After the great war, subtle changes began to unfold. The involvement of players and Lin Miao nudged the originally 'legitimate' course of Night City toward the path of a runaway wild horse.
ERO, near death in competition with Trauma Team, with no way to heaven nor door to earth, about to be chased down by the bank for debt collection, suddenly experienced a shift.
Military Science established a restructuring team to station at ERO, continued to issue loans, took over all debts from other banks, and ousted the Night City Government, Ye Group, Biotechnology, and other shareholders, letting Lin Miao take all the shares.
This move is akin to the suddenly favored by the emperor in the court.
It brought ERO, which was already in the delisting process, back to life, whereas Trauma Team's stock was short-sold, losing a substantial amount.
