Chapter 153 The Devil in the Fog!

"Ding! Get the basic point reward, and hand over the head of biotechnology research and development, Joanne Koch, to Arasaka Company without being discovered. The reward is 50 points. The current progress is 1/1."

Accompanied by the familiar system prompt, it echoed in David's mind.

It also means that the task on their side has been completely completed.

Standing on the rooftop of the biotech hotel.

Seeing the concealed floating container disappear into the sky, even David couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

From the current point of view, although the mission progress of both he and Jack is a bit tortuous, they are progressing smoothly according to the original plan.

After Jack put on his exoskeleton mechanical weapon, he directly and satisfactorily completed this stealth mission like a god of death.

And what's interesting is that even the second before Joanne was fanned out, she didn't understand why her secret call to security would have no effect.

After a short period of fuss, Jack directly rewarded her with the other's favorite big mouth.

And David himself directly swept away all kinds of high-end instruments in the hotel, and also sent the original genetically modified rice seeds that Jiang Chen needed to the group in the form of red envelopes.

Soon, the figures of the two left the crime scene after putting on the invisibility cloak and canceling the signal jammer.

V's call came immediately.

"You've done a good job! The biotechnology side hasn't found out that their company's hotel has been given to you, and now they want to throw the blame, and they are completely helpless!"

"Jenkins is very satisfied with your work efficiency, and the remuneration will be increased by another 20% after the concrete evidence is available."

Hearing this, Jack suddenly became energetic.

He hugged David's shoulder directly, and cheered him excitedly.

"My god, another % increase for Euros? David, we are well-developed, I knew there must be a future for you!"

This is 12 million euros!

It's enough for him to gain from doing missions in one or two years!
But now, after just hanging around with David for ten days, this income has basically been included in their pockets!
This made Jack, who had spent most of his life in small troubles, admire David's methods even more.

of course.

This small amount of extra reward is obviously not a big deal to David, who is already a big dog.

However, this move by V's immediate boss is obviously showing him goodwill, indicating that the other party has recognized their strength.

This is where David really feels rewarded.

Because this also means that as long as the next finishing tasks are successfully completed, then the thread here in Arasaka will be completely set up.

Naturally, he was one step closer to becoming a top middleman.

And after seeing Jack's performance, V couldn't help showing a little smile on his face.

Although her first impression of David was not very good, but now the other party has proved his value and strength with facts.

Letting Jack follow the other party is obviously more reliable than that guy messing around by himself.

It seems.

In the future cooperation matters, I can say a few more good words for them, so that Jenkins can spend more blood as a reward for future cooperation.

However, the subsequent planning obviously has to wait until later.

Although David's mission has been completed, there is obviously still a small process before completing his commission.

That is, when the corpse from Mann's side is also delivered to them, this matter will be completely over.

Thinking of this, V continued to ask the two of them.

"By the way, what's the situation with Mann's team now?"

"Just now they said they got the body, so they should be on their way back now."

While answering, David directly dialed Mann's number.

After all, V just happened to call now, so it would be better for Mann to report the situation directly to V, the employer, so as to save myself from relaying the situation later.

However, it was beyond David's expectation.

When the phone rang for a while and Mann connected, the voice from the other party caused David's expression to change slightly.

Because the first thing that came to everyone's ears was not Mann's iconic rough voice, but a loud roar of guns and the roar of night wandering ghosts.

Such a battle is obviously not a normal thing for the Mann team that has already obtained the corpse.

no doubt.

When David and the others acted just now, Mann's team also encountered some unexpected situations.

Thinking of this, David immediately asked Mann anxiously.

"Mann, what's the situation on your side now?"

It can be clearly judged from the voice from Mann just now.

They should be being chased crazily by a group of nocturnal ghosts, that's why they answered the phone so late.

After hearing David's words, Mann directly reported the situation on his side to the other party without any ink marks.

"We seem to have been betrayed by the inner ghost in the red ocher, and now the large army of night ghosts is about to surround us."

On the outskirts of the sandstorm where the yellow sand is flying all over the sky.

An extremely fast off-road pickup truck was being shot at by a dozen night wandering ghosts riding cool motorcycles.

And behind these motorcycle pioneers, there is a huge convoy that appears and disappears on the edge of the sandstorm.

no doubt.

