Wild West.

The sand and dust scattered with the wind, rolling up a yellowish world, and it was bleak.

In a weathered stone forest, Mann and the others were hiding behind the slag and stones, their faces were full of anxiety and nervousness, and the corners of their chapped lips were overflowing with blood, dried and scabbed by the dry yellow wind.

Mann frowned, fine beads of sweat slid down his forehead, and his broad ribcage whirred like a blower.

The use of military-grade Sianweistein many times in a row put him under a huge physical load.

Under the scorching desert sun, he suffered both physical and mental scorching.

Rebecca discovers that Mann has been shot multiple times, and although the subcutaneous armor has partially blocked the damage, the heavy fire has left burn marks.

She was very worried, "Mann, can you still resist?" Couldn't use it anymore! ”

Men endured the pain that penetrated deep into his bone marrow, and reluctantly squeezed out a smile: "It's okay, I'll just rest for a while, did they chase after me?" ”

Rebecca cautiously poked her head out, checked the surrounding situation, and said in a deep voice: "They are still looking, there are more stones here, enough for us to hide for a while, we have already contacted Dorio and them, just wait." ”

Pila took out the few high-explosive grenades left on her body, sandwiched them between her metal fingers, so as to make a final wave of counterattack, and then scolded angrily: "Those who ride horses, I knew that Lao Tzu would bring more grenades and send them all to the western sky." ”

Rebecca couldn't help but complain: "I said that the four-eyed boy was unreliable, and he didn't talk about credit, so he did it to us with his backhand, saying that there was a missing piece of goods, why don't you blame those useless guys for only grabbing one piece." ”

Mann could only laugh bitterly twice, the muscles of the wound were pulled and pulled, and he grinned in pain: "Careless, he probably didn't intend to let us go from the beginning." ”

He estimated that it was Dorio and the others, who helped David guard the goods, and were discovered by Faraday.

Just now, Mann pursued the hijacking convoy as planned, and after a chase battle, the goods were about to arrive, but another team was killed halfway.

The sudden attack knocked them to the ground, even with Mann.

Mann discovers that the team attacking them is actually the Arasaka troops, who are well-armed and even equipped with plasma heavy artillery, and look very similar to Tang Yu's sidekick on the night of the abandoned steel mill.

Arasaka Elite Squad?

To Mann's surprise, Faraday was also on the squad.

At first, Mann thought it was just a misunderstanding, and was just about to get out of the car to explain, when he was violently attacked by the other party, and had to urgently turn on a quick nervous reaction, and hid with Pyra and Rebecca.

And the hijacking of the convoy personnel, without exception, all died.

Followed by.

Mann saw a man in a white suit in the Arasaka crowd and gave Faraday an order, approached the amphibious armored vehicle, opened the rear compartment door and got in, and the vehicle started to drive in the direction of the city.

Faraday stayed behind and continued to clear the field with the Arasaka elite team.

Mann was shot and wounded several times in several encounters with the elite team, and he was wounded by a bullet himself.

Due to the relatively large weathered stone forest, the three of them took advantage of their speed to hide behind large rocks, and it was difficult for Farah to spot them for a while.

But this is not a long-term solution, and sooner or later you will be killed by the other party.

Faraday walked slowly through the regolithic forest with his hands in his trouser pockets, each with three prosthetic eyes on the left side of his face, constantly rotating to scan his surroundings.

At the same time, the Arasaka elite team cooperated with the search for traces, and the Arasaka armed floating vehicle in the air overhead emitted a laser matrix to increase the detection range.

Faraday was sure that Mann was hiding nearby, and said confidently as he walked, "I am amazed by the quality of your Sianweistan, equipped with the experimental nature of military technology, tsk, I didn't expect you to be willing to be a guinea pig." It seems that the one in the Arasaka company is very important to you, are you running an errand for him? ”

The sand wind was blowing, and no one answered.

But Faraday didn't care, believing that Mann could hear him, and continued to irritate.

"Seriously, Arasaka's surname Tang is no longer reliable, and today is probably his last day in Night City."

"After he falls, the middleman at Lizzy's Bar and you will not be able to stay any longer."

