Starting from Cyberpunk - Chapter 211
c211 Thunderbolt 01
“Mira, long time no see.”
After a few days of idleness, Mo Wen received another message from Rico, preparing to carry out an operation codenamed Thunderbolt.
These days, Mo Wen studied history with Harvey and occasionally took close-up photos of Garland. Although it was quite interesting, it was actually rusty.
This time, Thunderbolt was a big operation, and Mo Wen could get the technology of lightning controller by the way, so Mo Wen rushed over immediately after receiving the news.
“Xiao, how have you been these two days?”
“Emmmm, it’s okay, it’s quite interesting, but I’m more used to big scenes.”
“Then today is a big scene, I guarantee you’ll be satisfied!”
“So I’m looking forward to it even more!”
Then, Mo Wen followed Mira inside.
When they walked to an armored vehicle, Rico and Sheldon were talking there.
“Rico~”
Mo Wen greeted from a distance, and then appeared behind Sheldon in a flash.
Rico turned around after hearing the call, but only saw Mira’s figure, and did not notice the owner of the voice. It was not until Sheldon was startled and shouted that they noticed Mo Wen’s figure.
“Hey~ Sheldon, sorry, I’ve been too idle these two days, I couldn’t help it, I was too energetic.” Mo Wen smiled a little embarrassedly.
There was no way. Although these two days were quite interesting, they were still too idle overall. There was no place to vent the excess energy, which led to Mo Wen’s special actions from time to time to vent some of his vigorous energy (don’t ask why Lucy didn’t help, Lucy said she couldn’t stand it and rejected Mo Wen’s request…).
“Hehe, I’m old and can’t keep up with you young people.”
“Emmm, let’s not talk so much. What is the task this time? What do you need me to do? I can’t wait to do a big job!”
“Uh…” Mo Wen’s full of energy made Rico and others a little uncomfortable.
“Let me give you a brief introduction. This operation, codenamed Thunder Barge, is mainly divided into two phases:
In the first phase, Xiao, I need you and Rico to transport the ion coil to the target location. This is our secret weapon to fight against Black Hand’s lightning controller. We need to assemble it there;
In the second phase, after the plasma coil is safely transported to our base, we will start installing it immediately. It will be almost completed by the evening. At this time, we will officially enter the second phase of Thunder Barge. You need to drive the ship into the Black Hand base, use the ion coil to avoid lightning damage, and destroy Black Hand’s lightning controller at the same time.”
“Then, what about me?” Mo Wen looked at the drawings and asked the doubts in his heart.
This ship obviously has no place of its own!
At that time, Rico will definitely drive the ship and be in the cab. Rico can also take charge of the cannon and machine gun at the back by himself. There is even no place for Mo Wen in the cab.
And on the deck, in addition to the added armor and ion coils, there must be someone to control the ion coils. This person should be Sheldon. After all, he proposed the plan, and Sheldon will definitely be the one to operate the subsequent implementation.
Then~what about me?
If I don’t have my own position, what do I do?
“Xiao, you are here as a safety this time. You know, the lightning controller is one of the four secret weapons of the Black Hand. There must be many people guarding it. Our actions along the way cannot be kept secret. The Black Hand will send people to stop us after knowing it, so I need you to stay out of the plan. When there is a need, you can go out on your own.”
“In short, I am just a brick. I can be moved wherever I am needed.”
This arrangement made Mo Wen feel a little uncomfortable.
It is obvious that Mira and the people in the organization still don’t trust Mo Wen, but they need the powerful strength of the Ghost Walker, so they arranged it this way: let Mo Wen do the most work, but he can’t touch the core!
Need and alienated!
So the most troublesome marginal part is given to Mo Wen to be responsible for, first to ensure that the plan is foolproof, and second to ensure that Mo Wen will not touch the core information.
Mo Wen raised his head and swept his eyes over the old man Sheldon, agent Rico, and the organizer Mira.
Sheldon, it shouldn’t be him. This old man doesn’t need to do that. His responsibility and purpose is just to help solve the problem of Black Hand’s lightning controller.
Rico? Probably not. Although Rico is an agent, he doesn’t have so many tricks in dealing with Black Hand. As long as you help him, you are his friend!
Mira? Compared with the other people, Mira’s composition is much more complicated! Although the main purpose is to help Rico eliminate Black Hand and save his uncle at the same time, there are other components in Mira. Now in Solis, all of Rico’s actions are organized by Mira, and Mo Wen has never seen through Mira.
Mo Wen narrowed his eyes slightly and didn’t speak.
Rico on the opposite side spoke first: “Xiao, if you are not satisfied, you can change with me. As long as the plan goes smoothly, I can do it.”
“But Rico, your mobility is not as good as Ghost Walker. If you run back and forth, I’m afraid you will be too late.”
“It doesn’t matter, and with Xiao here, there won’t be any problems.”
Sheldon said he would not participate in this issue.
In fact, there is nothing wrong with Mira’s words. With two combat forces on the field, Mo Wen can completely crush Rico in terms of mobility, lethality, destructive range and so on, so there is no problem at all for him to provide free assistance on the periphery.
However, Mo Wen did not like Mira’s attitude, or the attitude of the organization.
“No, let’s arrange this plan like this.”
After Mo Wen recorded the drawings, he looked at the few people with a playful expression and spoke softly.
Originally, he thought there was no problem in cooperating with Rico, but Mo Wen naively ignored the people behind Rico. Many times, although it seems that the events are led by Rico, in fact, Rico is essentially a mobilized agent.
“Since there is nothing for me here, I will leave first. I will show up if needed.” After saying this, Mo Wen threw down the pen in his hand and turned to leave here.
After all, the performance of the armored vehicle and Rico’s ability are enough to transport the ion coil.
After Mo Wen left, an impromptu meeting began.
“I’ve said this is not good. Now he has a grudge against us!”
“But he is an outsider after all. We can’t let him know too much!”
“But we are partners now, right? And it’s not that he needs us, but that we need him!”
“His origins are unknown, his purpose is unknown, and all the information is a mystery. Such a secretive person cannot be trusted.”
“The weapon in his hand is also unknown, and the equipment on his body…”
“We can only hope that this cooperation can continue. Otherwise, once the Ghost Walker turns to the Black Hand, it will be a disaster for us^”
