Start a Core Pod

Chapter 788: Fight in

After taking over the task, D took the chip and left the next life, taking the girl back to the car with him. Then he opened the terminal on his wrist and inserted the chip into the interface.

“You are actually still using such an old-fashioned external terminal...”

 Looking at the device in D's hand, Lucy couldn't help but sigh in surprise.

“As long as it works, it’s safer.”

While scanning the contents of the request, D replied in a low voice.

“Actually, I can’t understand your thoughts. Of course, it’s acceptable to replace limbs with machines, but having your head at the mercy of others is simply unimaginable.”

 Having said this, D shook his head.

As she said, there is nothing wrong with the implant itself. Duanmuhuai can also accept those who have lost their limbs to replace them with prostheses, or because of heart problems, they can get artificial hearts, kidneys, lungs and other organs. acceptable.

 Taking a step back, because you have lost your vision or hearing, it is acceptable to replace it with machinery.

However...what the **** is it to do something to the brain?

It is true that the electronic intrusion computing in this world is assisted by the brain through chips, but this also means that the brain's neural network is synchronized with the electrons, and more importantly, it can be invaded!

So where do you have the guts to install such a thing?

Duanmuhuai has seen more than once scenes where hackers easily invaded the other party's brain to collect data, which made him find it unbelievable. Of course, it's not that I can't believe this kind of technology, but that the other party is so crazy that even my brain is digitized and I can't understand it.

How brave are you, how dare you operate on your own brain?

 Isn’t this a disease?

In Duanmuhuai’s view, the benefits brought by this kind of human brain neural computing are completely incomparable with the potential threats. But the people here are like lunatics. Once they have money, they want to transform themselves all over. In this world, implants are as necessary as houses and cars?

If Night City is compared to an online game, then the vast majority of civilians are equivalent to ordinary players, wearing ordinary equipment that they have done tasks or bought. Mercenaries and gangs are more like studios, wearing They are all high-level attribute equipment obtained when playing dungeons. The company's senior executives are krypton gold players. They are all krypton equipment, and the attribute points are naturally incomparably high.

So you see, no matter how many people there are, they are still no match for well-equipped professional players. If you beat them without breaking their defenses, they can kill you instantly with an A level. Moreover, this is a PVP game, and there are no mobs to explode equipment for you. .

Hence, in Duanmuhuai’s view, it is unnecessary for most people to install prosthetics, and it is a waste of money.

"I will not accept my brain being at the mercy of others. In comparison, the small benefits are negligible."

 “It’s really an outdated idea.”

“Outdated ideas are not necessarily wrong, and public ideas are not necessarily right.”

As he spoke, D closed the terminal, then took out the chip and handed it to Lucy.

 “Come and take a look too.”

"OK."

 Lucy reached out and took D's chip, then inserted it into the interface behind her ear. Then, a ray of light flashed in her eyes.

“Our target is the base of the Uzumaki Gang. Their boss kidnapped an eldest lady. We are responsible for rescuing her to prevent the eldest lady from being dismantled by the Uzumaki Gang.”

 Speaking of this, D looked at Lucy.

"Your mission is very simple. Hack into the other party's camera and cut off all external communications. Just don't let them have time to call for help. If you can lock all the doors leading to the outside, can you do it?"

“It’s possible, but...are you sure?”

Hearing D's order, Lucy couldn't hide her doubts and surprise. Hackers are indeed generally not responsible for frontal combat, but for rear assistance. But in the final analysis, the hacker's task is to assist the teammates in front, help them hack the camera, open the originally locked door, eliminate their surveillance images, or in many cases, when their teammates are in danger, open a way for them to escape.

 This is the role of hackers.

 But D’s request does not allow any escape at all, as long as he surrounds the entire building? This is the home base of the Uzumaki Gang! If I do what she says, then if D is besieged, I won’t have anywhere to run!

“I’m sure, as long as you don’t let them call for support or let anyone slip through the net, it’ll be fine.”

"No."

 “Very good, let’s set off.”

 After saying this, D stepped on the accelerator, and the next moment the sports car rushed out of the parking lot like an arrow and sped towards the highway.

If there is nothing that Duanmu Huai is most satisfied with in this city, it is the car design of this world.

 All men like cars, and Duanmuhuai is no exception. However, in the past, he was really too big to fit into the driver's seat, so he could only play games to enjoy himself. And in this world, Duanmu Huai can finally enjoy his racing addiction on his own!

Not only that, there is something about Night City’s model design that suits Duan Muhuai’s liking, that is, there are several models in Night City that are fully enclosed, without even windshields, and the front is completely integrated with the body. It looks like a fully enclosed tank in the shape of a sports car.

 But in fact, as long as you sit in the car and start it, the screen in front of you will immediately automatically show the scenery captured by the camera outside the car. Not only the front, but also the sides and rear can be clearly seen.

I have to say that Duanmuhuai was really excited when he drove this sports car named The Sword in the Stone for the first time. Especially get in the driver's seat and turn on the ignition. Then the originally pitch-black screen in front of them suddenly lights up, displaying the entire vehicle's top, bottom, left, and right in front of the user without any blind spots... Oh, how can I put it this way? This is high technology.

