Harry Potter, the savior of Night City

"Immediately imprison them! Immediately imprison them! Immediately imprison them!"

Harry ran towards the door, wand in hand, constantly casting spells behind the soldiers and security guards to steal their backsides. The people at the front started fighting and realized something was wrong. Why was their firepower getting weaker and weaker? Just as they were about to turn around to take a look, a spell hit them directly in the face, and they were forced to stand there as punishment.

"Stop fighting, run!" Harry shouted to Mann and the others as he pushed through the crowd.

"Harry's back, let's get out of here!" Mann didn't mince words and immediately called out to all the team members before rushing toward the door of Comtau.

"roar!"

The genetically engineered soldiers who were initially imprisoned by Harry had broken free of their restraints. As if to vent their frustration, they tore off their facial prosthetics, let out a roar, and then threw their prosthetic faces to the ground. The wings on their backs, which were half-armored, flapped, and the thrusters on their legs spewed out flames. Their three-meter-tall bodies actually took flight, flying towards Harry and his companions like eagles hunting their prey.

"Damn, it really can fly!" Rebecca's two short legs kept swinging back and forth, almost forming a circle.

"They probably won't be able to fly for long. With that build, just getting up would take a ton of energy!" Pila waved his arms frantically, wishing he had more legs. "At most 15 minutes, they'll be exhausted!"

"Tell Falco this later, whether we can shake him off or not depends entirely on him!" Mann shouted to Pila, as they could already see Falco's car.

Falco had obviously seen them too, and immediately started the car, quickly driving towards Mann and the others. He then drifted to a stop with the rear of the car facing them. The fastest one, Halliara, jumped in through the car door, followed by Pila, Mann... and finally Rebecca. Just as Rebecca grabbed Pilaara's long arm, Falco slammed on the gas pedal. The Chevrolet's tires screeched against the ground, billowing black smoke, before it shot off like an arrow.

As soon as the group of guys got a vehicle, the genetically engineered soldiers chasing behind them increased the power of their thigh thrusters and the flapping frequency of their wings on their backs also increased.

"Falco! Just don't let them catch up for 15 minutes!" Mann helped Pila pull Rebecca into the car, then slammed the back door shut and shouted to Falco.

"I know...damn it, those guys are speeding up again!" Falco was about to respond when he saw in the rearview mirror that the soldiers were flying even faster. Their Chevrolets were already at maximum speed, but the soldiers' flight speed was clearly faster than their ground-running group.

"I'll hold them off for a bit!" Harry's wand materialized again, and with one hand he opened the car door, firing a petrification charm and a headband at the soldiers in the sky. "Hold on to me, I don't want to fall!"

Mann reached out and pressed Harry's shoulder, Rebecca grabbed Harry's waist, Pila began operating the military-grade drone he had bought at great expense to interfere with the soldiers, Dorio reclined her seat in front, crawled to the front, grabbed a guillotine, and leaned out to fire at the group of soldiers.

Several soldiers who seemed fairly intelligent learned to dodge Harry's spells after being tricked twice. However, a few less intelligent soldiers either took Harry's spells in their faces, were forced to stand at attention in mid-air, and crashed while spinning. Others were distracted by Pila's drones and, like cats that had found their favorite toys, chased after them in the air, causing them to collide with several soldiers. The soldiers who were hit were not to be outdone and tried to ram the drones with their own bodies, resulting in chaos in the air.

But among these soldiers, there was one who refused to let Harry and his friends' car go. It was Number 5, the one who had been controlled by Harry four times and tormented to tears by the disgusting mechanism. Even though it had a low IQ, it still managed to learn how to dodge spells. Its eyes were fixed on the Chevrolet on the ground, and it kept increasing its speed. Behind it were a few relatively intelligent ones who thought for a moment and followed Number 5 to hunt down Harry and his friends' car. When Harry and Dorio kept shooting at them, they also raised their arms, either revealing projectile launchers or their hands that had been modified into guns, and fired at the Chevrolet.

"Damn, are their shots really that good?!" Falco kept changing the direction of the car to dodge the projectiles coming from the sky.

"These damn projectiles have all been modified to track targets!" Harry leaned back into the car, dodging the incoming bullets.

Seven soldiers in the sky were still relentlessly pursuing them, and the biotechnology pursuers also arrived at this time. However, compared to the gene-blended soldiers, the biotechnology pursuers were pure waste. Lucy and Qiwei finally had a chance to prove themselves. They threw the emergency braking puppets onto the pursuers' vehicles as if they were free. The pursuers were useless except for consuming some RAM.

"Falco! Can you go any faster? Those guys are catching up!" Harry shouted to Falco. The genetically engineered soldiers were already moving as fast as vehicles, and the leader was even faster than Chevrolet.

