LRAB Chapter 59
Chapter 59
Chapter 59: Goods in hand.
The”Night Wanderers” troop, formed by the”Ran Dao Society”, is trying to snatch the target of Jack’s mission, the mysterious cargo from”military technology”.
The person in charge asked Jack and his team to rush to support them, but that was the”Night Wanderers” troop. How could Jack and Ali face a team of seven or eight armored vehicles?
Driving a rented car to hit someone’s fully armed jeep with steel armor? Before he even drove over, he was shot to death by them with weapons.
After Ali heard what Jack Wells said, Jack meant to give up the mission. It was not worth dying for 12,000 euros.
The main reason was that there were too many opponents, and the two of them were weak and it was too dangerous to force them to participate in the battle. Yes, for Jack Wells, who was still a street gangster in 2075, it was too reluctant to fight against the”Night Wanderers” with seven or eight armored vehicles.
In a battle like this that would cost his life, Ali should take Jack to avoid the sharp edge first, and then he would fight alone.
But at this moment, Ali suddenly didn’t want to do this. Instead, he felt something: if he really protected Jack behind him this time, was that really what Jack wanted? Did he want to be protected? And how long could Ali protect Jack?
“Ah Li, what do you think? Should we still do this business?”
“Of course I have no problem, I’m just worried that you can’t handle it”
“Good boy, since you dare to fight, then old Jack will definitely sacrifice his life for you. We in Heywood are not cowards.”
“Are you sure?”
Jack Wells took out two”Golden Bitch” rifles, loaded them, and looked ready.
“All right then.”
Since Jack had said so, Ali’s car speed suddenly increased, and he stepped on the accelerator to increase the speed even more. The meaning was very clear, they were determined to step into this muddy water!
“Jack, would you rather be a nobody, live a quiet life, and die in bed with a catheter inserted? Or would you rather be famous even if you don’t live to be 30?”
“Nobody? Or famous?”
Ali couldn’t help but ask the most famous question in Cyberpunk, because it concerns the future and the attitude that Ali should use to help them.
After all, people like Jack, Female V, and David who refuse to admit defeat, they certainly don’t want to be protected like flowers in a greenhouse. Each of them is arrogant and they think they are made of steel and iron, and are not good enough for swords and guns!
At the same time, Ali is not a nanny. He can’t protect them for a lifetime, and they are not willing to let Ali protect them. Instead of letting Ali worry about them getting hurt, it is better to let them fly higher and farther!
If Jack answers”peaceful life” for a lifetime, then Ali will find a way to find a career for him, just like he said, a househusband, ordinary and monotonous, but safe and sound.
But if Jack chooses to”live before the age of 30″ and still be vigorous, what else can Ali do? He can only help to the best of his ability, or push him from behind, let him experience more and become stronger. Even if Jack will die in the end, Ali will let him die happily, die on the battlefield, and finally toast him a glass of wine at the funeral, and order a glass of”Jack Wells” in the next life, so that he will not live up to this life!
“good question!”
“The questions asked by intellectuals are thought-provoking.”
Jack Wells was silent. It was obvious that he was seriously thinking about the question raised by Ali. In fact, this question was easy to answer. If he chose”An Sheng”, he would not be Jack Wells!
“Old Jack has high ambitions. A man who eats three bowls of rice per meal is destined to become a legend. I would rather die gloriously and become a legend than live in peace for the rest of my life!”
“I want to be like Johnny Silverhand!”
Hearing Jack Wells’ answer, Ali smiled. This answer was exactly what he thought. Right, this is what Jack is. He is not afraid of anything except Jack Wells who lives a cowardly life. It’s just a pity.
Ali sighed, but his heart suddenly felt a little sour. It would be great if Jack could”live in peace”. Yes, he was right. Old Jack’s heart was higher than the sky, but unfortunately his life was thinner than paper.
Because Jack Wells was a cyberpunk, a cyberpunk who was unwilling to admit defeat and desperately squeezed to the upper class. What is cyberpunk?
Is it freedom? Is it disobedience? Is it not accepting fate? No, no, no, cyberpunks know what they are doing and what they want. Even if they can sense in their hearts that this result may bring death, they still choose to live towards death without hesitation!
“Hahahaha! Legend? Are legends so attractive?”
“Yes, brother Ali,”Legend” is really attractive!”
Jack Wells said firmly
“So sit back, Jack, and remember your choice, we’re off!”
“where to?”
“”Go to hell!”
Ali stepped on the accelerator hard, and the sudden strong push on Jack’s back pressed Jack against the backrest of the car seat. Jack Wells was also excited by Ali’s words!
