Chapter 207: The Fall of the Voodoo Gang

As the end credits of the old movie shown on the big screen floated out, Leon retracted his gaze and looked at Moseley, the network supervisor agent who had been squatting next to him for more than half an hour.

Founded in 2013, Cyber Surveillance started as a private cybersecurity company in Europe, but with its excellent technical prowess, it quickly became an international organization sponsored by major corporations.

Its official mission is to protect the network from cybercrime, maintain the security of the network and communications, and is good at protecting data fortresses, hunting down unlicensed AI, eliminating cracking intrusions, removing software threats, and catching troublesome cyber hackers.

Media propaganda often portrays cyber supervisors as guardians of the people, without whom the internet would have fallen apart.

In fact, because of the great power in their hands, the Internet censors are quite arbitrary in defining crimes.

For example, if the entire criminal process is divided into three steps: preparation, execution, and conclusion, then the Cyber Regulatory Commission will arrest the offender who has not yet committed the crime in the first step.

However, although it is somewhat overkill, in general, the network monitoring is a positive organization.

In the already rotten cyber world, it is a clear stream that is not so turbid.

So Li Ang's attitude towards the network supervisor agent in front of him was quite polite: "Let Bridge go, I'll let you go, how about it, it's fair, right?" ”

The frightened Moseley pretended to be calm: "The Voodoo gang sent you here?" They don't follow the rules, and they don't deserve people like you to work for them. them."

Leon opened his mouth to interrupt his clichΓ©: "I know exactly who the Voodoo Gang is, you just need to answer my question." ”

"Okay, okay, I'll let them go." Moseley agreed without much thought.

The reason why he was so happy was because he knew better than anyone how terrible Leon was.

In order to ensure safety, Moseley synchronized his network with the Savage King, and he could see everything the Savage King saw and heard, so he had actually understood Leon's strength.

"But I have to go back to the screening room to do it, where I have my computer."

After listening to the network supervisor's request, Li Ang said to the little brother of the Animal Gang who had been waiting beside him: "Go, help him bring the computer." ”

The younger brother was ordered to return to the screening room to completely eliminate the possibility of Moseley's tricks.

While waiting, Li Ang suddenly said, "You came to Taiping Prefecture this time to destroy the Poseidon Gang's subnet, right?" I can help you, the price is negotiable. ”

"Ahh Moseley opened his mouth in surprise, who the hell are you?

Fortunately, he was also a person who had seen the market, and he quickly regained his composure: "Of course we can't ask for your help, and the price is definitely higher than the voodoo gang's bid." ”

Li Ang couldn't help but smile: "Yes, the Voodoo Gang is willing to take out all the network technology in exchange for their boss's life, what about you?" ”

"Ah!!h Moseley was shocked this time.

A hacker group that takes out all its technology and hands it over to outsiders is no different from a teenage girl who strips herself naked and walks into the men's bath.

"This, I'm afraid."

Li Ang knew that he couldn't be a small network surveillance employee, so he didn't embarrass him too much: "I don't need the latest and most cutting-edge security technology, you just need to sort out a copy of all the technologies that can be disclosed within your authority, this should be no problem, right?" ”

Moseley immediately replied, "No, I'll sort it out and send it to you later." ”

With a bunch of outdated technology and a real legend to help, there's no better deal in the world.

The two reached a consensus, and Li Ang looked at the net supervisor who was still squatting on the ground: "Get up, find a place to sit by yourself." ”

Moseley couldn't wait to get up, hammered his pantothenic thigh, and kept thanking him.

Not long after, the younger brother came back with a computer.

Mosley fights, frees Bridget and sorts out the technical data, and finally makes a chip with a secret door and gives it to Leon: "Connect it to the sea god, and when the time comes, not only the subnet will be breached, but all the voodoo gang brains connected to the subnet will also explode, except for you, of course." ”

Li Ang took the chip and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

The regular army of the network supervisors seems to be stronger than the wild gangs of the voodoo gang.

When it was over, Moseley handed him the chip containing the technical data: "What you want, in addition, I have transferred 100,000 yuan to your account privately, and I can't let you work in vain." ”

The net supervisor said it easily, but in fact it was extremely heart-wrenching, the budget for this mission was only 200,000, and it cost a lot to hire animal gangs.

But this kind of behavior of slapping a swollen face and becoming fat won Li Ang's favor, and he likes this kind of sensible person.

"I admire you Moseley, and if you are in trouble in the future, you can come to me."

"Thank you for your generosity and have a great day." Moseley respectfully sent Leon and the little brother of the animal gang away, he still had something to deal with, and he had to stay here for a while longer.

On the other side, Li Ang came out of the cinema and transferred the money he had just received to the younger brother next to him.

"I don't come to Taiping Prefecture often, you help me watch the point, it's best to take someone to infiltrate Dog Town."

