Chapter 631 Flight Mode!

Ryan hadn't anticipated this.

The end of the road—no asphalt highway ahead! Instead, a massive warning sign:

DANGER—SEA CLIFF AHEAD. NO VEHICLES BEYOND THIS POINT.

—Starlight City Transportation & Tourism Bureau

"Damn it! That's Devil's Cliff—Starlight City's famous tourist spot! We're in serious trouble!" Ryan cursed. 

With three black sports cars in hot pursuit, he had no choice but to keep driving forward!

Inside the car, everyone reacted differently:

Ryder's brow furrowed as he desperately tried to think of a solution.

Clara gritted her teeth. "Damn it, we have three injured people! Abandoning the car isn't an option!"

Rex immediately protested, "No way! This car is my baby—I'm not leaving it behind!"

Sarah curled up on one side, drifting between consciousness and unconsciousness, unable to follow the conversation. Barbara remained in a deep coma.

Soon, the amphibious sports car approached the cliff edge. Its speed noticeably decreased. The three pursuing black cars also slowed down. The amphibious car was trapped like a fish in a barrel.

Unless... it wasn't afraid to jump off the cliff!

Inside one of the black cars, Tyler was ecstatic. "Not even God himself could save Ryder's group now! Hahaha!"

From Tyler's perspective, Ryder had only two options: Either stop and surrender, at their mercy! Or drive off the cliff and be crushed to death! Either way, Ryder's fate was sealed—death!

"What the hell?"

Before Tyler could finish imagining Ryder's two possible deaths, his eyes suddenly bulged in disbelief! What kind of sorcery was this? The car carrying Ryder suddenly sprouted wings and took flight!

This sight left everyone in the Talon Assassins speechless.

Meanwhile, in the now-airborne amphibious car, Ryan was in tears.

Ryder and the others were confused. "Uncle Ryan, escaping is good news—why are you crying?"

Ryan sniffled, looking emotional. "This amphibious car can run on land, swim in water, and fly in the air! But..." 

A flash of memory crossed Ryan's eyes. "The engineer who designed this car was your father! He said the land and water modes could be used indefinitely." 

"But the 'flight mode' causes extreme damage to the vehicle—it can only be used three times. Before this car was sent to the exhibition hall, I'd already used it twice. So after this escape, the car will be basically worthless."

Rex, who loved the car like his own child, heard Uncle Ryan's words and joined him in mourning for the vehicle.

Back on the ground, the three black sports cars stopped, and Tyler and the others quickly got out.

The Talon Assassins couldn't help but marvel:

"Holy shit!"

"It can fly? What kind of advanced tech is this? Even more sophisticated than our equipment!"

"Incredible—it actually took off! Is that really a car?"

Tyler had no interest in admiring high technology! He wanted Ryder and the others dead! Not watching them escape into the sky!

"Shoot it down! I see weapons in your cars! Bring that flying thing down!" Tyler refused to let Ryder escape! Such a deep hatred had to be avenged!

He grabbed Talon Assassins' leader Moe. "I want Ryder dead! Is this all the Talon Assassins are capable of? Shoot it down!"

Tyler was nearly hysterical. But Moe kicked him away. "Useless fool, we don't need you giving orders. We know what to do."

Moe quickly instructed his team, "Hurry, let's test our new equipment!"

Several Talon Assassins members began assembling a sniper rifle. The barrel was extremely long—six feet in length. The caliber was enormous—12.7mm specially designed.

"This gun has enough firepower to take down an armed helicopter, let alone a modified car! It's child's play!"

"Exactly! These people dared to offend the Talon Assassins! They deserve what's coming!"

The Talon members laughed. But Moe warned them, "Don't get careless! If we fail to bring it down, our heads will roll. Remember, the secrets of the Talon Assassins must never be exposed!"

"Yes, sir!"

Quickly, the Talon Assassins set up the specialized heavy sniper rifle. They pulled the trigger!

BANG!

The gunshot thundered as the muzzle spat hot flame! The bullet raced toward the amphibious car! In the night sky, the bullet struck a wing, creating intense sparks and a crisp sound.

The amphibious car relied entirely on its wings for support. With the right wing damaged, the entire vehicle shook violently.

Ryan and the others instantly snapped out of their emotional moment. "Damn it! They have snipers with heavy rifles! Who are these people?"

The situation became dire once again. Ryder's group faced another life-threatening crisis.

BANG!

Another shot. This time, the left wing was hit. The car shook violently again, teetering on the edge of falling.

Inside the amphibious car, Ryan was drenched in sweat from the effort of controlling the aircraft and maintaining balance.

"They're deliberately targeting the wings to make us crash. They're definitely professionals!" Realizing this, Ryan gritted his teeth in hatred toward the people below. 

"How dare you destroy my amphibious car like this?" Ryan roared, still forcing himself to maintain balance.

CRACK!

The sound of breaking bone! Ryan suddenly let out an agonizing scream, "It's over! Ryder, take over! I just broke my wrist from the strain!"

"What?"

Thrust into the role, Ryder quickly moved to the driver's seat and grabbed the controls.

Fighting through his pain, Ryan instructed, "Quick! I'll guide you, and you operate! Otherwise, we're all going to die here! Turn right two cycles!"

"Got it!"

Ryder's expression was serious, his movements precise as he followed Ryan's directions. But only he knew the truth—he could barely drive a car, and now he was flying a plane!

The atmosphere inside the amphibious car was intensely tense.

On the ground, the Talon Assassins were furious that they hadn't brought down their target in one shot.

"Keep firing! Bring it down at all costs!" Moe shouted.

BANG! BANG! BANG!

The snipers' aim was impressively accurate—nearly every shot hit its mark. The only reason the vehicle was still airborne was its incredible durability!

But after taking multiple hits, the amphibious car finally rolled sideways like a shot bird, unable to maintain balance. It began to fall!

SPLASH!

The calm sea surface erupted in a massive spray. The amphibious car was swallowed by the ocean.

The problem was finally solved!

But the Talon Assassins were always thorough. Several members who had been standing by quickly set up heavy machine guns. The muzzles spat fire.

They sprayed the area where the amphibious car had crashed for a full thirty seconds! A hail of bullets! Under such firepower, survival was impossible!
