Moore Tech mid-level floating car garage.

Luo Yin stayed in the elevator with a cold expression, his eyes were deep, even the closed elevator space didn't bring him much sense of security, and the continuous bad news in his ears made his mood gradually change from peaceful to heavy.

No matter how calm and strategic he was before, in the face of bad news, he was like an ordinary person with anxiety in his heart.

It's been a long time since I've felt this feeling.

Looking at the past, there are few things in the world that can make his mood fluctuate violently for a person like him, who stands at the top of the world.

But in this city, which is known as the freest and most chaotic city in the world, a mercenary who has never heard of it before has actually made himself deflated!

No, you have to be calm, and you must not lose your mind because of this matter.

Luo Yin's slightly distorted expression suddenly calmed down, and the biomonitoring system implanted in his body adjusted his hormone levels and endocrine system in time, allowing him to regain his composure in the blink of an eye.

The elevator doors opened.

As soon as he stepped out of the elevator door, Luo Yin saw that the huge garage floor was brightly lit, and countless floating car managers were running in the floor, as if they had encountered some kind of emergency.

Seeing his arrival, a manager who was waiting in front of the elevator door greeted him and said in a somewhat anxious tone:

"Mr. Luo Yin, your personal floating car has been prepared and can leave at any time, but the situation is a bit urgent now, and we have to implore you to wait a few minutes."

Luo Yin frowned, glanced at the messy garage, and asked sharply, "What happened?" ”

"Because the company building was suddenly attacked, several high-level executives who stayed in the company to work overtime wanted to leave in the floating car, which was fine at first, but now the situation downstairs is not good, and the floating car combat team that came to support us from the outside world has been completely wiped out! The gang of gangsters outside is armed against the air, and if you rush out, your float car will most likely be hit. ”

"Now there are two floating cars that have gone out and been hit by those gangsters with missiles, but fortunately they turned back in time, otherwise there is a high probability that they will crash in the middle."

Luo Yin raised his eyebrows, his expression became gloomy, and he said sternly:

"The solution? Don't tell me you're running around here like ants, just to show me! ”

After all, it is his own private floating car, and Luo Yin naturally knows that this extremely expensive customized floating car is not as good as a military floating car in terms of protection.

He is not an army soldier, let alone a military enthusiast, the floating car is a means of transportation for him, who would install explosion-proof steel plates and armed systems for his means of transportation.

Although Night City is chaotic, it is not a war zone, and even Luo Yin never thought that he would encounter such an incident tonight, let alone these floating car managers.

The manager broke out in a cold sweat, and said in a trembling voice:

"After learning about the situation outside, we immediately loaded your private floating vehicle with an external armed system, as well as a counter-attack device, which can effectively evade surface-to-air strikes, according to our calculations, the anti-aircraft weapons used by those gangsters are very good, for your safety, we ......"

The more Luo Yin listened, the more impatient he became, and when he heard half of it, he directly waved his hand to interrupt the manager's explanation, stared directly at the other party's eyes, and asked seriously:

"I don't want to listen to your nonsense, just tell me the results."

He didn't have time to waste here listening to the explanations of these little staff, as if his status was very cheap, and if it weren't for the fact that he needed the help of the other party in this evacuation, he wouldn't even talk to the managers in front of him for a word.

"Give me 5 more minutes! In just 5 minutes, we're sure to upgrade your float and make sure you never go wrong when you go out! The manager humbly begged.

Luo Yin's eyes squinted slightly, looked at the time bar of the data panel, and said indifferently:

"From now on, if you haven't solved the problem after 5 minutes, then within a second, all of you will be fired on the spot!"

The manager's face turned pale, but he still smiled reluctantly: "Thank you for your willingness to give us this opportunity." ”

Luo Yin didn't bother to waste time with him, and waved his hand to tell him to get out of here.

The management hurried to Luo Yin's floating car.

5 minutes is not long, but for Luo Yin, a character like him who is millions of minutes or more, it is impossible to waste a few minutes for no reason.

