The midday sun is dazzling and venomous, especially in an area with extremely sparse greenery like the Badlands. The blazing sunlight is enough to make an ordinary person standing on the flat ground start sweating within a minute.
Lin Mo was no exception. The sweat from the high-intensity battle and repeated use of the speed component had soaked his clothes.
After executing Adam Hammer, he didn't even have the strength to lift the pistol.
"What's up, kid, you should be fine, can you stand up?"
A burly figure blocked the sunlight and cast a dark shadow. Lin Mo looked up and saw several figures walking slowly towards this side.
Jack, who was walking at the front, had a hearty smile on his face and stretched out his hand towards Lin Mo who was sitting on the ground, as if he wanted to give him a hand.
Others looked at the steel skeleton on the side with shocked eyes, unable to believe that Lin Mo had successfully "single-killed" Adam Hammer.
However, except for V, who still had a "shock my mother" expression that he had never seen before, the others quickly calmed down despite being shocked.
After all, they were always with Lin Mo, so they were already accustomed to such events that were beyond their comprehension.
Lin Mo smiled helplessly, weakly slapped Jack's palm away, and said in a joking tone:
"Don't think that everyone sitting on the ground needs support. Maybe others don't even have the strength to stand up? Especially for people with physical injuries, moving the other person at will will only cause secondary injuries."
Jack obviously had not thought about this problem. He touched his head in embarrassment and muttered in disbelief: "There is such a thing...but doesn't your boy look quite strong?"
The other people also looked over with caring eyes. Mann, Beichuan Hao and David all wanted to lift Lin Mo up.
"I have a stretcher in the car." The driver Falco also added.
"Seeing is not necessarily believing." Lin Mo shook his head, took a deep breath, and then stood up reluctantly with his hands on the ground.
He looked at his injuries. Fortunately, there were no serious wounds. Most of them were burns, shrapnel scratches, and small wounds caused by inevitable small bumps in long battles.
The most serious injury was still the punch from Adam's heavy hammer.
This is also normal. Although his physical protection is not weak, and biological protective skin is implanted in his body. Strictly speaking, it cannot be said to be "high attack and low defense", but facing an opponent of the level of Adam Heavy Hammer, No matter how strong the enemy's defense is, it will be dwarfed by comparison.
Therefore, this also means that during the battle, he must not bear too many injuries, otherwise once his condition declines, he will be the one who dies in the end.
"Just apply some topical medicine to these wounds later. Now let's clean up the battlefield first." Lin Mo patted the sand and dust on his body and spoke in a slightly weak voice.
Jack laughed a few times, put his hands in his trouser pockets, glanced helplessly at the messy battlefield, and said with a little helplessness:
"Our original intention for this robbery was to get the prosthetic King Kong, but this transport convoy was obviously a cover. Now there are no traces of the prosthetic body."
"Hey, don't say that. Even if there is no prosthetic King Kong, just picking up the trophies left by the two company fleets is a very rich job." Mann retorted disapprovingly, looking at With the broken armed vehicles surrounding him, he finally showed a philistine smile and couldn't help but rub his hands:
"Lin Mo, if you are okay, I will lead everyone to pick up the things first. The battle just now did not help much, so let us help with this small matter."
In the previous battle between Lin Mo and Adam Hammer, they served as insurance for this operation and should have provided immediate support when Lin Mo needed it.
However, until Adam was chopped into a skeleton with a heavy hammer, Lin Mo didn't call them over to help...
On this mission, to a certain extent, they just stood on the sidelines and watched a show.
However, there was nothing that could be done about it, because from the beginning, Lin Mo had planned to fight Adam Hammer alone, and they could only play on the sidelines.
"Well, you guys go over first. Kitagawa Hao and Jack are staying. I have something to talk to them about." Lin Mo glanced at Mann, nodded towards him, then stretched out his hand and pressed it on the nerve groove. A chip inside popped out.
He walked up to Kitagawa Hiroshi and handed the chip to him. The latter took the chip with understanding and put it carefully in his pocket.
"By the way, the remains of Adam's Hammer need to be moved back by car. Compared with the rebellious King Kong, his steel body made by Arasaka Company is more valuable for research." Lin Mo suddenly remembered this and turned around to tell him Several people from Mann were killed.
Mann twitched the corners of his mouth, stretched out his fingers to point to the steel fragments scattered around that were chopped off by Lin Mo with his sword, and asked in a tangled tone:
"all?"
