18: Chapter 18 The allure of intelligent driving, the aerial killing machine that actively hunts!

Yu Feng tapped on his personal panel.

[Name: Yu Feng]

[Current Attributes: Strength 11, Constitution 23, Agility 9 (Average for a normal adult male is 10)]

[Daily check-in reward distributed: Free Attribute Point +1, Personal Space +1 cubic meter.]

The red warning line representing the deadly Black Fog hovered 1,750 kilometers behind him. At the Black Fog's speed of 400 km/h, it would catch up in less than five hours.

He was just about to head to the logistics cabin to check the changes in his upgraded space when the screen of the Regional Channel was suddenly dominated by a glaring golden barrage.

[Global Top Announcement: Player Li Tianbao has successfully upgraded his vehicle to Lv.4! Unlocked unique hidden reward: Fully Automatic Computer Smart Driving Module!]

Yu Feng stared at the golden text, his brows furrowing tightly.

"Li Tianbao? I've never even heard of this name. There are indeed hidden dragons and crouching tigers among the six billion people."

But what truly made his heart race was that "Fully Automatic Computer Smart Driving Module."

On this Desolate Continent where there was no turning back, everyone had to stare at the dashboard every day to run for their lives, terrified that they would be swallowed by the Black Fog if they dozed off for even a second. If he had smart driving, coupled with his 100 million portions of fuel, this airliner could speed along 24 hours a day without stopping! While he slept, he would still be flying—how could anyone else compete with him for the ownerless supply crates ahead? He could even keep the deadly Black Fog permanently outside of his radar detection range.

He had to reach Level 4 before everyone else. Eating the leftovers of others was not his style.

"Chu Yu, notify everyone in the back to fasten their seatbelts," Yu Feng ordered into the communicator, his tone tinged with arrogance. "This plane isn't following the rules today."

Since killing monsters dropped blueprints and materials, why bother looking for supply crates? The mutated birds filling the sky ahead were ready-made mobile treasure troves!

Yu Feng pushed the infinite fuel throttle lever to the limit with both hands.

The Lv.3 Heavy Assault Airliner erupted with a manic roar, like a steel beast, diving headfirst into the gray clouds and actively deviating from the original safe flight path.

In less than ten minutes, dense red dots appeared on the radar.

The clouds ahead broke open, and a massive flock of birds consisting of over eighty giant vultures and Mutated Giant Eagle blocked his path. Each one of them was terrifying in size, enough to tear apart ordinary iron-clad vehicles.

If it were any other player, they would have been scared into turning around, making an emergency landing, or frantically taking evasive action.

Yu Feng sneered. Not only did he not slow down, but he also drove straight into the densest part of the flock.

"Bang! Bang! Bang—!"

The muffled thuds merged into one. The six alloy spike rams and the high-grade steel meat-grinder saws on the edges of the wings acted like the Grim Reaper's scythe. Those Mutated Giant Eagles they were so proud of were as brittle as paper in front of his Steel Hull, which was enhanced by extraordinary traits. Severed limbs and broken wings, mixed with black blood, exploded wildly at an altitude of 3,000 meters.

The airliner plowed through the flock like a hot knife through butter. The absolute stability system was pushed to its limit, and there wasn't even a tremor inside the cabin.

[Successfully killed Tier 2 Giant Vulture.]

[Successfully killed Tier 2 Mutated Giant Eagle.]

The kill notification sounds flashed across his mind like a waterfall. This kind of harvest, relying purely on absolute strength to crush the enemy, was so exhilarating it made his scalp tingle.

Yu Feng flew the airliner back and forth three times, like a meat grinder in mid-air.

Until he had crushed over fifty Tier 2 mutated birds, a notification shimmering with dark gold light finally popped up.

[Obtained: Lv.4 Airliner Upgrade Blueprint *1.]

[Obtained: Tier 2 Wind-type Crystal Core *25.]

[Obtained: High-grade Refined Steel *300.]

[Obtained: mixue ice orange *100.]

Just then, the red alarm light in the logistics cabin suddenly lit up. There were too many supplies; even the hidden space expanded after upgrading to Level 3 was stuffed to the brim.

