Chapter 101
The little girl Chaomeng felt more and more frightened as she looked at Li Nuo.
The demon hunter's pupils will emit a yellow shimmer at night, which is completely different from the technological light of prosthetic eyes. It is a sinister light that comes from deep inside the body like a cold-blooded animal.
The girl turned around and tried to run away, but almost ran into the monster's open mouth.
boom!
The bullet popped out of the mouth of Malorian's pistol and made a bloody hole in the monster's upper chamber!
The monster let out a suppressed roar and flew towards Li Nuo who injured it.
The distance of more than ten meters was instantly shortened.
Li Nuo pulled the trigger a second time.
The bullet hit the monster's arm before it bit down, and [Gun Reverse] was triggered!
The monster's movements were extremely weird, twisting backwards, and it was frozen as if high-voltage electricity had penetrated its entire body.
Li Nuo pulled out his cane, and the tip of the cane rubbed against the ground to generate sparks. The body of the cane split and deformed into a long jagged knife, which quickly cut into the monster's body and hooked out its liver with the force of [visceral critical attack].
At the last moment, Li Nuo took a step back, swung his sword horizontally and transformed the whip blade, and danced the silver-white whip blade to break the monster's neck.
Blood bloomed like the flower of death in the night.
Li Nuo hurriedly used [Retreat] to avoid the spurting blood.
"Ouch... I almost got blood all over my body..."
Li Nuo slammed the whip blade onto the ground. After a sound of metal friction, the whip blade turned back into a cane.
Then he looked at the little girl sitting on the ground with a panicked look on his face. He walked over and smiled...
In the girl's eyes, it was a smile that was even more psychotic than gambling...
Girl: "Don't, don't kill me..."
Li Nuo He put away his smile, stared into the eyes and said, "I'm so busy... why should I kill you?" "
But you're not..."
"Isn't it normal for two people to die in a conflict of interest?" Li Nuo crouched down to the monster. Ahead, he muttered: "Go along the main road, it's safer there."
He didn't care about the girl who lost her footing...
This was his first close encounter with a monster, and Li Nuo inspected the monster's body.
"Isn't this just a wild boar?"
"But the arms are very thick, and they have evolved claws, and the teeth are like crocodiles." "The fur has fallen off,
this is..."
"Scars?"
"It looks like a cut."
Li Nuo picked at the scar on the monster's forehead and frowned.
"This is not the result of just cutting it off with a knife. His technique is steady. He is a master of weapons, better than me." "A weapon master from a cyberpunk
worldview?"
"Oda, Hanako Aragata's bodyguard? No, there may be others. Others, but there should be a person or organization that can seriously injure the monster, but... there seems to be no news about the wild boar monster in recent months. "Why did
Li Nuo check the monster's body... because he was curious, or in other words, he was worried You will face these creatures soon, so give yourself some information in advance.
He took out [Emil's Mask] from his arms and put it on (the number of times the mask can be used is reset after entering a new scenario).
[Tusk Pig]
[Level: lv11]
[Danger: D]
[Skill: Pig flies and swoops, bites into pieces]
[Attribute: Normal]
[Brief description: Let me tell you a secret... It is not afraid of boiling water now]
"Not strong Ah." Li Nuo took off his mask in disappointment.
He sniffed close to the pig and saw a plume of red smoke leading toward the mountain of garbage.
You can tell the pig has been around for a long time.
Compared to the ram-horned demon that bit Adam's hammer, this pig was frighteningly weak.
Therefore, the gap between the upper and lower limits of monsters is also huge.
Li Nuo speculated: "Aliens and monsters appeared in the same year. The two should be related, but there is such a big gap between the upper and lower limits of monsters, so the aliens... might be very weird." He cut off the pig's head
. The front legs were put into a bag brought from the steam era and used as ingredients for decoction, and at the same time, he noticed that the little girl was still beside him.
If this was a well-dressed little girl, Li Nuo would now pick up a muddy brick and stuff it in her mouth, then rob her.
But this girl is so dirty and pitiful that she most likely has no money.
"What's the matter with you?"
"Can you do me a favor..."
"Ah?" Li Nuo stared at him and asked, "Why me?"
The girl said, "You're not even afraid of monsters, you must be Can you also enter Mewtwo?"
