People are in Night City, start to add points

Since Moon didn't conjure her own image, she didn't know where to look, so she had to face Tanaka's direction with a pitiful expression.

"Can you hand over the information to Faraday for us and get a commission? When Mann asked Faraday for a deposit, he refused. I'm afraid..."

Mann, who was already smiling, suddenly froze.

He scratched his head in embarrassment, but didn't explain anything.

If it was Moon who negotiated, Faraday would not dare to play tricks, would he?

"Is that so?"

In the communication channel, Moon's vague electronic voice chuckled.

"Got it, then I'll go talk to him."

—————————————————————

Near Charter Hill, in a bar in Lili Park.

Faraday sat alone in the box, shaking a glass of wine in his hand.

He turned half sideways, with all four eyes looking out of the window, watching the bustling night scene outside.

[The information is done——moon]

At this time, a message was received in his brain, and Faraday's hand shaking the wine glass froze slightly, then the corners of his mouth raised upwards, and the smile on his face became wider and wider.

This guy named moon has never been able to call or send text messages honestly.

Whether it was the first call or discussing tasks in the "afterlife", he directly invaded the brain computer unreasonably, projecting his own image and voice.

"Hehe, it seems that the whole body antivirus just done, as well as the latest and most expensive firewall have played a role."

Faraday raised his head and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

Suddenly, a voice sounded in his mind.

"Military technology AIL300? Not bad, very powerful software."

Hey!

Faraday almost screamed, his hands shook violently, and a piece of wine swirled out of the glass and spilled on his dark red suit.

Volume 76: Chapter 75 Chapter [-]: Deposit

Faraday's throat throbbed vigorously, swallowed the wine already in his mouth, then picked up the towel with slightly trembling fingers, and repeatedly wiped the corners of his mouth and his suit.

The joy that had just appeared was extinguished in an instant. This emotional fluctuation and shock even made him feel a little pain in his heart.

"Please, can you communicate in a normal way next time..."

He almost squeezed out the words between his teeth, slowly turned his neck, and looked behind him with four eyes at the same time.

On the luxurious sofa by the Jinsigou, the young man wearing a rock leather jacket and his face covered by a mosaic was sitting.

"I think it's fine."

Moon shrugged and leaned back on the sofa back.

"It seems that military technology is not very good."

【Receiving encrypted files——】

Looking at the hints that appeared in the brain computer, the corners of Faraday's mouth twitched uncontrollably twice.

It feels really bad, like standing naked in front of other people.

"I see, I will send the information to the client... for military technology."

"Ah."

Moon nodded, the mosaic on his shoulders shook for a while, and then the indistinguishable electronic sound sounded again.

"There is one more thing, why, isn't the budget given for military technology not enough? The deposit has not arrived yet."

"of course not!"

Facing this light-sounding question, Faraday tensed up and immediately denied it. After a brief pause in his voice, he immediately organized his words, bowed slightly, and explained in a sincere tone.

"Mr. Moon, you know who is behind the scenes of this mission, so I will say it straight. Military Technology wants Arasaka's secrets, which can be solved not only by grabbing a project director, but also requires more detailed parameters. Even drawings."

"It's very dangerous, and I'm willing to pay the price accordingly, which is a commission of up to several million euros."

"Such a large amount of money, even a deposit is enough to drive people crazy. Who knows if they will run away from Night City after taking the deposit, give up the more difficult part, and even sell me to Arasaka?"

"You also know that in front of the company, a middleman like me is nothing...Of course, you are different from them. I absolutely believe in your character, and with your strength, there is absolutely no need to do such a thing. "

He finished speaking in one breath, and even used honorifics in the last few sentences, and then immediately opened a bank account and transferred a full 60 euros.

"Mr. Moon, here is your deposit, please check it."

With the help of the prosthetic body, Faraday tried his best to maintain the facial muscles, making his expression more sincere and natural.

"Ha...it sounds like a perfectly logical logic." Moon chuckled and shook his head.

Immediately afterwards, he stood up from the sofa, walked slowly to Faraday, and said meaningfully.

"I hope you really think so, instead of thinking that there is no need to pay a deposit. As for that, I will guarantee for them, and send the deposit."

