night city.

Santo Domingo district.

An inconspicuous small building.

This is the temporary stronghold of Mann's team.

In the bar on the first floor, a burly man was sitting on the bar counter, chatting casually with the people next to him.

"Dorio, today Lucy said she met a strange man on the light rail."

"The information identification device we bought couldn't read his information at all."

The same burly woman next to him picked up the wine glass and drank it down.

The little girl with two ponytails on the bar refilled another drink for her.

"Unrecognizable? Is it Arasaka's high-level executives? Their firewall is very advanced, maybe your stuff won't work."

The woman's voice has a bold feeling.

"Impossible, that thing simulates the opponent's strength through data analysis, and it won't really invade his chip.

"And that kid's chip model is called Siren Technology, has any of you heard of it?"

The burly woman shook her head.

"Rebecca?"

The little girl with two ponytails at the bar clicked on a holographic interface, searched for it, and then shook her head.

"No, 80% of the brain-computer chips in Night City are Arasaka. I have never heard of siren technology."

"Data Curry can't find any data either."

"And after that? What is Lucy going to do?"

Dorio asked again.

"She said she wanted to try it...then lost contact immediately."

Mann said, banging his head.

"Has Lucy been arrested?!"

Rebecca's glass-wiping hand was in the air.

If this kind of thing is discovered in public, everyone knows what will happen.

There's no order in Night City, and if you play badly, you might be able to run away.

If you can't beat it, or the owner is a powerful company executive.

Then the NCPD and the terrorist mobile team will kill you.

"No, since she started to act, she has been out of contact for about five or six hours."

"Afterwards, she replied to my message, saying that she would bring someone to the stronghold, that guy full of question marks.

"Could it be that you want to catch us all?"

Dorio frowned.

"I trust Lucy, she won't do anything to betray her companions.

Mann looked at the door. 657

squeak --

The door opens.

Lucy and Chen Lu walked into the bar one after the other.

"Yo, Mann, hello, my name is Chen Lu, and I am a foreign traveler."

"I got to know Miss Lucy today by accident, I think we should have a common language."

"Is Rebecca here too? Just right, make me a glass of grape-flavored carbonated drink, and add more ice.

Chen Lu sat next to Mann with a smile, and handed Rebecca a banknote.

Lucy followed, looking weird.

"Is this person familiar?"

Although she told Chen Lu about Mann, she never mentioned Rebecca.

How does it look like, this guy knows everyone?!

"Okay, Rebecca's special blend, a glass of 100 Euros, change!"

The little girl with two ponytails accepted the hundred-yuan bill and stuffed a can of soda into Chen Lu's hand.

"you....…"

Mann stared at Chen Lu and glanced up and down.

"You don't have any prosthetics installed?!"

"Yes, pure human."

Chen Lu took a few sips of soda and nodded.

All three people near the bar stared and looked at him in amazement.

It was the first time Mann had seen such a clean human being in decades.

No prosthetic limbs, no chip sockets in the neck, no prosthetic eyes.

Just like a man who escaped from a museum.

Only backward 20th century people would be dressed like this.

Then Mann looked back at Lucy.

"He wants to make money in Night City, and he doesn't get along well with Arasaka, so I think we can work together.

Lucy answered succinctly.

"Money and hatred..."

"That's really a good reason to collaborate."

"Boy, how much money do you want to make?"

Mann took a puff of cigarette and asked.

"1000/Z,"

"Cough—cough—

Both Mann and Doriot choked.

Staring at Chen Lu and laughing.

"One hundred billion?! Kid? Did I hear correctly?"

"You don't have cyber mental illness, do you? No, you don't have a prosthetic body?"

"Never mind, the captain is this kind of person."

Lucy looked a little embarrassed.

"It doesn't matter."

Chen Lu waved his hand. The people in Mann's team aren't bad, but this guy is a straight-up guy.

Hearing such explosive information at once, the reaction was also expected.

"Captain, he is very powerful, maybe even stronger than the Terrorist Mobile Squad.

After Mann had laughed enough, Lucy added.

"How powerful is it? How many NCPD dogs can you beat?"

Dorio crossed her legs and turned around to stare at Chen Lu.

"I can fight as many as there are if they're willing to stand together."

"..."

Mann leaned over and stared at Chen Lu for a while.

Make sure his expression is really serious and doesn't look like a cyberpsychopath.

"Of course you can join the Hanbo team, but we have to fight. Let me see if you are as good as Lucy said."

The burly man exuded a smell of smoke.

"Okay, come on."

ten minutes later.

The bar was closed and the tables and chairs inside were vacated.

The other members of Mann's team were all present, leaning against the wall and looking at the two people in the middle of the field with interest.

In terms of body size, the difference between the two is obvious, Chen Lu's height almost only reaches Mann's chest.

"I bet 200 Euros that the boss will win."

Rebecca said as she wiped the table.

"I bet Chen Lu to win, 2000 Euros.

Lucy stared at the man intently.

"You have so much confidence in him?..."

I haven't waited for Rebecca to ask more.

The battle has already begun.

"Come!"

Mann took a step forward, and slammed his iron arm at Chen Lu.