[Side mission has been triggered: Mewtwo Wanderer]
[Quest level:? ? ? ]
[Mission details: Help the girl solve the problem]
[Task reward: 3000 experience points, Mewtwo cassette "Ten Collection"]
Li Nuo did some calculations, 3000 experience points are enough for him to reach level 18, and there is still time before the race mission starts. After more than 2 hours, he thought he could go and have a look.
So he asked simply: "What's the benefit?"
The girl shook her head: "I, I don't have much money."
Li Nuo stood up.
"But I can promise you any conditions!" The girl patted her chest. You could see that the skin under her chest had broken open, and the machinery inside was looming.
Li Nuo found some money from Grayson's dead bodies and threw them to the girl.
The girl caught it and said at a loss: "Do you want me to serve you or... serve them?"
"You are cruel..." Li Nuo sighed, and then said: "Take the money to repair your body. Go, tell me what's going on now."
...
The girl's name is Kallen.
Lives in a nearby slum.
His father was obsessed with Mewtwo, and now he was completely trapped in Mewtwo, and he hadn't come out of his dream for several days.
For many Night City residents, extreme poverty and homelessness are pressing but inescapable issues.
Despite this, most people are still obsessed with the glamorous entertainment industry and the luxurious lifestyle of the privileged elite.
Breakthrough advances in neurotechnology have given rise to technology known as the "Mew Dream Experience," paving the way for people to share their private memories and emotions.
Some Mewtwo experience products allow actors to perform in preset situations, thereby creating "fake" memories and giving the audience an experience as if they were living on the screen.
"Becoming" a celebrity and experiencing a life of luxury and luxury has made it possible for many people to escape from their miserable reality.
As a result, Mewtwo experience addiction has become a growing problem for the city's poor population.
In addition, like all forms of entertainment media, illegal records of Mewtwo experiences also emerge spontaneously in the shadowy black market of Night City.
However, the Mewtwo that Kallen's father experienced was a little different from ordinary ones.
This old guy claimed to have obtained a dream-altered Mewtwo from someone who didn't know his appearance. He didn't even charge him a penny. In the dream, he would play himself and recall the best years of his life, even in the dream. Change the past and start life again.
Naked cyber travel.
The biggest problem is that everything in the dream is so wonderful that once you enter the dream, you can't get out.
Just imagine, when you close your eyes and enter Mewtwo, you will find Hakumomo Hakuna, 楪カレン, Aoi Aoi, Aizawa Nana, Kinoshita Nana, Daimon Goro, Aiden Ashley, Vanna Bardot, etc. lying on the bed next to you. Can you still get out of bed when the notorious guys are there?
Kallen has two Mewtwo Rings at home.
Forced departure will cause physical damage and is likely to lead to direct death, and his daughter Kallen is almost starving to death.
The best way is to let this middle-aged man resist this Mewtwo and have the idea of disconnecting.
In order to gain 3,000 experience points, Li Nuo tied all the weapons to his body and put on the Mewtwo Ring.
...
The top floor of Arasaka Tower.
Rex was sitting on the black sofa chair. As a high-level executive in Huangban, he worked until midnight every day.
Today, Rex planned to simply rest and go home early to spend time with his children and wife.
He lit a cigarette, looked at the photo of his wife and daughter, and smiled warmly.
Rex took a leisurely drag on his cigarette.
At this time there was a knock on the door.
He asked the woman kneeling at his feet to get up.
Lift up your pants and use the remote to open the door.
"Hey, Rex, I heard that the work in Atlanta was done well?" The person who came in was at the same level as him, named Gent.
"Huh, okay, I just held the gun and scared those old guys." Rex showed his superiority: "The name Huangban is a passport to the world." "Be humble, there is
one Project, about floating cities, are you interested?"
"Let's talk tomorrow, I want to go to bed early today."
"How can work be so casual..." Gent saw the deep look in Rex's eyes, A bone-chilling sense of oppression swept through his body: "Okay, Rex, but you can't break the appointment."
After Gent left, Rex let out a sigh of relief.
The position was too high, so it would be so hard...
He took off his pants and enjoyed the moment.
Two hours later, Rex walked out of the office.
