At the Jewel Green Club restaurant, the pianist plays soothing music.

Former CIA agent Solomon Leed led dozens of Nether Hounds scattered around the station.

Li Ang enjoyed dinner slowly, accompanied by Song Zhaomei and Han Sen.

"How's the New America talking?"

Han Sen stopped his knife and fork and said, "The mimic masking technology has been obtained, and the rest is still being discussed, but the other party has hinted many times that if we are willing to deal with Arasaka, they will agree to the remaining conditions." ”

Li Ang took a sip of champagne: "It seems that the military science and the new United States are not sincere. ”

Song Zhaomei accosted: "They have always been like this, taking a little advantage, just like treating people as dogs,"

Han Sen nodded in agreement, he and Song Zhaomei were both from the New America, and they had already seen the true faces of the federal government and the military high-level officials.

"Then let them taste the bitterness." Li Ang's finger tapped lightly on the table: "There is a federal border guard on the periphery of Taiping Prefecture, let the ghost dog clean it up." ”

"The reason is the same: to prevent the spread of war, to protect the people of Taiping Prefecture, and to establish a buffer zone."

Military technology dominates almost all of Night City's borders, known as the Badlands. There, they have long since replaced the NCPD as the main law enforcement force.

Han Sen hesitated for a moment and replied, "Okay, I'll arrange it as soon as possible." ”

Song Zhaomei asked: "Isn't this equivalent to a war with military technology?" ”

Li Ang smiled: "After the fight, tell the military department that the Nether Dog can accept the hir, and when they have seen the strength of the Nether Dog, they will agree." ”

"By the way, Arasaka also quotes a good price."

"Whoever pays more, we help whomever we help."

The total number of Nether Dogs is not large, and it is maintained at about 1,000 people all year round, and all of them have been transformed by Li Ang's blood, and their life level is far beyond that of mortals.

All of them are fierce men with infinite strength and copper skin and iron bones, and they dare not say that they have immortal bodies, but the recontinuation of severed limbs is as simple as drinking water, and they are not afraid of death, because after they die, their consciousness will be uploaded to the fungus net.

This system is the equivalent of the Crusaders' kingdom and the Valhalla of Viking warriors.

Besides, Leon can't bring so many people with him when he returns to the main world, and it is more resistant to storage when he becomes a conscious body.

Regarding how the ghost dog should clean up the border guards, how to talk to the two companies afterwards, and leave it to Han Sen to be responsible, there was no need for Li Ang to bother, so he turned to ask about another matter.

"Zhaomi, how far has the matter of the silver hand been handled?"

Song Zhaomei pondered the language for a moment and said, "I have already taken the information back from the black wall, and it has been transmitted to the consciousness of the silver hand, and he needs a certain amount of time to understand and digest it. ”

"At the moment we are looking for the right body for him."

Li Ang thought for a while: "Speed up the progress, solve it within a week, and then send someone to escort him to the territory of the new United States." ”

Johnny Silverhand, it is not an exaggeration to call him a scumbag, there are countless shortcomings on his body, selfishness, naivety, middle two, alcoholism, promiscuity, extreme personality, and IQ is not very high, but it is undeniable that he adheres to his ideals, never backs down, and is a real man of action.

Arasaka Tower said that it would be fried, and the woman said that it would be fried.

He was a veteran, had participated in many wars, had seen how big corporations sucked blood on people, and knew that the world was rotten from the roots, but he didn't know how to change it, and in the end he could only turn my body into flames, trying to wake up the people who had long been numb.

At the cost of his life, he perfectly interprets what the punk spirit is.

Leon was willing to give the loser a chance to see what Silver Hand would do if he had a clear plan of action and knew how to change the world.

The old net outside the black wall is like a ruin, but under the ruins are buried the treasures left by the golden age of mankind, all kinds of ideas, ideas, and the sparks left by our ancestors.

Song Zhaomei brought these things back and handed them to the silver hand.

