Ripperdoc Cyberpunk: Edgerunners Novels & Stories

Corvin stepped forward. If the castle had made him look like a dark knight, this world made him look like a glitch in the rendering—something too old and organic dropped into a digital hellscape. His torn shirt and scars didn’t belong here. His eyes, with their ember-glow, cut right through the neon. He didn’t bother with a weapon. The nearest drone leaped, metal jaws gaping. He met it midair. One hand clamped around its snout, slamming the jaws shut before they could close on his throat. His other hand drove into the joint of its front leg. Metal shrieked. He twisted.

“I mean, the drider could easily change back into his terrifying spider form and kill us, but he hasn’t done that, so I would assume he is trustworthy.” “I am very trustworthy and not deaf,” the drider turns around and glances between us. There is a white fang sticking out of his mouth when he smiles. He reminds me of a vampire with his pale skin and long dark hair. “And my name is Edison. I’m a person, just like the two of you.” “A person that loves to eat Lycans and werewolves for breakfast...” Alex mutters. “And humans,” Edison helpfully adds but catches himself when we both stare at him. “Err...I won’t eat you since you saved my life, but I do love to eat little critters,” he strokes his

I can always tell when she is around by the clicking of her heels. “Jaidyn I see you have met Kyaria.” Gabby says to me. Kyaria, then name sounds familiar, but again I can’t remember where I have heard it before. I look at the model again. Damn, she is cute. She is sexy without trying. She looks at me with those big teal-colored eyes and my cock twitches in my pants. Right at that moment our frontman Aiden struts in. His eyes lock on Kyaria. Great!

On the right was the corresponding location in Aegis Online. The location was called the Ironcrag Peaks. And the "drones" were rendered as level 35 hostile mobs: Steel Hounds. "Steel Hounds," Marcus grunted in recognition. "Nasty pack hunters. High evasion, armor-piercing bite attacks." “The game's code translates real-world mechanical assets into fantasy beasts,” Kara continued. “If you can capture the digital avatar of the drone network—if you can 'tame' the Alpha Steel Hound in the game—you will rewrite the administrative privileges of that drone swarm in the real world. You will become their master.”

][ ACTIVATING DEFENSE PROTOCOL. From the shadows of the server racks, droids emerged. Not the clumsy security bots. These were Spider-Tanks. Fast, agile, with machine guns mounted on their backs. "Jack! Hold them off!" Sebastian yelled. "Kenji! Jack in! Kill the upload!" Jack dropped the plushie. He pulled out a grenade launcher (hidden inside the plushie).THUMP. The first grenade hit a Spider-Tank. BOOM. "Eat this, you metal crabs!"

I held my card to the warrior who stopped me, he held a face of pity as he lets me in. What the hell happened in here? All of his material was dropped on the ground, even his dissecting set. I picked up a syringe that was right beside the entry and set it on the table, full of powder. I stepped into his laboratory and saw all the books ripped into small thread and his laptop was broken, the worst thing was his body. On the ground. With blood. "Raphael!" I screamed and hurriedly walked toward his lifeless body, I checked his injuries and saw a big red rash on his chest, it would infect and probably spread around his body.

I managed to laugh, though it only lasted a couple of seconds because of the pain which surged through my neck. I moved my hand to hold onto wound in an attempt to relieve the pain, but it didn't do all that much other than remind me of the scar which I was going to have left once it had healed. I was also reminded that Link was the one who did this to me. But then I remembered what Kyros told me. Alpha James had drugged him and messed with his mind, he was nothing more than a weapon in that asshole's game, a game I didn't want to play anymore.

not up one second after hitting the ground, he was already in front of Rin, and with a six inch blade sticking out and spinning through his palm, he was ready to put a hole through her forehead. the seemingly surprised Rin dodged splendidly to counter with jab on the ribs, but as soon as the punch connected, a long thick needle pierced through her hand from the point of impact. the needle pierced her bones and vital muscles, causing her to lose all functions of her right hand and a lot of blood by the time she backed away. what stared Cypher in the face was a great opportunity. he was unable to fulfil the purpose of his mission and there was no greater consolation than taking the life of som

In Sector 4, you learn early that predators hunt you when you rennst. My hand slipped into my boot shank. My fingers closed around narrow, sharp drone rotor blade. It was a ridiculous weapon against three full armed hounds and a cybernetic monster. But I wasn't a lab rat. I was a survivor. I saw the whipmaker right into his intact eye. “Tell it, you chrome-plated piece of scrap.” The man stopped. No one in these labs talked to him. A cold, murderischer Funkeln came into his eye. “Undrawn little thing. I'll be

Then—the mirror screeched. A sharp, metallic scratching sound that set his teeth on edge. He spun around, eyes wide. Something was carving into the fogged glass, long, jagged letters forming as though written by an invisible claw. R – I – P Travis backed away, heart slamming in his chest. “Who’s there?! I’ll fucking kill you!” No reply—just the screeching, and the thick steam growing heavier by the second, coiling around his legs like vines. He ran back to the door, shoulder-slamming it again and again. The hinges rattled, but the wood refused to yield.
