"Good morning, Night City! Yesterday's Dead Man's Lotto was only 12 full, and the Ash Company's bulletproof armor has seriously disrupted the results of the Dead Man's Lotto, and I'm afraid some people can't bear it anymore. Santo Domingo's power grid was attacked again, thanks to cyber surveillance, which prevented cyber hackers. The trauma team on Westbrook collects the bodies of cyberpsychotics on the streets, and now excellent armor has become the standard for the people of Night City to go out. As for Taipingzhou, the Ash Company announced that it would carry out a large-scale raid on the Taipingzhou area, and it seems that the company dog wants to wipe out the voodoo gang. I'm your iron buddy Stan, come with me and start a new day in Night City."

Listening to the radio on the side of the road, Karen Val asked with some puzzlement: "Why do we want to establish some ash company, with our existing strength, we can completely use force to directly subjugate this planet." ”

"It's different, Karen, I want a casting world that is entirely for the Expeditionary Force and not a wasteland full of rebellion. To make the world work for us is to cut the flesh on those companies. Do you believe that the company will voluntarily give up its interests? ”

Thinking about what she saw in the report, Karen said, "Of course not, the report says that the company even started a world war for profit. I'm afraid they won't be caught on their laurels. ”

"That's why I carried out the infiltration, there are no foreign enemies like BETA, they are destined to confront us, and the technological level of this world is not comparable to the coalition government, a large number of robot troops and air forces will drag us to death." Horus said.

At this time, a heavy floating car quickly approached the abandoned town where Horus and the others were, and the door slowly opened as the floating car landed.

The door is opened by Zinon, a sergeant from the Iron Warriors, who was tasked with coming into this world a few years ago as the head of security for Ash Inc.

"Lord Horus, Sage Cleixis is waiting for you at the Taiping Continent Building, and the float will take us there."

Horus nodded, and boarded the float with the company commanders, and when Horus stepped on the float, the float sank significantly, and then the engine continued to increase until it successfully took off.

As the float continued to rise, Horus walked over to the hatch and grabbed the handrail, looking down at Night City from the air.

The most conspicuous feature in this steel forest is the Arasaka Tower, which is a symbol of the ruling power of the Arasaka Corporation in Night City, but it will not be long before the tower collapses. Horus will overthrow the rule of the planet with his own hands and establish a new order.

Although everything in front of us seems to be in order and looks like an advanced modern metropolis, this is only the appearance, and the evil is buried deep in the city, with open and secret fights between companies, gang fires, murder and robbery, and organ trading. The corruption of crime corrupts everyone in the city.

！

"It's like a weakened Nostramo." Horus muttered, turned to Zinon, and asked, "Sergeant, what do you think of this city?" ”

"This is a city where there is no hope, my lord," replied Qi Nong, "there is no hope here, the people at the bottom use their lives as bargaining chips to survive, the people at the middle level are squeezed by the top until they lose their value, and the people at the top will die without a place to be buried if they are intrigued and negligent." ”

Hearing Zinon's description, Horus felt more and more about the squalor of the city. And the main culprit of the filth is the company. But if you want to deal with the company, you have to wait until you get down to business, which is why Horus is here.

Even by the most lenient imperial standards, the world is full of heresy. First of all, the rebel artificial intelligence hiding in the desert, the scars of the Iron Man Rebellion still affect the human empire to this day, so Horus will never tolerate those abominable intelligent beings, as long as the arrangement is completed, Horus will wipe them out.

But now, he needs to be patient, and many people in Night City are eyeliners and puppets who have been brainwashed by artificial intelligence. These people are also an obstacle for Horus to interfere with Night City.

The float finally landed on the tallest building in Taiping Chau, the headquarters of the Ash Corporation, which had been established since the Expeditionary Force sent the first infiltrators to the cyberpunk world ten years ago.

As the Expeditionary Force became more staffed, and even the Expeditionary Force's Mechists sent technicians to support it, the Ash Corporation grew into a large corporation in this world. Although it is not as old as Arasaka and military technology, it is also a rising star.

On the tarmac, Horus is greeted by Father Mechanic Sintra, who is also the technical director of the Ash Company.

"Welcome, Lord Primordial, we're ready to take on your mission." Father Sintra reads his welcome speech.

"Well, priest, I want to know how your research on abominable intelligence is doing." Horus asked.

When it comes to abomination intelligence, Father Sintra is very energetic, "The abomination intelligence of this world is simply much worse than that of the iron man during the Iron Man Rebellion, as long as the network node is found, the use of the waste code virus is enough to make them die." ”

"It's as simple as that?" Horus was clearly not convinced.

"Of course, it's that simple, these abomination intelligences are not enough to be called abomination intelligence, their indicators are too low. But there's one individual that's very interesting. ”

"Who?"

"Ott Cunningham, she seems to be a half-human, half-AI data body based on a human-uploaded consciousness. This is the first time I've seen this strange aggregate, and it's a good place to study. At the mention of this, Father Sintra became very active and more human, rather than thinking of him as a real machine.

"I don't care what you do with this Ultra, I just want to know if those abomination intelligences have any plans to manipulate humans." Horus didn't feel strange about Sintra's behavior, the oil guy was always like this, and it was not the normal oil guy to be crazy.

"Yes, my lord, the existence of Mr. Blue-Eyed is very likely to be one of the masterminds behind the human society, and there are many brainwashed puppets in the City Hall of Night City. In addition, the Otter seems to have moved. Sintra called up two names and the relevant data.

After a while, Horus said, "Let the battle squad prepare for action, can you guarantee that the action will not startle the snake?" ”

"Under the guidance of the Sage of Clecis, it was a breeze for us to shield these intelligences. It won't be detected when you act. ”

"Good." Horus nodded in satisfaction. Then he said to the liaison officer next to him, "It's time for the Death Eagle to send out a combat team." ”
