Chapter 9 Off Work

It's finally time to get off work.

Yes, even in the cyberpunk world chaebol universe, there is a definition of 'off duty'.

After all, the voluntary work system of five days of paid vacation a year, seven days a week, and twelve hours a day is already stepping on the physiological limits of the labor and social animals.

Although there are also some enterprises and factories that work in two shifts, one shift during the day and one shift at night, of course, this is mainly for the continuous production of equipment without stopping down, but there is no overtime pay.

And if everyone lives in the company, who else will sell the house to? Is the real estate business still going on? And you live in a company, do you pay rent? Work! Give Lao Tzu a job! Who cares if you commute for a few hours, get off work!

So Li Pan's first day of employment ended in such a mess.

Crowded on the subway with a group of social animals, Li Pan, like everyone else, stared at the shadow reflected in the car window.

Of course, other people's prosthetic eyes are full of colors and colors, and they are addicted to watching short videos and playing games on the QVN network. And Li Pan was really in a daze in the mirror.

For a moment, he even wondered if he had crossed over.

If you die in this life, what can you do in the next life? Isn't this some kind of hell of endless overtime...... was so scared all of a sudden......

Li Pan didn't dare to think about it, so he quickly connected to the upper limit and numbed himself with electronic heroin beep.

However, there are so many ways to indulge in the virtual web these days, and with the advancement of technology, you can really travel on the web, and the virtual world has been constructed so that it is almost indistinguishable from the real world.

And virtual streamers, gamers, network artists, all kinds of professions can work online.

And as long as you have the money, get an eco-cabin, or live directly in a hotel-style Internet café, soak your body in a nutrient solution, and someone will take care of your body, literally, becoming an electronic ghost living in the sea of electrons 'permanently'.

In fact, Li Pan was a gamer in his previous life, and he had no parents to control him in this life, so he almost fell to the point of being an electronic ghost.

But QVN is not secure.

Although there is a public security system on the public network that oversees everything, there are always people who build illegal deep-web servers, and the security system can't stop you from doing your own thing.

Maybe as long as you take the wrong step and connect into the trap, you will lose everything, bankruptcy is light, and it is possible to directly become an electronic zombie controlled by humans.

And Li Pan was tricked, when he first crossed into this world, he once wanted to be a game anchor and a professional player in addition to his studies, and it was quite smooth at first, and he made a small hand. But then it was hacked by professional hackers. If it weren't for the fact that he was in the military academy at that time, the other party didn't dare to go too far, but he was afraid that his life would be gone.

But when his passionate game account was stolen, and when he was attacked by a hacker's puppet, he not only broke the link from the public network in an instant, but even directly lost control of his body, unable to see, hear, or touch, as if he was locked in a closed elevator, and the helplessness and despair of falling infinitely really scared him.

Since then, Li Pan has also had a psychological shadow on those large-scale virtual online games, or the entire QVN deep web area. So basically, now it's just a look at public networks and shallow TV programs.

Every time he stared at the countless link codes, he felt that behind the bustling colorful light and shadow, there were malicious hackers, countless pairs of eyes staring at him.

The endless virtual network is like a huge abyss of nothingness, once you fall into it, you will never be able to climb out.

Sometimes even Li Pan doesn't know whether this electronic abyss is more terrifying, or this real hell is more desperate.

He could only flee to the other side when one side was almost unable to hold on, and repeatedly jumped sideways on both sides of the cliff.

And the situation of ordinary people in these years is the same as him. Madness is only a thin line.

"Ahhh——!h "Squeak——!

The sharp sound of brakes woke Li Pan up from the small movie, and a spirit activated the Xingtian battle mode and linked it to the safety network to prevent hacker attacks, and pay attention to the surrounding situation.

It turned out that someone on the platform in front of him had committed suicide by lying on the tracks, and the blood foam gradually came in through the cracks in the doors and windows of the subway car, splashing a group of people pink.

Alas, this unlucky subway, the suburban ring line is a bunch of addicts taking drugs and, and the urban line is committing suicide by jumping off the rails. The ground is always brown, either blood or.

As a result, the subway was forced to temporarily suspend operations, waiting for the maintenance robot to clean out the screwed human bones and internal organs.

Li Pan had no choice but to follow the crowd out and wait first, and found a place to squat down and wipe the blood stains on his leather shoes.

At this time, a warning from the public safety network popped up in front of his eyes.

'Increased regional safety deviation value'

Li Panden became alert and reached out to press the pistol on his waist all night safe.

Safety deviation value, although he hates this troublesome setting very much, but has to admit that sometimes it can save his life.

