The weapons players prepared beforehand were practically useless; machine guns couldn’t hit the target, even if they did, they couldn’t break through the enemy’s defenses. Rocket launchers were impossible to hit the floating cars driven by professional drivers; a slight dodge and the rockets would merely graze them.
Jianxue panicked at the sight
"Quick, dodge! Dodge!"
"If it doesn’t work, open the bomb bay, throw all the gas tanks out! Jump out of the car!!!"
The frontmost floating car was directly hit by Huang Ban’s rocket, exploding into fireworks in mid-air, with the players onboard having no time to jump out.
The other player drivers continued to desperately maneuver their floating cars, trying to evade the imminent attacks in any way they could.
Among them was their good buddy, who was most determined, fiercely pulling the control levers, attempting to dive bomb a tactic he’d seen on battlefields. Chapters fırst released on NoveI~Fire.net
But the vehicle beneath him couldn’t withstand such a move, already a flimsy inferior product, it suddenly made a crunching sound.
Holding the two broken levers, he said to Jianxue who was still observing outside in front
"Uh... Jianxue, do we have any spare ones?"
Jianxue felt baffled at these words, turning around to see his eyes widened.
"Couldn’t you be more gentle?!"
His good buddy chuckled foolishly, "Sorry, what now?"
Jianxue sneered coldly.
He’s a chemist, not a mechanic, how would he know what to do?
At this moment, the floating car without his good buddy’s control started to move erratically.
Its six engines roared ferociously, the tail flames suddenly extending and changing color, the fuel gauge dropping faster.
The entire floating car suddenly burst into speed faster than before, flying wildly in the air, with Jianxue and his good buddy inside being knocked around, their brains nearly scrambled.
In its erratic movement, several rockets barely missed, and the only one that hit merely blew out the rear-left engine, causing the car’s flight to become even more chaotic, spinning uncontrollably like a top.
Swaying Jianxue tightly clung to a rod, shouting at his good buddy above him
"Open the bomb bay! Open the bomb bay, let’s jump out and blow up with Huang Ban!"
"Can’t open it! Seems stuck!"
"What about the door?"
"The door’s stuck too!"
All that can be said is that the inferior product taught them a lesson.
If those gas tanks weren’t tied in place, they might’ve been crushed by the metal pieces.
At this moment, others are more desperate than they are.
Because Huang Ban’s agents on the ground terrifiedly found that erratic floating car flying the Brownian motion had already charged past Huang Ban’s floating cars, closing in on Ganbi Mansion!
The security chief was jumping around anxiously in the control room
"Shoot it down! Quickly, shoot it down!"
The floating car driver watching the uncontrolled floating car headed towards Ganbi Mansion hesitated and said
"Sir, attacking now risks hitting the building, confirm launch rockets?"
The security chief now felt in despair.
If these floating cars were attacking the city center, Huang Ban Tower’s anti-air matrix could easily destroy them.
But this is Ganbi Mansion.
As a five-star hotel without strategic importance, it focused more on internal defense, how could it install anti-air missiles!
Even if the defense system was activated now, it’d likely be too late.
They couldn’t even predict where this floating car would crash into Ganbi Mansion.
"Evacuate everyone in the building quickly, let them into the safety passage or basement to hide!"
Those relaxed Night City rich folks and government officials had already panicked at the first exploding floating car.
They ran out of pools and villas one by one, in a disheveled state as pathetic as possible, their expressions indistinguishable from those of regular people fleeing a fire.
The inside of the building was even more chaotic, ladies were screaming in terror, their expensive and luxurious high heels and gowns turned into obstacles, easily thrown down if they were careless.
Former identities meant nothing in face of survival crisis, pushed over with no one to help, unluckily stamped on by others, face and body covered in shoe prints.
Finally, under the desperate watch of all agents, that uncontrolled floating car crashed right in the middle of Ganbi Mansion.
The tempered glass, designed to withstand large caliber bullets, crumbled like paper before the near ten-ton metal mass, easily shattered into debris.
The floating car crashed onto the floor, torn in half by the immense force, with the compressed fuel tank exploding, engulfing the entire floating car.
As for Jianxue and his good buddy, they were already knocked unconscious.
The gas tanks, freed by inertia, either crashed into the building or followed the other burning half of the floating car downwards.
Then, the waist of this famous Night City hotel bloomed a fiery flower from the Watson District, intensely shaking fragments of the outer glass curtain.
Viewed from afar, it looked like a wounded giant, its waist oozing burning blood.
Other floating cars also dropped most of their gas tanks before being hit by Huang Ban’s rockets.
Scattered propane dragged the tranquil Huang Ban Bay into the blaze.
This disaster sparked by man-made calamity didn’t care if you’re a capitalist, how much money, how much wealth.
At this moment, players witnessing everything have raised a thunderous cheer in the channel.
