Chapter 665: Righteous Power (Part 2)
Lucy also has parents. Not only does she have parents, she also has a very good family background.
Her father is a senior employee of Arasaka and made outstanding achievements in the Fourth Corporate War. Her mother is a hacker from Poland with superb skills. After marrying Lucy's father, she ended her non-staff work and enjoyed the glory and wealth——
David's experience of studying at Arasaka Academy seemed to be a very high level of education among the team, but in front of Lucy, it was nothing.
Lucy lived in a luxurious villa in Warsaw when she was a child!
But as she became interested in the Internet and began to participate in Internet activities, these things changed——
In short, he was finally sent to the Arasaka Group by his father to serve as a black wall attacker and mine data from the old era on the old network.
Then Lucy ran away, and before running to Night City, her mother returned to her old ways and started tracking her on the Internet.
When she saw this information, the fear of running away and the despair of being hunted by her loved ones who contributed to the company once again enveloped her.
".David" Lucy's voice was trembling, her emotions were overflowing, and she couldn't control it anymore.
Seeing her like this, David was stunned.
She lowered her head: "Do you still remember our agreement? We are only a little bit away from going to the moon together. Don't make this deal."
David had never seen Lucy like this.
She was really scared.
Betrayed by her father and hunted by her mother, she was the only one of her colleagues who survived and escaped from hell. Doubt became the cornerstone of her life, but once she had something...
The fear of loss overwhelms almost everything else.
The situation here also attracted the other braggadocio's accomplices. Mann, Dorio, Rebekah, Pyrrha, and Qiwei all stopped braggart and looked over.
Mann asked directly: "What's wrong?"
David didn't hide anything: "It's the entrustment from my eldest brother."
Qiwei lit a cigarette: "I understand, let's die, right? How much will it cost?"
"This is not about money!" Lucy was very excited and pointed outside, "Look at the troops outside, this is no joke!"
Arasaka's drones can be seen flying through the sky at almost any time on the streets, and armored vehicles are transporting robots and soldiers to Taiping Prefecture one after another.
"It's really not about money," David said slowly, "The price offered by the elder brother is 1 million euros, but there is no deposit. This order"
"Good guy." Mann touched his chin, "Then this is really hard to say."
Rebekah and Pyrrha sat next to each other and didn't speak. The former looked at Lucy and David, while the latter looked at neither of them.
Before Lucy could continue speaking, David said decisively: "This order needs to be done."
He looked at Lucy and sincerely grabbed Lucy's hand:
"Lucy, I know you are afraid, afraid that our agreement will not be fulfilled, afraid that the things that are just a little bit away from you will disappear.
Have you met my mother?"
Lucy interrupted directly: "She is a very gentle mother. She definitely doesn't want you to die!"
"But just 10 months ago, we were involved in a gang shootout on the road. I sent my mother to the hospital like an idiot, ran to school, and almost had her cut into pieces by a scavenger.
If there was no big brother, I would have lost her long ago, if there was no big brother."
David looked at the people present——
To be honest, dangers are often caused by working for Lille.
However, the people here are not too pretentious to understand the situation: even if there is no Lille, wouldn't there be other middlemen to send them dangerous commissions?
Other middlemen may not necessarily give them such generous rewards, and may even sell them.
Although working for Lear was dangerous, the rewards were generous every time. Lear also provided them with a lot of help: new cars, weapons, and prosthetics.
Apart from anything else, Mann's mental condition is much more stable now.
Isn’t that what work is for?
David said: “Some people say that borderline walkers like us are just poor souls running from something, but I don’t think so.
The first time I fought was not for money, nor to escape from anything, but to protect my mother——
That old man was going to sell my mother to a scavenger. I acted like a fool and should have shot him, but I just gave him a slap. If it hadn't been for my elder brother, I would have been a corpse by now.
In the second battle, I started to learn to use a gun seriously, this time it was not for anything else, just "
David paused, his eyes so clear that Lucy felt a little ashamed of herself.
"Just for you, I know you must be a girl with a story, but I am as stupid as a brainless person.
I will learn to use a gun, I will protect you, and then we will make money together, chat together, talk about the future together, and go to the moon together.
To this day, I will use weapons for this goal and continue to fight——
Wandering on the edge is not an escape, but the only way I can protect you in this city, the only way I can hold your hand and welcome the future together. "
"But. But"
Then why are you going to die?
The words were not spoken, and Lucy only felt that her throat was stuck.