Even if the Silver Hand still fails, that's okay, he can be an evangelist.

After all, a spark can start a prairie fire.

Arasaka Yori-nobu is changing the world in his own way, and he has also bought time for Silver Hand to develop, and no one knows what kind of fruit the seed will bear in the end, but Leon said that he is very much looking forward to it.

This is his gift to the cyber world.

Leon estimated that he would not have a chance to see the day when the seed would blossom and bear fruit, and hoped that the people of this world could see it.

After chatting with Song Zhaomei about some details, the three of them stopped communicating and enjoyed dinner with peace of mind.

It has been two days since V went into the city to look for Lao Wei, and the reason is that he met Misty, and her wedding to Jack is approaching, and V is pulled to help.

Leon agreed, and said that he would go to the wedding when the time came.

In fact, the current situation in Night City is turbulent, and it is really not a good time to get married, but Misty's belly is getting bigger day by day, and it is really difficult to drag it on. So Jack's mother, Mrs. Wells, set a date, and the wedding took place at the Wolf Bar in Watson.

Panan took Mitch and Scorpion back to the Adcardo camp to pull the entire family onto Leon's thief ship, but it didn't go particularly smoothly due to the stubbornness of the family leader, Thor.

Aveline didn't know how to move Ciri, plus Judy, and the three of them also entered the city, and Leon had told them that the conditions in the Overworld were not as good as here, so they had to indulge in a final pleasure.

Dogtown recently suspended all smuggling business and exchanged a large amount of goods, including real estate, for hard currency such as gold. The news spread to the black market, and many people speculated that Han Sen was about to make a big move.

For a time, there were many spies from various forces in Taiping Prefecture.

A few days later, on an ordinary night, the moon was bright and the stars were thin, and the big move that people had been waiting for finally came.

Hundreds of Nether Hounds, cloaked in the bright moonlight, broke into the border post of military technology.

They did not carry any heavy weapons, but they beat the military science and technology troops armed to the teeth, equipped with all kinds of armored vehicles and high-tech equipment.

Dense gunfire rang out all night, and the sky's blazing fire stained the sky red, and even the city center, which was furthest from the badlands, could smell the smoke coming from outside the city.

In the early hours of the next morning, several heavily guarded border posts were razed to the ground, and the troops stationed there were completely removed, with only a few soldiers escaping alive but suffering great mental trauma.

In these mouths, the Nether Dog has become a canine demon with red eyes, pointed ears, and a mouth full of fangs.

An army of evil servants under the command of the Calamity Dragon.

They are invulnerable, invulnerable, and can be resurrected even if they are beaten to pulp.

Soon after the incident, representatives of Military Science and Technology approached Han Sen, hoping that he could give a reasonable explanation.

As for why he didn't look for Leon, because there was a real chance of death.

After a fierce and friendly meeting, the two sides had a full exchange of views, but the content of the talks was not clear to the people, except that after the talks were concluded, the military science and technology and the new United States never publicly mentioned the border post incident.

It wasn't until a month later that Military Technology and Arasaka completely tore their faces.

The two companies threw a large amount of troops into a full-scale war, and the entire American continent was thrown into chaos.

A Nether Dog suddenly appeared on the frontline battlefield as a mercenary, charging into battle and conquering cities for military technology.

Just when people wondered how Dogtown could be in the same league as the new America.

Another group of Nether Hounds landed on the Arasaka aircraft carrier in the Alaska region of the New United States.

Only then did people suddenly realize that it was eating at both ends, and the plaintiff ate the defendant after eating.

As the war between the two companies intensified, its effects spread to the rest of the world, with international trade blocked, economies spiraling out of control, markets in small countries collapsing, and a large number of illegal groups springing up to commit crimes.

As the war rages hot, cyber surveillance is trying to protect cyberspace. But with databases and servers in all regions of the world ravaged by malicious viruses and illegal programs for no apparent reason, it seems a foregone conclusion that cyberspace will fall apart again.