As soon as the voice fell, his figure flickered twice, gradually fell apart, and disappeared from Faraday's vision.

And this middleman, who usually calls the wind and rain, still maintained the movements and expressions just now, and didn't stand up stiffly until more than ten seconds later.

Only then did he realize that his back was already wet and covered in cold sweat.

Faraday sighed heavily, then moved his limbs and gave a few instructions in the communication.

After a while, a subordinate came in dragging a suitcase.

He took out a new suit and put on a new suit. After finishing his appearance in front of the mirror, Faraday strode out of the box.

He wants to meet with the military technology liaison.

—————————————————————

North District Apartment, Room 1242, David sat in front of the computer, couldn't help smiling, his eyes became brighter.

60 million!

Not to mention owning it, he had never seen so much money in his previous life plus this life—not counted in the game.

And this is just a deposit. After the task is completed, his deposit will reach a staggering 600 million euros.

This is a huge amount of money in the true sense, and for 90.00% of ordinary people and low-level corporate dogs in this world, it is a huge amount of wealth that they can't even imagine.

At this moment, David had the urge to laugh up to the sky, or go out for a few laps, and it took him more than ten minutes to suppress this excitement.

In fact, what Faraday said is very reasonable, people die for money, birds die for food, let alone a profession like mercenary.

For mercenaries, even top-level mercenaries like Mann's team, tens of thousands of yuan is the norm, and it may only be a few years to encounter a large order of more than 20 to [-] yuan.

As for this kind of one whose total price is several million, it may only be once or twice in this life, and it needs to be earned with one's life, so it is not surprising to do anything for it.

However, as a traveler who has watched the "Edge Walker" animation, David knows exactly what Faraday is thinking.

I'm afraid he didn't intend to pay this money at all, and he was just drawing cakes before.

You must know that the prosthetic King Kong is one of the most important secrets of the Arasaka Company in Night City, and the mercenaries not only know the code name 'King Kong', but have even seen various information in Tanaka's brain. Kill people to silence the mouth, as for Faraday, he will naturally not provide help in this regard, but is happy to see the success.

David calmed down again. He made a pot of coffee for himself, then leaned back in the chair, and thoughts gradually emerged one after another.

In other words, a military technology will be added to the imaginary enemy...

Also, Arasaka has already noticed it, and now the person in charge of the project, Old Tanaka, has been arrested, so it must be much more difficult to get detailed information from the laboratory...

5 minutes later, the coffee is ready.

David drank a full glass and walked out of room 1242 slowly.

He has not fully recovered yet, but there is a high probability that he will not encounter any trouble for the next thing to do, and he can carry on with it.

It's time to take the chip from the 'God of Hacking' Raki Buttermos.

ps: I didn’t explain the settings clearly before, so let’s briefly talk about my problem here.

In the original setting, legendary hackers like Spider Murphy and business gods like Saburo Arasaka only had an intelligence of 10 points.

As I said, "there are very few people who stand side by side with you in the current time and space", this is already the limit of human beings as a creature without the use of prosthetic bodies. Buttermos and v in the game are special cases special case and should not be used as a reference.Therefore, the protagonist can complete these operations with the advantage of IQ and the knowledge given by 'computer expertise'.

I will also pay attention to this problem in the future, and explain the setting more specifically and in detail. I was too busy promoting the plot before ignoring these, and did not express too much.Well, for example, the hacker prosthetic body, just so the plot has advanced here.

Volume 77: Chapter 76 Chapter [-]: Gunshots in the Night

In the dark of night, David walked out of the apartment building and got into his beloved 'little mule'.

To be honest, although this car looks a bit broken and not very cool, the experience is still very good-strong power, smooth driving, and enough space.

There is a long distance from Watson District to the garbage mountain on the southeastern border of Night City, but David did not increase the speed of the car, but drove there in a leisurely manner.

The reason why he wanted to get Batemos's chip was naturally to prepare for the self-made hacker prosthetic body.

With the improvement of 'computer expertise', David learned more and more related knowledge, including cyber implants in this discipline.

In fact, the so-called hacking equipment, whether it is the most basic personal connection line, expensive hacking customer service, various operating systems, plug-ins, or even the unique portable high-computing equipment of the network monitor, they have only one core purpose, that is, to improve The amount of data transferred.

