Chapter 8 Why the Alarm? It's just a black hole in my hand!
Li Ji didn't know how outrageous his casual mouth was made up by the non-mainstream brain of Three Fingers.
It's just that this young man is sitting on the roof of the building blankly, and he can't help but get a shot of chicken blood.
"There's a lot to do!"
Once again, Gaia's consciousness was used to pull several critically ill patients back from the brink of death, and to assemble relatively intact limbs from the prosthetic parts left behind by the scavenger.
The two gangsters with severed hands and feet were blessed by misfortune, and Li Ji also gained the respectful eyes of a large number of gangsters.
At least the grassroots of these Night Cities are still relatively simple-minded.
All in all, this is a wave of fertilizer from various factors.
But this apartment couldn't stay any longer, and after directing the gang to pack the loot in batches, Li Ji began to think about his next plan.
"To stay, or not to stay?"
Looking at the busy prosthetic gang in front of him, Li Ji made a decision.
"If you fight alone, you can't save the people you want to save!"
The effects of the EMP hadn't gone away, so he had someone call Leah.
"Actually, I've always had a question, you should know what kind of place this is, right? Haven't you talked to David before? ”
Looking at this mother who gave almost everything for David, Li Ji finally couldn't help but ask his doubts.
"I just want my kids to get ahead in the company, and I'm going to keep them out of the house in the dark!"
"Do you think so now?"
“…… Why do you have such faith in David? ”
"David, never alone, you look outside the door, every one of them is called David."
Looking at Leah's blank gaze under the mask, Li Ji smiled and said his purpose:
"I would like to have a place to stay, preferably one that is a little further from the city, but easily accessible. Of course, the territory should be large. ”
"There are a lot of abandoned factories along the roads on the outskirts of the city, and most of them are bankrupt bosses waiting for the bank to buy them, but most of them have been waiting in line for years."
After a little thought, Leah came up with several place names, which were now inhabited by gangs of all sizes.
"Did you use to be a middleman or?"
"Yes, the company's identity gives me access to all aspects of Night City."
Talent! Li Ji sighed, worthy of being a strong woman who almost sent David into the upper circle with one foot.
"Then you must be able to help me name a few mercenaries?"
"Please call me Leah directly, what you said is very simple, as long as you complete a few orders well, there will be a middleman to find you. However, the first order is often the most difficult. ”
Li Ji thought for a while, beckoned to the three fingers who walked down the stairs not far away, and instructed: "If you can move away, move out quickly, look at the prosthetic body that is not bad, first find someone to sell a few pieces on the black market, spend money to find a few vans, we are going to move." ”
"Make room for me again, I'm going to have a cannon fight!"
Then he said to Leah: "Regarding the mercenaries and the new home, please worry more about the past two days, if you need help, you can call Three Fingers." ”
Finally, before the dawn came, Li Ji got into the last van that slowly drove out.
"I hope the gift I left behind will surprise you."
Just as Li Ji and the others were gradually moving away from this apartment, a low-level hacker from Arasaka reverberated strangely from the cyberspace, arousing the vigilance in his heart.
"Could it be that some of the dumbfounded, dumb-eyed hackers are preparing to attack Night City's ICE (firewall that will fight back against location)?"
He didn't even have the idea of mockery, and there have been many fledgling hackers in the past few days, who were blown out of their heads by Arasaka's fierce counterattack after they were eager to try.
"Anyway, this has nothing to do with my work, just report it."
This worker just routinely packaged the abnormal data and uploaded it to the central risk control system, as for the results of the next hacker.
"I'm going to die in a no-man's corner, pitiful."
At the same time, giant companies such as Kangtao Technology, Network Surveillance, and Military Technology, which stand at the top of the cyber world like Arasaka Company, have received abnormal reports from hackers at different times.
Just a few seconds after the hacker submitted the anomaly report, the intelligent system that had been compared with the waveforms several times brazenly sounded the highest-level red alert, waking up countless high-level bosses in Arasaka from their sleep.
"Suspected weapon five activated? What's the situation? Is a new corporate war coming? ”
"Saburo-sama? How did he go online too? What's going on? ”
A few minutes later, unbeknownst to the inhabitants of Night City, countless satellites gathered in the sky above, all anti-aircraft fire was brought online, and the ubiquitous surveillance probes and defensive machine guns in the city were taken over by Arasaka almost instantly.
When the poor Night City Lord was woken up by his assistant, he found that the entire city was already running according to the company's will, so he angrily smashed the phone in his hand.
Black cars full of Arasaka agents pulled out of hidden corners and rushed from all over the place to the same place, the place that had evaporated from the network at some point, the source of all the turmoil tonight.
It was the scavenger stronghold that Li Ji had just left!
At the same time, a simple communication platform encrypted by several of the world's top supercomputers has been built to provide meetings for only a few people.
"Arasaka Company, military technology, for the sudden cyber black hole attack in Night City, can we think that you are trying to provoke a war?"
……
At this time, the big guy who happened at the top of the pyramid was, and Li Ji didn't know it, but he already felt that something was wrong.
From time to time, military drones flew in the air, machine guns on street corners rose abruptly, and all the cameras swept towards residents at almost the same frequency.
Everything proves that what Li Ji feared the most still happened.
"I still underestimated Arasaka's monitoring of the entire society, I didn't expect it to be exposed so soon!"
Looking at the video messages coming from the apartment, there was a steady stream of agents from Arasaka outside the door, cautiously exploring inside.
"I didn't think I would use it, but I still hope that this beautiful fireworks will satisfy you."
After cutting off the connection of the video, Li Ji took out the shabby-shaped remote control button from his arms and pressed it gently.
A loud bang rang out from afar, and the entire apartment was reduced to rubble in the explosion, burying all the agents who entered it.
But that's not all, the electromagnetic pulse carried by the second explosion that followed once again destroyed all electrical systems within a 500-meter radius of the apartment.
The black hole in the cyber network has reappeared.