His eyes lit up slightly, and he dialed the phone in the command room.

[Hello Mr. Luo Yin, what are the instructions?] 】

On the other end of the phone, the security commander's tone was a little hurried, as if he had just come out of the tense and anxious war, but the next second he was arranged to talk to his superiors to report the situation.

[What's the situation now?] Luo Yin asked.

[The target has reached the 100th floor, and the security forces you assigned, the bounty hunter team, and Mr. Lancelot have all been ambushed there, but Mr. Lancelot wants to make direct contact with the target so that you can delay enough time to abandon the ambush plan. 】

[Well, I see, do what he asks.] Luo Yin nodded.

After all, he is not a professional combat commander, and it is better to leave this kind of work of fighting the enemy and delaying time to be handled by professionals.

Luo Yin is very aware of his strengths and weaknesses, and he also knows that his primary purpose now is to escape, not to point fingers in other people's professional fields.

[I understand that now that Lancelot has made contact with the target, it is expected that he can delay for five to ten minutes...]

In the monitoring command room, the security commander made a few gestures, asking his subordinates to keep an eye on the monitoring screen in case of accidents, and also let them report the situation at any time, and then he walked to the corner, patiently and single-mindedly communicated with Luo Yin, and did not put his eyes on the monitoring screen.

Luo Yin breathed a sigh of relief slightly.

Five to ten minutes, enough time for him to escape the company building in time.

Even if that ink shadow wants to catch up with him in the future, it will not be an easy thing.

[What about the support forces on the ground?] Why haven't they arrived yet? Doesn't the city's police department care about that? Luo Yin continued to ask.

On the other end of the phone, the commander's face was obviously stiffened, but he still stubbornly reported:

[We have reported the situation to the NCPD of the city police station as soon as possible, and they have also dispatched a police team in time, but the results are not very good? 】

Luo Yin frowned, but he was not surprised, and asked rhetorically: [What happened? 】

[The traffic arteries near the company are blocked by some gang members, and there are a lot of dangerous goods on the road, and it will be difficult for them to get here for a while...] explained the commander.

[Why not use a robot to open the circuit?] Luo Yin was puzzled.

[Listening to the people of the NCPD, they also thought about using robots to dredge the road, but those people are quite shameless, everyone has a member chip of the trauma team on their bodies, and they take turns shooting through their thighs so that they can summon the trauma team over, round after round, there is no time to stop at all, and the NCPD does not want to confront the trauma team head-on, so it has been dragged down. The Commander said with a dry voice.

Luo Yin was silent and fell into a brief contemplation.

After a while, he sighed, found a Chinese word in the database loaded by the processor in his brain, half sighed and half praised:

[Very good means, I always suspected that this Mr. Moying was from East Asia, but now it seems that most of it is, in Huaguo's words, this is to drive the wolf and devour the tiger. 】

Just when Luo Yin wanted to continue to ask, he suddenly heard a busy tone from the other end of the phone, and it seemed that something unexpected had happened in the command room.

What happened? Luo Yin asked in a cold tone.

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a long time, and finally the commander's voice was shocked and desperate:

[Sir... The team sent to block the target.... It's all gone, and we've lost access to the 100th layer of the network.]

In an instant, Luo Yin felt that his heart was almost about to stop.

His hands and feet began to feel a little cold, and he quickly took a few deep breaths to calm his mood, and the biological prosthetic body in his body also adjusted his state in time.

[Lancelot can't hold on for even a minute? Luo Yin calmed down and asked.

[Yes, sir.] 】

[Where is the current position of the ink shadow?] 】

[We have lost the network access to the 88th-112th floors... But he was nowhere to be found on the floor below, and he didn't continue to run down. The commander said.

Didn't come down? Luo Yin couldn't help but fall into thought.

Obviously, by taking over network access, their side has undoubtedly lost control of layers 88-112.

