A body from a legendary hacker decades ago was hidden in an ordinary freezer. The body is still intact and can even be placed in a garbage dump waiting for someone to arrive...
The most critical thing is the location of the freezer, which is right next to the place where someone "regained life"...
The arrangement of all this was such a coincidence, as if it was God's will.
And the corpse that had been hidden in the freezer for decades carried the legendary hacker's last "legacy". From a certain perspective, it was enough to be called a "miracle."
Recalling the plot in the game, Lin Mo also instantly understood some of his previous confusions.
No wonder he sent Lucy to search for garbage in the garbage dump, but she couldn't find the freezer where Buttermos' body was.
Now listen to what Knight said, is all this arranged by Ye's company behind the scenes?
This freezer is always on their hands!
"Lin Mo, sometimes I admire your wisdom. Even if some things are not explained clearly, you can still see what others are thinking or hear what others are going to say next." Knight praised with a smile:
"What you just said is right. We did find the freezer used by Bartmos from the ruins of the building, and we also found him lying in it... It's just as the current rumors describe, he has already
died."
He's dead... Lin Mo lowered his head and groaned, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Although he had seen Buttermoss lying motionless in the freezer on the screen before while playing related side missions in the game...
But now the game has become reality. Lucy was sent to the garbage dump to find the freezer but to no avail. He also mistakenly thought that Buttermoss might not be dead after all.
Now Knight has made it clear that "Buttmoss is indeed dead."
...A legendary hacker with such a ceiling level that not even Ultra, who turned into AI, could rival him in the hacker field, died so cheaply in a freezer.
In the last days of Bartmos's life, what exactly did he encounter in Arasaka Company's data fortress?
"So when you tell me so much now, do you want to give me this freezer as a gift?"
After coming back from his thoughts, a smile appeared on Lin Mo's lips.
Although he knew what Mr. Blue Eyes meant, he still made an irrelevant joke:
"I'm sorry, I personally don't have much interest in corpses. Although I have killed a lot of people since my 'debut', to be honest, I don't have a hobby of necrophilia... Besides, it's better to leave this one alone.
Decades old mummies.”
"Last point, you can rest assured that the body of Bartmos has been perfectly preserved. It cannot be said to be an old mummy." Knight said with a gentle smile:
"Besides, I think you are pretending to be confused, Lin Mo. I have said so much just now, do you still want me to talk more?"
Lin Mo suppressed his smile, looked at Knight with deep eyes, and said in a deep voice what he wanted to propose: "Do you want to give me the network access warehouse used by Bartmos?"
Since Knight has already talked about this, he doesn't mind telling the answer in advance.
This bequest from Bartmos - the network access capsule taken out of his body.
Even though it has been a long time and the model version of this network access warehouse has not kept up with the times, the value it represents is unquestionable. After all, it was the "weapon" used by Bartmos during his peak period.
In the game, if the player controls the character to follow the "hacker" style and increases the intelligence attribute to the full value, the final skill and expertise will also be unlocked.
——[Ba’s inheritance]
Although this skill and expertise has little connection with the side plot related to Buttermos in the game, if you insist on giving an explanation for this skill and expertise, perhaps it has something to do with the network access warehouse used by Buttermos.
associated.
"Your guess is correct. The network access compartment he used was indeed retained on Bartmos' body. I wonder if you are satisfied with this gift?" Knight asked.
Lin Mo looked seriously at Knight who was driving and asked, "Is this really just a gift?"
Although in the game's plot, there doesn't seem to be anything of high value inside the network access warehouse used by Buttermos.
However, Lin Mo would never easily believe that if the protagonist in the game took up the hacker genre, the terrifying hacking technology of watching who would die would be created out of nothing.
Such a precious gift, even something that represents the "inheritance" of Bartmos himself, is now casually given to him. It is difficult for people not to doubt Knight's intentions.
And listening to Knight's explanation just now, his previous purpose should have been to cultivate a strong enough hacker and then reach a cooperation with him...
However, they now have a preliminary basis for cooperation, and this gift does not seem to be of much use. After all, with his current strength, this network access warehouse is only the "icing on the cake" for him, not a "timely help".
.
Without this network access warehouse, he can still achieve his plan.
"Hey, Lin Mo, are you still worried about our evil intentions?" Knight smiled nonchalantly, looking towards the front of the car, and spoke in a light tone.
"No reward for no merit, let alone such a priceless treasure." Lin Mo said calmly:
"No hacker in the world would refuse this gift, even if it contains a trap planted by Bartmos... But I accept your love for no reason. Let's be honest. How do you want me to repay you in the future?"
