Cyberpunk: Spartan Walker

Jefferson's Proclamation Day, Neon Street.

Report, this is the Beta reconnaissance point, and no suspicious circumstances have been found. The Arasaka Task Force sniper lying in front of Tommy reported to his superiors.

There was a booby trap placed behind him, and Tommy could clearly see a red line through the infrared surveillance function of his helmet.

Looking down through the transparent glass of the overpass, the crowds are surging and noisy. In the sultry weather, everyone is sweating profusely. The sweat beads reflect the neon lights, and the colors cover the entire neon street.

The floating platform is coming soon, everyone should be on alert! The superior's voice came from the sniper's communication equipment.

In the distance, a white floating platform with blue tail flames coming from the bottom floated slowly. The platform consists of three parts, large in the middle and small on both sides.

That is? Tommy narrowed his eyes behind the helmet.

[Call: Kamano Nana]

The call happened to come.

[Nana, is that you? 】

[Hehe, it’s me. Are you surprised? 】The beautiful shadow on the platform on the right is beating.

【.A little more frightened. 】

[I hate it~Brother~] Kamano Nana said coquettishly.

【Why are you there? 】

[The company sent me here, Arasaka is supporting Jefferson behind the scenes~] Kamano Nana’s voice paused, [Things in dreams]

【What's wrong? 】 Tommy's plan has changed a little, and he plans to ask Rebecca to do a favor.

[Pavilion. Burning Pavilion.] Kamano Nana's voice became dull, and the dancing figure stopped.

【What? 】

【.Nothing, the things in the dream just appeared in front of my eyes. 】

Something wasn't right. After the lecture, he wanted to ask what was going on.

[Let’s talk about it later, I’m going to start here. 】

Then Kamano Nana on the right platform took the lead in singing a campaign support song. It seemed that Arasaka specially composed the song to build momentum for Jefferson.

[Call: Rebecca]

【Uncle? 】

[Becca, Nana Kamano is on that floating platform. 】

Tommy sorted out the equipment he carried - SRS99 sniper rifle, Magnum pistol, plasma energy sword, mobile stealth cloak accessories and several M9 fragmentation grenades.

Raindrops fell from the sky, hitting Tommy's helmet with a crackling sound. The moving water droplets disabled his motion detector, and the radar in the lower left corner of the helmet's HUD was filled with tiny red dots.

【ha? What is she doing up there? ! 】Rebecca's surprised cry came from over there.

After the song was sung, Jefferson came on stage to give a speech. Tommy, who was in a state of invisibility, bypassed the sniper in front and did nothing to him.

At this time, a sudden change occurred. The floating platform suddenly stopped. The staff on the platform fell to the ground one after another, and then began to turn away from the original route.

Tommy's hands stopped moving, and all the preparations he had put in were in vain.

【Uncle? 】Rebecca urged from the opposite side.

[We’ll talk about this later. The route of the floating platform has changed. It seems to be heading towards you. 】

【so? 】

[Be safe, Beca is here, keep an eye on Nana for me. 】

Tommy climbed over the guardrail and jumped back and forth between floors, losing height rapidly.

[Really, why do you always ask me to do this kind of thing? 】

[Please, the situation has changed here, I will hang up now. 】

After reaching the bottom floor, Tommy rushed towards the floating platform that changed his route, causing rain to splash when his feet stepped on the ground.

——

On the floating platform.

The rainwater gathered in streams on the platform, then fell along the edge, hitting the heads of the crowd.

Jefferson was lying on the floor. The sudden stop of the floating platform just now threw him to the ground. His head was knocked dizzy. The powerful impact made him temporarily deaf, and a huge buzzing sound lingered next to his ears.

Poof the transparent bulletproof glass cover in front of him made a dull sound. Jefferson looked up and saw a large-caliber bullet embedded in the glass.

Mr. Mr. Pera someone seemed to be shouting next to him, but he really couldn't hear it clearly.

Jefferson's body was violently grabbed, and then shook violently, and the lost sounds suddenly came back - the continuous pounding of the rain, the roar of the bodyguards.

Mr. Peralez! Great! You have come to your senses! Bruce, whose hair was soaked and in a state of embarrassment, grabbed him and shouted happily, Let's go quickly! The assassin is coming!