Faraday felt that his luck was not bad, and at the beginning, Arasaka's high-level Tang Yu supported the new middleman Gloria, forcing him to temporarily back down, losing the big order on the military technology side.

Faraday was extremely annoyed by the fact that he was so disappointed in military technology that even Mann no longer listened to his orders.

I didn't expect time to pass so quickly, everything turned around again, and the senior management of Arasaka Company took the initiative to contact him.

Faraday used the information he knew about Mann's team and Gloria to communicate with the Arasaka Special Operations Department, and confirmed that the senior management of the Arasaka Company who supported Gloria was Tang Yu.

For this reason, Arasaka once again gave him a chance to turn over, assisting Hyashiro Kenji to get the goods, and at the same time cutting off Tang Yu's wings, Martinez's mother and son, and Mann's team.

Kenji Hahabai had already gotten the prosthetic body he wanted just now, and as for the other goods, it was left to David Martinez by the R&D department, and it was not in his consideration.

When Rebecca heard Faraday mention Tang Yu, her heart immediately burst into flames, and she wanted to know urgently what would happen to Tang Yu today.

But when he saw that Mann was seriously injured and everyone was in deep danger, he gritted his teeth and endured the conflict, and kept cursing in his heart: "Damn! Damn it! Damn it! ”

Mann looked helpless, Faraday's words were almost true, but he didn't expect to be discovered in the end.

He was worried about this problem at the beginning, and cooperating with Tang Yu would implicate the Mann team.

Infighting between companies is far more than just the life and death of one person.

But Mann knew that without Tang Yu, they might not have been able to get to where they are today.

It was he who insisted on pretending to be a military-grade Sianweistan, and it was he who owed Tang Yu favors again and again, no wonder others.

Mann's eyes gradually became firm, if he could exchange his life for a life, maybe all this would end here, at least he could help Tang Yu buy some more buffer time.

He looked at the surrounding stone forest environment, thinking about coming together, finding an opportunity to rush forward, fight Faraday to the death, and buy time for Rebecca and Pyra to escape.

Rebecca saw that Mann's expression was wrong, and began to recreate the previous stunned and trance, and immediately understood his thoughts, and reminded: "Mann! Cheer up, we can get out, Dorio and they'll be here in no time! ”

Mann's stiff face showed a somewhat calm smile: "Pila, you will use the grenade to cover my actions later, and you should hurry up and flee after the detonation." ”

Before Rebecca could retort, Mann raised his hand and slammed her on the back of the neck, causing Rebecca to faint.

Seeing this, Pyra said helplessly: "Are you sure? ”

Mann nodded heavily, his gaze determined, his mind clear at this moment.

His quick nerve reflexes are enough to use a long distance, and he is certain to take out Faraday.

The Assasaka Elite Team implanted Silvestan is also of good quality, with a bit of inferior speed and reaction time, but an absolute advantage in numbers.

Mann only has one chance to make a move, and if he succeeds, he can exchange one, and if he misses, he will only buy Pyra and Rebecca a little time to escape.

Seeing that Mann's plan had been decided, Pyra suddenly said, "Mann, if we can go back together, I swear to give you a better arm cannon to save you from getting stuck at a critical moment." ”

Mann smiled, and after a few minutes of rest, he clearly felt that the temperature of his spine had dropped a lot, not as prickly as before.

He tried to calm his chest breathing, and in the moment when his whole body relaxed, he shouted, "Go! ”

Listening to the order, Pyra quickly threw all the grenades and fell towards the Arasaka elite team.

Burst! Burst! Burst!

Several Arasaka personnel immediately dodged away from the explosion site, but were still affected by the fragments of high-explosive grenades.

In the chaos.

Mann immediately activated his rapid nervous reactions, swept out from the other side, and took advantage of the aftermath of the explosion to aim at his target Faraday, and rushed straight to kill.

Farah's third prosthetic eye spun at high speed, trying to catch the attacking figure, but the opponent was too fast to react.

A fast wind whistled, and Farah's fourth eye widened, and his vision was filled with the muzzle of a black hole.

Suddenly.

The corners of Faraday's mouth went up.

