Chapter 125 Attack on the Arasaka Convoy
Chapter 125 Attack on the Arasaka Convoy
In the endless wilderness, BT was lying bored on the passenger seat, looking at the turbaned Indian man sitting in the driver's seat.
"Hey Narayan, why do you always wear that big turban? Is it made of Kevlar? Is it bulletproof?"
Narayan looked at his unsteady "sitting posture", with his feet still resting on the front gear of his beloved car.
He already had a bad impression of BT, and now when he heard him insulting his beliefs, he became furious and glared at him fiercely.
"If you don't know, don't talk nonsense. This is our Sikh tradition. Damn it, if it weren't for the fact that you are one of the best lone wolves, I wouldn't partner with you."
Narayan knew that this guy was a moron, so he didn't bother with him.
BT pulled up the seat's lifter, returned the seat to its original position, and elbowed Narayan in the chest.
"I'm not saying anything, but you're driving a combat taxi just fine, why do you want to be a mercenary? You're in the middle of gunfire, aren't you afraid that you might lose your life one day?"
BT, as an AI, really doesn't understand all this. It's obvious that humans only have one life and a stable life, but they still work so hard that they risk their lives. In his eyes, it doesn't make sense.
It's obvious that Narayan can make a living as a combat taxi driver, but he still has to work as a mercenary. I really feel it's not worth it for him.
"Are you serious?" Narayan looked back at BT, and after making sure that he was not joking, he was amused by his train of thought.
"Hahahahaha~"
Narayan let out a deafening laugh, confusing BT.
"What are you laughing at? Did I say anything wrong?"
BT looked at Narayan innocently, and it was obvious that he didn't know where he went wrong.
Narayan laughed so hard that tears came out. He wiped away the tears with his right hand and said, "Hahaha, we are about to carry out the mission. Can you please stop making me laugh? I have seen stupid people, but I have never seen anyone as stupid as you."
"I don't know."
"Okay, okay, I'll tell you, but you're not allowed to talk after I tell you the answer." In order not to affect the subsequent tasks, Narayan still solved the doubts for BT.
“First of all, combat taxis are already a sunset industry. That damned Delaman has taken away all our business.
Just like REO EMS, which was squeezed out by the trauma team and is now on par with the scavengers."
BT nodded. He knew something about REO. It was an old company with a history of at least sixty or seventy years.
The equipment used at the time was an armed medical vehicle, which was not only equipped with armed personnel, but also had a turret. In terms of majesty, it was no less impressive than today's trauma team.
Now it has become a cheap service in Night City, with a shabby van, medical staff reduced from two to one, and no armed personnel.
As a cheap service, if their customers die in the car, the prosthetic body will be given to the crew at a low price.
Of course, this refers to some members who cooperate with the Night City Municipal Government, such as Gloria.
The part that does not belong to the municipal government is no different from a scavenger. No matter whether you are dead or not, all your prosthetics will be stripped off.
At this point, Narayan angrily punched the steering wheel. "I don't know what the city government is doing. They actually let a vagrant AI open a company in Night City!"
Narayan was of course angry. As a driverless taxi, the Deraman Combat Taxi avoided the concerns of drivers robbing each other.
Moreover, Delaman's service is indeed top-notch and avoids the risk of information leakage. This alone is enough to crush ordinary combat taxis.
Therefore, as a combat taxi driver, Narayan naturally had to find another way out. If there was a stable job, who would want to take risks? Especially since Narayan was an Indian.
"I understand what you said." BT deeply agreed.
Except for a few people, AI has an overwhelming advantage over ordinary people. Unfortunately, BT is not Delaman, and he has encountered one of those few people.
But the good news is that he is living a pretty good life now. If you must say, he is even living a better life than Delaman. He has completely integrated into the human race.
As a non-human transformed AI, he is the only one who can achieve this, at least he is the only one at the moment.
"Okay, let's stop talking. The Arasaka team has already come out. According to normal operations, Faraday will send people to divert them.
I just don’t know if we are the cannon fodder for those diversions.”
Seeing that the Arasaka convoy was approaching, Narayan immediately stopped the topic.
"Don't worry, I'm Faraday's trump card. He won't let me be a cannon fodder." BT said confidently.
Hearing BT say this, Narayan also smiled.
That is why he would partner with BT, otherwise he would not care about this "retard". This is also a little cunning of Narayan as an Indian.
Arasaka's convoy was successfully divided into three sections, and Narayan only needed to target the main convoy.
"Wow, Arasaka's ninja troops are so fierce!"
The rear door of the Arasaka troop carrier opened wide, and two special forces soldiers dressed as ninjas came out. These were the special ninja troops of the Arasaka Company.
The only difference is that compared to the shurikens used by traditional ninjas, they use rifles, and electromagnetic rifles at that, which makes people exclaim in amazement.
Good news, times have changed and the era of ninjas is over.
Bad news, they have completed industrial upgrading and are more advanced than you.
The age of the ninja may be over, but it's a little unlikely that the age of the ninja will end.
Narayan looked at Arasaka's special forces. Two of them destroyed four or five vehicles. Their firepower was really enviable.
"Stop talking nonsense, it's our turn." BT reminded.
BT now just felt that this Indian guy was a little unreliable, and he silently raised his vigilance.
Narayan stepped on the accelerator and caught up with the main group of Arasaka vehicles.
Under the yellow earth all over the sky, anyone who is not blind can tell that there is a car following.
Arasaka's security was certainly not blind, but it was useless. BT used a large-caliber sniper rifle to directly blow through the driver's head.
With Narayan's cooperation, the car was overturned.
"Deal with one."
"Don't let your guard down, there's a car catching up from behind." Narayan saw through the rearview mirror that an Arasaka security vehicle was idling and then closing in on their car's rear.
"I'll take care of them."
As he said that, BT opened the passenger door, turned on the Sian Westin and jumped onto the roof of Arasaka's car.
"Fuck, this is crazy." This outrageous operation shocked Narayan.
"Arasaka-san, the Sakura of my hometown has opened."
A smile appeared on BT's lips, two pistols appeared in his hands, and he pulled the trigger with his index finger, ending the lives of those Arasaka soldiers.
It’s a pity that the soldiers couldn’t hear him. If they could hear him, they would have said it.
"Sang your mother Sang, I am America, a true Star-Spangled Banner man."
