Chapter 33 033: Gambler

"EMP?"

Gino recalled while holding a glass of water.

She modified an electromagnetic pulse transmitter and accidentally destroyed the prohibited raw materials stolen by the Xiao Town traitors, which caused all kinds of trouble.

According to Gino's description:
The other accessories are nothing special, but the core deciphering component uses the Plato Company's intrusion counter-electron element.

ICE can be commonly understood as a firewall.

The most advanced anti-cracking technology in the cyber era, major technology companies are willing to spend a lot of money to set up their own scientific research teams, use ICE to compete with hackers, and protect the prosthetics they produce from being easily hacked.

"Where did this come from?" John asked.

"Some time ago, a cyberpsycho appeared in the city center. Do you still remember it?"

"I remember it was the night I sent the doctor back."

John could still recall the scene of the special operations team's aerospace vehicle passing over the roof of the car - at that time, the black light caused physical weakness, and he was half-dead, and he didn't even think about joining in the fun.

Gino, like most hacker girls, always maintains high-intensity surfing. Learn more:
It is said that the warehouse of Plato Company was blown up that night. The Exile and the Ghoul teamed up, made advanced prosthetics, rushed into the company and snatched a lot of things.

The black market exploded with all kinds of good stuff that night.

Gino had limited funds, so he bought a blind box at a low price and received the protective hardware from Plato's experimental stage.

This firmware is highly praised.

Plato's executives even threatened that this experimental ICE can stop the top hackers. The traps inside are like a maze. Younger hackers who dare to hack will be burned to death inside.

After receiving the goods, Gino had a sudden idea and tried to run the hardware subroutine in reverse, and found:
The modified EMP can penetrate the protection of other companies.

The thickest shield turned into the strongest spear!
"With just one fucking shot, the drone fell down. I didn't even think about it... Do you understand?"

Gino still feels surprised when he recalls it.

Seeing John's interest, she expressed regret. "These things are all with the Japanese who kidnapped me. They are in the secret room of an abandoned casino in Xiao Town. I was locked up in it."

[Task progress update]

[Return to the abandoned casino to find the lost hardware. (unacommpolished)】

John recounted last night's experience.

When Gino heard his kidnapper being interrogated by the Xiao Town Gang, he cursed happily.

John was worried that the Japanese would raid the site.

However, Gino said that the secret passage is very hidden and is a place specially used to hide stolen goods. If you are lucky enough, you may not be discovered.

So John drove the Silver Rider back to Sakura Cross Street.

At this time, the morning light was dim.

The sun shone on the charred bridge, and the car wreckage had been cleaned up. An unmanned cleaning machine slowly passed by, leaving behind wet road surfaces and traces of fishy odor.

The Silver Rider drove along the coastal road.

The factory building occupied by the ghouls has been engulfed in flames, and the billowing smoke mixes with the industrial waste gas high in the West District.

John watched from a distance through the car window:

The Owl Town Gang thugs stood guard in front of the building.

They had killed all the remaining ghouls last night, and their corpses were piled up on the roadside in miserable state of death, serving as a silent warning to passers-by on the street.

Whoever causes trouble on Sakura Cross Street will have to pay the price.

The red light ends.

The road voice announcement starts to remind.

John honked the horn to urge the car in front to turn and cross the intersection.

[Sakura Cross Street-Abandoned Casino]

John leaned over and passed through the dented rolling shutter door. The dusty abandoned casino was full of traces of smashing, and a narrow trail of blood could still be vaguely seen.

The NPC was probably dead, and maybe even the body was burned to ashes.

As John expected, the entire abandoned casino was searched by Xiaoding, but these gang members were very sloppy in their work and obviously did not search key places.

It is estimated that Long Chuanzao is not interested in the unfortunate guy's family background. He is simply torturing and punishing traitors.

Following Gino's tips, John found a pinball machine with a power outage and all the glass broken.

