Chapter 1240: Fully Automatic and Integrated, and Stealthy Switch
It had only been 20 seconds since the main mercenary force started fighting Luke, and more than 100 of their comrades had collapsed around the pit.
The remaining 100 or so hired guns were completely frightened. They no longer had the courage to fight and simply scattered.
50% of their side went down in less than half a minute; only a lunatic would continue fighting!
While they worked hard for money, nobody would die for it.
Unfortunately, they had made the most severe mistake tonight — illegal demolition, illegal construction, and nearly destroying a certain person’s little nest.
Throwing out bait only to be almost slapped in the face by a fish tail — a certain person hadn’t experienced this before in his life, and he flew into a rage out of humiliation.
So, as some of the remaining mercenaries poured out of the giant hole in the back of the apartment building and fled, Luke chased them.
At that moment, he was no longer holding Glocks, but had picked up an AR-15 and an MP7 off the dead mercenaries, which had a much better range than a Glock.
The hired guns who had run dozens of meters started to fall from the front; whoever ran the farthest were the first to have their heads blown up.
Except for the few who died the quickest, the other fleeing thugs could only watch with wide eyes as their comrades’ heads exploded.
The further they ran, the more they saw. After all their comrades in front died, it was their turn to black out forever.
Luke didn’t stop.
As he opened fire, he swiftly approached the Hudson River. Naturally, the thugs didn’t run in this direction. Instead, they split up and ran left and right, but were still shot on both sides.
When Luke ran out of bullets, he dropped the guns and picked up more from the ground and fired again.
Changing clips or whatever was too troublesome for him right now. It was better to just pick up what was left behind and use it to kill these d*mn guys!
At that moment, a black SUV rushed over on the road next to the river. The car stopped dozens of meters away. The doors opened, and two people with guns shouted, “NYPD! Freeze! Drop your weapons!”
Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa!
Luke and Selina, who had just finished shouting out NYPD’s standard greeting, decisively opened fire. The seven or eight mercenaries who were only focused on running and didn’t pay attention to them were immediately killed.
In any case, there was a camera in the car. When suspects were killed, the footage evidence definitely had to be handed over.
These mercenaries were all holding submachine guns and rifles. Two of them weren’t holding guns, but had pistols strapped to their chests. They wore fierce expressions and didn’t stop moving, so could only be killed on the spot.
Then, Selina glanced at Luke and tilted her head at his clone in a silent question.
Luke blinked but didn’t put his pistol down. Instead, he held up his badge with his free hand. “NYPD. Drop your weapons and put your hands behind your head and wait to be searched.”
Selina was lost for words.
The clone immediately dropped the two submachine guns it had been holding and raised its hands as it faced the car.
Suddenly, the clone chuckled and then… ran off.
Selina was lost for words.
Luke unhurriedly picked up the walkie-talkie in the car and connected to dispatch. “Dispatch, 12th Street and 49th Street. A large number of armed assailants were engaged in a chaotic fight earlier, which has already stopped. Please send someone to block off the scene and maintain order.”
Selina rolled her eyes and despaired at Luke’s enthusiastic performance.
Did he have to go that far? He specially gave those three guys the limelight in front of the car’s camera, and even gave NYPD’s standard greeting. He didn’t want to miss the show at all!
But no matter how she criticized him, she didn’t know that the truth was more bizarre than she thought.
A certain unknown bigshot was directing and starring in a show all by himself, and was on the road to a fully automatic and integrated production.
After their performance, Luke and Selina went to the apartment building.
The two of them still acted very cautiously, as if they really were good detectives who were here to check the situation.
The clone, on the other hand, tossed away the guns and ran off. Once its part in the show was over, it immediately turned invisible and returned to the pit in the apartment building.
The Hand’s men were all dead. At that moment, there was only the stone treasure vault.
There was a reason why Luke hadn’t taken the stone vault previously.
It was a super big thing that was almost 20 meters tall.
In the past, Luke’s inventory had only been 1,000 cubic meters in size, which couldn’t house this big thing at all.
Also, the enormous stone vault hadn’t been dug out then, and collecting it would be very difficult.
Even when his inventory space expanded, he wanted to catch the three super “big fish” that were worth 500,000 experience and credit points altogether. He didn’t want to scare them away.
In any case, the thing was right next door, so he didn’t touch it.
This time, the Hand had chosen the perfect moment to attack.
Luke had a faint conjecture, but he couldn’t confirm it for now.
However, safety first.
1,000 birds in the forest weren’t as good as one in the hand.
Also, what was in the stone vault wasn’t a “bird,” but a “dragon.”
Touching the stone vault, Luke channeled his Mental Strength with all his might. 30 seconds later, the enormous stone vault suddenly disappeared.
Luke glanced at the system notification and confirmed his harvest. He immediately focused again.
The stone vault was a good thing, but the system didn’t need it to level up.
What the system was interested in was still the “dragon bone” stored inside.
What Luke was doing now was using the inventory’s deconstruction ability to take out the “dragon bone” from the stone vault.
It was much harder to do than he had expected.
Not only was this stone vault mysteriously hard to destroy, it also interfered significantly with the inventory’s deconstruction ability.
Two minutes later, Luke’s clone had just started to sweat, when its face lit up. “It’s done.”
Gasping for breath, the clone started to move once more, and stuffed some special “products” into the stone vault.
This was far easier to do than taking out the “dragon bone.” It took Luke less than ten seconds.
It was probably because the “dragon bone” and the items which Luke had put inside were on different levels.
It could also be that “taking something out” was just more difficult than “putting something in.”
This time, Luke didn’t stop, and simply threw the stone vault out from his inventory.
Although it was still taxing, it was easier to “throw” things out of his inventory than to “stuff” things inside.
After doing a circle around the stone vault to check that nothing looked out of place, Luke had his clone leave the pit.
Luke, who was still patrolling the apartment building, was satisfied, but there was something he still had to get Big Dipper to do.
A moment later, Big Dipper successfully blew up part of the apartment building that was leaning against Luke’s place, turning it into a pile of construction debris that fell next to the building.
The pitiful little nest had finally escaped its fate of being suppressed, and could now sit quietly and watch.
