Chapter 38 - Chapter 38 Phase Rift

In cyberspace, Lucy wanted to exit cyberspace immediately after hearing the voice of the enemy hacker, but it was too late.

The hacker had already set up a trap program in the subnet of the room, and locked Lucy in an instant, trapping her in the subnet of the room.

"Haha, a few little bugs have sneaked into the Blue Bi Building. Director Abernathy was right. It was a wise decision to have me pay attention to the rooms of these corporate employees."

The hacker's voice rang in Lucy's ears, and Rocky and Jack could also hear it clearly.

At this time, the trapped Lucy saw the arrival of the Arasaka hacker, and her eyes were filled with fear and anger.

"You Arasaka dog, let me go."

Lucy struggled angrily, trying to break free from control, but it was obvious that she couldn't. With the support of Arasaka's powerful equipment, they were no longer hackers on the same level.

"Don't struggle. The security forces will find you soon. Go to hell. But before you die, let me see some useful information. Director Abernathy should be interested in it. It might even be worth a lot of money."

The hacker said this calmly, as if Rocky and the other two were already in his pocket.

The hacker waved his hand, manipulated the data flow, and began to hack into the subnet of Rocky and the other two.

At this time, Rocky and Jack in the room were also affected.

In order to make Rocky and the others accept his intelligence search, the Arasaka hacker directly spread the electromagnetic short circuit and synaptic melting cracking programs to the two people's systems through the network connection.

In an instant, a powerful electromagnetic shock spread throughout Jack and Rocky's bodies. Their legs became weak and they were about to fall to the ground.

At this time, the effect of the soldier serum came into play. After being strengthened, the two people's nerve strength and toughness were greatly improved.

They had a higher resistance to this type of nerve-affecting control, and when they were about to fall to the ground, they used their hands to support their bodies in time.

Their strong recovery and adaptability also allow them to quickly adapt to physical discomfort.

"Uh... I finally understand why you hate hackers." Jack still had the mind to make a joke at this critical moment.

Soon, the intense pain made Jack shut his mouth.

The synaptic melting program was successfully uploaded, and the connection between the prosthesis and the personal system began to overheat and burn and melt their nerves. Although the nerves have been strengthened and the melting speed has been greatly suppressed, this effect still cannot be completely eliminated.

"You're right, Jack, that's why I hate hackers."

Rocky took out a green potion from his left hand and stabbed it directly into his thigh.

In an instant, a powerful vitality and vitality activated Rocky's body, and the melted synapses were quickly repaired in a short time.

This is exactly the effect of the power stimulant type 1. With the enhancement of the super soldier serum, the injection of stimulant produces an effect of one plus one being greater than two.

Rocky's strong physical fitness and powerful recovery ability allowed him to ignore the damage caused by the cracking program.

He took out another stimulant and gave Jack an injection, and the two of them soon returned to normal.

"Thanks, L. I feel much better now."

The Arasaka hacker in cyberspace was also shocked to see that the two were not affected by his program.

Since the two men were still conscious, he couldn't conduct a deep dive search on them, so he had to give up and wait for the security forces to deal with them.

Fortunately, there is Lucy in front of him. At this time, Lucy has no ability to resist. Under the invasion of powerful data flow, she has fallen into a coma.

The hacker decided to abandon Rocky and Jack and look for useful information from Lucy.

"Damn it! There's no information at all? As expected of Night City's cyberpunks, they haven't leaked any information at all."

Lucy didn't know the source of any commission for this mission, she only knew what to do. It was obviously impossible to obtain any information from her.

But soon the hacker made another sound of surprise.

"Look what I found! This chick was once Arasaka's property. Interesting, a defected hacker from Arasaka? No wonder she was able to bypass Arasaka ICE with this equipment that looked like it was found in a garbage dump."

This is a major discovery. If we report this guy to the higher-ups..."

Just as the Arasaka hacker was immersed in the joy of discovering information, he suddenly found that Rocky and Jack had disappeared from the room.

The two people could not be detected in the subnet of the room, as if they had disappeared out of thin air.

Just when he was still wondering, two red dots suddenly appeared in a place on his system map.

It was obvious that these were the two people who had disappeared.

"This place is...a network monitoring room! What!" the hacker exclaimed.

Where was the network monitoring room? Wasn't it right where he was lying? The hacker couldn't figure out how they got there so quickly and even thought his system was broken.

But when he exited the deep dive and left cyberspace, the fist that kept growing bigger in front of him told him that all this was real.

...

Just when Rocky and Jack released the cracking program.

"We have to find a way to save Lucy first. She's in danger and trapped in cyberspace. We have to find the hacker and take him out."

Rocky's eyes were filled with indifference and anger. He hated accidents and hated people hurting Lucy even more.

He was going to make this annoying hacker pay.

"How to find it?" Jack saw Rocky's anxiety.

Now that the only hacker in the team has been restricted, the two of them can be said to be no different from blind people. Not to mention finding a hacker, even whether they can get out of the room has become a problem.

"Follow me." Rocky responded.

At the same time, the consciousness quickly browses the module in the mind.

Now, the only way to break the deadlock is to rely on the ability of the module, and Rocky has already prepared plans for various emergencies. This is one of the reasons why Rocky dared to participate in the Blue Bi Building.

Without any hesitation, Rocky chose a module.

As the module was materialized, Rocky took out a dagger-like object and inserted it into the prosthesis of his left hand.

After waiting for one or two seconds, a red dot suddenly appeared on the map of the Rocky system.

"The enemy's position has been revealed." A prompt popped up as a red dot appeared.

[Apex Legends: Ash Skill Equipment Pack Mod]

[Contains three skill items for Ash in Apex Legends.

Death Mark - Data Knife: Stabbing this into a target reveals the attacker's location. It can be used on corpses, usually to reveal the location of the corpse's killer. Of course, if you want to find the attacker's location, you can also choose to stab yourself.

Arc Trap: A throwable electromagnetic trap that will bind and damage the nearest target.

Phase Rush - Phase Blade: Can tear a phase rift at any position within the range, performing a one-way teleportation rush.]

[Price Correction: Gift Pack Special -30%]

[Item Module: 35,000 Euros]

This is the module Rocky chose.

Rather than simply abilities, the module embodies Ash's skills in the form of equipment.

And unlike the nerfs made to the game for balance, the equipment in the module has more powerful and reasonable functions.

This allows Rocky to reverse search for the location of the hacker who just launched a cyber attack on him by inserting a data knife into himself.

At the same time, as long as the phase blade is within distance, it can ignore the obstruction of the wall and directly tear open a portal to any location.