"I've practically floored the accelerator, this is the fastest this car can go!" Falco said through gritted teeth. He was already drenched in sweat, his eyes fixed on the road ahead, ignoring the navigation system. Their car was already in forward four-way mode, a fully armored SUV reaching speeds of 280 mph, the engine belching thick black smoke, and the sound of overheated tires screeching against the ground sending chills down one's spine.

"Old man, hurry up!" Falco gripped the steering wheel tightly, as if he wanted to crush it. He pressed the accelerator hard and dared not let go for a moment. Sparks were already flying from the Chevrolet's engine. The car, which had already been damaged by the NCPD, was now being forcibly overloaded. Every part of the car was screaming, and the vehicle explosion alarm started to sound intermittently.

The soldiers had flown to within 40 meters of Chevrolet. The one in the lead, number 5, laughed. He was already 10 meters behind the vehicle. He raised his hand, revealing the projectile launcher, and fired a shot at the rear of the car. Harry immediately slammed the car door shut. The projectile hit the rear door, leaving a huge dent in front of him. He tried to open it again but found the door stuck and couldn't be pushed open.

Number 5 smiled even more broadly, and once again aimed the projectile launcher at the rear door, firing another projectile that hit it. The Chevrolet's rear door was completely stuck there, unable to fall down or be opened. To make matters worse, the car, which was already close to being totaled, experienced all sorts of problems after being hit by two projectiles. At high speed, parts kept falling off the bottom of the car, and coolant was dripping out, while the four wheels kept twitching.

"Damn it!!!" Falco roared, "The speed is dropping any further!"

The speedometer readings slowly dropped from 282 to 280, then 276... The car had reached its limit, and the bullets and projectiles from the pursuers behind were only adding insult to injury.

"Old buddy, give it your all! If you don't accelerate soon, we're going to die!" Falco kept shaking the steering wheel. He was so desperate that he started communicating with the car. The atmosphere inside the car became extremely tense. Everyone knew that this time, they were probably really going to die here.

"Bang!"

A muffled thud came from the roof of the vehicle. Number 5 was clinging to the roof of their vehicle, and the other soldiers were less than 20 meters away from them.

"Bang, bang, bang," dull thuds came from the roof of the vehicle as Number 5 kept hammering the roof with a sledgehammer, trying to open the vehicle.

"It's over, this is the end, I'm completely finished." Pila collapsed, her body limp.

"I never imagined he'd die in a fleeing car," Mann sighed, clutching the Zhuo Shi in his hand.

The others in the car had nothing to say. The situation was what it was; unless a miracle happened, there was absolutely no way to escape.

"After being with you for so many years, it's not too tragic to die inside you in the end." Falco's foot was still on the gas pedal, but the speed had dropped to 240. More and more soldiers were clinging to the vehicle, trying to pry open the metal can.

Harry sat up, put his wand away, and suddenly remembered that his teleportation ability seemed to be upgradable. He immediately looked at the teleportation energy bar, hoping to gain an ability that would allow him to carry all his teammates.

"Travel energy is full, you can travel now."

"Travel Level 2, unlocked ability: interdimensional communication."

"Heh, you son of a bitch." Harry chuckled, flicked the middle finger at the roof of the car with his right hand, and then reached to the side to rub Rebecca's head again. Rebecca didn't resist; instead, she leaned her head over to him.

"Let me tell you, we died because we were helping you. If there really is a hell or something, I'll be watching you like a ghost!" Rebecca let Harry rub her head, but she still cursed under her breath.

Beyond the universe, several strange spheres of light watched the scene unfold before them and conversed amongst themselves.

The largest golden sphere spoke to the red sphere, "That kid is your chosen one, aren't you going to try and find a way to get him?"

"Help my ass! Look at my current state, how am I supposed to help? This isn't some magical world guarded by that old man. If I were at my peak, I could have used my power to get through, but now? I'm just a mind left. Don't you know how thick the defenses are in this damn world? What can I do besides worry?" The red orb said angrily to the golden orb.

"Who told you to use your power? I mean, you should bring that machine over. This world is highly compatible with Him; He can help you." The golden orb of light sounded somewhat disappointed.

"That machine? I'm not going." The red orb turned its body away.

"If you don't want to beg that machine, how about begging me instead?" A pink orb of light floated next to the red orb. "This world is quite compatible with me, isn't it?"

The red orb slammed into the pink orb, sending it flying. Then it turned around and shouted, "Robot, do me a favor!" ("Ah, I'd rather beg Him than me~")

As soon as he finished speaking, a brownish-yellow glowing gear appeared in front of him. "What are you doing?"

The words came out in fits and starts. The red ball shook itself and said, "Isn't this kid also your chosen one? He's about to be sent, but I can't probe in with my power. I called you for help."

"How strange, you actually know how to ask for favors?" The gear returned to its normal voice, speaking in a teasing tone, though it still carried a hint of mechanicalness.

