Monster Hunter Gathering

The most senior middleman in this area, and the guy who later kidnapped Lucy and planned to use her to make a deal with Arasaka.

It makes people angry just looking at it!

David was thinking this as he saw that Mann seemed to have an argument with Faraday, and then Faraday left in a very unhappy manner.

"Huh?" David looked at the scene in confusion: "What's going on?"

Meanwhile, in the afterlife, Nie Chiwu and He Zhen sat arm in arm at the afterlife bar, greeting Claire with a familiar expression, "Claire! Two glasses of Granny Cat's love!"

"Here it comes." Claire skillfully placed the milk, which had been quickly boiled and then turned off, in front of Kazuma and Nie Chiwu. She said helplessly, "You're the first to come to the next life bar to drink milk."

"If it were anyone else, they'd probably be ridiculed by everyone here," Claire said. "But after all, you're hunters who've made a name for yourself in Night City in just two weeks."

Claire finally added a little ginger juice to their cups: "Okay, please enjoy."

Nie Chiwu put his arm around He Zhen's shoulder, casually picked up the cup and glanced around.

People around couldn't help but look at Nie Chiwu. After all, Nie Chiwu had been frequenting the Laisheng Bar for the past two weeks. Not only did he have a lot of contact with Rogge, but he even...

Including himself, the group of guys who called themselves "Hunters" quickly occupied an ecological niche in Night City like monsters.

It’s not that no one caused trouble, but after the famous mercenary who caused trouble was stripped of all his prosthetics and then carried into the Rogue Bar by Nie Chiwu single-handedly... no one was so foolish as to cause trouble for these hunters anymore.

As for mocking them for drinking milk or something...

They are strong, they drink whatever they want in Egypt, where do they have pipes...

"Oh ho ho..."

Kazuma actually seemed to enjoy his current situation.

After all, he was just a junior adventurer in his own world, and was known by names like "devil man"... How could it be as satisfying as the awe-inspiring gazes he was receiving now?

However, before the two of them had time to finish their milk, Rogge appeared and called Nie Chiwu directly into the box.

"Something big has happened." Rogge's expression was extremely serious. "You'd better solve those things quickly! Something big has happened in Night City!"

"What? What big thing could possibly happen in Night City?" Nie Chiwu sat in a corner after entering the private room. He stretched and said lazily, "What happened in Night City is nothing more than Arasaka Corporation's business... what else could it be..."

"Could it be that someone from the Arasaka family is here? That would make me more interested..." Nie Chiwu said as he rubbed his nose.

"...Things are worse than you think." Rogge slammed the table. "This time, it's Saburo Arasaka who's coming. Do you understand? That local tyrant! The absolute core of Arasaka Corporation! Do you know what this means?"

"He definitely came to Night City for something! There's definitely something here that could attract him!" Rogge said anxiously, "And it's not just him! Arasaka Yorinobu... is already in Night City!"

"Someone saw Arasaka Yorinobu check into a hotel in Night City," said Rogge. "Arasaka Yorinobu, and Arasaka Saburo... these bigwigs are coming to Night City one after another. There must be a reason."

Rogge stared at Nie Chiwu: "You know what I'm talking about."

"Arasaka Yorinobu is here?" Nie Chiwu's eyes lit up. "That's great... Where does he live?"

"What are you planning to do?" Rogge said, alert. "Do you know that if this continues, the entire Night City will be in danger? With Saburo Arasaka's power... if he fights without considering the cost, he can wipe the entire Night City off the map in just ten minutes."

"I know, but isn't Saburo Arasaka planning to come to Night City himself?" Nie Chiwu waved his hand. "He can't wipe himself out of the picture, can he?"

"But...thank you for the information." Nie Chiwu scratched his chin: "Arasaka Yorinobu..."

"Let me think about how to get him to contact us..."

--------------

"What the hell is that monster?"

At the same time, on the other side, Arasaka Yorinobu was investigating what he saw on the hovercraft.

The silver-white horse-like monster left a deep impression on Arasaka Yorinobu.

And those strange people holding huge weapons... made Arasaka Yorinobu frown.

"A guy with a huge weapon..."

