Chapter 214: Operation Wolf Slayer. (Part 02)
[Dante: They are probably using it for intimidation.
Trying to scare off any reinforcements the rich bastards might try to bring in.]
Just as that message arrived, Finn noticed a dark spec rise from Blue Ember’s roof. A closer look revealed that it was an aerial vehicle, and a fancy one at that. Someone was trying to escape the hotel, but that was far from the greatest idea.
BOOM!
KABOOM!!!
A turret jerked back once, and the next second, the escaping vehicle exploded into a ball of brilliant orange flames. For a moment there, it felt like the entire city went quiet, as if the noise people learned to ignore vanished, creating such an overbearing silence that couldn’t be ignored.
[Dante: What was that?]
Finn stared at the cloud of black smoke, watching the wisps of orange flame disappear from it as a charred piece of metal plummeted to the ground.
"It... they blew it..."
[Jake: That was real, wasn’t it?]
Though they had seen it using the same pair of eyes, neither Finn nor his AI friend could believe what had just happened.
