Chapter 77 - Chapter 77 The Magical Uses of Stimulants

In the billboard image, a skinny kid wearing round goggles and a white fanged mask was running frantically.

His running posture had a tremendous sense of speed, as if he was trying to squeeze out every bit of his speed performance.

The camera lens of the advertisement followed him continuously, and the surrounding scenery kept flashing by.

The camera zoomed out, and three armed enemies appeared ahead, spotting the skinny kid who was sprinting.

The three simultaneously raised their guns and opened fire.

At this moment, the running kid suddenly took out a green vial and injected it into his waist and abdomen.

His already not slow pace instantly became even faster, and at the same time, streams of green light trailed behind him, fully showcasing the surge in speed.

Just as his speed reached its limit, he executed a stylish slide tackle, sliding into the midst of the enemies.

Bullets kept flying past him, constantly grazing him, the gun lines followed closely behind, but always lagged slightly behind the kid, unable to catch up to his body.

The kid who rushed into the enemy crowd drew his gun and fired, instantly killing the three of them.

Then the camera zoomed in, and the kid approached the camera, took out an un-injected vial, and spoke the advertisement's lines.

"Run fast, hit fast, win fast!

Ascension Technology Power Excitement Agent, experience the feeling of flying, always one step ahead, leaving death far behind!

Jointly produced by Ascension Technology & Arasaka Pharmaceutical Labs! Quality guaranteed, affordable price!"

The screen froze at this moment, turning into a promotional image, with a large promotional slogan plastered on the screen, attracting the attention of passersby.

This advertisement was naturally designed by Luoqi, and the protagonist was completely based on the image of the Power Kid.

Just today, the promotion and distribution related to Ascension Technology and the Power Excitement Agent have officially launched.

Cooperating with the heat of the press conference, various types of advertisements were placed throughout Night City.

It was not strange for David to see relevant advertisements in the subway station.

In fact, not only this larger billboard, but many other small places also displayed advertisements for the Power Excitement Agent.

[Working overtime late, tired and sleepy, just inject Power Excitement Agent.

Just a small vial, keeping you excited all night long!]

Small advertisements like this, with pictures and slogans, could be found in many places in the station.

"Power Excitement Agent, huh, so powerful."

Looking at the content on the billboard, David couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, feeling a little more anticipation for Ascension Technology.

The train entered the station, David got on the train, and went all the way to Ascension Technology.

"Mr. David Martinez, welcome to Ascension Technology.

Chairman L is currently in business negotiations, please proceed to the reception room and wait patiently. I will notify Chairman L of your arrival as soon as possible."

In front of the Ascension Technology gate, the reception AI verified David's identity, then allowed him entry and guided him to the reception room.

Stepping into Ascension Technology, David curiously looked around at the company's environment.

Although Ascension Technology's office building was not located in the company square where large companies were clustered and high-end office buildings were everywhere.

Its internal decoration was also quite high-end.

Especially with numerous employees constantly shuttling between various office workstations, a busy scene that clearly showed the company's vigorous vitality.

Passing by an office cubicle, through the transparent glass wall, he could see an employee at a workstation continuously operating a computer terminal.

The employee was focused on his work, not noticing David watching him from outside the glass wall, or perhaps he didn't have time to pay attention.

He finished processing a document and sent it out.

But before the employee could relax, more work was immediately sent to the terminal for him to handle.

Looking at the gradually accumulating work and feeling his tired body, the employee felt like he couldn't go on.

In the past few days, his daily sleep time did not exceed four hours, and the rest of the time was basically spent busy with Ascension Technology's Night City debut.

And today's press conference pushed the workload to a peak, with large batches of orders needing to be processed, his brain was almost overloaded.

But the employee gritted his teeth, pulled open the drawer on his right side, took out a green vial from inside, and injected it into himself.

The stimulant was injected into his body, and instantly the employee's cloudy brain became incredibly clear, restoring him to a state of full vitality, and he continued to immerse himself in work.

This was the Power Excitement Agent that Luoqi thoughtfully prepared for these excellent employees.

Although the acceleration effect of the Power Excitement Agent only lasted for one minute, the excitatory effect it brought to the user was not synchronized with the acceleration of physical functions. This state of brain excitement would last longer, and combined with the lack of side effects, using stimulants to improve work efficiency became a feasible solution.

And David, watching this scene from outside the wall, was dumbfounded. If he wasn't mistaken, this guy was injecting Power Excitement Agent.

David was somewhat shocked. How could these Ascension Technology employees be so diligent and hardworking, to the point of injecting stimulants to restore their work efficiency in order to complete their tasks.

Furthermore, looking around, there were quite a few others who, like the employee in front of him, continued to work after injecting the stimulant.

What David didn't know was that this employee actually didn't want to work so hard at all, but he had no choice.

If he had the chance, he definitely wouldn't choose to come to this company as an undercover agent. This Ascension Technology didn't treat him like a person at all, piling a huge amount of work onto him.

But now he had no turning back, and he wasn't the only one like this, many other employees were treated the same way.

Originally, he hadn't planned to work this hard. Luoqi's stipulated working hours for them weren't this exaggerated, and overtime was completely voluntary.

However, since other employees started working desperately, he couldn't fall behind.

When the first person used the stimulant Luoqi gave them, others were also forced to join this endless work.

Just like that, under the mutual comparison of these excellent undercover employees, Ascension Technology showed unprecedented vitality.

Naturally, Luoqi was overjoyed about this, and even provided them with the 'benefit' of unlimited supply of Power Excitement Agent.

Shifting his gaze, David didn't linger either. He walked past the cubicle and arrived at the reception room as instructed.

Unlike the busy scene in the outer office area, the reception area was particularly quiet at this time, with only one concierge waiting there.

"Hello, Mr. Martinez, please have a seat. Chairman L is still in a meeting, please wait for a moment.

What would you like to drink?"

"Water is fine, thank you."

It was David's first time being treated so politely, and he was a little unaccustomed to it, responding with a slight shyness.

David waited in the reception room for a long time before receiving the notification that Luoqi's meeting had ended.

"Mr. Martinez, Chairman L is waiting for you in his office, please follow me."
