Game world survival starts from Resident Evil 2

Chapter 271 Mann's team appears!

When Li You and his party returned to Night City, it was already noon the next day.

The Perception Night Demon Transformation Pool can only soak one person at a time. Even with the acceleration buff provided by Edge, it takes more than six hours to transform one.

So until they left, only two Perception Night Demons were bred, and the remaining two Night Wanderers were still unconscious in the underground cave.

However, during the transformation process, very interesting things happened.

When the Night Demon Nest transformed the Night Wanderers, it naturally rejected the prostheses on their bodies and spit out some of the ones that were easy to peel off intact.

So Li You now has several second-hand grips and leg joints, two pairs of prosthetic eyes, and even an old gorilla arm.

However, except for these prostheses that are easy to disassemble and not so tightly integrated with the flesh, the other implants were treated equally by the incubator and their flesh, and finally remained in the bodies of the two Night Demons.

This discovery surprised Li You very much. He immediately asked the two to test the prostheses that were still on their bodies.

Unfortunately, their brain chips are no longer functioning, and the prostheses in the frontal cortex, circulatory system, and nervous system, although still in the body, have also stopped functioning.

But there are still some that are still effective. Implants such as bone reinforcement and subcutaneous armor can still work because they are simple in structure and do not need to be connected to the brain-computer chip for calculation.

Even in order to adapt to the bone structure, the body size of these two people remained basically unchanged after the transformation.

This discovery surprised Li You. Bones and subcutaneous armor are the most direct prostheses that can enhance combat effectiveness, and they do not require training. If they can be applied to the Night Demons, it would be a significant increase.

And if we further assume that the sensory Night Demons were originally transformed from humans, then is it possible to adjust the settings of the prosthesis so that they can also use various prostheses?

After this idea emerged in his mind, Li You immediately became excited.

Isn't this... military enhancement! ?

Unfortunately, the secrets of the Night Demons cannot be revealed casually, and it is even more impossible to find prosthesis doctors everywhere to conduct research. If you really want to try, you have to capture people and lock them up - why does it sound so much like a villain organization in special effects?

"... Actually, it's not impossible. Not all the cyborg doctors in the city are good people, and the gangs also have their own doctors." Li You began to think.

However, although he was very enthusiastic at the moment, there were other more important things to do at the moment, and he had to go back to Night City first. Giving the Night Demon a cyborg can only wait until next time.

It won't take too long. When the core of the Night Demon's nest is upgraded, he will definitely come back.

So, Li You left behind two Night Demon guards who had completed the transformation, and asked them to take all the useful weapons in their cars to arm themselves.

Although even so, the combat power was not enough, but Li You also left behind one of his commonly used weapons. This weapon has recently been developed by Li You for a new use, and it will become a coordinate at a critical moment.

After making these preparations, Li You parked two Night Wanderer's armed off-road vehicles outside the Stone Ridge Mountain, then called Dakota and sold them for 8,000 euros.

There was no other way. The Night Wanderer's car looked well-equipped, but it was actually a mess inside. In addition, buying such a car might provoke their revenge, so he could only sell it for this little money.

Of course, if Li You wanted to bargain, it was not impossible, but it was just a little money, so he was too lazy to waste his time.

After finishing all the miscellaneous matters, Li You drove his Colby, carrying Yuzu and Edge, to Night City.

In the car, Edge took his smartphone and looked through the next appointments.

"Well, Rebecca asked us to meet and said she would introduce someone to us? Is there another job?"

"Maybe, but the meeting is in the evening, so there's no rush."

"That's right, so now we...ah, are we going to see Regina?"

"That's right."

Last night, Regina called and said she wanted to talk to Li You about something, and asked Li You to go find her when he was free. Li You could probably guess what it was, so he was on his way to Regina's base.

Li You drove smoothly over the viaduct and was about to enter Charter Hill in Westbrook.

But at this moment, Yuzu, who was sitting in the back truck, suddenly knocked on the car window and reminded: "It seems that there are enemies coming."

"...Huh?"

Aggie looked out and saw that on the viaduct behind, a Thrace with a conspicuous cyborg spider logo was gradually approaching.

"It's the Whirlpool Gang!"

"Are they being chased by the gang? Why are they doing it here?"

Li You immediately understood what happened. Their previous actions against the Whirlpool Gang were probably exposed, and the group of transformation freaks found out his identity, so they issued a hunting order within the gang. The car behind was here to cause trouble.

