Cyberpunk: 2075

How does it feel to stand in an elevator with Adam Hammer?

Karl doesn't know about others, but as far as he is concerned, this kind of 'noble' treatment, which is rare in Night City and even in the whole world, is the only feeling it brings to him.

Very crowded.

Mr. Adam Hammer's mechanical body is too huge, and it is very crowded for two people in a rapidly descending elevator room.

Looking down the floor, Karl contacted Kenichi Shiro on the communication line.

Carl: Mr. Kenichi Shiro, why don’t you remotely shut down the prosthetics of those people? They should all be employees within Arasaka. Don’t you have the authority?

Kenichi Shiro: Matsudaira was not unprepared for anything. His only surprise was that he did not expect that Miss Haruko would come today and take action right here. His subordinates had already used his status as vice president to remove their authority. Mrs. Michiko Without him, he is one of the top managers of Night City. These people cannot be blocked after their authority disappears.

Carl: That’s right.

After stopping asking, Karl looked up at Adam Hammer, who was much taller than him, and then he experienced his second feeling when he and Adam Hammer squeezed into the elevator.

That's why this guy's mouth really stinks.

"You're a brat who doesn't even have hair. I won't have time to help you clean up your wet pants later."

Adam glanced at Karl's arm: "And your hand, don't get interrupted again today."

"You really don't speak very nicely, Mr. Adam Hammer."

Karl kept smiling. For the person who saved his life in a moral sense, he just had a bad mouth.

Karl can still tolerate it, but this does not mean that he will not come back with a bad mouth:

"I thought that Mr. Adam Hammer, who is a machine and can't even pee his pants, said this because he was envious of my other healthy parts. Of course I have to be careful with my hands, otherwise I will be miserable like you and be beaten all over my body. Damn it, all that’s left is his head and his tough mouth.”

"Bastard boy."

The scarlet prosthetic eyes showed a glaring attitude, but Karl did not feel much murderous intent from them.

Just like a purely physical topic would not make him angry or break his defenses.

After the two exchanged blows for a while, there was silence for a few seconds on the way down the stairs, and then Adam Hammer spoke again, asking a question that Karl never thought he would say:

"You and Haruko have a good relationship?"

ah?

Karl had to admit that when he heard this sentence from Adam Heavy Hammer, he did not feel much coldness.

On the contrary, people were stunned for a moment when they felt like they were asking questions normally.

This mechanical cold-blooded monster would still ask this?

And Haruko, just call her by name...:: Could it be that he has something to do with Haruko?

Karl found it hard to understand, but before he could answer, the sound of the stairs arriving had already sounded.

"Let's do the work first. I'll ask you later. I'm an easy boy. I hope your skills and guns can be as loud as your mouth."

After these words, before the door was opened, gunfire rang out from outside.

Someone sensed the arrival of the elevator and launched an attack before the elevator opened.

It seems that the group of traitors has taken control of this floor and intends to interrupt possible enemy support.

The elevator door, which was originally only used by employees, naturally couldn't stop bullets, but the door didn't open, which didn't mean that Carl and Adam Hammer couldn't get out.

In almost an instant, the threat that Karl felt in front of him increased countless times. The eyes of Adam Heavy Hammer in front of him became blood red, and his figure became blurry. At this moment, he was violently Model and Sianwistan start at the same time.

The huge arms of the machine grabbed the elevator door and tore it open with incomparable force. As the elevator structure twisted, a huge shadow jumped out of the elevator.

“Da da da da da da—

"Ding-ding-ding-ding-"

?

There was a sharp contrast between the dense bullets and the feeble impact on the metal. Amidst the sparks caused by the bullets, the heavy hammer stepped forward.

"boom!"

It was just a charging iron mountain support. The four Arasaka uniforms who launched the attack five meters outside the elevator door were turned into flesh. Their bodies were broken into pieces of bones with blood and scattered everywhere. In the rest of Arasaka, Before any of the personnel could react in panic, Adam's heavy arm swung, and his infinite wrist strength followed his movements and swept past the other Arasaka personnel on the right.

The results of these Arasaka personnel were better than those of the Arasaka personnel who were directly hit, in terms of the appearance of death. At least they could maintain the integrity of their heads that flew out.

And during this slow time in perception, another figure rushing out of the elevator behind Adam Heavy Hammer was not slow in his movements. His left wrist lit up with the light of a single molecular line, which changed as he rushed forward. It became an arc-shaped light blade, and when it passed by the people on the left side of Adam's Hammer who had not yet had time to clean up, the single molecular line on it passed through the waists of those people, and was cut into the waist and slowly sprayed out in the blood. , the single molecule line is still as clean as new.

Time continues to flow normally in the senses.

All the Arasaka personnel who blocked the door and launched the attack were dead.

"Slow down, kid."

"After all, it's still no match for being covered in iron blocks with cannon fire."

"Wrong boy."

Adam's heavy hammer suddenly raised his right hand, and a ninja who was in the shadows and was about to attack with a mantis knife was intercepted by the power of his right hand, and was lifted into the sky in an uncontrolled posture.

"This is a cannon."

Adam's heavy hammer said so, and raised his right hand, aiming at the ninja who had smashed the ceiling into a spider web-like crack and was falling down due to the reaction force.

"Boom!"

In the flames that burst out from Adam's heavy hammer's arm, the ninja who was already half dead due to the heavy blow was completely turned into blood foam.

"I would rather see you torn apart. If you hit like this, there is a smell of blood in the air. You'd better consider those who don't have lung filters."

Carl complained, but he was not slow in his movements. He met another ninja who rushed out from his side and wanted to kill him. He met the end of the night with his right hand. When the ninja tried to swing the mantis knife from mid-air, the dagger below the end of the night had already pierced deeply into the ninja's throat as Carl rushed forward.

Lifting the dead body with one hand, Carl swung it aside, letting his Night's End dagger escape from the ninja's throat, and then said: "This is what we call fighting."

"Very good."

Adam Heavy Hammer stared at Carl: "Fighting, like war, has always been indispensable to me...:,

If you have the ability to compete with me in killing, keep trying, kid."

"That's what I mean."

Carl shook off the blood on Night's End.

"After all, this is a chance to compete with legends."
