Cyberpunk: 2075

Chapter 493 106. Damn it

The charging gun connected to the exoskeleton emitted a scorching light. Facing the dazzling light in the dim factory building, Carl turned Kenshin in his palm and finally held it tightly in his palm.

No signal of war was needed. At the moment when the light suddenly became dazzling, Kenshin in Carl's hand fired.

Four bullets were fired in an instant, and each bullet was aimed at Royce's body embedded in the exoskeleton.

Royce's body has undergone a certain degree of prosthetic transformation, and has sufficient protection against ordinary firearms, but when facing Kenshin, that little defense is still not enough.

Not all members of the Whirlpool Gang will be equipped with heavy armor that can resist attacks from technical weapons.

This bulky modification is rare even within the Whirlpool Gang. After all, armor will increase weight, and in battle, a step slower may mean the fate of facing explosions and laser cutting.

Armor is always targeted. To be perfect in resisting impact and cutting, the required transformation may be enough to turn them into half Adam Hammer.

Obviously, Royce is just a relatively innocent member of the Whirlpool Gang. He still cares about becoming the gang leader, and has not reached the level of the Whirlpool Gang extremists who want to immediately turn themselves into cyber psychopaths like Adam Hammer.

Therefore, his protective ability is not enough to resist Kenshin's bullets.

However, Royce naturally knows that he is the biggest weakness of this exoskeleton body, and he has been prepared for this.

When Kenshin's bullets came, Royce's exoskeleton left hand had raised a protective shield made of special materials to block in front of him.

"Ding——"

The tungsten gold bullet hit the protective shield in Royce's hand, and only made a slightly weird sound before it slid away. Obviously, the material used for the shield is not ordinary, and the impact caused by the bullet can't make Royce's exoskeleton arm feel the slightest shaking.

Obviously, the fast-shooting Kenshin had no ability to penetrate Royce's raised shield without proper charging time.

But what Carl cared more about was Royce's speed.

"Have you installed the reflection plug-in? It's not a particularly strange thing for a group of modification mad bosses."

However, raising the shield to block the safety of the body, the vision blocked for a moment is enough for him to do many things.

He rushed forward, and when Royce put down the shield and tried to find Carl's trace, Carl had already appeared in front of him.

Royce's prosthetic eyes flashed wildly, and the vision of many prosthetic eyes helped him instantly lock and capture Carl's slightly blurred figure.

He almost did not hesitate, while adjusting the angle of the shield in his left hand, he released the trigger of the charging gun that was continuously charging with his right finger, and aimed the muzzle at Carl who was rushing over.

A bright red burning light instantly burst out from the charging gun. The back power tank connected to Royce's exoskeleton continuously supplied energy to the gun, allowing the charging gun in his hand to shoot a continuous beam of light.

The beam swept towards Carl as Royce's exoskeleton arm swung, but how could the beam, which needed to adjust the angle with the arm, catch up with Carl?

"Too slow."

Carl, who originally thought that Royce could bring him some fun and wanted to see what this heavy-duty exoskeleton could do, was disappointed.

With this performance, at best he could be used as a turret in a street fight, and he could be greeted by someone with a rocket launcher bought in Dog Town at any time. Is this all the Vortex Gang has?

When the beam swept across the figure captured by Royce's artificial eye, Carl was no longer there.

According to the visual persistence phenomenon of the human body's native eyes, if an object completely leaves its original position within 0.4 seconds, an afterimage may be produced. However, that is the time span of the artificial eye. If you want to leave this visual blur phenomenon in the artificial eye, it is only because the artificial eye's light capture function cannot catch up, and that speed has far exceeded the limit of ordinary people's reaction.

The ordinary human reaction is only 0.3 seconds. Specially trained and selected personnel can reach 0.11 seconds. Royce, who has installed a reflection plug-in, can be faster than this, but even if he has reached this level, his visual capture and his reaction cannot keep up with Carl's speed at this moment.

Before Royce reacted, a gun had been tilted from the side to his lower jaw.

Royce's face has been modified with prostheses, and the rare place on his face that is not covered by the prosthesis is the jaw. From this place, as long as a gun is fired, the bullet can directly penetrate into his brain.

And Carl did the same.

"Bang."

In the sound of gunfire, Royce didn't even have time to say anything, and a hole appeared in his brain.

For ordinary mercenaries, if they want to deal with Royce, a leader of the Whirlpool Gang who wears an exoskeleton and has quite good physical strength, they should start with the energy tank of the exoskeleton, destroy it, and then paralyze part of the weapon power source, and then find a way to break through Royce's defense and attack Royce himself. However, this strategy does not apply to Carl.

Karl's current vision can easily see through people's weaknesses. In this case, coupled with his speed, as long as he is a little serious, a boss of the Whirlpool Gang wearing an exoskeleton will not even blink in front of him. Unable to walk through.

It will be fast.

It doesn't take long, but it's enough.

It's enough.

There are countless moments of sighing in life. Taking one of these moments to deal with Royce is indeed very useful.

"Click——"

Amidst the sound of the exoskeleton stopping due to loss of control, Karl looked at Royce's body and began to be in a daze.

Then, it took him a full four seconds to accept a fact.

Oops, I accidentally killed him.

Karl has always said that it is difficult for him to keep his hands on things, and today, he obviously verified what he said to the intermediary.

He moved too quickly. Before his consciousness could react and stop his hand, his hand had already pulled the trigger.

Karl looked at Royce's body and was stunned for a few seconds.

What is Rogge's request?

It seems like I’m just teaching the boss a lesson, not killing him, right?

Carl looked at Royce's body again.

this.

Can the boss of the Uzumaki Gang be saved?

Damn it.

Seeing him wearing an exoskeleton, and pretending to challenge me to a duel, I got a little carried away for a while, but who knew he was just a silver gun with a candle head, which would fall down as soon as he touched it.
