Please call me Cyber ​​Demon King

"Dang Dang Dang!"

There was another knock on the door. Ke Ling went to open it, and standing there was naturally the cat-headed lady. The girl looked somewhat excited.

"Ke Ling! I'm so glad you're alright!"

Sasha hugged Ke Ling tightly, her heart finally settling back into place, and the pressure she had been carrying vanished.

Sasha has never liked to cause trouble for others, but without realizing it, she felt that she had caused Ke Ling a lot of trouble, which made her feel very uneasy.

happy New Year!

My blessings are only two: good health and wealth!

Chapter 128 The Demon Slayer

"Tsk, tsk, tsk!"

Seeing Sasha holding Ke Ling, V made a strange sound from behind.

"Haha, Sasha has been so worried about you these past few days, afraid that something might happen to you."

Jack chuckled and joked from the side, saying that Sasha had even asked them about Ke Ling's situation, and that the girl had indeed been worried about her.

He and V already knew the whole story, and that Ke Ling had gotten into trouble because of getting involved with Sasha, so they weren't surprised by Sasha's reaction.

Lucy watched from the side, her expression thoughtful.

"I'm fine, don't worry."

Ke Ling patted Sasha's head and said with a smile.

The latter immediately released him, and a blush rose on the girl's face. The cat-headed lady realized her lapse in composure and became somewhat shy.

"I'm sorry."

Sasha spoke somewhat awkwardly, but Ke Ling didn't let her continue to feel embarrassed.

"Let's talk after we come in first."

Ke Ling pulled Sasha aside, letting the embarrassed girl into the house.

"Ke Ling, are you sure this is okay?"

As soon as Sasha sat down, she started asking Ke Ling questions, her expression showing some worry.

Although some time has passed, Ke Ling's appearance is clearly well-known to the people of Night City, and if he goes out like this, he will definitely be recognized.

"That's exactly what I was going to show you."

Ke Ling smiled and transformed back into human form. This "transformation" left Jack, Lucy, and Sasha speechless.

"This, this, this"

Jack Wells pointed at Ke Ling with a look of utter disbelief.

"How about that? No one will recognize me now, right?"

Ke Ling looked at the people around him, and their expressions confirmed one thing: his new image was indeed vastly different from his original one, and they wouldn't associate it with the person he was supposed to be.

"You bastard, how did you manage to make yourself so handsome?!"

After a long pause, Jack Wells finally managed to utter a question.

"No, no, no, this appearance only captures seven-tenths of my original essence."

Ke Ling raised the corner of her mouth, held up a finger and shook it, looking rather dissatisfied.

Have you no shame?!

V pursed her lips, "You're getting cocky now that I'm saying you're fat?" But she had to admit that Ke Ling did look much better than before.

After fusing with "Rc cells", the [Demon Transformation] skill level increased, and Ke Ling's charm value recovered by one point. Now, in human form, his charm value has reached 13 points, which is indeed considered to be very appealing.

"By the way, I got some fresh fruit, let me share it with you."

Ke Ling ignored V's complaints. He manipulated his shadow to come to his side, and the shadow transformed into the shape of a suitcase. Ke Ling opened the suitcase directly, and it was full of fruit.

"Come on, you're welcome."

Ke Ling picked up the fruit and distributed it to the group of people who were once again amazed by his actions.

“V, Jack, these things will also be added to our store listings in the future. We’ll focus on being comprehensive and having everything you could want. I’ve thought about it, and we can even accept customization, even for some special foods. I’ll try to see if I can get them.”

While distributing fruit, Ke Ling said to V and Jack Wells that the operation of fleecing biotech companies cannot stop. Those guys can't keep cracking down forever. If there is market demand, someone will definitely sell. That can't be changed.

"Ke Ling, didn't you go out to lay low?"

Taking an apple, Jack Wells took a bite and asked the question that Old Wells had never asked before.

"You didn't go to a biotech company's lab to lay low, did you?"

V was utterly bewildered. This wasn't a trip to lay low; it was a raid on inventory! A raid like a plunder!

They stole new technology and a bunch of naturally grown food. Are they treating biotech companies' labs like their own backyard?!

"If it weren't for the fact that the biotech company was made a fool of by what you did, I would have suspected that you were deliberately released by the biotech company. This is just too outrageous!"

Jack Wells sighed. It was normal for him to have such thoughts, after all, Ke Ling's changes were obvious to all, and these changes had completely exceeded their understanding.

These things can only be explained by new technologies. After all, it's normal that they can't understand the cutting-edge technologies developed by those development fanatics in biotechnology companies.

"Don't talk nonsense. I, Ke Lingxing, rely entirely on myself when I'm out in the world. I have absolutely nothing to do with biotechnology companies. But sooner or later, I will wipe out all those crazy scientists."

Ke Ling vehemently denied any connection with the biotechnology company, but his words were anything but kind to the company.

This left the group looking at each other in bewilderment. They didn't believe Ke Ling's words at all, since the fact that Daiwo Collins was a test subject for a biotechnology company had already been firmly established in the public's mind.

The group believed that Ke Ling simply didn't want to acknowledge his relationship with the biotechnology company, since acknowledging it would be tantamount to admitting that he was indeed an experimental monster.