"Yes, all of them." Lin Mo nodded, and immediately his eyes fell on V, who was like an invisible man at the back of the team. Seeing her somewhat reserved posture that did not fit in with the team, he couldn't help but smile and gestured to Mann. road:
"By the way, I brought our Miss V with me. As a participant, she should also enjoy the victory process."
Mann grinned and suddenly turned his head to look at V, who was a little overwhelmed. The latter obviously didn't expect that she could still go to the battlefield to pick up trash. It was obvious that she was just here to make soy sauce.
"Are you sure? But I can't help you much." V asked in a daze.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!
"Hey, look at what you said. We didn't help either. Now you just need to take all the trophies. It's all yours. Cleaning up the scene is considered a help." Mann Kang He said generously:
"This is our way of doing things, you will get used to it in the future."
At this time, Lin Mo also walked over slowly and smiled warmly:
"We don't have much time to stay here. Support troops from Arasaka or Military Technology may come at any time. You can earn whatever items you bring with you. Besides, you also participated in the operation and took the risk, so you don't have to feel that you are outsider."
v looked at Lin Mo, still confused as if he had never experienced anything like this before.
She is used to making a living in a bad land. If she had been in family operations before, the trophies she got would basically belong to the family collectively. How can it be like now, where you can just take whatever you pick up?
However, V, who was a little eager in his heart, did not reject this kind offer after all.
She thanked them and followed Mann and others to collect various items left on the battlefield.
After they all left, only Lin Mo, Beichuan Hao and Jack remained.
"After this operation, we have completely broken up with Arasaka... and may even add military technology. What do you two think about this?" Lin Mo asked the two of them. .
He picked up the black unicorn from the ground, shook off the fine sand stained on the sword, wiped it clean and put it into the scabbard.
Kitagawa Hao and Jack looked at each other, and they both saw doubts in each other's eyes. Neither of them could guess the purpose of Lin Mo's inquiry.
After thinking about it, it was Jack who finally expressed his opinion first:
"If you really want to fight with these two companies, then the Valentino Gang and the forces at my disposal can help you, but if you ask me what I think, I personally prefer to avoid the limelight. , after all, these two companies combined...I am afraid no one in this world can afford the revenge of the two companies..."
Kitagawa Hao followed closely and said: "My opinion is not important. No matter what you want to do, Mr. Lin, the entire Tiger Claw Gang can serve you!"
Lin Mo nodded, indicating that he already knew, but did not say anything to the two people's speeches. He just stared calmly at the steel skeleton kneeling on the ground. The burning flames on the wreckage were already blown by the yellow sand. become weak.
After a long time, he said in a deep voice:
"What I want to do, purely from the original intention, is not too noble... Just like dealing with Adam's Hammer this time, it is only a part of my expectation, so none of you need to take action, Enron Just enjoy the victory."
"But one thing is for sure. At some point in the future, when it comes to the final stage of the plan, I will need all of your help. At that time, it will no longer be my solo show, and everyone will have their own responsibilities."
Jack and Kitagawa Hao's expressions changed slightly, both of them heard the deep meaning of Lin Mo's words.
Since it is a plan for everyone to participate, with Lin Mo's temperament, this will definitely no longer be as simple as one or two companies.
...Arasaka and military technology are probably just part of the plan!
Lin Mo continued:
"After this operation, I will choose to keep a low profile for a while. After all, there is a high probability that there will not be another heavyweight like Adam Hammer in the future, and similar major events will be difficult to encounter... and during this period I just have someone to talk to here."
"Who?" Jack asked tentatively.
"Arasaka Yorinobu." Lin Mo didn't show off:
"But this matter needs to be considered in the long run. You don't need to ask any more questions. With his status, it is not easy to get in touch with him. During this period, you two should train the newcomer well for me. , leave any entrusted tasks to her to handle alone, even if there is no task, you two have to find it for me, and never let her have a free day!"
"...You mean Ms. V?" Beichuan Hao twitched the corner of his mouth, and suddenly felt pity for this girl who had just come from the country.
When she first came to Night City, she was clearly arranged by Lin Jun. She didn't know whether to say she was lucky or unlucky.
"Well, maybe even she herself doesn't know how high her potential is, so what we have to do is force her to tap into her potential, give her a bunch of tasks and let her handle them, and while accumulating experience, we can also She can grow, but at the same time, she cannot be passive and slow down... I leave this matter to you." Lin Mo said.
"Don't worry, Jack and I will take care of it." Kitagawa Hiroshi immediately agreed and dragged Jack into the water.
Although Jack was also confused, he finally nodded and accepted the task.
