From ship girl to machine god

Chapter 177 No follow-up

"Seriously, do you really not know the whereabouts of Qingniao? There are still many things in this city that need to be handed over and discussed with her. Her big plan is stuck here now. We need to know what her next step will be. Arranged." Rogge also joined the discussion at this time. As part of the executor of Jade Bird's big plan, Rogge knew a lot of things, but she had no way to get a glimpse of Jade Bird's entire plan and know about her. How exactly is the next step arranged?

The afterlife mercenaries in the city are acting according to the plan arranged by Blue Bird before, but now they have completed most of the tasks. Although it was agreed before that the rewards will be settled after all tasks are completed, but if you don't know As for the next plan, Rogge has no way to arrange these people.

After all, Jade Bird asked the afterlife mercenaries to cooperate with the Valentino Gang to attack the Sixth Street Gang. Now the Sixth Street Gang has basically been expelled from their original territory, suffered heavy manpower losses, and has almost lost its original control. It can be said that if Jade Bird does not give out the next plan, these mercenaries in the next life will work with the Valentino Gang to break through the entire Sixth Street Gang and even annihilate them.

Although such a result is not unacceptable to Rogge, things cannot be done in such a haphazard manner.

Especially for Rogge, who was used to understanding and controlling everything, this kind of situation where she knew only a little about the entire plan made her very uncomfortable and uncomfortable.

Even old Morgan took the time to go into the city today and was sitting aside, echoing Rogge's words: "Rogge is right, the little girl arranged such a big scene, but don't tell me that she didn't think about it before How to sing the play."

However, no one knew what Blue Bird's next plan was. The resistance army only knew that their mission was to assist the Cyberpunk team in taking down Arasaka Tower and blowing up the shrine. The Valentino Gang only knew that they needed to take down Sixth Street. Gang, while Adkardos only knows that they need to take down the chaos knife that will cause chaos outside the city.

Although everyone was involved in the entire plan, and everyone knew part of the plan, the contents they all knew overlapped. No one knew more, and the only one who truly knew the entire plan was Jade Bird himself.

Therefore, if Qingniao is not here, no one can control the overall situation, and no one can carry out the entire plan on her behalf.

Faced with this situation, everyone in Cyberpunk also felt uncomfortable. In theory, as Blue Bird's subordinates, they should be the people closest to her. As a result, even their most trusted subordinates did not know the specific plan. They don't even know the next plan, which makes Mann and others feel frustrated that they are not trusted.

The little girl Rebecca was particularly sensitive, which even made her feel very lost, and she once wanted to hide and cry secretly.

"Actually, the boss told me something..." At this moment, Lucy suddenly spoke, attracting everyone's attention.

"What did the boss tell you? Why didn't you tell me earlier!" Rebecca immediately angrily pressed her ion emitter to Lucy's forehead, with a very angry expression on her face.

However, Lucy just glanced at her, waved away the muzzle of the gun in front of her, looked into Rebecca's eyes and said to everyone: "Because the boss said that there is only so much in the entire plan. When we have completed what we have set, After the part, it is enough to just let things develop naturally and let him play freely. She has no more arrangements."

"How is this possible? This is not the way the boss does things!" Rebecca first expressed her objection and disbelief. She even asked Lucy with distrust: "Are you pretending to pass the boss's order? I don't I believe the boss would issue such an order that is completely unreliable! You must know something! Pyrrha, help me catch her, I want to pry her mouth open!"

As Rebecca spoke, she called out to her brother and was about to fight Lucy, capture her and torture her.

Upon seeing this, Mann quickly stopped Rebecca's behavior, but he also cast a distrustful look at Lucy and asked her: "Although Rebecca's words are somewhat inappropriate, they can still explain some problems. Yes, the boss has never given such an outrageous order, and you really act like you know something, so tell me the truth, what happened to the boss?"

Facing Rebecca, Lucy might be able to ignore it, but facing Mann, the eldest brother and second-in-command of the cyberpunk team, Lucy glanced at the others before taking out a discrete chip and handing it to Mann: "This is the last thing the boss sent me. That's what she said."

After receiving the chip handed over by Lucy, Mann's face was full of doubts, but he still inserted the chip into the interface on the back of his head and read the contents.

There was a conversation record in the chip, and Mann noticed that the time on the record was exactly after the Blue Bird sank the Arasaka super aircraft carrier.

"Lucy, I have some things to do next, which may take some time. You follow my previous arrangements to ensure that the entire plan continues. If there is anything difficult to handle, let Alpha take action."

"I know the boss, but what is the plan next? Do you have any other arrangements?"