This kind of random event also exists in the game, so Li You was not too surprised. It was not difficult to deal with this group of Whirlpool Gang, but he didn't want to scratch his new car.

So Li You shouted: "Yuzi, I leave it to you!"

Yuzi understood, looked at the distance and jumped hard, and rushed to the Whirlpool Gang's vehicle in the air!

However, he jumped too hard, which inevitably caused their car to tilt to the left. Li You turned the steering wheel sharply and stopped suddenly on the side of the road, but there was no accident.

As for the Whirlpool Gang, they were also shocked when they saw Yuzu rushing towards them. The driver instinctively wanted to dodge, but failed to catch up. Yuzu stepped heavily on the hood of the car, and the whole car suddenly tilted up!

Yuzu was pressed on the car, and the front of the car body was rubbed on the ground with sparks. The force of inertia was quickly exhausted, and the car that lost control crashed into the shoulder of the road and stopped completely.

However, Yuzu did not let them go. He strode to the driver's seat, stretched out his hand, grabbed and tore, and pulled off the door, and then lifted the driver out.

The driver and the other two people in the car screamed, only the woman sitting in the co-pilot with a highly modified body got out of the car, showed the mantis knife in her arm with a ferocious look, and rushed towards Yuzu!

"Swish——"

A knife flashed in the air, and Li You had come here without knowing when, and slashed at the woman with a knife!

The woman was shocked. She didn't notice when Li You approached, but she didn't have time to think about it. She retracted her hands and crossed her mantis blade in front of her body to block the knife.

A golden electric light suddenly lit up on the thunder light and moon shadow, and it disappeared as the blade slashed down.

Li You sheathed the knife gracefully, and the woman fell to the ground with a snap, blood slowly flowing from under her body, and she didn't move anymore.

As for Yuzu, he got Li You's instruction and broke the necks of three vortex gang minions and threw them down.

Li You searched on his smartphone and found that two of them had bounties, which added up to 800 euros, so he took it - at least it could cover a few days of accommodation.

Finally, Li You found a recording chip on the woman with the mantis blade, which contained the hunting order for him from the vortex gang.

"…Our last deal was ruined by a rookie mercenary who hadn't even grown all his hair yet! What are you good for? That guy is Li You. Find him and chop off his head for a display! Go!"

Li You took out the chip, broke it into two pieces, and threw it on the bodies of the Whirlpool Gang.

"Come on if you have the guts."

He then returned to his car with Yuzu. Edge, who was in charge of the guard, glanced at him and said, "Be quick next time, the police will be here soon."

"Okay, let's go."

Li You started the car again and continued to rush to Regina's base.

Regina's base is located on the edge of Watson's Kabuki District, in a glass-walled building.

Interestingly, in the Edgewalker animation, Qi Wei, the hacker who replaced Sasha and joined Mann's team, also lived in this building, and they should either be in the same household or upstairs or downstairs from Regina.

Judging from the fact that Regina asked Li You to come here to meet her, it should be the latter situation.

Li You took Yuzu and Aggie and took the elevator all the way to the 13th floor, and came to the base of the middleman.

As soon as he entered the door, Li You saw two machine gun turrets aiming at him.

Yuzu immediately roared and stepped forward, and Aggie's body tensed up.

But Regina's voice came from inside: "Don't worry, I won't shoot, you are in the system. Come in."

Sure enough, the two turrets quickly recognized Li You's identity and resumed standby mode. Li You walked inside and saw Regina leaning against the glass window with her arms folded, looking down at the Night City below.

"Li You, this is the first time we have communicated face to face."

Regina turned around and swept her eyes from Li You and the other two. When she saw Yuzu, her pupils dilated slightly, but there was no extra expression on her face. She nodded very calmly and greeted them.

Obviously, Regina had done her homework beforehand, but she was able to remain calm when she met Yuzu in person, which shows that she is quite calm as a middleman.

"Seeing is believing, Regina." Li You smiled, "I wonder if you asked me to come here for something?"

Regina did not keep the secret and said straight to the point: "Two things. The first is to meet you, the dark horse new mercenary. I am very much looking forward to your abilities, so meeting now will make it easier for us to cooperate in the future."

"As for the second thing... Li You, look at this."

Regina pointed to a screen next to her, and her partner clicked twice on the tablet in his hand, and several pictures were projected on the screen. The pictures showed people Li You was very familiar with - the cyber psychopath they had just knocked down yesterday.

Li You now confirmed his guess that Regina had come here for this matter.

Regina looked at him: "You don't seem surprised."

Li You smiled: "No, I'm just born with facial paralysis."