Arasaka Yorinobu was searching through the database, looking at the information he had obtained using his own resources, and he quickly locked onto a group of guys who were somewhat close to his target.

And... Arasaka Yoshinobu discovered that these guys seemed to be somewhat related to the reason why he came to Night City, that drug.

"A gang calling themselves Hunters... doing good deeds all over Night City?" Arasaka Yorinobu's face fell into a brief moment of confusion. "Doing good deeds? Just in the past two weeks?"

Arasaka Yorinobu flipped a few pages in disbelief.

It was discovered that in the past half month alone, the hunters had destroyed more than 30 criminal strongholds, an average of more than two per day.

As for other events, there are countless...

"The leader of the hunters... is called the Grand Commander..." Arasaka Yorinobu's eyes gleamed. "We need to find a way to contact him."

I felt a bit windy, maybe I caught a cold. I still feel dizzy after sleeping all night. I'll sleep for a while and see if I can update.

Chapter 221 Arasaka Father and Son's Attention to Hunters

During the short time since arriving in Night City, Arasaka Yoriaki has already discovered many things wrong with Night City.

The current situation here... is completely different from the extremely chaotic situation he imagined.

Arasaka Yorinobu originally remembered that Night City should have a large number of black industries, but now...

The black industries in Night City are about to be wiped out, especially the scavengers in the human-related businesses, which are almost being cleaned out.

It was as if those guys hadn't considered the consequences at all, relying solely on their overwhelming power to clear out the scavengers in Night City one by one...

Arasaka Yorinobu investigated the matter as much as possible and finally found some remaining information from his own intelligence source, which also included a recorded video of Mewtwo.

In the Mewtwo that was made with the information recorded by the scavenger's prosthetic body, Arasaka Yoriaki saw with his own eyes a young man with light blue hair, holding a medieval-style long sword in one hand and a small shield in the other. He easily used the sword to break open the safe house where the scavenger was hiding.

The safe house that was strong enough to withstand most attacks was easily cut in front of the light blue-haired young man like butter being cut by a hot red iron knife.

The scavenger leader shot at the young man in fear, but when the bullets flew towards the light blue-haired young man, they were easily shot down and cut in half by the sword in mid-air, without even touching the corner of the blue-haired young man's clothes.

In Mewtwo, Arasaka Yorinobu could even feel the fear and despair that the scavenger leader felt when facing the light blue-haired young man.

When the safe house was broken into, those lying on the ground outside were all scavengers who had been eliminated.

The young man single-handedly used the sword that looked like a medieval collectible to eliminate all the scavengers here.

Finally, the young man looked at the scavenger leader from Mewtwo's perspective, raised the sword in his hand, and seemed helpless and sad.

When Mewtwo was interrupted, Arasaka Yorinobu looked a little unhappy. He stood up from the sofa, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window and looked down at the scenery of Night City outside.

"hunter……"

Arasaka Yorinobu rubbed his forehead and felt a headache.

This group of [members] who suddenly appeared in Night City have a style that is completely different from Night City.

The weapons they used were extremely crude, and there weren't even any traces of technology on them... but they were incredibly powerful.

Guns are of little use when hitting them. They can even defeat their opponents with mines and grenades. The most important thing is that all kinds of hackers have no effect on them. Even their prostheses cannot be scanned... It's as if they don't have any prostheses at all.

The Mewtwo just now is one of the evidences...

"What exactly are they trying to do by doing these things in Night City?" Arasaka Yorimoto was calculating and thinking in his mind, and information about the hunters kept emerging in his cyborg, and even some relatively close information.

Arasaka Yorinobu wants to find out the hunters' purpose and prevent Arasaka Saburo from getting anything from them...

Among those pieces of information, Arasaka Yorinobu suddenly saw something.

It wasn't the Hunters who dealt with the scavengers, but a member of the self-proclaimed Cyberpunk Edgewalkers who carried weapons similar to the Hunters...

Arasaka Yorinobu swiped his hand in the air and dragged the information in front of him.

"David...Martinez?"

Arasaka Yorinobu seemed to have thought of something vaguely, and immediately retrieved all the information about David. Then he unexpectedly discovered that this young guy was actually related to Arasaka... He was actually a student of Arasaka Academy not long ago?

