Chapter 75 - 74: Delamain’s Commission!
Arthur wanted nothing to do with these blue-eyed people.
He didn't even want to be noticed by them because once they had their eyes on you, you were destined to be used.
Being used by humans was one thing—after all, society thrived on mutual exploitation. Either you used someone, or they used you. That was the way of the world.
But Blue Eyes? They weren't human. They were AI.
And in a war between species, there was no middle ground—only survival or annihilation. AI had no long-term use for humans beyond extracting whatever value they could. Once that was done, they discarded people like broken tools.
In a way, Arthur had to admit that the Voodoo Boys and these AI had a lot in common.
Still, he wasn't about to let himself get involved.
With the bag of stimulants in his hand, he stepped outside, turned right, and hailed a Delamain cab.
As long as you were in Night City, you could book a ride with Delamain online. The most polite and efficient driver in the entire city would take you wherever you needed to go. If you paid enough, he'd probably even drive you straight into Arasaka Tower to assassinate Saburo Arasaka himself.
Arthur placed his gift bag on the seat beside him, leaned against the window, and watched the city blur past.
As usual, Delamain made small talk during the ride.
