Alex was quickly taken out of the car.
But at that moment, sirens suddenly blared, and several police cars quickly appeared.
The man quickly turned his head, then hid behind the car and drew his gun to shoot.
A street firefight ensued, but at this moment, Alex, the big drug lord, secretly squeezed into the car, stomped on the accelerator, and tried to escape alone.
The man reloading his bullets was instantly dumbfounded; his cover was gone...
Then...
Bang, bang, bang!
The police on the other side immediately opened fire, instantly riddling the man with bullets.
The next instant, a chase began, with the police quickly getting into their cars and pursuing Alex.
Bai Ye stood on the rooftop, taking it all in, then said to Jin Sha, "Exciting, isn't it?"
Jin Sha said, "It's exciting, but I still don't know why we're on the roof."
Bai Ye said, "The mission is to rescue Alex, and how do we define a rescue?"
Jin Sha said, "This city isn't real, so there are boundary lines around it. As long as Alex is successfully brought beyond the boundary line, he's considered out of the city, and the mission is complete."
"Precisely," Bai Ye said. "So, the core of this mission isn't rescue."
Jin Sha was confused. "Hmm?"
Bai Ye said, "The core of the mission should be escort. In other words, you treat Alex as a piece of cargo, like ancient caravan escorts. Whoever gets Alex out of this city is the winner. Before getting Alex out of the city, it doesn't matter who has him, but he absolutely cannot be in the hands of the police. The police's objective is to send Alex to prison, and once he's in prison, it becomes significantly more difficult to get him out."
Jin Sha suddenly understood. "You mean we help Alex escape from the police, but we don't need to rush to control Alex right now. Even if someone else makes a move first, we'll still have a chance to snatch him later."
Bai Ye tapped his thumb. "Correct answer."
Jin Sha said, "Then what do we need to do now?"
Bai Ye gestured forward with his chin. "What we need to do is coming right up!"
On the helipad of a building, a police helicopter suddenly appeared and flew forward, intending to track Alex's vehicle from the air.
At that very moment...
Bai Ye raised the Death Strike.
Bai Ye stared through the scope, silently adjusting, and then aimed at the gap in the helicopter's rotor.
Then...
He pulled the trigger!
Bang!
With the sound of the gun, a spark burst from the base of the rotor, but it wasn't a direct hit, instead striking the top of the helicopter.
Even so, the pilot inside the helicopter was startled, and Bai Ye's second shot was already fired!
Clang!
This time, Bai Ye accurately hit the rotor's connection point, and a golden spark bloomed again.
The rotor briefly stalled, then the helicopter shook in the air, and subsequently, began to fall.
Although the rotor resumed normal rotation several meters above the ground, it was too late to ascend.
The helicopter plunged directly into a mall on the side, and then...
Boom!
The outer wall of the mall collapsed, and pedestrians on the street screamed and fled in all directions.
"Done!" Bai Ye picked up his sniper rifle and said to Jin Sha, "In half an hour, meet me at the place we first appeared. Your mission is simple: go to that helicopter and remove the radio and walkie-talkie. Of course, if they're already damaged, forget it."
"Okay!" Jin Sha said, "And you?"
"The transport vehicle was hijacked, and I also destroyed a helicopter," Bai Ye chuckled. "The police won't ignore it, will they? I'll attract their attention so you can get the items."
Jin Sha nodded without further comment and quickly left the rooftop.
Bai Ye stood on the rooftop for a while, then threw out the gacha machine, simultaneously consuming a shard of God Stone.
"A golden gacha!"
God Stone shards were things to be conserved, so even during Forbidden Zone missions, Bai Ye used them sparingly. The ideal outcome was to complete the mission without spending God Stone shards, using them as a last resort only when absolutely necessary.
However, this time was different; the reward was too great.
Even splitting it with Jin Sha, fifty million could be exchanged for fifteen God Stone shards, so Bai Ye was determined to win this mission and didn't need to save any gachas for critical moments.
But, when he opened the golden gacha, Bai Ye almost spat out blood.
GN-001 Exia Solar Reactor Energy (Accessory) (Gold): A genuine GN series unit's drive (Solar Reactor) for the GN-001 Exia unit. This drive (Solar Reactor) is required for the GN-001 Exia unit to operate normally.
At a crucial moment, the golden gacha failed him!
While the golden gacha was one of Bai Ye's trump cards, it wasn't always reliable.
For example, right now, Bai Ye had been tricked.
The so-called GN-001 Exia unit was actually...
A mecha!
Mechas were men's dreams and men's romance.
Furthermore, mechas represented the pinnacle of future weapon technology!
A mecha, besides the main unit, required six to twelve accessories, and all of them, from the main unit to the accessories, were of golden quality.
And here lay the problem!
Bai Ye had received one of the accessories for the GN-001 Exia unit!
Bai Ye looked at the object, about three meters tall, shaped like a metallic turbine, with a face full of speechlessness and sorrow.
What use is a mecha drive accessory to me?
You should have given me the mecha too!
Bai Ye sighed, put away the GN-001 Exia Solar Reactor Energy, and his God Stone shard was wasted.
However, he was only disappointed for a short while.
In his previous life, the gacha machine had accompanied Bai Ye, so Bai Ye naturally knew that using God Stone shards for golden gachas was like gambling.
Just because he had drawn the Xuanyuan Sword from a golden gacha once didn't mean he could do it again.
Bai Ye wasn't sure how many items were in the gacha machine. After all, despite using it countless times in his previous life, Bai Ye had never drawn everything from it. There were often duplicates, or new items would appear, but the probability of drawing useless items was roughly one-third overall.
Therefore, Bai Ye was mentally prepared for this.
Moreover, being disappointed was useless; he had to keep drawing.
However, Bai Ye could no longer use God Stone shards to specify the gacha color.