"No, that's all there is to this plan. There are no follow-up arrangements. After you finish what you are doing now, you just need to let him do what he wants freely."

"Are there no follow-up arrangements? Okay, I know the boss, so when will you come back?"

"I'm not sure, but it should take a while. When I come back, I will solve all the problems."

Looking at this conversation record, the doubts on Mann's face not only did not subside, but became more serious, and even his two eyebrows were knitted together.

However, he still sent the contents on the chip to others, then looked at Lucy and asked: "Besides this, has the boss contacted you since then? Why did the boss contact you instead of me in the end?"

In Mann's view, he is also the second-in-command of the Cyberpunk team, and he should be responsible for the follow-up matters.

However, Lucy made a helpless expression and spread her hands: "I don't know, but maybe I was the only person the boss could contact at that time? After all, you should still be in Mexico with others at that time."

This answer obviously did not satisfy Mann. However, just when he was about to continue asking questions, Old Morgan came to Lucy and asked her a question that everyone was concerned about: "What on earth did the blue bird do? ?”

Chapter 178 I've grown up

While everyone was curious and concerned about where Blue Bird had gone, she was on the seabed outside Night City and had completed the transformation and absorption of the White Whale, and was about to complete her own evolution.

But unlike the last time it evolved in human form, what was formed on the seabed this time was not a steel egg that could be accommodated in a basement, but an entire steel hill, as if it contained an entire warship.

The huge steel hill was transformed from the wreckage of the Beluga. After all the materials were transformed by the mental core, it became like this.

The reason why it became like this is because the Blue Bird was upgrading and transforming at the same time. The material transformed from the Beluga's hull was not absorbed by the Mind Cube, but directly became the material for the Blue Bird's upgrade, so it was piled up directly. Instead of being absorbed bit by bit by the blue bird's body through the core of the mind like last time.

In this steel hill, Jade Bird's new hull has been basically completed and is about to complete the final process and end this upgrade.

And Qade Bird's own consciousness is gradually awakening.

Unlike the last time when he came out of his shell directly, this time the blue bird woke up in the captain's seat in Cambridge.

"Hmm...Is this Cambridge? What an unexpected experience." Qingniao sat up from the large captain's chair, looked down at herself, and saw that her body had grown significantly: "This is after the upgrade. grown up?"

Qingniao stood up and found that not only had she grown taller, but her figure had also changed significantly, which made her wonder if 5 years had passed.

"It seems that the changes in the hull will have an impact on me." Qingniao put his hand on the front inclined armor on his chest. After trying the feel, he suddenly felt a very strange touch: " It's a bit like a water-filled balloon, but a little harder...is this what it feels like..."

However, Jade Bird's exploration of himself ended here. He suddenly grew from 1.4 meters to 1.6 meters. This large span of height growth made Jade Bird somewhat uncomfortable with his current long legs.

Fortunately, she is a ship girl, not an ordinary human being. She does not need to spend too much time adapting to the current exercise mode of carrying weights on her chest, and she quickly adjusts to it.

It's just that as the body grows, Qingniao can no longer wear the clothes he used to wear. Even the clothes he wore before are stretched tightly around Qingniao like some kind of 18X special clothing because his figure suddenly becomes mature. On the blue bird, it is easy to commit a crime at a glance.

Qingniao looked at the damaged shoes on his feet with some pity, flexed his toes protruding from the toes, and said helplessly: "This is better, why not just run naked and wear the ship's uniform!"

Although he complained, Qingniao did not take off his completely unfitting clothes. He just sat back on the captain's chair and casually tapped the armrest twice to start the entire ship.

Although the portholes of the bridge were still wrapped in metal and it was pitch black and it was impossible to see outside, Qingniao knew clearly that when she woke up, it meant that the upgrade was over and she could already activate her new body.

Following the blue bird's will, the entire bridge was lit up instantly, and various equipment started on its own without anyone operating it.

Just like a giant dragon waking up from its slumber, the entire ship began to make a whirring sound similar to that of breathing, as sweet as a kitten snoring.

If it is a human-controlled ship, launching this kind of heat engine is extremely cumbersome. It requires the full cooperation of the entire ship, from the captain to the crew, to make a giant ship of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of tons move. stand up.

But for Jade Bird, it's as simple as getting up and stretching.

She sat bored on the captain's chair and even yawned, giving the impression that she hadn't had enough sleep.

"Let me see. I remember that the engineering module can make clothes. Let's get myself a set of clothes first. We can't go back to Night City like this." Qingniao remembered that the previous engineering module had many functions, and making clothes was natural. Also one of them.

But when Qade Bird opened the system interface of the mental core, what he saw was not the familiar operating interface, but a brand new operating system after an upgrade.

