Cyberpunk: 2075

In recent years, most people don’t know who they should trust anymore. !

"Family?'

We have the same blood in our veins.

'friend? "

We have similar tastes in jokes and wine.

“Or are you talking about business partners?

‘After all, it’s money that brings us together. ’

Oriona doesn't know who she should trust, nor who should guarantee this trust, because in the end,

She's just a mercenary.

A very ordinary mercenary in the Night City, someone could become someone at any time, and someone could die at any time.

Oriona has been a mercenary for some time, and she has been working for the middleman Cormac. Today, she and her companion, the strong man from the Animal Gang, took over Cormac's new mission and prepared to go outside the city. She met with the connector and retrieved the goods the middleman needed. On the eve of departure, she met the guarantor, or in other words, the insurance officer sent by Cormac during this mission.

Mercenary KK.

There will be no one in the Night City who has not heard of his name, and there will be no one who cannot recognize him. Just the release of this name is enough to calm down the street gang gunfight, and now he is standing in Austria. In front of Leona.

Recently, Oliona has become somewhat famous on the streets. She also knows that she will soon be able to take on more jobs. Maybe after a while, she will be qualified to sit in the next life, and it is Because of this, she clearly understood how outstanding and outstanding the young man in front of her was, so much so that Olionna felt her back getting wet just by standing there casually.

This is purely a physical reaction caused by instinct.

"Oleona."

Oriona heard the black-haired young man call her name, and at the same time she glanced away from her companions: "And Kilai."

Just calling their names casually, Olionna felt that as the other person spoke, the pressure on her body calmed down a lot in an instant, and even some of the stiffness in her limbs seemed to have been eased.

With her throat feeling a little dry, Oriona saw the performance of her mercenary companion Kirai out of the corner of her eye.

The other party was even more unbearable than herself. When KK called her name, her body shook involuntarily. The trembling look of her two-meter-tall strong body looked particularly funny, but Olionna's Sometimes I can't laugh.

Guaranteed for you.

This is what Cormac often says. He always likes to vouch for others, but today's guarantor is too powerful.

"I'm Oriona."

Oriona, who is usually aggressive, always behaves strongly, swears a lot, and refuses to back down from things, showed a rare gentle gesture: "Hello, this is the first time we meet."

"That's quite polite."

It was rare for Karl to hear such a polite address from a mercenary, and he couldn't help but take a few more glances at Olionna. This mercenary who had recently made a name for herself on the streets had won the favor of the old captain, which aroused his curiosity. mercenaries.

In appearance, Oriona is a typical punk character.

Her hair stood up like green combs. She was wearing a bright yellow jacket and a pair of very short jeans. The overall shape was quite suitable for flexible movement in battle, and if we want to say that her whole body was the most The eye-catching part must be her right hand, which is a pink mechanical prosthesis.

Women use pink prosthetics...: Well, that seems pretty normal.

After a brief acquaintance, Karl told Oriona about his responsibilities as a guarantor this time according to what Cormac had said in advance:

"We will follow you, and you will carry out the entire mission. We will watch the whole process. We will only take over when your mission fails. If the whole process goes smoothly, then after your mission is completed, we will leave on our own... ..No problem?”

"I guarantee you, we all understand Cormac's standard procedures."

"That's fine."

Nodding slightly, Karl's impression of Oriona was not bad because of her polite greeting, so he smiled back: "Then, you can start taking action."

Obviously, his words meant the end of the meeting and release, and after these words, Oriona felt that the trembling of her mercenary companion Kilai stopped.

Seeing Oriona and Kirai quickly getting into the car and starting to leave, almost escaping, V greeted Karl from behind: "You seem to have scared them?"

"Is there any?"

Karl briefly recalled the whole process of the meeting, and felt that he should not have shown any hostile attitude: "I think the chat went smoothly."

“If I want to say it went smoothly, it was indeed very smooth.

It was actually quite interesting to watch the two mercenaries cowering in front of Carl like frightened birds. However, V still did not forget their guarantee duties today, so he opened the co-pilot and asked Carl to get in. : "Let's go, you have to do a good job after taking the job. We have to follow and watch the whole process. If something happens and they fail, we have to take action."

"I think there may be no need for us to take action."

Karl got into the passenger seat and stared at the vehicle in the distance ahead: "That Kilai has Titan subcutaneous armor installed on half of his body. He is quite capable."

"Titan subcutaneous armor, that heavy subcutaneous armor model?"

V had been sitting in the car just now and didn't take a closer look at the huddled strong man. He didn't expect that the other man was actually equipped with that level of subcutaneous armor: "That's not a so-called ordinary submachine gun. It may not even leave a trace if it is hit by it." Is it the model number printed below? As a street mercenary, he is indeed quite capable."

"And Kirai is second... Do you know how that Oriona makes me feel?"

"What does it feel like?"

"Familiarity."

"Familiarity?"

V doesn't understand. Familiarity should have nothing to do with ability.

"Could it be that she is someone with a systematic training background like Mr. Kenichi Shiro?"

"Not really, it's just that her subconscious actions and her nervous behavior and caution when facing me reminded me of a video record I had seen from some years ago, about a man named Warren from 40 years ago. Tino Gang legend moves."

"Legend of the Valentino Gang?"

Hearing this word related to Jack, V raised his eyes and glanced at Carl: "What is that?"

"The mourning girl."

Karl said: "The predator at the top of the food chain in Night City in the era of the jungle."
