Chapter 198 Yaksha Corps
Chengzi was silent for a while, and then calmed down and put out his cigarette,
"No matter what, Li, thank you for helping me until now. You are right, knowing that he is still alive is enough.
You have helped us It's enough, I will pay you back, and I will figure out a way for the rest.
As long as you are alive, there will always be a way..."
She rubbed her face, took out a chip and handed it to Li Pan.
"Let's get down to business. The settlement day is coming soon. The Jinsen Chamber of Commerce is short of funds and has been urged several times. I can't help you with the 20 billion payment. You have to go there in person as soon as possible. In addition, they
gave This coordinate is not in the asteroid ring, but in the KBO belt, outside the orbit of Neptune.
Our manpower is on Ceres. Should we ask HAYABUSA to come back to pick you up, or use a shuttle to rendezvous?" "Have you
moved to the Kuiper Belt meteorite group? Yes. It's a large oil refinery, but it was attacked last time. It's really unsafe to produce in the asteroid ring."
Li Pan took the coordinates and thought for a moment,
"The company has officially turned its back, and space is where the opponent has an advantage. , it’s too dangerous. I’ll find a way to get there by myself, and tell others not to run around. When they receive my signal coordinates, they can jump over to pick up the goods.” Orange nodded, “Also, LEO-
PORT
’s The ship space is too small and can barely accommodate one ship, and the entry and quarantine procedures are too complicated to be used as a warehouse. I suggest you rent a long-term warehouse space in Copernicus. This time, the first batch of perfume was shipped from the moon. , but the follow-up funds have been transferred, and the logistics number of the second batch of perfume has not been sent over yet..."
Oh, that's right!
If something goes wrong inside the Red Tengu, maybe the spice thing will also be ruined!
Tsk, if I had known this, I would have settled it all at once as Amakusa said...
Well, then this might be another loss of 120 billion. But this is not the first time Li Pan has lost 120 billion. The first time is indeed more painful, but the pain is so painful that you get used to it.
Alas, illegal business is such a high-risk business. If there are always such good things, hundreds of billions will fall into your mouth just lying at home, then who will go to work honestly!
It's a pity that Li Pan can't get involved much inside the Red Tengu, especially now that it's involved in such a complicated internal situation as the 'Whisperer'. He can't keep hooking up with Amakusa Shiro under the nose of the Security Bureau. You can only let nature take its course and make a fortune if you can.
So Li Pan and Cheng Zi handed over and authorized Panlong's internal affairs. The shuttle was also left for Cheng Zi, so that she could travel between the earth and the moon to take care of the company and personal affairs. She was responsible for liaising with the Nimitz Institute, spending one billion for Panlong Construction Co., Ltd. to buy the ownership of the NIMS-X14F 'Blood Moon', and following up on the follow-up modification of weapons and equipment, and then using the 'Blood Moon' as a
threat , forcing Kai Lian to sign a prostitution, ahem, long-term employment contract. And let her serve as a training pilot to train his useless snacks that are of no use at all.
Anyway, he has negotiated with Dr. Nimitz, signed a long-term contract, and imported a batch of trial mass production 'toys' from the Nimitz Institute at cost price. Of course, these are not the kind of test machines that cost billions each. , is a mass-produced model numbered NIMS-Y05T. Its SMS architecture, operating system and the four test machines are all on the same platform. It is an initial technology development simulation test machine, a driver training machine, and a simulated combat target machine. It does not have customized equipment, but it can use most SMS weapons commonly available on the market.
Although it is a mass-produced prototype, it is still several generations ahead of the 'Type 3' on the market. However, since Panlong Company's PMC private mercenary license has not yet been approved, this batch of 'toys' is temporarily Registered as an engineering excavator, obtained a civil construction equipment license, with a special discounted cost of 80 million per unit. Panlong then paid for it himself, purchased weapons and equipment from the black market, and assisted Dr. Nimitz to provide these in the corporate war. Long-term actual combat testing of the airframe and sharing of real-time combat data.
