Lin Yun planned for two of the hovercars to cover their retreat while one stayed by his side as they escaped. He had already decided that these vehicles would be operated by three robots. After seeing what Lin Tian was capable of, Lin Yun had grown to trust the robots' abilities even more.
However, these robots weren't as powerful as Lin Tian. They were merely advanced robots from a first-level civilization, each with the martial arts strength equivalent to the late Mingjin stage.
There was no other choice. Lin Yun did not have many Spirit Crystals left in his Cosmic Trading System. He had just purchased these three robots at the cost of 150 Spirit Crystals.
Now, he was left with only a bit over a hundred Spirit Crystals in his Cosmic Trading System.
Still, he planned to purchase a superior hovercar that Lin Yi could use to break through the opposition.
"Get in the cars!"
With around a hundred people present, Lin Yun swiftly allocated everyone to a vehicle, then gave the order to leave.
While everyone was boarding, Lin Yun entered an empty room and pulled out another hovercar.
This was the hovercar he had just purchased with the last hundred of his Spirit Crystals.
By this time, Lin Yi had returned.
Lin Yun had Lin Yi pilot the hovercar, with Lin Yun, Qingqing, and four female staff members on board, speeding towards the cleared escape path.
Whooosh—Whooosh—Whooosh—
The hovercar shot out like an arrow.
"Such... such an amazing performance..."
The awe-struck Lang Jiuping and his companions, mostly security guards and bodyguards, piloting the other vehicles, were astonished at the vehicle's capabilities.
Acceleration, brakes, and other features were a far cry better than those of the cars they usually drove.
Thankfully, Lin Yun had already explained the vehicle's capabilities to them beforehand, so they were somewhat prepared; otherwise, they might not have been able to adapt so quickly.
The assailants outside had already been cleared out in one direction by Lin Yi, which allowed the leading vehicles of the convoy to break through the blockade around the Qingyun Hotel with ease.
At this point, the rest started seeming wrong.
And those of the Flying Eagle Guards who had managed to escape were getting ready for various things outside. However, they too hadn't expected such a swift response from within the Qingyun Hotel.
The Flying Eagle Guards were elite among the elite. He only had a hundred under his command, yet this limited force gave him substantial power. Sometimes, they would undertake some private tasks and earn some extra income. The most important part for him was the extra income he could pocket himself.
This time, a high-level member of Mie Family had approached him about a task. They promised three million per guard and up to eight million for a Dark Strength level guard.
This proposal was very tempting to him.
Then, the Mie Family threw in a big incentive. The top factions in Capital City were involved in this operation. They had dispatched a Mid Term Realm Grandmaster, combined with two other HuaJin Grandmasters from the Mie and Lu Families, amounted to three HuaJin Grandmasters in total.
They emphasized the low risk of the operation and hinted at the possibility of establishing connections with the top factions of Capital City.
At the very least, in the future, if they had any tasks, that top family might think of the Flying Eagle Guards.
Who wouldn't want to establish a good relationship?
Having thought through all the enticements, the high-level officer of the Flying Eagle Guards accepted and deployed all available Flying Eagle Guards, totaling seventy members.
However, he hadn't expected the operation to fail so soon, and with disastrous results to boot.
A total of more than fifty Flying Eagle Guards dead... He only had a hundred in total!
Normally, any single death would be a significant event. Now, he had lost more than half of them!
This was a disaster for the Flying Eagle Guards!
He knew there was no way he could hold onto his position now, and if the higher-ups sought to pin the blame on someone, his assets and his future would all be in jeopardy...
His once bright future was ruined in an instant. One minute he was in heaven, the next in hell, causing turmoil and distress.
"Pssh——"
Finally, he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.
"The Mie Family ruined me! The Mie Family ruined me!"
He shot up from his seat, staring in a certain direction with furious, trembling eyes.
70 Flying Eagle Guards deployed, and over 50 dead. So that was considered not very risky?
The Mie Family really screwed him over this time.
