"No matter how the gluttonous time devours everything, we must work hard to win our reputation while this breath is still alive, so that the sickle of time cannot harm us." The voice came from the radio, and the anchor's magnetic voice slowly came.
Time flies, the sun and the moon fly by.
The sun was shining brightly outside the window, and the boundless clear sky was rare in the Night City.
The sky is like a blue curtain covered with mist, turning into a dreamy background board reflected on the glass of the floor-to-ceiling windows. The full microwave ripples on the surface of the swimming pool on the outdoor lawn. This gentle warm breeze
It fell into the house through the gap in the window and blew up a photo album on the table.
The half-open photo album flipped through the pages lightly, revealing sealed photos one after another. The characters in the photos were very monotonous, with only a boy and a woman.
The timeline seemed to have been flipped, and the photo album was slowly opened. The boy gradually grew up at a speed visible to the naked eye, but the woman's height remained unchanged.
Until one day, the boy finally became taller than the girl, and his immature face turned into a handsome and sunny look. Although he still looked young, he also matured a lot.
The scenes in the photos are not static. Some are at an amusement park, some are eating in a pub, and there are also photos of boys graduating from elementary school and putting on uniforms at Arasaka Academy.
Eight years have passed since Lin Mo was adopted by Xu Wanxue until now.
Eight years is a long time, enough to change a lot of things.
In order to avoid too many accidents, Lin Mo did not cause any major accidents in the past eight years. Instead, he lived to the age of 16 smoothly according to the life trajectory provided by the simulator.
In the past eight years, many major events have happened on time just like the plot in the game.
Due to many historical reasons, the New American Federation in this world does not have the power to control the states.
In 2069, the new American Federation took office as its new president, Miles. At the end of the year, she proposed a unification plan to expand federal control over the free states.
However, many independent American territories were not satisfied with this. An armed conflict came and the Unification War officially broke out.
Night City chose to stay alone in this conflict, but it still could not avoid being affected. In early 2070, an army stationed in the suburbs outside the city, but due to the emergency measures of Councilor Lucius, the conflict was stopped.
, he invited Arasaka Corporation, which had already recovered from the Fourth Corporate War, to provide protection.
Within a few days, a super aircraft carrier of the Arasaka Company crossed thousands of miles of ocean and arrived at the bay. It arrived in the Night City like an emperor, as if announcing to the world that he would return to the top of the world.
In fact, this was indeed the case. Fearing that Arasaka's intervention would break the finally stable situation and cause the conflict to spread to the world, President Miles quickly signed a peace agreement with the Free State representatives, ending the hostilities between the two parties.
As a result of the incident, Night City became an international free city, independent of any law and management.
However, Arasaka Company's help cannot be free. As a price, Arasaka Company rebuilt its former destroyed headquarters in Night City and laid the foundation on the west coast of America.
At the same time, Arasaka Company's reputation and influence around the world have reached its peak.
...
Unexpected things gradually happened, and some things quietly changed because of Lin Mo's subjective initiative.
Thanks to the help of the simulator, he can conduct a simulated experience for the next day every day.
This ability to peer into the future also allowed Lin Mo to gain a lot of benefits from these events.
For example, stock trading and other things have enriched my own small treasury a lot.
The biggest benefit is that Xu Wanxue's status within Kangtao Company has increased by virtue of her advance prediction of these events.
Lin Mo would not confuse priorities. His current life and development space depended almost entirely on Xu Wanxue. The higher her status, the more benefits she would have as a godbrother.
Even because she inadvertently revealed these "prophetic" analyses, Xu Wanxue doted on him more and more, and their relationship became better and better.
With such a doting sister, Lin Mo would occasionally have this thought:
Ah, the feeling of eating soft rice is so wonderful!
His sister is a high-level person in the company, and she still has a stable job as a researcher. Even if she is living in the chaotic Night City, he can still live a life of wealth and prosperity.
Just work as a mercenary, ask a middleman to do a few errands, and the remuneration you get is not as much as your own monthly pocket money.
He is not the villain of the protagonist V, and there is no need to do dangerous things.
But this kind of thought only stayed in his mind for a moment, and Lin Mo quickly gave up these thoughts.
"The water in this world is very deep. How can you continue to be so decadent? Have you forgotten the various conspiracies that appear in the game? Even if you are a high-level company, one day there may be accidental corpses on the streets!" Living in such a comfortable life
Environment, Lin Mo warned himself crazily like this from time to time.
The calculations and digging holes within the company, various ruthless murderers, mysterious AI, dangerous cyberpsychosis...
Lin Mo will never forget that when playing this game, if the player chooses to start as a company employee, he will encounter an assassination commission sent by his boss.
For more than 40,000 euros, he assassinated his boss's superior, a special operations director, who was considered a big shot in the company.
Although after the game becomes the real world, many things cannot be taken seriously. 40,000 euros are not enough to buy the life of a company executive, but from now on we can also see the fierce fighting between colleagues in the company.
Your own strength is the guarantee to protect everything you have!
Therefore, Lin Mo suddenly woke up one day and began to purchase various training devices and transformed a warehouse at home into his own small world. There were various training equipment inside, as well as combat chips purchased through various channels.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Unfortunately, these little moves of his cannot be hidden from Xu Wanxue's eyes.
Since she didn't want her younger brother to turn into a big muscle tyrant with a head full of muscles, Xu Wanxue directly arranged the schooling process for Lin Mo.
"You stay at home and exercise your muscles every day. Have you been deceived by those people from the Animal Gang? Do you know that those guys with strong limbs and simple minds are obsessed with building muscles. If you become that sick...
...I'm in a hurry with you!" Xu Wanxue said with hatred.
Because it happened that Arasaka Company established an Arasaka Academy in order to expand its influence in the academic circle of Night City, Xu Wanxue also signed up for Lin Mo.
It's not a problem to stay at home all day long.
Although she knew that her younger brother was very talented and had mastered a lot of knowledge since he was a child, so he didn't need to go to school at all, but in order to find something for him to do, Xu Wanxue still made up her mind and forced Lin Mo to do something he didn't want to do for the first time so far.
thing.
Lin Mo had no choice but to pack up his bags and go to school.
However, although her sister's power is irreversible, the step of going to school is indeed within Lin Mo's original plan.
According to the information given by the simulator, he will meet an important person there.
——David Martinez.
This classmate who will be able to leave his drink name in the [Afterlife] bar in the future will definitely experience a legendary life worthy of his drink name at some point in the future.
Lin Mo will never let go of a partner who has the qualifications to become a legend.
The reason why he was stabbed by scavengers in the simulator must be because he was used to being alone when doing tasks.
Since you can't be a lone wolf, if you want to make a name for yourself in this life, you will definitely need to recruit teammates.