To be honest, Duanmuhuai feels that in this aspect alone, this future has something to offer. If the Inquisition builds a car in the future, this idea must be put into it. Not only is it full of fashion and technology, but it is also not afraid of leaking privacy. You can do anything in it without fear of being seen. Isn't it wonderful?

So at this moment, D was listening to the music, stepped on the accelerator to the bottom, and galloped forward.

 For Lucy sitting in the passenger seat, this was frightening.

She gritted her teeth, widened her eyes, and watched the traffic that almost turned into lines passing by her. She was so frightened that her face turned pale and she could hardly speak.

As the game character of Duanmu Huai, one of the three gene seeds D possesses is the Space Wolf. As a genetic primarch who can race around the galaxy, D naturally inherits this style. There is no need to brake or slow down. Just press the accelerator to the bottom and rush forward. It is as if you want to break through the speed of light and rush directly into the network tunnel.

At this moment, Lucy was naturally leaning against the back of the chair, looking at everything in front of her in horror. What frightened her the most was that D seemed to have no concept of braking at all, and would rush forward regardless of whether there was a car in front of him or not.

just like………

 “There is a tunnel ahead——!”

Looking at the tunnel in front of her and the heavy traffic jam at the entrance of the tunnel, Lucy was worried about death. However, at this moment, D suddenly turned the steering wheel, and the next moment, as the nitrogen injection started, the Sword in the Stone suddenly turned when it was about to hit the vehicle in front, and it actually stuck to the smooth road. The tunnel wall slid directly up the wall like a gecko, then sped forward, then spun across the traffic in front, landed on the ground, and continued forward.

When the two of them arrived at their destination, Lucy was already slumped on the chair, her face was pale, and she was breathing heavily, looking like she was surviving the disaster.

 “You, have you always driven like this?”

 “What does it matter? It’s quite exciting, isn’t it?”

 Hearing Lucy's question, D turned his head and glanced at her.

“Hurry up and let me know when you’re ready.”

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　]

Lucy gritted her teeth and sat up now. She didn't want to expose her ugly appearance in front of this famous mercenary in Night City, so even though Lucy's legs and knees were weak at this moment, she still raised her head. , looking towards the base of the Whirlpool Gang ahead. The next moment, Lucy's expression changed slightly.

"The other party's subnet has been hacked...the camera has been read and is connecting...successfully. As in the information, this is an abandoned frozen food processing factory. Most of the area is underground, with only three doors leading to the outside. One is the garage, one is the front entrance, and one is the back entrance.”

 “Have you discovered the mission objective?”

"Yes, the target and some other prisoners are currently located in the original processing warehouse of the frozen food factory." "Block them and cut off their external communications. If reinforcements remind me, you don't need to worry about the rest."

“Okay, but there are military-grade turrets and mines inside, which I haven’t completely eliminated, and there’s also a gate...”

 “This is none of your business.”

 After saying this, D got out of the car and walked towards the headquarters of the Whirlpool Gang.

 “Hey…but…”

Seeing D's figure disappear, Lucy was stunned for a moment, but she hurriedly looked away and started her own job as a hacker. Originally, she wanted to tell D that the current control system of the door was locked, and even she couldn't Open immediately. But at this moment, through the surveillance camera, Lucy could see that D had arrived at the gate.

 Then, D turned around, kicked out a roundhouse, and kicked the heavy steel door directly with his right foot.

"boom!"

The next moment, the steel gate was turned into a pile of scrap metal by Duanmuhuai and flew backwards. As if they were aware of the danger, the two machine gun turrets at the door hurriedly turned their muzzles to aim forward - then the door was turned into scrap metal and was knocked over directly, and then exploded instantly, turning into two fireballs.

D, on the other hand, didn’t even look at them, and just walked straight in.

　　　…………”

 Lucy was shocked when she saw this scene.

If this was done by other mercenaries, then she might also doubt whether the other party had some kind of powerful military-grade prosthetic body. However, Lucy could guarantee that she had just scanned D, and the latter had even a little prosthetic body on him. There is no appearance at all, he is completely human!

No, even the prosthetic body cannot kick open such a heavy garage door! At least Lucy never saw it!

So why can she do it? !

 However, for D, this is just the beginning.

"what happened?!"

"who is it!"

At this moment, the Whirlpool Gang who heard the explosion also rushed out with weapons in hand.

Among the major gangs in Night City, the Uzumaki Gang is recognized as the craziest. The reason is very simple. This group of lunatics almost want to replace every part of their bodies with prosthetics. They don't even do this to themselves, they even capture some people and conduct various inhumane flesh and blood fusion experiments on them.

The same is true for the Uzumaki Gang members in front of me. Some of them even cut off their chins and tongues, leaving only the upper part of their heads. Others directly hollowed out their noses and eyes, and then installed a glowing red device. Implants - well, if this thing were placed in any slightly backward world, these guys would obviously be regarded as minions of the devil.

 In fact, what they do is no different from demons.

To the Inquisitor, these skulls are no longer pure heretics—there is only one end.

 “Go to hell!”