Li Pan mainly bought these equipments for the three-headed dogs, but they were idle, so he let the idlers learn from them. He doesn't expect Rama Caiko, Husky and the others to be able to become elite pilots like Kai Lian who can fight against ten. He just wants to find something for these guys to do. After all, if this 'Panlong SMS Team' is formed, such a large metal mecha can at least stand up and support the table, wave flags and shout, and provide some firepower support... right?
Such specific operations were all left to Chengzi. By the way, Huang Dahe also used the pseudonym of "Oyama Yamato", and together with "Blood Moon Kailian", he registered and joined the Engineering Construction Department of Panlong Construction Co., Ltd., and registered for excavation For pilots, the company will guarantee a temporary residence permit and report it to the local NCPA branch every month.
As for the Dawn Knight and Arthur Dorn that Shiba and the others picked up along the way, Li Pan didn't care about them, so he asked Ashiya to lead a team to escort them to 0113007 and hand them over directly to the company.
After all, Ah Qi and the others picked it up. At least they could exchange it for a silver key. As for the follow-up exchange of prisoners of war or anatomical research, it will be negotiated with Liming at the head office level. It can be regarded as Panlong Construction's contribution to this corporate war.
Fortunately, so far, because there are only a few achievements that have been collected, the sense of existence is really not high, and other companies have not come to Panlong Construction for the time being.
Well, for now.
Probably after receiving what Li Pan conveyed at the meeting, the five major companies began to prepare to retreat.
Ming Ming and Terra were not bad. They started out in space, and their main manufacturing plants were in the star field. On Earth, they were just business departments and sales departments. The scale of local assets in 0791 is not large. Soon they temporarily closed down their operations, laid off temporary dispatch workers, arranged overseas business trips for regular workers, and quickly evacuated the earth.
But Zhutian Petrochemical, OFEC, and Kegu Industrial are in dire straits. These three giants all have considerable real estate on the earth, including mines, oil fields, and farms, and they all managed to get it from Takamagahara. How could it be so easy to evacuate land at a moment's notice?
And he really withdrew just because of Li Pan's words. Where's the face? Will you still be able to hang out in the heavens from now on?
However, now that Tu Qiongdiao has met, these large companies will not take it lightly and will not come to start a full-scale war with Li Pan until preparations are completed.
So now these three companies have begun to prepare for war and defense. They have temporarily closed all company buildings and divisions in Night City, evacuated senior cadres and their families in batches, and mobilized a large number of security mercenaries, private armed forces and drone armies to separately station themselves in factories, mining areas and warehouses. , beware of the attacks and destruction from Monsters Inc. They must have gathered together for a small meeting to study how to deal with Li Pan, a super humanoid weapon.
However, in fact, Li Pan was really just talking about the closure at the time...
just bragging, ahem, strategic deterrence, okay?
What? Really beat them until they close the store? Just kidding, do you know how much assets these big companies have? He is the only one the company can beat! He almost broke his leg when he bombed a warehouse on the outskirts of Night City. I really want him to go around the equator and fight them one by one! I want to tire him to death! Two thousand and fifty a month! Two thousand five hundred! Why should I fight for my life?
In short, Li Pan's plan was actually pretty simple. He would shout at the top and move at the bottom. Anyway, he would get off work at that time. The company war and other things would be settled tomorrow... But
Aqi caught him and wouldn't let him get off work...
Well, after all, the settlement day is coming soon. Li Pan has been on business both in the universe and on the earth these days. He has been running around demolishing people and flipping tables, and has barely entered the office a few times. Now Branch 0791 has accumulated a lot of documents for him to sign.
Li Pan was also speechless. He was a god who could "refining qi and transforming into gods". Five major companies could hang him up and beat him up, but he was actually caught working overtime in the office? It's really a big head...
