Pyrrha, Rebecca, these people who rely solely on mercenary work will encounter all kinds of troubles.
As for the fundamental reason why these mercenaries have no work... it is naturally because of them, no! The entire industry has not even involved the efficiency of one person.
The person who caused this strange phenomenon is right in front of me now~.
The "famous Qiao Qiao" who combines top strength, reaction and technology, the king of mercenaries, the cyber legend, single-handedly wiped out all the people who dared to show off in the streets of Night City, and his reputation for brutality spread far and wide.
Even when negotiating with a large armed organization, just saying "Believe it or not, I will cut you into shreds in ten seconds" can scare the other party into paying money and running away.
If you dare to speak loudly, I will chop you down with the molecular wire without saying a word.
There was a conflict with the terrorist team members, and one person chased others all over the street.
Things are unfair, I will help you make it right. It is not an exaggeration to call me the Cyber Batman of Night City. This has led to the entire Mann team looking at Qiao Qiao as if they were seeing God.
"I haven't drunk in a long time, gurgle gurgle."
"You poor bastard, it's all because you spend too much money."
Rebecca and Pila suddenly grabbed the bottle. After drinking a little to cheer themselves up, Rebecca suddenly approached Qiao Qiao and said, "Hey, hey, hey, Dr. Cailang, do you know what we've heard recently? You're an army by yourself, hahahaha (hiccups) ~ I didn't realize you were so powerful before."
"you guess."
Qiao Qiao said as he wanted to touch Rebecca’s blue hair, but was glared at by her and said viciously, “Don’t treat me like a little devil.”
"Now is the time to show you how powerful the adults are."
"Pah, I've seen a lot of guns and cannons."
"Tried?"
Then Qiao Qiao was slapped hard by the crazy girl Rebecca, and was given the middle finger. However, Qiao Qiao didn't care and drank a sip of wine to wash off the burning on his face. He looked at Mann and Kallio and asked, "Speaking of which, Sasha, is her autism period not over yet?"
Rather than asking Mann, it would be more accurate to ask Mann's lover, Kallio.
As Sasha's best friend, she must know something. However, Kallio shook his head and denied it, saying, "She stayed in the house alone and didn't come out. You helped Sasha a lot, but the result was not very good."
"I have already told Sasha the result, but she didn't believe it. So, the process is what's important." Qiao Qiao responded with a smile.
In the original world line of Cyberpunk, Sasha's original world line ended because he accidentally discovered the inside story of the medicine his mother was taking and decided to make the information public, risking his life for it. The result... naturally, he died.
However, her wish was not fulfilled.
Because the biological company and News Channel 54 have a deep cooperative relationship in private.
So, if we say that Sasha’s efforts and sacrifices in the original worldline have changed Night City, even if it’s just a little bit…
The answer is sad, not at all, and it was suppressed without even a ripple. It was only after Sasha's death that Mann recruited hackers such as Qiwei and Lucy.
Now with the existence of Qiao Qiao, it has had an impact and changed Sasha's world line.
There are changes, but not big ones.
Because Qiao Qiao, who had not opened the chat group before, was just an ordinary cyborg doctor and could only know what Sasha was thinking, so all Qiao Qiao could do was to guide Sasha and let him give up the most extreme and self-destructive way.
However, this thought was like a fish bone stuck in Sasha's heart. Until Sasha suddenly found that Qiao Qiao had become a well-known evil star overnight, so he tried to ask: "You said before that a gentleman waits three years for revenge, while a villain takes revenge immediately. Now, which gentleman are you, whose meaning I don't understand? Or a villain?"
"Villain. The only possibility for me to take revenge overnight is to make my enemy suffer more."
As long as you are a civilian and have been wronged, you only need a glass of juice to ask Qiao Qiao to help you kill the evildoer.
If you have no money and only a miserable life left, as long as you still persist and have hope, you can let Qiao Qiao punch you as a thank you.
Well, since it was a request from his good friend Sasha, Qiao Qiao naturally would not refuse.
As a result, no one knew how many Kangtao robots were broken along the way, and Qiao Qiao and Sasha were on the news that night.
However, there was not much response after the exposure, because the news station and the biological company both tried to deal with it coldly, and finally ended it all after casually releasing a video of the person in charge bowing and apologizing.
This result caused Sasha, who was prepared to sacrifice his life, to become autistic on the spot.
Part of it is because I have been doing useless work.
Part of it was because he felt that dragging Qiao Qiao into something too dangerous.
……
"Kalio said that you should be tougher and break into the cat's home, pet the cat and smooth her fur, and then everything will be fine."
