Please call me Cyber ​​Demon King

Clearly, even if it was actually the biotechnology company's dog who struck first, Ke Ling was still identified as the criminal.

Look at yourself, you've killed so many people from biotech companies, and you still dare to say you're not a criminal? If you're not a criminal, then who is?

"Breaking news: A cyber-psychopath has attacked Little Chinatown. The cyber-psychopath has fled in a Chevrolet Thrace. Anyone with witnesses is asked to contact the NCPD."

Ke Ling was sitting in his car when he heard the emergency news broadcast on the car radio. He felt he should go to the Chevrolet boss to ask for advertising fees, since it was being reported throughout the city.

However, this so-called citywide manhunt seems more like a show, just empty talk.

Ke Ling drove all the way to the North City Industrial Zone, but didn't see any NCPD police cars at all.

It makes sense, really. The NCPD officers aren't stupid. They knew what was going on as soon as they saw the state of the apartment building. This was no pushover.

With so little money and such shabby equipment, why risk your life? Just put on a show. If you actually find the cyber-psychopath, are you going to arrest him?

There really isn't a single drop left!

Chapter 100: Terrorist Squad

Ke Ling stopped the car. He originally planned to drive directly out of the city, lay low for a while, and come back after the police presence had subsided.

But judging from the NCPD's current stance, it's all bark and no bite; they clearly have no intention of genuinely helping the biotechnology company to apprehend him.

"Then there's no need to leave the city."

Ke Ling got out of the car and began to check it to prevent any tracking devices from being installed. While checking, he kept an eye on the notifications that popped up in the [Extreme System].

[Ding! Experience +550.]

[Ding! Experience points full, level increased to Lv6, current experience.]

[Gain 1 attribute point.]

"Huh? Only 1 attribute point?"

Ke Ling was puzzled for a moment, then realized that it was indeed one skill point for every two levels and one skill optimization point for every three levels.

If we calculate it this way, when you reach Lv7, wouldn't you get one point from each of the three, just like when you were at level 1?

"The experience requirement for upgrading has increased by 200. What does this mean? Is the newbie period over? Is Lv5 the next stage?"

Ke Ling tried to understand it using her years of gaming experience, but she didn't know if gaining experience would become more difficult.

As Ke Ling was thinking, the NCPD sirens suddenly sounded, and he turned his head sharply to look at the sky not far away.

"Damn it! I knew it!"

Ke Ling cursed as several hovercars approached him. In addition to the NCPD markings, the hovercars also had a special skull and crossbones symbol, which was the emblem of the Terrorist Mobile Unit.

"Oh shit!"

Seeing the markings on the hovercar, Ke Ling finally understood why he hadn't seen any NCPD police cars; it turned out he had directly called the Terrorist Mobile Unit!

The Terrorist SWAT team is a special operations force in Night City, specializing in handling cyberpsychosis cases and dangerous incidents that ordinary police cannot handle.

Clearly, Ke Ling, who moved freely among the biotechnology companies and left behind more than a dozen gruesome corpses of agents, has been directly identified by the NCPD as an extremely dangerous cyberpsychotic.

This was beyond the capabilities of ordinary police officers; sending more officers would only result in their deaths. So they directly called in the Terrorist SWAT team for intervention.

"This car has indeed been tampered with."

If Ke Ling didn't detect the physical tracking device, then it's possible that a tracking virus software was implanted in the car's system.

In this day and age, it's impossible to survive without some hacking skills. Without them, you're helpless in this situation.

"Whoosh!"

Several rockets with long tails were launched. Ke Ling activated the Sinweistan and quickly darted out, abandoning the vehicle. At this point, he didn't care about equipment anymore.

"boom!"

Thrace put up a fierce resistance under the bombardment, but eventually exploded with a loud bang; it was not a heavy armored vehicle after all.

The Terrorist Mobile Unit has formidable firepower. Unlike the ordinary NCPD members who receive lower pay, they use the best cybernetic bodies and equipment, and are the Night City security forces' trump card.

Ke Ling rushed into a nearby apartment building. Everything was pitch black in front of him, clearly because his prosthetic eye had been hacked.

The other party also tried to hack into his S.A.W.S ...

Hacker attacks are impossible to defend against. Ke Ling doesn't understand hacking techniques and doesn't have a powerful self-ICE device for protection. However, his bio-engineered body after his flesh and blood are activated is completely different from ordinary bio-engineered bodies. Even if the "hacker god" Bartmos came, he would be helpless.

"You think you can burn my brain? Dream on!"

Ke Ling opened the eyes on his forehead in the apartment building. Although it was already evening, night had not yet fully fallen, and it would be disadvantageous for him to fight outside. He decided to go inside to buy some time.

"My hunting time is after nightfall."

Ke Ling observed the outside world. Several members of the Terrorist Mobile Team had disembarked from the hovercar. They were fully armed and wore special combat devices on their faces. The facial devices even had insect-like secondary eyes that gleamed with a chilling, eerie blue light.

The members of the Terrorist Mobile Unit were unhurried and seemed to be in no hurry at all, as if they had already figured out Ke Ling.

"Four"

Ke Ling narrowed his eyes on his forehead. His prosthetic eye had completely malfunctioned and hadn't been able to be turned on even after trying to restart it for a long time. Ke Ling gave up and started relying entirely on the eyes on his forehead to observe.

Ke Ling was on the second floor. He could smell that the four members of the terrorist mobile unit had entered the building and were heading straight for him without any hesitation. The four guys had a very faint human scent.

