Chapter 532 David’s new job
Liel is not sure what Tony’s personal assistant is here to do, but he has a more urgent matter now:
The Internet Monitoring commissioned David to investigate what they are doing The agents tracked down by Badlands need to be resolved now.
David’s car was paralyzed on the first section of the extreme metal track. There were still almost thirty kilometers away from Night City, and there was a sandstorm. They were probably looking for abandoned houses on the spot. Lived.
So they should still be in the bad land, which is why Bryce suggested that the network supervisor entrust David: in a sense, they know everything, and they are also somewhat famous among the mercenaries. Well, at least he's not a newbie.
The bad soil is quite far away from the nuclear explosion point. The instantaneous high-intensity electromagnetic pulse will be attenuated by the distance, leaving only the geomagnetic disturbance caused by the high-energy particle flow. These effects will also be affected by the dusty weather in the bad soil. reduce.
In other words, David should have been almost unaffected by this electromagnetic pulse. In their field of vision, a fireball suddenly appeared in Night City, and then the whole city went dark——
This time the whole city is really dark.
All communications with the city disappeared, and there was only a faint noise left on the network. It was the static electricity generated by the friction of small stones mixed in the storm, which interfered with the communication signals.
On the road outside the Badlands, two Mackinaws, shaking violently like tractors, churned slowly forward, perhaps even slower than pedaling a tricycle.
"That's good!"
Pyrrha wore a pair of scanning goggles to examine the wreckage left behind by the battle, and her long mechanical prosthetic limbs picked up pieces of firearms from the road like a gibbon.
I have to say that as long as you are brave, you can make a fortune by picking up rags tonight
Pyrrha looked at the core accelerating magnetic track of the Achilles technical rifle in hand and thought: This thing It can be sold for 50 euros per repair.
Rebecca slapped her brother on the head, and the huge mechanical prosthesis grabbed a tire from the ground——
Then the brake disc on it was removed. It seemed to be made of carbon ceramics and the damage was controllable. It was much more valuable than the thing Pyrrha picked up.
David calculated in his mind the value of the rags he picked up, and his heart was filled with excitement:
No one said picking up rags was so profitable?
“You’re still laughing!” Lucy gave David a slap in the face, hating that iron could never become steel, “Is the junk you picked up worth the money to repair the car!”
David felt guilty. He said: "Absolutely. If you are lucky, you can make a little profit. Probably."
To be honest, as mercenaries, their team's financial status is pretty good and their development is very fast.
A few months ago, Mann had a second-hand sports car in the team. There were no high-quality guns in the firearms field, either a Lexington or a small pistol like the Liberty. The prosthetics were even more barren, except for Mann. En has a high-strength combat prosthetic body, and others like Mao don't.
In this regard, Mann's combat robots are still the kind that have been installed with pirated software. They may malfunction at any time, and even the standby state is not trustworthy.
Now that there are two Mackinaws that can withstand heavy machine guns, and a heavy machine gun, Mann's prosthetic body no longer suffers from the old problem of labor pains at any time, and the nerve inflammation has also been significantly reduced. Although there is no shooting projectile launcher, but too clear-headed.
David is also basically able to freely use the Dinaras Anvistan Type 3 in his spine, and the team's combat options instantly become diverse:
In previous battles, Mann and Dorio basically took the lead. When they couldn't hold it any longer, they would take out the projectile launcher and fire a shot, with others assisting them.
It’s different now. Vehicles, advanced prosthetics, and heavy weapons
are all available.
Of course, the car must be repaired first.
Kakakakakaka——
"Don't worry." David chuckled, "I feel like it's really fast, as long as I do one more order."
[呲——]
Qi, the two hackers in the team Wei and Lucy received communication requests at the same time. The signal was quite strong and undisguised.
[Network monitoring communication, you have been locked by network monitoring, please do not take radical measures. 】
One short line of text caused the entire team to lose its lively atmosphere. Just because Lille can talk and laugh with the company doesn't mean they can too. Every word and every data packet from the company is something they need to treat with caution.
The two hackers were in danger because they discovered that their wireless cyber modulators were starting to heat up!
Network surveillance has many communication technologies that wild hackers cannot handle, and wild hackers also know this.
Wireless hacking by wild hackers often relies on information gaps: I know the vulnerability in your device or software, and then attack this vulnerability.
The golem is the tool they use to hack. The more devices the writer hacks, the wider the attack power and attack surface are. Therefore, hacking is a profession that tests knowledge and skill levels.
In essence, our equipment will not be much different - compared with the company's.
Network surveillance, they have the most comprehensive database and the smartest brains physically. More importantly, they often work with dimensionality reduction attacks:
Some super frequencies The directional transmitter can directly burn the equipment of these wild hackers from the hardware, without the need for so-called "network attack and defense".
Most of the time, military equipment crushes street equipment across dimensions. No street boy would bet on whether the equipment used by the company reaches that level.
Everyone was sweating. The two Mackinaws made a tractor-like sound on the road and moved forward slowly, waiting for more information to appear in the HUD.
【.】
【We are hunting down a special person named Peter Feldheimer, and he should be in the Badlands right now. 】
【Find him and take him to the Network Supervision Office. 】
[The entrustment reward is one hundred thousand euros. 】
Just when everyone in the team was a little undecided, another line of small words appeared below the HUD
[Answer, tell them you need a new car and a middleman to bridge the gap. 】
David suddenly noticed a familiar aura: This is big brother!
Although he didn’t know how Lille did it and sent them information under the eyes of the network supervisor, David suddenly had an idea after Lille’s reminder.
[David: We don’t cooperate directly with the company. Let’s borrow your frequency band and I’ll bring in an intermediary. 】
[Network Monitoring: Not this time. 】
[David: We need equipment, cars, and weapons. I would be happy if you could send them.
I can guarantee that the contents of the commission will not be leaked, but we need a middleman to help us supply supplies. You should know this, old captain of Santo Domingo, right?
If you use your line to communicate, you don’t have to worry about confidentiality, right? 】
【Internet Monitoring: We will keep an eye on you, remember, keep it confidential. 】
【Relay communication channel is open】
[Work hard. I want to know what information Peter Feldheimer has. The car and equipment will be part of the reward. 】
David didn’t know how to reply to Lille’s message, so he nodded sharply.
Looking at Lucy next to her, she was sweating even more: "David, do you know that people who take this kind of job usually don't end well?"
"People say that servants There’s nothing good about the military career, but didn’t I drop out of school and start doing this?
And after completing this job, I will be closer to my goal, don’t worry, I.”
David looked to the sky with confidence.
The moon, he will go up to it sooner or later.
