Game world survival starts from Resident Evil 2
Chapter 264 What is Night City?
"Li You, someone is catching up!"
Aiji leaned out of the car window and looked behind.
"Smash their tires!"
Li You didn't bother to look. Although the car he robbed was an old car, the rearview mirror was still electronic, that is, two cameras. He couldn't see the back without personal connection.
"No, I can't shoot the tires!" Aiji shouted, "It's a flying car!"
"Fuck!" Li You cursed, and the hovercraft really caught up.
This thing might be difficult to break with the firepower of the guns in his hands. Considering that there was an unconscious wounded person to take care of, he could only run now.
It started to rain heavily in the sky, hitting the windshield, but Li You couldn't find the wiper switch, so he had to bite the bullet and continue driving.
He drove down the viaduct and passed through the sparse traffic on the street. There was a fork in the road in front of him. The left one went straight ahead, and the right one was an upward overpass.
"This is the Valley area of Heywood, next to the Meiquan area. There is a car chasing behind, and in front is the municipal office area, which is heavily guarded. Which way should I go?"
Li You's brain was working fast, recalling the layout and settings of Night City that he knew in the past, as well as the road signs he had just seen.
"...cross the coast and go to Taiping Island!"
Li You stepped on the accelerator and chose the road on the left directly!
It was late at night, and there were not many cars on the road, which also provided convenience for Li You.
However, despite this, he was not familiar with the car and road conditions, and he still scraped and even collided with the car next to him, which attracted screams and curses.
Even Edge shouted: "Li You! Drive steadily, are you going to save the person behind you!?"
Li You didn't answer, drove across the street, turned left and right according to the instructions of the street signs, and soon entered an underground tunnel, thereby successfully getting rid of the pursuit of the hovercraft.
Two NCPD police cars followed behind, but Edge took the opportunity to lean out and shot the tires, spinning and crashing into the side wall of the underground passage, stopping there.
Ignoring the curses from behind, Li You continued to accelerate, quickly drove out of the underground tunnel, and moved forward along the seaside bridge, successfully entering Taiping Island.
Seeing that the pursuers had not caught up yet, he stopped suddenly, crashed the car into the roadside wall and braked, and then he and Edge quickly got out of the car and carried Sasha down again.
"Go this way, hide in this abandoned apartment!"
The place where he parked the car was across the street from the West Wind Apartment, which was where the protagonist V in the game would come in the main mission. There was no one here, and the NCPD and the company rarely extended their influence here, which was just right for hiding.
The West Wind Apartment had been abandoned for a long time. Although the structure was intact, only the first floor was occupied and a prosthetics store was opened. As for the upper floor, part of it was blocked by barbed wire, and only some refugees would temporarily live in the remaining rooms.
Aiji held Sasha in his arms, and Li You led the way. The two climbed to the upper floor of the apartment. Li You kicked open the isolation wire mesh supported by the sundries box, picked a relatively clean room at random, broke through the window and rushed in.
Aiji put Sasha down on the bed, checked the wound on her leg, and breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, it's just a shallow penetration wound, no artery was injured... Wait!"
Li You, who was busy removing the traces, asked hurriedly: "What's wrong?"
But Aiji held Sasha's hand and said in surprise: "Her hand is... a prosthesis?"
"Also, what are these on her face... the back of her head?"
Li You breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that Aiji was surprised by this.
"Are there no other injuries?"
"Except for these mechanical parts that I don't understand, everything else is fine. Just treat this wound for her. Li You, give me a medical kit."
Li You took a small package out of his backpack and threw it to Aiji. It was a medical kit she configured by herself, which contained both conventional medical supplies and special props such as potions in the wound medicine gourd.
Aggie treated Sasha very skillfully, cleaning the wound, using medicine to promote healing, and finally sewed and bandaged it. She had never thought that the medical knowledge she had learned before would be so useful now.
Finally, Aggie frowned and looked at the surrounding environment, pinched her nose, turned out a relatively clean and worn-out sheet, covered Sasha with it, and let her sleep peacefully.
Then, she sat on the bed and asked Li You: "Can you explain the situation now? What's going on in this world?"
Li You smiled: "Of course. In short, we came to a near-future world this time..."
He explained the situation of this world to Aggie in the most concise language possible, which surprised her.
"So now, we are in 2076?"
Li You nodded.
"This..." Aggie was a little confused. For her, who was still living in the 2010s before crossing, it was still a bit sudden to jump into the future for more than 60 years.
But now that I think about it, I've seen flying cars before, so it's only the year 2076, so it's not really worth being surprised. She thought about it and asked another question.