Open the operating cover to see a data slot. John took out the connecting cable and used a black light to take over the system. The tightly sealed wall bounced outward, and after peeling it open, he could see a secret room several square meters wide.

The space is narrow and the facilities are simple - metal tables and chairs, clutter and shelves scattered everywhere.

John found the arms box in the corner. Inside was a neatly stacked ICE firmware. There was obviously a piece missing, which should have been used by Gino.

Just from the Plato Company's LOGO, you can tell that the items inside are valuable goods. Unfortunately, this unlucky guy was killed by Long Chuanzao before he could sell the items.

John scanned his surroundings with his prosthetic eyes.

There was a discolored sealcoat on the wall that had become incompatible with its surroundings due to moisture and age.

He stepped forward and took off the cover.

A silk package was dug out from the secret compartment, and after opening it, a monomolecular samurai sword was pulled out.

[Weapon: Katana-Gambler]

[Accessories: sharp, durable coating]

The Japanese bushido culture has been given a new interpretation in the cyberpunk era, extremes and violence have been amplified, and certain elements have become design inspirations for weapons dealers.

This high-tech blade is an early product of Fuki Industries.

When they entered Eden City, in order to expand the market, they launched a series of weapons with Japanese elements. As long as they paid money, they could create unique colors according to customer needs and issue exclusive product serial numbers.

This series is still being updated to this day.

The one in John's hands is an early customized model, and the original owner's economic conditions were probably pretty good when he purchased it.

Although he was in despair, he still did not sell the knife, as if it was some kind of fantasy, a spiritual capital, carrying the hope of a Jedi comeback.

John thought of how miserable he was - so miserable that he colluded with ghouls to pay for his travels.

There is a sense of ironic desolation.

"Is this a gambler?"

John examined the katana.

It has a jet black alloy handle, a narrow mouth guard, and a long and narrow body with Ukiyoe dark patterns.

The metal blade part is a light navy blue, which was the most popular suit color for Japanese gangsters in the last century. It is also easily associated with gamblers addicted to pinball machines in arcades.

John packed up his loot and left.

As soon as he got into the driver's seat, he got the call.

[Vito Russell: Well done, John. Macao has picked up Gino in the East End. It’s all thanks to you that this girl can go home with all her beard and tail. Hey, I hope she can have a long memory. 】

"She didn't deserve to die. Ha, I'm serious. Luck was indeed on Gino's side. She almost died."

John felt thrilling when he recalled it.

Mr. Vito smiled.

[Who says it’s not the case... Someone was racing and shooting at Sakura Crossing last night. I heard some news... Well, this job is really hard. I can’t afford the reward I promised you, so I’ll double it. for you. 】

"It's really impressive."

【You deserve it. 】

Vito poured himself a drink with interest.

[You are making a big fuss in the territory of the Oriental people. The Xiaomachi Gang is asking for your name. Don’t worry, we can protect you. You are just a neutral mercenary. You can walk on the streets as you want. There is no one except ghouls. I will settle the score with you. 】

He raised his glass to John and said again.

[The Black Gold Gang never treats its friends badly. When you return to the apartment, you will see the gifts we have prepared. Money is money, and thoughts are hearts. Danny Street officially welcomes you. 】

Vito said and hung up the phone.

John slowly increased the speed of the car, and the settlement information popped up in front of his eyes.

[Task: Fishing people out of a frying pan (completed)]

[Rewards: Remuneration, Equipment Hacking Against Dengen, Transport Protocol 308 (Procedure), Katana-Gambler, Special Pass, Unknown Souvenir. 】

 Thanks Yuxiao for the reward
  The editor informed me that I have advanced to this round of testing. I can only say that it is all thanks to everyone’s votes to carry the book through this round. Gods fight, and I am walking on thin ice with this book.

  As for updating, it’s really boring. I usually have to work, but I haven’t made any money writing books yet, so I can’t do it full-time for the time being.

  But I will try my best to make up for it. If I can change another chapter later, I will post it in the early morning. Thank you all again, bang bang bang~~~
