"I already know about you. Now Royce has released the news that the two of you have been included in the wanted list and offered a reward of [-] for your heads."

"Fifty thousand? Twenty-five thousand per person? It's too little..."

Hearing Lu Qi's indifferent appearance that he still wanted to complain about the amount of the reward, Evelyn couldn't help raising her brows, and then said:

"Part of the reason why you got into trouble with the Maelstrom Gang is because of my entrustment. Therefore, whatever help you need, just ask, and I will do my best."

"If you want to go, I can immediately arrange the earliest ferry for you tonight..."

Before Evelyn could finish speaking, Lu Qi interrupted her;

"Go? Who said you want to go?"

Hearing this, Evelyn couldn't help but pause, and looked at Lu Qi with interested eyes:

"Of course it's you, or who else is there. Royce even dared to kill his own brother and boss. You don't think he will let you two unknown people who dare to break ground in Tai Sui?"

"It's just what I want." The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and Lu Qi's eyes were already full of sharpness: "Because, I don't intend to let go of the guy who dares to attack us!"

"Although I admire your courage and guts, the other party is the Maelstrom Gang that controls the entire northern part of Watson District, a group of lunatics who can't handle anyone..."

Hearing this, Lu Qi couldn't help spreading his hands, and said with a light smile:

"Evelyn, although we haven't known each other for a long time, you don't know us well. But, you underestimate us too..."

Lu Qi's confident appearance made Evelyn a little unpredictable.

She couldn't tell whether this black-haired man was too naive and stupid, or whether he really had enough ability to settle this trouble.

However, Evelyn suddenly had a strong feeling that the black-haired man in front of her might belong to the latter...

When her thoughts drifted away, Evelyn did not forget to say: "Oh? It seems that you have already made plans."

"You're right, I've thought of a plan."

"Can you tell me about your plan?"

Meeting Evelyn's curious eyes, Lu Qi shrugged his shoulders and responded casually: "The one who issued the arrest warrant is the new boss of the Vortex Gang, "Royce", right?"

"Then if I kill him, won't the Maelstrom Gang stop wanting us?"

"Are you planning to start a war with the Vortex Gang?" As if hearing some big joke, Evelyn frowned suddenly, "Just the two of you?"

"No, I'm enough alone."

As soon as the words fell, Lu Qi's expression and tone had already turned into frost-like ruthlessness:

"Believe me, after today, the Vortex Gang will cease to exist!"

Chapter 625 Whirlpool Gang, We Are Here to Negotiate

Although I don't know where Lu Qi's unfounded self-confidence comes from.However, Evelyn kept her word and provided the help his plan needed.

The main thing is to introduce him to a black market arms dealer so that he can buy the weapons and equipment he wants, and a freelance hacker hired from the black market.

It is foreseeable that the old lair of the Vortex Gang must be heavily guarded.

In addition to a large number of enemies who have been highly transformed by cyber prosthetics, various high-tech advanced weapons will become his obstacles.

When necessary, he may need the help of hackers, crack the firewall, invade the system or something...

It is worth mentioning that when Lu Qi heard that the black market arms dealer introduced the function of pulse grenades to himself, he couldn't help stuffing a few more pulse grenades into the [item space].

A pulse grenade, after being thrown and exploded, will release a strong electromagnetic pulse, destroying all electronic equipment within the explosion range.

In the entire Night City, there is almost no place or person that is not connected to electronic devices!

Used well, pulse grenades can be a very useful crowd control tool...

. . .

However, everything was ready, and a small problem appeared again.

When Lu Qi explained to Xili that he planned to go to Longtan alone to solve the plan of the Whirlpool Gang, Xili's reaction was just as he expected:

"I want to go together too! I am no longer a child, I can protect myself!"

The reason for not bringing Xili with him is very simple - Lu Qi was not sure that he would be able to protect Xili unscathed under the siege of the enemy!

The cyberpunk world is full of high-tech that he can't imagine, and even black technology with a high risk factor.

Moreover, Ciri is not like himself, who has been strengthened by viruses and has a certain resistance to thermal weapons.Even an ordinary bullet might take her life.

Ciri's expression was serious and his eyes were determined, as if he could not give in.

"Shirley, listen to me..."

Before Lu Qi could speak to persuade him, Xili interrupted him directly:

"You don't even know how much I've been through! To be able to live until now, I have paid too much... And my life doesn't need others to make decisions for me!"

After a pause, the silver-haired girl stared directly at Lu Qi's pair of black eyes, and said loudly:

"This is the trouble we caused together, so we should solve it together! So, you don't want to abandon me!"

Fully aware of Xili's resolute attitude, Lu Qi's prepared words of persuasion could only turn into a faint sigh of helplessness.

"Okay then, but I have one condition, you must promise me!"

"you say!"

"For this operation, you must listen to me, and don't act on your own!"

"no problem!"

. . .

eight pm.

North of Watson Industrial Area, Whole Foods Factory.

This seemingly inconspicuous abandoned factory is the entire Watson District, a dead zone that no one dares to approach easily.

