Sasha bit her lip, but still got into the car decisively. The matter was urgent, and she didn't have much time to hesitate.
"I've sent you the address."
Sasha sent the location she was going to to Ke Ling. Ke Ling glanced at it and saw that it was an apartment building in Little Chinatown.
"It was the reporter I contacted who was attacked; it might have been a company dog."
The car started moving, and Sasha briefly explained the situation to Ke Ling.
It was clear from the sound that it was urgent, so Ke Ling sped up a bit. Luckily, they weren't too far apart.
However, Ke Ling knew in his heart that if that reporter wasn't quick-witted enough, by the time they arrived, they would most likely only be able to collect the body.
After a while, Thrace arrived at the target location. The apartment looked quite peaceful from the outside, not surrounded by layers of guards.
"There's been no news for a while. I hope nothing bad has happened."
Sasha got out of the car and ran towards the apartment building, her eyes gleaming as she began hacking into the building's surveillance system.
Ke Ling followed Sasha, a sense of foreboding creeping over him; he felt like this was a trap.
However, Sasha was cautious enough to immediately hack into the surveillance system, which should have allowed her to discover the problem.
""
Sure enough, Sasha stopped as soon as she entered the building, her face looking rather grim.
"The room's surveillance cameras have been tampered with."
Sasha's words confirmed Ke Ling's idea; now they didn't even need to collect the body, as the company dogs were lying in wait in the reporter's room.
"withdraw?"
Ke Ling suggested the most rational approach: at this point, there's no need to knowingly walk into danger.
The next chapter will be later~
Chapter 97 Breaking out of the siege
"Sniff."
Ke Ling twitched his nose and took a few steps back to the doorway.
"boom!"
Gunshots rang out, and Ke Ling activated the S.A.S ...
"boom!"
With a loud bang, the ground tiles shattered, splattering everywhere, and the bullet left a crater in the ground.
"Grass!"
Ke Ling cursed, "There's a sniper here, damn it. These corporate dogs probably already know they've discovered a problem."
Fortunately, his S.A.S.S.S. had already been completely transformed into flesh and blood; otherwise, that sudden attack might have blown the spot where he was shot to pieces.
Faced with firearms of that power, his subcutaneous armor was probably no different from paper.
Even if his head were smashed open, it wouldn't matter to him, but the problem is that it's still daytime!
"We need to take care of that sniper first if we want to get out."
Ke Ling immediately made a judgment. He wasn't actually that afraid. The fully fleshed-out Sianwistan gave him confidence.
With his speed, coupled with S.S.A.S ...
But Sasha is different; the prosthetics on this girl are clearly more for enhancing her hacking abilities and improving her brain's processing power.
She is fairly agile and has good close-combat skills, but that's not enough for her to move freely in a hail of bullets like Ke Ling.
Ke Ling could hold Sasha, but that would significantly slow him down, greatly increasing the sniper's chances of hitting him, which wasn't very safe.
"Damn it! What happened?!"
The sniper rifle shot made quite a commotion, startling the apartment building's tenants, who all keenly realized that something serious had happened.
When Ke Ling and his group arrived, there were a few innocent bystanders near the apartment building. After the gunshot, the bystanders immediately fled.
For the citizens of Night City, knowing how to escape when danger suddenly strikes is an essential lesson for survival in Night City.
"They're coming down!"
Sasha had already seen what was happening upstairs through the surveillance cameras; the people lying in ambush upstairs had clearly realized they had been discovered.
"People have come from outside too."
Ke Ling had already smelled the odor. Even though everyone outside the apartment building was moving away, someone was rapidly approaching.
This is clearly not some reckless bystander; it can only be a company employee lying in wait outside.
"Looks like we're not leaving today unless we kill them all."
Ke Ling drew the sword from his back. It was a heat-powered samurai sword, black in color with a blade that gleamed with flames, surrounded by rolling waves of heat.
Kenli Group also manufactures samurai swords. As a Japanese company with a long history, samurai swords are their most prized possessions.
This thermal samurai sword is a new product from the Jianli Group. It was priced far beyond Ke Ling's reach, and he has to thank nature for allowing him to use it now.
