Although humanity as a whole is engaged in an hopeless war with a group called players, within humanity, the divisions between superhumans and mortals still exist, and they are only temporarily overshadowed by the greater war.
, but it does not exist.
Three years have passed, and some people have forgotten it. However, the fact is that when Tang Ji first started his journey of revenge, he retaliated as a group of superhumans. As for the players, they are considered latecomers.
Superhuman crimes are already a commonplace topic, but because of the destruction of social order by players, a large number of superhuman crimes were covered up after the war. In urban areas where order still exists, there are also a large number of superhuman criminals who claim to be
He did stupid things because he was controlled by the player's mysterious power.
This kind of rhetoric is politically correct in this era, because when the official government first promoted the war, it did describe players as an evil species that can control human consciousness and bodies. Although in theory they are indeed, they are controlled by the mind.
The person and the body are undoubtedly two concepts.
The former can completely claim that they were only mind-controlled when committing crimes. After experiencing the pleasure of committing crimes, those players left their brains, and their pure and kind selves returned to their true selves.
As for the latter, only a body is left, allowing the player's consciousness to descend.
No matter what era, political correctness is a disgusting but helpless thing. Those rescued former bodies, after a long period of convalescence and care, have been proven to be able to regain some of their behavioral abilities. They are just individuals.
Being deprived of consciousness does not mean that someone has taken away your brain.
Therefore, in theory, the phenomenon claimed by superhuman criminals who claim that they were controlled by players and committed crimes is true.
The FBAS Bureau receives 1,350 complaints about superhuman crimes every day, and they can only handle 10% of them. Of these 10%, only 10% will eventually be convicted and sent to prison.
Central prison.
In other words, currently only one out of every hundred superhuman criminals will receive the punishment they deserve, and their European counterparts, the ECS Bureau, are even less efficient than half.
This phenomenon has seriously affected the pattern of this world war. In some areas of the European Federation, there have even been strange incidents of people fleeing to player-occupied areas in an organized manner to seek life. Everyone knows that players’ demand for superhuman beings is endless.
Endless.
In the words of those who escaped, since both the left and right are being bullied by superhumans, they should at least know how to die in the player-occupied areas, and the players should at least act aboveboard, and they don't have to pay taxes.
This is undoubtedly a mockery of the European Federation and the Ark organization, that is, players are indifferent to what the indigenous people say and do every day, otherwise this incident alone can bring down the dignity of the entire European Federation.
Under this situation, Ding Yue was temporarily assigned to the European Federal ECS Bureau as the Director of the Rapid Response Office. He can select all the personnel at will and use all the materials at will. His only task is to reduce the vicious crimes of superhuman beings within the European Federation.
Rate.
Ding Yue, who looked confused, went from a business trip to a resident in the European Federation, and his official position was raised several levels. The ECS Bureau is an independent, newly established department. Its internal hierarchy is not so strict, and it is deeply loved by the Ark Organization.
Influenced by the fact that half of its top management are part-time members of the Ark Organization, there is no resistance to Ding Yue's sudden rise to power.
After all, most members of the ECS Bureau have heard that the new director of the Quick Response Office is Tang Ji's student. They have similar abilities and similar personalities.
The main impression that Tang Ji left on the people of the European Federation starts with the Battle of Paris. Before the Battle of Paris, Tang Ji was wanted by the European Federation for a long time, although no one has mentioned it anymore.
It's true, but generally speaking, Tang Ji's reputation in the European Federation is not very positive.
Ding Yue's own wishes are actually not that important. Although he is still obsessed with his happy life in Night City, as he is gradually exposed to the dark side of the world and gradually understands the players, he has become very clear about it.
, no one can stay out of it.
So Ding Yue took his simple personal belongings and took office, and showed up at his ECS Bureau Rapid Response Office in London.
The reason why it is London is because a certain prince named Charles or Louis purchased a Greedy Blood potion with the ability of a dimensional gate through the black market in the early years, and used it on his captain of the bodyguard.
