My cyberpsychosis is a task prompt

Chapter 19 019: Life on the road

Chapter 19 019: Life on the road
The night is deep and the sky has not yet come on.

The neon-dazzled Eden City is in a sensitive and fragile period.

The roar of the engines disappeared and the sound of gunfire subsided.

The most exciting radio program has also ended. Familiar and unfamiliar people seem to be far away from me...

Everyone huddled in a corner of the steel city.

The world and time are your own.

Until the sky gradually turns gray, the morning light seems to take away a person's most peaceful time, and opens up the protective umbrella of night walkers.

Good morning, Eden City...

The car radio sounded, and the male hosts were full of enthusiasm. It was said that the radio station would require them to take medicine before officially taking up their duties.

Black Spider ends night standby.

Its indicator light turned on, its curled-up mechanical tentacles all unfolded, and then it headed to the top of the pile of metal debris to look for the sun and begin a day of treasure hunting.

John carried it in the car all night.

He drove back to the Black Engine for dinner and devoured the overcooked spaghetti bolognese.

Gnaeus came over with a beer and complained: "Your face is as ugly as your appearance."

"Whoo~"

John swallowed hard. "Sleeping with your feet up on the dashboard is the stupidest decision. A sports car is not suitable for such a position at all. I was still a little numb after resting for more than 20 minutes."

"Just saw off the legs and replace them with new ones. Alloys don't have similar problems, and they won't give you a chance to show off your car."

Gnaeus raised his middle finger expressionlessly and said seriously.

"Two acquaintances who are real estate agents came to the store last night. I left my phone number. If necessary, you can contact them. They said my name will give them a discount."

"Copy that, thank you."

"Find a good place to sleep. Free up the lounge. You're occupying the bed so I can't hire a waitress. The night shift is so busy!"

"I sleep during the day, so it doesn't matter if you recruit people."

“The women on Oil Drum Street will break your dick.”

Gnaeusli cursed.

John escaped into the shower.

He turned the news volume on the electronic screen to maximum, hoping to hear reports on cyberpsychosis last night.

Perhaps because he missed the morning rush hour, the host coldly broadcast the latest news on the city's development...

Violence broke out frequently in nearby neighborhoods. Many new residents moved into Youdong Street, and escapees from cities in the south were also looking for job opportunities.

John could feel it too.

The number of customers at Black Engine Restaurant has increased, and we really need to recruit helpers.

Gnaeus is a big man with a kind heart.

John got help from him when he was desperate. Except for washing two dishes at the beginning, he never asked for any payment. Instead, he often drank free drinks.

"We can't cause any more trouble to Gnaeus."

He made up his mind to rent a house after completing this commission.

After John finished washing, he got on his silver horse and sped towards the outside of the city.

He made an appointment with Elona last night to interview for a commission, but was interrupted by Dr. Ryan's request for help.

I was a little tired from going around Odaiba continuously.

But there is no way, the lone wolf in Eden City has to work harder. In the early stage of starting a business, it is good to have work. Only after you accumulate credibility will you be qualified to be selected.

John ran onto the suburban road.

The window suddenly opened up, and the street scenery changed from high-rise buildings to rocks and weeds. Drought-resistant plants like cacti were scattered everywhere like graves.

Silver Cavalry's windshield didn't have time to be repaired.

The hot wind carrying the gravel blew through my ears.

The radio station was tuned to the nostalgic channel, and the hoarse voice of the old cowboy came from it. The guitar and trumpet created a desolate atmosphere that could never be enjoyed in the high-rise buildings of Eden City——

The lonely healing of men, fast cars, and interstate highways.

【Eden City-Damascus Camp】

John sent a message to Elona in advance.

As soon as the Silver Cavalry approached the outskirts of the camp, they encountered a blockade. The sentry standing on the rock made a release signal from a distance, the blockade stakes were removed, and the camp members came over and knocked on the hood and pointed in a direction.

John parked his car in a public parking space.

The colors are monotonous as far as the eye can see. As long as the sky is still bright, it looks like dusk no matter what. John lit a cigarette and sat on the hood to observe everything. He could see a large number of signal receivers, power banks, and even...

Military grade armored vehicle.

The core members of the camp were all dressed like Western ranchers.

The oldest among them had lost everything in the land wars and still wore cowboy hats and gun holsters.

The plaid shirt is worn open to expose the muscles.

Rolling up both sleeves and exposing the mechanical prosthetic limbs with heat dissipation stripes is called hard-core macho fashion.

The camp is always on the move.

They move between cities, looking for development and job opportunities. Each car has a professional modification and a legendary owner.

The van with the front end removed falls onto the support.

Once the tent was nailed and pulled up, it turned into a cozy little home, with campfires and abandoned vehicle frames forming a gathering point.

Crates and debris were everywhere.

It may seem chaotic, but there are actually rules.

"Hey John, you're welcome."

A muscular man walked towards the sports car.

John turned his eyes away and subconsciously activated the scanner.

[Name: Nando Brahim]

[Faction: Damascus Camp (Leader)]

Nando held his cigar in his mouth and lightly hit his shoulder with his fist: "You've been waiting for a long time. I'm really sorry, my friend. There are more and more mouths wanting to eat in the camp, and I'm too busy to turn around."

[Scan: Heavy subcutaneous armor, blood pump]

[Reward: Public Hazard]

[Archives: Norton man, widowed, 172 records of violence, founded the family in the gang war of 75, split the following year, led the Damascus camp, unlike other homeless groups, he rejected the smuggling and drug business, hoping to find other ways to survive Way……】

"A lot of things have been added."

Nando could see that John was scanning and his pupils were still flashing, but he didn't mind and instead observed with interest.

"New gun, new arms, new eyeballs... Oh, wait, is this the Ethan Berg Silver Cavalry? How did it become such a mess?"

"I'm a pragmatist."

John shrugged and asked again: "Alona didn't talk to me in detail, what kind of job did she want me to do?"

"Hmm, I'm anxious, that's not bad."

Nando took a long puff on his cigar. "Tomorrow morning, we will receive a batch of supplies outside the city. It is very important for the camp."

"Doing business outside the city? It sounds very dangerous."

"Yes, and there are gang members threatening to cause trouble. We will bring enough guns and bullets."

"Is there any grudge?"

"Just a little bit, we'll talk about it later... If we really want to fight in the wilderness, there will be a racing chase, and the frequency of injuries in the camp has been quite high recently, and the only remaining drivers have gone to get their guns."

Nando handed over the cigar box. "The driver position was vacant, so Elona mentioned your name to me."

John declined the cigar.

Nando pays generously and works openly. He prepares you for possible dangers before starting work. He is already a very conscientious employer.

"I don't have any objection. I'm driving, and that's what I eat."

John agreed readily, but he was not stupid. "As long as the remuneration is discussed in advance, I am willing to make this trip."

"It's okay to take money, but I have better suggestions."

Nando drove John out of the car, lifted the hood of the Silver Cavalry, and stood in front with his arms folded to take a closer look.

"Hoo ho ho, what a hot baby."

He gritted his teeth, shook his head in surprise, raised his head and said to John.

"The campground is the best car modification shop. Ever heard that saying? We can give your car a complete upgrade if you want."

[Mission: Wildfire]
