Chapter 16 Mission Begins

While Tony and Steve were speculating about what kind of test they would experience in the cyberpunk world, V and Jack, who had already made a name for themselves in Night City, also came to visit.

"Hey, Tony, Steve! How are you doing recently?" V took the lead in greeting the two of them, while Jack, who had been following her, unceremoniously picked up a can of beer on the table and opened it.

, and poured it into his mouth.

When Steve saw this, he picked up a can of beer on the table and threw it to V. Then he said with a smile: "That's it, you and Jack are very popular recently. I heard that you have made another big deal.

Business?"

"Yeah! That's a really big deal! Come on, man, you don't know, we met people from military technology this time! Their combat mechas are so awesome!" Jack still looked like that.

, heard Steve ask about what they had done before and immediately started to brag.

However, the other three people present were already accustomed to this big guy's personality, and there was nothing wrong with listening to his bragging. Moreover, they did make a big deal and made a splash on the road.

Even V, a guy who is usually very steady, couldn't help but sigh and agreed with Jack: "This time is indeed quite dangerous. If it weren't for the electromagnetic pulse bomb you made for us, Stark, which directly paralyzed the military technology tactical mecha,

I'm afraid Jack and I are going to die there."

"It does sound dangerous, but a military-tech tactical mecha? I've seen that thing. It's basically a big toy. You can use grenades to penetrate their armor head-on. This thing is just for bullying street gangsters.

"Yeah." Tony obviously has great disdain for military technology and doesn't look down on their tactical mechas at all.

But obviously only Tony Stark has this kind of pride and toughness. Neither V nor Jack has yet reached the point where they can ignore the powerful combat equipment of military technology.

So V explained to Tony with a smile: "You can really kill that big guy with a rifle grenade, but you won't be able to sell it for money! And we can only pick up a bunch of garbage instead of getting it for you.

Get a complete tactical mecha."

Hearing V's words, Tony's face suddenly showed a surprised look.

He knows how difficult military-tech tactical mechas are to deal with. Although he claims that he can penetrate the frontal armor of tactical mechas with rifle grenades, it is just like using an anti-tank rocket launcher to penetrate the armor of a tank.

You also need to have the opportunity to shoot tanks with a rocket launcher.

Of course, the tactical mecha cannot match the defense of a tank, but its flexibility is also far better than that of a tank. In addition, military technology also installs an automatic machine gun on it as a close-range firepower, coupled with heavy machine guns and short-barreled recoilless rifles.

Heavy weapons are definitely not something that street gangsters or mercenaries like them can easily handle.

According to Tony's estimation, if a military technology tactical mecha appeared on the street, the major gangs in Night City would not be able to kill it without dozens or hundreds of people being killed.

However, now V and Jack have gotten them a complete one. How can this not surprise Tony?

Even Steve stood up from the sofa and looked at V and Jack with a smile of success on their faces in surprise, and asked them: "How did you do it? And this thing is not available in military technology.

Recycle it? You didn’t leave any trouble, did you?”

Military equipment of this level obviously has locators or other markings and anti-theft means. It is not difficult to kill one, but it is not easy to capture one completely.

One can imagine how much effort V and Jack put in to get this thing.

Especially since they were looking at the military technology's search afterwards to get this thing into trouble, which would incur the full-scale retaliation of military technology if they were not careful.

"Thanks to those gadgets you made for us Stark, which not only disabled the two tactical mechas, but also allowed us to kill those idiots in military technology. Brother, we were able to successfully complete this big deal this time, but thanks to

I picked up those gadgets you made for us." Jack on the side

At this time, he put away his previous boastful self-satisfaction, showed a flattering look and said to Tony: "But we have used a lot, I'm afraid we have to trouble you to help us replenish some supplies, that electromagnetic

Pulse bombs are really useful, can you help me make more?"

Of course, the tactical mechas of military technology are designed to be EMP-proof, but how can the electromagnetic pulse bomb made by Tony Stark be resisted by ordinary protective measures?

Coupled with some other props that V and Jack got from them, it is not so impossible for someone to defeat military technology.

"Those gadgets are easy to talk about. There is a box over there. You can take it when you leave." Tony didn't care much about these things that could be easily obtained, but he was very concerned about the military technology tactical mecha:

"Where's the tactical mecha you got back? Where did you hide it? Can that thing get into the city now?"

Regarding this question, V shrugged regretfully: "Sorry no, we got too many good things this time. Although with the help of a middleman, we got back most of the less eye-catching things, but those two

The big guys were really not easy to deal with, so I looked up my old connections in the Rangers and sent the two big guys to the Adkados family and hid them with them temporarily.

The people of Adkados are trustworthy, and their leader Thor is also a very loyal person. We have helped them with some small favors and established some contacts, so there is no problem in putting things in their camp.

Once the limelight of this period has passed, we can go get those two big babies back."

Listening to V's explanation, both Tony and Steve couldn't help but nodded.

Although they had never met Thor, the leader of Adkados whom V mentioned, their interaction with V still allowed them to understand some of the customs of the wanderers, and they knew that most of these people were very loyal and reliable friends.

There's really no problem with putting things there.

But after talking about this, Jack suddenly became a little nervous and said: "Hey, listen, buddy, V and I have been looking for a big deal in the past two days, but we can't handle it if we are alone, even if we add

T-bugs are not enough, so we need your help."

After saying that, Jack seemed to have remembered something, and added in an excited tone: "And through this business, we can get in touch with the most powerful middleman in Night City, Dexter Deshawn.

