People are in cyberpunk, but they are top-level cyberpsychopaths

David slowly raised his hand and placed it on his forehead, trying to block out the glaring surgical light.

"To put it simply, if you can't wake up again, you may never wake up again."

Lao Wei turned off the operating light and spoke the most terrifying words in the calmest voice.

"...Is it that serious? Lao Wei, please don't scare me."

"When has Lao Wei ever lied to you?" Victor glanced at him and continued, "So, where did you get that biochip from?"

Since he couldn't detect the specific condition of David's body, Victor did not separate the relic from his body to avoid more serious accidents.

However, when David heard Lao Wei's question, he rubbed his head and said, "Well... Actually, I bought it from a black merchant on Twisting Street. It was said to be the latest model of black Super Dream, so I plugged it in without thinking."

"...Dark Mewtwo?"

Lao Wei stared at him for a few seconds and said, "Okay, let's just take it as it is. But if you install some plug-ins of unknown origin again, you may really appear on the scavenger's operating table when you wake up again..."

Dr. Victor started his nagging educational mode again.

David also agreed in a perfunctory manner, but he didn't listen in one ear and out the other. Instead, he questioned the system.

"Hey, system, are you here? What the hell is going on?! Why didn't you warn me of such a big risk in advance?!"

[Ding, the system prompts that there is no risk in this repair. ]

"No risk? No risk that Old Wei will say that I might never wake up?!"

[Ding, this is a necessary process. During the repair process, you will experience the memory of the chip personality.]

[However, this forced interruption may cause the chip repair to fail. ]

"Failure? Come on! Can't you fix it again?!"

As soon as he heard the word "possible failure", he sent it immediately.

Isn't this a joke? If Johnny Silverhand is killed like this, it will be really not fun.

[Ding, there is only one chance to repair the chip, and it cannot be repaired again. ]

You fucking...

"Hey, are you listening to me?"

Lao Wei's voice caused his dazed face to fluctuate again, like a bitter gourd.

“Listening...Listening....”

This decadent look on his face also dispelled Lao Wei's idea of ​​preaching. He reached out and patted his shoulder and said, "Okay, since everything is fine, get up quickly and take your girlfriend away from here."

"Girlfriend? You mean Lucy?!"

As he said this, he suddenly recalled Lucy's call when he was imprisoned in his memories, and he stood up immediately.

"Don't worry, take it easy."

Lao Wei reminded him kindly, but he didn't hear it because there was a hacker chair in front of him, and Lucy was lying on it in black clothes, with a thick data cable connected to the deep-diving device on the back of her head.

"She...Lucy, what happened to her?"

"She's fine... and she's almost awake." Old Wei glanced at Lucy with a smile in his eyes. "Your girlfriend is really nice to you. When she heard that entering cyberspace might bring back your consciousness, she decided to do it without any hesitation."

"You have to treat others well." Lao Wei said earnestly.

However, David looked at Lucy with a complicated look.

He knew what the black customer service represented to Lucy. In order not to recall her terrible childhood experience, Lucy always refused to wear this dress.

And for Lucy's sake, he never suggested that Lucy wear black clothes.

But now, he put on this dress for himself, and he really didn't know what to say.

"Well...."

At this moment, Lucy, who was lying on the hacker chair, trembled her eyelids slightly and slowly opened them.

"...David!"

Seeing David wake up safely and sitting on the operating chair, Lucy became a little excited and immediately reached out to unplug the data cable of the deep-sea device on the back of her head.

"Hi...Hi~Lucy..."

Before he could finish, Lucy threw herself on him in an instant, wrapping her arms around his neck tightly.

"Great, David, you finally woke up....It's really great..."

For the first time, he discovered that Lucy's body was so warm, so light, and so soft.

Tears are so warm...

"I'm sorry, Lucy, for making you worry..."

David's body slowly relaxed and he gently held Lucy's fragile body, freeing one hand to gently stroke her hair.

This time, it seems that I have really gone too far...

I couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

"Alright, alright, stop showing off your affection in front of me and hurry up and leave. There will be other patients coming soon."

Having said that, Lao Wei pushed them off the operating chairs and started to chase people away.

"Tsk, there aren't any patients coming here... We are the only patients who always come here..."

David curled his lips in dissatisfaction and muttered something in his mind, but he didn't intend to say it out loud.

After all, that’s Lao Wei.

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

Half an hour later.

