In the game, the protagonist V has three origins to choose from, one of which is Company V.

Company V graduated from Arasaka Academy and joined Arasaka Corporation after graduation. It is unknown what department he initially worked for, but he should be in charge of intelligence warfare and rapid response missions between various companies and Arasaka Corporation.

Later, Company V was parachuted into the Counterintelligence Department of Arasaka Corporation and became the assistant to Arthur Jenkins, a senior member of the Counterintelligence Department.

The body that Vincent traveled through was Company V in late 2075.

At that time he had just been transferred to the Counterintelligence Department and had not yet become Arthur Jenkins' assistant.

As a time traveler, Vincent played "Cyberpunk 2077" in his previous life and watched the derivative anime "Edgewalker", so he has a very familiar understanding of the worldview of this world.

He knew that without the support of the system, with his abilities, it would be impossible for him to shake the company's position.

Considering his own survival and life, he pondered for a long time and decided to continue climbing up inside Arasaka.

Anyway, with his own strength, it is impossible for him to stir up trouble like V in the game.

It’s better to adapt to the local customs, become a company executive, and enjoy the life of a cyberpunk superior.

As for overthrowing a company, changing the world, and other such grand undertakings, let's leave them to more capable people!

With this self-hypnotic thought in mind, Vincent began to work diligently for the Counterintelligence Department.

It was not until he successfully mixed with Arthur Jenkins and became an assistant to a senior member of the Counterintelligence Department as in the plot that the long-dormant system in him suddenly awakened.

Vincent stared blankly at the system panel in front of him that only he could see.

When he came to his senses, he suppressed his excitement and began to study the golden finger that suddenly appeared.

Then he discovered that something seemed to be wrong with this 'system'...

As far as he knew, the characters in the game had five main attributes, namely [Physical Ability], [Reaction], [Intelligence], [Calmness], and [Technical Ability].

But the system he obtained only had two attributes: [Physical] and [Spiritual].

Moreover, in the [System Prosthetics Mall], in addition to the advanced prosthetics that appear in games and animations, there are also extremely outrageous technological items such as the Iron Man Mark series battle suits and the Chitauri technology exoskeleton armor.

Seeing these things, Vincent was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help but get excited.

With these things, let alone becoming a legend in Night City, even becoming the cheating 'V Shockwave' in the game is not completely impossible!

The only problem is that all the tasks issued by the system, as well as the methods of obtaining experience and points, must be carried out in Night City.

At that time, he received a task from his boss to go on a business trip to be responsible for the Jakarta Summit.

This trip would waste at least half a year...

Faced with the two conflicting choices between company mission and system mission, Vincent only pondered for half a second before making a decisive decision.

I quit!

Screw this company, screw this Arasaka!

I've already activated my cheat code, who would want to be your 996 worker? !

So, in early 2076, Vincent arrogantly came to Arasaka Tower, turned down the mission in front of Arthur Jenkins, and then... he was fired by Arasaka Corporation.

The euphemism is to export useful talents to society.

Vincent didn't care about this because this was exactly what he wanted.

In the game "Cyberpunk 2077", V left the company in 2077.

Vincent's outrageous move made him leave the company early in 2076.

All the past efforts turned into smoke, but Vincent was not lost at all.

Because a wider world and future are slowly opening up to him.

After leaving the company, Vincent found his good brother of many years, Jack Wilson, and became a mercenary through his introduction.

The two formed a small team and began to accept missions in Night City and show their talents.

But due to the system, Vincent's strength is getting stronger and stronger. He can always find some military-grade legendary prostheses inexplicably, and no matter how many prostheses he installs, he will never have mental problems.

This made his good brother Jack very happy, but also very worried.

Even though Vincent repeatedly emphasized that there was no problem, Jack still insisted that he carry immunosuppressants with him.

Since then, Vincent has taken on more and more dangerous missions, and he even began to accept employment from the NCPD to deal with cyberpsychopaths.

A mission of this level was too dangerous for Jack. After some painful thinking, Vincent finally decided to leave Jack temporarily and become a lone wolf mercenary.

After that, Vincent, who became a lone wolf, became more and more famous.