David paused and took out his pistol from his pocket——
Constitution, military industry, freedom.
The same model of gun was given to him by someone else to protect his mother. Now this gun is also helping him fight for a future.
The gun was thrust into Lucy's hand, and David grabbed the gun and her hand:
"You're right, the elder brother literally asked us to die: he asked us to attack Arasaka Tower.
I can't understand why the elder brother went to such an extent, why he chose to attack the mayor, and why he went against the company.
Just like I couldn't understand before why my elder brother would save me and save me, a brain-dead person like other people in Night City, but I will definitely make this order.
This is my third fight. Lucy, I hope you can put this gun in my hand, because I want to be as powerful as my eldest brother. If my eldest brother can't do it, why can we do it?
But even if you don’t put the gun in my hand, I will”
Before she finished speaking, Lucy lowered her head, grabbed David's hand and gun, and pushed them back to his chest.
"You are such a..."
What a fool.
"Okay!" Mann chuckled and hugged Dorio, "Then let's get started."
Click——
A very, very soft voice sounded. If it weren't for the modified person with specially enhanced hearing, this voice would be like a whisper in the thunder, and it would dissipate in the wind in an instant.
But David happened to have strengthened his hearing system!
This is the sound of a bomb hitting the wall!
"bomb!"
The world in David's eyes suddenly slowed down——
The walls of the building where they were hiding began to shatter, and the invisible air smashed through it like a fist!
boom!
Shock waves and fragments instantly filled the entire room!
Under David's reminder, everyone at least did not bear this terrifying impact with a blank face:
This huge force even blasted through the entire room one after another!
Fortunately, David discovered the attack in advance, and everyone hid at least part of their bodies behind the bunker before the explosion.
But the power was so powerful that they felt like the world was spinning, and then they were thrown out of the wall!
Snap.
An Arasaka ninja jumped into the breach, grabbing a gun in one hand and a knife in the other, almost completely invisible under the cover of smoke and dust.
But the ground was full of gravel.
Snap.
Bang!
The gunshot sounded almost at the same time as the sound of him stepping on gravel, and the katana in the ninja's hand bounced the bullet away instantly——
But an invisible monomolecular line swept through the air and tightly entangled his defenseless katana, causing his hand that was originally intended to continue to chop away bullets to stop!
puff!
A series of bullets were sent into the ninja's head, the body fell, and the Arasaka troops on the road stopped instantly!
Their colleague was killed!
"Mann!"
David got up from Lucy and let go of her arm:
At the moment of the explosion, he caught Lucy, opened her monomolecular line prosthetic body, and planned the counterattack!
But that's not the case with the company troops on the street outside!
Mann pushed away the cover that was pressing on him: the moment the explosion occurred, he rushed towards Rebekah and Pyrrha——
"Everyone is okay! Dorio!"
Dorio ran towards the gap as soon as she got up. When she saw this, her mood fell to the bottom:
Their car parked outside was also bombed!
Mackinac burned in raging flames, the sound of Arasaka's drone came from the sky, and they were trapped to death in this house!
An Arasaka Emperor Ragnar changed direction and rushed towards the entrance of the building——
It’s over!
As soon as such desperate thoughts appeared in my heart, a powerful and familiar voice sounded:
boom--
It’s the engine sound of the Mackinac Mammoth!
"Fuck you Arasaka!"
A Mackinac Mammoth slammed into the side of Emperor Ragnar. The strong horsepower directly pushed the company's urban armored vehicle into the corner of the wall, blocking it from the waist and deforming it!
But the driver didn't stop attacking——
This is not an ordinary Mackinac mammoth, it is Valentino's mammoth, a mammoth loaded with weapons. It is a mammoth issued by Lear to Valentino to carry out NCPD outsourcing tasks!
The heavy machine gun loaded on the pickup truck fired at Emperor Ragnar at super close range without any explanation. The bullets penetrated the glass and armor, turning everyone inside to blood!
Whoosh——
The passengers inside popped up and fired a rocket launcher at the Octant drone that had just flown in!
boom!
Such an exciting scene, Dorio had no time to say anything, David saw this scene at a glance!
And the driver inside
He actually knew him!
It was the Achido who stuffed a gun into him and asked him to shave both ears of the doctor!
"Bah, stupid company dog"
"Achido!" David grabbed the outer wall of the building and jumped down. "Borrow the car! Brother has a mission!"
Achido was stunned for a moment——
"Get in the car! I'm here to help you!"