And now that he's signing, Li Pan is even more helpless.
It’s so annoying. It’s so annoying to sign! Let’s talk about it, the smart system is useless, it will be gone as soon as you go back and reset it, but it is really useless without a brain plug-in, and even the office software can’t automatically generate icons and electronic signatures! System authorization can be solved in just one sentence, but signing of various documents is not easy!
It's getting dark and I don't want to work...
"Boss, we haven't signed the contract yet! If we don't reimburse us, we will go bankrupt! Two thousand and five thousand is not enough to pay off the credit card!" "
I rely on Aqi! You will go bankrupt if you are just like others. ? And how did you get the credit card! Who else is this? Taxi reimbursement and parking lot fines are also stuffed in! This kind of thing cannot be reimbursed for war and military expenses!" Well, it is indeed his fault
, Because he hasn’t taken Rama Aqi on missions to earn extra money recently, which has made them very poor...
"Oh, okay, okay, Aqi, please sort it out. From now on, private applications like this will be sent electronically. Go to my private mailbox and I will reimburse you privately!
There is also Shiba, where is my prosthetic body! When will it be repaired? Send it back to me after it is repaired to help with the office!"
Li Pan kept complaining, and finally Shiba The sub-project system list of MT380 was projected on the TV,
"Okay, okay, boss, the 4S store has been inspected and maintained, there is no major damage, but there are no original accessories for the arm here, but there is a Muramasa brand A series of modification parts are available, do you want to change the weapon system or something?"
Li Pan understood when the 4S store sent a lot of recommendations for level 5 and 6 customized plug-ins.
"Damn, how can a popular product like VK not have original parts! This is obviously a trick of 4S stores to increase prices and charge money!"
However, Li Pan now has tens of billions of funds in his pocket, so he can afford it, and the main body Last time, I came out of seclusion halfway through the retreat. I came out and pretended to be a bit unprotected. I need to stabilize my state, so as not to fight all day long. Pretending to be cool is fun, but it leaves hidden dangers and affects my practice.
Therefore, for the time being, I still have to arm this prosthetic body. For example, spend one million to get started, activate the paid function of office software, intelligently write scripts, install a PPT assistant, etc... As for the weapon system, it is actually casual
. Well, weapons such as rail guns, plasma lasers, are certainly powerful, but the modification work required for the technical weapon system is too large, and the MT380 model is indeed a bit old, and it is estimated that it cannot support the most advanced weapons. Considering the cost-effectiveness of local brands, prosthetic weapons such as swords are mainly famous.
So Li Pan chose a pair of Muramasa's 'Zhanyu' Mantis Sword prosthetic arm, which has reinforced alloy bones, automatic attack scripts and accelerating rotor motors. After debugging, it matched VK's neural acceleration and weapon control systems, and it was a total package. It probably cost more than six million. By the way, it is estimated that the ordinary five-level military alloy-breaking blades are not enough, so Li Pan added three pairs of customized single-molecule high-energy hot-wire blades, worth 1.5 million pairs, which can break nano-scale composite armor and Single molecular line. Although it costs a little more, this set can at least be used by everyone in the company. It is a luxury prosthetic body of BBA level, which can cause effective melee damage, so that we will not be hit by a bunch of misses and be dodged. The enemy's armor has not been broken.
In addition, Li Pan upgraded his prosthetic eyes again. This time, he couldn't even see a dog, and he couldn't dodge bullets. He almost suffered a big loss, so he filled up his eyes and chose a pair of custom-made six-level prosthetics from Wise Optics. The eye is the kind of thing with a built-in miniature moving target compressed pulse radar that can resist and interfere with identity scanning. Didn't he try it out by digging one out of the eye of Yagyu's Cyclops before? It should be an improved version of the same model, integrating the functions of two eyes into one.
