Chapter 9 - Chapter 9: Shooting Rebecca

The walls of Dogtown are not easy to penetrate.

Whether it's the underground manholes filled with water or the holes dug secretly, they have all been treaded by "criminals" attempting to avoid the NCPD and the corporation.

The paths that can be walked are either full of mines, or the military-grade mines are of such high quality that they can still explode loudly after being thrown into the river for over a decade.

No one has failed to complain about the towering walls of Dogtown. No one knows what kind of nefarious activities Military Technology has conducted underground. In short, the walls are first-class and solid.

However, Dolio's operation proved effective. The four of them paid 1,000 euros to follow the truck that cleared construction waste into Dogtown.

As for Sasha, she guided them from her little nest on Japan Street and played offense and defense with the hackers on the opposite side.

"That's it. Once this job is done, make a quick exit through the opening over there. You'll only have 30 minutes to act after the gunfire."

The middleman who sold the tickets opened the compartment of the construction waste truck, set a timer, and left.

Rebecca was a bit resentful, "Thirty minutes? What if that sly guy runs away? Tsk."

At this time, Sasha's cute cyber cat avatar appeared on their phones. Sasha was debugging the equipment and seemed to have taken a deep breath.

Manny frowned slightly. What he worried about most with this team at this point was this child who was never good at expressing his feelings.

"Are you having any difficulties, Sasha?"

Sasha shook her head, "It's just that the hackers on the other side are more experienced. As soon as I obtain the Hellhound's information, you can solve the problem and retreat."

"Be careful."

They all exchanged cautions, waiting for the shaking vehicle to take them into the lair of the warlord leader Hansen.

Rebecca sighed and blinked her pink and yellow artificial eyes.

For some reason, she had a feeling that something was going to happen today. Known for her heartless attitude, she liked to fire all the bullets when shooting and brag to her teammates before missions.

At this time, Dolio patted her shoulder.

"Don't worry, we're only here to solve the problem for our team."

"Smile."

This strong woman with short blond hair always had a kind of hidden charm.

She was very strong and could blow up a sandbag with one punch. At the same time, such a punch would also reduce some strength and hit Manny's face, who always wanted to take advantage of her.

Manny liked her, and she always silently tried her best to cover for the adventurous Manny during missions.

In short, she was a handsome woman who made a suitable companion.

Manny twisted the steel bar exposed in the cement block beside him to one side, and his hand was placed on Dolio's shoulder intentionally or unintentionally. Rebecca clearly felt that Dolio's big hand on her shoulder was a little heavier.

"I think we can go and play after this job, what do you think..."

While speaking, Manny's hand was mischievous again. He liked to touch Dolio while talking.

Bang!

The sunglasses were crooked, and the nosebleed slowly flowed from Manny's nose.

Rebecca's eyes were full of two words: watch the show.

The atmosphere in the car finally relaxed. Rebecca took out a shotgun shell from her waist, threw it high, and then smoothly loaded it into the big gun she brought.

Because they were going to Dogtown, they couldn't bring pistols. Manny selected a powerful shotgun for her.

She could play with bullets in a variety of ways. Her small hands could hold many bullets at the same time.

She liked the heavy feel of the gun. With her green hair tied into two ponytails, she was often mistaken for a little girl who ran away from someone's house.

Pyrrha was the most displeased among them because his new "research" was only halfway through, but this kind of clean-up in the team required joint action, not to mention it was related to his sister.

As the vehicle stopped, everyone waited quietly for the door to open.

A ghost dog opened the door and saw the sturdy Manny, a woman with a tough expression and an equally strong physique, a loli, and a madman with long arms.

He swallowed and turned away.

"Let's go, everyone!"

The setting sun dyed the sky of Dogtown blood-red, and the light slowly slid towards the west.

-----------------

[Caller: Hamster]

"Hello, if the sound is okay, just squeak."

Logan Lane nodded, "No problem."