The younger brother instantly realized that his efforts just now had paid off, and he changed from an ordinary gang member to the second-in-command of the gang: "No problem, big brother, wrap it up on me!" ”

After tasting the sweetness, he began to exert his subjective initiative and analyze why the eldest brother wanted to infiltrate Dogtown in order to better carry out the mission.

Suddenly, there was a flash of inspiration.

Angel, the boss of the Animal Gang branch in Dogtown, seems to be good-looking.

Combined with the previous eldest brother's dislike of the savage king ugly, the younger brother felt that he seemed to have realized something.

When the eldest brother comes to Taiping Prefecture next time, he will definitely surprise him!

Li Ang glanced at the little brother next to him with a strange expression: "Why are you laughing so disgustingly?" ”

The younger brother was tight-lipped and tight-lipped as a bottle: "My wife gave birth." ”

"Congratulations." Li Ang skipped the topic: "The Voodoo Gang should be chaotic for a while, you guys don't care, just concentrate on Dogtown." ”

After explaining, he left the Great Empire Mall and went to the voodoo gang's lair.

Arranging for animals to help in Dog Town is an idle move, and it is best to use it, and it is not a loss if you don't use it.

Calculate the time, and the plot of the DLC is about to begin.

The nest of the Voodoo gang is in the Barty Hotel in the center of Taiping Prefecture, and because V was notified on Leon Road, as soon as he arrived at the place, he saw Aveline answering at the door.

"How's it going?" He asked as he got out of the car.

"Judy verifies the information, and V accompanies her." Aveline paused, "Plasid seems to be deliberately stalling for time, and he didn't hand over his things until he heard that you were coming." ”

Li Ang smiled after hearing this: "It's really not easy for him to live until now." ”

After that, he took out the Relic chip and the network supervisor chip: "Give you a chance to take revenge." ”

Aveline didn't say a word and inserted all the chips into her brain: "What are you going to do after that?" ”

"After that. Just wait to see the show. Li Ang strode into the hotel.

The Voodoo boys had been informed in advance, so no one dared to trouble the two of them, and walked through the spontaneous Haitian bazaar and went upstairs into a server-room-like area, which was filled with simple Internet access warehouses and various equipment and wiring.

As soon as the two entered, a black woman immediately greeted them: "Hello, Mr. Leon, I'm Maman Bridget, thank you for your help, we will remember it." ”

Leon ignored her, first looked at Judy, who was busy with work, and V, who was guarding next to him, and then locked his eyes on the second-in-command hiding in the corner.

Bridget hurriedly explained, "Sir, Plashid him."

Li Ang didn't listen to her explanation at all: "You do it yourself, or I'll help you." ”

Bridget looked unhappy: "Don't go too far, we don't want to provoke you, but it doesn't mean that you can insult us unscrupulously!" ”

As soon as these words came out, several Voodoo Gang brothers in the computer room suddenly became agitated.

V, who was not far away, sighed helplessly when he saw this, and said to Judy, "Stop first, and find an opportunity to take Aveline out of here later." ”

Judy also sensed that the atmosphere was wrong, and hurriedly stood with her friends.

Seeing that the smell of gunpowder was getting stronger and stronger, Leon said unhurriedly: "Johnny Silverhand's personality data is here. ”

Bridget's expression was stagnant, and her breathing was a little disordered.

She hired Aveline to steal the chip for Johnny Silverhand.

Hopefully, through Johnny, the most powerful being on the other side of the black wall will be brought out: Ott Cunningham.

And if you want to know who Ott is, you must first understand what a black wall is.

About 70 years ago, governments and enterprises around the world digitally stored all human data into the network in order to save public resources, and adopted various strict regulations to ensure their security.

After decades of evolution, the world has become so accustomed to the internet that everything is based on it.

However, one day in 2020, the world's Internet was invaded by several viruses at the same time, and the whole world was quickly paralyzed, and the whole world fell into chaos, a large amount of data was lost, countless governments were shut down, tens of millions of enterprises went bankrupt, and the golden age of mankind came to an end.

Later generations named this event the 'Great Collapse' and the fragmented World Internet as the 'Old Web'.

When the incident subsided, humanity began to rebuild a new world Internet.

The European Union was the first to bring all of the world's top hackers under its umbrella to form a cybersecurity organization: Cyber Surveillance.

Cyber monitors have found that because the Great Collapse occurred during the corporate war, countless highly intelligent war AIs escaped human control and flowed into the broken old web.

These AIs are tricky, and conservatively estimated to take hundreds of years to track down and clean them down.

In desperation, the network supervisor used the new network security protocol to build a high wall in the network time, and the rebuilt new network could only develop within the wall to avoid being harmed by the flowing AI.

This virtual wall is known to hackers as the black wall.

Although governments and companies have unified their claims that the black wall is very strong, the vast majority of cyber hackers who know the truth do not agree with it, and have a negative view of the outcome of human confrontation against AI after the black wall collapses.

Among them, the Voodoo gang is particularly strong.

Bridget often says, "When change comes, I want us to be winners."

