Chapter 124: Onlookers

[Mr. Li Ang, I accept your induction task. ]

After thinking for a moment, Batmos immediately locked his target on the transcendental AI "Duchess" in the Russian network area.

The character of the Duchess is very much like that of an innocent little girl. She likes crowded places and sometimes even goes to other network areas.

Judging from the character weaknesses exposed by the Duchess, it must be much easier for Batmos to find the access point of this transcendental AI than to find Europa.

After all, even Batmos, the god of hackers, has only had a chance to meet Europa, a nearly omniscient transcendental AI.

In that extremely accidental meeting, the conversation between the two did not even exceed three sentences, and Batmos knew very little about Europa.

After weighing the pros and cons, it is still easier to catch the transcendental AI Duchess in the Russian network area than other transcendental AIs.

Soon, after Leon reached a cooperation agreement with Bartmos, Miriam finally got her own cooperation plan.

What she wanted most was the valuable data information of the roaming AI. As for controlling the thoughts of the company's employees, the more the better.

If it is impossible to control the thoughts of employees on a large scale, it is also possible to control the main backbone members of the company.

Of course, the premise is that the means of controlling the thoughts of employees must be done cleanly and neatly, and symptoms like Congressman Jefferson cannot appear.

"Ms. Miriam, I have no intention of asking about the body possession transaction you reached with the roaming AI, but if you need this service, our LA company can provide you with the best convenience."

Before Miriam could be happy for two seconds, Leon's next words made her good mood heavy again.

"However, the number of places for the operation to help the wandering AI return to the human body is quite limited. At present, I will only open the quota for you to 10 people, and each person will have to pay 10 million euros for the operation."

"So I hope you can carefully choose the right candidates and don't regret it halfway."

"Of course, if you think this offer is too expensive, you can also ask Mr. Blue Eyes to help you, or Arasaka Company, but I guess Arasaka's offer is about the same."

The reason why Li Ang dared to make such an expensive offer is mainly because he accurately hit the pain point of Ye's Company. Mr. Blue Eyes' AI brainwashing technology is not up to standard and the sequelae are too great.

And Arasaka's soul killer technology can also achieve a function similar to possession, but their offer is not much cheaper than what Li Ang proposed.

In a comprehensive comparison, the only disadvantage of LA's service may be that it is expensive, but as long as it can achieve perfect mind control, it is worth it for Miriam!

After thinking about it, Miriam Knight nodded and agreed to the offer made by Leon: "Okay, Mr. Leon, I will arrange the candidate as soon as possible."

"At that time, it will be up to your LA company!"

Spending 100 million euros to get 10 absolutely loyal core members of the company's executives, as well as other companies' internal confidential information, Miriam still thinks this deal is worth it.

Watching Leon and Miriam formally reach a cooperative relationship, V, who was silent throughout the whole process, was in a very chaotic and complicated mood at the moment.

This kind of interest exchange that willfully manipulates the human soul is like the Yama in hell, feasting on the human flesh and blood on the plate.

And as a bystander, he can't do anything!

'Johnny, what do you think about the outcome of this matter? '

V has become accustomed to asking Johnny Silverhand about his views on some events. Sometimes it feels uncomfortable to face things that he can't do anything about alone.

[Heh! How else can I look at it? This world is so fucked up. It is better to lock the souls of Ye's employees in the matrix than to let Miriam, the bitch, do whatever she wants. 】

The virtual figure of Johnny Silverhand flashed between Leon and Miriam. Wearing black sunglasses and looking defiant, he snorted coldly:

[Look at the increasingly haggard face of Congressman Jefferson. I am really afraid that he will die on the way to work one day. Afterwards, the forensic doctor examined his brain and found only a bunch of inexplicable AI data. 】

[Then write a report saying: The patient died of sudden death, and then it's gone. Miriam, the bitch, will continue to persecute employees. 】

Johnny Silverhand, who has long seen through the dirty face of the company, said in a calm tone, but with some helplessness:

[V, I tried to challenge the order system established by the company, but I failed in the end. Everything I did was just an insignificant tickle to the company. 】

【The Arasaka Tower is destroyed. A taller and bigger Arasaka Tower can be rebuilt in less than three months. The only thing I can do now is to watch LA compete with these companies silently. 】

【After all, you have also seen that LA treats its employees as human beings at least in Watson. To change all this, it is not enough to rely on personal strength. 】

【……】

Just when V wanted to say something more to Johnny, the cooperation between Leon and Yeshi Company and Bartmos was officially completed. Since the matter has been discussed, everyone should withdraw.

For example, Yeshi Company wants to use AI to control employees' thoughts. Now Li Ang really can't interfere in other people's internal affairs. The only thing he can do is to choose a better life script for these employees who enter the matrix.

When LA Company draws out the perfect clone technology later, it will ask these human souls who enter the matrix whether they want to come out and start a new life.

However, Li Ang dares to bet that more than 80% of these people who enter the matrix will continue to stay in the matrix. After all, it is really painful to be born as a human in this cyber world.

It may be better to shine and heat the server in the matrix than to come out and continue to work like a cow or a horse.

"V, it seems that you have not been idle during my absence in the company. You are involved in this matter."

"You are quite good at choosing jobs."

As Li Ang left the conference hall of Yeshi Company's headquarters, he joked to V who followed closely behind.

After being said by Li Ang, V was a little embarrassed. He just wanted to make a little money, but he didn't expect that he would be involved in such a company insider.

If V had known that things would be so complicated and troublesome, he might as well just do some random things to deal with gang members. The commissioned tasks would at most be just a few small tasks.

How could he be so uncomfortable like now!

"Mr. Leon, what will happen to Congressman Jefferson next? Will he be arranged into the matrix?" V, who couldn't help his curiosity, asked Leon.

To be honest, during the time he was in contact with Congressman Jefferson, V felt that this congressman was actually a good person, but it was a pity that good people often didn't get good rewards in Night City.
