"Welcome to visit us next time." The female boss greeted the UMP9 and HK416, who were carrying a large number of weapons, with a standard pre-war business smile.

"G11, move your ass. I need to load my weapons." HK416 stuffed heavy firepower like plasma Gatling guns and laser Gatling guns into the car, while G11 reluctantly retreated to the back.

"What's wrong around here?" 416 asked via intercom, cursing.

"There are quite a few, but they're not from this store, and they're no better than the ones I've encountered before. Speaking of which, where's 45? You've all bought your things, but what's 45 doing? Off to play again, right?" G11 clicked on 45 several times in the chat.

[Stop clicking, stop clicking! I can't even be quiet for a moment. I just sent the information I'd been looking for to the Commander, and I even checked it out for you guys. I'm the one who's been working the hardest and making the most contributions.] 45's voice came from the channel.

416 and 9 gathered their weapons and boarded their cars, preparing to leave. 45 also suggested a route. Their destination was a hotel near the city center.

"Please stop halfway and let me get in the car. This route has the lowest chance of encountering enemies." 45 added. After completing her reconnaissance, she found a nearby shelter and crouched down, waiting for 9 to drive over to pick her up.

[45, where's the Commander? Do you know?] After backing up the car, 9 continued along the path.

I gave him Benny's name, and he said, "Oh my goodness, I'm getting a pillow when I'm sleepy, and a bowl of rice when I'm hungry. You guys take the stuff back to this hotel. It's got an automatic cannon inside, so you don't have to worry about losing anything. Afterwards, go play around." He repeated the original text exactly.

"This strange way of speaking is indeed what a commander would say." G11 nodded in conviction.

Team 404, laden with weapons, left the area in a strangely silent manner. Although they had been chatting happily in the channel, after G11 entered, no one spoke a word.

Under the somewhat uneasy gaze of the Silver Shock clerk, Team 404, who had remained abruptly silent, left their territory.

On the other side, near the center of Liberty City, Sun Yang was preparing to enter the gambling area with his M14.

The prosperity of New Vegas is that the further you go into the city, the more luxurious it becomes, and the closer you get to the outside, the more shabby and disorderly it becomes.

The innermost part of the city is a luxurious gambling district reminiscent of pre-war times. The outermost part of the city is home to a wide variety of entertainment facilities, from strip clubs and well-decorated casinos to restaurants and bathhouses with glittering signs. These are generally the targets of special protection by various gangs.

Beyond that, a chaotic mix of places existed, from underground black markets to small settlements. Mr. House of New Vegas, apart from a few fixed thoroughfares, which he negotiated with the NCR and protected well, didn't care about the rest.

After parting with Team 404, Sun Yang changed his clothes and dressed like a scavenger to sneak in inconspicuously. He didn't take anything with him, so even if a thief wanted to touch his pockets while he was distracted, they would only be able to touch the toilet paper that Sun Yang had put in his pocket after wiping his hands.

Although he felt a little sorry for 404, Sun Yang still felt that a task of this level should be easily completed. So Sun Yang put aside the cries of 404 who was being cheated while driving, and went to open a large room, placed a lot of Zidong artillery there, and hung a "No Trespassing" sign on the door.

At this time, 45 informed Sun Yang of the information he had obtained and told him the name Benny.

156 What is Benny? Why do you do this?

Who is Benny? Benny is the man who blew up the postman's head. He's a man who wears a black and white striped suit and plaid, and who always maintains his elegance and grace no matter the situation.

He is Mr. House's spokesperson. Before the postman came here to meet House, he was the one who enjoyed a status second only to the emperor.

But such a person was not willing to condescend to House. Benny used his own connections and worked with a data expert of the Apocalypse Followers, a genius who was familiar with pre-war technology, to create a machine.

This machine is called YESMAN, and it can monitor Mr. House's network transmissions and decrypt encrypted messages.

That's how Benny found the postman's package and route. If he hadn't known the route in advance, it would have been difficult for Benny to ambush the postman, who had incredible combat abilities and perception.

But the abilities of this good man go beyond that. Its programmers made it so powerful that it can replace Mr. House and take charge of the entire New Vegas.

He is programmed to effectively answer any question asked,

By using robots scattered throughout the Mojave, Mr. Nice Guy can continuously gather information from all over the Mojave and make the most reasonable inferences based on this information. Although it may not be completely accurate, it is more than enough to deal with the enemies in the wasteland.

As for Benny's goal, it's simple. He wants to kill House and become the master of New Vegas. He has already killed the programmer and is the only one who can control the Mr. Nice Guy program.

After that, as long as House is killed and Mr. Nice Guy's program - the neural computing matrix - is copied to Mr. House's host, all control of Mr. House's guards will be gained. The most important machine security will completely obey Mr. Nice Guy's orders, and Mr. Nice Guy will only obey Benny.

