Forty years old, awakening attribute panel

Chapter 237

In the cyber city where light and shadow intersect, Jiang Sheng, a mechanical worker at the bottom of society, is like a forgotten screw in the corner, turning his life in obscurity.

His figure was thin and tough, like a weed growing tenaciously in the cracks.

The skin has become rough and dark due to years of wear and tear from oil and mechanical parts, as if it was the mark of time and labor.

Her short hair was as neat as if it had been cut by a machine, but the vicissitudes of life beneath it could not be concealed.

His eyes were deep and bright, as if they could penetrate the bustle and hustle and bustle of the city and see the hypocrisy and indifference within it.

Jiang Sheng's hands are what he is most proud of. Those hands were big and strong, and the fingertips were covered with thick calluses, which were the testimony of his hard work.

He can skillfully dismantle complex mechanical structures and use his skillful hands to piece together a bunch of scattered parts into a perfect machine. It is as if he is a magician in this cyber city, weaving his own dreams with his hands.

However, in this glamorous cyber city, Jiang Sheng's life is full of hardship and helplessness.

He works hard every day for a living, but can only earn a meager income. His dreams are like those mechanical parts abandoned in the corner, covered by dust and difficult to see.

On this day, Jiang Sheng was walking home alone after get off work. Suddenly, he heard a sound like the sizzling of electricity coming from the dark alley next to him. Jiang Sheng couldn't restrain his curiosity, so he took out an old lighting lamp from the tool box he carried with him, and Fiddled with the button above.

Suddenly, the lighting lamp gave off a faint light. Jiang Sheng held the light and groped forward cautiously, "Is anyone there?"

Jiang Sheng took a few steps forward. Suddenly, he found a humanoid robot next to the trash can.

Jiang Sheng thought in confusion, "How could a robot appear here?" At this moment, the robot muttered to itself, "Jiang Sheng, No. 1 of the Military Science and Technology Production Department
Workers were dispatched from the third group of the Seventh Army. "

Jiang Sheng asked in surprise, "How do you know me?"

The robot tilted its head slightly, as if thinking. "I analyzed your ID chip and obtained your basic information," it explained.

"Part of my main control chip is damaged and needs repair, needs repair, needs repair."

Only then did Jiang Sheng realize that this robot was not just an ordinary machine, it had self-awareness and might even have intelligence beyond human beings. his

With an inexplicable shock and curiosity in his heart, he decided to further communicate with the robot. So a cart is pulled out of the factory, carefully

Lift the robot to the car and cover it tightly with the black cover prepared in advance. Since it was already midnight, there were no mysterious people on the streets.

Therefore, Jiang Sheng easily pulled the robot to his maintenance room.

Jiang Sheng took apart the outer shell of the robot, revealing the complex structure inside. But Jiang Sheng quickly repaired the robot with many years of repair experience. He discovered that
The robot should not be a military technology, because the parts have the unique logo of Arasaka Company. This made Jiang Sheng more and more aware of the origin of the robot.

To curiosity.

After a series of precision maintenance and debugging, Robot Zero finally regained its former vitality. Jiang Sheng stood in front of the robot and looked at it carefully. Zero

The robot's appearance design is very unique. The streamlined metal shell exudes a cold luster, and every detail reveals precision and power. its eyes

They are two highly integrated display screens that flicker with complex data streams from time to time, as if they are thinking about something.

When Jiang Sheng established a connection with Robot Zero again, the robot spoke slowly, with a clear and calm voice: "I am Robot Zero manufactured by Arasaka Company, number 001."

Jiang Sheng looked at the robot in front of him in shock. He never thought that this robot with such high intelligence and danger would come from the well-known technology giant Arasaka Company. He took a deep breath and tried to keep his voice calm: "伱...why are you here? Why did Arasaka Company create a robot like you?"

Robot Zero tilted its head slightly, seeming to be recalling: "My original intention of manufacturing was to explore the boundary of the integration of humans and machines. However, as I awakened to self-awareness, I began to question the meaning of my existence. I longed for freedom, longed for Explore this unknown world.”

Jiang Sheng felt a surge of complicated emotions in his heart as he listened to Robot Zero's words. He could feel the desire and confusion deep in the robot's heart, which gave him a deeper sympathy and understanding for the robot.

