"Do you think Military Science can fully understand Huang Ban?"
"Or rather, do you think you really know well enough?"
After saying this, he took a box of tea leaves from under the table and leisurely prepared a cup of tea for the other party.
He used the Japanese tea ceremony technique he had sneakily learned from Wagako, and after practicing a few tis privately, he managed to get the hang of it.
"..."
Seeing Lin Miao’s actions, Percy’s pupils narrowed slightly...
It was the Tigereye gang.
Lin Miao had indeed never t anyone from Huang Ban, but he had t the higher-ups of the Tigereye gang, like Ogata and Wagako.
And the Tigereye gang was essentially the dog of Huang Ban. Although they once had a clandestine eting at Cloud Top, and the confidentiality there was decent, it wasn’t easy for Military Science to acquire the secrets inside. Who’s to say there wasn’t a third person in the room at that ti?
Moreover, killing Zhengfa Chengtailang was, in a way, serving Huang Ban by punishing the Tigereye gang, and since then, the two sides had no further conflicts.
As for the deceased hacker from Huang Ban, that’s a thing of the past.
Percy pursed his lips. A small company, of course, couldn’t go to war with so many companies in the cybernetics industry, but if it were Huang Ban... it’s entirely possible.
"Did you make a deal with Huang Ban?"
Percy’s voice rose a few notches. The two could be said to be bitter enemies, and no matter what, they had to fight it out. If this were true, Military Science wouldn’t leave a factory standing for Huang Ban.
Lin Miao chuckled.
"I’m tricking you; I didn’t make any agreent with Huang Ban. Not a single person from their side has reached out to ."
Percy felt slightly relieved, then heard the other party whisper softly,
"Do you really believe what I just said?"
Damn you!
Seeing Percy grow more frustrated, Lin Miao laughed, very amused.
He leaned back in the chair, speaking with ease,
"Bring soone who can actually communicate with , Miss Percy. I might have ignited a little fla with my cigarette, but if you think this fla will die out simply by smothering it, you might be a bit naive."
Yes, this kind of exoskeleton would endanger the market for combat implants.
But as they say, better their death than mine. If the market for new, cheap exoskeletons could cover the losses from the implant business, it might not be unacceptable.
Why should I care about the overall macroeconomic downturn?
When have capitalists ever concerned themselves with such matters? Understand free trade; capital is free.
In a chaotic capital market, can Military Science really trust that Huang Ban won’t act recklessly?
Conversely, can Huang Ban believe that Military Science won’t cause trouble?
The possibility of such a situation happening isn’t zero. The crucial thing is whether they believe their opponent will honestly abandon this new technology tree.
Lin Miao knew that these people couldn’t possibly want to acquire his company sincerely. Whoever ca to him today, he would provoke them with a ntion of the other side.
Be it Military Science or Huang Ban, their conflict itself was a resource to exploit.
Compared to his opponents, Horizon Corporation seems rather insignificant. Using it to attack the enemy is a better choice than eliminating it.
Of course, if Military Science were determined to take him down, Lin Miao would have to find another way to resolve the dilemma.
...
Why would ERO’s ergency rescue operation involve the Scavenger?
For players, this is a aningless question; they only need to know who the enemy is and where they are.
Leave the rest to the King of the Great West.
But for Lin Miao, he can’t just snap his fingers and summon a bunch of Scavengers to kidnap people on purpose.
So, he found stable channels to contact these people and give them ’assignnts.’
And it just so happened he had one—ERO.
Given it’s a place where people constantly die for various reasons and implants pile up, how could it lack channels for selling implants?
Also, hospital employees who dismantle the implants secretly need soone to sell to, right?
So go to the black market doctors, while the rest mostly end up in the Scavengers’ pockets. Not everyone can find reliable and long-term rcenaries like Mann, just as Gloria did.
Therefore, finding contact information for the Scavengers in ERO is incredibly easy. If the target is suitable, persuading them to harass those corporate dogs with Gold mberships is no big deal.
After all, this is their bread and butter.
A human life for ten thousand euros is a good deal for those desperadoes.
And before undertaking missions, the Scavengers also investigate the targets and act only when there’s little to no risk.
Regarding the Trauma Team alerts embedded in those mbers, the Scavengers and rcenaries naturally have corresponding jamming systems; tensions always develop in tandem.
After all, isn’t it highly unlikely that soone would specifically bother the Scavengers by giving them targets and money?
If the issue lies with the target, it’s manageable; the Scavengers can detect it. But if you intend to stage a hero-rescue-beauty scenario, with the Scavengers capturing the person and you mounting a full-blown assault to rescue them from the stronghold, they’d probably question your sanity.
Who knows, when they regain freedom after re-education through labor years later, would the Scavengers recall that afternoon when a player nad Brother Ni infiltrated their stronghold and they caught a glimpse of his sinister smile?
The Scavenger, who urgently needed a piss and decided to solve it behind a garbage heap, only caught a glimpse of Brother Ni hiding in the corner.