The security deviation value, as the name suggests, is a security algorithm reference based on the public safety network, which is based on the reference comparison of the monitoring environment of the entire night capital, no, the entire heavens public safety network, enters various violent crimes and risk factors, and sets the benchmark specification value of each area.

For example, in the central area of the city, this safety threshold is very high, and in the suburban garbage dump industrial area, this safety threshold is very low, but in the long run it is generally flat.

However, once there are external security risks within the region, or the original forces leave, resulting in changes in the regional balance, the coefficient will be extremely high, that is, compared with the daily data, the deviation will be extremely high.

To put it simply, there are dangers.

Then Li Pan saw that in the dense crowd of people in the subway station, there were four extremely strong and conspicuous figures, almost all of them were 1.9 to 2 meters tall, and they got off the subway train with their heads down.

Then Li Pan turned his head and saw more than a dozen guys wearing black windbreakers, sunglasses and electronic eyes, all dressed in the smell of company dogs, walking out of the entrances of the subway station, as well as the washroom, and the emergency survival passage.

It's an ambush.

At the same moment, the black man who was the leader of the group of strong men sniffed his nose and hissed and roared!

"Nightcrawler!!"

Then Li Pan saw him take out two submachine guns from under his leather coat,, that's not a smart weapon!

"Dada!"

"Bang bang bang!"

"Ahhh

Alas, a few handfuls, and they started to fight again, it's really endless, this is the daily life of the night capital......

Li Pan hurriedly risked his waist to hide behind a metal trash can. It's a big bang outside! Two groups of people had to shoot at each other, sonic booms, flash bombs, smoke bombs, and random throws.

The hapless office workers screamed and fled in all directions, and after a while, they were swept down by stray bullets one by one, and a large area was lying on the ground, and I don't know how many people died.

Alas, miserable, although those company dogs came to ambush, but people at least use hacker equipment with smart weapons, although ordinary people are inevitably affected by the explosion, but smart bullets are 'long-eyed'. They will try to get out of the way around you.

But those big men used all illegally modified firearms, and the bullets were so powerful that they smashed the subway station to pieces, as if they were forced to be demolished. It looks like tonight's Dead Man's Lotto is going to be super doubled again.

Thinking of this, Li Pan hurriedly added a note, after all, if you want to achieve financial freedom and class promotion in these years, you can probably only buy lottery tickets a little more reliable.

Spent five yuan to buy a lottery ticket and bought a dream, Li Pan hid behind the trash can and waited for these two groups of people to finish.

Don't expect NCPA, the big man just called 'Nightcrawler', this is the direct security force of the Night Group, and the gangsters and agents per capita, otherwise who can do it in the Duxin subway station of the night capital in a grand manner? I probably won't have to wait until the police are done to come in and wash the floor.

And those strong men are quite outrageous, and they are still resisting. If it was an ordinary person, it would have been taken down by the company's hackers, and Li Pan took a look at it and found that this group of people were covered in blood to the smart bullets, and they were still standing, and those smart bullets actually even hit their bones, but they also aroused the ferocity of the other party, howling and raising their guns to shoot back, and even formed a tactical team to shoot in all directions to suppress the fire of the ambushers, trying to retreat to the subway and escape through the underground railway.

If you can't be killed by such a random shot, you can still kill a bloody way, Li Pan can't help but suspect that these people are also pure biochemical transformation people of which family, but it shouldn't be a red dog, after all, if it's a red dog, now the three-headed dog has thrown the thermobaric bomb in.

Just as those strong men suppressed the firepower of the Nightkin and were about to take the opportunity to retreat, a black shadow suddenly burst out from the smoke and dust.

Under Xingtian's dynamic vision of battle, Li Pan barely saw that this was a woman wearing a black leather trench coat, short black hair, and holding two guns...... Nightcrawler.

And unsurprisingly, from the delicate appearance of the other party, the pupils shining with blue light, and the extreme acceleration as if the central nervous system was strengthened, almost as fast as flying over the ground, as well as the title and dress of this nightcrawler, all illustrate an indisputable fact.

These are the specialties of the Night Clan, fighting vampires.

Of course, the people of the Night Clan prefer to call themselves the Blood Clan, and it is said that in their earth, because of a plague, the indigenous population has mutated, so the Night Clan has developed a special Blood Clan Serum and Blood Clan Remains, which have become the group's specialty products.

These bloodlines basically have legendary special crafts, immortality, eternal youth, beauty, taller, faster and stronger, bloodsucking healing, and so on. Even Ye's also gave low-end and cheap products, adding the characteristics of being afraid of sunlight to keep the persona, and saving costs by the way.

So in general, these Nightkin are roughly level 5 and 6 technology products, and their performance is worthy of the reputation of Night Warriors.