Zizizi.

An electric spark suddenly erupted from Mann's spine, and the whole person suddenly lost strength, because of the fast-moving inertia, he fell out, and continued to roll and splash a cloud of dust, lying on the ground convulsed unconscious.

Faraday put his hands firmly in his pockets, looked sideways at Mann, and sneered disdainfully, "Damn cyberpunk, at least learn to have a long memory." ”

The Arasaka elite squad immediately resumed their formation, and then dodged in pursuit, blocking Pila's path with a plasma cannon.

Pila carried Rebecca on her shoulder, facing the muzzle of the arcing gun, not daring to make the slightest move.

Faraday raised his hand, just as he was about to give the order to kill everyone present.

Suddenly.

A huge, invisible weight enveloped him, as if a thousand pounds of pressure hit every joint in his body.

Almost instantly, the ground around him sank.

Faraday's bones and joints were destroyed by this invisible weight, and his entire body was knocked to the ground in an exaggerated curvature.

His legs were folded above his head, half of his cheeks were pressed against the dirt, and his three prosthetic eyes bulged out in disbelief.

When a humanoid prosthetic mech arrived at the scene, Faraday understood what was going on.

His eyes were wide and full of unwillingness, and he tried to open his mouth and muttered, "You, you are just a low-level miscellaneous in Arasaka, how dare you."

Poof!

Another heavy pressure fell, and the blood and flesh residue splashed, directly crushing Faraday's whole person into meat sauce.

David successfully loaded the prosthetic King Kong and finally arrived at the scene at the last minute.

Sweating profusely, his eyes anxiously searched for the traces of another armored vehicle, but he was greeted only by the muzzle of the Black Hole Hole of the Arasaka Elite Squad.

David gasped and immediately identified himself, but the other party turned a blind eye and attacked him directly.

As a last resort, David could only raise his huge mechanical arms to block the vital point and withstand the first wave of the opponent's attack.

He seized the opportunity to use magnetic attachment and snatched everyone's guns almost instantaneously.

Arasaka, armed with a float car overhead, launched a heavy fire attack on David, and at the same time activated the heavy pressure matrix to envelop him.

David could only activate the anti-gravity system, holding on to it, and the soles of his mechanical feet stepped out of the deep pit.

Facing the rain of bullets and the weight of the matrix, he raised his gun at the armed float and fired several slurry cannons.

The arc enveloped the floating vehicle, quickly destroying its electronic equipment, and the floating vehicle's power system malfunctioned, and its body was crooked and unstable.

David felt the pressure loosen all over his body, but the elite team members around him continued to shoot at him.

He became more and more impatient and tried to shout to dissuade them, but all he responded to was bullets.

In a fit of rage, David activated the mechanical soles running wheel, and when he dodged the bullet attack, he quickly activated the magnetic field and pressed all the members of the elite team into meat sauce.

The battle ended once and for all.

He stood in place, and saw the wreckage in front of him in disbelief, the prosthetic body Vajra was really powerful.

Dorio and Kivi arrive at the scene and quickly rescue Mann from the ground, and after examining his vital signs, they find that there is still a faint breath and he is still conscious.

David walked up to the crowd and said apologetically, "Sorry, I'm late." ”

Dorio said, "Mann is still saved, and he must be sent back to the city for rescue." ”

David was still thinking about another cargo: "Hurry up and get on the car." ”

Qi Wei glanced at David, like a mechanical giant, but his face was pale and bloodless, and said indifferently: "You'd better not use this prosthetic body anymore, it's obvious that you can't bear this level of load for long." ”

David resolutely said, "It's okay, I can bear it." ”

After speaking.

Scarlet nosebleeds flowed down his nostrils, gurgling and bubbling non-stop.

Qi Wei didn't persuade anymore, everyone has their own choice.

Just as Dorio lifted Mann up and carried him on his back, Mann suddenly opened his eyes and looked at David with difficulty.

"Faraday, he still has a backhand. Gloria's side, there's danger."

David was stunned, he never thought that this matter would implicate his mother.

There was no time to ask, he had to rush back to Night City as quickly as possible, and this prosthetic King Kong definitely couldn't take it off.

