Chapter 226: A mountain of treasures but no door
Ling Luxian had some things left unsaid, including Lucy's life experience and her feud with Arasaka.
Since Lucy didn't plan to tell anyone else, Ling Luxian didn't plan to say anything more and bring up this matter.
When Lucy heard that the dangerous girl was related to Arasaka, she shuddered involuntarily. It was obvious that she was thinking of sad things and brought back the painful past.
Qiwei looks cold but her heart is warm. There are only three people here, and she has been paying attention to the conditions of Ling Luxian and Lucy.
Seeing Lucy's momentary depression, she thought that Lucy must have had a grudge against Arasaka. Moreover, it left her with a big psychological shadow. Qi Wei felt a little guilty for a moment. She shouldn't have come up with this bad idea, which made Lucy think of sad things.
Qiwei did not mention this matter again, and did not let Lucy know that she had noticed her abnormality. This was definitely a taboo topic for Lucy herself.
What she needs now is not comfort, but to let this matter pass until Arasaka is destroyed, or she can let it go.
Qiwei felt bitter. How could they destroy Arasaka? How could they do what the nuclear bomb couldn't do fifty years ago? They could only devote themselves to letting Lucy think it through.
Qiwei immediately changed the subject, "Then let's look for information about Spider Murphy. Anyway, we have the network access warehouse, so it's just a matter of time."
"I agree with Qiwei's opinion. Let's start with Spider Murphy." Ling Luxian expressed his opinion.
Lucy also nodded slightly, agreeing with their opinion.
The three began to search for information about Spider Murphy on the Internet, but they found that most of the information was encrypted or hidden, making the investigation more difficult.
"It seems like someone doesn't want us to find information about Spider Murphy easily." Lucy frowned slightly.
Ling Luxian smiled, already knowing who it was.
Spider Murphy is not dead yet, she just uploaded herself to the Internet. It is not ruled out that she has sealed up all the information related to herself.
But besides her, there was another person.
That is, Ott Cunningham. From her, we can learn that she created a lot of AI to break through the real network and the shrine.
It's mainly the portable shrine. In the real network, there are definitely many Ultramen's ears and eyes.
Now Spider Murphy has also become a roaming AI, which means that she is Ultra's enemy.
As for the enemy, of course we need to collect all the information and strike them in every possible way.
It's hard to say whether Ultra still has some human consciousness left. After all, it was Spider Murphy who uploaded her in separate volumes, which caused her to become like this. Maybe Ultra did this out of revenge.
It is also possible that it was Spider Murphy. As a member of the attack on Arasaka Tower, Arasaka and other companies sealed her information.
In any case, it is extremely difficult to find information about Murphy on the Internet.
"It's okay. This just adds a little more difficulty." Ling Luxian gave the two people confidence with a firm look, "Don't worry. I believe we will find clues."
"That's all for now." Lucy was a little dejected. It was a blessing in disguise, so there was nothing to complain about.
It was just that Lucy was a little unwilling to accept the empty treasure mountain in front of her. But what does it matter if she is unwilling? This is a gift from Ling Luxian to Qiwei. She didn't say anything, and Lucy herself certainly had no objection.
Ling Luxian patted her shoulder and said, "Don't be so unhappy. How about I take you out for a walk? Who knows, we might find it."
When saying this, Ling Luxian looked up at Qiwei. Qiwei waved her hand and made a gesture to chase her away. Ling Luxian immediately understood what she meant.
Ling Luxian scratched his head and felt a little embarrassed. He felt really bad to ask Qiwei to help him pick up girls. Fortunately, Qiwei and Lucy knew each other a long time ago and they were close friends. It would be hard for other people to get along so well.
Sitting in the car, Ling Luxian asked Lucy, "Is there anywhere you want to go?"
Lucy lay back on the seat and murmured, "Let's go somewhere far away from the city."
Lucy was thinking of the intrigues in the city and felt a little annoyed. Another thing was that she wanted to get away from Arasaka as much as possible. Even if it was just a little bit away, it would be good.
Ling Luxian raised an eyebrow, without asking her the reason, he stepped on the accelerator.
The car drove into a small road in the Badlands, and not far ahead was a deserted town.
Lucy looked at the town ahead and said, "I didn't expect there would be such a run-down town outside of Night City."
If Lucy said she had never been here, it would be a lie. She just wanted to chat with Ling Luxian. When Lucy was a child, she traveled all over Europe from Poland to Night City. What kind of scenes had she not seen?
Ling Luxian said: "If they have no food and water, they will naturally move away. Nowadays, there are not many small towns outside Night City, and most of them are wanderers.
In addition, there is also the pot of war. In 2069, Miles launched the unification war, and people outside Night City naturally wanted to run to the safer city. What? Are you interested in exploring this town? "
"Okay." Lucy agreed without hesitation, not even thinking that she might run into some bad guys in such a remote place.
Ling Luxian stopped the car and strolled along the path in the town with Lucy.
Compared to Night City, the air here is relatively fresh. The air in Watson District smells like waste, which is not very pleasant.
It's much better here, but the occasional wind and the dust it raises can be quite annoying.
In fact, this run-down town just happened to arouse Ling Luxian's desire to explore. When he was a child, he watched movies and thought the explorers in the videos were so cool, and he also wanted to be an explorer.
I ran around with other kids of my age and explored various uninhabited houses, some of which were inevitably dilapidated.
I even climbed up the collapsed wall. I was young at the time and vaguely felt that it was three stories high. Children have a high field of vision, so naturally they may not have such a good view.
However, no matter what, when the adults found out, I was beaten up and could barely get out of bed for more than a month. A good summer vacation was gone before I had much fun.
Thinking of this, Ling Luxian burst out laughing. Lucy asked him why he laughed, and Ling Luxian told her about his childhood.
"Hahaha, how come I didn't realize that such a smart person like you was so stupid when you were a child?" Lucy laughed so hard that her body shook.
"Tsk, you don't understand, this is called being adventurous." Ling Lu curled his lips, and then said: "Are you happier now?"
Lucy was stunned. It was true.
Good times don't last long, happy times always pass so easily. In this dilapidated town, a burst of gunfire was heard.
Ling Luxian gritted his teeth at this. No way, you’re going to mess with me at this time?
