Since the advent of cybernetic prosthetics, the safety of such devices has been a persistent problem.
Although every manufacturer that produces cyber plug-ins keeps saying how safe their products are, in fact, the truth is that the devil is always better.
Since smart chips are designed by people, it is natural that someone can crack them, and combat hackers are special combatants with expertise in this area.
Such people will not install too many offensive or defensive plug-ins on themselves, but they will definitely install the best intrusion protocols and scanning chips.
Once they become enemies, they will not rush to use knives or guns.
As long as they seize the opportunity and hack the smart chip in someone's body, the hacker can do whatever they want to that person.
If you turn off the victim's electronic eyes, that person will become blind. If you turn off the other party's communication module, that person will never be able to communicate with anyone.
From the perspective of a real combat hacker, just disrupting the normal functions of a cybernetic body can only be regarded as a small trick. In fact, hackers have more direct means of harm.
High-level hackers can constantly hack into someone's cyber plug-in, and they can also overload smart chips, causing short circuits and ultimately spontaneous combustion.
Peacock heard Dick's father talk about the power of combat hackers more than once. Today he finally saw this level of attack with his own eyes, which impressed him deeply.
"Peacock! Don't worry, I won't die, but I may not be able to help.
Brick, you are such a scumbag! Peacock, help me kick his ass!"
Listening to Jack gasping and yelling, Peacock felt relieved a little.
Jack still had the strength to curse, and it seemed that his injuries were not serious. This way he could concentrate and compete with the high-ranking hacker.
"Jack! Have you ever said that about an old friend?
How about it, are you medium rare now?
If not, it doesn’t matter. I’ll cook your friends first, and then I’ll grill you, a living person!”
Because he heard Jack's voice, the boss of the Whirlpool Gang couldn't help but interrupt.
As he said this, he looked around him and assessed the results of the first round.
Just now, taking advantage of the opportunity to talk to Jack, he used the rapid intrusion protocol to successfully hack Jack's electronic prosthetic eye.
Jack's eyeballs were the most common civilian version, and they couldn't stop Brick at all. So in just one sentence, he had already succeeded.
After taking over the opponent's eye plug-in, Brick first used this node to cause a short circuit. Then he turned off Jack's prosthetic eye.
In this way, Brick didn't even touch Jack, but he had already severely injured him.
Despite the boy's talk of being relaxed, in fact Jack's injury could not be healed by just lying down for a few days, so now he only had one enemy left.
Of course, Brick was not without losses in this first round.
Just now, he personally dealt with Jack, and the other two boys were responsible for dealing with the young boys around Jack.
As a result, he defeated Jack, but his two men failed to complete the task.
In fact, instead of killing their opponents, one of them was killed.
Looking at the bullet hole between the dead man's eyebrows, Brick couldn't help but frown, but he figured it out immediately.
In 2077, anyone can become a sharpshooter.
This process is very simple, you don’t need to practice hard, you just need to have money.
As long as you have enough euros, you can buy electronic eyes that enhance dynamic vision and smart chips that assist aiming.
It only takes an hour at most for the prosthetist to install and debug all these gadgets, and then a brand-new sharpshooter is born.
The more this kind of sharpshooter, the less Brick takes it to heart, because he is the nemesis of this kind of quick sharpshooter.
In the face of Brick's rapid intrusion protocol, all civilian firewalls are cardboard that can be easily broken.
He only had to look at the peacock and the other person would be dead. This was how Jack was laid down.
Of course, in order to get a glimpse of the peacock, Brick needed the cooperation of another horse boy.
During an intrusion scan, he had to keep his target in direct line of sight, so he sent his man to draw Peacock's fire.
"Whoa whoa whoa!"
When the old spider made the gesture, his loyal dog rushed out while yelling.
His mission is to attract the peacock to shoot at him, so that his boss can complete the scan and kill the other party.
The death of his companion just now made him more vigilant. So when he came up, he activated the assist plug-in on his legs and lowered his body as much as possible.
Seeing that there was a bunker to hide in front of them, Brick's men couldn't help but feel happy.
However, at this moment, a .44-caliber bullet passed through all obstacles and accurately shot into his skull.
Looking at the second corpse on the ground, the corners of Brick's eyes twitched unconsciously.
He has seen many auxiliary chips, but this is the first time he has seen one that is so accurate and fast.
What frightened Brick even more was that he didn't actually sweep out any cyber chips on the enemy.
If he hadn't used this trick to severely injure Jack just now, Brick would have suspected that there was something wrong with his hacking software.
"An old bastard who refuses any transformation? This is specially prepared for me!"
After having to accept this reality, the boss of the Uzumaki Gang felt that he had seen the truth.
His hacking skills are of no use against old monsters, but that doesn't mean that Brick is helpless, because he still has some tricks up his sleeve.
After knocking down the second soldier with one shot, Peacock prepared to approach Brick.
As a result, as soon as he showed his head from behind the shelf, a red light shot out.
"Danger!"
As soon as the red light came into view, the peacock raised its head and turned its head.
In the end, he barely escaped the danger of being shot in the head, but the red light still cut off a strand of hair on the peacock's forehead.
Smelling the smell of burnt protein, even though the peacock prides himself on being brave, he didn't dare to get up from lying on the ground for the time being.
"Hey! Jack's lackey, you old bastard over there, you got the guts!
