Chapter 101: Erjin Civic Center

"Lao Wei, how are you doing?"

"What do you mean downtown? It's scary, indeed. ”

"That's right, I want to buy a batch of equipment, mainly biosemiconductors and bioconductors for powering prostheses, and I'll send you a list of models."

"Uh, we'll transfer you when the money matter is settled."

"Then let's do it first, thank you Lao Wei."

The repainted black-and-red-striped Mackinou re-emerged on the edge of the Civic Center, and as Lille had hoped, the lockdown order came like a constipated patient.

There is still half an hour before the meeting time.

The remote backdoor that Lille had placed in the Civic Center node had been cleared, and it was clear that the hackers on the other side weren't eating their jobs.

However, when they wanted to trace the source, they ran into great trouble, and they could no longer track Lille on the cyber network.

In the car, V hugged the cat and asked, "Did you call Lao Wei?" And what to buy? ”

Lille explained: "This sneak attack by biotech agents exposed our problems – a strong frontal attack, but a lack of special equipment.

Is that agent powerful? Seriously, although he is backed by a super enterprise, his equipment may not be as valuable as ours.

If he fights head-on, his combat power is really not strong.

But a boutique optical camouflage can implement a well-thought-out plan, with the individual as the fulcrum, to pry the situation around. ”

This is also the core business ability of information workers such as spies and agents.

"Makes sense - so we have one too?"

"We can't fit it - optical camouflage and subcutaneous armor are very conflicting, and since you've chosen subcutaneous armor that's more useful on frontal battlefields, you can't fit it."

Jack and V's subcutaneous armor covers a wide area, and if you continue to add this prosthesis to your skin, there will be a high probability of malfunction and loss of control.

That's the benefit of having a prosthetic doctor on the team, and Lille won't let them blindly pretend to be prosthetics.

"I want to make a new piece of equipment, but it's just an idea at the moment, and I'm still refining the design. ”

As he spoke, Lille opened his system panel.

【Interdimensional World Status】

[In another world, Skye has helped Aiden Pierce access the core of the mystery and has been hunted down by the Chicago gangs]

[Skye and Aiden used ctOS to create a blackout in the main city of Chicago, completely hiding the traces and anti-tracking the boss of the Chicago gang]

[Victory is within reach]

[Skye has uploaded the relevant data of the power outage in the server, you can check the relevant information.] 】

[ctOS development progress: 70%]

[Current cross-dimensional data channel openness: 70%]

The blackout, the ultimate killer against cyber networks.

A large-scale power outage will cause irreversible damage to the server, but unfortunately it is too difficult to execute.

After all, 99.9% of the world's critical facilities and equipment will have backup power solutions, so to trigger a major power outage, it is not possible to complete the activity on the network alone.

However, the development of ctOS is progressing quite well, and the 500 technology points are not in vain - so that Lille can experiment with the next idea.

While there is still a gap between the efficiency of computers in 2011 and 2076, this gap can be filled by quantity – this is a computing gap after all.

The smallest military ICE server could be shrunk enough to fit in the trunk of a car, and the computers in 2011 may not be high, but Lille could use an entire warehouse of computers in tandem.

The traffic obtained by 70% of the data channel openness can almost be used to transmit real-time fast cracking, and the computing part of the fast cracking is placed on a server in another world.

It may be slower, but it's better to be safe - the computer burns anyway, and the military-grade ICE tracker can't track the location and time of the burned server.

You've found Skye. 】

[Lille: Has the XMSC chip arrived?] 】

[Skye: It's here, the assembled computer is next to it, and the system is installed as you said, but what is this purely computing computer used for?] 】

[Lille: I have my own tricks, you will be in the machine room with a fire extinguisher for a while, and if it catches fire, you will spray it. 】

[Skye: Isn't it, boss, you're going to set fire to your own house?] 】

[Lille: Don't talk so much nonsense, let you spray you, you will spray, it will be counted as a performance bonus. 】

Skye: Okay boss. 】

Once that was done, Lille had to find Dr. Connors.

[You choose to speak with Dr. Connors by phone]

[Lille: Doctor, I remember you said that the Osborne Group has obtained a batch of genetically modified spiders with excellent traits, can you make a batch of similar spiders?] 】

[Dr. Connors: Theoretically, the decay rate algorithm has been validated on spiders, so it's not difficult to implement – it's not difficult for me.] 】

[Dr. Connors: But the Osborne Group has patents in this area, so. 】

[Lille: I need to validate the decay algorithm now, can you breed one of these spiders now?] 】

[Dr. Connors: Do you want to re-validate the one-sided decay algorithm from multiple mature individuals?] I've tried it and that's how it is]

[Lille: No, I have other uses, you can ask Matt to transfer money from the company, and some deposits, please hurry. 】

[Dr. Connors: Okay. But it's just that, and if large-scale cultivation involves patent issues, I don't want to be caught by the Osborne Group for pigtails. 】

[Lille: Thank you, Doctor, you have to hurry. 】

After finishing the business over there, Lille went back here and called David and Lucy again.

Correspondence: Lucy

Tick Tick --

Lille: "There's a job, you go to the station center of the Civic Center subway station and wait, I'll give you a signal, and you can go in and hack the equipment inside." ”

Lucy: "Hack the subway?" What are you planning again, this kind of work is simply looking for death."

Lille: "10,000 euros, the frontal battlefield will attract a lot of attention, you just provide me with the access line, and I have a data barrier to cover for you." ”

Lucy: "I'm on the subway right now, with David, who are you going to fight against this time?" Battlefield? Are you going to have a hard deal with the company? ”

Lille: "You'd better not know so much, give me the right word, do it or not." ”

Lucy: "I can't."

