Micro missiles shot towards the highway, just as Mackinaw happened to drive past the explosion pointâ
Boom!
If it had been a normal car, it wouldâve probably been completely scrapped by the blast, along with the people inside.
But this Mackinaw was different; the car was lifted by the explosion just enough to surge over the cracked overpass...
At that moment, the Eight-star Gun concealed under the external armor synchronously opened fire!
Boom!
Drones fell like rain, yet Mackinaw kept driving!
"Wuhu! Awesome!"
After shouting, V slumped back into his seat, gripping the steering wheel.
And wasnât it just incredible?
In the car, three people worked together: V driving, Jack controlling the Eight-star Gun through a personal link, while Lille...Lille assisted with targeting the Eight-star Gun while managing electronic jamming equipment, also intermittently hacking particularly threatening Octants!
Lille had lifted the operational part of the access pod into the car and connected to Cyberspace without any cooling slots!
Heat sinks behind him flared open, steaming with heat, relying solely on the carâs built-in air exchanger for cooling!
After firing a round of magazines, the Eight-star Gun retracted back through its dedicated channel, and Jack began manually reloading as if he were a loader inside a tank!
After Jack reloaded the magazine, he pushed the gun up again, shouting loudly to V, "Damn, itâs hot!"
"The air conditioning is already maxed out!"
No drone missile could hit the car head-on, in their tactical observation systems, this vehicle looked absolutely unrecognizable!
The vehicles of the Tiger Claw Gang were trailing far behind, the person controlling the drones went from initially excited and arrogant to gradually surprised, solemn, and now sweating profusely, even a bit scared...
It had been less than 30 minutes!
These three were simply superhuman!
The Tiger Claw Gang got the drones, enthusiastically thinking it was a cat and mouse game, setting a trap in the slum...
But the opposing firepower was fiercer!
That big guy could even throw rebar to blow up drones!
Somehow, confusingly, their vehicle controlling drones outside the slum was targeted by a sniper rifle, and the vehicle was blown up with a direct shot.
Then the brutal alley fighting began, and the outcome was direct:
The first batch of about fifty people couldnât stop these three; only two survived.
That big guy, that woman, they moved like phantoms in the complex terrain of the slum, it was utterly a massacre.
Their hacker sat on the chair for less than a minute before turning into roasted brain, then two more who didnât take heed lasted only 30 seconds.
Sometimes they were sliced in half by a blade in the darkness, sometimes crushed into mush by the strong man with sheet metal, and other times the moment their front foot stepped in, the prosthetics would ignite.
The two survivors were because they didnât have enough prosthetics installed, so when they burned, the temperature wasnât high enoughâ
But they were basically turned into idiots, and without money for a doctor, they probably had only a day or two left.
The good news was they had enough drones...
Originally, they thought: a broken Mackinaw, it had escaped from City Hall because they had arranged it well, thatâs what the news said, thatâs what their boss said.
Then the three got in the carâthe Mackinaw revved up like a tank!
And why did Mackinaw carry missile pods?! Doesnât NCPD and the corporation check?!
The Tiger Claw Gang thought they were missile pods!
Inside the car, watching the drones smash down, Ueno started sweating, yelling, "Keep sending drones! Continue!"
"Boss... Boss!" his subordinate gently tugged at him, "Weâre out! The drones we brought are all gone!"
The driver discreetly slowed down, nervously sneaking a glance at Ueno...
Ueno nonchalantly shifted his gaze from the dashboard.
"Boss, thereâs NCPD up ahead, we canât chase any further..."
"Yeah... indeed, thereâs NCPDâs blockade ahead..." Ueno mumbled.
The blockade was right after the overpass.
They also... had supposedly completed their task, right?
Meanwhile, the driver puzzledly glanced at his dashboard, then at the vehicle ahead... was the Mackinaw getting closer?
Had he slowed down?
An unfavorable guess surfaced in his mind: "Boss! Boss!!! Theyâre slowing down... no wait, theyâre reversing!!!"
No sooner had he spoken than the Mackinaw had drawn level with the foremost vehicle of the Tiger Claw Gang!
...
Suddenly, it grew quiet inside the vehicle.
Images captured by the Crystal Ball reflected in Vâs Prosthetic Eye, she scanned around: "Why are there no drones?"
"Ran out of them." Jack pushed the Eight-star Gun back up.
"Ran out? Does that mean theyâre running?"
[Lille: NCPD is up ahead, they probably want to run, reverse, donât let them get away.]
V smirked menacingly, "Hah... good thing you reminded me."
The vehicle abruptly stopped, then almost seamlessly started reversing quickly!
It immediately collided with the vehicle behind!
Bang!
The Tiger Claw Gangâs sports car completely lost control and was launched off the overpass!
The Mackinaw merely tilted its rear up, and like swerving to avoid a pandemic deity, it rapidly turned to avoid the car.
The vehicle stood still, and through the Crystal Ball, V could see the terrified faces of those from the Tiger Claw Gangâ
"Trying to escape?"
With another push on the accelerator, Mackinaw charged fiercely!
The Tiger Claw Gangâs fleet dispersed in panic, but their cars were nowhere near the performance of Mackinaw and V quickly caught upâ
Like a wolf among sheep!
The enemies held their guns and shot frantically, but whether it was HJSH-18 or a split rifle, dreaming of piercing Mackinawâs armor with these rifle calibers was utterly ludicrous!