Aren't you a sharpshooter? Do you dare to compete with me to see who is faster, your hands or my laser!"
Although the laser just now missed, Brick got more energy.
He kept shooting lasers from the prosthetic eyes on his face, suppressing the peacock until it could not move.
"I never thought these spider monsters could use their eyes as gunners!"
Only then did Peacock know why the guys from the Uzumaki Gang loved to modify their eyes so much.
The spider monster's prosthetic eye combines detection and attack, making it a powerful weapon for sneak attacks.
The lasers Brick shoots are much faster than bullets, and he can even sustain this high-energy beam for a short period of time, so these lasers can both penetrate and cut.
Of course, even for Brick, only half of his eight prosthetic eyes have weapon functions.
But this is already terrifying. These 4 electronic eyes are equivalent to four laser guns.
Coupled with Brick's pistol, Peacock is equivalent to one shooting five.
There was nothing sturdy in the warehouse at the Dorset food processing plant that could block the laser beam, so soon the peacock was having to jump up and down.
Now he has to keep moving fast at all times, otherwise those lasers will singe his butt off.
"You damn monkey, let's see how long you can hold on!"
While chasing the peacock, Brick cursed angrily.
He could tell that the guy opposite was deliberately delaying the meeting.
Although his laser beam is sharp, it is extremely energy-consuming. With the current energy reserve, Brick can shoot more than twenty rounds at most.
In addition, Brick is still worried about those military technology guys.
These corporate dogs have surrounded the factory for a long time, and now they may find it at any time.
Whenever he thinks about this, Brick becomes more and more anxious.
Just when the boss of the Uzumaki Gang thought of running away, the enemy he was chasing panicked and fled into a corner of the warehouse.
That corner is filled with discarded shelves and is relatively closed. If a peacock escapes there, it is like falling into a trap.
Without any hesitation, Brick immediately chased after those shelves.
"Come out! Stop hiding, I see you."
When Brick shouted this, he wasn't being cryptic.
At this moment, his other prosthetic eyes had captured the thermal signs of a living person, so he knew that the peacock was hiding not far ahead.
"Yeah, I don't think there's any need to hide anymore. Let's decide the winner here."
Contrary to Brick's expectation, Peacock responded immediately. He did not care at all that this would expose his position.
In Brick's view, this is a sign that Peacock wants to break the jar, and Brick certainly welcomes Peacock's doing so.
While Brick was calculating how to strike, Peacock was also preparing for the decisive battle.
Of course he didn't run here because he was panicking. In fact, this was the battlefield he chose. Only here could he defeat Brick's laser.
Opening the prelude wheel, Peacock loaded six bullets with gray primers into it.
That was not an expensive special bullet, it was the most common .44 caliber round nose bullet.
Round-tipped belts do not have as strong a penetrating power as sharp-tipped bullets, nor do they have the special killing effect like flame bullets and electric shock bullets.
In fact, the warhead of this kind of bullet is relatively soft and can easily bounce off hard surfaces, causing ricochet.
For most shooters, ricochet is scary because no one knows where the bullet will fly in the next second.
Few people know that ricochet can actually be controlled manually.
Dad Dick of the Motorcycle Brotherhood is one of the masters, and this is the second trick he taught Peacock.
Before the spider monster could strike, Peacock fired first.
The bullet probably hit a certain shelf, and then flew off somewhere.
Looking at the impact point that was still a hundred and eighty thousand miles away from him, Brick straightened up his waist with a grin and started his first round of volley.
As four red lights shot out, the wooden box between him and the peacock turned into a pile of debris, and he was one step closer to victory.
Before Brick fired his second salvo, Peacock fired two more shots.
As before, all the bullets disappeared, but the peacock seemed to have found a sense.
Just when Brick stuck his butt out and was about to end his grudge with Peacock once and for all, Peacock fired again.
This time he didn't pause and fired the last three bullets in the gun in one breath.
When the round-nose .44 bullets hit the metal shelves, they followed the rules of physics and began to bounce.
Each such impact will make them make a crisp clanking sound, and then they will change direction.
"No way? This is unscientific!"
When Brick found himself surrounded by the tinkling sounds, the old spider finally felt in danger.
Just when he hesitated for a moment, the three bullets rebounded again and then headed straight for him.
"ah!"
Although the multiple rebounds consumed most of the bullet's kinetic energy, the remaining part was enough to tear open Brick's skin and muscles and penetrate into his body.
"This is impossible! This is not true!"
It was obvious that he was only hit on the back and arm which were not fatal, but the will of the leader of the Uzumaki Gang was instantly defeated.
He couldn't imagine that this kind of spear skill existed in the world, and he was even more unwilling to accept that it was just a coincidence.
No matter what, Brick didn't want to face the peacock anymore, so he ran away.
If you try to escape now, it will definitely be too late.
As soon as Brick escaped from the barrier formed by the pile of shelves, the peacock chased after him.
As the peacock jumped and hit him, Brick, who was already staggering, immediately fell down.
Before the old spider could understand, the peacock was already riding on it and pointed its gun at his head.
"You reformers are so disgusting!"
While saying this, Peacock raised his gun and stabbed randomly.
The peacock doesn't care which eye is the laser transmitter, as long as all the old spider's prosthetic eyes are exploded.