Lille: "Fifteen thousand, if you don't pull it down, I'll find another hacker." ”

Lucy: "Okay, but I'm not going to get into a conflict with anyone, I'll run away if it's not right." ”

Lille: "You think I'll agree?" If you run away when you see one or two people, I'm sure you'll never be able to get around Night City again - I'll get you out even if you hide on the moon. ”

Lucy: "The tone is not small, I won't do it if there are more than two people, 20,000 euros, a fixed price." ”

Lille: "Deal, get in place." ”

Hanging up Lucy's side, Lille receives another call from Cheson.

Drip--

Cheson: "Boss, everything is in the pick-up point, that rock boy Dainol's point, I'll send you the location, it cost us a lot of money." ”

Chesson: "But what are you doing here?" So many weapons have been found by the NCPD, and I am afraid that it will inevitably be checked. ”

Lille: "Don't worry so much, just get the stuff when it arrives, let your brother be honest lately, don't take the lead if it's okay, and then there will be a chance to take the lead." ”

Chesson: "I thought you weren't going to take him to play, okay, I'll help you get it on." ”

The car pulls into a shadowy corner of the civic center β€” under a pedestrian bridge, where staircases and tall buildings enclose a no-man's land.

The so-called pick-up point is a machine disguised as a vending machine.

Jack and V took out two heavy boxes, packaged as carbonated drink boxes, and they didn't know that they thought the three big men had bought two drinks.

V flipped the box: "What's inside?" So heavy. ”

"You'll know when you get in the car."

The three of them carried their things into the car, and under their curious gaze, Lille opened the box.

One of the boxes was full of bullets and grenades, and the other was an unopened one. Rocket launchers, popularly known as RPGs.

Lille casually grabbed a magazine from it - this is the first batch of smart weapon bullets that Chessen had just produced.

Because it is not a special model for Yinglong, the probability of triggering the electromagnetic pulse will be much smaller, but it is better than the volume.

V and Jack turned their heads together and looked at Lille:

"I'll go, are you really playing?"

"The shipping cost 20,000 yuan, of course it's true."

Lille put together the RPG in bulk in the box again.

"Heavy firepower is a must – the NCPD is about to complete a full lockdown, and it's funny to drive and not get blocked out of the Civic Center."

The car started again and crossed the street as if nothing had happened.

It wasn't until the cars entered the Civic Center area that the three saw the NCPD's support police vehicles walking to the edge of the area one after another with blockade equipment to complete the full blockade.

This made V a little curious: "There was such a big thing yesterday, and they are only now starting to implement a full lockdown?" ”

Miraculously, the NCPD's lockdown order came much slower, and it wasn't until the Lille trio drove into the civic center that the regional blockade line was raised.

"Actually, I think the NCPD is just for show - they didn't dare to block it at the first time, and now they know that it's useless."

As for why this is the case, there are many possibilities.

After all, the lockdown will have a big impact on the economy, and it will also cause a bad living experience for the wealthy in the city center.

There is no need to take care of a shootout in a poor place, and if something happens in a rich place, you have to take care of the psychology of the rich, and the blockade order must be issued from above.

As for the above, I have to communicate with all parties, and this back and forth is a lot slower.

However, the NCPD is slow, but the company's own security forces are not.

There were more company soldiers on the street, and if the three of them chose to approach the company square, they would only see more company soldiers surrounding the building.

In the end - just let McKinac go, as long as the people in the subway are killed, Coch's purge and dump plan is still a success.

So the blockade is really just that the military department cares a lot and focuses on the vicinity of the subway station, and the NCPD is just putting on a show.

Could it be that the Mackinac will come back to die?

Lille's phone rang.

Caller: Mann.

Mann: "Burger King? You seem to be right, the subway is full of people with military technology, they really want to fire here? ”

Lille: "Nonsense, let the protection target hide on his own, wear a mask when he deserves it!" Don't show your head! ”

Lille: "See Morton and Mendoza?" ”

Mann: "See we're going over?" ”

Lille: "You don't have to go over, let them hide on their own." ”

Lille: "I'll give you a few options: the military department will probably see you in a while, and you can choose to wait for someone to come before shooting." ”

Lille: "Or just shoot them by surprise - as soon as you fire, I'll attack from the outside." ”

Lille: "By the way, let your hackers open up the team channel, and I'll take you to my side of the data barrier, otherwise military technology will chase you to the ends of the earth." ”

Yes?

Mann, who had just gotten off the subway, looked at the military soldiers standing at the entrance of the subway and the people coming and going, and suddenly felt that life was full of confusion.

Clearing the subway?

The sound of the subway echoed in Mann's ears:

"Dear passengers, due to the sudden terrorist attack in the Civic Center yesterday, the Civic Center will implement a district-wide lockdown, please pass through the security checkpoint in an orderly manner.

This regional blockade is partly contracted by the Military Technology International Armaments Company, choose Military Technology, choose your victory. ”

The subway stopped operating, and the flow of people began to walk towards the subway entrance-

After a while, the subway will be empty.

And then if things are like Burger King says, military technology will find them, find Murphy, find Mendoza and Morton on the other side of the subway at this moment.

And then

That's the end of it.

Doleo, the sturdy woman next to Mann, froze at Mann and touched him with her elbow.

"Mann? What's wrong? ”

The rest of the teammates also looked at each other, showing puzzled expressions.

Mann swallowed.

"Qi Wei, open the team signal to a guy called Burger King."

"The King of Hamburg buys and sells stupid bigwigs? Is that the person? What's going on? ”

"Yes - prepare for a firefight."

"Huh? Crossfire? The short, grumpy Rebecca made a strange voice inexplicably, "What are you talking about, Mann, who are you fighting against?" ”

Military technology.
