Cyber ​​psychosis is my girlfriend

"Hi, V, this is Lucky."

Luo Qi picked up the phone, clicked on the speaker, turned around slowly, and enjoyed the wonderful time of salted fish rolling.

This action is indeed a bit weird - in Night City, guys who have not yet received implant modification, and use PDA externally, are as rare as the iguana in the Lesser Antilles, which is on the verge of extinction.

Being in a good mood, he even had the urge to sing "Two Tigers" in Mowell's ear, but the bluntness in V's tone quickly dissipated the playful mood.

"Lucky, I need your help."

V's voice is no longer as bold as before, but a little bit more aggrieved.

"what's up?"

Luo Qi sat up from the bed without thinking, and began to dress neatly.

In the matter between brothers, there is never a need to say thank you, and there is never a need to talk about sorry.

Brothers sometimes settle accounts clearly, but more often they are unconditional.

To ask why?

Without the guidance of V and Jack during the half a year in Night City, no matter how strong Luo Qi's body is, he might have become a street boy who rotted in the trash can long ago.

Sincere sincerity, which is already rare, is priced ten times, one hundred times, one thousand times in Night City, and even has a price but no market.

hesitate?

what is that?

Under Luo Qi's actions, even Mowell was attracted, quietly listening to the news from the other side of the phone.

"Panan, do you have any impression? Something happened to their camp."

V swallowed his saliva, and started talking about the situation in the wind of the bad land.

"Parnam Palmer? Can you not remember? I have never seen a woman like that in my life."

Luo Qi shook his head with a smile, looked at Mowell again, and added silently in his heart.

Suzi is not a female man, but a female waaaaagh! !

These two things are not in the same order of magnitude.

Of course he didn't dare to say it out—Suzi seemed to be slowly starting to care about her own image.

"Yes, that's her."

V didn't know anything about his brother assisting Panan, "The leader of Adekado, Sol was captured by the Chaos Knife Society."

What did you say

Hearing this, Luo Qi's first reaction was - "Eldest brother is not good! Master was captured by monsters again!"

As one of the leaders of Adekado, one of the seven tribes of the homeless, he was captured by a group of vicious bandits?

What kind of onion news is this?

"I know it sounds weird, but it was an accident." V could understand what Luo Qi meant without explaining, "When Sol led the patrol out, he was ambushed by the Chaos Knife Society."

"Good guy, it turned out that the boat capsized in the gutter."

Luo Qi said while bouncing through his pants.

Mowell reached out a hand from behind and helped him pull up his knotted trouser legs.

Luo Qi smiled at her, and simply sat down on her bed, and began to tidy up his trousers and socks: "What do I need to do?"

"There are a lot of people in the Chaos Knife Club. Adecado lost a quarter of the fighters after the previous attacks..." V relayed what he saw and heard in Adecado's camp, "Equipment It was robbed, and the supplies were still stuck in Reno, unable to deliver."

Reno, a city in the west of Nevada, USA, is a highway transportation hub, located in the north of Night City.

It hurts to get stuck on the road for a nomad who lives like a nomad.

"A quarter? So much?"

Luo Qi knew that the death rate in Night City was very high, but he didn't expect it to be so high.

At that time in the Jackson Plains, several cars of Adecado wanderer fighters sent by Saul played a considerable role in the hijacking of the Kangtao floating vehicle. It can even be said that they were one of the main executors of the operation. one.

But those friends who were either heroic or hearty, and also frank and straightforward, suffered such a big loss.

He had heard the news from Rogge.

As one of the seven major nationalities in the United States, Adekado has a scale of about [-].The main activities are on the west coast and nearer inland areas, including California, Arizona, Nevada, and Oregon.

The team that came to Night City has about [-] people, so they have more than [-] combatants who are all soldiers.

But in the process of exchanging fire with the bastards of the Chaos Knife Society and trying to rescue Sol, he lost a quarter, that is, more than 70 people.

This news made Luo Qi's good mood disappear all day.

"The last thing I want is for good people to die because of simple stupidity."

These are Roger's words.

But Luo Qi found that he was not qualified to judge the actions of the homeless.

Because they are originally a group of people who have been reshaped and reborn in Nirvana during their long-term wandering.

They have never stopped following the journey of survival, and when they die for survival, the journey will come to an end, but this is their life.

"If it wasn't for earning a fortune from Rogge and using it to purchase equipment, this number may be even greater."

V sighed, and he could tell that the situation in the camp was not very good.

"Okay." Luo Qi nodded, and gave Mowell a questioning look. With the latter's affirmative nod, he replied, "Suzi and I will be there soon."

……

Camp Adecado, outside the east of town, between Highway 101 and Rocky Ridge.

Located in the endless bad land, together with those deserted towns, burning tires or wreckage, withered vegetation, and bleak background mountains, they participate in this somewhat bleak wasteland landscape drama.

In the daytime when the sun is high, the bad land only has this kind of picture, especially when it is close to the Adekado camp, that kind of vibrant scene blows across the face.

Getting off Delaman, a "professional errand runner", and stepping on the "burping" sand with his off-road military boots, Luo Qi felt as if he had come to the "Western Cowboy" era.

But super-heavy industrial trucks (responsible for moving), rusty tall fan blades (responsible for wind power generation), neatly unfolded multi-functional mobile prefab houses with people coming and going...

This series of sights can only be seen in homeless camps with a certain scale, strength and order, and it really caught Luo Qi's eyes.

