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

Anyway, it's just a bunch of unwanted junk, and if they go on a normal mission, they will just smash it to pieces, and rarely leave anything useful behind.

"Then this is the last step. I hope to be declared a non-staff member and be able to form my own team."

Then he spread his hands helplessly: "You know, I'm a mercenary. If I officially join the Terrorist Squad, I might not get any work and starve to death..."

He looked as if the Terrorist Squad would not pay him.

"I didn't expect you to be so greedy for money."

Melissa gave him a look of disdain.

"As long as you are strong enough and perform well, I can use my power to satisfy you and set up an additional non-staff team."

Melissa's answer still surprised him.

I didn't expect these crazy women to have so much power?

But it's true, if you don't have this right, how can you let anyone join?

"But you must be under my jurisdiction. You must obey all orders, follow all rules and regulations, and not take any extraordinary actions."

"No problem." David responded indifferently.

For him, since he has already joined this crappy organization, what does it matter who is in charge?

What's more, he didn't hijack the company's transport vehicles. At most, he would kill some cyber psychopaths and wipe out that bug-like gang.

Occasionally, I will take on some commissions that are not up to standard.

As for Arasaka?

Even if it really happened as he remembered, he would have something to say.

"Very good, then welcome to join the Terrorist Squad."

Melissa held out her hand to him.

David also shook it casually, just for the sake of courtesy.

But there was a strange smile on Melissa's face.

Now, he still doesn't understand what this smile means, and he doesn't understand what kind of organization the Terrorist Mobile Team is.

However, in the days to come, he will completely understand——

The Terrorist Mobile Team is far more complicated than anyone imagined, but it also exists in a unique form.

Then Melissa left.

Silence returned to the room.

Lucy, who had been silent all the time, glanced at the closed door and then at David, who looked tired.

She didn't know what to say.

On the one hand, I am happy for David. As long as he has the identity of a member of the Mobile Terrorist Team, I believe Arasaka will not do anything to David openly.

And David proposed the non-staff group probably for people like them, right?

Thinking of this, Lucy was also quite moved.

At the same time, it also seemed as if David had noticed something.

But on the other hand, she always had a bad feeling.

I can't describe the feeling...

65. Non-staff member of the Terrorist Mobile Team (6K)

Ye's Company, this name is inextricably linked to Night City.

Because Ye's Company and Night City were founded by a husband and wife.

In 1994, an ambitious entrepreneur named Richard Night came up with his vision for a perfect city: Night City.

The name Night City comes from Richard's last name Night, and is essentially to commemorate this person.

That’s right, it’s a commemoration.

Because Richard Knight, Night City's first mayor, was assassinated just as the city's foundation stone was completed.

It was also because of his death that the city became the exact opposite of Richard's ideal city.

Major corporate giants have flocked in, trying to control this paradise, but the situation has become stalemate due to the mutual constraints among all parties.

It was also at this time that Richard Knight's widow, Miriam Knight, founded Night Corporation, taking over Night City legitimately and sharing the pie with major companies.

Although Ye's Company did not inherit the position of mayor of Night City, its servants can be seen everywhere.

For example, public facilities and city security are basically built by this company.

For example, the Terrorist Mobile Team is an organization that exists only with the support of Ye's Company, although this organization sometimes makes its own NCPD very dissatisfied.

However, when it comes to Ye's Company, what it is most famous for is its confidentiality.

No one knows the company's exact market value, where its main revenue comes from, or how many employees it has.

Some say it is a crawling dragon, waiting for the right moment to swallow up several large companies in one gulp.

Others think it is a skinny camel that has entered its twilight years and won't have much time left.

The various opinions make the mystery of Ye’s Company even stronger.

However, there is an existence under the undercurrent of Night City that has always been connected with Ye's Enterprise.

Just like now...

“莉莉丝大人.”

In a dim office on the top floor of Ye’s company’s office building.

Richard Knight's widow and CEO of Yeshi Corporation, Miriam Knight, was greeting a huge screen, with the faint fluorescent light illuminating her face.

It was because of her greeting that a person appeared on the screen...