Jefferson looked to the side and saw bodyguards hiding in a temporary bunker and shooting at the buildings on both sides. From time to time, someone fell down, and the blood that flowed out mixed with the rain on the ground, and a piece of blood was pulled out. A scarlet liquid carpet.

Bruce put one of his arms on his shoulders and walked quickly towards the stairs of the floating platform-following this staircase can reach the inside of the platform, where you can avoid being attacked by snipers.

The room inside the platform is equipped with crocodile leather sofas and low mahogany tables. Dim yellow lights are cast from overhead. It is mainly for the big shots to rest. There are several bodyguards guarding here at this time.

You, go and close the pressure door! Bruce directed the other bodyguards and said. He is the captain of this bodyguard team and has been with Jefferson for some years.

The pressure door on the entrance staircase was closed, and the rainwater that drifted in disappeared without a trace.

Jefferson, are you injured? Elizabeth walked quickly towards him, carefully examining Jefferson's whole body. She was Jefferson's wife.

I'm fine, they couldn't touch me.

Hearing what Jefferson said, Elizabeth's brows relaxed slightly, That's good. The route of the floating platform suddenly changed. The Arasaka task force will not be able to get through for a while. We are safe here. Just wait for them to come. alright.

Ah!! A scream came from behind, and everyone suddenly turned their heads to look.

The sword blade passed through the chest of an unlucky bodyguard, and he struggled twice before hanging on it. Then the sword blade was retracted, the hand holding the sword shook, and the blood on the blade was thrown to the ground, making the red sword body even more ferocious.

This is just living an ignoble existence, Mrs. Peralez. A sturdy old man wearing a tattooed hakama and a short white goatee walked out of the shadows and looked at them with a half-smile from the corner of his eyes.

Protect Mr. and Mrs.! Fire freely! Bruce stood in front of the two of them, raised his pistol and aimed at the old man.

The other bodyguards moved in response, and gunfire erupted for a moment.

A gun is a weapon for the weak. The old man dodged to the side and then disappeared, leaving only the afterimage of his high-speed movement.

Bang bang. The bodyguards opened fire together, but they couldn't even catch his tail.

Afterimages flickered among the bodyguards, and heads and stumps flew up from time to time. The sprayed blood dyed the mural in the room red, and the man in the painting smiled particularly weirdly.

Damn it! Bruce fired continuously, but it had no effect at all.

After a while, there were only four of them left on the field.

The tip of the sword was dripping with blood, and the old man's figure appeared again.

My name is Yamaguchi Yuito. The old man held a sword flower in his arm, Don't forget it when you cross the Yellow Spring! Yamaguchi Yuito shouted, and then rushed towards Jefferson with the afterimage.

In an instant, Bruce's head flew up, and the cold light pierced Jefferson.

Bang! A high-explosive pistol bullet hit Yamaguchi Yuto's sword. The broken sword flew high and was then inserted into the ceiling of the room.

Who is it?! Yuto Yamaguchi jumped away from Jefferson several times in a row. The shot just now could not have missed.

What organization are you? Why do you want to assassinate Jefferson? Tommy opened the pressure door with his bare hands and jumped in front of Jefferson from the stairs.

Jefferson and Elizabeth had not yet recovered from the fear of death, and stared blankly at Tommy's back.

Oh, he blocked the glorious evolution! The blue light in Yamaguchi Yuto's eyes flashed, as if he was laughing at their overestimation.

Blue eyes again, evolution again, who are they?

What is 'Glorious Evolution'? Tommy asked.

That's it. Why should I tell you? Yamaguchi Yuto pulled out a samurai sword from the scabbard on his back.

Let's talk about it, we are all going to die anyway. Tommy's hand on the pistol tightened, this old guy talks a lot of nonsense.

Oh, what a cunning cyber demon, you're trying to trick me. Yuuto Yamaguchi raised his katana to his chest, Forget it, it doesn't matter. I've seen your Mewtwo. His swordsmanship is good, but compared to mine. You’re still a little short, do you dare to duel with me?”

[Tommy, this old man is so shameless, chop him to death. ] Ellie's voice was a bit impatient.

Tommy nodded slightly, took back his pistol and touched the energy sword at his waist.

Puff! The superheated plasma blade popped out, and a frightening buzz echoed.
