Cyberpunk: Legendary Life

Tang Yu and Jack found the destination of tonight's transaction.

Abandoned steel manufacturing plant in an old industrial area.

The abandoned steel factory is located in the North Industrial Zone, referred to as NID.

This area used to have everything, but with the end of the Alliance War, Arasaka Company returned to Night City. In order to control Night City's best overseas park channels, it started a big campaign against Watson in the fields of business, manufacturing, finance and other fields. massacre.

Until the factories closed down one after another, Arasaka Company finally obtained Watson's coastal industrial park and officially named it Arasaka Seaside Park.

Coupled with the damage caused by earthquakes and financial crises in the past, most factories are no longer able to operate and can only be abandoned.

Now the NID in the north of the city has become synonymous with garbage, disorder, and chaos in Night City. It is the living area of ​​the factory's lowest-level employees, and it is also the territory shrouded by the power of the Whirlpool Gang.

NCPD's threat level assessment north of Watson is: Extremely Dangerous.

It's getting late.

Tang Yu and Jack took advantage of the fact that it was not completely dark yet and confirmed the general layout of the abandoned steel plant based on the information map prepared in advance.

After careful comparison, it was determined that the only place suitable for trading was the steel forging workshop.

Rows of old workshops have spacious internal structures, and various mechanical workbenches and containers serve as obstacles, making them ideal for hiding.

Tang Yu and Jack arrived at the west side of the abandoned steel factory, where a barbed wire fence was built as a barrier.

The west side belongs to the open-air working area of ​​the steel plant, which used to be paved with flat cement steel plates.

Due to long-term inactivity, the wild grass and green plants have eroded the ground, and the weeds are knee-deep and lush.

The barbed wire fence was rusty and dilapidated. Jack tore open a gap in the barbed wire fence.

"This place is so spooky. Even if you say it is haunted in the middle of the night, some people will believe it. I really don't know how the Uzumaki Gang can live here!"

Jack complained while cutting the barbed wire, and the two of them were able to pass through the barbed wire smoothly.

Tang Yu turned on the 'Dragon Fist' smart glasses given by Lao Wei to scan and explore the situation ahead to prevent his whereabouts from being photographed and tracked by electronic devices.

After inspection, except for weeds on the ground, rusty and broken lamp posts, and scattered containers, no electronic equipment in working condition was found in the entire open area.

Walking through the scattered containers on the open grass, we arrived at the large warehouse, but there was still no sign of anyone.

The two continued to move towards the core area of ​​the factory.

Tang Yu used Dragon Fist smart glasses to explore while explaining the current situation to Jack.

"The situation tonight is quite special. In order to prevent the news from leaking, I haven't told you the specific details before."

Jack waved his hands and replied reassuringly: "Hermano, you know I believe you, I'll do whatever you tell me later and it'll be over!"

But in order to let Jack know what he would face later, Tang Yu made it clear that the Arasaka Company's Special Operations Department would come to snatch the prosthetic body, and that military technology would conduct a back-up attack.

After hearing this, Jack shook his head repeatedly: "This is too complicated. To be honest, if the military technology company doesn't come, the prosthetic body may fall into the hands of those corporate dogs."

Tang Yu said with great certainty: "Military Technology will never miss this opportunity, because I know them very well, no, I should know their special operations director 'Aunt Mei' very well."

When Jack heard about Aunt May, he didn't recognize her at all. He was born in Heywood and naturally disliked company employees. He had almost zero contact with and understanding of the company's senior management.

"Is he your distant relative?"

"That's not true. If I had such a backer, I would even work for Arasaka."

The 'Aunt Mei' Tang Yu refers to is a joking name, referring to Meredith Stout, director of military technology special operations.

Back then, in order to investigate the attack on the military technology transport convoy, she entrusted Tang Yu to take down the Whirlpool Gang.

At that time, Tang Yu, V Zi, and Jack were all poor cyberpunks who severely criticized Meredith for being ripped off.