Dolio added: "This attack is most likely aimed at your organization, and it concerns Mr. Arasaka Tang, so I advise you to act cautiously."

David struggled to calm down, turned his righteous eyes, and called out to his mother first.

A moment later, half of the stone in his heart fell.

Gloria tells David that everything is fine on her side.

David reminds her to be careful, and Faraday arranges a covert operation.

After telling him, he immediately decided to intercept the fleeing cargo and then rush to Night City.

David activated the positioning system, looking for clues to lock the location of the amphibious armored vehicle and the route it was taking.

Company Square?

He found that the other party had not changed its navigation positioning, and the armored vehicle was still driving itself towards the intended destination.

David looked at the prosthetic King Kong on his body and instantly guessed something.

The other party seems to be aiming for the goods in the car, an implant that is comparable to or even surpasses the prosthetic King Kong.

Dorio was carrying Mann on his back to get him to the car, when he suddenly felt like he had been pinched twice in front of him.

She glared at Mann behind her angrily, only to see him say with a hippie smile.

"This is much more effective than a suppressant."

"By the way, go find Lao Wei, he will be able to save me back."

With that, Mann couldn't hold on any longer, and fell on Dorio's shoulder.

Dolio immediately helped Mann into the car, turned to David and shouted, "Well, what are you going to do?" ”

David said frankly: "I may have to trouble you, I'll go to the company square." ”

The crowd no longer delayed time, and crowded into the front of the car, giving up the position in the rear compartment to David.

In the carriage.

David's mechanical block took up most of the space in the back seat, and Qi Wei plugged the prosthetic diamond cable into the laptop to quickly help him debug the function.

"There is slight damage to the prosthetic Vajra, which does not affect the use."

"But you need to inject inhibitors now, otherwise the high-intensity nerve pain stimulation will break your will."

Hearing Qi Wei's words, Dorio quickly took out a few bottles of green jars, both breathing and injecting, and handed them to Qi Wei.

"It's Mann's backup, he can't use it now, give it to him."

Qi Wei put a breathing inhibitor on David's mouth and nose, pressed the switch, and a mist sprayed into his nasal cavity, instantly cooling his brain and lungs.

David said in a deep voice, "Thank you." ”

Now his limbs are all huge mechanical blocks, crammed into the back compartment, and he can't complete the injection action, so he can only rely on Qi Wei's help.

Mann is lying in Dorio's arms, having taken multiple vials of respiratory suppressants, but his vital signs are still weak.

Rebecca slept on the board of the carriage, with Pyra in charge of it.

After David inhaled and injected the inhibitor one after another, he felt that the whole person was cooled, and the burning pain caused by the prosthesis was reduced a lot.

Qi Wei took off the data connection and said in a deep voice, "It is recommended that you rest for a while and replenish some strength." ”

David closed his eyes, and after a moment, he asked, "You know about my mother, she kept it from me." ”

"We had a car accident that day, which led to the misunderstanding that followed."

"Actually, I want to thank you, that money is really important to us."

Qi Wei looked up at David and did not speak, and Dolio, who was sitting in front of her, replied.

"The misunderstanding has been resolved, and we were blamed for being too impulsive and not learning about your situation."

As he spoke, Dorio touched Mann's rough cheeks, "Mann has no ill intentions, and those who know him know that he is a man of faith." ”

David continued, "So that transaction was completed with the help of Mr. Tang, is the transaction the Mann's Sianweistan?" ”

When he arrived at the scene, he noticed that Mann's rapid nervous reflexes were so fast that he even passed the Arasaka elite squad, and even he couldn't catch up.

David accepted the basic cyber transformation of Arasaka Company, and because of the field mission, the quality of the prosthesis on his body was higher than that of other employees of the company.

Similarly, he was implanted with Ann West, but the effect was much worse than Mann's.

Dorio admits David's speculation, and there is no need to hide it when things have developed to this point.

She could have a hunch that David must have Tang Yu's help when he joined Arasaka, plus he was Gloria's son, and he had just rescued Mann, so he was a member of the camp.