D took a step forward, and then the next moment she suddenly accelerated and rushed directly towards the target in front of her. At the same time, D raised her right hand, a hammer appeared in her hand, and she hit the Uzumaki Gang members in front of her hard!

The power hammer hit the head of the unlucky guy at the front, exploding his head like a tomato. Blood splattered everywhere, and pieces of meat mixed with brains and bones flew backwards. Before the first victim fell to the ground, D dodged forward again and pierced the chest of another Uzumaki Gang member with another hammer. The force of the impact was so violent that the opponent's entire body was directly driven by the force. Under the bombardment of the hammer, it exploded like a horse torn apart.

 “Uhhhhhhh!!”

Even the equally **** and cruel Uzumaki Gang couldn't bear this **** and cruel scene. After watching two of his companions being easily smashed by each other, the third man seemed to finally have a sense of fear. He was almost instinctive He clenched the firearm in his hand and fired desperately at the front.

I don’t know whether it was luck or bad luck, but his bullet happened to hit the mine that was originally set nearby. For a moment, there was fire and explosions, and at the same time, the stupid idiot was blown into pieces and scattered all over the place. Before the reinforcements behind him could react, the blazing flames suddenly exploded, and then the power hammer roared forward and smashed the whirlpool gang in front of him directly against the wall like a fly, turning it into a Pile the meat sauce.

And D also flashed by at this moment. I saw her right hand reaching out and grabbing the head of another Uzumaki Gang who raised his gun and aimed at her, and then grabbed it hard - those slender fingers seemed to have been trained with the Nine Yin White Bone Claw. It also directly penetrated the opponent's head, and then the unlucky guy was thrown forward by D like a bowling ball, hitting his companion behind him hard, hitting a grand slam, and for a while, the residual limbs flew everywhere, and blood was everywhere. Splattered everywhere, there was a mixture of mutilated human limbs and internal organs, as well as dilapidated prosthetic remains.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　]

Even though she was just watching this scene through the monitor, Lucy couldn't help but cover her mouth. To be honest, she had never gone on missions with mercenaries before. But this was the first time she had seen such a **** and violent battle. If she hadn't been sure that there were no implants in D's body, she would have even thought that the other party was having a cyberpsychotic episode!

 “Yes, it’s a cyber madman!”

 Obviously, Lucy didn't think so, but the Uzumaki Gang didn't think so. After witnessing the **** and brutal murder of their companions one after another, they finally collapsed and backed away screaming.

“Hurry up and notify the Terrorist Mobile Team!”

 “No! The communication has been interfered with!”

"How can it be……!"

　　　…………”

Listening to the screams of the Uzumaki Gang coming from the monitor, Lucy's expression was a little complicated. Could it be that D had anticipated this, so he told himself to cut off the communications of these guys...

Although the Uzumaki Gang has always been **** and brutal, D's more brutal fighting methods in front of him were a bit unbearable even for the Uzumaki Gang. They screamed and backed away, trying to run. However, this gave D an opportunity to take advantage of it. She was chasing her prey like a tiger. Those she caught up with were hit head-on with a hammer, turning them into **** pieces. D, on the other hand, did not even look at his prey and continued to move forward to find the next target.

 In just a short moment, almost all the Uzumaki Gang in the entire base were slaughtered, leaving only...

 “Boom!”

The wall beside D suddenly exploded, and then he saw a whirlpool gang driving a modified steel mecha, holding a machine gun, and staring at D fiercely.

 “That’s Brick, the boss of the Whirlpool Gang!”

 At this moment, Lucy also scanned the other party's identity and hurriedly reminded him.

"Be careful, D, he is equipped with military power armor! It is difficult to deal with!"

 Power armor, that’s it?

Hearing Lucy's reminder, D glanced at the heavy thing that was similar to the transporting mecha in Alien with disgust, and clenched the warhammer in his hand again.

 “Go to hell, you **** cybermaniac!”

At this moment, Brick had already shouted and rushed over. He aimed at the target in front of him and pulled the trigger. The heavy machine gun made a roaring sound, but D just swayed slightly, then quickened her pace and rushed towards Brick. In the blink of an eye, she broke through the fire blockade of the heavy machine gun and came to Brick.

 “Woo…!”

The opponent's unexpected speed also startled Brick, but as the boss of the Whirlpool Gang, he was certainly not so easily frightened. He hurriedly controlled the mecha to raise his other arm and smashed it hard at D - -This thing has been modified so that it can penetrate even steel plates. If this is the case, then it must...!

 “Boom!”

Brick didn't know what happened at all. He only remembered that he controlled the mecha to hit the opponent, and then there was a loud noise in his ears. The next moment, when Brick regained consciousness, he had already Lying on the ground, staring at the ceiling in front of him. The shining lights shone down, making Brick unable to open his eyes.

 What happened?

Brick turned his head to look and found that he fell to the ground like this, and his proud military mecha had now turned into twisted scrap metal, twisting his hands and feet like a meat grinder. in it.

 What on earth am I...

Brick raised his head again, only to see a black shadow raised high in front of him.

 Then fall.

 “Pfft!”

  Immediately afterwards, Brick's consciousness completely fell into darkness.
