Chapter 293

This is also the reason why she was able to move out of that hellhole in Watson District so quickly.

As for the house, Jack helped to find it. As an old hand in Heywood, he is very familiar with this place.

"Speaking of which, I remember that David, his former boss also opened a weapons store near Heywood, right?"

"Manyin and his friends... almost, but it's a bit far from me, almost in the Lijing District near Westbrook."

Lin Qiao pretended to recall.

When they were captured and returned to Arasaka, Sasha, or Lin Qiao, gave them two choices for the sake of their acquaintance.

One is to join Arasaka and live a working life with five social insurances and one housing fund from now on.

The other is to let them leave and give them some freedom.

From the results, the group who really didn't like the company naturally chose to leave... Of course, it was not without cost.

Erasing memories is one aspect, and a series of unequal treaties were also signed.

This also includes opening a weapons store specializing in selling Arasaka brands.

At a time when the conflict between the Six Street Gang and the Valentino Gang is becoming more and more intense, opening a weapons store with Arasaka's official authorization is still quite profitable.

——At least on the surface.

To be honest, it is actually an intelligence station of Arasaka, and also a bait for fishing.

At least if another time traveler wants to find out how the two vampires under his command lost contact and what happened that night, then there is a high probability that he will find Mainin and his friends who are the parties involved...

But Mainin and his friends certainly don't know about the above.

They thought they were just running an ordinary weapons store, and at most they were just hard-working workers who had to hand over the profits to Arasaka every month.

They didn't know that they were being monitored, and Lin Qiao wouldn't let them know.

And not everyone works in a weapons store.

David, whose hacker components were retained by Sian Westin, Qiwei, whose hacker components were not removed, and Falco, the driver, and Rebecca, who didn't need prosthetics much, are still doing mercenary business.

They had worked with V and Jack not long ago, and the two groups of people got to know each other.

[…It is reported that all the residents of a remote town in Ohio were frozen to death overnight. There are rumors that Military Technology is using local people to experiment with new weapons, which has caused strong dissatisfaction]

[New America and Military Technology have launched a joint investigation and confirmed that it is a rumor. ]

[The reason for this phenomenon is that some parts of Ohio have experienced extremely abnormal weather. Please pay attention to cold prevention measures. ]

[The following is a famous climatologist...]

"Tsk, Military Technology... The company only knows how to make up this set of rhetoric."

Just when Lin Qiao was still thinking about how to deal with Lai Xuan's problem, the news on TV made V snort coldly, and then simply turned off the TV.

News Channel 54, Military Technology and New America's dog, it's okay to let it meow if necessary.

Chapter 365 Doomed to Failure Rebellion

As Lin Qiao expected, Arasaka Lai Xuan did play some tricks.

Almost at dawn, he took a special plane to Night City.

——Calculating the time, he got on the plane as soon as Lin Qiao got the news that he was coming.

And this guy was not here for vacation as he said.

As the hawkish leader in Arasaka Corporation, Saburo Arasaka, who was controlled by Lin Qiao in recent years, deliberately indulged him, and even secretly supported him.

Various factors made this rich second generation, who is the most rebellious in the eyes of the world, more than just what he looks like.

Even though his every move was closely monitored, he still cultivated an armed force loyal to himself inside Arasaka - and accompanied him to Night City.

That is, in the early morning of Arasaka Tower, when most employees had not yet gone to work.

This private guard directly under Arasaka Yoriaki raided here.

Because they did not expect to be killed by their own people, the security inside was caught off guard.

In addition, the other party was the next generation successor of the Arasaka family, which made the Counterintelligence Department and the Security Department, who reacted later, a little nervous.

It was basically the same as facing the rebellion of the ancient prince.

They must be arrested.

But they had no choice in life and death.

It would be better to say that if they really got into a fight and hurt the other party, the consequences for them would not be too good... In the end, they were caught off guard and had no ability to resist.

In less than half an hour, Arasaka Yorinobu's private guards had already controlled the entire Arasaka Tower...

Except for the bottom layer with the highest confidentiality level.

After sending a message to all employees who did not come to work to take a week's paid leave, Arasaka Yorinobu stood in the office of the Counterintelligence Department with a serious face.

The words "data loss" were displayed on several screens in front of him.

In addition, in the structural diagram showing the main structure of Arasaka Tower, the lowest layer also turned red.

That was the location of the special operations team directly under Arasaka Saburo.

After realizing that Arasaka Tower was under attack, the people inside immediately cut off all contact with the outside world... in the physical sense.

The elevator and the passage leading to the floor were blown up directly, and the counterintelligence members who were originally on duty here deleted all the relevant data at the first time.

Moreover, the high-power circuits and network cables on the bottom floor are all independent, so it is unrealistic to besiege them to death in a short time.

Several hackers wearing network clothes were lying on hacker chairs, and a thick wire tube was connected to the back of their heads and connected to the computer in front of them.

"How is the data recovery going?"

As time passed, Lai Xuan couldn't help asking.

"I'm sorry, Lord Lai Xuan, due to time constraints, we only had time to recover a small part of the data."

