Someone came, and Bai Ye suddenly fell into a dangerous situation.

There is only one main entrance to this room, and if you want to leave, you will inevitably be seen by people outside. No matter who the other party is, there will be no good situation.

What should he do?

[Your situation is quite passive at this time, how do you plan to get out of this situation?] 】

[1. Flee immediately and leave through the main entrance. Bet that the other side can't stop you, and they can't see what you look like. 】

[2. Wait for the other party in the hall. And negotiate with him. 】

[3. Hide immediately and wait for the opportunity to act. 】

Bai Ye looked at the three options, the first two were too passive, not his style at all.

The first option is simply betting on the blind and deaf on the other side. If you want to run away from the front and pass by the other party, how can the other party not know what he looks like?

Moreover, the other party will stop him 100 percent. If Bai Ye forcibly wants to leave, there will even be friction between the two.

This option must not be chosen.

In the second case, that's even more silly. No matter what the identity of the other party is, as soon as he comes in and sees that the room is in a mess, and Bai Ye is the only living person in the room, he will definitely think that he is the culprit without thinking.

If it is an acquaintance of the scavenger, then a frontal battle will definitely break out. In fact, Bai Ye is not afraid of this situation, after all, he is confident in his combat effectiveness. And he has his own hole cards that he doesn't use.

I'm just afraid that it's an organization like NCPD. Once you have a conflict with them, it will not be easy to do.

The NCPD has an official status, and if he conflicts with them, no one cares what he fought the scavenger for, and will only think that he is a cyberpsycho, or a serial murderer or something, and wants and fights him.

Of course, Night City doesn't particularly care about this kind of thing, and many famous legends have clashed with them. However, White Nights should try to avoid this as much as possible.

Anyway. Let a sleeping dog lie.

Then there is only one last option, hide in the room first. Wait for the other person to leave, or come in to check, and have a chance to get out of here quickly.

This is basically the only way.

You choose the third option. You close the door to your room, leaving only a hidden gap, waiting for the other person to appear. The data perspective is also opened at the same time. 】

[After the other party entered the room, the footsteps slowed down significantly, and the breathing became heavier. Apparently I didn't expect such a fierce battle and a mess here. 】

[In the perspective of data, you will find that there are several prosthetic bodies on his body: a low-level pain editor, an optical sensor, and a health detector. 】

Seeing these equipment, Bai Ye knew in his heart, this should be a scavenger!

He is the "standard equipment" of a scavenger, and all the scavengers that have come into contact with by White Night in recent times are these prosthetics.

Looking through the crack in the door, Bai Ye saw that it was a man wearing tracksuit and sunglasses. The man was very nervous at this time, and he had already taken out the pistol in his hand and aimed nervously at the air.

White Night could see that there was a tattoo on the back of his hand: a blue glove holding a heart prosthesis.

This image is the symbol of the scavenger!

At this time, Bai Ye breathed a sigh of relief.

This is simply the best situation compared to other situations.

In the case of NCPD, White Night is at risk of being hunted. If it is a member of another gang, White Night may have a feud with other gangs.

But scavengers...... White Nights is dealing with scavengers!

White Night immediately launched a hacking chip, "Rapid Intrusion"!

The rapid invasion made the other party temporarily pause for a moment, as if stunned.

That's enough time!

Bai Ye pushed open the door, and his figure rushed out directly like an arrow from the string. The alloy war knife simply and neatly solved the opponent's life.

The man didn't even make a sound before he collapsed in a pool of blood.

【Ding——】

[You killed a scavenger and got a thousand dollars]

White Night put away his weapon, retrieved his equipment, and left the place as fast as he could.

Before leaving, he didn't forget to close the big iron door intimately. I don't know how long it will take for someone to find out about something in such a remote place?

You left the area. 】

You clear a scavenger's lair and receive an additional $10,000 reward. 】

Bai Ye didn't expect that after cleaning up the scavengers, the system would actually give himself an extra reward.