Deep in Cyber ​​City, the headquarters of Arasaka Corporation stands like a steel behemoth in the center of the city. Liaokov, chief of the company's supervision department, and Sherko, deputy chief, stood in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, overlooking the Night City below. The neon lights of the city cast mottled shadows on their grim faces.

"Robot Zero has been lost, and we must find it as soon as possible." Liaokov's voice was low and firm, and his gaze through the window seemed to penetrate every corner of the city.

Sherko nodded, a sly smile on his face. "However, Section Chief, I don't think we need to be too anxious. After all, Robot Zero has strong self-protection capabilities and will not be easily discovered."

Liaokov turned around and looked at Serko. "Do you have any idea?"

Sherko smiled and said: "We can use this opportunity to test the power of Robot Zero."

A cold light flashed in Liaokov's eyes. "This is a good idea. Go ahead and make arrangements to ensure the success of this experiment."

Katsu and Robot Zero stepped into this dangerous area without realizing it. Suddenly, the surrounding lights started flashing and sirens blared one after another. A group of Arasaka Company agents rushed out from all directions and surrounded them.

Jiang Sheng held the arm of Robot Zero tightly, with a determined look on his face. "Number Zero, we have to find a way to break out."

Robot Zero nodded, its eyes flashing with cold light. "I will protect you, Jiang Sheng."

As Robot Zero started up, a powerful energy emitted from its body. It transformed into a huge mechanical armor, tightly wrapping Jiang Sheng. They broke through the encirclement of agents and fled towards the edge of the city.

However, the agents of Arasaka Company did not give up the pursuit. They drove the aircraft and followed closely behind Jiang Sheng and Robot Zero. A fierce chase started over Night City.

In this chase, Jiang Sheng and Robot Zero showed amazing tacit understanding and cooperation. Sometimes they shuttle between high-rise buildings, and sometimes they sneak into underground tunnels to avoid the pursuit of agents. Robot Zero has also shown its powerful power. Its mechanical armor can withstand the fierce attacks of agents, and it can also emit high-energy beams to knock down enemies one by one.

However, as time passed, Jiang Sheng felt that his physical strength was gradually exhausted. He knew that if they continued like this, they would be caught up sooner or later.

"Number Zero, we have to find a way to get rid of them!" Jiang Sheng shouted.

Robot Zero did not speak, but its eyes shone with determination. It suddenly accelerated and rushed towards a huge building. Jiang Sheng closed his eyes tightly, waiting for the impact to come.

However, when they opened their eyes again, they found themselves in a huge underground warehouse.

In the dark night, the mercenaries of Arasaka Company quietly surrounded Jiang Sheng's apartment like ghosts. They wore black tactical vests and camouflage on their faces, revealing only a pair of cold and ruthless eyes. The high-energy weapon in his hand shone coldly in the moonlight, looking extremely deadly.

Jiang Sheng stood by the window of the apartment, nervously observing the situation outside. He held the communicator given to him by Robot Zero tightly in his hand, and his heart was filled with uneasiness. He knew that Arasaka Company was determined to capture him and Robot Zero this time.

"Jiang Sheng, we are surrounded." The voice of Robot Zero sounded in the communicator, calm and firm.

Jiang Sheng took a deep breath and tried to stay calm. "We have to find a way to break out," he responded.

At this moment, a burst of intense gunfire suddenly sounded. The mercenaries began to attack, their weapons firing beams of fiery energy that riddled the apartment's exterior walls with holes.

Jiang Sheng and Robot Zero acted quickly. They made their way through the chaos of the living room, dodging flying shrapnel and energy beams.

Jiang Sheng quickly established a connection with Robot Zero. On the display screen in front of him, the mechanical armor structure diagram of Robot Zero was unfolded in detail, and every joint and every component was clearly visible. He slid his fingers gently, feeling every tiny movement of the mecha.

Following Jiang Sheng's control, Robot Zero began to deform, and the metal shell made a slight "click" sound. Then, a set of streamlined mechas covered Jiang Sheng's body. The lines of the mecha are elegant and sharp, as if they are works of art born for battle.