The entire apartment building was deathly silent. After seeing the floating vehicles outside, all the residents began to pray to God. They only hoped that they could survive the battle between the terrorist squad and the cyber psychopaths, and that would be enough.

The terrorist squad arrived on the second floor. Ke Ling didn't continue running. He decided to test the mettle of these terrorist squad members. Anyway, those guys couldn't kill him inside this building. There wasn't a ray of sunlight in this building.

"Buzz!"

The S.A.S ...

He brandished his heat-powered katana, unleashing a powerful, meticulously crafted water-surface slash at the first member of the Terrorist Mobile Squad who had rushed out of the stairs.

"Qiang!"

The slash was blocked. The reason why this member of the terrorist mobile unit was the first to rush out was because he was an assault soldier, the kind of assault soldier who carries a kink.

After receiving Ke Ling's slash, the terrorist mobile team assault soldier did not move an inch, his legs firmly planted on the ground. In a simple contest of strength, he was not much inferior to Ke Ling.

The power of technology is terrifying. It's hard to say how much original flesh these terrorist mobile unit assault soldiers still have. Even if they do have flesh, it's probably all artificial muscle, with a density many times that of humans. No wonder Ke Ling couldn't even smell much human scent on them.

"Bang bang bang!"

As the gunshot rang out, Ke Ling immediately retreated. The other members of the Terrorist Mobile Unit were not afraid of being hit by bullets and fired their guns decisively, clearly showing their confidence.

Their weapons were naturally powerful, and Ke Ling didn't want to experience the power of those bullets; his subcutaneous armor might not be able to withstand them.

However, the terrorist mobile unit assault soldier was extremely reckless. He didn't care about the bullet coming from behind and quickly caught up with Ke Ling, slashing at Ke Ling with his power sword.

Clearly, the reason he was so reckless was because his subcutaneous armor was strong enough that he wouldn't be hurt even if he was shot by his own people. That's the capital that allows him to be so reckless.

"Qiang!"

Ke Ling blocked the sword, but the terrorist mobile team assault soldier pressed his advantage, swinging his power sword repeatedly.

This thing is incredibly fast. Even when driving the Sianwaystein, Ke Ling found it astonishingly fast. This is due to the performance difference of the Sianwaystein; the performance difference is significant.

Technology has indeed surpassed others, but there's nothing we can do about it; that's the allure of technology. There's no mystical power involved, but we can use the power of technology to achieve things quickly, stronger, and simpler—it's a power that can be easily replicated.

The same techniques and the same mystical power can lead to completely different results when practiced by different people. Some may become stronger while others may become weaker. However, in the face of technological power, at least a considerable minimum level of combat strength can be guaranteed.

How long can you hold out?

Upon hearing the words of the terrorist mobile unit assault soldier, Ke Ling's lips, which were exposed outside his facial device, curled into a crazed smile. His voice was hoarse, as if his throat had been slashed. This guy looked much more like a cyber madman than Ke Ling.

"I'll play with you for as long as you want, I'm just afraid you won't be able to hold on."

While parrying the slashes, Ke Ling retorted sarcastically. This guy really dared to push his luck. Did he think he could fight a war of attrition? If they were using the same equipment, he would have killed this guy in seconds. There wouldn't be any room for this guy to whine and bark here.

The next chapter will be a little later~

Chapter 101: If you can win, use Ripple; if you can't, use Speed ​​Run.

"Let's see who gives up first!"

The SWAT team assault soldier grinned, his smile maniacal, as he laughed at this little cyber lunatic for daring to speak so arrogantly to him.

He had never lost a battle like this. These cyberpsychotics always thought they were special and had unique advantages, but in reality, they were just frogs in a well.

There have been far too many people like this in Night City who somehow acquired a military-grade Sianwistan and thought they could dominate the city and become its king.

Their fates are often tragic, and most of them don't even make a ripple before quickly turning into shooting stars, failing to even become topics of conversation.

"Qiang Qiang Qiang!"

The sounds of clashing swords rang out continuously as Ke Ling clashed with the terrorist mobile unit assault soldier. The two moved left and right, their fiery katana and crystal-like power sword constantly colliding and sparking.

The other three members of the Terrorist Mobile Unit were simply watching the show from the sidelines.

"Capture this guy alive and take him into our ranks."

One of them spoke up, saying that he thought this cyber psychopath had pretty good abilities and might be able to be recruited into their team.

"I'm afraid that won't work; the biotechnology side wants him dead."

The other one immediately rejected the idea; he was aiming his gun at Ke Ling, ready to fire the fatal bullet at any moment.

"This guy is strange; he has great research value."

The last to speak was the hacker in the four-person team. She hacked Ke Ling's prosthetic eye, directly damaging the system and causing the prosthetic eye to be unable to restart, but all her other attempts went unanswered.

This made her acutely aware that the cyber psychiatrist in front of her was special and had research value; at the very least, she needed to figure out why her operation had failed.

Her network access module is top-of-the-line, and all her auxiliary prosthetics, such as external disks and RAM managers, are state-of-the-art. Even the most skilled cyber hacker could not prevent her puppet from disappearing without a trace.

"Are you sure?"

The member of the terrorist mobile unit who was aiming lowered his gun, looked at the hacker in the team, and confirmed with him.

"of course."

The hacker nodded, speaking with great certainty, because she was very confident in her abilities and knew she couldn't possibly make a mistake.

The guy in front of her had no hacking skills whatsoever. He was completely unresponsive and offered no resistance to her intrusion into his prosthetic eye. She simply went black in both eyes, but she couldn't even touch the chip or the S.A.R.S.S.A.S. chip. This was definitely not normal.

"Delan! Capture him alive!"
