"What could it be? Military weapons? Chemical weapons? It can't be bacterial weapons, right?" Feng Xue mentally assessed the lower limit of this group of assassins, and quietly reached out and touched the squeeze driver to ensure that the transformation could be completed at any time.
But at this moment, the [Acuity] from the Assassin tag suddenly triggered, and a sense of crisis stimulated his brain. The crazy beating blood vessels made him realize something in an instant.
And in the live broadcast room, the commentator suddenly stopped chattering and said in a slightly dull tone:
"It's strange. This position was already the best sniper point before. Why was there no attack? Wait, what did Mr. Augustus want to do? Oh, no, he lost his display terminal!"
Looking at the gold-rimmed glasses that George Augustus threw into the air without hesitation, the host said loudly in disbelief:
"We all know that Mr. Augustus was able to escape the recent assassinations because, in addition to his strong body, he also had an excellent ballistic prediction system that we don't know where it came from. But now he has actually lost the display terminal!"
"Oh, wait, that terminal..."
"boom!"
Suddenly, a handful of sparks burst out from the gold-rimmed glasses focused by the drone. After a very short silence, the host immediately let go and shouted:
"Hacker! It's a hacker attack! The assassin actually used a hacker attack to cause the display terminal's battery to instantly overload and explode. Although this explosion is not powerful enough to kill people, if it explodes close to the head, it will at least cause a concussion." It might even hurt your eyeballs. This is really insidious!
"But Mr. Augustus's terminal hardware should be a new model of Constantine Company, and it can actually break through its firewall. No wonder the assassin wants to hide his identity! Now Constantine's stock is going to fall!
"But how will Mr. Augustus face the current situation? I remember that in his physical examination report, it seems that he did not install a built-in personal terminal, right? No, it should be better to be uneasy at this time, after all Those devices installed inside the skull cannot be thrown away like glasses!
"Will Gaming Company has opened a handicap for this confrontation. Interested viewers can place bets through the betting hotline. Now Mr. Augustus' survival odds have soared to the highest point in history. Don't miss it, oh , No, I am not inducing everyone to bet, so don’t blame me if you make money or lose money...
"Ah! It's moving, the sniper is taking aim! Oh, the muzzle brake used on this gun seems to have been modified... Oh, my God, I know, this is intended to use PTV22 high-penetrating noise-reducing bullets, often Audiences who play shooting games should be familiar with it, right? Yes, this is the famous Laoliu Bullet, a limited-use weapon that claims that one magazine can make the whole audience have no gaming experience!
"It's really prudent to use this kind of weapon after destroying the display terminal! The director gave me an aerial view. Yes, everyone, look, Mr. Augustus is now about 1,500 meters away from the sniper, and he is still Continuing to move, at this distance, even if the old six bullets fly slowly, there is only less than two seconds to react from the time the shot is fired to the time it hits, and he obviously hasn't noticed it yet...
"Oh, he turned his head! The distance was more than 1,500 meters, and while riding a motorcycle at high speed, he actually turned his head to look at the sniper!
“Oh my gosh, I don’t know if this is a coincidence, but judging from the sniper’s movements, the eyes are already on target!
“The trigger is pulled, drone, give me a close-up of the bullet!
"Deflected? No, he dodged! In the split-screen playback, we can see that he made an obvious Z-shaped maneuver after turning back. There is no doubt that Mr. Augustus has the ability to observe a thousand and five The vision of a sniper from a hundred meters away!
"Director! Close-up of face!
"Okay, while the locomotive is moving, we can clearly see the state of Mr. Augustus's eyes. Regardless of the iris texture, reflection level, and blood vessel distribution, I can take responsibility for saying that this is absolutely It’s correct to the naked eye!
"How did he do it? Is it the new stimulant from Rhine Life? Or the brain-computer chip from the Loken water tank? Although the medical examination report given by the notary showed that Mr. Augustus did not have any prosthetic modifications on his body, but With all due respect, this kind of performance is obviously not something that a mortal body can achieve!
"Oh, we'll talk about this topic later. We can see that while they were entangled with the snipers, the war bishops had blocked the nearby exits, and Mr. Augustus's current route...
"Four units, there are actually four War Bishop exoskeleton warriors!
“At this point I hope desperately that Mr. Augustus is watching our live broadcast so he at least knows where to turn.
"Unfortunately, his display terminal was destroyed before. Audiences who failed to buy Augustus can open the champagne, but viewers who bought Survival should not rush to vote. Maybe there will be a turning point?
"We are about to meet in ten seconds. Life or death depends on whether he will turn at this intersection! Oh, what an insidious sniper. Mr. Augustus has lost the chance to turn, 4, 3, 2... …coming!"
…
Feng Xue listened to the passionate explanation reverberating from the Kamen Rider's armor, and suddenly jumped up from the motorcycle. The motorcycle at full power lost control of the rider and crashed into the alley. Before she could rush out, she was already drowned in flames. Amidst the smoke and fire caused by the bomb explosion.
With strong fingers, a small hook grasped the bulge on the wall of the building, and the bombardment from the speeding locomotive was instantly eliminated.
He stepped lightly on the wall, grabbed a cable and swung directly out.
If it were a simple pursuit, this would be enough for him to escape from the road blockers, but under the surveillance of several drones and snipers, his every move was also controlled by the pursuers.
With a burst of explosions, two red exoskeletons with a height of more than three meters entered Feng Xue's field of vision with the assistance of jet packs. The rockets that had been deployed from the magazine were already ignited at this time.
However, Augustus, who should have chosen to escape, did not change his direction. Instead, he let go directly, and using the inertia, he rushed directly towards the two war bishop exoskeletons.
A total of twelve rockets were ignited at this moment, streaking white smoke pillars in the air towards the approaching Augustus.
But in such a somewhat tragic atmosphere, Mr. Augustus seemed to be cheating, making a turning movement in the air like a gymnast, and passed through the rocket system with a slight difference. The firepower network accurately landed on the head of a War Bishop.
"Please eat pineapple!"
In the all-round shooting of the drone lens, countless viewers watched the gentleman with silky and smooth movements take out a grenade from his trouser pocket, pulled out the ring, and stuck it on the War Bishop's neck. Stuff this thing in.
"Fuck, how could he use his body to move the exoskeleton helmet?!"
Regarding why the sentence for assassinating the mayor is low...
Please note, this is not the mayor, this is a candidate for mayor.
In the final analysis, the so-called mayoral race is nothing more than a national talent show called a campaign.
Just think of dealing with assassination as a platform for candidates to show their strength and skills. If you die, it only means that you don't have enough background, skills, and talents.
In addition, in the cyberpunk worldview, evidence is just a decoration, and the real power lies in the hands of capital. Therefore, the greater the benefit, the lower the sentencing. On the contrary, if something has no benefit or may threaten capital, the sentencing will soar.
Assassinating a mayoral candidate can bring a lot of benefits, so the sentencing is low, it's that simple.