The captain of the guard who was forced to become a super human became the only known super human on the aboriginal side who has publicly revealed his identity and has mastered the ability of the dimensional gate. Because Tang Ji's identity and status are too special,
Except for Mikkelsen, almost no one dared to ask him for help, while Wang Zhengdao was simply busy. Not only did he have to manage the Ark organization, he also shouldered the stressful space transfer task.
Wang Zhengdao spends an average of two hours a day to carry out cross-regional transfers of important figures from regional forces such as the Coalition, the European Federation, the Federation, and even the African Union and the Taha Gang. There are some things that you can survive as long as you experience them once.
I couldn't stop being tortured the first time.
Space jumping is such a convenient method of movement that it completely changed mankind's understanding of space. When Wang Zhengdao was unable to meet the needs of these high-level officials, the captain of the guard became his second choice.
Because their job is to meet the safety and travel needs of the Eagle Kingdom royal family, many high-level figures who travel outside the European Union often choose to take a detour to visit London to visit the Eagle Kingdom royal family, and then borrow the nickname "Crossroads"
'The captain of the bodyguard.
The captain of the guard, nicknamed Crossroads, uses his dimensional gate ability five to eight times a day on average to transport important people from all over the world to different areas.
But now, the royal family of Eagle Country, who could no longer bear the harassment due to Captain Crossroads, could no longer tolerate this sudden diplomatic traffic, so they relieved Captain Crossroads of his duties and transferred him to the Rapid Response Office of the London Branch of the ECS Bureau.
Of course, the establishment of Captain Crossroads still belongs to the Yinglun royal family. Unless permitted by the royal family, Captain Crossroads is not allowed to leave London. He needs to respond to the royal family's needs for space jumping capabilities at any time.
In addition, Captain Crossroads can arrange his own working hours to cooperate with the responsibilities of the Rapid Response Office to reduce the occurrence of vicious superhuman incidents across the European Federation.
These are the official statements from the royal family, but in fact Captain Crossroads has long been fed up with the royal family members going through the dimensional gate to secretly meet their mistresses, and these people ask him to keep it a secret every time.
"Sir, I am Gerard Langel, a first-class royal guard who has served for twelve years!" Gerard Langel walked into the London branch of the ECS Bureau wearing a military uniform. His hair was meticulously combed. He was used to it.
In this kind of neatly dressed life, I would devote an hour every day to taking care of my appearance.
But the 'ordinary people' in the ECS Bureau were obviously not used to such a toy soldier. They watched the toy soldier walking into Ding Yue's office step by step as if he were a freak, and then loudly and loudly walked into Ding Yue's office.
A voice that could be heard outside the door introduced himself loudly.
Several awakened people who were shining brightly in their respective positions not long ago suddenly burst into laughter: "We have a tin soldier chess piece here."
But Gerard Langel himself doesn't think there is anything wrong. He is used to this kind of life and has no desire to change. By chance, he is now regarded as a strategic weapon and can display his talents no matter where he works.
value.
Ding Yue motioned for Genard to sit down, and then asked: "Do you know what the main tasks of our department are?"
"We are mainly responsible for the investigation and handling of vicious superhuman crimes!" Genard Langel stood up again, saluted Ding Yue and said: "I am very happy to work here sir!"
Ding Yue felt like his head was hurting. Mikkelsen had told him before that there were dedicated people responsible for the investigation. They were mainly responsible for the second half of the investigation. To be more specific, they were doing dirty work.
The main task of the rapid response office is to appear in time after obtaining the detailed location of the target. When it is time to arrest and arrest, it is necessary to shoot and kill. Based on the current war situation, this kind of superhuman who fishes in troubled waters will not be able to fish in troubled waters unless he has very special abilities and extremely high
Save value, or choose to cooperate with Ding Yue's warning at the first time, otherwise Ding Yue can only regret that it is difficult for them to have a chance of being arrested.