It’s related, have you heard of that fat guy? That big golden arm! If you can get in touch with him, it’s a no-brainer!”

"Jack, please stop talking!" V pulled Jack and then said to Tony and Steve: "Hey, brothers, I know Jack always likes to brag, but what he said this time is true.

, Dexter Deshawn, a famous middleman in Night City, approached Jack and I and introduced us to a deal. However, Jack and I can't handle the deal, so we need your help. It will definitely be indispensable after the deal is completed.

I guarantee your share!"

"Dexter Deshawn? That middleman who caused trouble in Night City and ran away? Is he back again?" Steve's stay in Night City during this period was not in vain. Regarding these characters

He had already collected information about his name and information and remembered it in his mind. As soon as v mentioned it, he knew who it was.

V nodded and said affirmatively: "Yes, it's that fat guy. From the looks of it, there shouldn't be any problem with this transaction. He came back to Night City and obviously wants to re-establish his own banner through this transaction."

, so generally it won’t trick us.”

"What kind of big deal is that? You and Jack can't handle it?" Steve was a little curious and sat back on the sofa, looking at V and Jack who were also sitting down, and asked them.

The current V and Jack are not the same as when Steve and Tony first met them. After Tony's strengthening, both the weapons and implants they now have are good goods that can never be bought outside, and Tony also

They tailor-made a bunch of gadgets that look fancy but have absolutely practical functions, making the two of them almost literally armed to the teeth.

As for whether these things are useful or not, seeing how V and Jack can defeat a team from a large company like Military Technology, getting two tactical mechas is enough to show how awesome Tony's technology is.

It is precisely because of this that the number of times V and Jack come to Tony and Steve for help has also been visibly reduced, because they can handle most of the problems themselves without the need to call in outside help.

And even if there is a business that is short of manpower, with their current reputations on the road, they will not be able to find anyone willing to help.

So Steve was very curious about what kind of big deal the two of them needed to find themselves and Tony.

"It was the fat guy who came to us to offer a job. He was going to steal a piece of prototype technology, something belonging to Arasaka." V started to explain to Tony and Steve that in her and Jack's division of labor, this kind of verbal activity was usually done.

They are all hers, and the hands-on work is mainly done by Jack, although V's hands-on ability is not bad.

Hearing the prototype technology, Tony immediately became interested and asked curiously: "What prototype technology is it? I remember Arasaka is a military-industrial complex? Their Mantis knives are very distinctive. You even took a pair for me to give

You changed it, but why didn’t you install it? Did you think it was inconvenient and sold it?

But you are capable of causing trouble, and you just killed the military technology team. Now you are going to steal things from Arasaka? Are you really afraid that the two major companies will join forces to kill you first?"

Although he was suspected of having a bad mouth, there was no doubt that Tony was concerned about V and Jack.

After all, in this age of the world, getting into trouble with top companies like Military Technology and Arasaka is never a pleasant thing.

If you are not careful, you will lose your head.

Especially Arasaka, which is the longest-running super company in the cyberpunk world and is world-famous for its security and military industry.

Its private security business is world-famous for having the strongest and largest security force among all companies. Many companies and individuals hire Arasaka's security forces to provide them with private security services.

Because of this, getting into trouble with Arasaka is more troublesome than getting into trouble with military technology.

But it was precisely because of this that V and Jack felt unable to handle the matter, so they came to Tony and Steve for help.

"It's a chip called Relic. It's different from the one Arasaka has sold now. This is a new product." V took out a brochure and handed it to Tony. It was an advertisement for the Relic chip produced by Arasaka: "General

Relic is just a privately customized advanced AI. Although it can record the user's personality and memory, it is just a toy for wealthy businessmen to commemorate the dead and comfort themselves.

But this is different. According to the information provided by Dexter and his employer, we found that this chip can truly preserve a person's consciousness and upload it in a body with a blank brain, Tony, do you understand what I mean?"

"Of course I understand. This thing is simply a different kind of elixir and door to eternal life! You actually want to steal this? Do you want to be beaten into pieces by those Arasaka security forces? I don't have the equipment to withstand an entire army!"

Tony's expression changed.

Something like the relic chip is undoubtedly the most cutting-edge technology in the world, and it is also the real treasure of the Arasaka Group. If V and Jack want to steal this kind of thing, there is no doubt that it is a real way to seek death.

However, V immediately explained: "It's not as exaggerated as you think. The relic itself is indeed very precious, but it is not in the Arasaka Laboratory that is under heavy protection. Instead, it has been stolen out and is now placed in the Kanbi Building.

, all we have to do is find a way to sneak into the Kanbi Building, get the security system, and then steal it out without anyone noticing."

"It sounds easy to get there, but Kanbi Building..." Tony didn't think this was a difficult thing to do, but he didn't know anything about it when he first arrived in this world: "That was at night.

The best hotel in the city is also Arasaka's property. Have you thought about how you will face the Arasaka security forces in the entire building if the theft fails?"

If it were Tony and Steve themselves, they would be absolutely sure to fight out. After all, whether it is Captain America's shield or Iron Man's steel suit, they are both equipment capable of doing this kind of job.

In addition, the two of them possess extraordinary combat capabilities. As long as they don't fight head-on, it is not too difficult to escape from an entire Arasaka security force.

But this is somewhat difficult for V and Jack. Even if they have the equipment and implants that Tony has upgraded for them, these things are not enough to support them against Arasaka's security forces.