Soon, in the wilderness outside the Night City, seven or eight”Night Ghost” armored vehicles were attacking a long-abandoned iron house.
They fired machine guns at the house that was almost collapsed, making small holes in the fragile iron sheet one after another. It seems that the person who took over inside has gone to see the Cyber God.
“It’s been a long time since I saw such a large group of”night ghosts” gathered together. What on earth attracts them?”
“Anyway, when will Panam and Sol arrive? I can’t wait to give them a fucking blast.”
“Don’t worry, Scorpion, I’m rushing them.”
Not far away, Mitch Anderson and the mercenary Scorpion from Adecado, their implanted prosthetic eyes were using telescopes to observe the”Night Wandering Ghost Army” not far away. Mitch’s eyes flashed with lights, and it was obvious that he was also contacting his companions.
Mitch was a member of the Bright family.
These wanderers belonged to the state of Dedo.
In the war of unification, Mitch cooperated with other people from Adecado to fight for the Free State.
The armored division he belonged to was equipped with elite combat hovercraft and other armed vehicles.
After returning from the front line, Mitch worked for the Adecado family’s smuggling operations and even joined the Adecado family.
An ordinary life may be more suitable for him than a battlefield.
He is a good friend of Panam and one of the most respected members of the family.
He is very loyal to his friends and will not give in to other people outside.
“Wait, there are special circumstances!”
“Someone is coming, a red car!”
“Jack, I’ll give you the steering wheel!”
Just then, a red car drove over from not far away and immediately attracted the attention of all the”Night Walkers”. Ali’s figure instantly flashed from the driver’s seat to the roof of the car. He took out two guns, one”Maloryan Overture” and one”Unity”, and the muzzles of the guns flashed with cold light!
【[Epic Gunner] Activate!
Silence, as if everything has quieted down. As the skill is activated, the instinct of the epic gunner is instantly aroused. Everything in Ali’s eyes seems to have stopped in time.
The air around him and the touch of the pistol are engraved in his mind. The enemies in front of him seem to have all turned into huge human-shaped gun targets in front of him.
Ali can feel that the gun in his hand is like his own finger. Just a slight flick of the fingertips, the trigger is reversed and a deadly fire snake is immediately sprayed out!
“”Bang, bang!”
Two guns fired, and the bullets shot through the heads of the two”night-walking ghosts” at an extremely strange and tricky angle, blood splattered everywhere, and the two head-blasted corpses softened in an instant!
All this happened in a flash, too fast, Ali’s shooting skills were so fast that the surrounding night-walking ghosts had no time to react at all.
They looked at it in confusion until the headless bodies of their companions lay limply on the ground, and until the smell of blood filled their noses, they all reacted!
“Enemy attack, enemy attack, turn around and attack them!”
“He’s dead, it’s all their fault!”
“If you mess with us, you’ve kicked steel!”
All the”Night Walkers” immediately became agitated. They were shocked by the other party’s shooting skills and immediately responded by carrying countless machine guns and cannons towards Ali’s position. When they were ready to shoot, they felt a sharp flash of lightning in their heads, and then their eyes went black.
“Oh shit, there’s a black guy!”
“Ah, my brain is going to melt!”
“Why can’t I see it!”
The rented car couldn’t withstand so much fire, so Ali stood on the roof and decisively activated his [Epic Hacking Technique】！
“”Awesome Li, go ahead and kill them, leave the steering wheel to me, old Jack has been no pushover these years!”
Jack Wells immediately clamped the out-of-control steering wheel from the passenger seat, turned sideways to the driver’s seat at a rapid speed, and then the car made a big turn on the spot!
After braking the car, Jack opened the door and used it as a cover. The two”golden ruthless women” began to harvest these”night wandering ghosts” with smoking heads.”！
“Bang, bang, bang!”
The”Night Wanderers” whose heads were hacked had become fixed targets. It was a piece of cake for Jack Wells to hit them. Since Ali did not have an artificial eye and a proper brain receiving system, his hacking skills could not maximize the damage with only the basic brain program given by the system.
Even so, under the [Epic Hacker] technology, the”Night Wanderers” who did not have anti-hacker interference implants installed in their heads could not resist those who were installed but of poor quality. Their heads were hacked so hard that they lost their ability to move.
Only a few lonely”Night Wanderers” with smoke all over their bodies were still twitching. They were equipped with good-quality”anti-hacker” implants, so for a while They will be able to recover after that!
Unfortunately, when they came to their senses, it was too late. They could only see an illusory”black shadow” rushing at them at a terrifying speed!
Ali activated two electromagnetic mantis knives and used the extreme speed mode of”Sian Westin” to instantly kill into the array of”Night Wandering Ghosts”. Before they could react, he started a one-sided massacre!
