Chapter 755 Rumors
[Since the head-on confrontation between the Burger King criminal group and the company's regular army, they disappeared in Night City. 】
[Also disappeared along with Dog Town: this town was the core of the battlefield that day. Military technology officer Kurt Hansen died in the explosion, another victim of the evil Burger King criminal group. 】
【Those armed terrorists who were once so domineering suddenly disappeared with their disappearance, as if they had never appeared. 】
[Within a week, Night City Municipal Government openly stated that they would never rely on the services of Arasaka or Military Technology. The company was not reliable and they needed their own city guards. 】
[The city guard will be in charge of a little-known police officer. The name of this new city guard in Night City is: Kurtis Hunterson. 】
[According to Mayor Ryan, the police officer has served in the NCPD for his seventh year and has participated in the re-suppression of riots in Taiping Prefecture, and has extensive experience in facing armed thugs. 】
【This turmoil caused Arasaka Group and Military Technology to begin to consider whether they should adjust their policies towards Night City. 】
【But we also know that Night City has shown new vitality after this turmoil: Mackinac Universal Vehicle Company is the representative. 】
“Night City has become prosperous after this wave.” Elliot said with emotion, “If you ask me, Burger King is really a gift from God to Night City.
This group of thugs used force to open a gap in the company's control, but violence cannot build a city. Their departure gave Night City real room for development. ”
Elliot said with emotion the content outside the storage: Night City has a new industry.
Obviously, the technology left by Lille will be left behind Although the industry will definitely be affected by the interruption of the cross-dimensional production network, they have overcome this impact -
The efficiency may be lower and the quality may even be inferior, but after all, there is an industry
It seems that Ryan and Peralez are still following the route planned for them by Lille
Or maybe they don’t dare not follow it.
“New industries, new trade objects, this is simply a new life! Night City began to export their new products to Mexico, such as Mackinac pickup trucks!”
“.This big The pickup truck is awesome, but it’s a pity that it’s too difficult to transport a vehicle across the ocean. The cost of transporting it is probably worth the freight.”
Elliot expressed regret: Who doesn’t want to own a car that can fly everything. A super pickup truck?
But unfortunately, vehicles are consumer goods without much technical content, or the cars he can afford are industrial products without much technical content.
The condition for transoceanic transportation is that the profit must be enough to cover various costs, and for a car measured in tons to be transported from Night City to Folkestone using a transoceanic floating cargo ship, the freight is unimaginably high
It was unimaginable for him, so he definitely couldn't buy Mackinac Company's entry-level pickup truck. As for the legendary floating pickup truck and riot-proof armored vehicle, it was beyond the reach of a bastard like him.
I really envy the people of Night City.
This part of the content does not seem to be recorded on the memory, and Elliot relied purely on dictation.
“Night City’s trade routes seem to rely on a group of wanderers. You know better than me. These people drive pickup trucks and large trucks to transport things in the wasteland.”
"It was along the way that a big problem occurred."
[. After the disaster, Night City struggled to support itself. In order to survive and reduce costs, they had to give up hiring Arasaka and military personnel. Technology, instead hiring wanderers who roam the Badlands for transportation. 】
【These wanderers are lawless and have clashed with the company's regular troops on the border many times this year, and even took the initiative to attack the company's garrison. 】
【At the same time, mysterious battles took place in multiple cities, settlements and military bases along the route. 】
【In the city, company employees were assassinated, company fleets were robbed, and a military base was even attacked and vehicles stolen. 】
[It is reported that New America and Military Technology are already mobilizing troops to move to the US-Mexico border. 】
“A lot of people died!” Elliot said enthusiastically, “The most outrageous thing is what happened in Mexico City: I found some information outside the wall!
There is a creature The technology executives seemed to have evacuated from Night City and went to Mexico City for a business trip. They stayed in the best hotels in the area.
This is the original word from the grapevine: 'The whole street was blocked. , the person who did it was simply a madman, a crazy one, his hands were full of heavy firepower, and the sound of the machine gun firing was like thunder.'
'The float car took off in less than half a minute. When I came out, I thought he was so awesome, but one time I met him, he smashed a car! '
‘Oh my god, it really exploded! I watched that man smash the hovercar engine like a meteor! ’
‘Not only did they smash it, they also snatched one, shot it all the way, and rushed directly into the upper floors of the hotel! ’
‘My darling, everyone in the SSC is dumbfounded by the death of all the people along the way. I have never seen this scene before. I must watch it all! ''I chased him all the way, and I saw the biotechnology executive was set on fire and thrown down, and died miserably.'"
Elliott said He acted as if he was the witness. The more he talked, the more excited he became, and his face turned red again.
After finishing speaking, he took a sip of the drink and breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Ha--it's a pity that you can only see this scene in the city. I guess the scene in that bad land is much more exciting than this, but the company itself will definitely not let itself be beaten. You have to hold your head and run around like a mouse."
Lil listened and listened. Although he had no expression to express, if he had a body, he would definitely frown:
This sounds awesome, It probably looks pretty awesome.
But if it was really an assassination, then they should not have been chased from the slums to the target location. It was obvious that they had exposed their location before taking action, and that was why they were chased from the slums to the rich area.
In fact, this plan was executed very stumblingly, and it would not work if it was passed purely by brute force.
Feeling Lear's emotions, Johnny suddenly became interested:
[Johnny: Isn't this your son? Such a bad temper? 】
[Johnny: Dude, I’m really curious, what type of girl are you, but it sounds like she’s a good girl. 】
Ignoring Johnny's teasing, Lille immediately focused on other information.
No matter what, it's useless to think about this. The most important thing is how to get back to Night City.
The data reading continued, and Lille quickly found the recent report.
[At the same time, Night City City Sports Academy has been established, and the most popular young football player Matt is about to transfer to a European club.]
Matt will go to Europe to play football, to be honest. , Lille was a little surprised, because he felt that Matt only needed to play good football in America.
Going to Europe can indeed advertise Night City well, but it is also more dangerous.
You only need to catch up with Matt, and the rest will be easy.
“I heard that the youngster Matt uses a new type of prosthetic body, and Night City is already trying to mass-produce related prosthetic equipment. , I came to Europe this time just to open up sales.”
“These news are not mentioned much in the documentary, but I have channels.”
[Johnny: Watch movies over the wall. ? 】
“That’s just because I suddenly wanted to try it!” Elliot blushed again.
[Johnny: Urgent again, why do you, a fat man, blush after saying just a few words? 】
“It’s normal for hackers to be curious.” Elliott said with some regret, “I’ve been using my helmet to climb over the wall to see things that network surveillance and the EU don’t want us to see
Wall Foreigners are much older and can still receive this information."
[Liel: I want to correct your idea: the wall you climbed over was most likely deliberately asked by the network administrator to climb over it. 】
“Huh?” Elliot was stunned, “What do you mean?”
[Lille: It means that every time you use the helmet to "climb over the wall", the things you do and the knowledge you read are all set by them and are under their control. 】
[Liel: That helmet was deliberately exiled on the black market by network surveillance. 】
[Lille: You think you are pursuing freedom by climbing over the wall, pursuing the truth that the network regulators and the EU do not want you to know, but in fact, every time you climb over the wall, they are watching. 】
If it wasn’t Riel and Muramasa who hacked in this time, the matter would have been exposed long ago.
For Lille, noticing this kind of thing is easy, but for Elliot, it is not.
These words were like a sledgehammer, making Elliot's head buzz.
He thought he had found a way to quietly hide from the Internet censors, search for information, and get in touch with the "real world".
It turned out that everything was designed?