"There are indeed traps, but after so many years, no matter how powerful Buttermos's technology is, we have already eliminated all dangers and copied his countermeasures technology by the way." Knight added:
"As for favors, you don't have to worry too much about this. We won't force you to do anything you don't want to do. What's more, the time is not yet ripe, and we can't use your power for the time being."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Has the time not come yet? Can I ask you what time you want and what the opportunity is?" Lin Mo asked bluntly.
In past conversations, he also understood the ultimate goal of Mr. Blue Eyes and the Ye Company he represented, which was simply to build Night City into a true "ideal city."
For this ultimate goal, strong force support is inevitable.
So whether he chooses to contact himself now or chooses to contact V at the end of the game, it is just to achieve the conceived plan.
Could it be that the "opportunity" he was looking forward to was an event like the Arasaka Tower being penetrated by someone in the game?
"Sorry, Lin Mo, it's hard for me to explain this to you, but you can understand the timing I said as a 'rare opportunity'." Knight thought about it seriously, and suddenly thought that the two of them just happened to talk about it.
"Otter".
So he smiled again and said:
"For example, it's like Ultra suddenly chose this time to fight against the hacker department of Arasaka Company, and she attacked the network barrier of Arasaka Tower full of holes. So for us, this is very good.
The time is right, our people can take advantage of this opportunity to sneak into Arasaka Company's intranet and make a fortune."
Lin Mo smiled nonchalantly:
"This sounds very much like a fable from our country, called Waiting for the Rabbit. No wonder you said this morning that Ott's position is not opposed to yours. It seems that you really hope that she will take action."
"Perhaps 'sit back and enjoy the results' is more appropriate to describe it," Knight said with a smile.
"But if you keep waiting like this, the opportunity you are looking forward to will have to wait until the year of the monkey to happen?" Lin Mo asked with a slight sneer.
Knowing the plot of the game, he naturally knew that the opportunity Mr. Blue Eyes was waiting for would come in 2077, that is, next year.
From his point of view, Knight's decision was correct. After all, without his intervention, V might have really ended up in the "sun", and Knight would have waited for the "opportunity" he was looking forward to.
Of course, we do not rule out the possibility that V will reach a "demon" ending, and then the opportunity Knight is waiting for will be nothing more than a false dream.
Due to his own considerations, Lin Mo finally chose to refute Knight's point of view.
Knight's face remained normal and he replied softly: "Those big companies have been entrenched in Night City for so many years. We have waited long enough since the establishment of Ye's Company. There is no problem in waiting a few more years."
"You are an AI, and your concept of time is different from mine. You can afford to wait, but I can't." Lin Mo shook his head and said decisively:
"Instead of wasting time like this, it is better to take the initiative and create the so-called 'opportunity' with your own hands."
Knight calmly turned his head and looked at Lin Mo. Looking at that handsome and resolute face, he smiled lightly and said:
"Compared with those really big companies, Ye's Company, which only has a little influence in places like Night City, is quite small. Even Ultra, who is known as the most powerful entity in the Deep Web, currently has no way
To achieve our goals, what else can we do besides waiting?"
"What your Ye's company can't do doesn't mean I can't do it!" Lin Mo said in an indifferent tone.
As he finished speaking, the car suddenly fell into a strange silence, and some sounds from the car while driving slightly echoed in the car.
While the two of them were talking, Knight had already driven the vehicle into the busy urban area.
The traffic volume on the road gradually increased. Occasionally, the horns of vehicles sounded on the road, and the floating cars passed by in the sky, leaving behind a dazzling tail flame.
Knight still drove the car calmly. After a long time, he smiled softly. He remained silent and stared at the road signs passing by.
They had already arrived in Santo Domingo. If Lin Mo wanted to get off at the studio founded by him, their journey would be over soon.
"I accepted your gift." Lin Mo's words sounded again, loud and clear:
"However, I don't like to owe others, and besides, it's thanks to your help this time... Give me some time, and I will return you a gift in return soon, giving you the opportunity you've been waiting for."
"And when that time comes, I hope you can be prepared. If the plan goes well, all our problems will be solved... It will be a lively enough show."
Knight nodded slightly, with an unchanging smile on his lips: "I never doubt your credibility, I will wait and see."
"By the way, let me ask, can I give this gift of yours to someone else?" Lin Mo seemed to have thought of something and suddenly looked over.
"Do you have a better candidate?" Knight frowned, quite puzzled.
After all, this gift is also a relic of Buttermos, so how can it be given away casually?
If this cooperative operation hadn't allowed him to see Lin Mo's hacking skills, he might not have given the network access warehouse to Lin Mo.
"Well, she is indeed more suitable than me." Lin Mo pretended to be mysterious.