You go back to your apartment. 】

White Night reviews today's actions. There is basically no place to reveal your identity.

Everything went very smoothly, and he also handled the traces afterwards very cleanly, even if someone found out about it after a while, it was impossible for anyone to contact him.

The last scavengers to appear, who appear to be from other small groups, come over to talk about things or make contact. White Night didn't find any call logs in the room or on them.

The man's small group of scavengers is expected to be vigilant in the coming days. After all, if a member disappears inexplicably, they will definitely be on guard against it.

White Nights has suspended recent plans to deal with the scavengers' lair.

Two nests have been dealt with recently and have attracted considerable attention. His reputation level has also increased. At times like these, it's not a good thing to be too high-profile.

White Night quits the game, transforms into an old man again, and goes to the company.

After his last treatment, he discussed it with Emma. Because time is running out for treatment, he has to be as prepared as possible. If nothing happens today, it should be the countdown to the treatment.

When he came to the company, he had not yet reached the diagnosis and treatment area, and the voice of [Emma] sounded in his head.

"The results of the last inspection are out. It is estimated that the drug treatment has been completely ineffective and you need it. You need to find a new medication. ”

Emma continued, "Are you ready?" Spooky gathering places are very dangerous places, and you must be careful. ”

Bai Ye was slightly taken aback, he was ready, but he didn't expect this day to come so quickly.

He hesitated a little and said, "The strength has improved, I don't know if I can deal with the situation there." ”

He is confident in his fighting ability, but the strange creations are too strange to be guarded against.

[Emma] paused: "How much has the exoskeleton you used in your experiment last time improve your abilities?" If you bring that with you, you might be able to have a higher chance of success. ”

Bai Ye said in his heart: "That exoskeleton is indeed good, but now it is a trial type, and the company can't let me take it out." ”

[Emma] calmly said, "It's okay, I'll make them change their minds." Just wait for my good news. ”

Less than a minute later, Bai Ye received a message from Tang Mingyuan: "Mr. Peter Pan, please come to my office." ”

Bai Ye took the elevator to Tang Mingyuan's room. Tang Mingyuan sat behind his desk, and Bai Ye saw the box on his desk at a glance. That's where the exoskeleton was last time.

Bai Ye suppressed the excitement in his heart and stepped forward: "Mr. Tang, what's the matter with me suddenly?" ”

Tang Mingyuan said with a smile: "[Emma] The artificial intelligence sent me an email, saying that your treatment needs the assistance of an exoskeleton. ”

"For the sake of your health, I'm definitely going to let you use this thing for healing."

Bai Ye suddenly realized that this was the method that [Emma] said. I have to say that she is quite flexible in her thinking.

"How's it going, are the recent treatments doing well?" Tang Mingyuan asked.

"It was a success! I've been living for a long time now, and the results are obvious. Bai Ye said: "Professor Sergei and [Emma] are both quite good experts, and I am simply lucky to have their help. ”

He exchanged a few words with Tang Mingyuan, and Bai Ye took the box containing the exoskeleton and left the office.

As soon as he walked out of the office, Emma's voice sounded in his head: "It's going well, right?" Let's go now. ”

Bai Ye was stunned: "So urgent? I'm still thinking about preparing for today and tomorrow, and I'll leave the day after tomorrow. ”

His preparations in the past few days are mainly that he still needs to enter the Night City to improve his strength. Where did the scavenger get the prosthesis, and a large amount of weapons and equipment were not sold?

He had some doubts in his heart, why was [Emma] in such a hurry to let him go? It's a bit of an abnormality to be so impatient.

The "weird gathering place" is in the same place, and it won't run away on its own long legs. There shouldn't be much difference between walking early and late, right?

He reacted suddenly and helped himself get the exoskeleton equipment, which was also proof of [Emma's] eagerness.

What exactly is she anxious about?

