Revolution, Cyber Magical Girl!
Chapter 6 The Mission of the Magical Girl Protection Association
"Lu, what do you think of magical girls?"
How to see it? What else could Lu Chaoge see it? He himself was a magical girl.
He asked, "What does that mean?"
What did he discover?
Does he think I'm a magical girl?
Lu Chaoge's mind raced for a moment, wondering if he should kill him, but Rod's next words came quickly.
"It's alright. If you also have a prejudice against magical girls, then forget it. I'll ask someone else."
Lu Chaoge realized what was happening, her expression turning somewhat strange. "I don't have any prejudice against them, but what do you mean by that?"
Rhodes took a sip of his drink, not directly answering Lu Chaoge's question, "I heard you've been working as a mercenary lately?"
This news wasn't exactly a secret. Mercenaries in the 43rd District dungeon were as numerous as stray dogs on the roadside, with far more wolves than meat. Therefore, as a mercenary, the greater the reputation, the better, and there was no need to hide it.
Lu Chaoge nodded. "What, is there work to do?"
After receiving an affirmative reply, Lu Chaoge's tone was somewhat doubtful.
"Looking for me?"
Rod is a gang member. Even if there is work to be done, he should be called upon by members of the gang. How could he be asked to do it by a freelancer like Rod?
After a moment of silence, Rhodes looked around to make sure no one was paying attention before whispering, "Didn't we help you get your identity document and have some contact with the Magical Girl Association? I took on some work for the association on the side."
"There are some things they can't do, which is why I don't want to get involved with gangs... If you're willing to take them on, I'll talk to you about it."
Upon hearing this, Lu Chaoge's eyes revealed understanding.
Like the top figures in the company, they all have a "black glove" to handle some inconvenient matters.
However, the Magical Girl Association, which is of low status and ostracized, obviously does not have this problem.
If the magical girl takes action herself, even if the task is accomplished, the nature of the situation will change.
Rhodes didn't want this job to involve the gang for the same reason. After all, if they were discovered, people would laugh at him for having such a big gang acting as a lackey for the Magical Girl Association.
But it doesn't matter for independent mercenaries like Lu Chaoge.
"I understand, I'll take it. Go ahead and say it." Lu Chaoge was straightforward, but Luo De hesitated for a moment, then tilted his head back, took another big gulp of wine, and shook his head.
"Lu, think about it again..."
"It's okay, just tell me how much it costs."
"Okay, come outside with me." Rod glanced inside the bar, then got up and staggered out the door, still drunk.
Lu Chaoge wasn't bothered by it; he'd rather be dried up alive than be left without work.
His balance was only 8.2@, and even if he did nothing, he would still need to spend 10@ a month on magic essence, not to mention living expenses.
The hype surrounding the live stream has died down, and Lu Chaoge doesn't think he can earn 6@ the same amount in the next one.
In District 43, in this world, death is not scary, being broke is scary, and Lu Chaoge really will die if he can't afford magic essence.
As long as there's money to be made, plenty of people are willing to die.
Moreover, this matter involves the Magical Girl Association—Lu Chaoge also wants to see what this association is up to.
After all, she herself is a magical girl.
Lu Chaoge followed Rod to an old-fashioned jeep. Rod looked left and right, and when he found no one paying attention, he punched the window and smashed it. He then opened the door and got in.
Then Rod took three data cables from his dreadlocks, plugged them into the car's port, and the car started quickly.
Seeing Lu Chaoge's somewhat surprised look, Rod laughed heartily.
"Bro, I'm a hacker for Big O, so I've got some skills." He pulled out a bottle of liquor, bit off the cap, and gulped it down. He grinned at Lu Chaoge, revealing a mouthful of white teeth on his dark face.
"Impressive, impressive." Lu Chaoge said, silently fastening his seatbelt. He wondered if his previous car had also been stolen in the same way.
Previously somewhat somber, Rhodes was now completely relaxed under the influence of alcohol, and he seemed extremely pleased with Lu Chaoge's praise.
"Bro, this is nothing. Did you know yesterday that those fugitives who made the news were blown up at the amusement park? I was there too, and I saw the scene."
Lu Chaoge frowned slightly. Could this guy know he was the one who did it? He asked tentatively, "What, did you do that job?"
"Just kidding, I was just trying my luck, I don't have that kind of ability." Rhodes shook his head and said, "I don't know which guy is so awesome that he can directly break through the electronic cube's detection. A third-rate hacker like me couldn't do that even if I racked my brains."
Lu Chaoge was pleased to hear this, but before he could enjoy it for long, Luo De's next words immediately enraged him.