This eventually led to the countries of the world being drawn into wars, with some governments publicly blaming Military Technology and Arasaka and confiscating the assets of the two companies. Some radical countries simply laid siege to two companies in their own countries, a move that many countries followed.

Under heavy pressure, military science and technology are miserable, and the new United States is also full of chaos.

The Arasaka company is also not much better.,The book is full of complaints in the country.,Protest marches happen from time to time.。

Military Technologies has sent secret representatives on several occasions to talk to the Arasaka Company.

But Arasaka Yoshinobu saw who bit who like a mad dog, and even opened up a second battlefield in Europe.

His goal was to destroy the world and build a new home on the ruins.

While the Americas were devastated by the raging war, Night City became the last place of peace.

Both companies deliberately ignored this place because of Leon's presence.

That's why war-torn people are pouring into Night City, which is already crowded.

The more the world decays, the more Night City prospers.

It's just that this false prosperity won't last long, because Leon is leaving.

Mrs. Wells's Wolf Bar was bustling with activity today, with all the big names on the streets of Heywood coming, and there were so many customers that there was nowhere to stay.

The bartender and kitchen are busy bringing a plethora of Mexican-inspired wines and food to the table.

The war did not affect the joyous atmosphere here, and people gathered in groups to talk and laugh, mostly talking about the same topic.

Mrs. Wells' precious son is getting married.

Soon after, a couple of perfect couples were surrounded by people and walked onto the stage.

Jack, who looked a lot calmer, was wearing a decent black dress and waved to everyone.

The bride, Misty, stood next to her, holding her lover's arm, smiling happily.

Her lower abdomen was slightly raised, her face was devoid of exaggerated smoky makeup, and her figure was obviously much rounder.

Mrs. Wells seemed pleased with her daughter-in-law, clapping her hands and watching them intently.

To her left were the middleman, Father Priest, and the prosthetist Lao Wei, who were chatting in a low voice.

On the right are the leaders of the Valentino gang.

As Night City's largest and most populous gang, the Valentinos rule the predominantly Latino Heywood region and uphold the values of honor, justice, and brotherhood.

Every Heywood kid has been a member of Valentino, and Jack is no exception.

So the Valentino gang regarded him as a home, and even the gang leader who was still in prison did not miss Jack's wedding, and ordered someone to bring a message.

As the speeches of the witnesses ended, the atmosphere of the wedding scene was pushed to a climax.

It's just that today's two protagonists are a little absent-minded and frequently look at the door of the bar.

Fortunately, their expectations were not disappointed, and it didn't take long for the door to be pushed open.

Leon took V's hand and walked in.

The entire bartender was silent for a moment, and everyone's eyes fell on them unconsciously.

Seeing this posture, Li Ang smiled and said to the newcomers on the stage: "We didn't mean to steal the limelight from the two, but everyone also knows that Night City has been too blocked lately. ”

Everyone in the bar burst into laughter, and the slightly tense atmosphere returned to joy.

Then, Leon and V came to the couple and presented the wedding gifts prepared in advance.

A bottle of tequila that has been cellared for many years and a deck of tarot cards used for divination.

The value is not particularly high, but it is enough care.

Misty couldn't wait to lift the hem of her wedding dress and stepped forward to hug the two.

"Thank you so much for coming to Jack's wedding for me, Leon and V!"

Jack stood behind her and giggled vigorously.

If you want to talk about big people, if there is no more famous person than Li Ang today, he can come to the wedding, which makes the Heywood kid get great satisfaction in face.

V was afraid that Misty's movements would be too big and hurt the baby in her stomach, so she hurriedly helped her sit down.

Leon was invited to the position of guest of honor.

Lao Wei was also here, patted him on the shoulder and said, "The bastard boy is deeply hidden! I just told the priest that if I hadn't picked you up, you would have been dismantled by those kidneys, but he didn't believe it, so come and help me prove it! ”

The middleman smiled awkwardly, he didn't believe it, he didn't dare to believe it.