The extreme shadow flickered, and there were no living people wherever”Shadow” passed. There were no intact corpses after being killed by the mantis knife. After a period of killing, Ali came to the last”Night Wandering Ghost”. Under his shocked and pleading eyes,”Shadow” indifferently raised the mantis knife on his arm and split it in half with one knife.
“Sizzle……”
The electromagnetic energy of the mantis knife evaporated the blood, bringing up wisps of smoke and a”sizzling” sound. The smell of burnt rust emanated from the blade of the mantis knife.
Ali stood in the armored convoy of the”Night Wanderers” and slowly put away his electromagnetic mantis knife with blood on it. At this time, his surroundings were already covered with blood and flesh, and corpses were scattered all over the place.
“Shit, am I dazzled?”Sian Westin” and”Electromagnetic Mantis Knife” are all high-end products whose quality is hard to tell. What the hell are those monsters?”
Mitch in the distance felt his eyes dazzled, and the group of”night walkers” were all chopped down under the car. Although the big guy hiding behind the car and shooting was also a good shooter, it was still within Mitch’s acceptable range. After all, Mitch was also a soldier who had served in the army and participated in the war. But what about the guy over there who has a mantis knife implanted and whose figure cannot be seen clearly? Where did this real terror come from?
Whether it is the shooting skills at the beginning, or the use of”Sian Westin”, and the terrifying hacking technology that can instantly hack a group of people!
Any one of these can easily become”famous”. Mitch has been active in Night City and the Badlands for so many years, what intelligence, what tall The characters in the story all know something about him, but even if he racked his brains, he couldn’t recognize the person in front of him!
This guy seemed to appear out of nowhere. Where did this pervert come from? Did he reach the peak as soon as he debuted? Is this guy really a normal person, not a humanoid machine?
Mitch was complaining crazily in his mind. As we all know, the stronger the ability of the implant, the greater its side effects. The dark figure had so many implants with high side effects implanted all over his body. If it were an ordinary person, even if he had just one implant, he might immediately become mentally ill. He had so many implants and nothing happened? Could it be that this guy’s brain was made of steel?
“Mitch, don’t say”Fuck” first. I have good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear?”
At this time, Scorpion said at the side. He also saw the battlefield clearly through the implanted artificial eye. At this moment, his voice was a little nervous.
“It’s already this late, why are you still keeping us in suspense? Just say it straight… Never mind, let me tell you the good news first!”
“The good news is that all the”night walkers” are dead, so we can avoid a fierce battle later.”
“Nonsense, my implanted prosthetic eye is not broken and I am not blind!”
“Ahem.”
Scorpion cleared his throat and pointed awkwardly to a place not far away where the big guy and the scary”black shadow” were raising their weapons towards the hill where they were hiding:”The bad news is that they seem to have discovered us!”
“Damn it, Scorpio, why didn’t you tell me earlier!”
“You didn’t even ask!”
Mitch was so scared that sweat was pouring down his back.
“First of all, Jack, did you forget to call me”Shadow” when you go out? Did you call me the wrong name just now?”
“Is this true?”
“have!”
“I’m sorry.……”Shadow”, maybe I forgot it in my excitement… This is my fault, there won’t be a next time.”
Since Jack has already made a promise, Ali didn’t say anything more, just patted Jack on the shoulder and told him to be more careful next time.
Now, the night ghosts have been cleared out, and Ali and Jack successfully found the goods they wanted to take from the iron house. Among several bloody corpses beaten by bullets, there was a blood-stained, black and heavy safe.
The surface of the box was printed with the”Military Technology” logo. Ali and Jack looked at the goods. It seemed that their mission target was this thing.
It was sad to say that a group of people fought desperately and even lost their lives just for this ordinary-looking black safe in front of them.
“Damn, this box is quite heavy, at least several dozen kilograms”
“It’s normal to feel heavy. After all, this box weighs dozens of kilograms and contains more than a dozen lives.”
“That’s true.”
Jack Wells lifted the box without saying anything. The box was heavy and he had to work hard to lift it back to the warehouse behind the car.
Then Ali came to Jack Wells, switched his arms to gorilla arms and switched out the destruction cannon, aiming at a hill in the distance.
“You two in the distance, why haven’t you come out to say hello after watching for so long? Do you need me to fire a cannon to welcome you?”
“What? There are still enemies hiding?!”
Jack Wells was shocked. He took out the”Golden Bitch” that he had just taken back and aimed at the position where the muzzle of Ali’s cannon was aimed!
“Wait, wait, wait, don’t open fire yet, we are from”Adecado”, we are not the same as”Night Walker”, we have no hostility towards you!”
