Marvel: The Imposter Inventor

Chapter 54 Car Chase
"Om-"

The car engine emitted a deafening roar.

The tires rubbed wildly against the ground, kicking up thick white smoke.

The smell of burnt tires mixed with the lingering gunpowder smoke from the gun barrels swirled and filled the carriage, assaulting our noses and mouths.

Just the instant the gear lever is pushed into gear.

A large, armored mechanical hand suddenly emerged from the carriage and grabbed Dunshan's arm.

Along with Thresh, whose magazine was already empty, they grabbed both of them and forcibly dragged them into the carriage.

next moment.

"boom--"

The engine of this unremarkable-looking news van, which had been suppressed for so long, finally broke free and roared like a wild beast.

The car shot off like an arrow, the roar of its engine exploding in the night.

The chassis skimmed across the ground, the gust of air it kicked up leaving dust and smoke trailing behind.

Samira and Green Bull clung tightly to the handrails inside the car, one on each side, completely ignoring the possibility of being thrown out of the carriage.

He raised the gun with one hand and frantically pulled the trigger, spraying bullets at the vehicles that were right behind him.

It wasn't just Luca's side that was launching the attack.

The gangsters who were chasing from behind were also raising their guns to fight back.

However, the shots fired by these individuals, whose quality varied greatly, were clearly less lethal than their foul-mouthed curses while they were moving at high speed.

Seven or eight people in the three closest pickup trucks opened fire simultaneously.

In the end, fewer than a handful of bullets actually landed on the news van.

Even so, to prevent his teammates from being hit by stray bullets, Dunshan, who was still lying in the carriage and hadn't gotten up yet, still yelled at the driver in front of him.

"Wrench, protective plates #1 and #2!"

Upon hearing the sound, the driver, who was concentrating on driving, immediately switched to holding the steering wheel with one hand and tapping the button next to the dashboard twice with the other.

The next moment, at the very back of the carriage, a black metal plate extended from both the roof and the chassis, covering most of the carriage.

Only a few observation windows and firing ports with good visibility were left.

Just as the two protective plates were secured, two 'clang clang' sounds of bullets hitting their targets came from the outside.

Even Thresh, who has seen his fair share of battles, broke out in a cold sweat.

There was no other way; he was currently the person on the outermost side of the entire carriage. If the protective barrier had been raised even a fraction of a second slower, those two bullets would most likely have landed on him.

However, it was precisely at the same moment that the enemy's two bullets hit.

One of the three pickup trucks closest to the group behind suddenly had its tire burst.

The vehicle, which was already continuing to move, suddenly veered to the side, directly knocking off the main road along with another pickup truck that was traveling alongside it.

The immense force of the impact instantly flung the unprotected gangsters off the two pickup trucks.

Judging from their tumbling "diving" posture, they were clearly not going to survive.

However, as the two vehicles were separated from the pursuit due to the accident, more pursuers immediately followed.

"Haha~ Tarantula, did you hit it? Well done!"

Knowing he hadn't shot at the tire, Green Bull immediately laughed and praised Samira.

However, Samira, whom he pointed to, quickly shook her head.

However, she didn't need to speak; the voice in the earpiece had already given the answer. "It's me." Chang Gong's icy voice seemed capable of cooling down even the most intense chase.

"This is the last shot. You're out of firing range. I'm retreating!"

"Understood. Be careful during the evacuation," Dunshan said, having just stood up.

After speaking for a long time, Chang Gong immediately hung up the phone after hearing Dunshan's confirmation. He then disassembled his guns, Nikon tripod, director's stool, and other items, categorizing them and putting them into his cello case.

In fact, if Longbow's preparations for this mission hadn't been specifically for covert sniping in the city at night, and instead he had been given a heavy sniper rifle like the Barrett or KSVK designed for vehicles, he could have accomplished much more.

Of course, the ability to shoot out the tires of a high-speed vehicle from 500 meters away, causing two pickup trucks to overturn, is enough to demonstrate the capabilities of the Longbow.

Chang Gong's expression remained unchanged as he watched the flames still burning in the distance.

'The warriors will surely break through the encirclement with glory, while I will walk alone in the darkness!'

Okay, let's leave aside the longbow that evacuated alone and turn our attention back to the news van.

Although the longbow's last shot took away two enemy vehicles, more cars continued to follow like a tide.

Dunshan, who had just changed his magazine, stepped forward, patted Green Bull on the shoulder, took over his firing window, and shouted orders to drown out the continuous gunfire.

"Green Bull, get the bomb ready! Thresh! Don't change the magazine! Just load the belt!"

"Wrench, watch out for the intersection ahead. This is Hell's Kitchen, and someone could intercept us from the front at any moment!"

After shouting, Dunshan fired three more rounds.

However, perhaps because several vehicles had been blown up and overturned in succession, the pursuers behind them had learned their lesson and were basically making erratic maneuvers.

While this would slow down their pursuit, it also significantly reduced the probability of Dunshan and the others hitting their targets.

At that moment, Wrench, who was driving, noticed a convoy of jeeps speeding toward them from a distance and immediately roared in anger.

"Turn! Hold on tight!"

After yelling, Wrench didn't have time to check if his teammates had heard him.

I floored the accelerator until I reached the corner, then lightly tapped the brakes repeatedly.

At the same time, he kept turning the steering wheel sharply with both hands.

The entire news van successfully turned around the intersection, drawing a huge arc.

At this point, the car body was tilted at an angle of nearly 45 degrees, with the right wheel completely suspended in the air, and only the two left tires still rubbing violently against the ground.

Then, with a loud 'clang,' the left side of the news van struck a lamppost on the side of the road before straightening itself again.

With a 'bang,' all four wheels touched the ground again, and then the engine accelerated forward once more.

The people inside the car were thrown about as it rose and fell.

Fortunately, thanks to the timely warning from the wrench, the worst-case scenario of the gun accidentally discharging was avoided.

Inside the carriage, Big White, who had been clinging to the machine gun turret, noticed that everyone was swaying and about to fall.

He immediately reached out to support Luca and the Green Bull, who was closest to it, and gently gave them some instructions.

"Be careful, you might hurt yourself!" (●—●)

As he spoke, Big White extended his deflated hand and sprayed some wound spray on Green Bull, who had some minor abrasions that he hadn't noticed before.

However, while the news van experienced some minor disruptions, it has since returned to a smooth ride.

The cars chasing behind weren't so lucky.
