The giant corporations that started in Night City

"Ott, your name is Ott Cunningham, strange... I know your name even though I'm seeing you for the first time."

V was very surprised. For some reason, he felt that he had a strange feeling for Ott, just like a close couple who had known each other for a long time.

This feeling was very strange.

"V, what I'm going to say next may be far beyond your imagination, so you must be mentally prepared in advance!"

Ott's expression was very serious, which made V's heart skip a beat, and his expression became visibly flustered.

"You...you go ahead."

V tried his best to control his breathing and tried to calm his slightly agitated mood, but as Ott's words fell, his face began to turn pale uncontrollably.

It turned out that the memories that did not belong to him in V's mind were all the consciousness data of Johnny Silverhand.

When V was hit in the head by Deshawn's bullet, the Relic chip started running the program.

In the next few weeks, Johnny Silverhand's consciousness will slowly cover V's brain, and V's personality consciousness will gradually disappear in the process of overlapping.

In simple terms, with the help of the Relic chip, V will forcibly help Johnny Silverhand to complete the program task of "rebirth"!

When V learned all this from Ott Cunningham, he suddenly felt a sense of doomsday. He couldn't believe that he just inserted a chip and it would lead to the annihilation of his soul.

"You mean... there's a stupid terrorist in my head who's eating my consciousness bit by bit, and then taking my body for himself?!"

V's voice was filled with tears of collapse. His good brother Jack's life and death were still unknown, and he was involved in the Arasaka family's patricide incident, and then was stabbed in the back by Deshaun...

And now, he finally saved his life, but he was forcibly taken over by a terrorist. The successive changes made V feel that his mental state was falling apart.

"Why is this happening! Can't you just pull out this damn chip?"

V stared at Otto in front of him with red eyes. He didn't want to die so early, and he didn't want to die in such a weird and aggrieved way.

This is really too cowardly!

"Sorry, V, you can't pull out the chip."

Ott Cunningham shook her head, and her compassionate eyes were also occupied by sadness.

Obviously, she didn't want Johnny Silverhand to reunite with her in this way.

"After the Relic chip program is activated, it will first devour a part of your neurons as a medium for data download, and then slowly transmit Johnny's consciousness to various parts of your brain and begin to reshape your personality."

"From now on, you will see Johnny's figure, hear his voice, and even your personality and thoughts will slowly be affected by Johnny."

"Once you forcibly pull out the chip, you will die quickly in severe pain, and that taste... may not be easier than being cut into pieces."

After learning that he could not pull out the chip and could not stop the chip program, V continued to suppress his collapse and tentatively asked Ott:

"Is there no way to stop all this, or... clear this guy's consciousness from my brain!"

In V's imagination, since there is no way to deal with this chip, there must be a way to deal with the data in the chip, just like deleting a certain data in the hard drive.

V's thinking speed is faster than Otto Cunningham imagined. She does know how to delete the data in the chip, but doing so will also bring great trouble.

Since the Relic chip is based on Johnny Silverhand's consciousness, V's original personality will be rejected by this body.

If Johnny Silverhand's consciousness data is deleted, V's brain nerves will be severely damaged, and the best postoperative result may only be to become a fragile ordinary person.

But V is likely to relapse, such as suddenly suffering from some brain disease and dying suddenly, and he will not live for more than a year or two.

And if this is done, V's brain nerves will no longer be able to support any prosthetic equipment installed on him. For mercenaries, this is completely self-destructive.

What's more... that's Johnny Silverhand's soul!

Otto can't kill the person he loves deeply. Once Johnny's consciousness is removed, there will be no trace of Johnny Silverhand in this world.

In this way, Johnny's biological gene samples retained by LA Company will no longer have any meaning!

Even if Ultra used the power of the AI ​​White Queen to carefully extract the data of Johnny Silverhand's consciousness, there was no guarantee that there would be no packet loss.

What if a key data packet was missing, causing Johnny Silverhand to become a fool, a thug, or a murderous pervert, or even worse, the data loss made it impossible to restart the body!

Ultra couldn't afford any of the above results.

"Ultra, can't you think of another way? Please help this poor child... He just wants to live, there's nothing wrong with that."

Victor sighed sadly. Although he and V had not known each other for a long time, the deep relationship they had established was like that between father and son.

Victor did not want V to die young in the end.

"There is another way... but it will be very risky, and I cannot guarantee the success rate of this operation."

Ott took a deep breath, and her mood became heavier than ever before. Obviously, she did not even want to say this bad solution.

"Ott, tell me, it is better to have a solution than not."

Victor and V looked at Ott Cunningham together, hoping to find a chance to survive from her words. Even if the hope was slim, it was worth a try.

"Okay, then I'll tell you."

Ott took out a separation chip and presented it to V, then she slowly said: "It's difficult to extract Johnny's consciousness data, but it's very simple to extract your consciousness."

"Because your body has begun to reject your personality, the operation will be much easier."

"I can extract your consciousness first, and then wait until Johnny has completely adapted to your body, and then find a way to extract his consciousness, and finally let you return to your body."

"If you do this..."

Before Ott Cunningham finished speaking, V immediately rejected this outrageous plan. This is simply crazy!

The souls of two people went back and forth in his body so many times. Is this really reasonable!
