Players Invade Cyberpunk

Maybe it's just some random passerby.

A large crowd surged into the garage, startling Mann and the others. Fortunately, the one leading them was Seth, who recognized Mann and the others, and saw Reyes being supported by Dorio, letting out a sigh of relief.

"Boss!"

But Reyes had already lost too much blood and fallen unconscious, unable to respond to his call.

So he arranged for people to escort Reyes to the hospital while looking at Mann and the others

"Why are you here?"

At this time, Qiwei, who hadn't said a word from start to finish, clutched her head, dizzy from being hacked, and said

"Lin sent us here. He guessed Faraday had taken the company's money and wanted to act against him at this crucial moment, so he told us to watch this guy's movements. Just didn't expect his target to be Reyes."

Due to Mann's squad being too close to Lin Miao recently, Faraday foolishly thought of using Qiwei and a Taiping Continent task list to get Mann and others out of the way, hoping to make tonight's actions smoother, with reckoning with Mann and them later.

But Faraday didn't anticipate that the second Qiwei received his message, she spilled the beans to Lucy, and Lin Miao got wind of it.

"Damn Huang Ban..."

Seth gritted his teeth, immediately thinking of the incident when Reyes went to the club that night, sure that it triggered Huang Ban's revenge.

Reyes also knew well what consequences his actions would bring but still went ahead.

He paused, then said to Mann and the others

"By the way, I just got word that hundreds of people are attacking Horizon Bar fiercely right now. Do you want to head over and lend a hand? I have to stay with the boss, so I can't go."

He couldn't possibly rally civilians to rescue a bar. Even though players and this company have a good reputation in Santo Domingo, the situation over there is too intense. The rockets are deafening, probably no one's daring enough to go.

"....."

Mann knew that even if he didn't go, no one would fault him, but he looked at Dorio, then at Pira and Rebecca, finally at Qiwei leaning against the wall lighting a cigarette

"Let's go take a look."

Pira+Rebecca "Yoxia!!! Ikuzo!!!"

The gangs went all out against the players who made their black market dealings impossible, not only were there enough rocket launchers, but even the exoskeletons Lin Miao sold recently were brought over.

It's like shooting themselves in the foot.

The PR team held their guns above their heads, firing blindly out the window, only to have dozens of guns force them back behind cover.

"Damn it! Can you calm down for a second!"

The players trapped inside the bar were extremely frustrated, the rockets outside seemed endless, if it weren't for the entire office being reinforced from its original steel and concrete structure, any other prefab building would have collapsed by now.

Nevertheless, the building was torn to shreds inside and out, rubble and debris everywhere.

The majority of players were in Big Sur and Stone Ridge Mountain, hardly anyone remained in the bar, so facing gangs outnumbering them tens of times over, they barely had any fighting ability. As for the mercenaries willing to help, they were stationed at the studio and warehouse on the side and rear for defense, leaving the most dangerous bar to the players.

Truth Department took a glance through the wall crack at the gang members already at the bar's ground floor, shouting in the channel

"It's not working, we can't fight them with our gear! Red Barrel, how much longer until you get into town to help!"

But even the little town on Stone Ridge Mountain where Red Barrel was stationed had burst into fight, hundreds of Night Wanderers and Chaotic Blade Association surrounded the town from all directions, fighting fiercely

"Can't make it, figure it out yourself, damn it, those idiots are using grenade launchers on us!"

Red Barrel started screaming inexplicably in the channel "Damn it! My damn rebar cage just passed the inspection this morning! NM$! I'm gonna drag all of you down for pile diving today!"

Choppers: "We're on our way back, hang on a bit longer."

Truth Department dusted off their ear but continued to persist, with only a few rifles in hand, they felt hopeless!

Meanwhile, the voice of Manhead sounded in the channel

"Temporary gear updates are done, hurry and grab them, if my studio loses even a piece of wall skin, I'll fight you to the death!"

"What gear?"

Truth Department was clueless, but they had no chance to break away from the front-line defenses.

They could only shout through the channel to A2 and 2B in the mission hall

"Manhead says there's something inside the studio, get in there, grab it, and kill those bastards!"

Upon receiving the orders, the two of them and seven or eight low-level players immediately stowed their guns, starting to retreat in an orderly fashion to the studio behind on the diagonal. The mercenaries guarding there were using experimental heavy machine guns fetched from the studio to suppress the gangs holding shields and exoskeletons with firepower.

The machine guns resembled M2 Brownings, loaded with armor-piercing rounds, even the alloy shields couldn't withstand direct shots, forcing them to face the forefront assault on the bar.

The gangs didn't consider spreading out to surround, but Lin Miao had already set up numerous automated machine cannons and high-strength concrete walls in advance; even a truck couldn't crash through, a few people scaling the walls was courting death, forcing them into a frontal assault.

When A2 and 2B entered the studio, the first thing they saw were the dangerously modified Wanderer and Eureka Raider.

The two mechas were welded in place, their backs open, seemingly awaiting their drivers.

"This...."

Manhead didn't care one way or the other, immediately pushed the two towards the mechas "Quickly, we used the best stuff in them, you must give them hell!"

The "good stuff" she mentioned was, of course, the Huang Ban model D Power Armor remnants recovered from the site of the fire battle

For a fresh-starting small company, even such scrap material was very valuable assets, Lin Miao wouldn't miss out.

"But we haven't used exoskeletons, let the others do it, just give us two guns."

A2 tried to refuse, but Manhead was always stubborn, hands on her hips, said

"They're too low-level, their physique and nerve response speeds don't suffice, you two are the most qualified here now, if you don't go, I'll drive it myself."

2B: "....Let's try it first."

A2: "Sigh...Alright."

Besides the two modified mechas, there were plenty of exoskeletons equipped with electric machine guns, robot door frames fitted with swarm rocket launchers, automated machine guns, and defense modules standing in a line inside the warehouse, waiting for the players to take them into battle.