But no matter how famous he was, he always wore a suit, carried a briefcase, and dressed quite decently.

According to his explanation, this was a habit he developed in the company before.

But in fact, suits and briefcases are the default appearance of system equipment.

The former is a special bulletproof suit from the system mall, while the latter is a five-cubic-meter space equipment.

The reason why Vincent dressed like this was simply because he was reluctant to spend system points to change the appearance of these two pieces of equipment!

…

…

In the apartment, Vincent was drinking coffee and reading emails.

He didn't take the three Vortex Gang members he had killed before, nor the unlucky Tiger Claw Gang fraudster, seriously at all.

Because in Night City, such things are so common!

Apart from anything else, yesterday's dead lottery had a total of eighty people.

Among them were at least thirty bodies of scavengers, which he had disposed of as he passed by.

There’s nothing we can do, who made them scavengers?

Most of the scavengers are scum at the bottom of the society and are cruel by nature. They are accustomed to attacking unsuspecting passers-by or hooligans, harvesting their cybernetics and organs and selling them on the black market.

In their eyes, human life is just a bunch of commodities that can be exchanged for money on the black market.

Organ trafficking, reselling prosthetic bodies... as long as it is a profitable business or task, they will take it without hesitation, without any honor or purpose.

Naturally, they don't have any strict organizational planning and the structure is very loose.

Because of this, they are also the most numerous and the most difficult rats to eliminate in Night City.

Fortunately, thanks to Vincent, the number of scavengers who died in the past six months has increased by 1,700%. The corpses dragged out of the city to be burned alone could fill an entire garbage dump.

With such efficiency, even the King of Hell would give a thumbs up and say it’s a good job!

"... Well, another bunch of spam text messages and scam emails."

"I'll have to ask Lucy to come over in a few days to help me upgrade the firewall."

Vincent muttered to himself as he flipped through his emails.

At a glance, most of the messages on it are classic junk messages such as [##Super Medical Lottery##] [##Tintin Enhancing Nano Gel Scam Warning##] [I am Johnny Silverhand, transfer money to me].

Suddenly, Vincent frowned and opened an email from David.

【Warning! You have been attacked! 】

After seeing the end, Vincent couldn't help but frown.

Isn’t this the warning scam message that was very popular in the past two years?

He scrolled the page to the top, carefully read the sender's name several times, and then with streams of data flashing in his eyes, he called someone with a frown on his face.

"Hey, Boss, what's up?"

"You're nothing!" Vincent said angrily, "Did you send me this fraudulent email?"

"ah?"

"Ah what, tell me whether it is true or not."

"That's definitely not the case. It could be a coincidence!"

Vincent's face was full of doubt. Just as he was about to continue asking questions, he suddenly received another call.

[Regina Jones requests a call...]

Vincent frowned slightly: "Wait, don't hang up yet, there's a message."

After that, Vincent put the message from his younger brother David on the backstage and answered the call from Regina Jones.

"Hey, V, how's your day?"

Vincent thought about it and nodded, "Not bad. What? Is there another cyberpsychopath in Watson District?"

"We are all old acquaintances. Just speak directly. No need to be polite. I still have a call to make!"

Regina Jones sighed and said, "Okay, I'll be frank. I have a mysterious client who specifically asks you to take on a mission. He's very generous, but he's a little stingy with the information. He said he'd only tell you if he saw you in person. What do you think?"

Vincent quickly got to the point: "How generous?"

Regina Jones smiled and said, "The preliminary decision is to offer a reward of 20,000 Euros, plus access to military-grade prosthetics. However, I don't think he cares about the price, and maybe he can raise it a little more."

Vincent's eyes lit up and he said decisively: "Okay, I'll take it. Where shall we meet?"

Regina Jones smiled and said, "The old place, the Afterlife Bar."

Vincent said without hesitation: "No problem."

After saying that, he hung up the phone and answered another call.

“David!”

"Yes, yes, Boss, it really wasn't me..."

“Stop talking nonsense!” Vincent interrupted him without hesitation, and then said with a smile, “Notify Jack and Mann, gather the team and wait for me, we have work to do!”