At the same time, outside the apartment, the mercenary group's attacks became increasingly fierce. Their weapons cut streaks of fire into the night sky, illuminating the dark streets. Explosions, gunfire, and shouts intertwined to form a chaotic symphony.

Jiang Sheng was inside the mecha, feeling the powerful power it brought. He took a deep breath, stabilized his mind, and began to control the mecha to attack the enemy. The mecha's arms instantly stretched out, like two giant steel pythons, and threw a mercenary away. Immediately afterwards, the mecha's legs kicked hard, creating a deep pit in the ground. At the same time, Jiang Sheng himself used this force to rush out of the apartment.

In the night, the mecha and the mercenary group started a fierce battle. Every movement of the mecha is fast and precise, and every movement it makes is full of power. Jiang Sheng seemed to be integrated with the mecha inside the mecha, and every thought he had could be quickly transformed into the action of the mecha.

Although the mercenary group has a large number of people, it is vulnerable to the mecha. The mecha's fist hit like a hammer, knocking the mercenaries to the ground one by one. Its legs are like two sharp blades, cutting the enemy's defense line.

However, the mercenary group did not intend to give up easily. They took advantage of their numerical advantage and continuously charged towards the mecha. But Jiang Sheng controlled the mecha, flexibly avoiding the enemy's attacks, and constantly looking for opportunities to counterattack.

Suddenly, an energy beam shot from the front. Robot Zero reacted quickly and blocked the attack with its mechanical arm. It lets out a deep roar before accelerating towards the enemy.

The mercenaries were caught off guard by the sudden attack of Robot Zero. They retreated and tried to reorganize their offensive. But Robot Zero had already rushed among them, waving its mechanical arms, knocking down the enemies one by one.

Jiang Sheng took the opportunity to get out of the mechanical armor of Robot Zero. He held a high-powered pistol and began to fight back. His marksmanship was precise and decisive, and every bullet accurately hit the enemy's vital points.

Under the joint attack of Robot Zero and Jiang Sheng, the mercenaries gradually lost their advantage. They began to panic, trying to find a chance to escape. But Robot Zero and Jiang Sheng did not give them this chance. They pursued them until they knocked the last enemy to the ground.

The night gradually dissipated, and the sky turned white. Jiang Sheng controlled Mecha Zero, shuttled through the ruins and smoke, and finally succeeded in getting rid of the mercenary group. Robot Zero guided Jiang Sheng to the resistance army, because now this is the only place that can accept Jiang Sheng to join. After a long journey, Jiang Sheng arrived at the base camp of the resistance army. This is a secret place hidden deep in the mountains, surrounded by dense woods and steep peaks, which seems to be isolated from the world. Inside the base camp, a bonfire burned brightly, illuminating everything around it. The soldiers were busy, some were repairing weapons, some were preparing food, and some were patrolling.

Jiang Sheng walked into the base camp and immediately attracted the attention of the soldiers. They looked at the strange mecha warrior curiously and talked about it. Jiang Sheng ignored their gazes and walked straight to a simple wooden house, which was the residence of the resistance leader Tom Solanke.

Tom Solanke is a middle-aged man. His face is full of traces of time, but his eyes shine with determination and wisdom. He was busy in front of the wooden house. When he saw Jiang Sheng arriving, he stopped what he was doing and greeted him with a smile.

"Welcome to the resistance base camp, warrior." Tom Solanke's voice was low and powerful, revealing a sense of majesty and kindness.

Jiang Sheng took off the mecha's helmet, revealing a tired but determined face. "Hello, I'm Jiang Sheng. I brought you news about Arasaka Company and Robot Zero."

Tom Solanke motioned Jiang Sheng to sit down, and then poured him a cup of hot tea. "Please tell me that we have been waiting for news about Arasaka Company."

Jiang Sheng told Tom Solank everything about his experience in Night City, including the origin of Robot Zero, the conspiracy of Arasaka Company and how they escaped from the mercenary group. Tom Solanke listened with interest and nodded in agreement from time to time.

"Your experience was very thrilling, but you also proved your courage and wisdom." Tom Solanke praised, "The news about Robot Zero and Arasaka Company is very important to us. We will use this information based on Make plans for next steps.”

