Chapter 127 10. The great journey of the prostitute king begins now! 【910】
"That guy didn't lie to you. The internal system of this 'Fenrir' super power armor is indeed bound to DNA and has been completely locked."
After an hour of busy work, Ms. Judy, a technology engineer from Night City, opened the door tiredly, wiped off the oil stains on her face, and said to Mason who came to invite her to the trading party that started in the castle with a tired face. :
"It's a physical lock at the hardware level, and I can't unlock it. Moreover, this armor uses some very strange alien technology, and there is no way to restart it through conventional methods."
"It doesn't matter."
Mason nodded.
Although a little disappointed, this result is reasonable.
If the things made by the master himself were so easy to crack, the legend of Batman would have ended long ago, not to mention that this thing is his countermeasure against all members of the Justice League.
Its technical barriers will only be higher and more secretive.
He looked up and down Judy, who had obviously not rested, and said:
"Go and wash up, my team members are waiting for your guide."
"Don't worry."
Judy snorted and said while wiping the oil on her face:
"I can't untie it, but I didn't say I couldn't help you, give me two more days, and I will give you back a super power armor that can be driven by you when you leave Starsburg. "
"Um?"
Mason raised his brows in surprise, and couldn't figure out what Judy meant for a while. The tech engineer grinned and turned sideways so Mason could see the oddly shaped objects that had been dismantled from the workbench behind her.
Under Mason's stunned gaze, the engineer lady from Night City gave Mason a thumbs up and said:
"I can't untie it, but I can replace it entirely! I have already applied to the captain for a set of the most advanced power armor control module left by Kangtao's laboratory to replace this strangely programmed Bat manipulation system.
Of course, this is basically a technological upgrade, so the weapon system and power system inside your armor must also be modified accordingly. I am not familiar with this aspect.
But I can give you a makeover suggestion. "
Judy looked up and down at the surprised Mason, and said:
"You are also an engineer who can twist a quasar pistol. As long as you spend a little time, I think this will not trouble you. But the most troublesome thing now is that your super power armor needs to be redesigned and the energy system needs to be replaced.
To put it simply, because I changed the design, I had to reroute the internal wiring.
The cunning guy who designed this thing locked the control system and power system together. I can help you replace its 'mechanical brain', but you have to find another powerful enough 'mechanical heart' for it.
Maybe you can get what you want at a trade fair later. "
Judy, whose real age is unknown but dressed as a young man, grinned and yawned again, preparing to wash up and attend the trade fair.
Mason handed her a bottle of refreshment and motioned her to drink it.
The tech girl looked at the strangely colored thing in her hand suspiciously, as if recalling some bad memories.
She said to Mason with a vigilant look:
"There's no weird stuff added to this thing, is it? I warn you, I don't like men near me! And you're too young, Mason.
Although you speak and act old-fashioned, but your face is just 18 years old, right? "
"Do you people in Night City talk so much?"
Mason scolded and stepped forward to inspect the internal structure of the Fenrir armor that Judy disassembled with ultra-precision machine tools. Behind him, the technological girl Judy hesitated and drank the potion in her hand.
A few seconds later, she watched in amazement at her body, which was full of energy again, as if the exhaustion from staying up late for the past few days had been swept away.
It's more useful than the shock plug and whip prosthesis for company dogs.
"Go and change clothes."
Mason said without looking back:
"Barbara is waiting for you with another lady who is going to introduce you to her big sister and dress up if I were you."
"Your potion is much more powerful than other people's."
Judy exclaimed:
"How did you do it? You are obviously a rookie who just entered the industry, but the drugs are more powerful than those C-level veterans who boast that they are master alchemists."
"I'm actually what you call a C-level veteran, and I think I may be quite talented in this area."
Mason urged a few more times.
Judy pursed her lips and went to the bathroom, and walked out within a few minutes. She just added a black leather jacket with golden chains on top of her vest and changed into a pair of high-top boots, and she was done.
While holding a mirror to apply lip gloss to herself, she followed Mason out of the room, pouted and said:
"Is there anything to be proud of for a mere C-level person? I was a support member who never went to the battlefield in the afterlife team, but I was a C-level person more than a year ago.
The captains have all started the process of being promoted to the A-level council of twelve.
Don't underestimate us, Mason.
Although the Afterlife Squad takes the elite route, with a small number of people and no fixed vassal world, we are very famous pioneers in the Stars Club. "
"I'm more curious about who your captain is?"
Mason walked ahead, adjusting his hat while saying:
"The famous V? Or 'Black Hand' Morgan? It can't be Johnny Silverhand, right? That guy is already dead. By the way, is V's cyberpsychotic symptoms better?"
"You really know a lot about us, but we don't know anything about you."
Judy chewed gum, put his hands in his leather pockets, and whispered:
“This way of making friends makes people feel very insecure.”
"We have a common enemy, and that is enough to warrant friendship."
Mason smiled.
