The giant corporations that started in Night City

"Understood! I will urge Ultra to develop the Soul Killer 2.0 version as soon as possible!" Harada Aoshiro responded seriously without any slackness.

After that, Harada Aoshiro suddenly asked: "What about the little leaders of the Tiger Claw Gang, such as Sato Hiromi and Masahiro Jotaro?"

The AI ​​Soul Killer project is of great importance. In addition to the core executives of Arasaka Company, only the insignificant little bastards of the Tiger Claw Gang know about it.

"They have done a good job in this matter. They should be rewarded and let them continue to work in Night City."

Arasaka Saburo, who got the Soul Killer AI, was in a very good mood at the moment. Anyway, the world will know the existence of the Soul Killer sooner or later, so he is too lazy to kill people to silence them.

It just so happens that Sato Hiromi and Taketo's lackeys are very neat and tidy, so it's good to keep them for next time.

'After all, I'm not a devil. ' Arasaka Saburo thought.

"So, the business plan in Watson District has been shelved?" Aoshiro couldn't help but continue to ask.

Originally, Arasaka's business plan was to use the Kabuki District as a springboard to take over the seaside entrance and the northern industrial zone, which would be beneficial to the company's business dealings.

But the sudden rise of LA Company in Little Chinatown forced them to be cautious.

After several months of open and secret investigations, Arasaka also roughly figured out the details of LA Company, which is a weapons manufacturing company with no background.

At least, LA Company has nothing to do with the military technology they speculated. The two parties are not even partners, let alone any subsidiaries!

"In addition, Lucy, a hacker who has been wanted by our company for a long time, is currently working at LA Company. Do we need to negotiate with their supervisor Li Ang?"

Lucy is a hacker cultivated by Arasaka since childhood. She knows many details of the Arasaka network. Once leaked to other companies, it will bring immeasurable losses to Arasaka.

Hearing this, Arasaka Saburo was silent for a moment. The Arasaka executives below could see Saburo's thoughtful expression at this time through the holographic projection.

Obviously, at this juncture, Saburo Arasaka was not willing to cause any more trouble. After all, it was impossible for a company that could rise in such a short time to say that Li Ang had no background.

But Arasaka Company could not find the specific information of LA Company, which was enough to show that Li Ang might be the roving AI force behind the black wall!

After all, apart from the AI ​​behind the black wall, which other company could control such advanced weapons manufacturing capabilities and rise rapidly in the Watson District.

"Don't worry about the business in Watson for the time being, and don't provoke LA Company for the time being. Put the soul killer AI in place, and then talk about other things."

"As for Lucy... If there is really no way to get her back, find an opportunity to kill her, remember to do it cleanly."

"If we can't get her, other companies can't get her either."

Saburo Arasaka said in a deep voice, his tone was slightly tired, and fighting with the military technology company for so many days took away a lot of his energy.

Saburo was not sure how long his old bones could support the company empire, so what he wanted most at the moment was to achieve immortality!

Difficult military technology, the powerful European Community, the complicated Cubans, and the increasingly frequent invading AIs, these are the problems that Arasaka Company must face.

And no one can take charge of the overall situation in Arasaka Company except him, Saburo Arasaka!

"Understood."

Shiro Toushiro nodded in agreement. It seems that before using the 2.0 version of the soul killer, they can just use Lucy to do a killing test!

Soon, after the company meeting, Harada Toushiro brought people to the mysterious room of the headquarters, where the person imprisoned was Ott Cunningham.

At this time, Ott was lying on a chair dedicated to deep diving cyberspace. This device can be used to cool the human body and protect the brain from data erosion.

The so-called cyberspace mainly refers to the virtual space constructed by the network management using information density and resistance strength. Hackers can use deep diving devices to transform into supercomputers and move freely in it.

Now Ott Cunningham is in cyberspace, using his own control panel to recompile a new version of the AI ​​Soul Killer.

Next to her, there are three hacker masters who have also entered this cyberspace.

Through the real-time holographic picture sent by the Arasaka hacker, Azuma Shiro can see that Ott is using the control device to stir up countless strings of AI code in the sea of ​​data of the Shinto server.

Through the completeness of the code framework, he knows that the 2.0 version of the Soul Killer is only a few days away from the success of the iteration.

Mr. Saburo's immortality plan is just around the corner!

…

Little Chinatown, LA company headquarters.

While touching the dog head of "Iron Pilot", Li Ang was thinking about the next decision-making steps.

Iron Pilot is the cyber Doberman that Lucius gave to Li Ang. This Doberman has a very agile and domineering appearance, and has some prosthetic devices on his body, so Li Ang gave it a more appropriate name.

Seeing Leon "absent-mindedly" touching the head of the pilot, Johnny Silverhand was anxious. Time waits for no one, he must save Ultra as soon as possible.

"Boss Leon, I just want to borrow someone from you, do you have to touch the head for so long?"

Just an hour ago, Johnny told Leon that the military technology people came to his door and that he needed Morgan Blackhand to go with him to rescue Ultra.

Originally, he thought that Leon would lend him the person without saying anything to solve this troublesome matter, but he didn't expect that the other party would show an embarrassed and thoughtful look on his face.

Isn't it just to rescue someone in Arasaka Tower? Why is it so cautious!

Johnny complained helplessly, "Lend it or not, give me a straight answer, okay? If you keep waiting like this, the daylily will soon be cold."

As soon as this sentence came out, it immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of everyone in Mann's team.

Mann glared and said to Johnny in a muffled voice:

"Hey! Rock boy, please show some respect to me. You are begging our boss now. Do you understand the situation?"

Johnny Silverhand was about to retort to Mann, "Who the hell are you?", but when he thought that he was asking for help, he forced himself to hold it back.

After Li Ang sorted out his thoughts, he did not rush to agree to lend Morgan Black Hand to Johnny to save Ultra, but asked back: "When was Ultra captured?"

Although Li Ang knew the real purpose of Arasaka Company to capture Ultra, he did not know how long Ultra had been missing.

If it has been more than a week, then I am afraid that the 2.0 version of AI Soul Killer will soon be released!

The Soul Killer of version 1.0 and 2.0 has actually been greatly optimized in terms of memory, and the main difference is not very big.

The most critical function is to annihilate human consciousness!

But in the critical 2.5 version, the AI ​​soul killer of this period will have true self-awareness and become a program matrix that can be used to capture human consciousness and imprint souls.

Destruction and immortality are just a thought away from the user.
