Cyberpunk: From Dogville to Legend

Chapter 75 Training [Please continue reading]

【information】

[Lin Yue]: Hello, Nix asked me to contact you, saying you can help me with a technical issue with a chip, but I can't seem to get through to you on the phone... So, could you please reply?

【Cat】：（Auto-reply）o(=ェ=)m~Message received, coming right away!
Lin Yue scratched his head and deleted the other reminder message that he had already edited.

Is this what a shy newbie looks like? What made Nix judge that this hacker was introverted?
Who knew hackers could be so cute? I've learned something new.

The other side seemed quite busy. Lin Yue glanced at the chip in his hand and decided to first see how the team was using it.

After informing the entire team, Lin Yue went downstairs and sat on the holographic display platform next to the shooting range, waiting for them to come down. Unexpectedly, Rebecca was the first to run down. This girl usually hid in a black jacket, but today she wasn't wearing one—

Lin Yue felt a little embarrassed.

Isn't this not good?
Rebecca's arms have a sense of being both proportionate and exaggerated. Although gorilla arms are short, their diameter is like that of an adult's arm, which, combined with Rebecca's petite figure, creates a strong visual impact.

She's definitely a cybernetic loli.

"They're here! With my beloved little darling~" Rebecca touched the iron bladder and looked around. "Huh? Where are Mann and the others?"

"It's training, at least dress normally, okay?" Lin Yue held out his hand with a chip lying on it and laughed, "I'll show you some cutting-edge technology today. Try inserting this thing in."

Rebecca's strong mechanical arm took the chip from Lin Yue's hand, as if he was afraid she would crush it.

Rebecca then inserted the chip into the neural slot, her eyes lit up, and she began reading data.

"Oh! I know Lin Yue, is this a VR game?!"

Lin Yue sighed, "Where would I find the time to play games with you? This is a simulation chip given to me by a hacker. Try to see if you can connect it to your weapon and read its basic parameters."

Rebecca leaned casually against Lin Yue, fiddling with the chip's functions, muttering, "I call this Iron Gall, Iron Gall! Not Killing, tsk... This idiot doesn't know what he's talking about, Lin Yue."

Just as Lin Yue was speaking, the iron bladder in Rebecca's hand was raised...

Lin Yue was casually waiting for Rebecca to experience the game when he discovered that she was actually holding her big gun in her hand!
"Once the data reading is complete, you can put the gun down. You can think with your mind too; you don't need to hold it—"

Lin Yue hadn't finished speaking.

boom!
Just as Pila, who was lounging around with a cigarette dangling from upstairs, came down, a loud shotgun blast echoed through the empty training room!

"Holy crap!" Pila exclaimed in shock, dropping his cigarette. "What the hell?!"

Mann and Dorio, who were following closely behind, quickly pushed aside Pila, who was blocking their way, and found Rebecca scratching her head and looking embarrassed, and Lin Yue rubbing his hair helplessly in the distance.

“Once you’ve read the data, you won’t need a gun anymore. You can even do it without a gun, just by thinking.” Lin Yue took a deep breath and, like a good teacher, continued to teach Rebecca how to use the analog chip. This thing was said to be able to accommodate third-party network connections and enable the function of supervising practice.

Yes, Lin Yue needs to keep an eye on them; heaven knows what kind of mess they're making in there.

He looked up and saw that Mann and the others were all in place.

"Please sit down for a while, I'll finish talking to Rebecca about this."

As he spoke, Lin Yue lifted Rebecca up and placed her on the table next to him, showing her how to operate the machine until Rebecca's eyes began to flicker—similar to the state of a cyber hacker entering cyberspace.

"Is this some kind of analog chip?" Pila, being more knowledgeable, looked Rebecca up and down. "Oh dear, this stuff isn't easy to get. All the modules, chips, and integrated systems the company uses to train its private soldiers are products of the company's hackers and technical experts! Did you get this?" Lin Yue didn't answer, but in a strict sense, he was the one who got it.

"Does Mr. Rin mean we should train according to the company's soldier procedures?" Mann had some experience in this area. Born in the late 1930s, he had served in the New United States army, but at that time, the military didn't have such good equipment for ordinary soldiers. Generally, it was the company's elite agents and lone wolves who were intentionally trained that used this chip for training.

The advantage is that the training includes a series of skills such as shooting techniques, combat thinking, danger prediction and battlefield situation assessment, which are essential for individual tactical literacy. Combined with the company's physical enhancement and the addition of implants such as prosthetics, it is possible to quickly produce combat units with relatively strong combat capabilities.

"Pretty much." Lin Yue nodded. "But there's only one chip, so it's still quite troublesome for our team to use it together. That's why we found a hacker to modify it so that we can train together. Maybe we can even achieve VR simulation training like team-based combat!"

"By the way, there's no need to worry about the use of resources; it's all normal financial investment." Seemingly noticing Dorio's concerns, Lin Yue glanced at Dorio with a seemingly casual look.

Pila picked at his ear. "For someone like me who doesn't really enjoy playing ping-pong all the time, it's not as interesting as assembling materials."

Lin Yue crossed his arms, somewhat helplessly. Sometimes, Pila's death at the hands of cyber madmen was actually a sign of insufficient training.

The fact that Pila could put his arm around the shoulder of a crazy guy who was peeing on top of a shipping container shows just how talented this guy is.

"Then you can just rub it at home, you don't have to pay anything anyway," Lin Yue replied irritably.

Pila laughed heartily, "My little sister is spending money on me!"

Mann shook his head. "Pilar, what a disgrace, daring to bully Rebecca."

Dorothy was exasperated with Mann and Pila. "Alright, stop fooling around. Lin Yue, how long does it take to train this thing?"

Lin Yue looked at Rebecca, "If you want a quick course, it'll only take a few hours. If you want to learn more deeply, then you can practice on your own when you're not busy. Mann probably knows about physical training methods... As for martial arts, Dorio, do you know how to box?"

Dorio nodded, a confident smile on her face, showing off her muscular arms.

"Your arms haven't been modified, have they?" Lin Yue felt that according to the fitness system, it would take a lot of effort for a woman to achieve this size.

Dorothy's eyes lit up when she mentioned this. "I've received training as a professional athlete. Although our team doesn't train like the company soldiers, we still train our physical fitness and strength from time to time. Mann also teaches us some fighting techniques sometimes."

That's true; after all, Mann was a former soldier of the New United States.

Lin Yue felt that this team was still a good base! At least they had all the necessary skills, except for hacking.

"Then I'll trouble you to lead us all in training? Especially this big guy, he drinks every day, his face has turned pale." Lin Yue retorted to Mann.

Mann, like a bristling gorilla, said, "If you didn't have gorilla arms, I'd straighten you out."

"You're just bragging, Mann." Dorio patted Mann on the shoulder.

The group laughed and joked as they waited for Rebecca to finish her simulation training. Apart from Pila, the technical expert, who was a little annoyed, the others didn't have any major complaints.

The real problem now is this last technical expert. He's clearly not as strong as the mercenaries, but as a technician, Lin Yue still has to find a way to make use of him.

So, how do you use it?

As he pondered this, Lin Yue's eyes lit up as he rubbed his chin.

How about... we conduct a technical assessment?
Pila, who was sitting on the ground smoking and feeling a bit bored, noticed Lin Yue's gaze and a bad feeling rose in her heart...