Turned the corner ahead and saw the members of Team K waiting there.
In addition to Barbara and the second barrel that Judy has seen, there are also Zha Kang who is holding the grimoire and puffing at the window, and Lady Selena who is wearing tights.
Especially Mrs. Catwoman.
When she saw this mature lady who was both elegant and wild, Judy's eyes suddenly turned into shining stars.
Compared with this walking "hormone poison", the sunny and lovely Barbara has become a little girl.
"That sister!"
Judy pulled La Mason's sleeve and whispered:
"Please be sure to introduce me!"
"Hey, stop the saliva."
Mason whispered to his new friend:
"If someone has a husband, they have children, even though they are only adopted children."
"Wouldn't that be better ahem, I mean, what does that matter?"
Judy shook her cool long hair solemnly, and said seriously:
"I have finished my wanton and free youth in Night City, now I just want to get some spiritual warmth, don't worry.
I won't ruin their lives.
I promise! "
"No, I'm not worried about Selena, I'm worried about you."
Mason also emphasized:
"Stay away from that dangerous cat, you can't play with her."
Although the captain of the K team gave enough reminders, in the next ten minutes, Judy still ignorantly fell into the claws of the smiling catwoman like a little mouse who took the initiative to deliver to the door.
When the group arrived at the trade fair on the second floor of the castle, little friend Judy, who was fascinated by Catwoman's charm, had already said everything that should be said and should not be said.
This meeting is crying in Selena's warm embrace that her world is over and she has nowhere to go.
The kind-hearted Barbara was still helping and comforting, and the feeling of being hugged and comforted by two girls in tights with their own styles made XP's abnormal tech girl feel like she was ascended to heaven.
While watching this scene, the three men beside him looked at each other in blank dismay.
Jackson had a cigarette in his mouth and didn't light it.
He watched Judy, induced by Selena's soft words, even began to tell the first love story of the neon girlfriend who betrayed him.
This made the black magician shudder and complain to Mason in a low voice:
"You must have given Selena something to drink. This woman is simply a 'witch'! Why can she make out words so easily?"
Mason exchanged glances with Selena cryptically.
Master Catwoman made a gesture of "Leave everything to me", and then the young man dragged Zha Kang and Er Tong to the crowded hall in front of him.
He said quietly:
"I just gave Judy a pick-me-up potion, maybe 'accidentally' added a few drops of Veritaserum, that's all. Tell me what you got this afternoon, John.
About the 'Amaterasu' team. "
"We found information about them from there when we registered with the mercenary union in Fort Stars."
Zha Kang sized up the various areas of the apparently expanded luxury hall in front of him, and his eyes swept over the female pioneers who were dressed in different styles.
"Their captain is a C-level personnel like you, but they have carried out seven reward missions in the past six months. They have a lot of momentum but also a lot of damage, so they have been recruiting players.
It is said that it is because they are striving to become the spellcaster team directly under the master of logistics, Your Excellency the Warlock.
I invited a lone ranger who was said to have had a feud with the Amaterasu team to have a few drinks. She told me that those guys are allies with two other C-level teams with some background, and they are all grouped by spellcasters.
This kind of thing seems to be very common in the stars. "
"No useful information, John."
Mason sighed and said:
"Did your lethality against lonely women decrease?"
"Uh, it's hard to say."
Jackson shrugged and said:
"The specific situation depends on whether I can 'convince' the charming lone ranger lady tonight to tell us more, well, I have to leave in another twenty minutes."
"this is for you."
Hearing this, Mason took out a small can of medicine from his luggage and stuffed it into Zhakang's hand, exhorting:
"Drink it five minutes before doing business. Don't drink too much in one sip. It's best to ask about their team configuration, the specific location and station number in this castle, and so on.
The more detailed the better. "
"What the **** are you doing?"
Zha Kang felt that his man Xiongfeng might not need this kind of entertainment item, but after thinking about it, he put it away and asked with squinted eyes.
He feels that Mason, who occasionally thinks wildly, might do some dangerous "big things".
Mason didn't answer.
He bid farewell to Zha Kang and Er Tong, and let them move freely, while he was attracted by the things placed on a platform not far away. It was a tall figure in medieval armor standing alone behind the counter, flipping through a small book.
It seems to be the owner of this booth.
His armor style feels very familiar to Mason.
Mason guessed that the armor should be empty, and I don't know if this guy has a short alchemist brother with cool hair.
"How do you sell this thing?"
The young man looked at the fist-sized disc-shaped engineering object in the showcase in front of him, and said to the shopkeeper:
"Can I touch it?"
"certainly."
A crisp voice sounded from the armor, like a young man's voice, saying with a welcoming reminder:
"But this is very expensive, if it is broken, you will have to pay for it."
"I am also an alchemist, I understand."
Mason smiled, and reached out to hold the thing in front of him.
When he heard that he called himself an alchemist, the armored man suddenly made a suspicious nasal sound, but Mason didn't explain much. He looked at the very familiar Type A logo on it.