At this time, in front of Li Pan's eyes, the female night walker flashed around, as if a butterfly was dancing, dodged the crossfire of several strong men, approached all the way, rushed straight into the crowd, jumped up and locked his neck with his legs, and hit the two strong men with his hands against his head and eyeballs, which only turned the two strong men into blood gourds, and at the same time shuttled through the crowd like a black snake, pulled out the short sword like a long needle on his waist, and inserted another one, this breath was killed by a single person, and only then was the remaining strong man found the opportunity, shot a shot in the body, kicked it, and flew over the top of Li Pan's head, slammed the wall bricks and landed in front of Li Pan.

The two of them glanced at each other, and both shrank their heads behind the trash can.

In the next moment, the only remaining strong man's eyes were bloody, "Whoa——! "Gotta start shooting, and the trash cans are tinkling and sparkling.

"! What are you doing! ”

Li Pan just wanted to pull out a gun to fight back, but he was dragged by the female vampire, snatched his ancestral heirloom all night, and bit the back of his hand to suck blood wildly!

"Nima!"

If it weren't for the stray bullets flying overhead, and the woman threw herself into her arms and locked her waist with her thighs, unable to move, Li Pan really wanted to smoke the melon seeds with big ears.

However, Li Pan also opened his eyes, this vampire was shot in the shoulder with a big hole, but this blood-sucking work, the bullet actually popped out by itself, and the skin and flesh were visibly healed with the naked eye!

It is worthy of the top department of Ye's company......

"Hey, you're not done! It's all fixed enough! Suck Lao Tzu again and turn his face! ”

"Hmm~~~"

As a result, the female vampire didn't have enough mouthfuls, she was still taking one bite after another, and she was so addicted to it that she couldn't help but open her eyes slightly, her bright blue eyes turned up in distraction, and her eyelashes fluttered slightly.

Li Pan twitched her hand twice but couldn't withdraw her hand, and licked the back of her hand two more times, which was a big loss!

"Whoa!"

At this time, the strong man on the other end ran out of bullets, and was beaten by the other nightcrawlers and was covered in blood, and he roared angrily, tearing off his leather coat and his own skin! Transform into a giant beast! Rush into the subway, break through the window and run away into the tracks!

That thing! It's a monster that died at the door of the secret passage!

Li Pan turned his head to look, but he couldn't chase it, so he had to arch his waist and hit the female nightcrawler in his arms twice.

"Hey! Your prey has run away! ”

Only then did the female nightcrawler react, glared at Li Pan fiercely, and then let go of her mouth, and the blood on her lips couldn't be wiped away, and she flew out, as fast as she flew, and rushed into the subway to chase the fleeing monster and disappear.

"! Lao Tzu's gun! ”

When Li Pan turned his head, a group of night walkers had already disappeared into the dim underground railway like a black wind and night shadow.

Alas...... Lao Tzu's ancestral small pistol......

Looking at the moaning wounded and dead bodies on the ground, he was only bitten and surrendered his gun, which is already good.

But after such an episode, the subway couldn't sit down, and Li Pan didn't have the money to take a taxi, so he had to check the map and walk two more stops, and made a big circle before finally returning to the apartment building on the outskirts of the outer ring.

The elevator was still slowly falling down, so Li Pan went to the night snack stall at the door, transferred twenty yuan to the boss, and made a bowl of wonton noodles to eat standing up.

On the left hand side is a snoring drunk, on the right hand side is a little yellow hair with virtual glasses playing electric electricity, and the TV is playing an explosive ball game.

Li Pan watched the game while eating wontons.

Oh, you may not know what an explosive ball is, in simple terms, it is a sport similar to rugby, and there are many variations of various rules, but basically more than two people can play, everyone grabs a ball, and there are no other rules. In addition, the ball is a bomb, and it will explode when the countdown is up, and the player who is not killed or killed, and holds the ball for the longest time, wins the game.

Li Pan also often plays this with the young people in the building, of course, they only play electric shock balls, at most they are electrocuted, and they don't gamble money.

However, in the official game, the second of holding the explosive ball, there are tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of cash, directly transferred to the player's account, beating in front of the eyes, and in the end only the winner can really get the money, because according to the regulations of the Security Bureau, the non-wage nature of large liquidity transfers will be recovered if there is a suspicion of money laundering, but the tax bureau will give priority to deducting non-wage income tax, in other words, others not only can't catch it, but also have to pay taxes, about 30% of the start, As a result, most players are reluctant to let go until they die.

And then they were blown up.

Ding, the elevator arrived.

Li Pan swallowed all the wontons and went home to sleep.