Yu Feng mentally accessed it and, without hesitation, tossed out the dozens of boxes of inferior instant noodles, ordinary wood, and low-grade iron blocks he had saved up earlier. Keeping this junk that took up space was a complete waste.

With the blueprint in hand, Yu Feng turned the nose of the plane and cut back to the main flight path.

Just as he flew out of the clouds, a strange minefield consisting of over a dozen floating sensor mines appeared directly in front of him, sealing off the only way forward. Given the height and density, it was clearly an aerial trap set intentionally by some major faction specifically to blow up passing planes.

"Playing dirty?"

Yu Feng didn't even move the Control stick; he crushed right through it at 120% full thrust.

"Boom, boom, boom—!!!"

Chain explosions detonated beneath the belly of the airliner, flames shooting into the sky.

The airliner pierced through the sea of fire and emerged completely unscathed. Not even a scorch mark was left on the dark-black composite armor.

Yu Feng leaned back in the pilot's seat, overlooking the desolate land below, a sense of extreme desire for Control rising in his chest. In this dead land, he was going to use this aerial fortress to crush every living thing that dared to block his path. He would set the rules.

The sky gradually darkened, and the Black Fog had been left thousands of kilometers behind.

There were several tough battles to be fought in the cabin that night. Yu Feng had added all the attribute points he gained daily to Constitution; currently, the most beneficial allocation for the entire team was adding to Constitution.

[Current Attributes: Strength 11, Constitution 23, Agility 9.]

Just after looking at the panel, a soul-stirring fragrance drifted from the middle of the cabin into the cockpit.

Liu Ruyan walked over, carrying a huge stainless steel basin. Inside the basin was a full portion of stewed Mutated Giant Eagle meat, the broth golden and rich, with a layer of red chili oil floating on top.

"Yu Feng, it's time to eat." This ice-cold counselor was wearing that pink lingerie that barely covered her E-cup breasts, her cool face revealing a tenderness like a virtuous wife and mother, and the look she gave Yu Feng was almost enough to pull strings.

The cabin had already erupted.

"Teacher Liu's cooking is amazing! After eating this eagle meat, I feel like my whole body is heating up, and my strength has increased!" Chu Yu held her bowl, gnawing on a bone without any regard for her image, panting from the spice.

"It's so delicious... Big Brother Captain, will you catch birds for Teacher Liu to cook every day from now on?" Chen Yuxin was eating with her face covered in oil.

Over thirty beautiful women were chattering away, eating with glowing faces in this 28-degree constant-temperature safety fortress.

Once they were full, the girls' gazes began to drift intentionally or unintentionally toward the Captain's cabin.

Everyone knew that the Level 3 plane had a super-sized double bed that was a full five meters wide in that Captain's cabin. And as long as one could climb onto that bed, they could awaken supernatural powers and be reborn.

Several school beauties exchanged glances, eager to make a move.

"Bang!"

Su Nian stood directly across the door of the Captain's cabin. The pink lace lingerie she was wearing barely covered anything, and her proud assets were thrust out extremely arrogantly.

"What are you looking at! No one is allowed in today!" Su Nian's big eyes were full of possessive hostility. "The plane isn't broken right now, and the iron skin outside is so hard that there's no need for any Repair powers! You guys want to use the guise of righteousness to sleep with my man? Not a chance!"

When this girl's love-struck brain kicked in, she was completely unreasonable. The few girls shrank their necks, intimidated by her fierce demeanor.

Alisa walked over, swaying her exquisite snake-like waist. The blonde foreign beauty completely ignored Su Nian's hostility and leaned directly against the door frame, her plump figure exuding strong pressure.

"Su, you are wrong about that. Your powers upgraded last night. This proves that Yu's stamina can help us break through our limits." Alisa's azure eyes curved. "Don't you want your fireballs to be more powerful? The three of us are the core combat power of the team; we must be prioritized for improvement."

Liu Ruyan also walked over. She pushed up the non-existent glasses on the bridge of her nose, her cheeks slightly red, but her tone was extremely serious: "Alisa is right. The mutated monsters are getting stronger and stronger. If my God-level Cooking can be upgraded, the food I make will be able to provide attribute bonuses. This is for the team."

Watching these two singing in harmony, Su Nian gritted her teeth in anger.

The metal door closed.

It was another spectacular tutoring session.
