*Ding! Hydra 70 has been successfully created. 2 ether crystals (low) were added to the debt.

*Ding! You failed to create Hydra 70 rocket. 2 ether crystals (low) were added to the debt.

*Ding! You failed to create Hydra 70. 2 ether crystals (low) were added to the debt.

"Okay, I guess I have enough." Mark stopped creating the ammo and missiles as he felt the debt has been raised too much.

Apart from the fully loaded Attack helicopter, Mark possessed about 1000 rounds of 30mm ammo; 5000 rounds of 20mm ammo; 10 Mistral missiles; 50 Hydra 70 rockets; 20 Hellfire missiles in his inventory.

It landed him with an additional debt of 24560 gold coins and 974 ether crystals (low).

However, Mark didn't stop there. He went on to create a hundred 120mm ammo adding to the previous 48, then, another hundred of 40mm grenades and a thousand ammo of 12.7mm for the machine gun. 

In the end, the overall debt is totaled to 1774 ether crystals (low) and 30433 gold coins. 

And yet, Mark didn't hesitate to store all these in his inventory because he didn't know when the next Emergency Quest would appear again. So, he used that one hour of travel to the fullest without resting a bit. Of course, the main reason he was able to do that is because of the mass wealth he gathered in the past few days.

From the rear chamber, Mark only had the controls of the armaments in the inner hardpoint, i.e. 20mm autocannon pod, and four Hellfire missiles. The remaining three are controlled by the pilot, sitting in the front chamber i.e. Alina.

As he reached the city entrance, Mark was looking down through the window. "The aerial view is indeed amazing."

It's been a while since he last saw a city from a plane. So, he felt a little bit of nostalgia before Alina informed him. "Big Brother, we are in the eight-kilometer range."

Taking a deep breath, Mark gave a nod, "fire Hydra 70 as a warning shot. Don't aim for killing. Just aim at the roof."

"Roger."

Alina clicked on the buŧŧon, nearby the controllers, and fired an unguided rocket at the Sui clan's headquarters.

The rocket was fired from its pod and cut through the air with the speed of mach 2.2. In just 11 seconds, it hit the roof of the mansion, blowing up a part of the ceiling.

Mark watched it through the screens before him. Like the battle tank, the helicopter was also installed with cameras everywhere. So, he had a 360-degree view at all times with a few blind spots, of course.

Looking at the flames, he nodded with satisfaction but as the flames died within just a couple of seconds, he mumbled in seriousness, "It looks like they are prepared. Well, it doesn't matter."

After a few minutes, as the helicopter entered the clan district, Alina informed Mark about the incoming arrow with the power of the 6-circle realm (advanced stage), to which the latter replied to fire the unguided rocket while watching the screen.

Little did he expect Alina's aim was so precise, the rocket perfectly struck the arrow, followed by causing an explosion and blasting away the attacker standing on the roof.

"Okay, now, where is this so-called the backbone of Sui Clan?" Mark focused on the screens and wondered. He asked, "Alina, can you scan around while staying in the vehicle?"

"Yes, Big Brother." Alina nodded and instantly scanned the whole clan district. Stopping at the destination, two hundred meters above the mansion, she spoke, "A 7-circle realm expert is in the mansion. Should I blow the entire building?"

"No, there's no need." Mark was against the idea as he wasn't here to take revenge but to extort the money. He only needed to push them to the edge of the cliff but shouldn't proceed to throw them down below. He further said in the mic, "We have a speaker facility in this vehicle, right? I will first talk to them."

Mark looked at the control system before him. At the end of the wire that is attached to the control system, there are two buŧŧons. The blue one, on the left, indicated intercom and the green one, on the right side, indicated speaker.

He pressed on the green one.

A giant megaphone appeared from below the helicopter. He cleared his throat and spoke, "Hello, nice to meet you. I'm Lu Zhen and I'm in no way had come here in peace. Your Elder named Sui Hanying is a hostage of mine. I'll only say this once, so, listen carefully.

I'm going to throw him down below along with a letter. After you take him away, then, I will start to descend. I don't want anyone, 200 meters nearby me. Then, you will have 30 minutes to discuss and give a reply that you decided.

Those who don't comply with these simple rules of mine will face death. This is my first and last warning. Don't blame me later as it's on your ignorance and arrogance."

Mark could see, several people are looking at the helicopter but he wasn't even sure whether the sound get to them or not. After all, there is a distance between them and the rotor blade sound can interfere. Not to mention, due to the noise-canceling feature, he didn't even hear his voice from the speaker.

In the end, he betted on their superior listening abilities and proceeded to open the door, pushing the unconscious elder out of the vehicle.

However, he underestimated the Sui Clan. Just as he pushed down the Elder and was about to close the door, a blur of an arrow appeared in his sight.

Mark quickly closed the door. The lightning arrow struck it but failed to pierce. It only cracked the glass.

*Ding! The durability of Attack Helicopter- EC665 has been reduced by 1%.

"Fuck." Mark let out a curse and leaned his head to the back. Sweat poured down his forehead, almost instantly and his body started to shiver due to the fear. "Close to the death."

In the next second, he was filled with rage, "I'll kill that motherfucker that tried to ambush me."

Mark took a closer look at the screen. On the roof of the mansion, a young man was conjuring up another arrow. It was just an ether arrow without any attribute.

"It's you, bastard. Die." Mark took the control stick and pressed the red buŧŧon.

The system asked for a target. With the help of a control stick, he locked onto him.

*Ding! Target has been locked.

One of the four hellfire missiles was launched. Since it has a target lock feature, the helicopter's direction didn't matter. 

It made a U-turn as soon as it was fired and flew towards Sui Weisheng. The latter's eyes widened upon spotting the incoming projectile. He fired the arrow.

With a speed of 1.3 mach, the Hellfire missile was indeed slower compared to Hydra 70. However, the distance between them is also less. So, it didn't take long for the missile to reach its target.

However, just when it was only ten meters away from Sui Weisheng, the latter's arrow obstructed its path. It's where its strength of locking the target turned into a weakness.

As the arrow isn't its target, the missile tried to dodge it by making an upward trajectory. But, it was then Sui Weisheng outsmarted the system. "Explode."

*Boom*

The arrow that was supposed to go past the missile suddenly exploded in mid-air.

*Ding! Hellfire missile sensors were damaged. Connection is severed with the system.

"What!" Mark's eyes are widened in shock. "How is that possible?"

He was betting everything on this missile but didn't expect it can be stopped too. However, all is not lost.

The missile was sure deflected from its original path but it wasn't destroyed. The missile eventually went past the mansion but hit a tower, located five hundred meters away. It was where the prisoners are kept.

The whole tower was exploded into million pieces, killing everyone in it.

The elders as well as the normal clan members were stupefied for a moment to see the range of the explosion.

Sui Weisheng sighed in relief, "thank goodness. It didn't hit me. Or else, along with me, the whole mansion would have been exploded."

He proceeded to take out a talisman and burn it.

Meanwhile, Mark who was disappointed by the failed attack didn't hesitate to fire another at the target. He was determined to kill the person that ambushed him.

Another hellfire missile took a u-turn just like before and planned to take out the target.

"Shit." Sui Weisheng hurriedly conjured another arrow to deflect it again. But, he was slow. The missile was already in front of him and he has yet to release the arrow. His heartbeat spiked to the maximum.

It was at that moment, a figure in white robes and long white hair appeared before him.

*Boom*

Both of them were blasted away while reducing the mansion into nothing.
