Chapter 732: Remote Countryside

[Johnny: What? The world's youngest doctor, the chairman and founder of the multinational Atlas Group, the Doctor of Destruction who split the United States? ! ”]

[Johnny: I want to play with a girl! Find me a girl quickly! 】

[Lille: Are you sick? 】

[Johnny: I'm going to be afraid! 】

As Leal returned to the Marvel world and began to scan the intelligence and information recently entered by the automatic crawler and his subordinates into the master control, Johnny also followed suit.

Seeing this, Johnny lost control of his facial expression!

No, buddy, you're not a street kid?

But take a closer look: Lille is really not someone who was born rich. In his youth, he was affected by a traffic accident involving an illegal transport vehicle and became disabled. After becoming disabled, he relied on his mother and father to take care of him. As a result, his father survived while taking care of him. Overworked.

After waking up, he faced debts and physical disabilities, as well as the threat of his home being annexed by unscrupulous developers, and even fighting broke out in the neighborhood.

Although the intensity of this battle is much lower than that of Night City, Johnny is not a fool. He even learned some of the rationality in Lear's head:

In a city where the law is basically functioning normally, and in a city where the worst kind of fighting involves using submachine guns to fight, chasing people in a car on the street is already adding intensity to the city.

Night City is not a crime-ridden place from the beginning. Generally speaking, when a place where people live and work in peace and contentment suddenly starts stealing and extorting with impunity, the next stage will be robbery, armed robbery, and home invasion;

In order to determine who grabs what territory, it will turn into street fights and gun battles.

However, the deterioration of New York gradually improved after Lille acted like a fool and organized owners' associations and workers' mutual aid associations.

Johnny felt a tearing feeling in his head: Leal was definitely the most powerful criminal in Night City, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to break into Arasaka's database and abduct him.

Even from the perspective of the Transformers world, he is definitely not the flawless "good guy" in most movies.

If you just look at the news in the Marvel world, Nari is really that kind of important person who is extremely capable but also extremely cruel, and it is difficult to evaluate whether he is good or bad.

However, Johnny can also see the history of Lille's fortune, Lille's "glorious deeds".

It was so glorious that Johnny felt a little ashamed of himself. He thought that everyone was a good buddies on the street, with nothing but guns and medicine in their hands, not to mention respecting the neighbors who were timid and cowardly, and honestly "obeying the law" and so on.

What nonsense!

[Johnny: Tell me, a super wanted criminal and sociopath like you is actually a good guy here? ! 】

[Johnny: I don’t believe it, you must have a dark room dedicated to dealing with fear. 】

Lille has a black streak.

[Lille: You mean, people like me have to be afraid? 】

[Johnny: Stop pretending. If I don’t laugh at you, I will join you. Take us there quickly. 】

[Lille: Get out of here. 】

The data that Johnny read was already the previous one. In fact, after Lille arrived in Latveria, he was directly preparing to enter other worlds.

After closing the "pussy sector" reserved for Johnny, the world in front of him became much cleaner.

Lille's current base is located in a mountain. The interior is like a castle, supported by a high-strength alloy frame. Exoskeletons and tools are used to dig walls and pipes directly into the rock and soil. The construction makes little noise and is well concealed.

When Lille walked out of the workshop, there were two Latvian guards guarding the door:

Like all Latvians, long-term lack of food, clothing and warmth has left them with more or less chronic diseases or disabilities. One of these two people is missing a large piece of his face, and the entire abdomen of the other is replaced with a prosthetic body. .

The limbs, mainly the fingers, can be replaced to varying degrees, leaving convenient interfaces for the exoskeleton.

The level of this kind of prosthetic body is considered to be a medium to high level in the cyberpunk world——

From the perspective of modern people, the cyberpunk world is a world overflowing with prosthetic bodies, but in fact, in the middle and high-level society, prosthetic body modification is very restrained, especially military prosthetic modification.

Johnny believed more and more, here, he must be that kind of capitalist that he is very familiar with but unfamiliar with!