So adhering to the simple concept of 'join if you can't beat it', she led the voodoo gang to go the opposite way, digging out hollow thoughts to make a big hole in the black wall, and get in touch with the wandering AI outside the wall.

intends to take refuge in AI when the black wall is breached.

In short: rape.

And the most likely of all the AIs outside the wall to accept the Voodoo Gang is the aforementioned Ultra Cunningham.

This person used to be one of Night City's best hackers, Johnny's ex-girlfriend, who was hunted down by the Arasaka Corporation due to some unspeakable secrets, and was forced to abandon her body and flee to the other side of the black wall in the form of a consciousness. And for some special reasons, the consciousness has changed, and it has become the most powerful flowing AI outside the wall.

Ex-boyfriend Johnny is the last faint connection between Ultra and his former human self.

That's why the Voodoo Gang chose to contact Aveline and steal the chip, which led to a series of subsequent events.

"Mr. Leon, do you mean you're willing to give us the chip?"

When Brigitte heard Johnny's news, she immediately changed her face, and her tone was a little more polite than just now.

Leon smiled but said nothing.

His meaning is very clear, if you want chips, you must first take some sincerity.

Just as Bridget was struggling with whether to sacrifice her second-in-command, a gunshot rang out from the corner, followed by the muffled sound of a corpse falling to the ground.

For the future of the gang, Plasid chose to cut himself off.

The heavy smell of blood instantly spread, and the hearts of the Voodoo Gang were clouded with a layer of haze.

Seeing this, Li Ang sneered: "This kind of death is cheap for you." ”

"V, go see if the person is dead, if not, make up a few more shots."

Several Voodoo gang boys were indignant when they heard this, their eyes were full of anger, and they stood in front of Plasid's corpse and didn't want V to pass.

"What do you want to do, rebel!"

Bridget yelled at her men and took them to the corpse herself.

Ms. V chose the simplest method of examination, and fired several shots at the corpse, knocking the second-in-command head to pieces.

She had already seen Plaside unhappy.

Grinding and chirping, mother-in-law and mother-in-law, in order to delay time, the small movements have not been broken.

Bridget on the side saw her eyelids jumping, but she couldn't get angry, she could only endure it, and under the gunfire, her facial features looked more and more gloomy.

It wasn't until the overjoyed V nodded at Li Ang that she immediately spoke: "The person is dead, can you give us the chip." ”

Leon looked quite generous: "It's easy to say, Aveline." ”

Wherever things start, they end.

Aveline, who heard the call, walked up to him, looking nervous, or rather excited.

Li Ang was unusual, and kindly hugged the shoulders of the sex couple: "I can't give you the chip, but I can allow you to access the chip and get the data you want." ”

Bridget frowned, which was a little different from what she thought, "You seem to know us well. ”

Leon calmly replied, "I just know what you want." The chip is in Aveline's head, and I don't agree to look at you. ”

Brigitte hesitated and replied, "Okay, follow me, let's go to the secret room." ”

"It's just you and her, and the other two are waiting here."

Leon simply asks V to take Judy away first, while he and Aveline go with Bridget.

The Voodoo Gang is located underground, part of the Intercontinental Maglev Tunnel, once connected to the world, but was abandoned after the Great Collapse, just like the Internet.

The furnishings inside are basically the same as the computer room, and all kinds of network equipment and lines are a little larger.

Bridget told her men in Haitian to turn on the device, then turned to Leon and said:

"She'll go into our data fortress, which is the subnet, and she'll be overseen by us."

"Then we'll guide her into cyberspace, which is the best place for the consciousness to interact with the network."

"There, we're going to take a part of Johnny's memory."

"The whole process is not too long, and it does not cause damage to the human body."

With that, she led the two to a bathtub filled with ice.

"Come in, Miss Sex Doll."

When consciousness is connected to cyberspace, the body will heat up like a chassis, and it must be cooled down by physical methods, otherwise the brain will burn out.

Aveline was a little scared, and subconsciously looked at the man next to her.

Li Ang soothed, "The last step." ”

Aveline heard this, and did not hesitate to lie down in the cold and biting bathtub.

Bridget immediately called for someone to connect the neural processor to her brain, and then went to lie down in the adjacent access pod.

An advanced hacker like her usually has a special cooling suit and doesn't need to use ice cubes.

Leon hadn't seen anything like Cyberspace, but he knew that the end of the Voodoo Gang was coming.

When Aveline's consciousness is connected to the Voodoo gang's subnet, Bridget discovers that Johnny's consciousness is not in the chip at all.

But when she realized that something was wrong, it was too late, and the cyber surveillance attack came as scheduled.

The dim maglev tunnel sounded countless piercing sirens in an instant, brilliant sparks splashed everywhere, and the Voodoo Gang brothers fell down one by one with their heads covered in pain, lying in the network access warehouse, Bridget herself kept convulsing.

After looking around to make sure there was no one alive, Leon pulled the wiring from Aveline's brain and carried her on his shoulder as he had done last time.

Finally, he slowly walked out of the voodoo gang's lair.