This blow used the power device inside the prosthetic body, and under the action of the kung fu chip, the strength of the iron fist was enough to penetrate the reinforced concrete wall.

Snapped--

Chen Lu blocked it with one hand.

"Brother, your strength is several grades weaker than Kaiju Beast's."

I don't know if I have become stronger, or if Mann is just too bad.

Blocking his attack was easier than beating up the chrysanthemum beast.

"Blocked?" One blow didn't work.

Mann held up his other hand.

call out--

The fist swept over with a piercing sound.

-

It was easily blocked again.

Chen Lu stood there motionless.

Then she took his hand and flicked it aside.

Mann made two circles in the (cabb) air and fell heavily to the ground.

One foot stepped on the concrete floor next to his head.

Crackling——

A radial crack appeared on the ground in an instant.

The air was quiet for ten seconds.

The Cyber ​​Squad stared at the scene in front of them dumbfounded.

Chen Lu's shoes stepped into the concrete floor by more than 3 centimeters.

If this blow lands on someone's head...

Gudoo -

Mann turned his head to look, and swallowed.

With an overwhelming strength advantage, there is no room for resistance.

Obviously, he didn't even bother to fight seriously with himself.

Just a simple show of power.

In less than twenty seconds, the battle was over.

"I surrender..."

Mann struggled to get up from the ground.

"Get to know each other again? My name is Chen Lu, a traveler, and I'm going to make some money in Night City."

The big man collected himself and shook hands with Chen Lu.

"Mann...Cyber ​​Squad Captain."

"What do you want to do?"

At this moment, he was completely blinded.

Mann is the most powerful person in the entire cyber team, and he can't beat Chen Lu for 1 second.

Lucy is the best hacker, almost got his brain burned.

The Cyber ​​Squad couldn't afford to offend the great god in front of them.

Chen Lu pulled up a chair and sat down.

"Simply put, I want to establish a company in Night City and make it the sole master of Night City.

"By the way, how about getting rid of Arasaka and military technology, isn't it exciting?"

Everyone was silent for a while.

"You want to start from scratch and build a company that can fight against Arasaka and military technology?"

"Also, the reason we become rebels is that we don't want to work for the company. If you become like them, please forgive me for not being able to cooperate."

Lucy's face was a little ugly.

She originally thought that Chen Lu wanted to join Cyber ​​Squad, but his goal turned out to be to start a company too?

"Incorporating a company is just a formality."

"Don't compare me to those vampires, I want to reshape the order of Night City."

Chen Lu said coldly:

"You rebels, one or two talk about killing Arasaka, what else can you do besides stealing chips and robbing Arasaka's employees?"

"Can these petty fights hurt Arasaka's vitality? Will their stock price drop by even one percent because of you?! As long as Saburo Arasaka wants to, he can crush you to death like bugs at any time!"

The words are heavy, but only in this way can they face the reality.

"I"

Lucy opened her mouth, wanting to refute Chen Lu, but found no reason at all.

The balance of power in Night City is just so hopeless.

Countless people wanted to overthrow Arasaka Corporation and kill military technology, but no one succeeded.

These cyber squads are just carrying out a resistance that is doomed to fail.

Two vehicles of the Terrorist Mobile Team, or a few trauma teams, or even Adam Hammer alone, can crush these insignificant rebels to death.

He doesn't even have the qualifications to be people's after-dinner conversation.

The bar was quiet for a long time.

"How...how are you going to resist Arasaka?"

Mann asked hoarsely.

He really couldn't imagine how a person would fight against a giant with more than 500,000 employees and hundreds of thousands of mercenaries.

"Resist? No, I won't fight like you guys."

Chen Lu stared at the Cyber ​​Squad.

"It's going to be a revolution."

"I want to completely change the status quo of Night City from the bottom up, destroy those vampire companies, and establish a new order.

"Killing Saburo Arasaka is no different from killing a chicken, but before that, I have to do something else to completely drain the value of the Arasaka Group.

"As for the future development plan, it's useless to tell you now."

"If you want to understand, you can go and see how the ancient oriental country was established more than a hundred years ago.

Only the elite in Night City can receive education, and these rebels have no experience in how to fight the giants.

Without advanced theoretical guidance, it is just a group of stragglers.

The rest of the team looked at each other.

Revolution, this word is too unfamiliar to them.

But Chen Lu's previous performance was too shocking, and everyone was struggling.

In Night City, there is no harm in having one more powerful companion.

"Defeat Arasaka...to restore order..."

After a few more minutes, Lucy bit her lip first and said:

"Count me in, even if I can't beat Arasaka, I will leave my name in Night City.

"I don't want to just die in obscurity."

The quirky loli Rebecca immediately raised her hand:

"I'm coming too, I can provide you with fire support!"

More and more team members raised their hands in agreement.

Mann struggled for a long time.

Finally made up his mind and shook hands with Chen Lu.

"Sir, I hope we can cooperate happily."

"Sir? No, as I said, I want to bring about a revolution in Night City."

Chen Lu smiled and shook his head.

"We will be comrades in the future, Davarish."