Because I had a good experience with it after trying it before, the 4S store happened to have it in stock, so I decided to install it too. Unfortunately, I couldn’t buy them one by one, as a pair of eyeballs costs 5.2 million. And because Smart Optical has gone bankrupt, prosthetic eye systems cannot be upgraded via OTA in the future and will gradually become outdated. This is still the price of clearing inventory.
Unfortunately, the intelligent assistance system of MT380 is still a bit poor. Both the prosthetic eye and the mantis knife need to be overloaded and overclocked before they can be activated at the same time. It is difficult to continue to modify them. So Li Pan randomly chose a full-body armor film package, a set of nano-material high-strength ultra-light bulletproof armor, and added an additional anti-freeze coating. It cost more than four million, and the modification ended here.
Well, I am really rich now. I used to have a lot of trouble choosing level 4 plug-ins worth tens of thousands of dollars, but now I can spend twenty million without any pain, and I still take it for granted, and even feel a little weak. Well...
Well, there is one thing to say. The MT380 is cost-effective, but the modification limit is really low. Just two level 6 prosthetics are overloaded. It is really not good enough in a corporate war. At the beginning, I should have gritted my teeth and added some money to go directly to the AG-S series. Looking at the recommended selling price on the official website, it seemed that it was only a billion or so... Maintenance was a grind, renovation and upgrades were fast, and the
4S store received the money. , for fear that Li Pan would regret it, before he could finish handling the company's business, MT380 had been updated and sent to Panlong Factory... So
Li Pan entered the warehouse, cleared out a container, and moved the ice crystals of 'White Flag' He came in, got a few more boxes of Xuan Ming crystals, then drew a magic circle to gather the true energy, left the body and the 'white flag' together, and froze them into a big ice ball. Then the soul left the body and switched to MT380.
Sure enough, science and technology are the primary productive forces. Li Pan 380 simply scanned it and the intelligent office assistance system started! With a swipe, I archived the documents, reports, signatures and made them into report PPT.
It is indeed the best office package in the world, good news for company dogs. This million is really worth it... Wait, wait! This serial number is only valid for one year? Well... that's acceptable...
I checked my personal mailbox, and several 007s have sent him their daily work logs. At least judging from the updated work logs, regardless of whether they are actually fishing or just messing around, But they had arranged the official matters such as establishing Star City and preparing the army for war. Everything went smoothly. It seemed that there was no need to worry. After all, if something goes wrong, they are responsible.
As for 0113007, the research institute has also initially reorganized, set up an initial laboratory production line, and has begun the production of cloned bionic bodies again. There are so many people in the company, and the five major companies have taught them a lesson. There should be no more wars on the earth for the time being.
As for Amakusa Shiro, he has disappeared and has not been contacted. The veteran account sent text messages without replying. The 5 billion payment has been sent long ago, but there is no news at all, as if it was thrown into the water, and no one knows about the second batch. When will the twenty boxes of perfume arrive?
Come on, this batch of goods is indeed yellow.
Now Li Pan can't wait any longer. If it continues, the enemy company's fleet will only become more and more numerous, and its preparations will only become more complete, while the money in his pocket will be used less and less.
We must seize this window period and make a quick trip to resolve the black oil issue to avoid any further troubles.
So after some encrypted communication, a cargo float ship arrived at night. A large group of cyberpunks dressed in fashionable clothes jumped off the ship and stood guard near the factory. Their whole bodies were highly prosthetic, loaded with live ammunition, and the leader with a white ghost face badge came. Go to Li Pan.
"We are the Yasha Corps. The queen introduced us to the armed logistics consignment you called."
"Yes, Panlong Construction will send me and my goods to Ceres, at the coordinates of CERES-ORBITPLANT-VIII, certified by the middleman."
Li Pan shook hands with the other party, exchanged and confirmed the middleman's task entrustment, and collected and paid the deposit in person. Pay a team dispatch fee of 3 million, a cargo ship rental fee of 1 million, and an agency fee of 20% to confirm the employment relationship. During the mission, each mercenary will be paid 100,000 yuan per day, and the balance will be paid after arriving at the destination. During the period, he will pay all handling fees. If he is intercepted by the enemy, the battle damage and bonus will be calculated separately.
