People are in Night City, start to add points

Following David's hoarse and uneasy voice, a look of surprise burst out on Cockscomb's face.

But then, his facial features instantly became stiff.

click, bang—

It was the sound of the brain computer exploding due to overheating, and then the three people standing in front of David shook and fell to the ground at the same time.

what's the situation? !

Seeing this scene, David couldn't help showing a look of astonishment. He obviously hasn't uploaded the puppet yet!

Another hacker?

But he didn't have time to think about it, and he didn't even have time to upload the puppet. There was already a burst of cursing behind him, and the remaining tiger claw gangsters standing at the entrance of the alley rushed up immediately after witnessing the death of their companions.

With a curse in his heart, David stretched his hand to the inner layer of his clothes, where the treasure of four seasons was hidden.

There was already fine cold sweat oozing from his forehead. At such a close distance, even if he had just tapped the flesh, without the corresponding skills, it would be difficult to fight against many with one.

I won't suffer...

As soon as this idea appeared, he suddenly heard a gust of wind coming from above his head.

The girl with short white hair swung down from the roof next to her, using the monomolecular thread as a 'rope'.

call--

The sound of the wind approached, passed by David, and pushed him away.

It took only a second or two, and then David saw another monomolecular thread whipped towards the Tiger Claw gangsters, and a thrown dagger also brushed past the girl's shoulder.

The blood burst out.

ps: overslept QAQ, just woke up

Volume 125: Chapter 120 Chapter [-] [-]: Chemical Toxins

Everything happened in an instant, and David only had time to raise his head and turn his head before he was pushed aside.

And the dagger that was supposed to land on his back also brushed against the girl's shoulder, and finally landed on the iron pipe behind the wall, making a "dang" sound.

"Fuck!"

"Go together--"

At the same time, the remaining few Tiger Claw gangsters also rushed forward, and the long or short knives reflected a glare.

whoosh-

There was no expression fluctuation on Lucy's face. She shook the monomolecular thread that had already been thrown, and the extremely thin and sharp thread suddenly lit up with a dark red light, passing across the bodies of those people.

Like a soda pop that was shaken for a long time and opened, blood sprayed out from different parts and angles, interweaving into sheets in the air.

A few seconds passed from beginning to end, and all the Tiger Claw gangsters had turned into corpses and fell to the ground.

Scanning the front with sharp eyes, after confirming that there was no living person, Lucy's expression relaxed a bit, but at the same time, she seemed to be enduring some pain.

Seeing that the wound on her shoulder was still oozing blood, her figure was shaking slightly, and her expression was not quite right, David hurried forward to support her.

[Target's current state: Infested by chemical substances]

Chemical material?

Hearing this word, David immediately thought of the "biochemical plug-in" that can be installed on some cold weapons such as the "Praying Mantis Knife" in the 2077 game.

His fingers trembled, and he felt uncontrollably flustered.

In the words of the game, the function of this thing is to apply the poisoning effect, but the reality is not a game, it will not deduct the life value bit by bit, and then wait for you to take various antidotes.

If it cannot be resolved in time, the effect of the toxin is likely to leave serious sequelae, even fatal!

"I'll take you to the hospital."

Suppressing the tension and uneasiness in his heart, David said as calmly as possible.

"No, don't go."

David felt the forearm in his hand exerting a slight downward force, as if he wanted to wave his hand, but he failed to do so.

After a short pause, the girl added in a low voice.

"There are still many people from the Tiger Claw Gang rushing here, it may only take a few minutes... help me to the intersection."

David pursed his lips, hesitated for a moment, and finally chose to believe her judgment.

When the two walked out of the alley side by side, a tattered red motorcycle with a lot of bump marks slowly drove over.

"It's not smooth, and it was knocked over halfway through the drive, but it's still usable."

Barely forcing a smile, Lucy raised her chin forward.

"Come and drive to this address."

This is not Lucy's car.

In David's mind, the image of the girl getting the news from nowhere, and then randomly stepping on a motorcycle by the side of the road, hacking into the anti-theft system, and rushing towards him.

He nodded silently, first helped Lucy up, and then picked up a dusty helmet left by the Tiger Claw gangsters from the ground, and put it on his head.

Lucy originally wanted to make a joke, such as 'I didn't expect you to respect the traffic rules', but her head became more and more dizzy, and she felt nauseous, so she had to swallow what she didn't say.

Seeing the boy turn over and get on the motorcycle, she subconsciously leaned forward and hugged him, then closed her sore eyes.

Along the way, neither of them spoke again.

In such silence, the motorcycle came to a certain building in the valley area, and found an iron gate with a pink and purple minivan parked outside.

Behind the iron door was a dark and damp staircase. David supported Lucy all the way down. After walking about two floors, the front finally opened up, and a wide space with reclining chairs and various instruments appeared.

"You don't look well."

