I made up myths in America

Chapter 17: Darkness of the Rainy Night
Unlike the traditional and conservative older generation, Robert and others who grew up in the information age often surf the Internet, are exposed to a wide range of information, and have unconventional thinking. In fact, when you look at it in detail, they are no different from other ordinary young Americans.

After making preparations, they acted quickly according to Mina's plan.

In the first step, the oldest yellow-skinned boy pretended to be a customer and entered the bank. He unexpectedly took out a fake gun and took hostages, demanding that several armed guards in the bank drop their weapons and surrender.

The second step was that after eliminating the biggest threat, others rushed in wearing special robber masks, quickly controlled the staff and customers in the bank, and asked them to cut off the power supply, making it easier for Luke and Mina to sneak into the bank vault. . . .

To be honest, it was the first time for the four of them to do something like this, and although they said they were relaxed, they were actually very nervous.

But surprisingly, things went unexpectedly smoothly, and the four young men who were just starting out actually robbed the largest bank in Pennsylvania.

Everyone cooperated obediently as they were told, and no accidents occurred throughout the process.

"Shit, is robbing a bank so easy?!"

Robert was shocked. It was the first time he realized that bank robbery was a profession with such a low entry threshold.

No wonder thousands of bank robberies occur in the United States every year.

It seems that everyone has discovered this blue ocean.

Before Robert could finish his sigh, his sister Mina's voice came from the radio headset he was wearing.

After confirming that they had the situation under control and that there were no casualties, Mina breathed a sigh of relief and said to Luke, who had been prepared at the side, "Cousin Luke, it's our turn to go out."

"it is good."

Luke had been waiting for this moment.

Only a wall away from entering the bank vault, he could vaguely sense the call of the rain god Tlaloc.

This feeling has never been so strong.

It was so severe that Luke could hardly control the surging power in his body. Under Mina's somewhat surprised gaze, his body swelled up, and his arm muscles bulged high, giving off a cold and hard luster like metal.

"Cousin Luke, is this the power bestowed upon you by the gods?"

Mina walked forward and touched it in amazement, and found that her cheap cousin's arm was now harder than steel, and seemed to contain some kind of thrilling power.

"Well, I didn't know why the gods chose me before, but now I think I understand. This is the mission the gods have given me..."

The experiences during this period obviously completely changed Luke's faith, turning him from a philistine who didn't really believe in God to someone who began to believe in fate.

But what they don't know is.

The reason their operation went so smoothly was that the investigation team had just monitored their radio channels with eavesdropping equipment and was fully aware of their plans.

Hearing Luke's words with a strong sense of fate, George Gently, who had remained calm and believed that Luke Duncan would not escape his control, suddenly felt a strong sense of foreboding.

He discovered that his psychological and behavioral profile of Luke Duncan might be wrong.

The other party came here to rob the bank not only to help his cousins ​​raise money for surgery,
There is a more important purpose.

This purpose might even be related to the super powers he currently possesses!!!

"Huh...can't wait any longer."

Realizing that things were gradually getting out of his control, George Gently immediately overturned his original plan, picked up the walkie-talkie, and gave instructions to the people who were ambushing around the bank and inside the bank.

Bang! Bang bang! !
In an instant, the situation changed dramatically.

The bank staff, who had just been actively cooperating and refusing to speak in front of Luke and the others' fake guns, suddenly transformed into an extremely brave and aggressive person. In a matter of seconds, they were all subdued and pinned to the ground by the neck.

Even the yellow-skinned boy who was the most capable fighter among them couldn't survive a single round.

And in the hazy rain, the sounds of armed helicopters and drone groups taking off could be heard.

"ah??!"

Robert was stunned by the scene.

He was stunned for three full seconds before he realized that these people were probably coming for his cousin Luke.

"Sis, you and cousin Luke, run!!"

Robert struggled and shouted.

But the radio headset on his ear was removed by FBI agents disguised as bank staff the moment he was subdued.

The sound can't carry that far now.

They could only watch as teams of National Guard soldiers came out of a nearby parking lot in armored vehicles and tanks and surrounded the First National Bank of the United States.

At the same time, under George Gently's order, the four precious hostages were also transferred to one of the armored vehicles.

He himself stood behind rows of National Guard soldiers, holding a loudspeaker in his hand, and began the final call for surrender.

"Luke Duncan, you're surrounded. There are over thirty armored vehicles and tanks, and a thousand fully armed National Guard soldiers."

"There are also more than ten armed helicopters patrolling the sky at all times."

"You can't escape from here."

"If you surrender now, I promise that what Old John said to you before will still be valid. The federal government will not hold you accountable for any crimes. You and your cousin will have the brightest future, and your Aunt Linda will receive the best medical resources and treatment."

From the perspective of an ordinary American, what George Gently said is very tempting.

In fact, this is the result of more than ten hours of overtime work by the expert think tank team behind George Gently.

They deeply analyzed Luke Duncan's life experience and personality, and believed that under this kind of rhetoric, Luke Duncan would most likely choose to surrender, which would be good for everyone.

And their analysis and inference are actually correct.

This was a decision Luke would have considered making if he hadn't experienced those two incredibly realistic dreams.

But now.

In the bank vault.

Following a mysterious intuition, he tore open a safe with his bare hands and took out the mask of Tlaloc, the rain god, which had been stored for hundreds of years and which he had seen many times in his dreams. Luke fell silent.

He remembered the oath that the warrior Shuras made to the high priest on the Pyramid of the Moon.

He said he would protect this sacred Aztec object with his life and soul.

“Me too!!”

Luke made his choice.
