Chapter 274 Holy Prayer!
A few days after leaving for Sakura, Arasaka Yorinobu rushed back to the base with a mysterious refrigerated safe.
Xiao knew in his heart that the mysterious item he brought was the legendary relic chip that carried the soul consciousness of Johnny Silverhand.
Arasaka Yorinobu's wishful thinking is to sell this thing to Kangtao, adding another fire to Kangtao, which has already emerged in the Asian trade war.
In this way, he defeated his father's Arasaka Company in one fell swoop and ended Arasaka's dictatorial rule over Sakura.
It has to be said that his plan seems to be seamless, but unfortunately, God's calculations are not as good as those of man, and all the changes are caused by one woman - Evelyn Parker.
When Arasaka Yorinobu approached Evelyn again, trying to draw some twisted maternal love from her, the gears of fate began to turn quietly.
At this moment, the behavioral chip suddenly took control of Evelin's body, and Xiao also turned off monitoring her.
Next is Yori Xuan's private fetish time, and Xiao Ke has no interest in watching it.
In the days that followed, Xiao hung out in the Wild Wolf Bar almost every day, still hanging out as usual, drinking and bragging and selling some gadgets.
He became a resident technical expert at the Wild Wolf Bar, but he didn’t have much fame, he just lived for a living and only sold things to acquaintances.
It was also during this period that Xiao was lucky enough to meet the famous protagonist V, who was not surprisingly a female V.
V used to be a company dog, the deputy to the head of the counter-intelligence section of Arasaka Company, but he was completely defeated in the internal fighting within the company.
The prosthetic body, money, car, and house were all taken away. If Jack hadn't taken him in, he would have been living on the street.
At that time, V had lost everything,
If it weren't for the cash given by the boss to complete the task and the help of his good brother Jack,
She might be forced to stand on the street in a place like Twisted Street to watch the clock.
But thanks to Jack's help, she had the capital to start over in Night City.
It's just that she and Jack started to form a team together and took on some mercenary jobs outside.
But most of the time it's just a small fight, without any big achievements, and they often even come back with injuries.
Either fight with others, or get beaten up by others. Fortunately, for mercenaries, this is commonplace.
Fortunately, although he was always injured, his life was safe,
After all, Jack had always been on the street, and as the young owner of the Wild Wolf Bar and his relationship with the Valentino Gang, no one was ruthless against them.
Xiao and V were both regulars at the Wild Wolf Bar and soon became old acquaintances.
However, only a few acquaintances knew Xiao's true identity, so Jack and the others naturally didn't talk much, so V didn't recognize Xiao.
She only knew that Xiao Ming had the nickname of a mechanic, that he had a lot of good things in his hands, and that he only took jobs from people he knew.
But as long as you are an acquaintance, you can make any request, and once the money is available, he can get you those best-selling weapons and prosthetics.
It's a pity that she can't afford any of the good things that make V covetous.
…
…
Time flies, and about half a year flies by. At this moment, V finally looks like a mercenary instead of a corporate dog.
It was at this time that Jack and V suddenly disappeared, as if they had disappeared from the world.
Just when everyone was confused about this, Jack reappeared in people's sight in a very strange way - the dilapidated Delamain taxi brought his body back to the Wild Wolf Bar.
Mrs. Wells, the owner of the Wolf Bar, looked at her son's cold body in front of her, feeling so distraught that she almost fainted.
Thanks to Pepi's quick reaction and timely support of Mrs. Wells, another tragedy was avoided.
"What happened?"
Mrs. Wells suppressed the grief in her heart and asked Delamain what happened with a trembling voice. She was eager to know what misfortune had happened to her son.
Delamain's emotionless synthesized voice sounded at this time:
"I'm so sorry, Mrs. Wells. They were attacked by the Trauma Team's float vehicle at Gunby Towers. Jack suffered a ruptured spleen and was chased by Adam Hammer, who eventually bled to death."
Upon hearing the news, Mrs. Wells was struck by lightning, while Pepi was staring blankly at the TV screen.
The TV news was reporting on the assassination of Saburo Arasaka. Seeing this scene, Pepi was stunned and said to himself in disbelief:
"Kanbi Building, assassinated Saburo Arasaka, and faced Adam Hammer... Oh my God!"
"The excellence package has been completed perfectly. Thank you for using it. Choose Delamain and leave all your worries at home!"
After putting down Jack's body, Delamain Taxi left a classic advertising slogan and drove away without hesitation.
"Uuuuuu~~~, my Jack, why are you so stupid..."
Mrs. Wells had obviously guessed what had happened to Jack, and immediately fell into endless grief, crying helplessly.
Her son has been engaged in dangerous jobs in order to become a great man.
She prayed devoutly to the gods every day to keep Jack safe, but in the end Jack realized his dream, but he still fell on the road to becoming a legend.
"Xiao, what can you do?"
Pepi looked at the grief-stricken Mrs. Wells, quietly walked to the bar, and asked in a low voice. He really couldn't stand such a scene.
"Jack installed the dimensional chip."
Xiao reminded calmly while drinking whiskey on the rocks.
"Fuck, how could I forget about this!"
Pepi slapped his thigh and suddenly remembered something.
He quickly took out the Mechanicus incense burner from his pocket, and then took out a precious Mechanicus incense from Wells' room.
Pepi pushed aside the crowd and knelt in front of Jack. He held the pendant of the incense burner in his hand, then held Jack's cold hand, and began to pray devoutly:
"Immortal God of Machinery, listen to our prayers
We are your children, many scholars on the road to machinery,
We hope to be granted knowledge far above us, because this is your eternal, gift above mankind.
We are inspired by the blessing that comes in the form of machinery, and we continue to improve through technology to make us worthy of your glory
We are protected by steel and protected by your war god. We work tirelessly to return your lost gift to our side..."
Accompanied by Pepi's prayers, the gauze-like incense gradually enveloped Jack's body.