Li Ang replied with a very emignant face: "Lao Wei is right, not only that, I also worked as an apprentice for him for several days, but unfortunately I didn't pay him, so I copied his squid." ”

"you!" Lao Wei scolded with a smile: "Eat eight meals a day, and still want to be paid? ”

The priest was frightened by the prosthetic doctor and hurriedly observed Leon's reaction, and found that he showed no signs of anger, so he put down his hanging heart.

At this time, the leaders of the Valentino gang came to greet each other, and by the way, they expressed their respect and gratitude.

Through the conversation with the priest, it was found that Leon was not the evil dragon that people eat people without spitting out bones, on the contrary, he was quite approachable.

The wedding went very smoothly, and the only fly in the ointment was that the groom was drunk.

However, the bride is already pregnant, and it doesn't matter if there is a final step.

The guests dispersed, and it was time for Leon to take his leave.

"Are you all ready?"

Lao Wei held a cigarette and said, "The equipment in my clinic was emptied by V a few days ago. ”

The prosthetic doctor's tone was a little melancholy, and he couldn't imagine that he would have to leave his hometown and start a new life in a completely unfamiliar place at his age.

At first, Lao Wei didn't want to leave, but he couldn't stand V's persuasion every day, plus Night City is indeed not peaceful now, so it's better to hide somewhere else.

Leon nodded, and then asked V, "How are you doing over there?" ”

The busy girl replied impatiently: "I'm helping Mrs. Wells pack her things, don't rush." ”

"Okay." Leon shut his mouth in a huff.

Jack's family also wants to leave with him, which is of course also V's 'credit'.

If it weren't for the Great Blessing, there was really no such big place, and she would have liked to pack up all the familiar people and things in Night City.

When everything was cleaned up, Li Ang didn't talk nonsense, and sent everyone, including V, into the Great Blessing.

Then he made two phone calls.

Respectively to Arasaka Yoritobu and Johnny Silverhand.

Some of the Nether Dogs had already started a family, and Li Ang did not force these people to follow him, so he handed them over to Lai Xuan and Yinshou.

It can be regarded as a small help to the careers of the two.

No matter how much Leon does, this is their world.

After making the call, Li Ang didn't linger too long, and the whole person disappeared in an instant.

A few minutes later, a group of blue-eyed unknown people broke into the wolf bar, staring at the mess all over the ground, and they all froze in place.

What about people? I didn't see him come out!

Immediately afterwards, the spies in charge of monitoring Dog Town came with the news that the situation was similar to here, and all those who had a relationship with Leon had mysteriously disappeared.

But this also strengthens the idea of streaming AI, and a high-dimensional world must exist.

So the Yeshi Company went underground from then on, established a secret organization, and vowed to find out the high-dimensional creatures that endangered the world and give them the most severe trial!

At the same time, the Great Blessing Within.

The once orderly space is now filled with all sorts of things: equipment, materials, guns, and a host of things unique to the cyber world, and even several floating and fuel vehicles.

When Leon entered, everyone gathered in the round table hall, chattering and imagining the future.

The overall atmosphere is a bit like a spring outing for elementary school students.

"Silence!" Bionic teardrops Bayek reminded the crowd loudly.

His expression was unusually serious, for he regarded himself as a blessed steward, and he did not like these people to stay in his own house.

"Miss Melina, come back and take care of our master, he's made a bunch of bad friends, and he's going to be ruined by these weirdos in fancy clothes!"

No one knew what Bayek was crying out about, but the crowd was silent.

Li Ang nodded to everyone, then walked to the round table and took the list of people handed over by Han Sen.

Each name is marked after it to prove that the person has arrived.

"Saul Bright, aren't you going to come?"

The tribal leader sitting in the corner looked embarrassed, and around him were the Adcardonian gang.