"Forget it. Cats are too self-centered. Look at me. I went up there a few times and my shoulders and back are covered in wounds. I have done what I can do."
Qiao Qiao said: "Besides, I'm very busy during this period. I have so many commissions that I don't have time at all."
Mann listened to these Versailles words and thought, do they sound like human words? It is obvious that he accepted everything without caring about whether it was a meat or a vegetable.
"If you are really tired, put these things aside and give others a chance to live."
Mann was silent for a while, and then said, "Come to think of it, you are completely different now than you were before. You should have cherished your life more before. I say, you don't have much time to live, for example, only six months to live, so you are so crazy about enjoying the rest of your life?"
Mann has been in Night City for so long, he definitely has a good vision, so he guessed that this is a possibility.
"Do I look like I'm that short-lived? People change all the time, but I change a little suddenly."
Of course, the reason why Qiao Qiao has been accepting commissions so diligently recently is that he is trying to see if he can accomplish V's feat in Cyberpunk 2077. Now it seems that he is not far away.
In addition, the more important purpose is to collect props and information, and snatch various precious resources monopolized by major forces.
Qiao Qiao glanced at Mann and said, "Come to think of it, Mann, it's time to downgrade your prosthetics."
The so-called downgrade is to reduce the strength of the prosthesis, use a weak prosthesis that does not put much burden on the brain and reduces the damage.
0 ·······Request flowers· ····
But as soon as these words were spoken, the cheerful box fell into silence in an instant.
Because everyone knows that Mann would never do that!
"Huh? What is Qiao Qiao talking about?" Rebecca exclaimed.
"Boss Mann, Qiao Qiao was just joking." Pira quickly said nonsense.
The brother and sister tried to ease the situation, but to no avail.
Mann stared at Qiao Qiao, even taking off his glasses to reveal his eyes, and said seriously: "Are you serious? As my doctor, you should know that I have never downgraded the prosthesis."
"If you don't have any advice, then start doing it now."
“What if I don’t do this?”
Mann stared with murderous intent in his eyes, but Qiao Qiao turned a blind eye to the murderous intent.
"If you don't do this? Judging from your condition, you are probably close to a mental illness. Even so, you won't do it?"
When Qiao Qiao revealed the truth, Mann's face turned gloomy.
As Mann's girlfriend, Kallio held Mann's arm tightly, because she knew Mann's situation best and was aware that Mann did have this situation recently.
. .... 0
"Even if that's the case, there's no way my prosthetic body can be downgraded, huh." Mann roared and was about to leave.
"If you don't listen to me and don't want to take it off, then I will take it off for you myself. If after taking it off, you still don't listen to me and put the prosthesis back on, then I will have to wait until you really go crazy and take off your head myself."
Qiao Qiao drank the juice. The sound of the cup dropping made Mann look strange.
If Qiao Qiao had dared to speak to him, Mann, like this seven days ago, Mann would have just laughed it off as a joke.
However, seven days later, when Mann heard this, he understood that Qiao Qiao would really do what he wanted to do, and the difference in strength between the two sides was like heaven and earth.
Kalio, who was supposed to occupy Mann, did not speak at this time, because she knew that this situation was the most advantageous option for Mann.
Qiao Qiao was previously Mann's prosthetic doctor, and he also knew that Mann's mental condition had reached the brink of explosion at any time.
Mann seemed to struggle for a long time in his heart, but in the end he did not step out of the room.
Because Mann had seen how Qiao Qiao fought now. He had once seen Qiao Qiao kill a man with a King Kong arm using his original arm during an arm wrestling match.
From that time on, Mann knew that unless he was dressed in military grade uniforms, he would not be able to compete with Qiao Qiao.
"But after being relegated, how are we going to beg for food? Are we going to sleep on the streets together? Hahaha, if you say we will be relegated, then we will be relegated. We have seven or eight mouths here waiting to eat."
"Really? Anyway, I'm here, so you still don't have any commissions."
"..."
"..."
Such shameless words stunned everyone for a moment, and even Qiwei and Lucy, two aloof people who never fit in with the group, dropped their cigarettes on the ground.
"Listen, listen, listen to this, is this human language?"
Mann said, "Just let everyone have nothing to eat? One person destroyed the entire industry. If you say that to others, all the mercenaries will probably want to fight you to the death, Joe."
"Hahaha, just kidding. I don't care about other people's business, but if you are my acquaintance, I can introduce you to simpler and safer jobs. Of course, I definitely don't want you to drive screws." Bu.