"Let's go up to the second floor; we can't be caught in a pincer movement here."
Although the situation was critical, Sasha remained calm. Being caught in the middle and unable to advance or retreat was the most unbearable thing.
The second floor is a good floor. If all else fails, they can jump out from other windows. You can't have snipers everywhere, can you?
Ke Ling naturally understood this as well. He left one of his prosthetic eyes at the entrance to provide a view, and then followed Sasha up to the second floor, of course, by the stairs.
As soon as the two stepped off the stairs, several agents came down from the corner. They were dressed in black with no obvious markings, so it was impossible to tell which company they belonged to.
But it's obvious that it's someone from the biotechnology company. After all, Sasha hasn't offended any other companies; she contacted this reporter specifically to target the biotechnology company.
"Bang Bang Bang!!!"
Four agents immediately opened fire, bullets raining down on Ke Ling and Sasha.
"Buzz!"
Ke Ling took a deep breath, activated the S.A.S ...
"Dang Dang Dang!"
He brandished his heat samurai sword, deflecting all the bullets, some even heading directly at the four agents.
The four agents were immediately in a sorry state, but they were also wearing subcutaneous armor, and the bullets that Ke Ling deflected did not penetrate the armor.
"Take care of yourself, Sasha."
Ke Ling gave Sasha a word of advice, and then rushed towards the four agents.
"Pfft!"
The lead agent was beheaded by Ke Ling with a single blow, his face still showing surprise, unable to dodge at all.
His head was still floating in the air, blood splattering everywhere, and Ke Ling's figure continued forward, slashing at the next agent.
"Buzz!"
Faced with the heat samurai sword slashing down from Ke Ling's hand, the agent reacted, his movements suddenly accelerating—it was Krenchikov.
"Pfft!"
Unfortunately, his evasion was in vain, because his Krenchikov quality was not high enough, and his own abilities were far inferior to Ke Ling's.
"Buzz!"
Thanks to the deaths of the first two agents, the latter two agents were able to create distance between S.A.W.S. and Ke Ling and retreat to the stairs.
"As expected of the company's secret agents, they are all well-equipped."
Without stopping, Ke Ling climbed the steps, his sharp blade aimed at his target's throat.
The two men pulled the triggers, their guns spitting fire as they fired at Ke Ling, who was already inches away.
Unfortunately, the gun had barely been fired when Ke Ling's blade was already at his feet.
Both agents were driving the S.A.S ...
There are differences, both in terms of physical strength and ability. The former is easier to overcome, but the latter is much more difficult.
"puff!"
The two agents were impaled together by Ke Ling and pinned to the wall. The heat-generating samurai sword burned their throats, and their flesh melted away like water.
"Zizzizi!"
Ke Ling's vision blurred, then his screen went black instantly; someone had hacked into his prosthetic eye.
Besides the four agents leading the charge, a hacker followed behind. The woman's eyes gleamed, but her expression was one of shock.
She tried to hack into the massive creature in front of her, but found that only the prosthetic eye was working; Sianwistan seemed to be nonexistent, showing no reaction to her puppet.
"Bang bang bang!"
The hacker pulled the trigger, and the pistol fired a bullet at Ke Ling.
"puff!"
Ke Ling lunged forward, slashing out with his blade and severing the hacker's head, which was filled with shock and disbelief.
He still has a third eye that is unaffected, and he also has a prosthetic eye made of flesh and blood that can protrude from his hand.
The ability to restart the prosthetic eye has almost no effect on Ke Ling unless she is in sunlight.
Even under sunlight, Ke Ling's nose could help him pinpoint the location of humans, and the fragrance he emitted was simply too obvious.
"The prosthetic eye has been successfully reactivated."
After the screen went black, the prosthetic eye regained its vision, but Ke Ling did not close her third eye.
In the cyberpunk world, the more eyes you have, the less attractive you are, so Ke Ling usually closes her third eye when she talks to people.
Of course, this is a joke, not a board game. Ke Ling usually closes her third eye only because she's afraid of the sun during the day.
"Bah!"