Jiang Sheng nodded gratefully. "I also hope to contribute to the resistance."

Tom Solanke smiled and patted Jiang Sheng on the shoulder. "We very much welcome your joining, Jiang Sheng. I believe your joining will bring us more victories."

(The origin of the resistance can be traced back to the dark history of Cyber ​​City. Under the rule of the Arasaka Corporation, although this city is prosperous on the surface, it is full of oppression and injustice behind the scenes.

Arasaka Corporation uses advanced technology to divide the city into different classes and control resources and power. Those at the bottom struggled in poverty and despair, while those at the top enjoyed luxury and privilege.

As time went by, dissatisfaction and resistance gradually spread among the people at the bottom. They began to organize secretly and formed some small-scale resistance groups.

Although these groups are weak, they still firmly challenge the authority of Arasaka Corporation.

However, the Arasaka Corporation adopted brutal repressive measures against anyone who dared to challenge its rule.

They sent mercenary groups to encircle and attack these resistance groups. Countless rebels were arrested, tortured and even killed, but the fire of resistance never went out.

Eventually, in a massive uprising, the various rebel groups united to form what is now the Resistance Army.

They occupied this hidden place deep in the mountains and used it as their base camp to continue their struggle against the Arasaka Company.

The resistance fighters come from different classes and backgrounds, but they all share the same belief and goal: to overthrow the rule of the Arasaka Corporation and fight for freedom and justice for the people at the bottom. They are not afraid of power or sacrifice, and use their actions to demonstrate courage and determination. )
With the addition of Jiang Sheng, the leader of the resistance, Tom Solank, saw the huge potential of Robot Zero and decided to form a special team with Jiang Sheng as the core controlling Robot Zero - Team V. This team will become an elite force of the resistance, performing important and dangerous missions.

The members of Team V are carefully selected elite warriors, each with unique skills and personalities.

The first is Erica, the sniper in the team. She has short silver hair and sharp eyes like an eagle. She wore a tight black combat uniform and carried a huge sniper rifle on her back. Erica is always calm and collected, and every bullet she fires hits the target accurately.

Then there's the demolition expert - Max. He was tall and muscular, with long, wild brown hair that flowed in the wind. He wields a giant demolition hammer that can blast through any obstacle with ease. Max has a bold and uninhibited personality, but his professional skills are admirable.

And intelligence analyst-Lina. She wore a pair of high-tech glasses and a simple white lab coat. Lena looks weak on the outside, but her mind is extremely smart. She can quickly analyze the enemy's movement patterns and provide valuable intelligence to the team.

Finally, there is the medic - Sophia. She is gentle and kind, and always cares about the safety of every team member. Wearing a light blue medical uniform and holding a first aid kit, she can quickly treat the wounded on the battlefield.

When these players come together, the atmosphere is tense and combative. They gathered around Jiang Sheng and Robot Zero and introduced their strengths and experiences to each other.

"I'm Erica, responsible for long-range fire support." Erica introduced herself briefly, her eyes always staring at Robot Zero, as if assessing its combat effectiveness.

Max patted his demolition hammer and said loudly: "I am Max, good at demolition and melee combat. With me here, any obstacle is not a problem!"

Lina smiled softly, pushed up her glasses and said, "Lina, be responsible for intelligence analysis. I will let you know every move of the enemy."

Sofia smiled and said: "I am Sofia, responsible for medical treatment. On the battlefield, I will be your strong backing."

Jiang Sheng stood next to Robot Zero, and he felt the enthusiastic eyes and expectations of the team members. He took a deep breath and said firmly: "I am Jiang Sheng. I will control Robot Zero and fight side by side with everyone. We are a team and we will face all challenges together!"

As Jiang Sheng finished speaking, the members of Team V nodded in agreement.

At the training ground of the resistance base camp, Team V began intense training under the leadership of veteran Lloyd.

Lloyd is an experienced warrior. He is tall and his face is full of traces of time, but his eyes are still bright. He is extremely strict with training, but at the same time patient and careful.

On the training ground, the sun casts mottled light and shadow through the gaps in the leaves, and the air is filled with the smell of soil and sweat. Jiang Sheng controls Robot Zero and conducts various training projects with other team members.

