Cyberpunk: Nirvana of Shoko Toyokawa

From deep within the passage above came chaotic noises.

Some people were shooting, some were moving, some were hit by something and made dull cries.

The sound of radio waves and the sound of prosthetics being activated echoed in the passage.

The small group of private soldiers of the Toyokawa family did not seem to be marching forward in an organized and disciplined manner, nor did they seem to be thrown into disarray by the flood.

They sounded like they were...under attack.

Chirp, chirp.

A mechanical sound came from the depths.

That sounds like a lot.

Xiangzi scanned the distance.

There are more than just private soldiers there!

There are also machines there!

[Amoris: It seems that this place is under the jurisdiction of the Urban Construction Bureau! ]

Bang!

Some shadows flew into the range that Xiangzi could see with his naked eyes - and some fell from the stairs -

Some are easy to identify: they are the private soldiers of the Toyokawa family.

Others have orange-yellow iron shells.

Xiangzi was stunned for a moment before he realized what those were.

Round head, universal wheel protected by the hub...

It's a road safety automatic construction robot!

The most common one in [Phase 2 of Reclamation New Land]!

At this moment, these construction robots have obviously entered an abnormal state.

These guys who were originally just transporting urban construction materials slowly started to go crazy.

Their warning lights were glowing red. They were now engaging everything they could see, including the Toyokawa family's private soldiers.

[…In order to prevent the invasion of refugees, the automatic construction robots have the most basic defense capabilities…]

Xiangzi seemed to have heard similar commentary on the radio.

However, this was the first time she had seen this happen with her own eyes.

The robots have cannon barrels extending from their round heads like mini turrets, and are currently engaging the Toyokawa family's private soldiers.

[Amoris: How many groups of people are there here? ]

It seems that the reason why MyGO!!!!!'s Lenai was able to invade here so easily is because the city construction robots are causing trouble!

Originally, near the bottom of the aquarium, a flood occurred because of the wall blast on Ave Mujica!

At this moment, there are also these invading city construction robots...

The situation has become even more confusing!

Where did the other party catch the urban construction robot?

[Oblivionis: Hacking?]

【Mortis: It's physical intervention. The circuit board has been modified——】

Chaos is at least Ave Mujica's chance.

In this way, the space available for operation is——

【Doloris: Watch out! 】

chap!

A sharp sound came from the direction of the water curtain.

As Xiangzi, Chuhua and Hailing retreated, their suppression power on the front decreased.

Lenai found the right opportunity and deflected the water curtain and the gunshot.

Just an angle.

However, only one angle is needed.

The blue light lit up, drawing a band of light in the humid air.

In an instant, Le Nai flew in front of Xiangzi, Chuhua and Hailing.

The mantis knife stabbed forward.

Xiangzi saw two-colored eyes like those of cats.

Clap!

Broken glass flew all over the place.

The mantis blade that was blocked from the side by the [Black Unicorn] pierced the huge glass tank, leaving a long arc on the glass.

Glass flew everywhere as the mantis knife was pulled out.

The entire top panel and half of the side panel of the glass jar were shattered, and the broken glass dust that was raised reflected a splashing light in the firelight.

Hai Ling put away her knife and prepared for the next attack.

Le Nai leaned sideways and reached behind Hai Ling.

But Chuhua had already inserted into Hailing's back.

Chu Hua blocked the [DS-1 Pulse] in front of him and grabbed the bottom side of the Mantis Blade with his hand.

Le Nai pulled back. She began to look for the entry point she had captured with her keen intuition before - Xiangzi and Deng -

Lenai saw that Deng was still conscious.

Deng was coughing and trying to climb out of the tank.

But Xiangzi had already retreated.

Xiangzi retreated to the stairs.

While Chuhua and Hailing blocked Le Na, Xiangzi held [Pride] and put it on the head of a private soldier of Fengchuan who had just fallen from above.

"Move forward!"

Xiangzi threatened him.

Chapter 304: The Collapse of Civilization Competition

Shoko pointed his gun at the back of the head of Toyokawa's private soldier and forced him to move forward.