Better equipment can bring higher capacity, faster transmission speed, and stronger computing power.

To give an inappropriate example, various prosthetic bodies and equipment are equivalent to "mana", which can make your blue bar longer and your "mana" more vigorous.The relevant knowledge and technology are equivalent to the "realm". Even if the Nascent Soul Stage monks only have the mana value of the Qi Refining Stage, they can easily defeat Foundation Establishment.

This is also the reason why David has been able to go all the way to the present without a hacker prosthetic body. He only has a brain computer and a wireless network, and the amount of data transmission is quite limited, but his excellent intelligence and rich knowledge make up for these disadvantages—— 'Computer Expertise' represents all the theories and research results of human beings in this industry. Although David is still a long way from the full-level 'Computer Expertise', it is far beyond the amount of knowledge that normal hackers can access.

But then we have to face the laboratory at the Arasaka base. There must be a network server with a computing power far exceeding that of the portable device. Quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes. The situation is different, and the corresponding equipment must be supported.

Half an hour later, David came to the 'Medeski Gas Station' bus stop. Through the sporadic lights near the gas station, he could see tall iron towers and piles of rubbish all around him.

He continued to move forward along the road, and it didn't take long before the surroundings fell into complete darkness, leaving only the headlights of the 'little mule' to illuminate the front.

The road was not long, and soon we reached a dirt road covered with weeds and scattered garbage, and the stench mixed with various smells gradually became stronger.

With bumps from time to time, the 'little mule' stumbled to the end of the road.

David first turned off the wireless network of his brain computer, then slowed down his breathing as much as possible, and pushed the door to get out of the car.

According to the location in memory, the freezer containing Batemos's body is here, but unlike in the game, at this moment there is no black fat Dexter's body as a road sign, so David can only turn on the flashlight, bit by bit Look for.

This process is so difficult that it can even be called torture.

Just when David felt his nose sore and he was almost out of breath from the smoke, he finally found the white freezer under the framework of a pile of scrapped vehicles.

The flesh of the greatest hacker in history lies inside.

David didn't open it immediately, but stood quietly in front of the freezer, his expression gradually serious.

He knew exactly what Batemos had done. The moment he died physically and the life support system stopped sending codes, the primary network of the global Internet collapsed.

All kinds of viruses made by Batemos have been unleashed, destroying everything they encounter, corrupting and unleashing out-of-control AI, and constantly tearing the nerves of most Internet users.

All giant corporations and network experts are powerless to do anything about it, they can only create a 'black wall', an impenetrable firewall, to separate the primary network.

Since then, the network available to people has become a fragmented local area network.

There is no doubt that this guy is dangerous, even David's target, 'Bate Moss' access warehouse', contains a deadly virus.

David took a deep breath, clamped the flashlight under his arm, then dragged the lid of the freezer and lifted it vigorously.

A cold air mixed with bloody and rotten smell gushed out instantly. Under the light of the flashlight, a male corpse with blue eye sockets in black clothes appeared in front of David.

Since the freezer was still powered on, the body, which had been dead for more than 20 years, was still intact and not completely decomposed.

David resisted the stench that was several times more irritating than the surrounding environment, reached down, and pinched a box at the waist of the corpse, where the access compartment of Batemos was installed.

Considering that the time is different from that in the 2077 game, David also tried to check other places in the freezer, but found nothing.

Sighing, he took out the iron box, then closed the lid of the freezer forcefully, took a few steps back, and finally felt that the stench had dissipated a lot.

In fact, this access compartment has been kept in the freezer, and has been severely damaged by water vapor erosion, so it cannot be used directly.

But after all, it is the highest-quality 'legendary' item in the game, so David decided to try to repair or even modify it with the help of the system.

You must know that high-quality items in reality are far less common than in games. There are only a few pieces of blue 'rare' quality equipment at most among the elite and small bosses of various gangs.

And as the absolute elite of the Arasaka company's middle-level, V also mainly wears blue clothes, only the purple "epic" quality of the leg acceleration prosthesis.

It can be seen that the higher-level orange equipment probably only exists in the secret laboratories of major companies, and it is possible to develop the stockpile technology regardless of the cost. The software is the product of the experimental route and verification technology.