"Just ambushed Mann, the person you killed was called Faraday, and he used to be the middleman we contacted, and then we took the job from Gloria for all kinds of things, and we basically had no contact with him."

"Probably out of competition, Faraday seized the opportunity to get rid of his opponent."

"Not long ago, we just received Faraday's order and came here to hijack the goods, and we just ran into you."

"Moreover, this matter seems to have affected Mr. Tang, and Mann Faraday also has the support of the senior management of Arasaka Company behind him."

David's heart suddenly tightened and he supported Faraday's company executives.

The first thing that came to his mind was the old woman, Susan Abernathy, director of special operations.

There won't be a second person except for her.

The operation was kept strictly confidential, and she was the one who approved it.

The convoy was inexplicably attacked in this desert remote area, and the middleman Faraday arranged for the Mann team to commission, and even the Arasaka elite team was dispatched.

His entire operation was exposed in the eyes of the enemy, but he didn't expect that the last person to attack Arasaka's convoy turned out to be Arasaka's people.

David only felt ironic, he had not understood before, Carter Smith in the company was involved in the company struggle and his whereabouts are unknown, and Kate, the deputy minister, died after being removed.

Now he understands that from the moment he joins the company, everyone is attacking each other, and only the one who lives to the end is qualified to ascend to the throne of power.

Now.

He had a new feeling and new experience of what Tang Yu said and did, and he was like him in factional struggles, openly fighting with Susan and Abernathy's group, and facing life and death danger at all times.

Assassinations, expulsions, seizures of power, planting false accusations, and so on are all indispensable means of struggle to deal with.

David had extreme doubts about himself, feeling that he would never be able to do what Tang Yu did.

He doesn't like such a world of intrigue, there is no trust, no affection, no help, there is just the cruelty and dumping of everything and the winner is king.

Taking a few deep breaths, he filtered out the clutter.

He knew that a product launch conference was being held in the company square, and the person in charge of the preparation was Tang Yu.

He had to intercept the goods before they arrived at the company square, if the goods in the other armored car were an implant similar to the prosthetic King Kong, then there would be a big problem at the press conference, and even Tang Yu would be in danger.

With that in mind.

David Yi's eyes turned, and he quickly sent the situation here to Tang Yu so that he could make a countermeasure.

Company square, the scene of the product launch.

A Arasaka armed floating convoy landed slowly in the air, surrounded by various armed forces.

Tang Yu wears special glasses and prepares to watch the upcoming product launch.

Meredith stood beside him and asked with a light smile, "You guys have made a lot of noise this time, are you sure to calm the scene?" ”

Tang Yu replied indifferently: "It's hard to say, it depends on the other party's means, but if you play too much, you will always burn yourself." ”

Meredith smiled, "I can't keep you, but the people who keep you are still fine." ”

After the floating car came to a steady stop, the door automatically slid open, and a group of samurai bodyguards greeted the surrounding area.

Arasaka Yoshinobu himself walked out of the floating car and immediately became the focus of the audience.

Prince Arasaka arrives in Night City to make his first public appearance, and will be promoting new products that will be released soon.

Lai Xuan was followed by Adam's hammer, and his black mechanical body was like a demon god.

Adam's hammer scarlet prosthetic eye scanned the audience coldly, and his cold gaze seemed to be looking down on a large field of ants.

He carried a silver safe in his hand and followed behind Arasaka Yoshinobu, silent.

The last person to step out of the float is Anderson Herman, who will be the introductory host of the event, promoting the product to everyone present.

Herman's eyes were eager, and he looked around, until he saw Tang Yu's figure, and his heart was a little more steady.

He was a little worried that according to Tang Yu's plan, Adam's hammer would not pinch his head with one palm.

Tang Yu confirms that Arasaka Yorixuan and Adam Hammer have left the Kambi Mansion, and immediately sends a message to V, signaling that she and Jack can take action.

No sooner had the message been sent than he received a message from David.

The unidentified shipment was heading towards the company plaza, and someone was preparing to make a move on Gloria's side.

Tang Yu gently raised his wine glass towards Aunt Mei.

"Then I'm bothering you."

Not tonight!