"But I was lucky, bro. You have no idea what I found over there, haha, a nice car. I don't know which idiot parked it on the side of the amusement park road. I just drove it away and sold it for a damn 3@. I bet the owner was furious. Hahaha, it was worth the trip."
Lu Chaoge was silent for a moment, then punched the other party without saying a word. The speeding jeep crashed into the wall, leaving Luo De covered in bumps. Under the other party's angry glare, Lu Chaoge said fiercely.
"Lucky you, huh? That's my car, damn it! Pay up!"
Lu Chaoge's angry shout brought Luo De back to his senses slightly. He awkwardly withdrew his fist, scratched his head, and muttered, "Look at the mess this has become..."
Then, as if realizing something, Rhodes looked at Lu Chaoge with surprise, "So, you did that job?"
"No, I was just trying my luck, and then some idiot stole my car," Lu Chaoge said irritably.
"That's true." Rhodes nodded, agreeing with Lu Chaoge's words, and then his mouth started to chatter away again.
"After all, that job pays at least 100@. If you were making that kind of money, you definitely wouldn't have taken my job. You'd probably still be having fun with some woman right now."
Hey!
100@!!
Damn middleman.
I hope I never run into that middleman named X again!
Lu Chaoge, having been hit by a series of blows, took a deep breath and said, "Let's get down to business."
"Okay, this job isn't as big as yesterday's. After all, the Magical Girl Association is dirt poor, only 50@, but it's just for the two of us." Rhodes glanced at Lu Chaoge, "I'll give you 20@... no, 23@."
50@!
This is an outrageous order.
Dungeon mercenaries usually get 3-5 jobs, but if they have to risk their lives, they can get 10-15 jobs.
10 lives is roughly equivalent to a month's wages for someone in the city, and that's a price set after many people have died.
Those 30@ orders were snapped up by a lot of people.
Ultimately, they are forces on the ground; no matter how much the Magical Girl Association tries to gain, it can't compare to the people of the dungeon.
Lu Chaoge was satisfied with the price, but still said without changing her expression, "The price is good, but why do you have more than me?"
"Bro, it's just a thief, not a murderer. I can basically crack the security system there. You just need to protect me. Besides, I'm the one who found this job."
Lu Chaoge didn't say anything, she just looked at Luo De.
This job isn't that simple; it's a full 50 orders.
He wouldn't feel at ease taking the money if he didn't kill someone.
"Okay, I can only crack 80% at most, but that's enough. I'm just a hacker, that's all I can handle. The rest is up to you." Rhodes said, sending the data to Lu Chaoge.
The mission location is a villa in the Anting District of the underground city in District 43. Anting District is one of the few "rich areas" in the underground city. The original owner has already achieved a leap in social class and gone to the surface. The villa has not been sold, but it has been vacant for a long time.
The target this time is a set of experimental data on a new type of prosthetic body preserved in the villa.
This experimental data had been deemed useless and discarded, but for some reason the Magical Girl Association wanted it.
Lu Chaoge thought for a moment, "What the Magical Girl Association wants should also be useful to him, right?"
The villa has certain security measures in place. Rhodes can hack into the security network to block the signal and unlock all the doors, but there are guard robots that are not connected to the network in the place where experimental data is stored.
The division of labor was quite clear: Rhodes was the hacker, and Lu Chaoge acted as his henchman.
The information provided by Rhodes was so detailed that Lu Chaoge felt it was excessive. The layout of each room in the villa was drawn in 3D, which clearly showed that a lot of effort had been put into it.
"The intelligence is very detailed."
As for the risks?
Is there no risk in being a mercenary? If Lu Chaoge really cared about that, he would have just gone and sold his body; that would be safer.
"But I want to pay more, 25@." Lu Chaoge didn't stand on ceremony, but she didn't ask for more either; 55 points was fair.
Rod paused for a moment, lowered his head and thought for a while, then said seriously.
"Sure, but you have to guarantee it will work."
"Guarantee? There's no such thing as a guarantee in this line of work. Anyone who says they can guarantee something is lying to you. I can only guarantee that I'm absolutely worth the price. Rhodes, you're a veteran of the dungeon, you must understand, right?" Lu Chaoge spoke very bluntly.
The mortality rate for mercenaries is very high; it's a profession where you truly risk your life for money.
However, Lu Chaoge could also guarantee that as long as he used the power of the magical girl, the stuff in this dungeon wouldn't be able to stop him.
But that's not something that can be solved with 25 yuan; you'll have to pay more.
"No." Rod looked at Lu Chaoge, his clear black and white pupils revealing an unprecedented seriousness.
But he still spoke with a chuckle.
"Bro, I have to make this happen. I need the money. My daughter's a useless piece of trash, still waiting to be paid by the central medical center!"
