Starting from Cyberpunk - Chapter 200

c200 Deep into enemy lines

On the roadside, Rico was getting familiar with the new tool, the hydrogen balloon, given by Sarrento, while the other members of the Rebellion Legion were moving materials from the bomb factory.

“Rico? What are you playing with?”

“Oh? Xiao, it’s you. Sarrento just got me some hydrogen balloon tools. Do you want to try it?”

When Rico saw Mo Wen, he suddenly remembered that Mo Wen also had a grappling hook on his arm, so he handed him a hydrogen balloon component.

“Huh? No, this thing doesn’t match my grappling hook device, just keep it for yourself.” As he said that, Mo Wen raised his hand to show his grappling hook device.

Indeed, Rico’s grappling hook device is on the outside of his right wrist, while Mo Wen’s is on the inside of his left wrist, and Mo Wen’s grappling hook uses cyber technology and follows the cyber technology route. Although the work is the same, the internal structure is very different.

Just like Rico’s grappling hook launcher can add hydrogen balloons, ropes and thruster components, Mo Wen’s can’t, but the grappling hooks of both can also be used in close combat and turned into whips, Rico’s can only be a whip, while Mo Wen’s can be accompanied by high voltage current or high temperature heat damage.

Moreover, compared with the grappling hook, Mo Wen’s device is equipped with a longer rope. With the same rope reel volume and weight, Mo Wen carries several times more rope than Rico. Moreover, Mo Wen’s launcher is more powerful and equipped with several high-speed motors and rotors. The force is so great that it can easily penetrate the enemy’s armor at a short distance.

Rico carefully examined the grappling hook launcher on the inside of Mo Wen’s wrist. It is indeed different from his own. It uses a technical route that he doesn’t know. Although he is a little curious, it is obviously not a good choice to pry into other people’s secrets, so Rico can only give up.

“Hey Rico, we are all installed. We can retreat now.” Sarrento ran over from behind and shouted at Rico.

“Oh! Who are you?” As he approached, Sarlunto was a little curious when he saw Mo Wen. After all, Sarlunto only knew Mira and Rico in Abizmo. Mo Wen did not go there, but came directly to the Vasios Bomb Factory.

“Oh, it’s like this, Sarlunto, let me introduce you. This is Xiao. If you know mercenaries, you should have heard of his code name – Ghost Walker. This time, he helped us restart the Vasios Bomb Factory,” said Rico. Just as he turned to introduce Mo Wen, he was suddenly interrupted by Sarlunto.

“Oh! You are the Ghost Walker. I have heard of your name. It is said that you never fail in your missions. You always solve your targets silently, and no one can even see you!”

“Uh, hello Sallento, actually what you said just now is a little inaccurate. Look, I just failed once.”

“What? Oh, it was the operation with Rico. I heard Rico and Mira say that the Yupara weapon used by Espinosa created a thunderstorm. There is nothing we can do about it. It is understandable.”

No, this is exactly incomprehensible.

Mo Wen shook his head in his heart.

In fact, if Mo Wen acted alone, he might have succeeded that time. After all, when the Ghost Walker was at full firepower, nothing could stop Mo Wen.

But, Mo Wen didn’t know the place alone!

And if you want to know the location of all weapon technology research and development, you can only follow Rico, the protagonist.

Mo Wen had thought about finding clues and taking action on his own, but the Internet of this era had not yet developed to that level. A considerable part of the information was still in paper form, and no one knew where these paper materials were? In whose hands were they? This made Mo Wen uncomfortable!

There was no choice but to follow Rico and Mira.

“OK, guys.” Mira also came over: “We should retreat.”

“Ah?”

“The situation here has been known by the Black Hand. It is estimated that the Black Hand will come to attack soon, so we have to evacuate here.”

“Where to evacuate?”

“It’s over there. There will be planes to pick up the large troops and supplies and leave to a safe place, so now we have to drive over quickly.”

“OK.”

“Okay~”

Although Mo Wen did not agree with this retreat, he had no choice. He had the ability to resist the Black Hand, but these people did not. The day before, these people were civilians oppressed by the Black Hand, but now they have become a riotous army with guns. Strictly speaking, they should be a mob at this time, and it is indeed inappropriate to start a direct battle.

“Do I still need to go?”

“If possible, the road will probably not be peaceful. Black Hand will definitely send people to stop the convoy.”

“There will be some on the road, but the main ones should still be at the factory. After all, with the factory, we can continuously manufacture weapons, so I think Black Hand’s main target is still here, and there won’t be so many on the road.”

“In that case, I won’t go. It’s just right for me to go back and have a good rest. Rico, the convoy will be left to you on the road.”

“No problem, it’s just right for the people in the Legion to take this opportunity to gain some experience.”

After discussing the next actions, Mo Wen stayed where he was and watched the others leave in batches. Mira took some people and left from another route. After all, Mira still had to stay at the front to help Rico fight against Black Hand. Rico followed the transport convoy of Sarrento and took another route to the evacuation point.

Looking at the convoy going away, Mo Wen raised his hand and rubbed the back of his head: “Why do I always feel like I forgot something?” There is no way. Although Mo Wen knows the general direction of the plot, after all, so much time has passed, and there are many side quests here, and the specific situation has long been unclear.

“I show here that there is no recent forgotten things on your to-do list.”

“Maybe I remembered it wrong~ I will go back now.”

In fact, Mo Wen did forget one thing!

It is not particularly important, but on the way back, Mo Wen received Rico’s distress signal.

“Xiao, are you convenient now? The support plane has not arrived yet, but the black hand’s people have come first. I am resisting the black hand’s people here. Can you come and help? The firepower of the black hand here is too strong”

“What’s F**K??!”

“Give me the location, I will rush over now!”

After receiving Rico’s distress signal, Mo Wen sent a message to Lucy to explain, and then jumped to the direction of Rico’s current location.

When approaching the evacuation point, Mo Wen saw the overwhelming Black Hand soldiers, attacking the riot army at the evacuation point from the ground and the sky, while Rico was still running back and forth to block the Black Hand soldiers.

“Damn! Look at the traces on the ground, this is a wave of Black Hand soldiers that have been dealt with! Damn! Rico really deserves to be the protagonist. If I didn’t have the plug-in, I would have been beaten into a meat paste with so many people. Rico was able to organize a counterattack and defend for such a long time!”

Without hesitation, he aimed at these Black Hand soldiers at a glance, and then the magazine on the back thruster opened, and countless mini tracking missiles were launched, launching a precise attack on the Black Hand soldiers below…