After a few seconds, the information tab pops up:
Stark Industries Miniature Ark Reactor Rescue Aircraft Exclusive Model
Quality: Legendary Engineering Creation · Perfect Craftsmanship
Item effect:
After it is turned on, it can provide huge energy for the special rescue body of the Mark series armor. It can be regarded as an "inexhaustible" power source when the atomic energy battery refined from unknown elements is replenished on time.
Perfect fit for all currently known mechanical items.
The reactor is safe and reliable without any pollution, and the peripheral safety frame can resist huge impact at close range.
Producer: Tony Stark
Item Description: Aren't you looking for the "Mechanical Heart"? What are you still hesitating about? Empty the last big kid in your pocket and buy it with a lot of money.
Hint: Insufficient engineering skills, unable to analyze the blueprint of this item.
"White prostitution failed!"
A depressing thought jumped into Mason's mind.
He shook his head regretfully, and returned the reactor in his hand to the owner of the knight shop, without even asking for a price, no need to ask, he must not be able to afford it.
Unless he is willing to trade the fragments of the Philosopher's Stone or the blood of the unicorn in his hand, but that is obviously impossible.
"Is this thing Vibranium?"
Mason pointed to another gadget in the showcase that exuded light blue light and asked, the owner of the knight shop was not too annoying, and explained like a robot:
"90% pure vibrating gold raw ore requires special equipment to shape it into shape. Once it is formed, it cannot be modified. Now this small shop is holding an event. Buying 100 grams of vibrating gold will give you five grams of Ulu gold as a gift. Do guests think about it?"
"I don't really understand the price of trading items."
Mason took out a bottle of cursed unicorn blood from his luggage and handed it over, saying:
"How should the two be exchanged?"
"Well, this looks like a very high-grade alchemy material, please wait a moment."
The strange figure in armor took the crystal bottle from Mason's hand.
Under the strange eyes of the young man, he took out a Nokia magic phone and dialed a number, and soon a young man with long blond hair and a red cloak ran over drunk.
He glanced at Mason, then pulled out a microscope-like object that looked like it was being appraised by an expert.
After a few minutes, the guy shook his head and said to Mason:
"If it is pure unicorn blood, it must be worth a lot, but yours is taken out violently and polluted, so the price is not so high.
One hundred grams of vibrating gold would get ten bottles of this blood. "
"Okay, deal."
Mason does not bargain.
With a heroic wave of his hand, he put out nine bottles of unicorn blood, and exchanged from this shopkeeper for the vibrating gold raw ore fixed in a special container and the Uru gold ingot the size of a fingernail as a bonus.
Of course, Mason’s boldness comes at a price. He put away the transaction and asked in a low voice:
"Can you tell me where these things come from?"
"A monster named Hulk returned from aliens and brought people to mess up the base world where our two brothers stayed. There was almost blood flowing there, and the superheroes were fighting.
That's the whole story. "
The valuation guy lay on the counter drunkenly, and said a little boringly:
"But it's just the last profit, the world that has been smashed into a pot of porridge is hopeless. Speaking of which, my brother said that you also call yourself an alchemist?
With unicorn blood in his hand, it seems that he has a background.
I have one more good thing here. "
This seemingly lazy young man took out half a tube of blue serum from his pocket and threw it to Mason, saying:
"I picked it up on the battlefield, you can see the price. Alas, the 'shock' of the **** is coming again, if you are unlucky, you have to start from scratch.
We all have to prepare a little bit more for this, right? man. "
"Well, that's true."
Mason didn't even know what "shock" was, but he still responded casually while checking the damaged serum in his hand. He felt that this thing looked familiar, and it was as he expected when the label popped up:
Super Soldier Serum 【Remake】
Quality: Epic Alchemy Item · Perfect Craft
Item effect: After the special injection procedure is completed, the physical fitness of the injector is greatly strengthened, making it break the physiological limit of humanoid creatures.
The disadvantage is that it will limit the user's inner desire.
Plainly speaking, the better the better, the worse the bad.
Producer: Howard Stark
Item Description: The effect of the remake and the original version is only 100,000,000 points.
Hint: Drawing analysis is in progress. [Photographic Memory] The talent is activated, and the analysis speed is greatly improved.
"White prostitution succeeded!"
Mason felt ecstasy in his heart.
He was also worried that the Green Goblin serum he got from Mr. Sandstorm had serious side effects, but the most genuine superhuman serum was delivered to his door.
The young man waited for the analysis to be completed while dragging his time to chat with the drunk shopkeeper on some unnutritious topics, while looking at the luxurious trade fair site in front of him.
These good things placed on various booths turned into stacks of floating drawings in Mason's eyes, waiting for him to pick them up.
Spend money to buy?
Phew!
Men are not here to spend money!
If I spend a penny after scanning the goods today, I will lose!
This white prostitute Wang Laozi is sure!
