Chapter 671 The Hanged Man (Part 2)
[Ballistic missiles are a cause of shared weal and woe for security. 】
Lear had never had any trouble with this ultimate weapon of war. He only knew that peace seemed to be maintained by weapons——
Everyone is afraid of someone holding the power to destroy the world, so they live in balance and enjoy the dream that will break sooner or later.
Of course, these are what Lille thought after learning about this technology. Before that, his thoughts were:
Now that everyone can sit down and talk, he must also work hard to lay a solid foundation for the future.
He once thought it was something prepared for peace, but in the end that thought was just self-deception.
But now, at least he could use this weapon to protect them before everything was destroyed.
In the cyberpunk world, the most powerful ballistic weapon is the European Community's orbital mass projector, which is extremely accurate. The projectile can eventually hit the target at a speed between Mach 8 and Mach 24 as needed, causing destruction near the impact point. Sexual blow.
But this kind of speed can be achieved by the ballistic weapons technology that Lear is familiar with without the need to project from the moon!
Later in the war, every intercontinental ballistic missile they launched could fly at Mach 24. He launched hundreds of these missiles!
This crude nuclear missile will eventually hit the Kujira at a speed of Mach 6-10. The specific value of this speed will depend on the specific operating conditions——
But even at the lowest value of Mach 6, at Mach 6 speed, the missile flew in a weird maneuvering trajectory under the control of AI, and the Kujira only had an interception rate of less than single digits after disconnecting from Arasaka Tower!
The premise is: Lear will be on this missile.
As an AI, he has no way to resist his instinct, but he can convince himself that he can escape, at least there is a chance to escape.
That opportunity was where David attacked: the server named "Mikoshi" located underneath Arasaka Tower——
This server is loaded with Arasaka Tower's most cutting-edge soul killer research, stores a large number of digital souls that Arasaka is researching, and also contains the most unique digital souls. In terms of specifications, this is definitely the world's top server!
Using this server and Arasaka's communication antenna, Lear has a good chance of uploading his data to this server after the nuclear bomb breaks through the interception network, and using Arasaka's facilities to escape to the network——
And there is still hope of escaping the pursuit of the black wall.
The moment David connected to the mikoshi, the biggest secret of Arasaka Tower and Saburo Arasaka's most valued property in Night City was removed from the hidden firewall. Through their antennas, the network was exposed to the air!
"They seem to be retreating!"
Jack shook off the drone in his hand, and oil sprayed out.
V chopped down a military technology soldier and sucked it into the side of the Chimera:
She saw the idiots outside the NCPD shouting and killing while carrying the military equipment of the Nether Dog and heading out to kill.
When fighting or killing a person, she will be extremely sensitive to the moment when the opponent relaxes, the details of being at a disadvantage, and the end point that symbolizes the final victory. To her, those moments are as conspicuous as Lear's stinky expression. .
But on the battlefield?
All she knew was that she was going on a killing spree!
As for when the killing will end? She didn't know, and she actually felt that the company wouldn't be able to kill them all, and they would probably run away in the end.
But now.
The company retreated?
She raised her head and instinctively looked at the company square. She saw that Arasaka Tower had begun to burst into flames, and all the lights of other companies had been extinguished.
Did they win?
This idea has no real sense. Winning a war for the first time is not like winning a fight for the first time. You can hear the wails and screams of the opponent, the sound of the opponent's bones breaking, and the sound of the internal organs exploding.
The sergeant only had one leg left, and the armor plates of Brick's two arms were all blown off. A large area of the body cables were exposed, stained with blood and unknown liquid.
Joestar carries the case with Mom on his back.
He, like everyone else, echoed a voice in his heart that they themselves did not believe:
They won!
The company dog ran away with its butt stuck out, the company building was dark in winter, and they were the only people left on the street.
They won!
“The company dog got away!”
"Damn it, we fucked the company!"
"The company is bankrupt!"
"Which company."
"Idiot! I said the company went bankrupt!"
Jack slapped V hard, and the expression on his face was even more joyful:
"We. We won! V, we took the company dog. It was not a certain company dog, it was the company dog. The company drove them away!
We can go home! We can go on vacation, we can enjoy life, we can be real big shots now! ! ! "
V didn't say anything for a long time, but there was a loud noise behind him:
Boom——
She looked up and saw a missile. Or a rocket, she didn't know. Anyway, he saw something like that rising into the sky.
The flames at the tail were extremely dazzling, leaving a long trace of light in the sky above Dog Town.
It seems to be adding fireworks to this victory.
A float car comes from the moon.
[V: Lille? Are you in the car? 】
The missile flew towards the sky.
The company began to withdraw its troops.
Both the Arasaka Group and Military Technology began to withdraw from Taiping Prefecture.
Some people, like those gang outsourcers from NCPD, think everything is over——
More importantly, they felt that they had seen something extremely absurd: the company. The company gave in? !
But others did not: such as Meredith Stout, such as the old captain, Mr. Hands, Fiona, Sherman
They were educated and had worked for the company. They knew more about the horror of the company, and were actually more afraid of the company and understood the company's methods.
The company would not give in. The retreat could only mean one thing:
They believed that some kind of weapon of mass destruction was about to be released.
However, the first thing they saw was not the company's fighter planes flying across the sky, but a small missile with a dazzling tail flame launched from Dog Town.
A missile?
I don't know how many missiles will fall in Dog Town in a while.
But they didn't know yet that there would be no such result today.
Lear was flying.
He saw the cheering crowd and the worried Night City.
Using the equipment in Arasaka Tower, he saw this city, the place where he had struggled for a year:
This place is really dirty, smelly, messy and chaotic, but he met many people here, and started his other life here.
He changed this city like a street kid, and now there are traces of him everywhere:
The unjust are afraid of him, the cruel are afraid of him, the arrogant are disgusted with him, and the lower class worship him
He is a legend, and the only one: he made the city into him, instead of letting the city change him.
Cyberspace is disappearing, getting farther and farther away from him.
Then he saw the Badlands and Santo Domingo farther away, which were poor and barren, with only turbid sewage, smelly air, and a desert with nothing
Nothing, but it is definitely the freest place in the world.
Only by crossing the Badlands can you reach the distance.
As the network of Night City became weaker and weaker, he seemed to see a long transportation route from Night City to Mexico.
In the end, he occupied a piece of cyberspace by himself, and the distance from the Night City network became a cyber desert.
This small piece of cyberspace is composed of missile sensors and controllers
He can feel every slight change in wind speed, trajectory, and speed. His consciousness merges with the missile and breaks through the sky.
He can't see anything, only the complicated ballistic calculations are left, but he seems to see Atlanta
If you want to say the beginning, that's where the world begins.
The missile reached the highest point and began to dive.
He suddenly found V's voice in the database.
[V: Lille? ]
Such complex emotions were sensed by him through the negative energy, provoking his sensor.
Lille suddenly remembered that in addition to calculating the trajectory, he also had a job:
Reshaping the soul.