Just because it is the lair of the "Vortex Gang", one of the seven major gangs in Night City!

The Vortex Gang is a well-known lunatic gang in the entire Night City.

These cyberpsychopaths who are keen on deep illegal cyber transformation are entrenched in the northern industrial area of ​​​​Night City, using various illegal methods to make profits. They are characterized by sophisticated cyber transformation, and their behavior is crazy and extremely dangerous.

Among them, the new boss, Simon "Robert Doyle", is the most dangerous and crazy.

According to Evelyn's description, this is a reckless, moody pervert who will even throw brothers and friends into industrial microwave dryers.

Because, rumor has it, someone has seen him do it!

Even though he knew what kind of enemy he was going to face, Lu Qi didn't have the slightest fear, on the contrary, he became more determined to deal with the Whirlpool Gang!

Because, such a dangerous enemy, only by completely destroying it, can he and Xili rest easy.

rumbling...

Accompanied by the roar of the engine, a black motorcycle suddenly stopped on the side of the road opposite the food factory.

The ones sitting on it were naturally Lu Qi and Xili.

"Remember, listen to my command later, don't act rashly."

"Got it, you've said it the fifth time..."

After finishing speaking, Shirley eagerly took out his pistol and put on a pose ready to fight.

Seeing this, Lu Qi frowned, stretched out his hand, and said, "By the way, give me your gun and keep it for you temporarily."

Hearing this, Ciri was taken aback for a moment, "Eh? Without guns, how do we get in?"

"Who said we attacked from the front?" Lu Qi put Xili's pistol in and said, "We are here to negotiate, not to attack from the front."

"negotiation?"

When Xili, who was puzzled, saw the half-smile on Lu Qi's face, she suddenly understood.

"You plan to let them put us in and then deal with them?!"

"Not too stupid."

Shirley quickly found the loophole in this false negotiation: "What if they don't let us in, but choose to attack us outside?"

Shrugging indifferently, Lu Qi responded casually:

"Then do it directly! For us, it's just a little more effort. No matter what, we will go in..."

Pulling the clothes on his body, Lu Qi immediately said:

"Are you ready?"

"All right."

"Then let's go!"

As soon as the words fell, the two of them strode towards the dim and dark factory like brave warriors...

Following the oil drums and dim lights at the factory gate, the two soon came to an electronic gate.

On the wall, the logo of the Maelstrom gang was spray-painted: a capital "M" letter was covered with an infiltrating cyberhuman-headed mechanical spider!

In addition, there is an intercom that can communicate with the factory.

Before Lu Qi reached out to press the intercom, a surveillance camera above the gate turned around and aimed at the two of them.

After pressing the intercom, after a while, a hoarse voice came from inside:

"Hmm... Why do these two new faces look so familiar? Oh, it turns out they are the ones on our wanted list! Are you here to die?"

Let me add a word, the reading app I am using recently, [Mimi Reading App\] has many sources of books, all books,!

"We are here to see Royce. We hope to explain the conflict with your gang today."

"Explanation? Do we need to listen to the dead man's explanation?" the hoarse voice said maliciously.

However, Lu Qi didn't. Instead, he looked directly at the surveillance camera and said in a deep voice to the person hiding behind the walkie-talkie:

"You are not qualified to talk to us! We just want to talk to Royce, the boss of the Vortex Gang. As for how to deal with this matter, there will naturally be a result."

"You fucking..."

Before the hoarse voice got angry, a thick voice suddenly interrupted roughly:

"Dum, don't talk nonsense, let them in!"

"Yes, boss!"

As soon as the words fell, the gate in front of the two of them opened with a "swish"...

Chapter 626 Dead people are not qualified to negotiate terms

As soon as the gate opened, Lu Qi almost pulled out his pistol when he saw the two automatic security turrets aimed at the door.

Fortunately, he held back.

Besides, the two members of the Vortex Gang who were aiming at them with submachine guns in their hands did not arouse Lu Qi's attention at all.

A member of the Uzumaki Gang who replaced his eyes with a military scanner walked up to the two of them, scanned them up and down, and found that the two were not carrying any weapons. He could not help but report:

"Boss, no weapons!"

"Dum, bring them to the computer room to meet me!"

"Yes!"

"Come with me, you bastards!"

Following the Maelstrom Gang member named "Dum", Lu Qi and Xili went deep into the food factory along the glowing data cable on the ground.

It is worth mentioning that in the entire food factory, apart from the strong smell of synthetic meat, there is no food-related production equipment or packaging at all.

Instead, there are various equipment boxes with "military technology" written on them, as well as anti-personnel landmines that can be seen everywhere.

what's the situation?Did these guys just make a big deal?

When his thoughts drifted away, he silently wrote down the name "Military Technology", and Lu Qi continued to follow Dum without saying a word, heading for the computer room.

Surveillance cameras, anti-personnel mines, automatic security turrets...

As he had expected in advance, this food factory was like a fortress armed to the brim.