Ten times the market price of the Night City mercenary group, because this Yaksha Corps is the popular leader of the Bad Death Bar, a veteran of the Iron Queen, and the cyberpunk team with the highest mission success rate in the Night City.
Although most of the team members have actually retired, they are still the top elites and legends, equipped with level 5 and 6 prosthetic plug-ins all over their bodies and armed to the teeth. This time Li Pan also spared no expense and entrusted the Iron Queen to arrange manpower. He planned to send the main body and prosthetic body directly to Ceres. After meeting with HAYABSA over there, he would go to the KBO belt to meet with the black oil manufacturer.
Having elite guards like this, carrying the main body with him, and three keys in hand, if something happens, he can directly "leave the body! Release the main body!" It's not a waste to have two company fleets!
Ahem, okay, it's still empty. Li Pan was actually very weak. He was afraid that a positron cannon would suddenly hit his face. So he also asked the company to provide network support, fleet escort, and give a warning...
But fortunately, nothing happened until he arrived at the launch site on a mercenary aerostat, then transferred to a cruiser and ejected into space orbit. attack.
These mercenaries were also as silent as gold. They gave Li Pan a space suit and let him squat with the container in the cargo hold, and they did not come to talk nonsense with him.
Li Pan didn't care. He closed his eyes and rested his mind, doing real-time calculations in the intelligent brain system, simulating combat training, and fine-tuning the attributes of each prosthetic body.
So the spacecraft set sail without incident, left the surface, jumped, accelerated in a secret orbit, jumped, accelerated in a secret orbit, arrived at Ceres, entered the port, and delivered the goods.
In this way, the whole process from departure to storage should take less than two hours. Even Li Pan's two cruise ships have not returned to port yet.
They are still dealing with chainsaw-level matters, dismantling ships and packing them. There are vacuum anchors for goods that are temporarily inconvenient to handle, and high-value-added goods are shipped to private ports for sale.
So Li Pan first arranged for the cargo robot to put his own container into the warehouse, and then waited for HAYABUSA to return to the port before loading it. Anyway, the main body is just a murderous force against military level. If you leave it in the universe to practice, it will improve faster.
Finally, we teamed up with the Yasha Soldiers to clear the remaining balance of 3 million. They were indeed a top team and the task was completed neatly.
... Oh, are you too careful? More than seven million are just gone. This is not how you spend your money... "The
transaction was successful, thank you for your patronage. If you have such an easy job, come to me again."
Queen I'm quite happy, after all, I made a lot of money from the company's dog just by drinking tea. I also sent a message to inform you. I don’t know if the favorability level has increased by half a heart...
Li Pan looked at the other person’s profile picture. Suddenly an idea flashed,
and he replied, "Queen, you are still selling information, right?"
The Iron Queen said, "You know what information you need, but you know what information you need. Battle reports from big companies are very expensive."
Broomstick, "Whisperer."
Iron Queen, "..."
Broom Head,
"At the height of the war in Takamagahara, a single special force went deep behind enemy lines, suddenly descended to the earth, swept through hundreds of strongholds, and then escaped unharmed. This is too much. It’s legendary.
But what if the other party actually saw that the situation was over and was actively abandoning the project, destroying evidence, and pretending to be dead to hide... The
troops sent to Earth by the SEC to carry out the Whisperer’s kidnapping mission were the Yashas led by you, right? Vajira, King Kong."
Iron Queen, "..."
Broom Head, "Is anyone still alive?"
Iron Queen went offline.
So there is...
the Whisperer project that the company committee that rules the entire world is thinking about...
Well, it seems that the favorability of the Iron Queen line is not enough. I guess I need to conquer it more to unlock the follow-up. The plot is over.
