Chapter 384: Kaniek Rothwald

"How did you find out about Woolley Crowley?"

The news broadcast the final fate of this mercenary.

WNS directly gave a close-up: a mosaic full of screens.

Lille didn't know what level of armor Hot had used for Woo, but he knew that Kaniek's punch of justice was not small.

When a blunt object strikes the skull, even if the head is not blown, the force of the impact is transmitted to the soft tissues such as brain cells and blood vessels.

Many people seem to have no problem after being hit by a blunt object, but in fact, the death period is approaching, so it is actually quite difficult to protect against such a blunt blow.

Woolley's skull was not only slightly opened, but he was even able to continue fighting, which showed the strength of the one-piece bone in his body.

But it didn't mean much in front of heavy machine guns and missiles, and he wasn't facing one or two people or mechs.

Seeing this, Kaniek lost his mind slightly, and then returned to his conversation with Lille.

"I was the one who carried him on the stretcher, and I took over his prosthetic system during first aid, and I knew he was working for Hort.

I saw on TV that the municipality is going to have a meeting today, so I think Hoult will definitely hang out with the people of Arasaka when it's over."

Lille shook his head: "But he doesn't have to go to the Arasaka Seaside, he can go to the Kambi Mansion." ”

"They won't go, Woolley is a shady dog, and Holt knows he's going to go crazy sooner or later, and if it's at the Kambi Mansion, the paparazzi will find out about their meeting.

He would definitely choose to meet him quietly on the road or somewhere.

As long as I grab the float car, the initiative is in my hands."

Lille is noncommittal, and this reason is not sufficient.

But judging from the analysis of the little octopus, and the state of Kaniek biting to death after saying this, he thought so.

The plan is very flawed, but it does seem like what cyberpsychotics do: grasp a little hope and then carry it out paranoidly.

Lille continued to ask, "Do you know what Woolley and the mercenaries before him clashed for? ”

By the time Woolley pulled out the automatic grenade launcher and opened fire, Lille had already cracked the ICE in his prosthetic system.

This is actually a very appalling thing, because the ICE used by Woolley is a Arasaka military-grade device.

It's not that it can't be brute-forced, but the risk is high, and even if the terrorist mobile team comes, it will take at least ten or twenty seconds.

Lille can do this completely because of the powerful computing power of the other world, as well as the brain-burning in the physical sense-

The lizard medicine has been halfway through, and these amounts are used for a month.

The acceleration of Silwestein, which can directly load the Ihara Prague algorithm, and the huge server computing power, has completed this seemingly inconspicuous feat.

After breaking the ice and connecting to Woolley's prosthetic system, Lille quickly caused Woolley's arm to malfunction, which prevented their side from being bombed.

But there wasn't much time left for him to continue digging into the data in Woolley's head.

The effectiveness of the intelligence can only be determined by comparing multiple parties in this way.

Kaniek shook his head: "I only know that there is a special injured person at the scene, the director of the deputy mayor's office of the city of Night. ”

"Still alive?"

"I don't know, I'm not from the medical department, I'm only responsible for getting people out."

"Can you provide a list of the deceased at that time?"

"Yes." Kaniek nodded, "I have a habit of bandaging even if a wounded person who is not a member is found on the spot. ”

After saying that, his mood became low.

Apparently it was a habit that his girlfriend had left him.

In fact, the trauma team is no longer precluded from providing humanitarian assistance to other wounded people on the ground, but it is not mandatory for operators.

Therefore, the trauma team with this habit has probably not been crushed by the pressure of the company's work, and firmly believes that it is a medical worker who saves lives and helps the wounded.

It's just that in Night City, the injured are sometimes murderers, and the only way to call in the trauma team is money.

Kaniek picked up the tablet he had prepared for him from his side - his prosthetic system was already difficult to use and could only transmit information in the traditional way.

After the name was written, he looked at Lille again:

"Anything else?"

Kaniek didn't have much else to offer, so Lille was waiting for the baby octopus to finish analyzing and collecting data.

