Chapter 99: Mann's Past 2

"Wait, you're talking too far ahead. Why don't you start from when God created the world?" Ling Luxian interrupted.

As the atmosphere was ruined, Mann glared at Ling Luxian unhappily. "Why are you in such a hurry? Let me explain slowly."

“Hmm~” Mann moistened his throat and continued, “Because my mother is a waitress, my peers look down on me and bully me.”

At this point, Mann's expression became somewhat gloomy.

"I was not well-nourished when I was young, and I was always sickly and beaten by them. So I secretly vowed that I would be stronger than anyone else in the future.

Later, it was indeed true. With my efforts, I became stronger and stronger. When I grew up, I became a bodyguard and the overlord of the underground boxing ring. "

"You know what?" Mann said excitedly, "I once knocked down five New American soldiers in a bar by myself.

That fight completely convinced them, and we became best friends. And, they invited me to join the army, and I agreed.”

"What happened next?" Ling Luxian asked.

"Later..." Mann's eyes sparkled with tears, "Later, in the Unification War, they all died."

"Oh." Ling Luxian sighed and patted Mann's shoulder to comfort him.

Mann took a deep breath, calmed down a little, and then continued: "After that, I stayed on the battlefield and stayed in South America for two years. Now I think it's really fucked up.

Later, I met people from the United Nations Intelligence Agency, and we carried out several missions together." He raised his head and looked into the distance, as if he had returned to the past.

Joint Intelligence Bureau?

Hearing this familiar term, Ling Luxian raised his eyebrows slightly.

Mann looked at Ling Luxian and asked, "Why do you look so weird?"

Ling Luxian waved his hand and replied, "Speaking of the United Intelligence Bureau, I remember a friend named Solomon Reed, but you wouldn't know him even if I told you."

Mann smiled and said, "What a coincidence. I do know Li De. He is the one who carried out the mission with me."

Ling Lu opened his mouth wide and made an O shape.

He couldn't believe that Mann actually knew Reed and had carried out missions with him.

Oh my god, is this really such a coincidence?!

Looking at Ling Luxian's dumbfounded expression, Mann felt so happy.

"Don't disbelieve me, the person who directed me to come to Night City was Li De."

"real or fake?"

"Of course it's true." Seeing Ling Luxian didn't believe him, Mann stood up anxiously. "He was the one who invited me to Night City, just to be a spy. But I didn't like that kind of life, so I refused."

Ling Luxian nodded. It was a good refusal! Otherwise, Mann would be as miserable as Li De, living in poverty every day.

Seeing Ling Luxian nod, Mann thought he believed it, so he continued: "Although I rejected him, I think coming to Night City is indeed a good idea. Therefore, I came to Night City and formed the current team."

"Yeah." Ling Luxian nodded, "So, what does this have to do with your behavior just now?!"

Mann was mad. "Don't you understand what I'm saying?"

Ling Luxian said with a playful smile: "I'm just kidding. You were bullied when you were a child, so you decided to become the strongest person. But now you've been defeated by me, you're devastated, right?"

Mann nodded frustratedly and said, "You're right. When you showed up, I felt like all my efforts over the years were for nothing.

You know, I put on all kinds of prosthetics for strength, and almost turned myself into a cyber-psychopath. I didn't expect that I would be defeated by you so easily today. I can't accept it for a while. "

Ling Luxian looked at Mann with disdain and said, "How can a weak machine compare to a well-trained body? The strength depends on the individual's performance.

Look at Morgan Blackhand, who only has a mechanical arm, and he can fight Adam's heavy hammer evenly with the whole body modification. "

Mann glared back, "Who do you think is Morgan's mastermind?"

Then he looked Ling Luxian up and down and said, "However, I think you have a talent comparable to Morgan Blackhand."

Ling Luxian pointed at himself with his thumb arrogantly, "Just kidding, I'm super brave and a super fighter! I'm much better than Morgan Blackhand."

"Tsk~" Mann gave him a middle finger, "I don't trust you."

"How is it? Do you feel better now?" Ling Luxian said with a grin.

"Much better." Mann sat down. "But you are really strong. I am no match for you."

Ling Luxian smiled and said, "You are not bad at all. If your prosthetic body is modified, it will definitely be more powerful."

Mann shook his head. "After this lesson, I won't modify my body so easily again. Too much prosthetic modification will affect the brain."

"That's right." Ling Luxian nodded in agreement, "Over-reliance on prostheses is not a good thing."

The two were silent for a while, and then Mann said, "I've decided. You will be the one to take part in the boxing match."

"Okay." Ling Luxian agreed, and then realized something, "That's not right, brother. The opponent is a woman, right? Can I really play?"

Mann looked at him with disdain, "You just thought of it now?!"

"Oh no." Ling Luxian touched the back of his head embarrassedly, "Am I not too excited? Lao Wei and I have been learning boxing, and I think we have made some progress, so my hands are itching."

"Oh?" Mann asked, "Old Wei also knows boxing?"

"Of course." Ling Lu said proudly, "Old Wei was a professional boxer back then, and the runner-up in the Night City Heavyweight Boxing Tournament."

"This is... awesome." Mann was speechless. "By the way, do professional boxers make money? The Dolio family..."

Ling Luxian turned his head to look at Mann and asked, "What happened to Dolio?"

"I'll tell you later." Then he stood up, patted Ling Luxian on the shoulder, and said, "Your boxing match is a black boxing match, there is no distinction between women's and men's groups, so you can fight without worry."

After saying that, he walked towards the garage.

Ling Luxian also stood up, patted the loose dirt on his body, and said in a nasty voice: "Fuck, you run away just because you arouse my interest. How ungrateful."

Mann did it on purpose, tricking Ling Luxian. He was so happy that the corner of his mouth was harder to suppress than the killing intent of cheap firepower.

Oh, yes. Speaking of killing, you may not have any idea, so let's put it this way. Rebecca's future big gun is all about killing. Damn, the recoil is so strong that even the gorilla's arms can't suppress it.

Dolio felt relieved when she saw Mann walking in with a smile on his face.

"Are you okay?"

Mann pulled Dolio into his arms, "Yeah, it's okay."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief at this time.

When they saw Ling Luxian come in, everyone burst into roaring laughter.

"What's wrong? What's wrong?" Ling Luxian looked at his own clothes, which were quite decent.

Until Rebecca pointed at his nose.

Ling Luxian wiped it with his hand, and his hand was covered with red.

"Damn it, Mann, you're really harsh! Come here, I'll fight back."