But when Leal walked out of the room, Johnny secretly glanced at the sensor, and what he saw in the eyes of the two guards was a bit strange:

Although the two guards looked very professional and motionless, with almost no fluctuations in their eyes, Johnny felt that these two guards really regarded this job as a...

Treat it as a job with a strong sense of mission, even mixed with a part of fanaticism!

It almost looks like him playing a guitar.

[Johnny: I underestimated you, Xiaolizi. I didn’t expect you to follow Arasaka’s tricks. You did a lot of brainwashing for them, right? 】

A small line of text appeared in front of Leer's eyes.

Lille didn't say anything and just walked straight outside——

This secret base has all the occupations necessary to maintain life: gardeners, farmers, skilled workers, construction workers, security guards, researchers

It’s just that gardeners cultivate genetically modified animals and plants, farmers cultivate soil from Wakanda, skilled workers operate engineering robots, and construction workers use exoskeletons.

All data will be transferred to the research institute for data analysis and optimization. Unfortunately, the level of scientific research in Latvia is not high. The main work is just ordinary operations research and optimization, and collecting experimental data.

All these equipments are familiar to Johnny, but what is unfamiliar is the harmonious atmosphere here, the atmosphere that is tense but not complaining all day long, full of energy but not so suffocating

Is there really anyone who can enjoy work so much?

Just thinking about it, Lille's sensitive sensor allows Johnny to see the workers who are repairing the pipeline talking through the wall:

"Hey, Philip, let's take a class on advanced mechanical principles after get off work?"

"Sure, I just thought of some weird technical problems recently."

They are even discussing taking classes after work! And they are still saying it with a smile!

Johnny, an uneducated second-rate guy, a super rebellious youth who skipped classes when he was a child, didn't work when he grew up, deserted the army, and returned home to be anti-social, can't understand what is happening in front of him:

What does it mean? Why do people like to work? Why do they like to study? Why can they still say it with a smile?

[Johnny: Your brainwashing skills are really too strong. Maybe you are the one I need to hit]

[Lille: Haha, some uneducated people are getting anxious. 】

Bang.

When Lille walked through the passage, the voices of conversation stopped.

This stop made Johnny feel that he was fine: the situation was even more outrageous than he had imagined, because he was surprised to find that not only the security guards in this place were highly cyborgized!

Even the production staff had to undergo such a high degree of cyborgization? It must be Lille, the terrible capitalist, who alienated these workers, these poor people

This must prove that Lille must be a rich bastard. After all, what employee would not be afraid of the boss?

What worker would not hate the leader?

What.

Before he could finish thinking secretly, Johnny suddenly saw the expressions of these Latvian people who stopped communicating looking at Lille. It was no longer something that could be summarized in one or two sentences.

If it was just admiration, it might be that the weak admired the strong; if it was just gratitude, it might be that Lille first took away their land, forced them to have no way out and then brainwashed them; if it was just obedience, it might be that they had become accustomed to a life without resistance and suppressed themselves from questioning the unfair system.

Or maybe it's just fear, dependence, and love.

In short, as long as you look at it with this kind of thinking, Johnny can always make up ten thousand reasons.

But the way the Latvian people looked at Lille was too complicated.

It was so complicated that Johnny could hardly deceive himself. These people were brainwashed, deceived, and controlled by power.

Walking out of the fortress and out of the mountain, the quiet mountain village stood quietly at the foot of the mountain. There, people on vacation were singing and dancing together in accordance with the local customs of Latvia-

Although they have the most advanced technology and can theoretically enjoy the most extreme technological entertainment, they chose this method with the least technological content, without Mewtwo, no drugs, and no fully automatic masturbation cups.

They are indeed living people who chose their own leaders.

This even made Johnny inexplicably jealous

[Lille: You said that music has a soul. What do you think of the music here? ]

[Johnny: I don’t know what they are doing in this remote place.]

[Johnny: But the song is good. ]
