The next evening, Jiang Heng and Lucy took a Delamain taxi to the food factory.
This food factory was located in the North District of Watson, which was originally the industrial heart of Night City. With these factories, Watson should have been the richest district in Night City.
But everything changed after Arasaka Corporation entered Night City. Arasaka Saburo orchestrated an economic crisis, completely destroying the industry in the North District.
Now, most of the factories here have been abandoned, and the people have become impoverished.
However, some factories still stand here. Most of these remaining factories belong to large companies, which have large companies as their backers, so they naturally wouldn't collapse so easily.
…
“Lucy, you stay here. Hack into their surveillance and some of their defense systems. If there are any turrets, shut them down. I'll sneak in.”
Jiang Heng and Lucy stood far from the factory gate, discussing their plan.
“Okay, be careful.” Lucy nodded.
“Then let's begin. Watch me work!” Jiang Heng smiled confidently, then walked towards the factory gate.
At this time, Jiang Heng was still wearing a wireless radio communicator in his ear, allowing him to communicate with Lucy over short distances.
After Jiang Heng left, Lucy's Kiroshi optics focused on a camera at the factory gate. She easily hacked into it.
“Jiang Heng, I've succeeded. All of the factory's cameras are now under my control. Let me see if I can find any areas with weak defenses where you can sneak in… ”
Lucy controlled the cameras to check the situation inside the factory while communicating with Jiang Heng.
At this time, Jiang Heng said: “Don't bother, Lucy. You just need to shut down their turrets and automated defense systems.”
“Huh?”
Lucy was stunned, not understanding why Jiang Heng would ask this.
However, the next second, Jiang Heng's actions shocked her.
He walked straight to the factory gate without any attempt to hide. The two Maelstrom goons guarding the gate immediately noticed him.
“Hey~ What are you doing, Jiang Heng? Wasn't the plan to sneak in?” Lucy asked hurriedly.
But Jiang Heng didn't reply. The two Maelstrom guards were already walking towards him.
In Night City, many factories are actually controlled by various gangs. Although companies and street gangs seem incompatible, they have many dealings with each other.
For example, the All Foods factory where the protagonist V and Jackie went to get the Flathead in the game's storyline. That factory was actually owned by Biotech, but it was managed by people from the Maelstrom gang.
And in Westbrook's Neon Street, the Tyger Claws gang and company dogs are closely intertwined, their relationship unclear.
…
Maelstrom is the largest gang in Watson. The members of this gang are obsessed with cybernetic modifications and even abduct ordinary people to experiment with cybernetic modifications. It is because of these guys that many cyberpsychotics, who can't handle cybernetic bodies, have appeared on the streets.
The most distinctive feature of Maelstrom members are those terrifying facial optics. They all hollow out their faces and install these terrifying optical implants.
When the two guards, armed with firearms, saw Jiang Heng walking towards them, they immediately stopped him.
“Hey~ What are you doing here?”
The two guards looked at Jiang Heng with ill intentions, their gun barrels pointed directly at him.
Jiang Heng grinned and replied: “Me? I'm here to kill people, of course!”
Clang~
Suddenly, Jiang Heng flipped his hand and pulled out a katana from somewhere. Then, with lightning speed, he swung his sword.
A flash of light, a spray of blood.
With one strike, he decapitated the two Maelstrom members who had cybernetic implants!
Their heads hit the ground before they even understood what had happened.
“Perfect infiltration? As long as I kill everyone, it's the perfect infiltration!”
After killing the two, Jiang Heng smiled and said calmly.
Then he walked towards the factory, his sword in hand.
Because Lucy had taken control of the factory's monitors, the others didn't notice when he killed the two guards. The surveillance cameras that were supposed to automatically alert the authorities didn't react.
Lucy was stunned. This was what the guy meant by infiltration.
But soon, Lucy started to worry. This guy was being too reckless. After all, the Maelstrom members in this factory were all equipped with combat cybernetics. They were fully armed. If they attacked in a swarm, Jiang Heng would be instantly shredded.
“Jiang Heng, be careful!” Lucy quickly reminded him.
“Don't worry, Lucy, I'll be fine.” Jiang Heng smiled confidently, then continued walking into the factory.
Seeing this, Lucy couldn't think about anything else. She focused on monitoring the situation inside the factory.
“Be careful, Jiang Heng, someone's coming!”
Reaching a corner, Lucy quickly reminded him.
But before she finished speaking, Jiang Heng had already taken the initiative and decapitated the person at the corner with a single strike.