197. Cyber Qiao Qiao: I feel more and more that Sister Baoer is a man-made creation
The world of cyberpunk has consumed so many talents. No, it should be said that it does not need talents, but only needs some gears to make blood-and-tear enterprises like Arasaka run.
Although the Arasaka Tower elites have the most advanced learning AI to help them learn, after all the learning, there is only a group of guys who learn from the AI and think they have obtained the truth of the world, but use big data to construct their own ridiculous logical rules.
Even though he is completely disconnected from most ordinary people, he stands in the ivory tower of Arasaka Tower and waves his hand, making this society worse and worse, and the living standards of ordinary Cybermen getting lower and lower.
Even if they make mistakes, they will not admit them. Maybe they will even think that no one understands their grand strategy and groan like a petty bourgeois, feeling that the world is unfair and that they are being buried.
In fact, if it weren't for his elite status and the support of Arasaka, he would have been killed.
It is obvious that only people who come out of the crowd understand what practice means, and that practice makes perfect. Mann is such a person who knows everything.
As the pillar of the team, he is responsible for various tasks. If he hadn't gone crazy in the original book, his achievements would have been higher, at least he could have become a small legend.
Well, the kind that is honored posthumously.
Qiao Qiao thought so, and then prepared a safety precaution for Mann: "Mann, I will be responsible for your prosthetic body's downgrade attack."
When Qiao Qiao said this, Mann thought for a moment that Qiao Qiao was going to replace his clothes with scrap metal. However, under Qiao Qiao's coercion, Mann could only nod and say yes. After all, no one wants to have a head that is not attached to their head.
Then, thirty minutes after arriving at Qiaoqiao's new clinic, Mann looked in the mirror and saw that he had lost a lot of weight, with a look of confusion on his face.
"Demotion? This is called demotion? Demotion is paralysis, this is called upgrading. If this is called demotion, please give me a few more times, I don't care."
Mann jumped and yelled with extreme excitement. The other team members looked at Mann, who was now a size smaller than their wives, and were shocked by his beauty.
Pyrrha circled Mann again and again, shouting, "You're telling me that you got rich because you can make customized top-notch bionic prostheses? My God! This is something that is monopolized by big companies! My goodness, let's open a company tomorrow and become mercenaries."
Private customized top-level bionic prosthesis is tailor-made!
The general public can only use specified models, and use whatever works, which is why they keep making bigger and bigger models.
Bionic prostheses are small in size, have the same performance, and even have performance far exceeding that of the general public.
This is like comparing the performance of a six-story computer from a hundred years ago with a computer today. Is there any comparison? The latter is smaller in size, but has extremely high performance!
However, even if I know this fact, I still cannot install it.
If you have the ability and want top-notch bionic prostheses, that’s fine! You can only go to the hospitals that have special contracts with our company, because this kind of private customization technology is completely monopolized by a number of companies and cannot be leaked to outsiders.
The result of this monopoly is that the public can only customize it at unimaginably expensive prices.
It is too expensive to have this kind of bionic body.
Just like what Qiao Qiao said before about depriving the lower class of learning opportunities, this method of raising the threshold deprives people of their aesthetic rights. The lower the level of the cyborgs, the more bizarre they look. Some even put two patches on their bodies and call themselves cyborgs.
Therefore, when Qiao Qiao showed this trick, it instantly ignited everyone's shock and enthusiasm.
The elder brother Pira thought of making money and starting a company.
Sister Rebecca immediately forgot that she had slapped Qiao Qiao not long ago. She claimed that she was not a brat, so she looked up at Qiao Qiao with stars in her eyes and said, "Qiao, Qiao, you see, we are so familiar with each other. I want to order long legs from you. What do you say?"
"Okay, for you guys, I won't count the labor cost, just the cost."
This was not a big deal for Qiao Qiao, but there was one thing that he was quite concerned about. He said, "But please don't advertise it. I don't sell my private products for business."
"Ah? You don't want to make money? I've just made a customer list for you..." Pira immediately shut up when she saw that Qiao Qiao didn't seem to be joking.
"By the way, you two should not turn this into information you can sell. If I find out, you will be responsible for the consequences."
Qiao Qiao glanced at the two hackers with flickering eyes and gave a warning.
Immediately, Lucy and Qiwei stopped talking and nodded "yes".
Are you kidding? They must maintain friendly relations with people like Qiao Qiao. Neither of them wants to be beheaded for no reason one day.
"Pyrrha. I'll make you a bionic saddlebag and install it for you when I have time."
"Oh my god, this is possible? A horse thing can be made? This is so cool." Pyrrha waved her long arms excitedly.
