Cyberpunk: Legends of Life

Chapter 46
When a person goes to the end of the road, he will feel that the whole world is against him.

This cognition hovered in Carter Smith's mind for a long time and could not be dispelled. Even after working in Arasaka Company for many years, he still could not change the result of being excluded to the brink of danger.

The hustle and bustle of the gangsters behind the car, the black hand behind the company, and the waist that has never been straight in life.

He firmly grasped the steering wheel with both hands, trying to suppress the strong restlessness in his heart, telling himself over and over again, as long as he endured for a while, he would be fine.

Before he knew it, Carter Smith's eyes began to tremble strangely, and his pupils were as straight as dead fish eyes.

The whole person seems to rush into a river that is about to dry up suddenly, turning into a salmon eager to find his hometown ocean, but blindly at a loss and not knowing where to swim.

Anxiety, panic, and helplessness almost overwhelmed him.

Suddenly, it seemed that my mother Mary's soft call sounded in my ear.

The caring end of the phone asked softly: "Son, what happened? Aren't you working in the company now?"

Carter woke up from the trance nightmare, looked up slightly to see himself in the rearview mirror, only to find that his forehead was already dripping with sweat.

As if something had been decided, Carter's eyes gradually changed from surprise to determination.

He didn't have time to explain the current situation, so he just asked his mother Mary to close the door at home and wait for him to come back. Don't open the door to anyone.

After hanging up the phone.

Carter slammed on the brakes without hesitation, and the tires rubbed white smoke into two long black marks on the ground.

The vehicle behind was not in a hurry to dodge, and directly hit the rear of Carter's car, causing a serious rollover.

After the gangsters' vehicles turned over, the roof of the vehicle dragged out long sparks and hit the side of the road to stop.

The surrounding vehicles hurriedly evaded, and the traffic behind also slammed on the brakes, and the already congested lane was even more impenetrable at this time.

Carter turned the steering wheel and quickly parked the car in the middle of the road. He was determined to bid farewell to his past self today.

Carter Smith opened the door and got out of the car, and walked straight to the overturned vehicle with cold eyes. The advanced prosthetic body of his whole body was fully opened, and red lines of light flashed all over his body.

The surrounding vehicles were honking their horns and urging them to move away, but when they saw the people from Arasaka Company, they immediately fell silent, with only a few lights illuminating the front.

Although Carter Smith is not as good as a company executive like Tang Yu, he is at least the middle-level backbone of Arasaka Company.

The full-body prosthetic body accessories are made by Arasaka, and there are genuine high-level combat implants installed at his own expense, as well as high-performance operating system chips.

It's just that he has never shown it in front of outsiders. This is his hidden trump card, and he will never reveal it easily until the last moment.

Available today.

He really let go!never mind!

Carter, who couldn't bear it any longer, decided to start with this group of provocative gangsters first, and planned to kill them directly.

He slowly pulled out the thermal energy katana developed by Arasaka Company, and the nano-heating wire started to emit a scorching scarlet.

Carter walked slowly to the overturned car.

Cut off with a knife!

The entire car door was fused directly at the seam, and it fell to the ground with a bang.

The little gangster inside saw Carter like a demon descending, took out his pistol and shot at him frantically.

boom! boom! boom!
The bullet hit the metal armor under Carter's skin, splashing sparks but causing no harm.

And Carter did not hesitate to stab the heat knife into the gangster's head, and the high temperature immediately roasted the gangster's brain until it smoked and melted.

After getting rid of the gangster in the driver's seat, three people got out of the car kneeling and crawling.

They saw Carter Smith killing his companions, some with mantis knives, and some with pistols, screaming frantically and rushing forward.

Carter activated the neural operating system, slightly bent his knees to activate the rotor of the prosthetic body, and sprinted straight away, cutting off the heads of the three with a flash of red light.

Three heads flew to the ground and rolled on the side of the road, and the three headless corpses fell silently after standing for a while.

The onlookers immediately exclaimed when they saw the Arasaka employees who were killing people, and they activated the prosthetic bodies or took out their mobile phones to start filming.

But before Carter could withdraw his knife, he heard several drones in the sky issuing warnings.

"G4 employee of Arasaka Corporation, deputy head of counterintelligence department, Carter Smith!"

"Put down your weapon immediately and report back to Arasaka Tower!"

Carter turned around and saw that it was the special service team. He dispatched five formations and surrounded him from all directions with nowhere to escape.

Knowing that he was doomed, Carter sneered.

"I knew that I would die at the hands of the company, but I didn't expect this day to come so soon."

With a miserable smile.

His prosthetic eyes turned yellow circles, and in a last-ditch effort, he sent a message to Susan Abernathy begging her to spare his mother, Mary.

Then dial the mother Mary communication again.

"Carter! There's a knock on the door!"

"You asked me to wait for you, I didn't open the door!"

"They said they were your friends!"

When Carter heard his mother's plea for help, his eyes were wide and bloodshot, and he fell into an explosion madness.

After all, they did it to their mother, Mary.

He tightly held the thermal katana in both hands, his whole body was trembling, and his eyes began to tremble strangely again.

"Mom, I'm sorry for you."

"I have a pistol in my room, please"

Carter couldn't say that no matter what, but it would only be more miserable if he was caught by the company's people.

"Carter, I see"

After a while.

boom!
Suddenly there was a gunshot on the other end of the phone.

Carter ran away completely, looking up to the sky and screaming and wailing.

"Ahhhh!!!"

Tears ran down his cheeks helplessly.

Accompanied by the final hoarseness, Carter drew his knife blankly and rushed to the special service team to kill.

"Carter Smith intends to attack the Arasaka Special Service Team. He is suspected of having a cyberpsychotic attack. Clear him immediately!"

moment.

Carter felt his whole body stiff, and all the prosthetic bodies were uncontrollably issuing warnings, and the swung knife could not be cut off for a long time.

boom!
A shot goes off!
When Carter was unable to move, a bloody hole appeared in his forehead, and then he collapsed to the ground, his eyes wide open, as if revealing unwillingness and guilt.

The Arasaka special service team quickly surrounded Carter Smith's body, and then returned to report: "Report, Carter Smith violated the company's regulations, and the cybernetic prosthesis was out of control, and he was executed for removal."

soon.

All employee information about Carter in the company was locked, and related benefits were stopped.

Carter fell to the ground and bled profusely, and the biological monitoring signal on his neck automatically issued a reminder.

"Your trauma team insurance has been canceled by your Arasaka company, if you need our help, please"

It didn't take long.

Pfft!
A wave splashed on the calm bay water.

The corpses bundled into rice dumplings were thrown into the bottom of the sea where the depths could not be seen.