"Since it's so far in the future, why do these places look... as bad as before?"
Li Youle, your complaints are pretty accurate, right?
After all, the main theme of the cyberpunk worldview is "high technology, low life".
The level of technology is beyond reality, but it has not developed to the extent that it can solve all contradictions. Instead, the boundless expansion of capital controls the world, resulting in a further widening of the per capita gap. The living standards of the lower class are not as good as more than half a century ago... This is cyberpunk.
Li You roughly explained it, and Edge sighed: "That is really a... finished world."
"That's true." Li You deeply agrees.
Edge looked at the turbid night sky outside the window and said: "But since you are here, let me see the extraordinary things in the future."
"By the way, since this world is so advanced, wouldn't it be too conspicuous for us to hide here? Will we be found?"
Li You thought about it and replied: "This shouldn't happen. Our current location is called Taipingzhou, in the south of Night City. It is an area that neither NCPD nor corporate forces are willing to intervene. As long as we don't stand on the street and wait foolishly, the pursuers should withdraw after pretending to do so."
These terms in Li You's words made Edge's head a little confused, but she quickly sorted out the situation and began to quickly absorb the knowledge related to this world.
Taipingzhou has two major districts, West Wind Manor and Seaview District. It was once a place where many investors planned to build large-scale projects. Unfortunately, due to the sequelae of the war and the strong resistance of local residents and gangs, the construction plan was eventually scrapped.
With the withdrawal of corporate forces and NCPD, and the closure of municipal services, Taipingzhou has become a semi-lawless place. Now it is mainly occupied by a gang called "Voodoo Gang", and other gangs will occasionally show up... In short, it is very chaotic.
Of course, if we talk about lawless places, Taipingzhou is definitely far inferior to the nearby Dog Town, but that's all later. Li You doesn't plan to go to Dog Town for a ride now.
"What should we do next? Wait here until dawn? Then what?" Aggie asked, "After all, what is the mission of our world?"
Li You was about to answer, but his eyes suddenly moved, and Aggie felt a breeze behind him, and then a hand strangled her throat, and slender and sharp claws stretched out from the nails and pressed against her chin.
"——Don't move!"
A still childish voice sounded in her ears, and Edge subconsciously grabbed the wrist of that hand, but then stopped moving.
"Who are you and why am I here? Speak!"
From Li You's perspective, he could see Sasha squatting on the bed behind Edge, with the long claws of her right hand against Edge, and her left hand reaching for the pistol at her waist, but it was empty.
Sasha tried to make a fierce expression and stared at Li You, but looking at her childish face, Li You just felt like seeing a kitten with its fur standing up.
He and Edge of course did not resist on purpose. Sasha's physical ability was not outstanding. Although she had fighting ability, she could not beat any of them.
It was just that Edge was kind-hearted, and Li You considered it, so he did not subdue her immediately.
"Calm down, we are not enemies." Li You began the usual persuasion steps, but Sasha did not appreciate it. Li You just raised his hand slightly, and she pulled Edge back like a wild cat, and her long claws left a few blood spots on Edge's neck.
Li You frowned slightly, and immediately said to Edge in the mental link: "Take her down."
Edge did not object, so Li You first raised his hands to indicate that he had no ill intentions, and then said: "You are Sasha, right? Don't worry, we..."
Suddenly hearing her name, Sasha's attention was naturally attracted.
And at this moment, Edge suddenly took action, grabbed Sasha, and held the long claws on her hand with five fingers. She turned around and stood up, twisted Sasha's arm, and then suppressed all her resistance and pressed her firmly on the bed.
Li You threw a rope over, and Edge tied Sasha's hands tightly with it, then let her go and said, "You'd better be careful, you need to rest for the wound on your leg."
Sasha looked at the two of them, her face full of astonishment: "You... You don't have a prosthetic body, why do you have such great power? You..."
Aiji was moving the hand that had grabbed the long claws, and there were several wounds on his hand from the sharp claws, but Aiji just shook the blood off his hand, and then poured Li You's wound medicine gourd on it, and those wounds recovered at a speed visible to the naked eye.
This scene was also captured by Sasha's prosthetic eye, and she was immediately shocked: "I have never heard of this level of biological enhancement... Are you really people in biotechnology!?"
As she said, she gritted her teeth: "Don't try to get any information from me!"
Li You didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Don't be nervous, I told you, we are not enemies, and we are not from biotechnology."
"You're lying!"
Li You said helplessly: "You can tell by just scanning us quickly, right? We don't even have the most basic implants, do you think we are from the company?"