Before leaving, he planned to go to the department to see the work situation.
When he was in front of the office door, he heard the employees inside chatting. Rex didn't intend to disturb them, so he just watched, watched, and kept watching outside the glass door.
The office was quiet until someone saw Rex's shadow. He walked in and saw everyone working hard. He smiled, then changed his expression and asked seriously: "How is the plan for the beach city chip store?" After a moment of silence
.
Rex's expression became increasingly grim.
An employee who noticed the suspicion whispered: "That is the project that Angela is responsible for..."
Rex scanned the circle and found that Angela was not there, so he said: "Where is Angela?"
The employee said: "You While on a business trip, her arm got caught in the machine and she is resting now."
Rex: "It would be nice to install a prosthetic body, the company will give it to her."
Employee: "But Angela was gang-banged at the construction site last time She had her organs removed and the company helped her recover from the surgery. She seems to have no money to pay back to the company..." Rex
thought for a moment and then said: "Inform Angela to undergo full-body transformation surgery so that she can go to work. It's over."
No one among the employees dared to answer the question.
The lower-level employees of the Arasaka Group had signed some kind of unilateral prostitution contract, and this was done by Rex.
Once an employee owes the company a large amount of money and fails to repay it, he or she can undergo modification surgery and contribute to the company before becoming a cyber psychotic.
In order to improve efficiency, Rex asked his employees before leaving to memorize the Three Laws of Robotics before leaving get off work every day.
The employees are troubled... They don't seem to have a word about getting off work.
Career-wise, Rex has always been so busy.
He hated the company atmosphere, it was too depressing.
So I motivate my employees every day.
Of course, this is also a kind of motivation for yourself.
That night, Rex returned to his villa in Charter Hill in a float car.
After returning home, he was in a good mood when he saw his virtuous wife. However, his wife was older and the passion was gone. But no matter what... family affection is irreplaceable.
As soon as he sat on the sofa, his naughty daughter ran out of the cabin and fell into Rex's arms.
"Dad, I have prepared a gift for you." The daughter said obediently.
Rex was pleasantly surprised: "My little baby is sensible now. What day is today?"
"Have you forgotten?" His daughter said in surprise: "Today is your birthday."
Rex thought for a while... He is too busy recently. Oh, I forgot which day is my birthday.
"Dad, close your eyes!"
Rex nodded: "Okay, I want to see what surprises my baby has prepared."
A few seconds later.
The daughter shouted: "Open your eyes!"
Rex opened his eyes with a smile, and then his face gradually stiffened...
His daughter took off her pants in front of him, and pointed to the thing between her legs and said: " From today on, you have a son!"
Rex woke up suddenly.
He found himself lying on a hospital bed.
"What's going on!"
"Are you awake?" The doctor turned to look at him, then looked back at the test sheet, turning his back to him and said: "You were frightened in your dream, which caused a brief shock, but it doesn't matter, now It's okay."
Rex let out a sigh of relief.
What a dream...
great, it turns out to be a dream.
"Mr. Rex, you need to take medicine to suppress your nightmares," the doctor said.
"I had a nightmare, yes, it was a nightmare... That dream directly hit my pain and weakness..." Rex shook his head: "There is nothing more terrifying than that." The doctor slowly turned back
. , take off the mask.
His mouth was split to the base of his ears, and blood continued to flow from his mouth. He smiled at Rex with an extremely weird and terrifying arc.
"Then, is this scary?"
Rex looked at the doctor expressionlessly, then stiffened his body, kicked his legs, and pulled away.
The doctor's body digitally transformed into Li Nuo. He walked over and looked at Rex, patted Rex's cheek anxiously, and said eagerly: "Brother... you are going too fast. I have prepared seven layers here." The dream has just passed two days! Wake up!"
Beep -
Kallen saw her father's body beginning to twitch, and she found a line of words on the Mewtwo ring: [The user has mentally chosen to log out of Mewtwo. Experience]
"Dad!" Kallen looked at Li Nuo and asked for help: "Sir, my dad has logged out of Mewtwo!"
Li Nuo had already taken off the Mewtwo ring and saw that Kallen's father was twitching. , and immediately went over and unplugged Chaomeng's connection port.