This arrogant and daring operation went smoothly at first. He used Mr. Nice Guy to search for communications, found the postman's location, ambushed her and shot her in the head. Then he returned to New Vegas with the platinum chip to prepare for the next move.

But what he didn't expect was that the postman's head was so strong that a 9mm bullet hitting her head didn't kill her. Even a few days later, Postman No. got up from the bed - as to whether his extremely low emotional intelligence and love of using a water gun to spray people were sequelae, it was not clear.

What's even more terrible is that the Victor robot that rescued Postman No. 6 was actually the robot arranged by Mr. House to rescue Postman No. 6.

Based on the information conveyed by Mr. Nice, Mr. House believed that Benny had a high probability of intercepting the route of Postman No. 6 through some means. However, Mr. House was not sure whether the platinum chip was in Benny's hands at this time.

What if this guy hid the chip or placed it somewhere with a time bomb in case he gets taken out?

Mr. House had always been extremely cautious when it came to the platinum chip. Therefore, even before a complete fallout, Mr. House had great patience.

On the other side, Benny found that his intention had been exposed and he dared not to meet House at all. If he did not meet House, he would not be able to win Mr. House's trust and would not be able to meet Mr. House in person.

It was impossible to rush in with people. The robots moving around in New Vegas were not vegetarians. The 9mm submachine guns and Gatling laser guns mounted on these robots were enough to kill Benny and his henchmen instantly.

Benny couldn't secretly bring in a bunch of plasma weapons and heavy protective suits under Mr. House's nose. That would be like telling Mr. House that I'm going to get you.

Even if they left here, it would be useless. They had to kill Mr. House and let Mr. Nice Guy take over the mainframe. Otherwise, everything else would be in vain. In the current situation, even Mr. Nice Guy, the machine, couldn't come up with any solution.

As for giving the chip away? Benny would never give it up, and he wouldn't return it to Mr. House. He refused to go back to his old life; he wanted to be the king of New Vegas.

So at the beginning of this story, Benny has been staying in his own Las Vegas district, in the territory of the President Gang, and he is always in a state of panic. He can't go anywhere, and he seems to be above everyone else, but in fact, most of his power comes from the authorization of Mr. House.

Even after so much time had passed, even after Sun Yang had arrived in Liberty City, Benny was still active in New Vegas. No, it was more like he didn't dare to go out, for he was afraid that if he did, he would be shot by Mr. House's robots.

So now he can only rely on money and manpower to do the work. This time, he was the one who hired the sniper. He probably realized that there was a lot of money in the car and wanted to grab it to expand his funds.

"I didn't expect that, brother Benny. You are still hanging out in New Vegas?" After listening to 45's report, Sun Yang felt ecstatic.

Sun Yang still remembered the main plot of New Vegas quite clearly. He had originally gone to great lengths to clear the Dead Money dungeon because he thought Benny would have already escaped, which was why he had given up on searching for the Platinum Chip.

After all, this thing is very useful to Mr. House, it is a life-saving thing, but for Sun Yang... this thing can be used to threaten House (disgusting face).

This platinum chip contains a complete upgrade system that allows the robots in the casino area that can only emit lasers and fire 9mm submachine guns to be directly upgraded.

Until now, the machine security here has been mainly relying on the Mark I operating system to run, but this system lacks the driver for the main weapons.

After the upgrade, the system will be upgraded to the Mark II operating system, which can activate the main combat equipment inside the machine.

In addition to submachine guns and laser guns, all robots can also activate missile launchers on their shoulders. The launchers store dozens of missiles for attacking land and air units at longer distances. For close-range targets, the robot security guard's other arm is equipped with a grenade rapid-fire system, which is enough to clear out large areas of enemies.

The chip also contains the driver for the machine's highly complex onboard automatic maintenance system. If damage occurs in combat, these machines will perform self-repair and self-destruction.

Although the combat effectiveness of these machine security guards is still not enough when fighting against humanoids, for the people in this world, this level of firepower increase is already terrifying.

And this is why Mr. House values ​​this chip so much. If someone figures out what this chip is used for, he will be completely passive.

However, Sun Yang never expected that this guy was still in the gambling district. He temporarily changed his schedule and planned to go directly to meet Benny and get the chip directly.

157 Benny~I'm coming to see you~

"Please undergo a credit check or show your passport before entering. Intruders will be shot." A mechanical, stiff voice sounded.

A square, one-wheeled robot stood there, its back facing the entrance to the gambling district. Facing the people, the robot displayed a black and white screen with a cartoon police officer's head on it.

At the entrance to the gambling area, there are more than a dozen such machine security guards, always alert to the surroundings.

These robots, equipped with AI that can handle basic policing situations, wander aimlessly through the streets at the entrances and inside the casinos.

