The mission target is an exotic gang.
The client had the goods taken away from him, so he issued a commission and the Edge Runner Firm took over. However, recent intelligence revealed that the gang was involved in raising monsters, which caused the mercenary station's judgment on the level of this commission to fluctuate.
That's why Mann's action plan changed later.
The team that checks the spot is not one. The Edge Runner Agency is a small mercenary agency with no more than ten people, but it can also be divided into two groups.
But no matter how you look at it, the lineup on Omo's side is slightly weak.
David, a mercenary in recovery, Rebecca, a veteran in fire cover positioning, and Omer, who is a special consultant to the firm and whose "combat power level is ambiguous" from one perspective...
Compared with the trio of Mann, Lucy, and Dorio on the other side who have been getting used to it for a long time and have been more accustomed to this place for several months, the lineup here has some obvious deficiencies.
Even if there is an auxiliary staff here called 'Qi Wei' who acts as a liaison, it does not add points to the concept of 'stability'.
Because when Omo listened to the conversation between the three people, he always felt that it was a bit inconsistent.
"David, you go toward the Third Ring Road. There isn't much view there." "Okay...Thanks, Qiwei." "...No need for this."
The jerky reporting sound as if the radio wave was unstable, the obviously stiffer thank you, and the response that was sure to have mixed emotions - all revealed the story.
And when it came to Rebecca, it was: "Yes, that's what we should do. Qiwei, isn't there any new news?" - such careless words, as if they didn't care at all, but the tone was quite a bit... Very serious.
This was in clear contrast to the happy self-expression she had shown before, and it seemed like she was deliberately changing the subject.
Wonderful, wonderful...
In the small team of four, everyone except himself at the beginning had his own conflicts and entanglements. Omer began to suspect that Mann was a melon farmer, and he was inserted here just to sell these 'tailor-made' melons.
What is tailor-made?
If it were someone else, he might not be able to detect something special from the communication performance of these people so efficiently. Only someone who is very observant and subconsciously tries to figure out the thoughts of others would be able to detect the atmosphere of these people so vigilantly. of subtlety.
But this completely misses the point. Aren’t we all here to perform a mission?
And if you do this, it will make me look superfluous.
Oh...I am indeed redundant, so that's okay.
When he thought that he was just a monster consultant, Omer relaxed a little.
He no longer even paid attention to the conversation between the three people on the electronic communication channel.
——The dialogue is also evolving from a commissioned explanation to a casual chat.
It is obvious that compared to the method of fully investigating all the information and then making a decision before taking action, the style of the edge runner is obviously more casual and free:
Understand the basic information and make other adjustments accordingly.
This kind of plan is either a no-name cannon fodder, or it is really capable. I believe it is the latter.
Although the upper limit of the combat power of the foreign land in the Realm Gate Zone is very high, the lower limit of its actual strength is actually quite low, so low that it does not change much from the outside world.
After all, what distinguishes the inside and outside is not the actual difference in combat effectiveness, but the contrast in ethos.
There will also be ordinary people here, not as good as the ordinary people like Ma Niang in junior high school, but they are not as gentle as they appear on the surface - just from the fact that there are gang organizations here, it can be seen that the superficial laws do not give those gangs room to exist.
Although the surface boundary area can't be said to be stagnant water, it can only be said to be a relatively lake surface. In this foreign land, there are tides and eddies every day.
There is no shortage of speculators who come here looking for opportunities and excitement. They don't like the peaceful and gentle lifestyle, and are more accustomed to conflicts, frictions and even bloodshed, so they gather in foreign lands. Even a seemingly ordinary resident may turn around and When they are immersed in violence, their violence is still within the permitted range, but it is natural to usher in greater violence.
For Jiemen District, representing the foreign land on the inside is more of a cultural display area:
[Showing the gray culture of another world]
It is precisely because of this freedom and danger that most mercenaries have been to foreign lands. They also know that this place is not as exaggeratedly dangerous as ordinary people think, and they don't even know how they died after going there.
Society has never been composed only of the upper class. As long as there are enough people in any area, there will be classification. There are naturally many middle and lower classes in foreign lands.
As long as the level of the commission you encounter is appropriate, even if the combat power is not at the top level, you can still complete it with your skills - Omo thinks that firms like Edge Runner without high-end combat power can steadily improve their credibility and qualifications, which is probably the case. With this ability.
It's just that when it comes to things like monsters, the commission classification can't be said to be stable.
Mann and the others were probably considering whether to give up the commission when they set out on this mission, and the opinion of monster consultant Ormer would be a large criterion for judgment.
The pressure is quite high... Omo, who was thinking this, was looking at the window of the armored vehicle.
Today's foreign land is cloudy, making the skyscrapers flashing outside the window look even more gorgeous.
And when the armored vehicle drove to the overpass, the neon-adhered reinforced concrete forest closed into a wall, like a flowing waterfall.
The alien world is far more colorful than the surface. The most colorful buildings here are corporate buildings. To a certain extent, it is in line with the style of the Night City where David and the others live, but the similarity is only in the style of painting. The laws here are only slightly broader and allow quite a bit of gray area, but they still don't tolerate true black.
