Chapter 183 Red Ocher’s Past
“It was 2029, and Red Ocher was active in Texas, because there were many young people, and Adecado was still at its peak at that time, and its activities were very radical.
Cedric, Hector and Bowen were the three people who participated in the robbery at the same time.
The wolves once invited them, but they all rejected them. br>
Cedric has a bad temper, Bowen provides advice, and the two kill people like crazy. Hector has a stable temper and basically doesn’t focus on killing people, but focuses more on the mission goals. ”
Beside the fire, Neville watched the flames and told their story.
“In general, Cedric was the best at fighting and killed the most people, and I heard from him that he was quite happy to kill people at the time.
Bowen was the most insidious, and he killed the most people every time. He will only start to deal with the endgame when the fight is almost over. As for Hector, he always only focuses on the target. He will not kill anyone who is unnecessary.
As the three of them do more and more work. The prosthetic bodies they wore were becoming more and more powerful. Finally, they were dissatisfied with the junk prosthetics sold on the black market.
Bowen got the Ice Pick Golem in Mexico City, and the three of them were watching. Fucked several company employees - but Hector didn't think he should do that.
So one dark and stormy night, they robbed a company employee - I heard it was a tourist bus.
Icepick broke through the unfortunate guy's prosthetic system, and Hector had a disagreement with the other two: He just wanted to collect some ransom as entrusted.
Bowen encouraged Cedric to dismantle the guy's prosthetic body.
It was that time that the company noticed these three young people, who were becoming more and more famous. ”
David on the side listened with rapt attention.
He had been there when Cedric died, and it was the first time he had seen such a strong emotional impact.
He was curious about the story of this wanderer.
“With the new prosthetic body, Cedric became more and more powerful, and once even killed more than thirty drug dealers in the bad land by himself.
People are spreading rumors that there are people on the border. A one-eyed butcher who kills purely for the sake of killing. But since I can remember, I have never heard Cedric mention this matter until a few days ago, when he told me the truth:
< br>
The big reason why he has this name is Bowen, who has been helping him sell those murderous combat Mewtwos.
This is what he learned later. Bowen not only helped him buy prosthetics every time he went to the city, but also installed back doors on the prostheses. The money from Chaomeng's sales was used to go to some custom places.
But in short, during this period, there were many conflicts between the company and Adecado, and the old patriarch died unfortunately.
And at the end, Hector was chosen as the patriarch - Cedric didn't understand at that time why he didn't choose himself, who was more famous.
So he wanted to do a big job - Bowen found him this big job, robbing a valuable company fleet.
It is said that that cart of goods is worth three to four million euros. They are all brand-new goods. If you grab them once, you will eat them for a year.
How can you not do such a lucrative job? The young and energetic Cedric, with a large number of people who agreed with his leadership of the tribe, almost split the tribe, and planned the attack on his own. ”
A typical homeless story – it sounds like this.
David asked, “They succeeded?” "
Neville shook his head: "No, this is a trap. Bowen was caught by company employees in the city and was willing to betray the tribe.
Do you still remember the first company employee they snatched? This is where their friends come seeking revenge.
All the people Cedric brought were dead. He went crazy and killed everyone. He opened the carriage of the transport team, but it was full of garbage.
When he returned to the tribe, Bowen attacked him and burned down the camp - if Hector hadn't rushed to the scene with his people, all the remaining people would have been sold to human smugglers. "
Neville added some fuel and turned on the recorder on the desktop.
"This is the audio he left. ”
"I was too young at that time. I didn't understand what the old patriarch said. I was very angry. I didn't understand, why not me?
For the sake of the tribe, I killed so many people and robbed so many convoys. Every smuggler knows my name, and drug dealers are scared to death when they hear my name.
I am addicted to this pleasure, addicted to their whispers. Trembling, addicted to the feeling of driving bullets into the enemy's brain, chest, or anywhere else.