In a sense, when he saw this "2077 cyberpunk style" homeless stronghold, the expression that he had never seen the "world" had already betrayed him mercilessly.

"Oh my god, that's so cool."

Of course, only without bloody conflicts and brutal competitions can he appreciate all this with a good mood.

Now he and Mowell hadn't come here just to drink tea and chat and take a drive in the car.

This is not a resort.

This is both the home of the Rangers and the forward base from which they launch their attacks.

Facing the constant scrutiny, Luo Qi saw V and the others gathered under a tarpaulin that was stretched out.

V and Panan were having a fight with some people, but luckily the conflict didn't escalate.

Mitch, who speaks a bit of weight because of his strength in the clan, and Scorpion, who always wears a hood and looks like a sophomore in imitation of master assassins, are smoothing things over.

People with reputation and status, and those who can gain the trust of the clansmen, often speak well.

That's the case with Mitch and Scorpion.

"Two more foreign aid." A female homeless woman with long sloping hair, wearing a wild bulletproof vest, put her hands on the front of the car, frowned, and looked at Luo Qi and Mowell somewhat unkindly.

Luo Qi looked at her, and read something called "xenophobia" and "distrust" from that look.

"Hello." Luo Qi nodded as he looked at the middle-aged uncle Mitch with a somewhat taller hairline.

"Hello." Mitch also nodded at him, very capable and not greasy at all.

"Hey, Lucky." V ​​bumped fists with him.

"Why didn't you see Jack?"

After gaining a firm foothold, Luo Qi looked around, but couldn't find the imaginary idiot.

"Jack has something to do, so he can't come." After V finished speaking, he added, "He's busy with the priest."

"Okay." Knowing that Jack was fine, Luo Qi immediately turned his attention to everyone.

He didn't come here to chat about family affairs.

"How is the enemy's situation? Have you figured it out?" Luo Qi asked.

"There are a lot of people in the Chaos Knife Club." V explained, "Mitch sent a drone to their camp to go around, and the idea is a bit tricky."

"The Chaotic Knife Society is entrenched in an abandoned cement factory and is equipped with a lot of heavy weapons." Panan, who was standing aside, said, "These people are simply locusts, they will eat up everything they go, and then continue... ..."

"But this time it's different, they installed some rudimentary security devices."

Panan continued to analyze, "This shows that they have a plan to stay. The reason is uncertain, but I guess it may have something to do with Sol. He should still be inside. We have to find a way to get in."

"We have already observed the layout of the cement factory. There is a corridor or overpass from the garage to the main building. Sol is likely to be locked in there. We will start from here."

V recounted the details he got from the drone detection to Luo Qi.

"Very well, then I'll save Sol."

Luo Qi nodded, indicating that he was ready to leave at any time.

"Mitch, is the car ready?" Panan asked sharply.

"I've tried my best, let's go and have a look." Mitch nodded, and walked ahead, leading the way for everyone.

Panan followed without hesitation, but after walking a few meters, he turned his head and greeted Luo Qi and Mowell: "Thank you."

"What? You treat V as one of your own, so you don't regard us as friends?"

Luo Qi smiled and said, "Help each other, that's all. I like Adekado more than company dogs and gangsters."

After saying this, the members of other homeless families in the camp had a much better impression of Luo Qi.

Compared with high-sounding communication, this straightforward attitude won their favor.

Not to mention the previous cooperation experience.

Some people become enemies as they walk, and some people become friends as they walk.

On the south side of the camp, on a relatively flat dry land, several modified vehicles were parked.

One is the famous homeless weapon, Mizutani Falcon and Wolf; the other is the V340-F cargo truck of Villefort Columbus, an excellent mid-to-low-end truck produced in 2068; the last one is a look at the exterior , the Ting Wei Mackinac "War Horse", which is unforgettable, is a wasteland chariot modified by Larrymore, equipped with two rapid-fire machine guns.

Adekado, especially Adekado in Saul's team, is indeed quite rich.

Guns and cyber bikes.

That's what Rangers hold on to as a lifeline.

They have no home, except for the clan caravan.Nor do they have any rights, except those obtained through hard work.He will also be driven out of the city by the police, raided by road fighters, and hunted down by the company's guards...

But they survived only because they had guns and locomotives.

The homeless camp is here, women and children are all here.

It's not a gang, these are their families.

Homeless, I had to take my home with me and wander in this fragmented land.

And what would the chaos be?

That's a good question, because maybe even they don't know what their ingredients are.

Robbers, criminals and outcasts?Or simply road madness?

At the ceremony, the elders of the homeless will formally pronounce a "red name" idiot a Chaos Knife Society, and expel the guilty from the community forever.And after they were exiled, they formed a dangerous gang, wandering the roads and suburbs in search of prey.

If anything could describe it best, it would be packs of hyenas reeking of dead carcasses.

Raffen Shiv - This name is a combination of several derogatory terms.

Raff means waste, and in German, Raffen means greedy grab. Shiv is relatively simple. It is a weapon that is not easy to mess with anyway.

Hearing this compound word, you don't even need to see these American lunatics yelling "Whoah!" in the Badlands all day long, to imagine their terrible image in your head.

According to the law of "There are always more criminals than good people", there are many members of the Chaos Knife Society, but they are not enough to form a cohesive family, tribe, or even a nation.

They just fight on their own, like itinerant gangs.