"Hey, this is a shotgun replaced by a cannon! The engineering module has become an in-ship factory. How many more things can be made?" Qade Bird fumbled around for a while, and after figuring out what the changes were, he quickly got started with the new ones. operating system.

After all, the entire ship is her body, and Qingniao can master everything skillfully without any guidance.

Soon he found what he wanted in the vast production list. Qade Bird checked the remaining supplies and then clicked the confirmation button: "It will take a while to produce clothes, so don't leave in a hurry. Let me see what changes will happen after the upgrade."

Qingniao did not immediately move his body, but just put it in a standby state, waiting for the production of the clothes he wanted to be completed.

And she herself called up the structural diagram of the new hull and checked the changes after her upgrade.

This time she jumped directly from a light destroyer to an aircraft carrier. The span in between is really big, and the changes on her body are naturally also great. It takes a while to understand and become familiar with it, although for the blue bird, even just instinct is enough. used.

Chapter 179

In the Afterlife Bar, everyone has become more and more bored these days, because the Sixth Street Gang was finally driven out of the main city of Night City by the Valentino Gang and fled to Taipingzhou, which finally brought the city to a standstill. .

This time, the Valentino Gang completely swallowed up the Sixth Street Gang's original territory, and their power suddenly expanded, breaking the original situation in which various gangs in Night City were competing against each other.

Originally, in this situation, the companies behind the major gangs would more or less intervene to balance the struggle between the various forces and maintain order in Night City.

But now that each company is involved in trouble and cannot get out, how can it have the energy to manage the struggles of these street gangs?

If he is beaten to death, he is beaten to death. At worst, he can just support a new puppet later. For the company, raising a gang is as easy as raising a dog.

Anyway, there are people who want to make a name for themselves in Night City every day, and the world will never lack such silly boys.

But this time there might be something different.

At least after the war between the Valentino Gang ended, V and Jack, who had freed their hands, joined the Cyberpunk team and decided to go outside the city to solve the last trouble in Night City, Adcados and the trouble. The war of swordsmen.

In fact, there isn't much that needs their help on this side. After all, it's old Morgan and his old teammates who are taking action here.

With old Morgan, the legendary lone wolf, leading the team, these old guys were all killed in a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood. A mere sword fight is really not enough for them.

However, the Luan Dao Society itself is not a small gang, but a part of the Rangers. Although they are all guys who were kicked out of the family, these people are a force that cannot be underestimated when they form a group.

The Blade Club in Night City is only a small part of the entire Wanderer family, and there is a larger force behind them.

When the Night City's Luandaohui were being beaten back and forth, they naturally called on their backers to try to win back the victory.

It is precisely because of this that they were able to fight back and forth with Adkardos and Old Morgan, so much so that the city had already finished the fight and they had no intention of leaving yet.

Of course, there is more or less the reason why Old Morgan deliberately delayed and created chaos according to Jade Bird's wishes.

However, as the cyberpunk team exploded the fish pond, the war here quickly ended, and all forces in Night City except the company ushered in a new round of reshuffle.

But this didn't make much sense to everyone in the Cyberpunk team, because before, Blue Bird led them to work directly with the company and build a new country, which was not comparable to the level of gang gunfights. .

"Ah! It's so boring! If this continues, I'm going to blow up Arasaka Tower again!" Rebecca sat bored on a bench and looked at the sea in the distance. The smelly sea breeze that came out made her feel nauseous. But she still stared straight at the sea.

Because the blue bird disappeared after chasing Arasaka's super aircraft carrier Beluga, Rebecca stubbornly believed that the blue bird would also come back from the sea.

So every day when she had nothing to do, she would ride out Aotori's Kusanagi Blade and come to the beach to stay, hoping that when Aotori came back, she would be the first to see it.

Rebecca herself didn't know what was wrong with her. Ever since the Blue Bird disappeared, she had been visibly irritable and couldn't calm down even if she did anything. That is, looking at the sea here can still make people calm a little bit. one time.

The disappearance of the blue bird was like taking something important away from Rebecca, making her always feel that something was missing in her heart, and it was this feeling that made her always restless.

"Ahhhh! When will you come back, boss!" Rebecca shouted loudly at the sea, looking quite crazy.

"Tch, it's so unlucky to meet a madman!" "Keep your voice down, otherwise you will die if it turns out to be a cyber madman!"

When Rebecca heard someone talking behind her, she immediately turned her head, her eyes widened and her face full of murderous intent.

Behind him were several street gangsters dressed in strange and weird clothes, including men and women. The one who spoke just now was a man and a woman among them.
