"What the hell is going on with this Virtual Space!"
In the hall of a shopping mall, the hackers all held their pistols, nervously scanning their surroundings, not daring to relax for a moment.
Pavel checked his pistol with a growing anxiety, feeling very uncomfortable with the current situation.
Truth be told, as an experienced hacker, Pavel had been through many battles, having had encounters with security personnel from numerous countries.
Even against those well-trained security staff, Pavel didn't feel inferior, as both parties had roughly equivalent combat force. In the Virtual Space, if restrictions on weapons were lifted, although the hackers might be besieged by official forces, they could hold on for a while, and retreat if the situation turned sour.
In short, if they encountered official personnel, whether they fought or fled, the situation was easy to assess. Even in defeat, there wouldn't be a strong sense of frustration.