A black woman with dreadlocks is sitting in front of the computer.Her eyes were fitted with blue external prostheses. She first glanced at David, who was still wearing a helmet, and then set her gaze on Lucy.

Obviously, the two of them have known each other for a long time.

At this time, David also found the prosthetic doctor from his memory. In the Edgewalker anime, when David fell into a coma due to repeated use of Sian Wistan, the doctor Lucy contacted was her.

This guy is not a good person, and I'm afraid he has some unclear connection with the scavenger. She was going to remove David's prosthetic body and sell it for money, and even drew a gun on Lucy who didn't agree.

Thinking of this, David felt even more uneasy. He quietly hacked into the pseudo doctor's brain, and then helped Lucy onto the patched recliner.

"Small matter, treat the wound for me, and then bring me a bottle of medicine."

Compared with just now, Lucy's face was a little pale at this time, she took a few breaths, and then said in a hoarse voice.

"Tsk tsk, chemical toxins."

First, he took a look, and then the prosthetic doctor dug out several bottles and jars, and walked to Lucy's side.

Fuck, don't you wear gloves!

David resisted the urge to question, and stared at the doctor's hand, watching her wipe off the blood from Lucy's wound, and then apply various medicines.

The wound was not too big, so there was no complicated process of suturing it up. After cleaning it, wrap it with gauze and it's done.

"Take this."

After finishing this, the prosthetic doctor clapped his hands, picked up a bottle of 'Qinglizhi Type 1' from the shelf next to it, and stuffed it into Lucy's hand.

"Okay, it's over. But in the next few days, you'd better calm down. The effects of chemicals won't be eliminated so quickly. It's normal to have high fever and vomiting..."

"and many more!"

Seeing her turn to leave, David panicked.

His mind is now full of the poor environment and medical conditions here, and the terrible consequences of wound infection and so on.

Who knows if an accident will happen!

"That's it? Don't you need to check again, or..."

"fine."

As soon as he said this, Lucy's voice suddenly sounded behind him.

The girl had injected 'Qingli Zhizhi Type 1' into her arm, and her expression was obviously relaxed.

She struggled to get up and stood on the ground.

"The money is gone."

After speaking to the prosthetic doctor, Lucy held David's arm and whispered.

"Let's go."

Under her resolute attitude, David hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

However, the program he implanted into the prosthetic doctor's brain machine did not withdraw, but began to search the communication records and memory system - anyway, the treatment is over, so there is no need to worry about it.

The two left the room, returned to the stairs, and slowly went up step by step.

"Is it really okay?"

David still couldn't hold back, and asked.

"It's just ordinary toxins. The deadly chemicals are controlled substances, and most people can't get them. The destructive power of this thing is much greater than that of automatic rifles."

Lucy shook her head slightly, and after explaining this, she added another sentence.

"And, I'm used to it."

At this moment, the iron gate to leave was just ahead, but Lucy suddenly stopped in her tracks.

She let go of David's arm and leaned against the wall behind, showing a complex expression of various emotions.

Volume 126: Chapter 120 Chapter [-] Chapter [-]: Honesty

Seeing her stop, David's expression moved slightly, as if he had a premonition of something.

At this time, the sunlight outside the building seeped in through the gap in the center of the iron door, outlining vertical strips of light and shade on the ground, walls, and the two of them.

After a brief silence, the girl still had a hoarse voice.

"Actually, I don't work at Company Square."

"Ok?"

"I'm a mercenary."

The sudden frankness made David speechless for a moment, and he paused before responding with a smile.

"I can see that company dogs don't have such good skills."

"Did you see that?"

As if she had organized her words in her heart, Lucy's voice became steady and her expression gradually became colder.

She knew very well that although today's shot was an accident, after showing a fighting ability that was different from ordinary people, the identity of a 'company employee' obviously could no longer be pretended.

"Then do you see that the reason why I approach you is purely for use?"

After saying what was brewing, Lucy let out a light breath, and had already made the final decision in her heart.

"You are a smart person, you should understand...we are not from the same world."

Perhaps because of the implicit apology to him, after realizing that the original disguised identity could not be maintained, Lucy chose a 'showdown'.

She also hesitated, worried that the secret would be leaked and the mission would fail, but in the end, she couldn't resist the surge of certain emotions in her heart.

What's more, Lucy is quite confident in her vision, she can see that he is not a pure company dog, and he will not report anything to put her in danger.

She stretched her hand to her waist, hesitated for a moment and still did not take out the cigarette case.

After this time, it will really only go further and further.

Without looking at the boy next to her, Lucy walked towards the iron gate alone with a calm, even indifferent expression.

"Why did you come to save me?"

Suddenly, a boy's voice sounded behind him.

Lucy just froze for a moment and didn't stop.

She heard the subtext in this sentence, a mercenary who only wanted to use him for profit, would not save others at the cost of his own injury.
