Chapter 714: Unfinished Song

Johnny Silverhand is a rock star.

Although he does not have a record company or an agent from a big company, and the money he earns is not enough for him to live in a big house, compared to bands and musicians with mature business models, he is just an immature poor guy, and naturally he is not So red that it turns purple——

But if being so red is the first echelon, this guy is definitely the second echelon. In Night City, he is an unprecedented rock star who has surpassed the first echelon.

Music is contagious, and his performance is absolutely unmatched. It is precisely because of his talent that he was able to achieve the feat of attacking Arasaka Tower:

The attack on Arasaka Tower was a very sudden plan. In order to cover up people's eyes and avoid the Arasaka intelligence network that was everywhere, they only started to take real action at the beginning of the plan.

The most important part of the operation, and the one that started it, was when Johnny Silverhand issued a notice to hold a free concert in front of Arasaka Tower!

The concert was held at short notice, with only a few hours of reaction time. Johnny didn't even doubt his charm. He did it all easily, and even did it better than he imagined——

When the concert reached its climax, crazy people even dared to throw Molotov cocktails at Arasaka Tower!

Although Lille disliked this second-rate guy in many aspects, in the past, or most of the time, he would not have chosen to be friends with such a guy.

But fate is so wonderful.

The bastard Johnny appears in his head, and he inexplicably occupies his computing power, and even interferes with his work. Thinking from a normal and rational perspective, his mind is full of how to limit or even limit the amount of money he can use while solving his own needs. It is to eliminate this useless thing.

But maybe there is an imprint of the soul in the sector that truly maintains human thinking. There has been a fusion between the two of them to a certain extent. Lille suddenly had a new idea:

In essence, Johnny, the unlucky guy, did nothing wrong and was inexplicably bound to Lear.

It can even be said that Johnny was originally a passerby, and it was only because Leal needed it that he captured his consciousness, which is native to the cyberpunk world.

If a passerby captured by oneself is disobedient, does not follow his will, refuses to communicate, allows hostility to grow, and wants to eliminate the opponent once and for all,

Then he would be just like Johnny.

It could even be said that this kind of thinking may be more similar to that of people who are far worse than Johnny.

He suddenly thought that in the original work of "Cyberpunk 2077", the relic chip had the effect of completely overwriting the consciousness and thinking of the person being inserted, eliminating a person from both hardware and software, and turning that person into another person.

Now that I have not been penetrated, but I have contracted bad habits because of these trivial things, wouldn't that make me even weaker?

Lille also places the hopes of many people on him. He does not want to become changeable and become a person that is completely contrary to his ideal self.

What's more, Johnny is not a bad guy at heart, he just has no brains on many issues - there are many ordinary people in this world who have no brains. Could it be that they use various means like Arasaka, Ye's Group, and Military Technology? Force them to do the same?

[Lille: I thought you would choose a song with a more familiar style. 】

In the factory, Johnny controls Leal's arm as if it were his own.

The transformation ability of Transformers, coupled with the cutting-edge ergonomics and motor neurology knowledge in Leal's head, made Johnny almost unable to feel the difference between this hand and a human hand.

He didn't choose to rock out - he didn't even choose to sing.

A 44-beat ditty, with an 8-beat break at the beginning, and a mechanical arm slapping the guitar twice.

Thin mechanical fingers teased the strings, and the beat speed was about 140. In theory, this is very fast, but Johnny's performance didn't feel fast, and it didn't even sound complicated.

As for why it's "around 140", it's because Johnny turned off the calibration clock.

Musicians hope to have a rhythm as precise as a clock, but Johnny refuses to really have a rhythm at the level of an atomic clock.

The tune is soothing and rhythmic, unique but not complicated. It reminds Lear of his days at Camp Adecado, far away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The badland is a calm cloudy day, the sun is setting, Jack, V, Panam, Thor Well, there's even David's little gang.

There are many people who actually never drank together in Badland, but Lille can remember such a scene.

Thinking about it, he suddenly felt that something was missing from this song: other instruments and vocals were missing.

Maybe it's missing, but there's something else weird about it, because the song doesn't sound as violent as most rock, especially Samurai-style rock.

The music section ends abruptly at the climax, as if the scene suddenly ends after people toast and drink together.

Sam was stunned: he had never seen Transformers actually play music.

As for whether it's good or not, as long as you're human, it's hard to ignore Johnny's music.

The Autobots can clearly hear that its rhythm, pitch, and intensity changes are obviously not mechanical, and it is completely human music——

Except for a special type like Bumblebee, Transformers can't even hear music, so how can they create music that humans like?

The conclusion is that this is the bomb.

After the talk, Johnny held the guitar and didn't move or speak, as if pretending to be an expert.

[Lille: It feels like it's not finished. ]

[Johnny: Because it's not finished. This is rock, but it sounds different when played with an acoustic guitar, and there's no bass. ]

[Johnny: Also, not all the noisy ones are rock. You think it's noisy because the emotions in the song are too strong. When they are expressed directly, it's shocking. ]

[Johnny: Soulless music is not music. They can't understand it because they are unsophisticated. Okay, I'll leave it to you next. ]

Johnny returned to the sector obediently. After Lill took over his body, he put the acoustic guitar against the wall.

Unfinished song? That means it's not released?

But why did Lill feel that the melody sounded a little familiar?

"Are you really a human?" Sam opened his mouth wide.

"Nonsense." Lear jumped onto the workbench and patted Sam on the shoulder. "Are you feeling inferior? Didn't expect that you can't compare to a robot like me as a human? Don't think too much. I really have a doctorate in another world."

"Lear." Optimus Prime interrupted their chat. "What are you going to do next? I detected that you inserted a device into Sam's nervous system. We have never studied this kind of device."

"That's right. You are Transformers. You have never seen humans before coming to Earth. The reverse method makes it difficult for humans to have their own research direction.

This thing can read Sam's EEG signals very safely and export the information to his brain.

If you are lucky."

Sam was alert: "Wait a minute, wait a minute. What do you mean by lucky?"

"Literally, if it's just reading EEG signals, I dare to guarantee it, but to make you return to normal, I have to export the energy of the fire source inside.

I have never done this kind of work. There may be risks."

As he said this, Lear glanced at Optimus Prime.

The latter immediately understood what Lear meant: "Unless someone who knows more about Cybertron technology than you helps you, is that what you want to say?"

Lear spread his hands and nodded.

Optimus Prime sighed, and Lear could even smell the smell of engine oil.

"Ironhide, ambulance."