On the highway from Santo Domingo to the Bad Land, a red sports car was speeding on the nearly deserted road, followed by several motorcycles that were constantly throwing shurikens, hitting the back of the car and making a clanging sound.

The fighting between the two sides was so lively that it was as lively as the New Year's Day.

The guys on the motorcycle were also dressed very festively, wearing red coats, but with demon masks on their faces, they looked ferocious.

David, at this time, was sitting in the sports car, staring blankly at the blue sky with a look of despair.

"How did it suddenly become like this?"

This story started half an hour ago.

David and Lucy, who came out of Lao Wei's underground clinic, were talking about relic.

But just as I got to the point, I received a call from V, saying that he had been attacked.

Upon hearing the news, he immediately asked Lucy to go home and wait until the evening. He also rushed to the scene quickly and was pulled into the car without any explanation.

The result turned out like this...

The damn Arasaka ninja troops were chasing them endlessly, and all this was caused by the hot guy who was driving - Goro Takemura.

He was the bodyguard of the local tyrant Saburo Arasaka. He was framed and fired after Saburo Arasaka's death. He is the only person in the entire Arasaka who wants to find evidence to prove that Arasaka Yorinobu is the murderer.

But...

"Why the hell are you here?!"

David really didn't understand.

If it weren't for this bastard, they wouldn't be being hunted down now, and even have to run to this desolate place.

"Wo doesn't understand what Nisuo means by Senmo!"

He speaks with a terrible accent that tastes even punier than the sashimi sold by those street vendors in Night City.

God, I'm sick.

"Can you guys stay for a while to cultivate your relationship?"

V knocked out the magazine of the Copperhead in his hand, replaced it with a new one, and fired at the ninja troops behind him while shouting, "David, can you please help me?!!!"

Jack also kept shooting with his two most proud golden guns.

Although he didn't say anything, his words were all over the bullets that splashed out like water.

"Yes, yes, I'll do it right away, I'll do it right away..."

David shook his head helplessly when he heard this.

Now that his good brother has spoken, he naturally cannot be stingy.

He who was sitting in the passenger seat immediately turned around and jumped into the back seat, lying there.

"Let me see what level you guys are at..."

There was a flash of orange light in his eyes, and he quickly detected the data of this group of people.

But what surprised him was that these guys were actually quite strong, with their stats hovering around 65, almost catching up with Mower, and all of them were equipped with combat implants.

"As expected of the elite of Arasaka...but I am fighting against the elite!"

Swoosh! He disappeared from the vehicle in an instant.

David activated the Swansea Westin and landed steadily on the ground. At the same time, a slender mantis knife extended from each of his arms. It was the same model as Melissa's, and even a few centimeters longer.

hiss-

Those ninjas who could even block bullets had their heads chopped off by inertia. Blood splattered in the air along with their skulls, and finally fell to the ground, rolling around.

If you look closely, you can even clearly see their metal spines and the circuits connected to them.

The degree of modification of each one is second only to that of Adam Hammer.

The motorcycles rolled out with their remains, put them together, and exploded into a ball of fire on the spot.

But there were a few guys who were more alert. When they saw the blade displayed when he reappeared, they immediately abandoned their motorcycles and used single-molecule wires to tie the surrounding street lamps and swing them.

"Yoho, you still want to run?!"

David stretched out a hand toward them and swung it downward.

Suddenly, a huge force of gravity was applied to them, and they fell to the ground with a clang, creating deep pits.

The guy lying in it turned into a bloody mess in the blink of an eye.

But he was also nimble, and his intuition, which seemed to have been honed in battle, allowed him to dodge David's attack. He immediately released the single-molecule line, picked up the ninja sword behind him and fell from the sky.

"Go to hell!"

I don’t know whether David is dead or not, but he died quite thoroughly.

The chest was pierced by the sharp wolf claws, and blood slid down the blade, soaking David's clothes and staining them a layer of deep red.

"Tsk, why are you pretending to be cool in front of me?"

He curled his lips in disgust and casually swung his arm, throwing the guy away along with the blood on the implant like throwing away garbage.

"Hey, it's done~"

"すごい(so awesome)"

Takemura exclaimed as he stopped the sports car steadily.

He never expected that there would be such a talent in Night City. Facing the army of ninjas, even if he hadn't had his implants destroyed by the company, he wouldn't be able to deal with it so easily.

But in the hands of this ordinary-looking street boy, he couldn't last more than one round...

However, Jack and V in the car didn't think so.

If they had known that David could easily deal with these guys, they wouldn't have run away.

Even ran here from Watson District....