As if sensing Bai Ye's doubts, [Emma] explained, "The time to go to the [Strange Gathering Place] to find medicinal herbs should not be too short. It's even possible to spend a week or two. ”

"It's not a small place there, and if you're unlucky, it may not be so easy to find medicinal herbs."

"Besides, after you find the herbs, you will need to operate on you when you come back. It also takes time. You don't have much time left, and you have to hurry. ”

She was right, and Bai Ye agreed: "Okay, I'll leave in a while." ”

Emma's voice was relieved, "That's good." I will send you the specific information of the [Strange Gathering Place], as well as the information of the drugs that need to be found, in a moment. ”

"Be careful." Emma finally admonished.

Bai Ye nodded, said goodbye to Emma, and left the company.

He didn't leave immediately, and at least he had to say hello to Ilsa, anyway.

As for whether to act with Ilsa, Bai Ye had already thought about it in his heart, and he still decided to act on his own.

Ilsa's specific fighting strength is not clear to herself. Judging by her usual performance, Ilsa should be better at intelligence analysis and processing tasks. Talent is also disguise, not a combat type of person.

According to rumors, many places like [Strange Gathering Places] are very different from ordinary cities. Besides, where there are strange creations, they are full of dangers.

Ilsa is just helping herself to live in Hongcheng, and she has already given herself a lot of help during this time, and she doesn't need to put her in danger, which is not in line with Bai Ye's own philosophy of doing things.

He returned to the apartment. The first thing I checked was the information sent by [Emma].

The content in the information is about the "weird gathering place" and the content of the drugs you are looking for.

[Strange Gathering Place: Blackwater Town.]

A strange town located just outside of Hongcheng, some people have never appeared in it since they strayed into it, and it is said that something strange has happened.

The exact location is unknown. However, it can be determined that the outline is about 130 kilometers west of Hongcheng. The exact entrance is unknown. It is said that there will be a different road every time you enter. I don't know why.

The townspeople in Blackwater look like normal people. It's just that they have strange customs and behaviors, and they can't be seen from the appearance of ordinary people. Only at certain times will an act akin to madness be manifested in action.

As long as you don't provoke them, the general situation will not put you in danger. 】

Bai Ye looked at the introduction of Blackwater Town, and it was similar to what he thought, even the artificial intelligence [Emma] was here, and he didn't know very well. The information that is known is only some information that is not very detailed.

All kinds of things seem to be in the fog, and the words are unknown.

It seems that the specific information needs to be explored by Bai Ye himself.

Next, it's about looking for the drug yourself.

[Blue Flower: A plant that grows under an ancient tree, it is said that only when strange creations appear, you will have the opportunity to see the figure of the Blue Flower.

Blooming only at night, the flowers emit a faint blue glow. This characteristic is so pronounced that it is impossible to confuse it with other flowers. 】

In addition to this brief introduction, there is also a picture with a specific image of the blue flower.

Curiously, the image is not a photograph, but a hand-drawn one. Bai Ye carefully identified it and took all the characteristics of this plant to heart.

After reading the information, Bai Ye opened the box and looked at the exoskeleton in the box. After confirming that there is no problem with the item, it will be placed directly in its status bar.

Bai Ye walked to the living room, and Ilsa was holding a tablet reading materials at this time.

"Ilsa, tell you something."

Bai Ye said to Ilsa seriously. Ilsa looked up after hearing this, and looked at him quietly with sea-blue eyes.

"I'm going to go out for a while, and I guess it's going to be about three days to a week. Go to the weird gathering place and look for medicine to cure my physical condition. ”

Bai Ye finished his purpose in one breath.

After listening to this, Ilsa thought for a while, and said seriously, "Do you need me to go with you?" ”

Her expression was very serious, not like a casual question, but really thinking about it.

Bai Ye shook his head and said, "Thank you for your kindness, this is my own task, I can complete it myself." When I come back, I still need your help. ”

Ilsa nodded, indicating that she understood, hesitated for a moment and said, "Be careful on the road." ”