The old patriarch did not mistake me. I am an idiot, and I am just like that bastard Bowen.
I despise Adecado’s creed of not killing casually, just as Bowen despises the customs of our tribe.
At that time, I thought that he and I would be brothers on the same road. Since Red Ocher didn’t recognize me, I would go out and do it myself.
But Bowen is a bastard among bastards, and he thinks more: As early as when we first separated, he wanted to dominate the people in the tribe.
He is the one making all the money, so what happened to two bitches?
I hit him. I should have discovered it at that time. I. I should have discovered it. "
"Neville, to be honest, I have always thought you were too honest a boy. You just read those books all day long until.
You may have forgotten that when we were in Reno, you told me that this knowledge could help the tribe find water——
I suddenly thought of Hector from before, and what about me? From the beginning to the end, Bowen and I are the same kind of people, the same kind of idiots, and the same kind of scum. I thought that having a strong gun would solve all the problems. If I couldn’t kill one person, I would kill two. If I didn’t have enough, I would grab something. But in fact, they were all excuses. I was just addicted to that feeling!
But where do I stand in saying this? I just wish. I just wish. Fuck! I'm just comforting myself!
Damn, damn, damn! I went fucking crazy again, went crazy and killed people, and now I'm lying here like a loser——
Click. ”
The playback is over.
People were a little silent at the originally happy party, and only the sound of burning flames was left.
Neville poked the fire, Then he picked up a bottle of wine from the table.
"Although he always said this, he didn't cross the line like Ran Daokai did.
Of course, I am not qualified to forgive him on behalf of those victims.
Just as a tribe, we are here to see him off for the last journey. Whether it is to heaven or to hell, we have to walk the rest of the way on our own. ”
Alcohol was slowly sprinkled on the fire, and the flames were burning brightly.
People were thoughtful, each had their own thoughts, they all raised their glasses gently, and then drank the bitter Beer.
It’s not just a homeless problem.
A stressful living environment is like sea water, and people are victims of falling into the water.
I waved my arms and struggled hard again and again, just to cross the sea and breathe two breaths of fresh air.
People will always be addicted to the refreshing feeling of breaking through the water again and again. Over time, people seem to grab anything they can for a breath or two of air.
Violence is the easiest method to think of, but the result of endless violence is likely to be an irreparable tragedy.
And once they want to use some other means to solve the dilemma, they may be like Hector and be played around by those companies.
These problems are like balls of yarn wrapped together, mixed together, blocking people's heads and blocking their way to their ideal life.
The way out is like the coast that can never be seen, making people wonder if there is no such thing at all.
Jack put down the synthetic meat steak in his hand: "I want to go home."
Liel said: "It's almost, I can go back the day after tomorrow morning at the latest - thinking of Wells Did your wife tell you not to get involved in gangs?”
“Yeah, I might have been like this before”
V jumped off the demon lizard: "This story is really full of ups and downs.
I have really seen many people who sound high-sounding on their lips, but in fact have long been addicted to violence.
< br>However, some people who are addicted to violence may not be the direct perpetrators."
Liel nodded in agreement: "That is true, but in Night City, most people will personally participate. This process."
"Like us? Do you think we do it this way?"
"Of course not, uh. It seems a bit absolute to say this, but as long as the homeless people are getting better, we shouldn't be counted, right?"
V secretly glanced at Lille who was deep in thought.
Having been born on the streets, what other means of survival do she have besides violence?
But methods other than violence are indeed very attractive.
She has always worked alone because she didn’t want to be like those people. But without the adventure in Atlanta, where would she be?
V poked Lear: "Anyway, I'm used to using violence. You'd better grasp the direction, otherwise all the sins we have done will be on you."
"Okay, okay, I am. External brain, I'll think about it, don't worry about it."
"Huh? Why are you going?"
Liel waved his hand and walked towards the scrap pile——
< br>“Do what the external brain does.”