The person at the door is responsible for checking whether the gamblers have enough salary to go in and play - the gambling area does not welcome poor people to come in, and you can't enter without paying a deposit of 2,000 bottle caps.

And those wealthy tourists are unwilling to stay with people who don't have any money in their pockets. Of course, if you have a specially issued passport, you can also play in the gambling area.

The robots inside the casino area are specifically designed to deal with those who are not calm enough and want to pull out guns to kill people or fight in the street. At this time, the robot will rush up and beat the person up, and then throw him out of the casino area.

If you fire a gun in the casino area, sorry, the robots in New Vegas will let you know the power of a hard iron shell and a 9mm submachine gun.

Sun Yang shoved a bag of freshly made bottle caps over. The security guard scanned the bag and let Sun Yang enter the casino area with his M14.

"Wow, Commander, how come this robot even scans humans? Luckily, our signal camouflage technology is very sophisticated. The data the robot generated only matches human characteristics." M14 complained in the communication channel.

"I just hope that when they scan me, they don't doubt whether I am a human being or not." Sun Yang muttered to himself, but these robot security guards ignored Sun Yang at all. They just carried the bag, with the unicycle below spinning wildly, and ran to the nearby warehouse to deposit the customer's deposit.

After entering the casino area, Sun Yang was a little surprised by the luxury in front of him.

The road was very smooth and well-maintained, with beautiful green plants on both sides. The street was full of people wearing messy clothes and coming here to have fun and throw money.

There were also many soldiers in NCR uniforms wandering around the streets in groups of three or five, and many dancers in revealing and provocative clothing were showing off their figures on the street.

The casino area is basically composed of four large and luxurious casinos. Each casino is equipped with extremely exquisite services, including watching movies, dramas, stage plays, singing, bathing, sauna and massage, sexual (harmony) services, playing billiards, smoking hookah, everything you need is available.

Either way, it's a service that's hard to come by in the wasteland.

There are even places around the casino that provide second-rate services to people who don't have much money in their pockets.

New Vegas is ablaze with lights. When night falls, only this place remains ablaze with brightness. From the neatly arranged streetlights to the exaggerated neon signs of the major casinos, they all advertise the wasteland's luxury and civilization.

In addition, there is an NCR embassy nearby. There is a direct subway from the camp to the gambling district. Many NCR soldiers will rush into the casino to gamble as soon as they receive their salary and leave.

If they won, they would go out to have a nice meal with a prostitute, then crawl around drunk. If they lost and had only a small amount of money left, they would run to a cheaper street vendor, sell a lot of beer, and then shout on the street with a group of their friends.

These NCR soldiers and tourists from all over the United States brought unprecedented profits to New Vegas. The cooperation with NCR also reduced Mr. House's security pressure and earned him a lot of money from NCR soldiers.

"I see. No wonder everyone is so yearning for this place." Sun Yang didn't have any opinion. It was just a beautifully built casino and a comprehensive entertainment center with rich services.

Unfortunately, Sun Yang, having experienced modern life, wasn't interested in these services at all. I don't like watching those plays and musicals you mentioned. You're a pretty good singer, but that's about it. I don't smoke or drink, and I find the people you patronize dirty.

Compared to all these things, it's more fun to play pranks on Mr. House. Playing so many tricks on him is not as fun as watching Mr. House's defenses break down.

At first glance, it looks pretty good. But in this place, there are no cute anime characters, no touch-screen phones, no game consoles, and no computers with GTX3080 graphics cards.

Damn, there's not even a part about playing games with you, what are you trying to trick me with? Mr. House, your life before the war was just like this.

Sun Yang led the M14 and followed the instructions all the way to the casino. Benny's gang was called the Chairman Gang, and the "Shanghaojia" casino they operated had always been a prosperous business.

It's so easy to get distracted by a potato chip sign. Sun Yang complained to himself as he found the casino's main entrance. Near the entrance, several prostitutes, wearing provocative clothing and only black tape covering their private parts, were still posing.

"Wow, pre-war America was like this? You call this civilized?" M14 grumbled at the scene before him. The people around him didn't seem to be disgusted by it at all; many even watched with interest.

The NCR soldiers nearby kept whistling at her, and after she finished dancing, several of them grabbed a stack of money and went over to trade her for sex.

It's hard to say, maybe it really is like this. After all, it's the original Monopoly Casino, so it would be strange not to provide this kind of service. The so-called civilization only refers to the lifestyle of civilized society, not anything else. Sun Yang could only shrug at this. At least the tourists here quite like it.

Sun Yang remained silent as he continued to show M14 around. The entire journey was filled with the sound of M14 mumbling to himself on the radio channel.

They soon stepped into the door of Shanghaojia. Inside the store, a group of men and women in suits who looked tough were guarding the door. These people had submachine guns on their waists and looked very combat-ready.