"Ha——!" Kallen's father gasped and looked around blankly... Then he slid from the chair to the ground because he hadn't eaten for a long time. He was stunned like a fool. It seems that the soul is still in Mewtwo and has not returned.
"What happened to my dad!?" Kallen asked anxiously.
Li Nuo squinted his eyes and frowned... It seemed that he was really crazy...
"Get out of the way." Li Nuo gently pushed Kallen away, pressed his fingers on Rex's forehead, and activated [Yaxi's Seal], Rex's twitching body became calmer, and his breathing gradually became smoother.
The effect of the seal can deeply hypnotize a person and bring him back before he completely turns into a madman.
Li Nuo didn't know if [Yaksi's Seal] was useful for cybernetic disorder.
But Rex did recover.
"Dad...look at me." Kallen held her father's cheek with tears in her eyes.
Rex looked at Karen's dull eyes and said slowly: "Son?"
Bang! Li Nuo helplessly slapped his forehead... This brought the nightmare into reality...
Kallen took the photo of her and her father: "It's me, Kallen... You have been in Mewtwo for several days. , almost died."
"Mewtwo..." Rex looked at the Mewtwo ring that fell on the ground, and he remembered the story in his dream.
He was once a dull employee, but he was reduced to what he is now because he defaulted on the company's debts. The story in the dream was just his imagination...the daughter in front of him was the reality.
"I'm sorry, Kallen, I'm sorry..." Rex hugged his daughter.
A dream is a dream after all, and the moment you wake up from a beautiful dream, it will bring you more emptiness and loss.
However, the nightmare made Rex dare not recall the dream again.
"Dad, you have to thank him." Kallen stood up and pointed behind her: "This gentleman..."
When she turned back, Li Nuo had already left.
He took the cassette away, leaving only a pile of money on the table.
...
[Completed mission: Mewtwo Wanderer]
[Mission reward: 3000 experience points, Mewtwo cassette "Ten Collection"]
[Has been promoted to lv18]
Li Nuo sat back in the car and looked at the disk-like cassette in his hand. It is the cassette that makes Rex fall into a dream, with ten types of Mewtwo written on it.
"Ten collections include beautiful past fantasies, future time travel, savior stories, life restarts, and planet pioneers; there are also school ghost stories with nightmare content, scary hospitals, monster hunting collections, life lanterns, and time travel turned into dog food."
"What the hell?"
Li Nuo put the cassette into his pocket.
According to Kallen, Rex's cassette came from a person whose appearance he couldn't remember.
alien?
Li Nuo thought, could this be aliens conducting experiments on earthlings?
"It's getting more and more confusing."
Li Nuo thought of the [Floating Mechanical Arm] that Cha Bai was going to install, and felt that the world view was not far from collapsing.
He started the car and stepped on the accelerator. It was still one hour before the start of the race mission, and it would be almost time to reach the mission location.
That mission is related to [Hidden World View] and [Alien Mechanical Body].
He felt that he would soon find out what accident happened in the story of "Cyberpunk".
...
the other side.
Next to Victor's clinic.
Several hooded Voodoo gang members gathered on the street corner.
The Voodoo Gang is a gang composed of a group of mysterious hackers, mainly operating in Taipingzhou.
There are many terrible rumors about this gang, and they all boil down to one sentence: they are not good people.
"We have collected a strange mechanical body. Her internal body cannot be cracked and can be used as a research object." "
Yes, a white-haired woman, and a white-haired woman..."
"Don't launch an attack. This is someone else's territory. Create a few cybernetics and act as soon as possible."
Inside the clinic.
Cha Bai opened his eyes suddenly.
Victor was holding the props to prepare for the operation. He immediately said: "You still need to inject anesthesia."
Cha Bai said: "The anesthesia effect I gave myself seems to be limited. I may still have to trouble you. It is best to use a large amount of medicine. "Some"
Victor glanced at the door: "Don't worry."
"When will my operation be completed?" Cha Bai asked.
Victor looked at the electronic watch and said: "When the sun rises, you will be able to welcome this city with a new body."
Cha Bai smiled: "Thank you, doctor."
After the anesthetic injection was completed , Victor looked at the content to be transformed on the computer screen, and he shook his head: "When the sun rises, this city will usher in a new war meat grinder..." (