"A new member of the Edgewalker named Mann...who recently dropped out of Arasaka Academy?"

Arasaka Yorinobu looked at the gunpowder on David's back in the video, which was similar to the style of other hunters, and fell into deep thought.

"Maybe... there's a connection between him and the Hunter?"

Arasaka Yorinobu was thinking this, but what he didn't realize was that the network he was hiding in had been pried open by a hacker from nowhere, and a lot of his information was taken out...including the things he was investigating.

"Ah..."

David, who was sitting in the back seat of the car, was sharpening his rifle with a whetstone when he suddenly sneezed loudly. He then rubbed his nose and said, "It's like I suddenly caught a cold..."

"Ha, you might as well get a decent prosthetic, a synthetic lung! You'll definitely stop sneezing!" Mann, sitting on the other side of the back seat, patted David's back hard and said, "Today's job is going to be tough, so hurry up."

"I understand." David put his thoughts aside and continued to sharpen his rifle.

Although David didn't know why just two strokes of the whetstone could make the gun's power increase again, and even repair some minor damage to the blade, previous experience had taught David that sometimes giving up thinking appropriately was a reasonable choice.

However, when he was giving himself the whetstone, for some reason, the commander-in-chief mysteriously gave him a secret bag.

It said that if you were ever in a crisis, you could open the treasure bag and take a look, but you must not open it unless it was absolutely necessary...

David looked at the sachet with curiosity, but also felt a bit mysterious. He was afraid that if he opened it prematurely, the sachet would no longer work...

As David was thinking about this, he suddenly sneezed loudly again.

"Could it be that someone is really thinking about me?" David thought doubtfully, then looked in the direction of the other car.

Unlike the car that was packed with Pyrrha, Falco, Mann, and me, the remaining female members were in another car...

David suspected that Lucy was thinking about him, but he had no evidence.

David looked away regretfully.

What David didn't know at the moment was...

The information about him had been presented to another important figure at some point.

"David Martinez..."

Saburo Arasaka looked at the news his hacker had just received from Yorinobu Arasaka, and fell into deep thought about his son's sudden desire to contact a little guy who had just become an edgewalker.

"If you can't find any information on those other strange guys, find all of David's information," Arasaka Saburo ordered. "Before I arrive in Night City."

Chapter 222 David is Targeted

Just a dozen minutes after the two sneezes, David and Mann and others had just arrived at the mission location assigned by the middleman when they received a call.

David answered the phone while dealing with the gangs, and then he saw the principal of Arasaka Academy with a nervous and hateful face.

"Mr. Martinez, it seems very noisy over there...I wonder if you are free now?"

The principal spoke to David nervously and urgently, "Regarding your dropping out of school a few days ago... We've already investigated. Your mother, Ms. Gloria, had some sort of accident recently, correct?"

"Taking into account your family situation and your excellent academic performance, we have decided to apply for a scholarship from Arasaka Corporation for you so that you can return to school, and..."

Looking at the principal chattering on the screen, David was a little confused.

Because he knew that if he installed Sian Westin to beat up Katsuo Tanaka, he might get into trouble, so he simply dropped out of school on the grounds that he could not afford the tuition due to a family accident.

But why did the principal seem to be keeping an eye on him? Was someone trying to capture him for experiments again?

Did the fact that I was using Swanwestin get noticed so quickly?

But why so fast?

David thought this while blocking the bullets with his rifle shield.

Then David rejected the principal without hesitation and hung up the phone without looking at the principal's reaction.

After the principal was hung up, he became even more nervous and called another person to report the matter.

And in Night City, people soon took action.

Those people quickly approached David's house. Wearing various casual clothes, they ran directly to the floor where David's house was and gradually approached.

And now Gloria is recuperating at home...

This is also the information about David that the outside world knows.

Arasaka's actions were much faster than David had imagined. Only three minutes after David rejected the principal, the hired personnel affiliated with Arasaka had arrived at David's door and began to crack the lock on David's door.

David and all the hunters knew nothing about this matter...

Soon, the Arasaka people unlocked the door of David's house, turned on the scanning of their artificial eyes, pushed the door open with guns in hand, and prepared to enter David's house and take Gloria away directly.