[Little Octopus: Big brother, it's done. 】

[Little Octopus: There's something about this dude, I now know why this Sylvestan will increase its effectiveness when cyber psychosis is ongoing.] 】

[Little Octopus: Its hardware supports very high-power precise control, which will only be unlocked at the onset of the disease, because it will fuse the nerves.

[Little octopus: These fused nerves will regrow adhesions in a specific state, which happens to provide new power supply and stimulation lines for the chip's scheduling algorithm, that is, new possibilities. 】

[Little Octopus: To put it simply, in a cyber psychotic state, the nerve will be fused, although the nerve is biologically dead, but physically it can still conduct electricity, so it is activated by nano contacts. 】

[Little Octopus: The AI carried by "Reality Distortion" is equivalent to helping people rebuild broken nerves. 】

[Little Octopus: But the process will be very painful, quite painful.] 】

[Little Octopus: He will now accidentally activate Sianweistein, but the scheduling algorithm and body do not support him to move at high speed, so it suddenly became a slow-motion state just now. 】

The direct pain of the nerves interferes with the brain's control of the limbs, and while it is unlikely that you will die from the pain, it is entirely possible that you will become a puddle of soft and vegetative people on the ground because of such pain.

Extremely functional prostheses don't take into account the user's comfort level, and not many people can resist such pain.

So cyber psychosis is a really complicated thing.

This is not bad news, as it means that the Chiyo 5 "Reality Twist" Snwestein, while very potential, seems to be related to cyberpsychosis and nerve damage, and is quite unstable.

Lille shook his head: "No, someone will pick you up in a while, specializing in cyber psychosis." ”

"Nope." Kaniek shook his head suddenly, looking straight at Lille, "I know who's going to pick me up, I know about the project, and Nadia is in there."

It must have been Kang Tao who came, and the trauma team had an agreement with them to use me as a guinea pig, and I agreed to install this thing in order to better help Nadia.

They're going to cut open my body and take all the data and prosthetics for research."

Lille looked at him like this, folded his hands to his chest, and asked him:

"But isn't that what your girlfriend wants to do? Save people, save cyber psychosis, the people in the project may just want to reduce the probability of prosthetic induced cyber psychosis, so that their prosthetics can sell well, but the result has not changed much, and in the end the prosthetic body will be safer. ”

"No, no, no!" Kaniek shook his head resolutely, "I know it's her ideal, but how do you want me to forget how she died?" Yes?!

Before I met her, I just wanted to live well, and after I met her, I just wanted to help her dream perfectly, do you think I am also that kind of person?

I'm not! I just love her, that's why I do it! Now, now—

Fuck cyber psychosis, I don't care! I just want to see the company dog scratching his ears and cheeks! They don't get anything! ”

He lay back on the hospital bed, looking at the ceiling, with a complicated smile on the corner of his mouth, like a mockery, like a self-defeating one.

"My world is only better because of Nadia, and I'm willing to do anything if she's happy.

But now, I'm just a street kid in Chicago seven years ago, and think about how much money they're going to lose without my data.

It's worth it, hey, it's worth it. ”

Kaniek looked at the ceiling like this, and after a moment of silence, he looked at Lille again:

"Just like you, you know, right? You know.

Kill me, you can take the data in my prosthetic body and even the prosthetic, it doesn't matter who you want to sell it to, this is my last asset.

Just don't, put, me, send, back, go.

Stupid company dogs, Lao Tzu will leave nothing for them! ”

Lille looked at this crazy man and felt a lot of thoughts.

He's not the kind of person who will always persuade people to live and have hope.

Choosing how to die, in Night City, is actually a luxury.

Actually, the data I want has already been obtained from you, as for the prosthesis. A burned-out and ruined Sanwistan is of little value to me. ”

Kaniek was stunned for a moment, and then he saw Lille pick up a pistol and put it against the door of his head.

"But. You're in luck, I'm a soft-hearted person. ”

"Hey, hey." Kaniek smiled, his eyes showing no fear of death at all, no hesitation or superfluous thought.

"Indeed, you're right, I'm lucky."

Although as a trauma team employee Kaniek Roswald, he experienced a fatal defeat and even betrayed the company and employer.

But as a mercenary and street boy, Kaniek Rothwald remained true to his most important employer in life.

And the revenge is done.

Bang.