The person who was chasing Mann and the others was obviously the huge convoy of Night Walkers.

After Mann and the others loaded the corpses onto their vehicle.

They immediately chose to return.

But even so.

They still encountered these nocturnal ghosts on the periphery of the sandstorm.

If it weren't for the intelligence detected in advance by the magic tools David gave.

Now they are probably completely surrounded by that huge convoy of night ghosts.

But even for a short time, he managed to escape unharmed.

But for the night ghosts fighting in the local area, it is obviously only a matter of time before they want to pull the Mann team into the encirclement again.

Now that David was finally able to get in touch, Mann naturally waited anxiously for the other party's arrangement.

This terrible situation directly made David's brows furrowed.

He saw the location sharing of Mann and others, even if they were traveling in both directions, it would take more than half an hour to meet with each other.

This also meant that Mann and the others had to rely on their own strength to survive the half hour.

If the opponent is just a night walker, then with his own smoke bomb, David believes that Mann and the others should be able to last this time.

But therein lies the problem.

Although Yeyougui felt that this was not a big deal right now, he didn't even notify the biotechnology side.

But if the time is delayed for too long, or if it is severely injured by its own flowery army.

In this case, those nocturnal ghosts must seek assistance in biotechnology.

If he couldn't join Mann and the others before the support force of biotechnology, then the only thing waiting for them was a dead end.

Thinking of this, David rushed to the road with Jack to call for a Delaman taxi, and asked V.

"V, can you save Mann and the others?"

If Arasaka could provide some help in this operation, things would obviously be much easier to handle.

However, V shook his head apologetically, and then continued.

"Abernathy's stinking face is now always stuck in our actions. It should be unrealistic for our support to reach the range of the Badlands."

But at this point, V still thought for a few seconds before continuing.

"However, if you can enter the range of Night City, then no matter how much biotechnology makes trouble, we can protect you."

The implication of this sentence is obviously that if Arasaka wants to help, at least the evidence needs to be sent to the range of Night City.

Although it still can't solve the urgent need, it can be regarded as a relatively good way to deal with it.

After all, even if David is confident that he can wipe out the Kangtao army hired by biotechnology alone.

But once such a shot is made, the matter will become a bit too big.

The struggle between companies is obviously the best solution for them to bite each other.

And if it's just outside of Night City, then the time is relatively less urgent.

After getting this exact answer, David also said to Mann.

"I've rushed over to you now, you hold on! If you can't do it, then throw out the secret weapon I gave you."

Regarding David's answer, Mann was slightly confused, and then fired back at the night ghost behind him, and asked in doubt.

"Secret weapon? Oh that little ball, huh? But David, what the hell is that?"

David replied without thinking about it.

"A very useful smoke bomb."

In the phagocytic bag he gave Mann, a secret large-scale smoke diffusion device was installed, as well as dozens of one-off self-explosive enhanced Ruhua.

It can be thrown and sprayed, and it can also make the enemy completely lose their sense of direction.

Isn't this a smoke bomb?

As for being able to be like a flower in the army, David doesn't want to reveal this hole card to the Mann team yet.

After all, although the members of Mann's team have cooperated with him, they are obviously not his own people who can be completely trusted by Jack.

Just like Qi Wei, who didn't come to participate in the action this time, this little thing is a determined fighter.

So it is necessary to be cautious about this point.

After this operation is over, he will explain this matter to Mann and the others again.

Then formally bring trustworthy people into their own forces.

But David didn't know what Mann thought, the only thing he knew now was.

The mysterious secret weapon David left him was just a smoke bomb? ? ?

Good guy.

No matter how strong the smoke bomb is, how strong can it be? According to the current situation, they will be blown up within half an hour.

What's the use of a smoke bomb!

However, after David finished giving instructions, he hung up the phone and started to drive at full speed.

So Mann also had to accept the fact at the moment.

"How is it? Is there a way to solve the current situation? I can tell you, at most 10 minutes, or even less time, the big troops will catch up!"

Panan used the snakeskin to get rid of the motorcycle next to the car, and at the same time asked Mann quickly.

Mann couldn't help answering in a slightly embarrassed low voice.

