After about fifteen minutes, a silhouette shimring with red and blue ergency lights slowly erged at the edge of the distant sky.
Under the lights, one could faintly see a large hovercar the size of a truck, spewing bluish-green flas as it drifted along a fixed path toward the Steel Forest.
On the car, the Red Cross symbol and Snake Staff emblem appeared prominently, clearly indicating it's the Trauma team's designated ergency hovercar.
And inside the vehicle, there was no doubt that the passengers were Mokaka, a diamond mber, and the four guards with doctor titles beside her.
"It's here!"
Yun You straightened up, staring at the hovercar without blinking.
Tian En nodded, unconsciously tensing his legs, ready for action.
In the silent Steel Forest, the appearance of a large hovercar often attracts countless eyes.
So bandits hiding in the shadows began to stir, aiming their smuggled weapons unknowingly at the vehicle.
Robbery and theft are as common here as radiation sources.
Although the Trauma team's vehicle likely doesn't contain cash and doesn't have the robbery value of a money transport vehicle, dical equipnt often fetches a good price on the black market.
Those who live in the Steel Forest are mostly desperados who dare to rob cars and people from the Nest City Council just to earn money; a re Trauma team hovercar is certainly no exception.
The powers in Nest City might fear the subsequent revenge from the Trauma Company, but the residents of the Steel Forest do not. At worst, they can dive into the ruins and sleep beside a radiation source; the pampered gentlen of Nest City wouldn't risk coming to such places to capture them.
Thus, the first group of restless bandits surged out, choosing to take action.
"Woo-la-la-la-la!"
They shouted, riding hover motos, wielding shotguns and rocket launchers, circling the hovercar endlessly, hoping to slowly exhaust the massive vehicle using their mobility advantage.
Bullets sprayed from muzzles like fiery tongues, transforming into a vast red net in the dark sky, enveloping the hovercar and causing sparks on its armor plating.
The bandits didn't plan to penetrate the steel plates with ordinary bullets, but rather to suppress the Trauma team with firepower, preventing them from opening the hatch to counterattack, thus gaining ti for their rocket launchers to aim.
It seems this group has dealt with hovercars and such targets many tis before, knowing how to tackle this turtle shell.
However, just as the bandit leader finished locking the rocket launcher target and was about to pull the firing trigger...
A blinding red light suddenly locked onto his forehead.
No, to be precise, it locked onto all the bandits besieging the hovercar.
Soon after...
"Buzz—"
A laser shot from the nozzle at the bottom of the hovercar, suddenly split in mid-air, transforming into dozens of branches, accurately striking each shooter's forehead, instantly penetrating their brains and burning their skulls into char.
With just one strike, the bandit team besieging the Trauma team was completely wiped out.
It was only then that those watching from afar realized the surface of the hovercar was more pitted and scratched than they imagined; even a three-ter-tall car door bore countless scuff marks from shrapnel.
However, this vehicle had never been truly damaged, nor had it ever been genuinely hijacked.
"A bunch of fools, daring to rob our car."
Inside the hovercar, a fully ard doctor with a scar looked at the bandits tragically falling outside and couldn't help but sneer.
"They probably can't distinguish things and mistook our car for one of those fragile ambulances from the urban area."
Another female doctor with glasses shook her head and spoke softly: "Too bad, they're probably never going to know that the Trauma Company's hovercar is modified from a military technology 'panzar190' heavy armor vehicle, and its weapon system is several tis stronger than the armor vehicle's."
"Even if so Apprentice Death Gods ca here, they might not withstand our 'Clustered Laser Array'."
"One shouldn't say things like that."
Upon the ntion of an Apprentice Death God by the female doctor, an old soldier-like doctor shook his head beside her and spoke softly: "As mortals, we must never underestimate Apprentice Death Gods."
"Is this underestimating? Isn't it just the truth?"
The scarred doctor shrugged and chid in: "It's not like our Clustered Laser Array hasn't hard an Apprentice Death God before."
"When a Death God is completely unprepared and unaware of the intelligence, getting hit by such a laser, they'd be severely injured if not dead..."
"Moreover, I recall that the laser that hard the Apprentice Death God was fired by personally!"
Saying this, the scarred doctor couldn't help but gesticulate, pride evident in his expression.
For mortals, being able to harm the almighty Death Gods is indeed sothing worthy of celebration.
"Alright, everyone shut up."
Distracted by the scarred doctor's increasing excitent, the blindfolded giant who had been silent all along, the captain of the dical team, finally couldn't resist opening his mouth to halt the pointless debate.
"Xiao Lin, go check the patient's vital signs once more to ensure the gunfire didn't affect her."
He looked toward the female doctor and issued the first order.
She was montarily stunned, but soon she reacted, jogging to Mokaka's bedside to work with the dical devices.
