Cyberpunk: Nirvana of Shoko Toyokawa

Miao Meng turned her head and looked at Xiangzi's bunk.

There was no one in the bunk, only some scattered documents pinned on the curtain.

So Miao Meng stretched out her legs and used her toes to hook open the curtain on the other side of her body.

Wow.

The curtain was lifted.

Not far away, Xiangzi was standing in front of a "white board" made of cloth curtains that was filled with important information, thinking.

"Our boss is like a robot vacuum cleaner that broke down when it was factory set!" Miao Meng said to Hai Ling with a smile, "I suspect that the word 'rest' doesn't even exist in her certified dictionary! I bet you, what she'll say next -"

"The time spent sitting in the car is already a rest time." Xiangzi said with his back to the two of them.

"Here."

Miao Meng made a "show" gesture to Hai Ling.

Hai Ling raised her eyebrows, picked up the [Black Unicorn] and the linoleum sheet for maintenance, and sat on her extremely clean and empty bed.

Chapter 207: Your excitement is above mine

Miao Meng and Hai Ling were chatting behind him, but they did not affect Xiangzi.

Xiangzi stood in front of the huge whiteboard covered with information.

The largest area in the middle of the whiteboard is a map of Phase 2 of the New Land Reclamation Project, which was drawn using the drawings provided by Mu and a drone.

Most of the map only has the basic planning images when the construction was approved. Only an area near the Pastel*Palettes area has a lot of details about the city added.

The area is heavily marked.

The most common one is "X", followed by "Δ".

"X" means that there are frequent exchanges of fire between mobile personnel, and it is not safe.

"Δ" means that there are people gathering here, but there are few signs of conflict. It may be a trading area, a base for small gangs, or both.

In the center of this area, there is a red " ".

This is where Xiangzi and others are now.

Xiangzi put the marker on his chin, looked at the map, and thought.

……

After the large-scale live performance of Hello, Happy World! [Hello, Happy World! ~Live Wonderland!] ended, Xiangzi immediately issued an order:

All members of Ave Mujica immediately took a bus to [Phase 2 of Reclamation New Land].

Xiangzi came to this live with the mentality of "if you don't succeed, you will die". Therefore, all the items were already prepared in the car. The five people did not make any adjustments, but drove the car directly and became the first group of people to enter [Phase 2 of Reclamation New Land].

Xiangzi had no plan to stay in the old town of Lezhicheng any longer.

Because the conflict between them and the arms dealers needs time to ease.

But this is not Xiangzi's main concern.

The reason why the weapons dealers have no power despite holding the weapons channels is that they are the most timid people in this land. They only dare to rely on the [Seven Bands] they rely on, and dare not attack rashly without the band's instructions... or in other words, they hope that no one will ever let them take the initiative to attack.

What Xiangzi was mainly worried about was the attack on them by the band.

It’s not [Seven Bands].

Now Xiangzi is not so afraid of [Seven Bands].

[Phase 2 of Reclamation Land] was exposed.

At a time when the Toyokawa family is showing an ambiguous attitude and taking probing actions, the Seven Bands definitely don't want Toyokawa to explore too deeply into the new land.

In order to stop Fengchuan's hand, this land must belong to a gang as soon as possible... a new master.

But the seven bands were restrained from each other and could not act on their own. After all, if any band gained a larger area of ​​land, it might cause dissatisfaction among other bands and make them the target of public criticism.

Therefore, Xiangzi boldly guessed:

At this moment, at this stage, [Seven Bands] should hope that “new bands with certain strength will emerge”.

And it was different from RAS and Morfonica at that time - Roselia suppressed RAS at that time, and Poppin'Party also took a conservative attitude in selecting the strength of newcomers -

This time, from the perspective of the interests of the [Seven Bands], they would hope that the new band would be stronger and control the area faster and better.

Because this can minimize Toyokawa's interference.

A new band, and a big company?

Of course it's the former.

As for the problem of competition for resources caused by the new band, we can slowly make long-term plans after solving the urgent problem of "the new place lacks gang management and Fengchuan may take advantage of it."

Xiangzi had thought of this before he blew up the wall of Michelle Park.

The exposure of [Phase 2 of Reclamation Land] is a major positive for Ave Mujica.

It can even be said that it was the only move Xiangzi could make to revitalize the situation at that time.

Eliminate the threat of Hello, Happy World!, take control of the opening time of the new land, and become the first organization to enter the new land...

This move has numerous advantages.

There is only one drawback.

"(I am prone to death.)"

Xiangzi thought.

However, now I have survived that live.

Now there are no disadvantages.

As long as you survive, everything will be fine.

Xiangzi looked at the map.