Panan raised his hand like a child and said, "Report!" Thor says that instead of being captured by the terrifying canine demon soldiers, it is better to take the initiative to come to you yourself. ”

The crowd immediately burst into a good-natured laugh, with Mitch and Scorpion laughing the loudest.

Li Ang didn't laugh, but said: "Good birds choose trees to perch on, and they do a good job." ”

Although the combat effectiveness of the Adicado Wanderers is average, their maintenance skills are quite good, and they are considered technical jobs, which are very useful for the development of the valley.

"You're welcome." Saul replied stiffly.

Leon continued to check the list and soon found an unexpected name: "Anders Herman, didn't you go to Tokyo with Lai Xuan?" ”

Arasaka's chief biological engineer immediately stood up: "I think it's more promising to follow you!" ”

Li Ang nodded: "Good vision, sit down." ”

Then he glanced at the crowd and asked, "Where did Ciri go?" ”

Bayek replied, "On Mr. Xiugu's side, something is wrong with her sword. ”

"Oh." Leon put away the list and set his eyes on the psychic who was divining with tarot cards: "Misty, are you okay, do you feel anything uncomfortable?" ”

Misty looked up and said happily, "It's never been so good!" And I just did the math, guess what I drawn? ”

"The King of Wands, Lovers, and the Sun!"

"Looks like we're going to have a good time in the future!"

Li Ang also smiled: "Definitely." ”

"Okay, let's disperse, what do you need and Bayekti, we will need about a week to get to our new home, I wish you all a happy trip!"

The crowd cheered enthusiastically, and everyone had expectations for a better life in their eyes.

Aveline touched Judy's arm: "Idle is idle anyway, why don't you give everyone Mewtwo." ”

This proposal was well received.

Mrs. Wells contributed a great collection of fine wines for everyone to enjoy.

While others were watching the film, Li Ang took out the list of people again, and someone never came to him, and naturally her name was not on the list.

Lucy.

But it's normal to think about it, her lover, friends, everything in the past is buried in that bustling metropolis, with her character, it is impossible to leave these behind and go casually with a stranger.

Leon was thinking about it when V, who was sitting next to him, suddenly grabbed his hand.

"What's wrong?" He asked.

V had a little nervousness on his face: "I'm a little worried, what should I do if the noble lady you said doesn't accept me?" ”

That's right, Leon had already told her about Achyna and the other wings.

At first, V also cried and made trouble, and swore to put down the cruel words, saying that the two of us were completely finished, but it didn't take long for him to cry and come to Li Ang for comfort.

She sometimes thinks that she probably has cyber psychosis, otherwise how could she be reluctant to leave.

From hysteria to calm acceptance, only V himself knows what he has experienced in between.

"Archina won't have a problem, the hardest thing to do is the other one."

Li Ang didn't say the second half of the sentence, because it had little to do with V, it was a problem he needed to solve.

As for the difficult one, of course it was Ashley, who was not that easy to talk to.

But don't worry too much, the hardest thing is that 1 becomes 2, and the 45678 behind it will be much simpler.

"Otherwise, I'll take you to get to know them now."

"Huh?!"

V's face was clear and ignorant, and then he was dragged away by Leon from the Great Blessing.

In fact, Leon can return to the Overworld at any time, and the reason why he told the others that it would take a week was because there weren't that many places to live in the valley, so the first thing he did when he got home was to build a house.

He had entered the copy on the bed in his bedroom at the time, and was naturally in the same position when he returned.

But coincidentally, Bella was there.

"You're back, darling." The sleepy-eyed eldest lady has long been accustomed to Li Ang's elusiveness, happy and happy, and beauty sleep is indispensable for a minute.

The car was familiar with the lover, and the mouth fell asleep again.

But a few seconds later, she suddenly opened her eyes.

The fierce gaze met V's bewildered gaze.

"Why am I not surprised at all, Mr. Leon?"