"Welcome to Shanghaojia Casino, have fun." The gangsters at the door said politely. They had received special training long ago and knew what to say and what not to say.

In short, just say hello, answer any questions the guests have, and tell the front desk if you can't answer them. Generally, they ask what fun things to do and how much they cost.

Sun Yang nodded like a fool and continued walking inside with M14. This casino covers a large area and has everything from traditional blackjack and roulette to rows of slot machines.

The carpeted floor, clean white walls, and green plants in the corners all create a relaxing atmosphere. The luxurious and beautiful chandeliers above the casino illuminate the interior as brightly as day, and the area is bustling with tourists, all trying their best to win money.

Dealers and waiters in lewd attire roamed the area, serving drinks and snacks. Tourists sat at slot machines or card tables, clutching their casino chips, glued to their screens or tightly gripping their cards.

The casino was very noisy and bustling. It was impossible to hear anything clearly from a distance in such an environment.

"M14, look for someone wearing a black and white plaid suit and surrounded by the president's bodyguards," Sun Yang whispered in M14's ear. Then, he and M14 split up. Sun Yang exchanged chips while M14 wandered around looking for someone.

The humanoid's powerful visual search ability is much stronger than Sun Yang's. When Sun Yang returned to M14 with two hundred chips, she had already identified the person who met the requirements.

At the bar counter, far from the center of the casino, there was a young man wearing a black and white plaid suit and short black hair. He wasn't particularly handsome, but he looked quite energetic. He only drank from his drink and took out a cigar from his pocket to smoke.

If there's one thing Sun Yang admires most about Benny in the original novel, it's his optimism and courage. He's only shocked when the postman actually appears before him; otherwise, he speaks to people in a frivolous and cheerful tone.

He even said that after he escaped, he was caught by Caesar's legions, tied up and pinned to the ground. Faced with the postman who was chasing him again, he still maintained enough composure to say to the postman: "Laugh, baby, I can still make a joke in this situation. You deserve it."

Even when he knew he was about to be killed by the postman, he asked the postman to make good use of Mr. Good and not let his previous efforts go to waste. Before he died, he left a last word:

"Go ahead and leave me a Vegas of my dreams."

He is a very open-minded person, with optimism and courage, two rare and valuable qualities. Even in the most desperate situation, he can still make his own hellish jokes.

Even now, he has not fallen into complete despair. Looking at the way he is smoking and drinking, he is probably still thinking about how to break the predicament.

Sadly, your breakthrough has already arrived. While you're truly amazing, and I admire you greatly, if you weren't so incredibly lucky as a postman, you'd likely have succeeded.

However, I don't need a subordinate who will do anything to bring down his boss. You are too dangerous. Even if I want to recruit local talent, I will never choose you.

Besides, you might be a smart guy with a good personality, but in a fight, Postman Six would take you down in seconds. After all, this Postman is said to have killed a Deathclaw with his bare hands, while you're just an ordinary guy with a pistol.

"Commander, I've found Benny. What should I do next? Should I just go up and rip his hands off? I guarantee you won't find more than 10 centimeters of flesh and bones beneath his suit." M14 was eager to try.

Sun Yang shook his head. What are you thinking? Of course not.

Although Sun Yang usually didn't care much about causing a commotion, this was still Mr. House's territory after all. With only an M14, it was quite difficult to fight against Mr. House's hundred-plus robots and the local gangs loyal to Mr. House. Of course, he could bring people over, but what if he brought too many people and wanted to go back and get targeted again? He couldn't just never go back to upgrade.

And it would definitely not work to just go there casually. Benny had chosen an empty corner to drink by himself. If any guests with suspicious behavior approached, the bodyguards would notice it immediately.

Sun Yang didn't think he had ever specialized in camouflage or psychology. All he did for scanning was let the M14 take a quick glance to locate the target.

At this time, he could only use the most common moves he had. Sun Yang handed the chips to M14 and asked M14 to find a place to play with them while monitoring Benny's every move.

[Yay!] M14 ran straight to the roulette table and started taking out chips. She wanted to be the most beautiful girl tonight.

Sun Yang went to the bathroom, not to change clothes or pull out a gun, but just to do something that most Dark Souls players would do.

He took out his staff, cast Invisibility, and then added Silence and Stealth Weapon. This way, no one would notice him at all—unless Sun Yang deliberately knocked someone down in front of many people.

Sure enough, this combination was the safest. Sun Yang replaced a few of his rings, switching to the Standing Dragon Ring and the Clear Azure Stone Ring. The former extended the buff's duration, while the latter shortened the casting time. He kept the Green Flower Ring and the Greedy Silver Snake Ring. People often died in the Free City, and their souls were absorbed into his body.