And considering that Ink Shadow has a floating car, although he doesn't know the model of the floating car for the time being, since he can quietly approach the building and has not been discovered by the detection device, let's count the floating car as the top model.

Now that they have obtained the network permission, it means that the air defense facilities on the rooftop have all fallen, and the opponent's floating car will definitely take the opportunity to land on the rooftop, and only in this way can they have the opportunity to intercept their floating vehicle.

The staircase leading to the rooftop has collapsed, and Murray has to take the elevator to get to the rooftop, not at his own speed.

At the speed of the elevator, it would have taken him at least a minute or two to get there.

In this way, Ink Shadow has only two options:

Either rush to the rooftop in person and chase him in a floating car;

Either trust your teammates and let your teammates chase him in a floating car, or kill them all the way.

Based on Luo Yin's character analysis of Mo Ying, he believes that the other party will inevitably choose the former way.

Therefore, the best way to deal with it at the moment is to wait and see what happens.

If Moying is already on the rooftop and has taken the floating car, he is now taking the floating car out, which is undoubtedly the other party's way.

After all, Rauna's accident is still vivid in my mind, that monster-like guy has the ability to hijack planes in the air!

As long as the other party's figure has not appeared under the surveillance screen, they will not move.

In terms of time-consuming, the Ink Shadow side will definitely not be able to consume them.

Just when Luo Yin decided on a strategy, a voice came from the other end of the phone:

[Sir!] Also note! The target has appeared on the 88th floor, and is heading up the stairs to the floor of the float garage! It's blazing fast! Please evacuate as we send the remaining security personnel to carry out a suicide attack to buy you time! 】

Luo Yin was stunned again.

Instead of choosing to take a floating car, Ink Shadow came towards his position?

The other party actually chose to trust his teammates and gave them the task of killing them?

Or is there something special about that floating car, which is capable of destroying its own floating car in the air?

Just when Luo Yin fell into thought, the management finally came over, sweating profusely and obviously tired.

"Mr. Luo Yin, your floating car has been refitted, please hurry over, we have vacated the take-off passage for you."

His voice interrupted Luo Yin's thoughts.

Luo Yin hesitated for a moment, and finally walked towards his floating car.

However, when he saw the appearance of his private floating car, he couldn't help but be stunned.

These upgrades, what to say...

It's like a tank with wire grids, and then it's said that these barbed wires can effectively block RPG attacks.

It's also like a sniper covered with turf, which is said to be an excellent camouflage that makes it difficult for the enemy to spot the sniper's traces with the naked eye.

】

Although these "upgrades" may seem unreliable, they are actually effective.

Nowadays, Luo Yin's private floating car is also roughly the same, the floating car that used to be smooth as a mirror and like an elegant swan is now transformed into a "dumb duck".

Anti-tracking metal armor temporarily installed with rough welding technology, a thermal decoy honeycomb launcher placed on the bottom of the floating vehicle, and a thickened and enlarged exhaust hole at the tail... Every renovation is imbued with utilitarian style

Seeing Luo Yin, who was a little stunned, the managers on the side couldn't help but explain:

"Mr. Luo Yin, although your floating car doesn't look beautiful now, I dare to vouch for it with my life, these upgrades and modifications can definitely ensure your personal safety."

"Your float is the best private float in the world, it's like a great sword embryo that can be forged into a sharp sword with just a few throws and a makeover, and we didn't have time to give it a beautiful finish, but it's absolutely reliable."

Luo Yin was silent for a while, and suddenly asked:

"If there is a military float in pursuit, will this float keep me safe?"

The manager was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly replied with a smile:

"Absolutely 100% reliable, if you want to destroy a floating car, you must have a strong enough attack, and our modification is just right to make your floating car avoid these attacks."

"And what if someone jumps outside the cabin, opens the gap with a thermal energy cutting device, and jumps into the car?" Luo Yin asked.

Management: "......"

What the hell is this question.

Will there be such a sabi in the world, capable of such a risky thing?