The three of them swept through the Uzumaki Gang and gained her considerable appreciation.

Later, Tang Yu and Meredith interacted several times, and they were quite familiar with each other.

Finally, I got a pistol with good performance from Meredith, but I didn't use it much and forgot about it.

Tang Yu felt that Aunt Mei's way of playing was a bit wild and she really couldn't keep up with the rhythm, so in the end she had to be blacklisted.

What he didn't expect was that Meredith would be promoted later, becoming the Director of Military Science, Technology, Politics and Diplomacy. She would frequently appear in major news in Night City, and she would be in the limelight for a while.

The key is.

Meredith has a very strong execution ability and always likes to take matters into her own hands, and her attitude towards Arasaka is extremely tough.

Therefore, Tang Yu judged that as long as Mann found a channel to pass the information to Military Technology as he said, Meredith would never let go of this opportunity if she heard about it.

After all, she and Susan Abernathy were and still are true enemies.

The two walked through the warehouse area and entered the core production workshop area. There were rows of production workshops here, but only one of them was where the Uzumaki Gang members gathered.

The Whirlpool Gang has a wide coverage in Watson, and its members basically work in small teams, with as many as thirty people and as few as five or six people.

Tang Yu estimates that there will be no more than ten members of the Whirlpool Gang participating in this transaction. They will only gather when conducting large-scale operations.

A military-grade Sian Westan is not that important to them.

Tang Yu and Jack found a hidden corner and turned on the Dragon Fist thermal scanning function to continuously explore the rows of workshops.

Through the thermal energy information transmitted through the lenses, Tang Yu's vision became dark, and he soon discovered that there were humanoid color thermal images moving in the workshop in the middle, and the number of people counted was six.

Tang Yu turned off the scanning function and said to Jack: "They are active in the workshop in the middle, six people from the Whirlpool Gang."

Jack carefully inspected the old guy at work, a kinetic pistol made with military technology.

Lexington pistol, nicknamed "Justice and Glory".

This nickname does not describe how powerful this pistol is, but every street kid or cyberpunk who debuts in Night City will start with it.

Because the ordinary NCPD police officers in Night City have a lot of power and dominate the street gangsters.

More or less those who go out to hang out have been shot by it, or have seen it display its power.

Due to the lax security of gun sources, many Lexingtons flowed into the market to participate in gang wars.

The number of people killed by this gun in Night City remains high.

In addition, the small size of the gun makes it easy to hide in your pocket for self-defense.

It was also the beginning of Tang Yu's career in cyberpunk.

Now that I saw the Lexin in Jack's hand, I felt really nostalgic, so I took out my JKE-X2 Kenshin pistol, handed it to Jack and said.

"Why don't you try this?"

Jack raised his eyes and glanced at the Qianxin in his hand, and said somewhat nonchalantly.

"The gun is a good gun, but a guy needs to use it well."

Tang Yu didn't talk nonsense to him, just forced Qianxin into his hand, replaced it with Lexington, and quickly inspected the gun body skillfully.

After a few more shooting and aiming movements, I found that the feel and gun feel from back then were still there.

Although there is no ballistic co-processor to help with aiming, the feeling of shooting a gun is unmistakable.

"Except for some wear and tear, the paint has been well maintained. Why did you keep this old gun for so long?"

Jack's face looked a little strange when he heard this.

"You really sound more and more like my mother when you talk to her. You sound like someone who has been there before."

But his eyes looked at the Lexington with great treasure.

"I'm a nostalgic person, so my mother often asks me why I have so many old gadgets in my warehouse. Let me tell you secretly, I even still have the belt my dad used to whip me."

Speaking of this, Tang Yu was silent again.

When attending Jack's funeral, Misty took him to see the belt in Jack's warehouse, and also learned about Jack's drunken and violent father's past.

Tang Yu put the affordable pistol back into Jack's hand, looked at him and said seriously.

"You must cherish the present moment more. This time, I must handle the important matter with Misty for you!"

Jack: "."
