Boom-
Two sports cars roared out from the end of the street, about 1,500 meters from the Dewdrop Inn.
The enemy was seasoned, and their Hacker had also taken aggressive measures to stop Lier's Hacking:

Without a deep understanding of Cyberware systems, it was hard to detect a momentary power surge like that. Most Mercenary teams didn't bring along a Ripperdoc skilled in technology, so it was hard to notice a signal connecting in time.

That would at least leave him unable to calculate for most of the day.
In a battle, lacking Hacker support had a decisive impact on the fight. The enemy had ordered a retreat without hesitation-