"Uh, David probably won't be here for a while. He made us use the secret weapon he gave us if we couldn't hold on."

Hearing this, Panan's expression was immediately overjoyed.

"Hey! Secret weapon, I like the word! So what kind of secret weapon is it?"

Even the small props that David took out are so easy to use, let alone such a mysterious secret weapon.

From this point of view, this small crisis should also be turned into a breeze.

However, Mann's answer completely froze the smile on her face.

"It's a smoke bomb"

"Fuck! Are you kidding me? Smoke bombs are also called secret weapons? ¥%#@%"

Although after hearing that smoke bombs are the secret weapon, Panan's soul of Zaun has already begun to burn.

But she still accomplished her task brilliantly.

It allowed Mann and his party to last nearly more than 20 minutes in the process of counterattacking, and then they gradually fell into the encirclement of the opponent's large army under the siege of the night ghosts.

"The ammunition has long been gone, only the bullets of the pistol are left."

Dorio looked at the empty combat preparation materials, and couldn't help but sighed slightly.

A dignified atmosphere has quietly swept over everyone's hearts.

Ammunition is almost exhausted right now, and everyone is more or less wounded.

Under such circumstances, falling into the siege of night wandering ghosts is obviously the worst case.

Even those night wandering ghosts who surrounded them have given up their fire suppression jokingly at this moment, but are going to stop them directly and capture them alive.

Falling alive into the hands of these man-eating guys, what the end will be is beyond what they can imagine at the moment.

However, it still takes some time for David to arrive, and their only counterattack seems to be the secret weapon that Panan has ridiculed all the way.

"I can't hold it anymore."

Taking a look at everyone's poor state, Mann wiped away the dried blood on his face and took out the small black ball from his pocket.

It is life or death now, but it all depends on whether the smoke bomb is as powerful as David said.

thought here.

Mann gritted his teeth and leaned his upper body out of the skylight again, and then slammed the "smoke bomb" in his hand at the huge night ghost convoy behind him.

Such a last way of resistance naturally surprised all the night wandering ghosts, but after seeing the thick smoke that instantly expanded and diffused.

A burst of loud laughter instantly resounded in the convoy.

Is it time to throw smoke bombs?
I'm afraid it wasn't that this big man has already scared them out of mental problems, hahahahahahahaha!

However, the laughter obviously didn't last long.

When those nocturnal ghosts noticed that the ever-expanding smoke actually enveloped their surroundings as if they had life.

A strange feeling swept over their bodies.

You must know that they are in a state of high-speed movement now, and the smoke from the smoke bombs cannot have such an effect!
However, it was too late to realize that something was wrong now.

Under such a dense fog that completely covered their sight, the huge convoy instantly became their most fatal weakness.

Vehicles whose routes could not be seen collided crazily, and then further formed a domino effect and collided with countless vehicles behind them.

The sound of impact and vehicle explosion that resounded through the sky echoed in the empty bad land in an instant.

"Use Thermal Imaging!!!"

The roar of the night tour ghost leader echoed in every vehicle shrouded in thick fog.

This prevented further deterioration of the situation.

However, when all of them exhaled, they didn't notice at all that countless strange creations invisible to thermal imaging had been lying on their car windows or doors like ghosts.

next moment.

One by one, Ru Hua, who looked like evil ghosts in the fog, had smashed the car windows and unleashed deadly firepower into the car.

"What is this stuff???"

"Ahhhhh! Ghost!!"

"Damn it, help me!!!"

for a while.

The intensive firing and calls for help instantly echoed in the originally large convoy.

Round after round of vehicles or flowery explosions, like thunder flashing through dark clouds, continuously emerged in the smoke.

under such influence.

Even the encirclement that was strictly guarding against Tingwei had completely disintegrated at this moment.

Let Panan easily drive the Tingwei, rushing out of the smoke and the package range of the night ghost.

After drawing a long distance from the night ghost convoy, Panan finally shifted his gaze to the night ghost convoy behind him, which was nearly two-thirds missing.

Even if she was only watching the show from the outside, she could clearly feel how strange the effect of this so-called secret weapon was.

thought here.

Panan pointed to the incomplete night tour ghost team behind him, and looked at Mann with a strange expression.

"You call this a smoke bomb?"