The thick bulletproof glass of the armored vehicle blocks the transmission of light, and the special anti-peep reflective film dilutes the strong light, leaving only the clear outline of the building outside the window and the thick shape of the stone piers on the overpass.
I couldn't even see clearly what was being projected on the light screen. I could only vaguely judge that it was a demi-human host based on its outline. However, the outline next to the host seemed to be distorted like a fire scene, and it looked extremely eye-catching.
This made him open the terminal and open the light screen, connecting to the external network to search for a wave of accident news.
[Here, here, the wanted criminal] The electronic vampire is trying to attract the attention of his adopted son.
After moving the link bar that Morrison 'raised' to the side as an option, and then moving the sighting news of several well-known horse racing girls from the Sirius Symbol and the Sky God Palace to the option column, Omer tried searching for Jinguqiao again. , but there are a few more web pages than the last search, but when you click on them, that's all.
In comparison, the information on the wanted criminal who was fished out by Morrison and who fed Bizer with drugs was clear. He even knew which city area the criminal was fleeing to, and the movements of the terrorist search mobile team and the special service team were able to understand the progress of the pursuit.
Compared with the Tianmen City security siege, which is slightly behind, and it is still necessary to estimate the specific public itinerary, there is an official live broadcast here. Rows of heavily armed actors are active on the live broadcast screen, and there are many citizens above who are giving rewards. I left messages with SC, and they were all praise fans with a positive attitude. I couldn’t tell whether it was an internal campaign or if they were really supported.
As for the ongoing fire accident... it seems that some familiar figures and photos are also being reported. The following is a large description describing the huge property losses caused by a fight between a logistics company and gangs. Rhode Island Pharmaceutical Company announced Take responsibility for this.
So how does this company look like a pharmaceutical company?
The reality completely conforms to the description of 'memory information' - this kind of thing should make him feel at ease, but it only makes people feel complicated when it matches to such an extent.
But in this case... Omer looked through the contact records of the past few days and found the contact information of Penguin Logistics from the logistics intermediary's information.
He became a little distracted when he remembered that not long ago he thought there was no interaction and ignored it.
"Omo, we're here, get ready. Rebecca and I are leaving first." "Hey, stop playing with the terminal and get ready~"
In fact, Omer, who had anticipated it when the car started to slow down, just kept silent and paid attention to both sides. It seemed that he was distracted, so that David said hello and was teased by Rebecca.
The mechanical prosthetic hand, which was too large compared to his body size, seemed to want to pat his shoulder like David, but he subconsciously prepared to avoid it but stopped subjectively.
The prosthetic hand is about the same size as Mann's hand. If you avoid it, you will be targeted at some point in the future, but if you respond to it——
——"You are quite sensible! Boy, I will protect you from now on!"
She would show such a pure and happy smile.
Thanks to the other party's talkativeness when communicating with David, Omo even built up a personality model of the other party. The worst sounds are inexplicable, and the better sounds are weird. The decision is usually based on appearance, considering that the other party is quite cute. Girls, so Omer prefers the latter.
That evaluation became eccentric, but also straightforward and righteous.
She probably left all her concealment to David, but she lacked any concealment in front of David, which was a bit of a cute contradiction.
Are you living in a youth comedy? David.
Omo thought so, and connected the communication of the two intelligence officers Qiwei who reminded him. The next second, the light screen showed a first-person perspective of fast parkour and climbing over a barbed wire fence.
Well, action teen comedy…
Omo changed his words in his heart.
[You should be able to see it clearly, right? I synchronized the optic nerve signal from David's prosthetic eye to your screen. Flick the button on the side to switch to Rebecca. Of course, she may yell at you to stop looking. Her privacy awareness has improved a lot recently. 】
The woman named Qi Wei, a cyberhacker and intelligence officer, has a slightly tired and neutral voice, but she can still tell that she is a woman.
At this moment, she was different from the 'talkative' person she used to be when communicating with her teammates. A series of explanations suggested that she had teaching experience.
She has experienced many conflicts with her teammates that are difficult to let go of, but the main conflict is with David. Rebecca seems to not care about it anymore. In addition, the suspected teaching style remains...
Omer listened and replied: [It is very clear.
But I still hope that Miss Rebecca can restrain herself from looking at private places]
[Maybe, but if she says she wants to protect you, just call her by name, and she will treat you better that way]
[She had an older brother? 】
[Yes, but it is completely opposite to your personality.] As an intelligence worker, he should not be surprised easily. Qiwei was not surprised by Omo's sudden conclusion. [Mann didn't ask you to come here just to make people happy. You solve her psychological problems, so be prepared first]
【What is the horse-eared monster...】
The hacker did not immediately respond to his words, which were more like talking to himself. Omer, who was still in the car, watched the gang members gradually zooming in and out on the screen.
They were approaching step by step, with airs of frivolous frivolity, mainly towards Rebecca beside David.
Homare hesitated, not switching his vision to Rebecca.
Three seconds later, the facts proved that he was right. David was still trying to negotiate and struggle, but Rebecca had already punched him directly, blood and teeth splashing together, which was particularly enchanting.
Even from David's onlooker's perspective, the impression is too violent.
【Um. The conclusion of our previous internal communication is: as long as you destroy enough, you can force the other party to release the monster, and then it’s time for you to work]