Sasha was stunned, and scanned the two people as he said, with a look of doubt on his face: "Then how do I know that you are not a secret force trained by biotechnology, specializing in shady work?"
"The little girl has a rich imagination... Wait a minute, with the style of the company, this may not be impossible?" Li You wanted to complain, but stopped talking.
"It shouldn't be... Even if it is a secret force, it would be too inefficient for them not to have implants."
Li You paused for a moment, and Sasha saw it. She immediately said, "How is it? Was I right?"
Li You twitched his mouth and said, "The little girl is quite suspicious. But it's okay. In this ghost place of Night City, those who trust others have already gone to the grave."
-Except for the protagonist of the game, V Zhentian.
Hearing Li You's evaluation, Sasha's first reaction was to raise her head proudly. But she immediately came to her senses and said hurriedly, "That's it! So, I advise you not to waste your efforts!" Before Li You could think of how to reply, Edge sat next to Sasha and gently touched her hair.
Sasha's reaction was like a cat whose tail was suddenly grabbed by someone. She trembled all over and even bounced on the bed: "What are you doing!?"
Aiji didn't say anything polite to her. He held her down, then gently combed her short black hair and said, "Little girl, don't always talk about fighting and killing. Don't worry, you are safe. We just happened to save you and brought you here."
Feeling Aiji's meticulous movements, Sasha was also stunned. She finally realized that something was wrong. If the two people in front of her were from biotechnology, there was no need to lock her up here, let alone do things like combing her hair.
"You are really not from biotechnology? But... my system has a malfunction, and I can't even contact others. Isn't this because you implanted a virus?" Sasha asked uncertainly.
"System malfunction?" Li You was stunned, and quickly went through the plot of the MV in his mind, and then noticed something, "Could it be that you were injured in the explosion before? Do you want to check yourself?"
Sasha was also stunned, and quickly ran a system self-check, and then her face immediately turned red.
"This... it seems to be true. It was caused by my forced disconnection before... I misunderstood you, I'm very sorry..."
The more she spoke, the smaller her voice became, and finally she lowered her head like a mosquito.
Aiji touched her head comfortingly and said nothing more.
Li You looked at her profile from the side, thinking.
Based on the official animation MV, he still had a deep impression of Sasha.
The MV tells the story of a girl named Sasha who accidentally discovered the dark side of a certain painkiller produced by Biotech when she was independently carrying out a commission to sneak into the building of Biotech and steal intelligence.
Sasha's mother died because of the side effects of taking this drug. When she saw these contents and saw that Biotech still did not intend to announce the side effects and withdraw the drug, she decided to do something.
She had completed her original mission, but did not retreat immediately. Instead, she chose to upload the information about this drug to N54, a well-known media channel in Night City, to announce the crimes of Biotech.
But data uploading takes time, and the jammer she set up when she came has failed, and Sasha is discovered by the security system in the building.
In order to delay time, she fought with a group of security robots, and finally waited for the data upload to be completed, but she herself fell to her death in the explosion.
When she left, she was still lying on the roof of a passing car with a smile on her face. There was heavy rain falling in the night, and the raindrops crossed her face, like tears of regret and relief.
Li You didn't expect to meet Sasha. After realizing that he was in Night City, his first reaction must be to confirm where the protagonist V of the game is and where the main line of the game has progressed.
Unexpectedly, he came in at the beginning of 2076 and just saved Sasha.
And since it is 2076, the preliminary action plan he had drawn up before is useless and needs to be re-planned.
Taking advantage of Sasha's temporary calmness, Li You opened the system and looked at the main tasks of this world and the opening lottery props that he had not yet received.
Interestingly, the main task of this world actually requires him to become a "real legend"?
This is very interesting. In the judgment of the system, what is a "real" legend?
If it is alive, this should be certain. Is there anything else? Are there any other conditions?
The main tasks of the system have always been vague and rigorous. The vagueness lies in the fact that the main tasks it publishes have a lot of descriptive content and are not accurate, but it will strictly implement them according to its actual judgment, so it is crucial to correctly interpret the main tasks.
"But after all, I came to Night City a year in advance, and it seems that I have the conditions to prepare a lot of things."
Decide what to do in this world first, and then proceed slowly. After Li You thought about it, he looked at the rewards drawn.
The three familiar light balls were waiting for confirmation, and Li You opened them one by one.
[Basic Prosthetic Set]
[Item Description: The most basic implant prepared for you, including brain-computer interface and personal terminal, with available identity authentication information, automatically installed. Subsequent transformation can be completed by yourself in this world. ]
Li You pondered.