Lucy's expression was somewhat complicated. She felt that she was the one who could understand Ke Ling's thoughts the most, because she would never tell others about her experiences in the Arasaka Laboratory.

"I'm going to change my identity. I can no longer use the identity of Devor Collins on the surface. From today onwards, just call me when you're out and about. Cut ties with Devor Collins!"

Ke Ling mentioned to everyone that the identity of Daiwo Collins was already well-known, so it could no longer be used in daily life, but it was just a code name and could still be used.

“There have been quite a few lately. People in Night City love to cultivate personality cults, especially those who fight against the government and corporations. They are the ones who are most likely to gain the approval of the lower classes.”

Jack Wells began by saying that he had even seen guys in the Haywood district who imitated Dave Collins's appearance.

"To engage in demon worship at Heywood is simply asking for a beating."

V pursed his lips; this was no joke.

The Valentino gang has already struck hard, giving those bastards in the Heywood district who wear devil horns and have weird tattoos like the one on their bodies a good beating.

"After all, those who worship demons don't do anything good. They really think they are demons from hell who can do whatever they want in the human world."

Jack Wells was clearly quite familiar with the matter; he glanced at Ke Ling and spoke directly.

“Those guys claim to be followers of Davo Collins, and they hope that you, the immortal demon Davo Collins, will appear to them and grant them the power of eternal life.”

Ever since he met those demon worshippers in the Heywood district, Jack Wells had made a point of investigating, since the matter was related to his good brother, Ke Ling, and he naturally had to pay close attention.

He also knew that the Haywood district was just a branch, and the real hideout of these demon worshippers was in the Santo Domingo district, where a "Demon Gang" had emerged, which was the source of these demon worshippers. They were causing trouble everywhere, which made the Sixth Street gang very angry.

"Tell me more about what else happened during this time."

Ke Ling narrowed his eyes, feeling somewhat disgusted. They were using his name to commit arson, murder, and robbery, causing chaos everywhere, and worshipping him like an evil god. Had they even asked for his opinion, this evil god himself?

The key point is that he has never bullied ordinary people. He either works as a street cleaner, a corporate employee, or a member of a government riot squad, always refusing to pick on the weak.

If you truly admire him, shouldn't you kill the cleaners, oppose the company, and oppose the government? What kind of thing is it to use his name to harm ordinary people?

"Cough cough, don't be angry. They're just a bunch of crazy people who're using this as an excuse to cause trouble. Night City will never lack bastards like this."

Seeing that Ke Ling's expression wasn't good, Jack Wells offered a word of comfort. He understood that anyone in this situation would probably feel uncomfortable, and no one wanted to take the blame for someone else.

"Why don't we just go and take care of them?"

V sat up straight on the sofa, pulled out her gun, and decided to go and take down this damn "Devil Gang" as a welcome back party for Ke Ling, since Ke Ling had just returned.

"They really need to be taught a lesson, otherwise they'll keep ruining your reputation."

Sasha nodded gravely, expressing her support for V's plan; in short, this matter absolutely could not be left unresolved.

She hadn't really heard of this "Devil Gang" before. It seemed to be a newly formed gang, centered around some demon worshippers, causing trouble under the name of Davo Collins.

"It's disgusting, but I can help if needed."

Lucy also expressed her support. She now views Ke Ling through the lens of seeing a kindred spirit, so she naturally wouldn't mind helping out.

Besides, Sasha, a hacker outside the team, is going to help, so how could she, as the team's official hacker, not go?

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's set off!"

Jack Wells encouraged him, saying he had nothing to do these past few days and was bored out of his mind; taking down this "Devil Gang" would be a good way to stretch his muscles.

"Actually, it's not necessarily necessary to kill them all; we might as well use them."

Ke Ling stood up. This matter certainly couldn't be left unresolved, but whether to resolve it simply and brutally with "killing" was debatable. These bastards might be worth making use of.

"How do you use it? They worship the immortal demon Davo Collins and yearn to gain the same immortality as you."

V spoke as he organized the firearms.

"Do you really think you can make them become like you?"

V's expression clearly showed disbelief, and without doing that, it was impossible to get those bastards to listen—that was obvious.

In V's view, they were just a bunch of crazy people who were trying to do something out of the name of devil worship. They were not real worshippers or believers. If Dave Collins really appeared in front of them, the result would definitely not be that they would bow down and worship.

Who knows, these self-proclaimed "Davo Collins followers" might just sell the news of Davo Collins's appearance to various companies. If they actually see the "undying demon," they might be consumed by fear. The story of Lord Ye's love of dragons always happens.

“V is right.”

Jack Wells nodded; he clearly thought so too, that group of "demon worshippers" certainly wouldn't be so obedient.

Now that you've shed the identity of Dave Collins, don't put yourself at risk again; the companies are watching you closely.

Sasha also chimed in, suggesting that it would be best to eliminate those who were ruining the reputation, rather than creating unnecessary trouble, and that it would be better if Davo Collins didn't show up at all.

Lucy remained silent, wanting to hear Ke Ling's thoughts; her kindred spirit clearly harbored more secrets than she did.

"What I mean by 'use it' is probably not the same as what you think of as 'use it'."
