A Core Ship From The Start
/ A Core Ship From The Start Chapter 1171
Chapter 1171: Chapter 798 Tremor_3 Chapter 1171: Chapter 798 Tremor_3 As for the other aspect, that was even simpler.
Running away from a company? Couldn't I just start a new business?
At that moment, the communication sound rang by D's ear.
“Sir, the journalist you have an appointment with has arrived.”
“Let her in.”
“Yes.”
D turned around and sat back down in the chair, and then saw the doors open, followed by a female journalist walking in, with a photographer trailing behind her.
The moment they laid eyes on D in front of them, both their steps faltered, a look of disbelief and bewilderment appeared on their faces. Of course, D knew exactly why–after all, her 99 points of Charm were truly… well, how should I put it? This damned, inescapable Charm.
“Please, take a seat.”
D looked at them and snapped her fingers. It was at this moment they seemed to snap out of some kind of trance, and hurriedly sat down obediently, like primary school students–this, of course, was also the effect of D's Charm, as if Duanmu Huai possessed the Fearful Aura, a wide-ranging aura, D had something similar called “Temptation Aura.” Anyone within a certain radius who saw D had to go through a round of Willpower testing; failing the test would result in a Charmed state, which was almost permanent and couldn't be dispelled.
Of course, in the game, it primarily meant high initial favorability, making it easier to attract NPCs to offer hidden quests, with more generous rewards.
But in reality…
“Hello, I'm Sandra, a journalist from News Channel 54…”
Sandra, looking at the girl in front of her, was extremely nervous. Even though there were no fully-armed security guards here, and the other party seemed very gentle, just looking at the girl in front of her made Sandra feel utterly inferior, as if in comparison to this saintly, perfect being, she was like a defiled, broken thing. Even if she said nothing, just standing here was enough to highlight all the ugliness and flaws of everything else.
“There's no need to be so nervous, Miss Sandra.”
D chuckled softly, looking at the female journalist.
“Just call me D. So, can we start the interview?”
“Of course…”
D's voice, like a spring, calmed Sandra's trembling heart. She took a deep breath and slowly regained her composure, looking at D again with a hint of calm.
“So…”
After calming down, Sandra reverted to her professional duties as a journalist, asking D many questions, such as the future planning and vision for Night City, and what kind of reforms D planned to implement in Night City–questions that concerned the citizens of Night City.
Facing these questions, D answered each one, until the interview was about to end, Sandra stared at D and asked the final question.
“Are you aware that President Myers of New America has publicly demanded Night City's reintegration into New America?”
“I've heard something about it.”
D nodded, she clearly understood what this meant; after the last war ended, due to Arasaka's intervention, the war between New America and the Free State came to a halt, and a nominal unification was achieved, while Night City remained an independent city-state due to Arasaka's influence.
And now, with Arasaka's downfall and Night City falling into her own hands, New America obviously wanted to reclaim Night City, to fully unify all of North America.
“So, what is your opinion on President Myers' demand?”
“Opinion?”
D smiled slightly upon hearing Sandra's question.
“Just New America…it's not worthy of my concern. Night City is my city, and that won't change. If Myers foolishly wants to take over this city, then I will make her understand… the consequences of such an action are more than New America can bear.”