"On this issue... Forgive my ignorance, sir, I haven't thought about it, but if you're really worried, we might be able to install an induction grid in the armor of the shell, but it's a big project, if you can give us enough time..."

Luo Yin sighed and waved his hand:

"Forget it, let's use it first, there's no time."

He had been talking to the commander, and on the other end of the line, the middle-aged man was desperately urging him to leave, saying that the target had broken through all layers of defense and was hurrying towards his position.

That guy doesn't have all the monitoring rights of the company building, and if he wants to find out his location accurately, he has to kill him layer by layer.

Luo Yin understood that Mo Ying was forcing himself to make a choice.

Or wait for him to kill in front of him.

Either take advantage of the current escape, the other party must have arranged other means, intending to destroy their own floating car in the air.

This is a conspiracy, but Luo Yin has to make a choice.

"How many untaken floats are there in the garage at the moment?" Luo Yin suddenly asked the manager.

The management staff was stunned, and said, "There are five cars in total." ”

"Arrange for all the floats to take off with me and evacuate to all positions, I need their help to confuse the enemy!" Luo Yin commanded.

It's nighttime.

All the floating vehicles took off, and even if the gangsters on the ground had ground-to-air means, it was impossible to find out exactly which floating car they were in.

But if the other party also arranges for a floating car to chase after him, then he can only hope that these modifications are reliable enough to ensure his safe evacuation.

The manager's face was a little ugly, after all, five floating cars were a lot of property, and his job was to be responsible for maintaining these properties, but now Luo Yin's order was like throwing out a few pieces of garbage at random.

However, after all, he still had to obey Luo Yin's orders and arrange for his subordinates to start the remaining five floating cars.

......

Soon, a total of six floating cars began to fly out of the garage in succession, like geese flying south in a line.

Several anti-aircraft missiles quickly flew from the roof of another building, hitting two floating vehicles with precision.

Being in his floating car, Luo Yin breathed a sigh of relief for a while.

The modifications of those maintenance personnel were reliable enough, at least his floating car was not hit by the lock.

Since it can shield the anti-air locking of the gangsters on the ground, it also means that the anti-air means of the Ink Shadow side are just like that, perhaps as the management said, even if their floating car is advanced, it will be difficult to destroy his private floating car in the air.

It seems that this time, it should be safe.

Luo Yin sighed heavily, opened the wine cabinet in the car, took out a few bottles of wine from the freezer, and enjoyed them alone.

However, before he could rejoice, the commander's anxious voice sounded again in the communication channel:

[Mr. Luo Yin, we have lost the position of the target, and he is now gone!] 】

The untouchable fright made Luo Yin spit out the wine in his mouth, but he didn't have time to care about his gaffe.

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

Didn't Ink Shadow kill indiscriminately in the floor? What else does he want to do?

Even if you want to go up to the rooftop to take the floating car, it will take a minute or two to take the elevator.

And a minute or two was enough for him to escape the Night City in a floating car!

The other end of the line quickly answered his doubts.

[No, no, he didn't disappear, but ran to the 89th floor, where there was no surveillance!] 】

[He broke the glass, he jumped off the building!]

】

Luo Yin was stunned for a moment, and immediately ordered the on-board intelligent AI:

"Turn on the external monitoring of the floating car, what happened?"

Soon, accompanied by a gentle female voice, the display screen in the car showed a scene:

Under the moonlight, a masked man smashed the windows of the building's floors and leaped into the sky outside, like a bird with wings spread.

However, in mid-air, a manticore-tailed float that had been hovering here for a long time parked smoothly near the building.

The thrusters on the man's feet spewed flames, and he jumped vigorously in mid-air, and finally reached out and grabbed the floor of the side door of the floating car, and turned over and jumped into the floating car!

Now, Luo Yin finally understands.

He made a mistake.

A fatal mistake!

Such a monster, how could he figure out the other party's behavior with the thinking of a normal person?