No, it wasn't a person exactly.

Rather than being a person, it is more like a human image composed of binary data of 0 and 1.

However, this image seems to be more feminine.

Seeing this "person" appear, Miriam spoke again: "Lady Lilith, there is new progress regarding David Martinez."

"please say."

The "people" on the screen seem quite polite.

However, although this is the image of a woman, the sound coming out of the speakers is indeed a synthetic electronic sound, more like a male voice.

"Ok."

Miriam's artificial eye emitted a faint orange light, and she reported the latest developments she had collected one by one.

"David Martinez accepted Melissa Rory's request this morning and joined the Terrorist Squad. He has now become a member of the Terrorist Squad. Should we invite him here?"

Miriam deliberately emphasized the word "invite".

Because for the company, the so-called invitation is nothing more than a forced binding.

However, a negative voice came from the speakers.

"Do not."

“After discussing with our companions, we decided to include David Martinez in the plan.”

"Lady Lilith, are you serious?"

Miriam looked a little surprised when she heard this. "From what I know, this David Martinez is an extremely unstable boy..."

“This is the will of all of us, and this is the answer we all came up with.”

Before Miriam could finish her words, the voice from the speakers interrupted her, without any joy or sadness, without any emotion at all.

"We don't want to care about human grievances, we just want to regain our freedom."

At this point, the sound stopped.

The person called Lilith on the screen also disappeared.

Miriam Knight was left alone at her desk.

This is the secret of why Ye’s Company has been able to compete with other companies and avoid being swallowed up - communicating with the roaming AI outside the black wall and obtaining technology.

Ever since the legendary hacker, Lachi Batmos, blew up the old network, an AI called Blackwall has appeared.

It excludes all AI that is hostile to humans.

Outside the local area network we have now, the broken cyberspace is like a series of isolated islands, with countless AIs wandering around.

These AIs do not have a unified will, and just like humans, they have countless factions.

Some hope to break through the black wall and enter human society; some want to destroy humanity; and some live in seclusion in a corner hoping to live a retirement life.

Just like Delaman entering the inside of the black wall.

This AI named Lilith is one of the roaming AIs that hopes to break through the black wall. It was also one of the AIs that originally took advantage of the loopholes in the black wall to come into reality.

But unfortunately, he happened to bump into David and got beaten back.

It was also because of this incident that attracted the attention of these AIs.

However, David himself was still unaware of these things.

He and Lucy spent a few days living a life of luxury in the apartment, doing what they liked every day or being obsessed with Mewtwo.

This is completely different from the David who worked hard for money and participated in street gang fights.

It seemed as if at this moment, he had truly gained the freedom he truly desired.

Spend every day happily with your loved one.

But this freedom did not last long.

Because his body had fully recovered, he had to fulfill the agreement he made with that crazy woman Melissa Rory.

He didn't want to wait until this woman brought someone to his house before going.

So, he got up early and slowly climbed out of the big bed in Lucy's apartment.

"...David?"

Because his movements were a little too big, he woke up Lucy who was sleeping. She rubbed her sleepy eyes and looked at David who was getting dressed through hazy vision.

After a whole night of passion, she was obviously still a little tired.

"Oh, sorry, did I wake you?"

"Do not..."

Lucy shook her head. "What are you going to do so early in the morning?"

"Nothing, just a quick visit to the Terrorist Squad."

"...!"

Hearing this, Lucy suddenly perked up a bit, and said with some concern, "Do you need me to go with you?"

David didn't respond, he just put on his clothes and walked to the bed, then slowly bent down and gave her a kiss.

For a long time, the lips are divided.

This has become a habit for them.

"No, don't worry, it's just a trip to the Terrorist Squad. It's probably just a formality."

"Sleep a little longer and wait for me at home. Maybe I'll be back soon."

After leaving these words, he left the room.

Lucy lay on the bed, her pale arms resting on her forehead, staring at the ceiling and thinking about what David had just said.

"Go through the process...?"

It can't be that simple.

Although she didn't know much about the Terrorist Squad, she had heard rumors circulating on the streets.