Looking at the energetic Gerard Langel, Ding Yue could only hope that he could quickly adapt to the rhythm of this department. What they did was not the work of law enforcers, they were the work of executioners.
"Okay, this is the list just passed over. You don't need to read the specific content carefully. Just look at the address column. I'll give you fifteen minutes to sort out the order according to the limitations of your ability. We need to solve at least one problem this morning.
Fifteen people." Ding Yue took out a thick stack of files from the drawer, threw it on the table, and started counting.
As a royal guard, Gerard Langel's personal qualities are naturally excellent, and because he has opened doors to dignitaries from various countries all year round, he also has a very high spatial awareness of the entire European Federation. It only took him three minutes to answer Ding Yue's request.
The fifteen locations are arranged in order to make a suitable list.
Ding Yue was very satisfied with the efficiency of Gendrangel. He stood up and took out a light body armor from his closet to symbolically protect himself. In the other hand, he took out an iron shotgun.
gun.
This is the favorite weapon of the working people at the bottom of Night City. Not only is it powerful and of high quality, but when it runs out of bullets, as its name suggests, it can be used directly as an iron rod, directly beating people into concussions.
"I like your dressing style very much, keep it up." Ding Yue smiled and patted Gendrangel on the shoulder, completely unaware that every move he made was very similar to Tangji.
In Night City, Barros personally supervised the work and watched as members of the Storm Bear Gang wore construction exoskeletons and drove heavy construction machinery to raze the wasteland town called Windmill Town outside the city to the ground.
Through the assistance of Anthony Hopkins, Burrows obtained the geological prospecting data left behind by Night City where it was founded. The location of this small town, now called Windmill Town, is the most suitable address within fifty kilometers around Night City.
A place for building underground embedded shelters.
Although the town's law enforcer who participated in the corporate war is a tough guy, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Although the Bear Gang led by Burrows has begun to decline, it can't be put alone in the hands of such small town residents.
There is still a huge monster in front of them, which can kill these small town residents with money alone.
Because Anthony, the old military doctor, kept a close eye on him, Barros didn't want to cause any unexpected incidents to cause trouble for him. These days, all gangs that cannot adapt to Tang Ji's moral values have been eliminated by Night City.
Back then, Valentino helped a black-hearted doctor who smuggled human organs. How much good deeds did the whole gang do and how much money did they donate every year to turn the story around? But Barros knew it very well. For a long time
At that time, the crime rate in Heywood District was so low that it could almost be said that the houses were open at night.
Could it be that Scimitar and the others like this kind of life where everyone in the gang abides by the rules and doesn't go too far? Of course not, they are just worried that they will be swept away by Tang Ji.
Therefore, Barros's goal in this contracted project was to ensure quality and quantity from the very beginning, because this was not only a turnaround for the Bad Bear Gang, but also one of their escape routes.
When one person says the end of the world is coming, that's psychosis, and ten people say it's probably mass psychosis, but if most people have a pessimistic view of the future, you'd better start digging a cellar right away.
Barros planned to dig thirty meters down and then secretly dig a few meters deeper to leave himself a layer of hidden space. If you want to play, you can play big. The people above can enter with tickets, and the Bear Gang below will recharge their batteries.
.
But that bastard Anthony kept adding items as Party A, which made Barros miserable. His profits were shrinking. For example, today, Anthony arrived temporarily on a rotorcraft and brought a brand new design plan. In accordance with the special requirements of the federal government,
Barros had to build a large medical center outside the scope of the contract, and they even thoughtfully prepared construction drawings in advance.
"Why build this kind of thing? We need more cabins!" Barros couldn't bear it anymore and asked Anthony.
"Are you sure you really want to know the reason?" Anthony looked at the victim in front of him with a serious expression. If Barros and the Bear Gang hadn't stepped forward, the Night City City Hall would have had to spend its own money under the pressure of the federal government.
A large shelter has been built.
As for the large medical center, it is just a cover. It is actually a clone production line of Mikkelsen.