"A part... Let's check it out first."

"Yes."

Soon, several emails and a series of other reports were turned out and displayed on the big screen.

Staring at the data reports that were constantly called out, Arasaka Lai Xuan frowned.

Putting aside the content of various orders, these emails and reports always frequently mentioned two existences-BloodRiot and Chimera Box.

The former should be someone's code name.

The latter is probably some kind of item... some mysterious item that is being analyzed by Arasaka and sealed in the lowest level of Arasaka Tower.

Then the information he obtained was limited to this.

But there is no doubt that these two existences are absolute secrets of Arasaka.

It is so confidential that the only person in the entire Arasaka who has the right to intervene and inquire about this project is his good father Arasaka Saburo.

‘It seems that I have found the right place. ’

The combination of various factors made Arasaka Yorinobu confirm his guess again.

There is indeed something unknown but crucial hidden here.

Then what he has to do is to destroy the things inside.

In this way, even if his future revolution fails, after losing Arasaka Saburo as a leader in the future, with the structural level of Arasaka, it is only a matter of time before civil strife or even disintegration breaks out.

Ta... Ta...

At this moment, heavy footsteps sounded from outside.

A terrifying figure, whose whole body is made of metal except for half of his face, like a real dark cloud, appeared at the door.

No.

Rather than saying it is a person, it is more appropriate to say that it is a completely transformed war machine.

Adam Heavy Hammer, the strongest mercenary under Arasaka, is also the personal bodyguard of Arasaka Yoriaki.

But to some extent, he was actually tricked by Yoriaki.

After all, he knew very well what kind of consequences Yoriaki was going to do.

Although he was known as the most brutal killing machine in the world, he had to face the pursuit of the giant Arasaka... To be honest, he didn't want to die yet.

But by the time he reacted, he had already boarded the pirate ship and couldn't get off, so he could only accompany Yoriaki to the end.

At this moment, he was dragging a struggling woman in his hand-Susan Abernathy, the director of the special operations team.

Judging from her almost half-naked state, she was dragged out by Adam Heavy Hammer in her sleep.

"I brought you the person you wanted."

Throwing Abernathy on the ground, Adam Heavy Hammer said unhappily in an electronic voice, and then turned and left.

Not caring about his attitude, Arasaka Yoriaki looked at Abernathy who was struggling to get up from the ground.

He said in an unyielding tone: "Tell me, what are BloodRiot and Chimera? And how can we get to the bottom of this place."

He really didn't believe that they could destroy the passage connecting the upper level so decisively without some preparation.

However, Abernathy obviously had his own opinion on this point.

He took a deep breath and persuaded him earnestly: "Listen to me, Lord Rai Xuan, before that guy comes, you still have time to stop now..."

Admittedly, Rai Xuan's guards are not weak, and there is Adam Heavy Hammer, the highest single combat power of Arasaka... But he said that it was only on the surface.

If we really wait for the ancestor who is usually worshipped to come back, I'm afraid there will be no room for resistance.

Even if Arasaka Rai Xuan didn't come at a good time, and happened to catch up with Sasha, who was originally responsible for staying behind to watch the house, he would probably have been captured by now.

At least in Abernathy's view, this rebellion from the heir of the Arasaka family was over before it even began.

The only thing in front of her was what happened after the end.

According to the usual behavior of a certain moody scum star, Arasaka Yoriyuki's outcome would be very bad.

In that case, Lin Qiao might not have any problem, after all, Arasaka Saburo was confident of his favoritism, but it was hard to say for them, the workers.

So Abernathy had to think about himself, so as not to be blamed.

"Tell me, what are BloodRiot and Chimera's Box? I don't want to say it for the third time, Abernathy."

Ignoring Abernathy's warning, if he was the kind of good boy who would listen to others, then Arasaka Yoriyuki would not have thought of overthrowing Arasaka from the beginning.

But Abernathy remained silent.

A trace of disappointment and helplessness flashed in Yoriyuki's eyes.

Although waiting for hackers to recover data is also a way, and jammers are also deployed, it takes too long.

Delay will lead to changes.

He signaled to his subordinates beside him. In order to get the answer as soon as possible and destroy Saburo Arasaka's ambition of immortality, he could only use violent means.

If it wasn't too late, he would have wanted to learn from Johnny Silverhand and blow up the Arasaka Tower with a nuclear bomb.

But just when the two were about to drag Abernathy away, a strange voice suddenly sounded in the room.

"I don't mind if someone praises me for being handsome, but if someone is a paparazzi, it would be a headache."

"Who is it!?"

With gold and red as the main colors, a heavy armored figure covered with spider-like shapes appeared in the room.

The strange appearance and the extremely abrupt appearance instantly made the people present nervous.

In the blink of an eye, several guns were pointed at the newcomer.

"Blood Riot?"

"Correct answer!"

Lin Qiao clapped her hands as if the guns pointed at her didn't exist.

Chapter 366 Waiting and Hope

Due to the lack of the scheduled contact signal, and the fact that his own clone disguised the Chimera Box, he also received the news that Arasaka Tower was attacked.