"...!"

In front, Le Nai noticed the situation here and tried to get closer, but Chu Hua and Hai Ling blocked all the directions she could move forward from the angle.

The threatened Toyokawa family soldier slowly climbed up. With the pistol pressed against his brain-computer interface, he could only walk towards the large glass tank.

"Walk."

Xiangzi said.

The cold muzzle of the gun touched the back of Fengchuan's private soldier's neck. He stepped forward.

"..."

Xiangzi had a blank expression on his face.

However, her heart was not as calm as before.

Xiangzi originally planned to take advantage of the water flow to let Chuhua and Hailing take the lamp away.

However, two variables have now emerged.

One is that the lights are in a hard to touch state.

The second thing was that Le Nai rushed in and restrained Chu Hua and Hai Ling.

These two points alone did not actually bother Xiangzi very much.

Xiangzi also considered situations where it was inconvenient to contact them. For example, as it was now, he could let the private soldiers of the Toyokawa family make contact first.

After all, Le Nai is only holding one person back. Xiangzi can ask Miao Meng and Mu to allocate computing power to carry out support attacks and escape.

However, Xiangzi sensed a sense of incongruity.

The further the situation progresses, the stronger this sense of disharmony becomes.

"(What is it?)"

Xiangzi was thinking.

"(Are there more than just these two variables?)"

Le Nai is trying to break through, while Chu Hua and Hai Ling are resisting.

The Toyokawa family's private soldiers slowly moved forward, following Shoko's instructions, and approached the lamp that was rising from the ground.

There is a third variable in the status quo.

As he watched the Toyokawa family's private soldiers slowly approaching, Shoko suddenly realized the key.

"(Toyokawa family, enter...)"

The entry of the Toyokawa family seemed to be the entry of a force that had already known about the incident and wanted to seize the lamp and its secrets.

Their private soldiers were tied up and did not cause any direct trouble to Xiangzi for the time being... at least, they did not cause any decisive trouble in the evacuation.

Therefore, the harm caused by this situation was not obvious at first.

But the actual impact is much greater than this.

The entry of the Toyokawa family affected the [Seven Bands].

The [Seven Bands] were originally afraid of the Toyokawa family's actions, so they did not enter immediately after the [Reclamation New Land Phase 2] was blocked.

Now, when Fengchuan moved, the [Seven Bands] also moved immediately.

The evidence is that they have driven vehicles - armed vehicles - into [Phase 2 of Reclamation New Land].

This indicates that they want to intervene in this matter.

All of these forces are on the scene but have not yet arrived.

Of course Xiangzi could continue with this plan and take the lamp away.

but……

“(This is no longer a question of taking it with you or not!)”

Xiangzi noticed this.

The reason why Xiangzi wanted to fight for the lamp - or more precisely, the reason why he wanted to fight for the person who carried the secret - was to use this secret to circulate among the [Seven Bands], and use it to exchange for tangible benefits that can be converted into cash to make up for the problem that [Phase 2 of Reclamation New Land] was opened too early and Ave Mujica did not have the decisive ability to make the final decision on this area.

In other words, Xiangzi's basis for action is based on the value of the "secret" to the [Seven Bands].

Why is it valuable?

With the strength of [Seven Bands], is it possible that they can't even get it from just one person?

...Originally, I really couldn’t get it.

Mocha's carjacking is prevented. Poppin'Party and Toyokawa's game.

No one wants this "secret" to fall into the hands of others.

As soon as one "big shot" made a move, another "big shot" would immediately come to stop him. There were even more "big shots" outside the venue, patiently waiting for the opportunity to enter the venue when the people in front were too busy to do anything.

Everyone is waiting for others to reveal a flaw.

Therefore, the [big guys] do not expect to rely on their own strength to rob and consume each other's strength.

Rather than fighting to the death or passing the parcel, the best option for the big shots is to have a third party holding a "secret" to conduct the auction and allow the big shots to "bid" in various senses.