There is no need to worry about the "Seven Bands". What Xiangzi is mainly worried about is the impact on the band power brought by small and medium-sized bands.

Ave Mujica stole the show at the live performance of Hello, Happy World! - although she has maintained a certain degree of low profile - but being low-key in an occasion where she is in the spotlight cannot be considered low-key.

Now, Xiangzi doesn't even need to check the bars and gray websites in the City of Music to think that there must be many small and medium-sized bands eyeing Ave Mujica.

These small and medium-sized bands have their own thugs, hackers and freelance mercenaries, as well as streets they have spent countless years on and are as familiar to them as the patterns on the handles of their favorite guns.

As soon as [Phase 2 of Reclamation New Land] was opened, everyone knew: if they wanted to soar into the New Land, Ave Mujica would be their biggest enemy.

Ave Mujica could not linger in the old town. In the old town, someone would jump out from a place Xiangzi didn't know or could not imagine, and easily end her life with a gun, a knife or a bag of flour with explosives.

And such assassins must be lining up in turns.

So Xiangzi entered [Phase 2 of Reclamation Land] as soon as possible.

Outside, many bands were besieging and hunting Ave Mujica.

But inside, everyone competes on the same stage.

Ave Mujica is still the most eye-catching seeded player in this competition, but if the contestants want to beat them, they must first consider whether someone is watching them secretly.

Up to this point, everything was going according to the best plan that Xiangzi had expected.

but……

Things in the world can't always go as we wish.

The subsequent progress became a little less smooth.

Xiangzi picked up the marker and put an "X" on the area they were going to today.

“(The situation is too chaotic.)”

Xiangzi thought.

……

Before going to the live show of Hello, Happy World!, Shoko used the AI ​​software [Mujina Carniva] to gather "believers" who were willing to act together.

After the explosion, she also brought them into [Phase 2 of Reclamation New Land].

Of course, not all believers came.

After all, some people still hesitate to give up their current relatively stable life and put life and death aside.

However, Xiangzi originally selected his believers based on the degree of their "madness".

Therefore, the efficiency of the mobilization was not bad, with about a hundred people coming.

In Xiangzi's conception, Ave Mujica and its believers were the first to move in, with more than a hundred people, which must be the largest group in the current [Phase 2 of Reclamation New Land].

As long as you take advantage of your numbers and get the snowball rolling, it will become very easy to compete for resources, continue to attract people, and secure your position.

Xiangzi had looked at the map beforehand.

In order to avoid the largest entrance where a battlefield would most likely form, she chose a farther, more remote location that she had long been eyeing.

There is only one entrance, and it is only one kilometer away.

This means that everyone who wants to enter must pass through the same area.

In this way, Xiangzi can develop while the fierce battle at the entrance hinders and delays the latecomers. Ave Mujica can take advantage of the exhausted forces escaping from the entrance, wait for them to tire, swallow up their weapons, ammunition and supplies, and reap the benefits.

Even if someone opened a new entrance, that would be a matter for later. Xiangzi only had to be alert to the opening of new entrances and constantly move the scope of his own influence.

Perfect plan.

Ave Mujica will own the land in a short time.

...This is what Xiangzi planned.

But she miscalculated a little.

Hello, Happy World!

This unpredictable band, whose minds were never fully understood, did one thing.

That very night, just as Ave Mujica entered the [Phase 2 of Reclamation Land] and was still heading towards the designated area, a huge explosion was heard behind Xiangzi.

Fires were lit behind the convoy on Ave Mujica.

Another explosion.

Not fried at Ave Mujica.

It's Hello, Happy World! fried.

Hello, Happy World! I have built all the walls from the outer perimeter of [Michelle Park] to [Phase 2 of Reclamation Land], which is over kilometers long.

All of them were blown up.

Chapter 208: The grid in front of the house is filled with barbarians and other players

Hello, Happy World! Blow up all the walls.

This unexpected step disrupted Xiangzi's plan.

Now, Ave Mujica’s situation became very embarrassing.

The site Xiangzi originally planned to build was farther and more remote than the entrance Xiangzi had blasted open. Considering that a large number of personnel would require a large amount of external materials, in order to facilitate the circulation of materials, the site was chosen to be quite close to the outer edge of the second phase of the reclamation site.

But now, with all the walls removed, the site would be too close to the border between Michelle Park and Reclamation Land Phase 2.

The borders are bound to be the places where the most fighting will occur. There is no doubt that this plan will become very unsafe.

It is true that Xiangzi brought many "believers" with him.

But what Xiangzi selects are those who have nothing but desires and ambitions, and are eager to do something.

in other words.

The [believers] of Ave Mujica are almost all young people who are penniless.

No weapons, no combat experience, and no management experience.
