People are in Night City, start to add points

"Well, I'll go there, thanks."

After hanging up the communication, David thought silently.

In a few days, the 'Universal Prosthetic Body Drive' will be officially put into the market. As the producer, I will also go to Arasaka Tower.

And from now on, there is no reason to ask for leave from the academy. If you want to upgrade, you must get it done before then.

Thinking of this, he opened the map in his brain and found the location of the 'Palm' bar.

VOLUME 114: Chapter [-]

I started to have a low fever and cough last night. Today it is 37.8. My whole body hurts, especially my lower back. Now I have the strength to get up on the bed.

There are a few chapters in the manuscript, but they need to be revised before they can be published. If it can be better tomorrow

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

Volume 115: Chapter 110 Chapter [-] Chapter [-]: Before the Storm

A shabby drink stand on Pierce Street.

A few dirty and old plastic stools are placed on the side of the street, and a little further away is a raised brick wall with bottles of drinks placed on it.

The boy was half squatting and half sitting on the corner chair, holding a glass bottle containing orange-red liquid in his hand.

This is a unique local drink, made from a small amount of beer, lime juice, tomato juice and chili powder, the taste is quite exciting.

It seemed that the boy was not used to this flavor, and sat there with his head lowered all the time, not touching the glass bottle in his hand for a long time.

As part of the southeastern part of the Schönbrunn district, Pierce Street is synonymous with poverty and chaos. There are few complete buildings here, and only the 'Palm' bar in the middle of the street can barely be called decent.

There are dilapidated shacks everywhere, from which you can occasionally see numb, tired faces stepping out of them.

At this time, the boy seemed to have sat enough, put the glass bottle on the ground, stood up and walked slowly along the wall.

After he walked away, a ragged tramp emerged from the nearby shadows, picked up the glass bottle left by the boy, and couldn't wait to drink it.

"what--!"

Suddenly, sharp screams erupted from the 'Palm' bar not far away, and then all kinds of curses and shouts emerged one after another. Even standing on the street, one could feel the chaos inside.

Hundreds of meters away, David didn't look back, and his footsteps didn't stop because of this. He continued to walk along the street.

[Complete the task: the head is still there]

[Have you heard of Romeo and Juliet? 】

[Reward: Reputation +834]

[No one knows how these Sixth Street Gang members died, but the account will definitely be counted on Valentino]

[Reward: character experience +83%]

[There are not many people, and the strength is not very good, so you can only get these]

Before he hacked into the 'Palm' bar and used golems to remotely deal with the Sixth Street Gang who had infiltrated the Meiquan District, David also figured out their purpose.

Pretty corny actually, a Valentino guy named Gustavo Horta, in love with a Sixth Street gang woman.

These two gangs are deadly rivals. They are incompatible with each other, and they have a lot of each other's lives on their hands. Obviously, this kind of love affair should not be known to others.

However, although they concealed it well, they still leaked a little bit of information, so the woman's father, a small leader of the Sixth Street Gang, sent someone to investigate.

"It sounds familiar... If I remember correctly, there seems to be a task related to this matter in the 2077 game."

David recalled in his heart.

In 2077, the relationship between the fateful mandarin ducks has been completely exposed, and the woman's father will hire the protagonist in the game to kill the Valentino man who hooked up with his daughter.

Of course, these have nothing to do with David, he just wanted to gain some experience, so he killed a few members of the Sixth Street Gang who usually had dirty hands and feet.

The experience rewarded by the mission system this time is still not more than 100%, but it is still a lot more than those a few days ago.

And David's character level has also reached level 14 through this, and it is obviously a bit more, not far from level 15.

Maybe pick up some more quests and get to level 15 before raiding the transporter?

As he headed north and gradually moved away from the southeast area, there were more and more pedestrians on the street, and the surrounding buildings gradually became brighter and tidier.

David was not in a hurry to add points, but began to think about how to use the spare time before resuming campus life in the next few days.

Maybe you can look for the lair of the scavengers. This gang of scum often haunts the southern part of Meiquan District, and more importantly, there is no psychological burden at all to kill them.

In addition, there is a plan to further enhance the effect of 'memory modification', which is also more troublesome, and it takes time to do it...

"I'll give you a suggestion, if there are any useful things, prepare them in advance."

In the abandoned small building in Watson District, the temporary resident of the mercenary team.

Mann looked at his team members with a serious expression.

"You also know that, although we don't know who is behind the scenes, there is no doubt that we are in a confrontation between companies and companies."

"The reason why we were able to snatch away the target person last time was that apart from Mr. Moon's strong performance, there was also the reason that Arasaka Company could only deploy special agents and security personnel due to time constraints."

Perhaps because the recent investigation tasks have been relatively smooth, Mann has not entered the state of restlessness and confusion.

At this time, he felt that his thoughts were exceptionally clear, and his reason returned to his brain.

"But this time it's completely different. Although we have some advantages as the active side, once we encounter an enemy, we'll probably face Arasaka's professional soldiers. That's a completely different level of power."