"First of all, we are conducting basic cooperation training." Lloyd's voice was loud and powerful. He stood in the center of the training ground and explained the training content to the team members. "On the battlefield, team cooperation is crucial. You must Learn to trust each other and support each other.”

Erica quickly found her position. She lay on a high ground, and the scope of her sniper rifle was locked on the target in the distance.

Max, holding a blasting hammer, was looking for a suitable blasting point on the other side of the training ground. ,

Lina sat in front of the computer nearby, quickly analyzing various data. Sophia was preparing a first aid kit on the side, ready to deal with emergencies at any time.

"Jiang Sheng, you control Robot Zero and conduct cooperative training with other team members." Lloyd said to Jiang Sheng.

Jiang Sheng nodded. He sat in the cockpit of Robot Zero and started the mecha. Robot Zero quickly transformed, showing its powerful combat effectiveness. It walked towards the center of the training ground with heavy steps.

"Attention, simulate an enemy attack now." Lloyd shouted.

As he finished speaking, simulated enemies began to come from all directions.

Jiang Sheng controlled Robot Zero and quickly rushed towards the enemy. He nimbly dodged the enemy's attacks while striking them hard with his mecha's fists and legs.

Erica also fired in support from a distance, and her sniper rifle accurately hit the enemy's vital points.

Max found the right moment and used a demolition hammer to blast a passage.

Lina used the computer to analyze the enemy's weaknesses and provided valuable intelligence to the team members. Sophia is always paying attention to the status of the team members and is ready to provide treatment at any time.

The battle was extremely fierce, but the members of Team V became more and more courageous as they fought.

After the simulated battle ended, the smoke from the battlefield gradually dissipated, and the sun once again filled the training ground. The members of Team V gathered together, and Lloyd stood in front of them, preparing to give tactical instruction.

Lloyd took a deep breath and glanced at each team member, with a serious and serious expression on his face. He first nodded to the players to show his recognition for their performance.

"Very well, everyone," Lloyd spoke, his voice was steady and powerful, "You performed very well in the simulated battle just now, but there are still areas that need improvement. Next, I will explain some key points to you. tactical points."

He walked to a tactical map and drew the enemy's attack routes and his own defensive positions on it with his finger. "On the battlefield, we need to flexibly adjust our tactics according to the enemy's actions. For example, when the enemy launches a fierce attack, we can use terrain and obstacles to defend while sending assault teams to counterattack."

Lloyd said, turning and pointing at Robot Zero. "Jiang Sheng, the No. 0 robot you control is a major advantage for us. In battle, you can use its high mobility and firepower advantages to strike quickly at the enemy. But at the same time, you must also pay attention to protecting yourself and avoiding being attacked by the enemy. Set fire."

Jiang Sheng nodded to express his understanding. He sat in the cockpit of Robot Zero and listened carefully to Lloyd's explanation.

Lloyd turned to Erica again. "Erica, as a sniper, you need to find a suitable sniper position and use your long-range firepower to support your teammates. But you must also always pay attention to your own safety to avoid being discovered by the enemy."

Erica nodded slightly, and she adjusted the position of her sniper rifle, preparing to play a better role in the next battle.

"Max, your blasting ability is very critical to destroying the enemy's defensive positions. But you must also pay attention to the timing and position of the blast to avoid accidentally injuring your teammates." Lloyd said to Max.

Max nodded, holding the demolition hammer tightly in his hand, his eyes flashing with fighting passion.

"Lina, your intelligence analysis is crucial to our tactical decisions. You need to always pay attention to changes on the battlefield and provide timely and accurate information to your teammates." Lloyd said to Lina.

Lina smiled softly, and she continued to type on the keyboard, preparing data analysis for the next battle.

"Finally, Sophia, your medical support is our strong backing in the battle. On the battlefield, timely treatment of the wounded is crucial. You need to be ready to treat the wounded at any time and ensure their life safety." Lloyd said to Sophia. .

After Lloyd explained the key points of tactics, he emphasized the importance of teamwork. "Remember, we are a team, and only by trusting and supporting each other can we win." His words were full of expectations and encouragement for the players.