"..."

Regina glanced at him, skipped the topic, and continued: "Yes, this guy is the cyberpsychopath you subdued. I asked Dakota for him."

"Since you have already faced him, you must know the situation of this group. To be honest, there are more and more cyberpsychopathic incidents in the city, but no one cares about the reasons behind them.

"And the crazy people in the Terrorist Mobile Team only know to beat them all into sieves every time - this is simply a temporary solution.

"I heard that cyberpsychopaths can actually be cured. Although it doesn't sound reliable, it's better than killing them all without any explanation.

"Dakota told me that your three-person team subdued the cyberpsychopath almost without any damage. To be honest, this surprised me.

"But that's why I came to you. Li You, if there is an incident of cyberpsychosis in the future, I hope you can help solve it. You just need to subdue them and help investigate the situation, and try not to kill anyone at the same time. got them.

"As long as you can do it, I will give you a very generous reward - what do you think?"

Li You looked thoughtful and waited for a while before saying: "It's not impossible, but you also know that cyberpsychosis is very dangerous. The risks of this kind of entrustment are quite high, so..."

Looking at Regina's eyes, he smiled slightly and added the second half of the sentence: "You have to add more money."

When he came out of Regina's stronghold, Li You already had another 4,000 euros in his personal account.

According to Regina, this was a deposit. After he received the money, future commissions regarding cyberpsychosis could not be refused without reason - he could still refuse without reason.

In fact, Li You didn't intend to refuse in the first place. Naturally, this kind of money would be free of charge.

Because the suppression of cyberpsychosis is one of the achievements of this world.

[Achievement: Psycho Killer]

[Achievement content: Find and subdue cyberpsychosis (1/18). 】

Although Li You also wanted to complain, there were clearly seventeen cyberpsychopaths in the game, but how come there were eighteen in his system?

Why, the cyberpsychosis is actually me? Will he be asked to hold down V Zhentian later?

Putting aside these minor shortcomings, in short, by cooperating with Regina, Li You is equivalent to having an additional voice achievement reminder software, which is convenient for him.

In this way, Li You drove the car, had something to eat in Japan Street, and then returned to the hotel.

The three of them took a brief rest and waited until night before going out again.

It's time to go to Rebecca's appointment.

At ten o'clock in the evening, Li You arrived near the super skyscraper H8—actually just a short walk down from the Sakura Market.

The meeting place that Rebecca arranged to meet with him was right here, the Turbo Bar on the riverside.

This is also the place where the Mann team often gathers in the animation, and the scene where Rebecca and her brother Pyrrha perform their talents is here.

Li You had just parked the car in the parking space of the Turbo Bar. Sasha, who had noticed them long ago, had already run to the car window: "Li You! You are here."

"Well, hello, Sasha." Li You got out of the car, followed closely by Aiji and Yuzi. Yuzi's huge figure attracted the attention of many people.

Sasha looked at Li You's car: "Where did you borrow this from? Have you erased the tracking information? If you don't crack the security system, the owner will chase you. Ah, let me help you?"

Li You was a little funny and said, "Don't do it. This is my car. If you break the security, I have to reinstall it."

"Eh?" Sasha was stunned, "You have a car so soon?"

At this time, Rebecca also came over, pulled Sasha to her side, and said, "Hey! Sasha, you are too active. Now is not the time to do this."

She said and looked at Li You: "Newcomer! The boss of our team is waiting for you. He is the most powerful mercenary in this area. It is rare for him to see you this time."

Sasha also agreed: "Well, Mann usually doesn't bring new people."

Li You smiled and was about to say something when he saw a tall woman with short blond hair standing aside, confronting Yuzi.

"Oh? You have a very good physique!" The female mercenary looked at Yuzi, "These muscles are very convincing. I am optimistic about you!"

Next to her, followed a thin man with a vulgar face, a hedgehog-style mohawk and a full beard, wearing a pair of electronic goggles, and equipped with extra lengthened prosthetic arms on both arms.

Hearing this, the man chuckled: "Really? Is this kind of guy your cup of tea? Then you have to be careful. Looking at his muscles like this, I'm afraid he can overheat your prosthetic body." Hahaha!"

Grapefruit:"…?"

Li You: "..."

What are you talking about to a child of that age?

Aiji couldn't listen anymore and pulled Yuzu behind him, which also attracted the attention of the two.

The man looked at Aggie and said, "Huh? Where did this little girl like you come from? Why, do you want to communicate with your brother?"

Aggie: "..."