"The matter has come to this point, there is no turning back, everyone, please prepare yourself."

After he finished speaking, the hall fell into a long silence, and everyone felt heavy in their hearts.

"I don't need to talk about firearms and ammunition. They must be checked in advance."

After about half a minute, Dorio clapped her hands to break the silence.

"More grenades, too, Pyrrha?"

"Do not worry."

In front of such a serious topic, this guy who always had a hippie smile became serious.

"Not just common fragmentation grenades, electromagnetic pulse, biochemical, incendiary bombs...all of these are needed."

Dorio nodded, and after thinking for a moment, she turned her gaze to Lucy and Qiwei.

"And you two, even with the help of Mr. Moon's level of hackers, you can't relax. Once a battle breaks out, you need to provide remote support to share the pressure of Mr. Moon."

"By the way, how is the boy from Arasaka Academy doing?"

"……everything is normal."

The voice froze for a while, but Lucy still replied in a normal tone.

"That's good."

Dorio obviously just said it casually when she thought about it, and immediately changed the subject.

"Also, maybe it's time for us to find a professional driver."

"I'll get in touch."

Mann, who hadn't spoken just now, spoke now.

"There is an old buddy from the homeless family. His driving skills are very good, so there is no need to worry about leaking secrets."

"On top of that, you'll have to buy another, no, maybe two new cars."

"It needs to be big enough to hold a lot of weapons..."

Amidst the discussions among the crowd, Lucy quietly lowered her head.

For some reason, her expression gradually became a little complicated.

Volume 116: Chapter 110 Chapter [-] Chapter [-]: Temptation, or Temptation

Three days later, the apartment building in the Schönbrunn district went down.

A silver-gray car slowly stopped on the street in front of the apartment.

Its slightly angular, retro aesthetic appearance attracted a lot of attention, but when the door opened and the robust bodyguards in Arasaka uniforms walked out, everyone continued to go their separate ways as if nothing had happened.

Moments later, a boy in a black suit appeared at the door of the apartment.

He straightened the cuffs and neckline with gold trim, then walked quickly to the silver-gray car, and leaned into the back seat.

"Nice clothes, very suitable for your temperament."

Bramwell leaned back in his chair, looked at David with scrutiny, and said with a smile.

"But mass-produced garments have the unavoidable downside that they're always less detailed and don't fit as well."

"Bespoke models are too expensive."

David shook his head with a wry smile.

"Actually, you can already afford it, but it doesn't matter if you change it later—go to Arasaka Tower."

After giving instructions to the driver in the front row, Bramwell withdrew his gaze and put his hands lightly on his lap.

"Universal firmware is already on the market."

Hearing this sentence, David immediately subconsciously straightened his back.

"A little faster than I thought."

After a little thought, he said sincerely.

"That's because the marketing department has slightly modified your work and put it on the market in stages."

Bramwell shook his head with a smile and replied in a soft voice.

"They divided the general-purpose firmware into three price levels, each level can improve the effect differently, and now only the most basic level is on the market."

"The sales volume is very good, and according to the feedback from the marketing department, users are also looking forward to the next few gears."

Listening to the female executive's introduction, David also smiled, but sighed silently in his heart.

Sure enough, capital will not give back any chance to make money...

Under the effect of the 'Crystal Dome' technology, the body of the car became transparent, and the surrounding scenery receding rapidly appeared in front of David without any cover.

"It's not a small achievement this time. Thanks to you, the bonuses of several departments can be added."

At this moment, Bramwell spoke again.

"Originally, I planned to go to the Yanbi Building and hold a celebration party, but considering that you are still a student, you should keep it a little bit secret, lest other people will be jealous and do something irrational, so we will not celebrate publicly."

other people?

After thinking for a while, David immediately realized that the female executive was talking about other factions in the Arasaka company.

As the middle-level real power of the Night City branch, Bramwell must have many 'political enemies', and he, who has shown a strong talent in scientific research, is indeed very likely to be attacked by these people.

At this point, though, to make the point, whether...

"Of course, if you're willing to join early, that's a different story."

On the other side, the female executive changed the subject and showed a meaningful smile.

"After becoming a full-time employee, you can directly receive all the honor and treatment you deserve, including the company's protection of important people—not just you, but also your mother."

Tsk, that sounds really tempting.

As a poor boy, a commoner who grew up in a low-cost apartment, faced with these money and treatment that he had never seen before, he threatened to share and share!Small, said resource; source' group: 9? 8; 0; 2? . 0'. 5,8! "5.;6 When it comes to offers, it's really hard to say no.

David's eyes moved slightly, and he thought of a lot in an instant.

No, this is not a temptation, but a temptation.

"Sorry, I want to formally join the job after graduation."

After answering cautiously, seeing Bramwell's smile deepening, David knew he had guessed right.

From the perspective of female executives, if he accepts it at this time, it means that he is only suitable for being a pure researcher and not suitable for moving to a higher position.

If he doesn't accept it, it proves that his ambition from his mother's wish is real, and he has the most basic ability to judge the world and judge the situation.