The system is quite thoughtful. At least it has prepared the most basic things for him to survive in the cyberpunk world. If he came here as an ordinary person, he probably wouldn't have to consider it at all and could only choose this.
But now...?
Li You waved his hand and skipped this option.
His current physical data is already ridiculously high, 23 points of strength, 20 points of agility, and the other three data are also close, and there are more than one full-attribute skill books in the backpack that have not been used.
From this perspective, it is obvious that genetic ascension is more suitable for him! His flesh and blood are not weak, so he does not need to take the path of mechanical ascension.
Moreover, if the body is transformed into a prosthesis, it may be okay if it is just a brain-computer interface, but if prosthetic limbs are added, his Qi cultivation will definitely be affected, and his combat effectiveness will be greatly weakened.
In that case, unless all the top prostheses in this world view are installed on the body, it is possible to make up for the missing combat effectiveness. But there is a risk of cyberpsychosis.
So Li You did not consider flying by machine at all.
What is the weakness of flesh and blood? How can a machine be better than a well-trained body (referring to adding points)!
The second option.
[Specialized smartphone]
[Item description: A high-end smartphone produced in the cyberpunk world, which can interact with the technological products of this world and comes with various functions. ]
[Note: It does not come with the identity authentication information of this world. ]
"This prompt clearly wants me to choose the first one." Li You complained.
Dream on! He has long said that if he believes in the system's misleading content again, he will be a dog!
"The third one!"
[Unified]
[Item Description: Kinetic pistol produced by Cyberpunk World. It is not advanced, but it is not bad. In fact, it is quite good. It is easy to use, comfortable to grip, and reliable. It is welcomed by many mercenaries. Don't hesitate. ]
Li You: "6."
Classic props to make up the number.
This thing is one of the favorites of the protagonist V in the game. He always carries one in his four-dimensional anus, and even hides it from the players. But Li You doesn't need this thing.
Needless to say, Li You chose the second item, and a delicate smart phone appeared in his hand.
After playing with it briefly, Li You found that the functions on it were still very complete, and basically all those that can be found in the game were available.
For example, video calls, radio stations, payment, identity authentication, and even calling vehicles are available-it's just that he doesn't have a car to call now.
Just at this time, Sasha seemed to have solved her own system failure. She looked at Li You and Aggie and said:
"Thank you for saving me...really. This way my sister won't be sad."
"I really hope to give you some compensation, but I don't have cash now..."
Li You waved his hand: "No need for that, I just did it for fun. If you want to thank us, just do me a small favor."
Sasha's eyes moved slightly and asked: "What favor?"
Li You smiled and said: "It's very simple. You are a hacker, right? Help me make an identity account in Night City, that's it."
Sasha was obviously stunned: "Is that all? Nothing else?"
"No, this is all."
Li You actually wanted to build a good relationship with Sasha and her Mann team, but it would be too hasty to mention this right now, so don't rush.
Sasha nodded and said, "In this case, it's really not a big problem, but I need equipment, which can't be done here, so I have to go to my house."
Li You immediately said, "Then let's take you back. You have a leg injury, so it's inconvenient."
Sasha wanted to say that this was too troublesome, but after thinking about it, he would need to be present to make an identity certificate for Li You anyway, so he didn't refuse.
"Then I'll leave it to you."
"Then let's go. Aggie, please take care of Sasha." Li You clapped his hands.
The three of them left Xifeng Apartment immediately, and Aggie helped Sasha inconspicuously to prevent her leg injury from looking too conspicuous.
This time, Li You found an inconspicuous old car on the side of the road, broke the door violently and let the two sit in it.
"Can you help crack the security program of this car?"
In the game, if you want to pry away a parked car, you need technical attributes of varying points, and of course, Li You has no relevant knowledge, so he can only rely on Sasha.
"Wait a minute." Sasha's eyes lit up with electronic light, and she quickly cracked the car's security program and helped start it.
"You're welcome." She gave Li You a naughty smile.
Li You just smiled in response, then closed the car door and held the steering wheel: "Where are we going, your sister's house?"
Sasha's sister does appear in the game. She is a character added by the Shadow of the Past DLC, and will also issue a commission to the player, near the Pacific Ocean, at the entrance of Dog Town.
But Sasha shook her head: "No, go to my apartment. Is that a smartphone? I'll add a contact and send you the address."
Li You picked up the phone he had placed next to him and looked at it. There was a pink cat avatar in the address book, and the address she sent was in the chat box.
"The apartment on Japan Street?" Li You understood, "Fasten your seat belts, let's go!"
