Cyberpunk: 2075.

Chapter 495 108. Flat Head

"I owe you a favor, KK."

After receiving treatment from his subordinates who had rejoined him, Brick forced himself to support himself and said to Carl, "I will never forget what happened this time."

"No thanks. I don't have any good feelings towards you guys from the Uzumaki Gang."

Carl glanced at Brick and said, "If we meet on the street later, I will kill you if you are my match."

"Then I have to remember this time too."

Brick gritted his teeth, injected himself with painkillers, and leaned against the wall with his leg and arm broken into two pieces. "I will definitely make our Uzumaki Gang stay away from you in the future. If there's anything I can do to help, just let me know."

"Just don't be crazy and come cause trouble where I can see you."

Carl was well aware of the nature of the Whirlpool Gang. Brick was the boss, but he couldn't completely control the members of the Whirlpool Gang who might go crazy at any time. Just like Royce, he could only restrain certain people at best, but it was always a good thing to reduce encounters with the Whirlpool Gang.

"We rarely go to that little Chinatown where you are."

Brick's face, which was originally pale due to the pain, turned into a numb and itchy feeling as the painkiller was injected, which made him speak more fluently: "Well, is there anything you like? Take whatever you want. This is free. Consider it your reward for saving my life."

"You owe me this, so it turns out you don't mean your life?"

"You killed Royce, which helped me resolve the internal rebellion. This should be counted once, but my life will be paid separately."

The artificial eyes on Brick's face flickered. "I remember that Roger assigned you this mission, and I also remember that you saved my life."

"I don't really understand the thoughts of a psychopath like you."

Carl shook his head. He really had a general impression of the people from the Vortex Gang. However, since he could chat with that bastard Adam Heavy Hammer, there was nothing wrong with him chatting with the Vortex Gang.

If we only consider the mechanical content, Adam's Hammer is much better than the people from the Whirlpool Gang, and so is his level of insanity.

Carl looked around. The place where he and Brick were now was almost the looted warehouse of the Vortex Gang at the Whole Foods factory base. It contained a bunch of things they had looted and were planning to sell or use themselves. There were actually quite a few things in it, but there was no exoskeleton.

Carl originally thought that Royce's exoskeleton was from here, but now he thinks it should be something Royce brought from his own base. However, even here in Brick, they are all military technology goods. Recently, the Vortex Gang has indeed robbed military technology transport vehicles many times.

But speaking of it, the fact that the Vortex Gang robbed the Military Tech transport vehicle was a little secret. If Blanca, who was inside Military Tech, hadn't mentioned this to Carl by chance during a chat, Carl wouldn't have associated this with the Military Tech Centaur exoskeleton that Royce was wearing.

I remember that it seemed that Meredith Stout, Blanca's subordinate whom Carl had met once, was betrayed during this transportation and several batches of goods were lost. If they could not be found, Blanca planned to replace him with a smarter subordinate.

A person who is already a leader of a senior operations department can't even find out who betrayed her one after another. There is no need for a waste like her to continue holding the position.

As for what the people who come up will do to her after she goes down, whether she will sink into the sea or commit suicide, that is not something Blanca considers.

After all, Blanca is not related to Meredith, so there is no need to worry about her.

This was extremely important to Meredith, but to Blanca it was just a casual mention during a conversation, and now the goods in question were right in front of Carl.

Not to mention, there are so many military technology products that it looks like a military technology press conference and exhibition.

"Anti-personnel mines from military technology. Hmm, I remember that this thing doesn't seem to be that easy to use. After it's triggered, it gives people too much time to escape, and its range is just so-so. It's not as good as Kang Tao's smart sensor mines." "It seems like you know a lot about this stuff?"

Brick leaned over there: "Dogtown knows?"

"I went to buy some goods and learned a lot about this through sales. In Dog Town, there are so many weapons brochures, each of which praises its own products to the sky and provides testing services. It really couldn't be better."

As he spoke, Carl noticed a box.

"What is that? It looks pretty thick. Judging from the material, it's made of synthetic fibers and thermosetting plastics. This is the kind of treatment only used for delicate items."

Carl was a little curious about that thing, so he turned his head and asked Brick, who was like a shopping guide.

"That thing?"

Brick glanced at it and said, "It's a small combat robot with a flat head. It's a prototype of the MTOD12 model. It's considered a high-end product."

"Prototype?"

Carl listened in amazement: "If Arasaka knew about this thing, they would probably offer a high price. However, judging by the nature of Arasaka and military technology, their spies may have already submitted the product design drawings, and now they have already made an identical product."

Carl became interested in this thing, so he picked up the box, checked it, and opened it to take a look. He found that the small combat robot "Little Flathead" in the box looked like a spider.

For some reason, it gives me a sense of déjà vu of the terrifying robots in the older game Red Alert.

"Is there any introduction to this thing?"

"Dynamic photothermal camouflage armor, prototype drive device made of titanium alloy fiber, fully integrated connection, and Crow immersive cognitive system. The Crow control unit is developed by us. The neural synchronization effect is guaranteed to satisfy you."

"It sounds like you've modified it, but it's normal for this to be military technology."

Carl was not too surprised why the Vortex Gang would modify this kind of robot. It was a prototype of military technology, and its controller would automatically connect to the military technology system. If it was not modified, it would be a loud announcement to military technology that the lost goods were here. As an old gang, the Vortex Gang would not make such a small mistake.

When Carl saw this thing, he made a decision.

"Since you're going to pay me, I'll take it."

Carl thought that he also had a mechanical bionic dog named Qiuqiu at home, and based on how much the team members liked it, he would definitely like it if he brought a spider robot back.

"I said I owe you, just take it."

Brick shrugged nonchalantly: "Just be careful if the people from Militech come looking for you. They are chasing this batch of goods right now, and they might find you."

"Are you careful about the people from Military Technology coming to your door?"

Carl nodded in response to Brick's kind reminder.

"I'll pay attention."