"Are you going to help or not?"

"understood."

The gear slowly floated to the large screen displaying Harry and his friends' current situation. Its body glowed, and wisps of brown light emanated from it, passing through the screen and landing on the nearly damaged Chevrolet.

"Why the hell did you give that piece of junk power?" the red orb demanded, shoving its way into the gear.

"Just watch, you brute." Gear didn't want to waste words with him and turned to look at the screen.

"Crappy machine." The red orb stopped talking and turned to look at the screen.

－－－－－－－－

"Crack." A large hole was smashed in the roof of the vehicle. Number 5 glanced into the hole, saw the people inside, smiled, raised his left arm, and the projectile launcher popped out, ready to fire at the vehicle.

At that moment, an invisible brown light seeped into the car from the engine at an extremely fast speed. With a loud "boom," the car, which was slowing down, suddenly shuddered. Number 5, who was standing on the roof, lost his balance and was knocked down by the tremor. The projectile launcher on his arm also retracted, and he had to fly up again to find a place to grab on. The soldiers who were clinging to the car body behind him were also shaken off their balance by the tremor and had no choice but to let go of the car and fly into the air to chase after it.

"Holy crap, what's going on!" Falco exclaimed, as the car's speed, which had been decreasing, began to steadily increase again.

"Holy crap, Falco, when did you change this? That's awesome!" Mann laughed, excitedly pulling down Dorio's chair and kissing her. He had even thought of what to write on his own epitaph, though he probably wouldn't be able to put it on.

"I don't know, he just suddenly..." Falco was also confused. Did this car have a second stage? It wasn't mentioned when he bought it.

"Falco, you said you didn't know how when you were modifying the car, I'm going to give you a good beating when we get back!" Pila was almost crying, even though there were no tears in her prosthetic eye.

Harry was stunned. He could actually sense that the car had emotions, just like his prosthetic body. Right now, the car's emotions were "anger," "fortunateness," and "sadness."

"What's going on?"

"...Let go!" Rebecca removed Harry's hands from her head, put her hands behind her head, draped her legs over Harry, and lay straight back in the chair. "Damn, I thought I was going to die."

Lucy and Qiwei, who were lying at home, breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the team really couldn't escape this time.

At this moment, Number 5 climbed up again, and everyone's hearts were in their throats. They had their weapons ready, but soon they didn't have time to be nervous anymore.

The vehicle had long since reached its maximum speed, but it was still climbing faster: 280, 320, 360... Finally, the vehicle's speed locked at 600 mph. The intermittent explosion warning device inside the car stopped, the engine flames went out, and the trembling tires stopped shaking.

"Falco, this, isn't this too fast..." Mann's massive body was already being pressed against the car by a powerful force, not to mention Harry and the others. Pila was holding onto Mann's arm tightly, and if she loosened her grip even slightly, it would be as if she were about to crash into the back door. Harry was clinging to the seat with one hand, Rebecca was holding onto Harry's waist tightly, Dorio was completely pressed against the back of the seat and couldn't sit up at all, and Number 5 on the roof was also clinging to the roof tightly, the strong wind making it impossible for him to open his mouth.

"I...I don't know!" Falco was also pressed firmly against the back of the seat. Although he was still holding the steering wheel, he could feel that the car was on autopilot.

Behind the vehicle, the soldiers watched as it sped up faster and faster, but they couldn't catch up no matter how hard they tried. Finally, they landed on the ground, their energy nearly depleted. Then, they turned and saw a large crowd gathered on the human-shaped path. Overwhelmed by hunger, they forgot their training; licking their lips, they walked towards the crowd...

...........

The car slowed down, and finally, after half an hour of frantic driving, the Chevrolet came to a stop in a corner of Badlands. The doors opened automatically, the front seats ejected Falco and Dorio to one side, the jammed rear door detached itself, and the two opposing seats bounced backward inexplicably, launching Harry and the others, along with Harry's left arm, off the road. The Chevrolet then drove forward a few more steps on its own, and then…

"Beep, beep, beep..." After the explosion warning system inside the car beeped a few times, "Boom!" A huge explosion rang out, and the towering flames engulfed the car roof, which had already been dazed by the wind. The flames, which would not have caused much damage to Number 5, melted his armor and burned him to ashes.

"Damn it..." Falco exclaimed, sitting on the ground watching the exploding Chevrolet.

"Awesome..." Pila leaned against Mann and exclaimed in admiration.

"Holy shit, holy shit, they escaped!" Mann lay back and collapsed on the ground, exclaiming repeatedly.

"We're fucking awesome!" Harry leaned back, exclaiming in surprise that they had actually escaped.

Everyone in the team was shouting and celebrating their survival...

"How about it?" Gear tilted its body and said disdainfully to the red orb.

"You're so great, fine." The red orb turned its body away, refusing to pay any more attention to Him.