She asked in the spiritual link: "...It should be okay for me to kill this guy, right?"

Li You: "...No, that's Sasha's teammate, or Rebecca's brother."

Aggie: "...ah!!??"

There is a man and a woman. The muscular woman is called Dorio, and the wretched man with long hands is Pyrrha. Both of them are members of Mann's team. Dorio is Mann's love interest and second-in-command, while Pyrrha is the gunslinger and technical expert.

Although Pyrrha looks unreliable, his professional skills are still excellent, and he can even perform simple disassembly and assembly of prosthetics - his pair of extended prosthetic hands - at his own home.

Seeing that the atmosphere seemed a bit tense, both Sasha and Rebecca planned to step forward. Li You originally planned to step forward and say a few words, but he heard a deep and deep voice coming from the other side:

"Hey, Dorio, Pyrrha, stop playing and bring him here."

"Um."

Dorio hummed, looked at Li You, gestured with her thumb to the direction of the green belt beside her, and motioned for Li You to follow her.

The two brought Li You to the edge, where the man was sitting under a landscape tree.

With short blond hair standing up, dark brown skin, and an exaggeratedly sturdy figure, this man is almost two times bigger than Li You, and looks almost as tall as Yuzu.

He wears a pair of sports sunglasses, and all traces of prosthetic transformation can be seen everywhere on his body. He only wears a sleeveless black jacket on his upper body, and proudly displays those prosthetic interfaces.

This is the captain of Mann, Sasha, Rebecca and others, one of the most famous mercenaries in Night City during this period - or another name can be used, Cyberpunk.

He sits under the landscape tree with his legs crossed, very uninhibitedly, with a bottle of wine next to him, but he doesn't open it.

Mann looked up at Li You: "Are you the novice mercenary who asked Rebecca to introduce a commission and snatched our hacker?"

His eyes were very penetrating, and his aura was full of oppression, but Li You ignored it and just said: "It's me."

"Oh? Interesting."

Mann stood up suddenly, took two steps to Li You, and looked down at him from top to bottom, while Li You looked back without fear.

Sasha, who was standing aside, felt a little uneasy when she saw this, and wanted to take a step forward, but Rebecca held her back and shook her head.

Mann and Li You looked at each other for a while, then suddenly laughed and said, "Good! You're good! You're worthy of being called 'the most promising newcomer this year' by Regina. Her vision is really good!"

Li You didn't know why Regina praised him like this, but he just smiled slightly: "I have more than just potential."

"Ha! Pretty arrogant boy, I like it!"

It's not Li You's character to be so flamboyant, but as mentioned before, if you want to make a name for yourself in Night City, you must show your strength - there is no room for virtues like "humility" to survive here.

Mann patted Li You's shoulder hard and said, "Let's talk business! You saved Sasha before, right? I want to thank you for this. Come on, drink this glass!"

Li You took the glass without hesitation and drank it all.

"Okay, that's great!" Mann also drank the wine in his hand, and then continued, "Then it's our main business!"

"Let's go to the bar room to talk."

Mann led a group of people into the Turbo Bar's private room, and Li You followed with Yuzu and Edge. There were eight people, and three big guys, completely filling up the small private room.

"We have a big job here!" Mann sat right in front of Li You, and he went straight to the point as soon as he opened his mouth, "Originally, this kind of job doesn't consider novices, but you have proved your strength!"

"...Pira, check his records and read them out."

"Why let me check...Oh shit!!"

Pira was still careless at first, but then he almost jumped up.

"You guys, you three just killed a cyber psychopath in the Bad Land!?"

"Ha——!?"

Before Li You could say anything, Rebecca couldn't sit still anymore and stood up, slamming the table: "What did you say?"

"Be more respectful to your brother." Pyrrha complained, "I said, these three guys, just by themselves, captured a cyber psychopath alive!"

Rebecca confirmed that she had not heard wrong, and turned to look at Li You: "... You went to the Bad Land for one day, and you did such a big job?"

Li You just smiled and didn't answer.

"No, why didn't you tell Sasha about this..."

Rebecca looked at Sasha, but saw that she was secretly looking at Li You, with a look of pride on her face... What a fucking miscalculation?

Rebecca: "...Fuck."

What a fucking miscalculation.

"Well, everyone knows their record, so there should be no doubt about what I'm going to say."

Mann adjusted his sunglasses, "Mr. Faraday has assigned us a big task. This time it's more exaggerated than before, and it's not just a small fight with biotechnology. This time we have to..."

"Deal with Arasaka."
