afraid."

"………………We really want to go in?"

"Of course, it's all here."

Faced with Lucy's persistent inquiry again, D snorted and stepped forward. At the same time, the scanner at the door began to scan to confirm the identity of the other party.

However, before the scan was completed, D picked up the power hammer and hit the heavy door of Arasaka Company with a heavy hammer.

"Inquisition, open the door!"