"Okay, shut up, find a suitable spot. I get angry when I hear your voice!"

Logan held the gun and found a relatively good spot on the abandoned building where the hamster lived. He ignored the hamster's curses in his ears.

He even wanted to get close to the hamster's ear and say, your chip is really useful.

The motel was shrouded in a faint green light in the scope of the Nekomata sniper rifle. This scope can highlight the gun line to scan people nearby, and other movable living beings can be accurately identified.

Logan tested the various indicators of the firearm according to the process. Just half a day of simulation allowed him, a former Nether Dog soldier, to take up his post with a sniper rifle.

"Big darling, it's up to you."

The contact sensing part of Logan's hand uploaded all kinds of gun data to the artificial eye. This gun has once again surprised Logan, and it can be equipped with plug-ins.

This big gun may be his most powerful weapon in the future.

Night falls.

The residents on the back hill of Dogtown will burn some garbage as a fire, sit on the holey sofa, and drink some cold beer, in groups of three or five.

There are also kidney-cutters riding motorcycles on the streets, either for new jobs or to pick people to kill.

When they are not short of money, they usually look down on those who don't have prosthetics and are happy to be corporate dogs and take on the business of cyber madmen.

In the distance, Mr. Hands was worried. At the top of the pyramid, a green laser shot straight into the sky and completely ignited the night sky, and a half-moon also appeared.

In 2075, the moon port will be built, right?

Logan also wants to spend 250,000 euros to take this train to space and see what the moon looks like.

Just when Logan was thinking about something else, the hamster reminded him in his ear, "Here they are, the other side has started to eavesdrop on the data."

"I don't know what the old man Hands told you, but in my case, the data will be automatically uploaded on time in the 20th minute, and you have to cooperate with the defense."

Logan lay on the rooftop and gently touched the trigger.

"My location information has been eavesdropped, be smart!"

The hamster's voice gradually became heavy, and Logan also felt the invisible pressure. With Zeta Technology's turrets and himself, 20 minutes is actually quite easy.

It's just that those cyberpunks are too fierce, especially Rebecca's shooting skills. Logan has a deep understanding of it. If the windshield of the weapon vehicle of the Nether Dog was not strong enough, those black gold bullets that can shoot people into sieves would have greeted this handsome face long ago.

As a beam of light from the headlights appeared from the sloping road, a car with full power suddenly swung its tail in front of the door of the hamster's hiding place.

"Crack!"

The Zeta Technology turret opened fire without warning, directly penetrated the door and the wall, and spit out flames at the car crazily. At that moment, the wall was like paper.

Manny and his team jumped out of the car and immediately launched a counterattack!

For a while, the area around the motel was chaos, and the residents of Dogtown were running everywhere. The channel of the Nether Dog also began to report the firefight on the back mountain!

Huh.

Logan took a deep breath, and the sniper lens was firmly locked on Manny's head.

Then he moved his crosshairs to Dolio and Pyrrha beside him—

and finally to Rebecca, who was coming out from behind the pickup truck, holding a heavy machine gun that seemed to have been removed from the Dogtown mecha in her hands, the flames reflecting off her crazy expression.

The [Panels] of these character information also popped up one after another. Are these legends of Night City who dare to challenge Arasaka in the future going to die under the sniper rifles in the dark?

Logan took a deep breath, stared at them with his crosshairs, and his forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat.

"Fuck you! Logan, shoot me! The turret is going to be destroyed by that stupid woman with the heavy machine gun!"

Hamster must have been caught up in a high-frequency network attack and defense war, and he almost gritted his teeth when he said this.

"Shit!"

Logan cursed.

The veins on his forehead bulged, and the muzzle of the gun twisted, aiming at Rebecca without hesitation.

Buzz~bang!

As the weapon finished charging, a blue light suddenly spit out from the muzzle, and this bullet with extremely destructive power shot towards Rebecca who was still holding the gun and shooting wildly.
