123: Chapter 123 Mission Successful, Five Aircraft

"Is Zhou Heng still alive?"

"No, that's not right. It might be a trap."

Zhou Tao leaned toward the crack in the door and glanced outside.

Two soldiers were standing at the entrance of the restroom, smoking.

He slowly leaned back against the door, covering the gap.

His fingers tapped continuously on the chip; after inputting a whole paragraph, he clicked send.

After a while, the chip emitted a barely audible sound again.

Zhou Tao gripped the chip tightly.

When the sound faded, he suppressed his wildly beating heart and opened his palm.

"Confirmed. They also have an aircraft carrier, and it's not a semi-finished product like ours."

Zhou Tao continued to type. Just as he successfully sent it, a knock came from outside the door.

He gritted his teeth, typed another paragraph, clicked send quickly, then set the chip to silent and stuffed it back into the lining.

On the other side.

Chen Fan looked at the two messages that had arrived in succession, the corners of his mouth curling up slightly.

"If they guarantee not to harm civilians, I can help them."

"I have been placed under house arrest. In one hour, I will issue instructions to the family members. At least five members will cooperate with him; please treat my clansmen well."

Looking at Zhou Heng, who was staring at him eagerly, Chen Fan put the chip away.

"I'll return it to you once I've taken over the city."

"Alright... but the ones coming out later are all elites of the Zhou Family. Officer, could you please..."

Zhou Heng hesitated.

Chen Fan nodded. "My goal is not the city, nor is it your Zhou Family. Wiping you out brings me no benefits."

Hearing this, Zhou Heng breathed a sigh of relief, and his complexion became a bit rosier.

When he was led away, he even bowed to Chen Fan in all seriousness.

Chen Fan waved his hand and turned to look at the sea.

In his mind, he was constantly rehearsing the plan for later.

Currently, the technology is insufficient. Even if the aircraft carrier upgrade is completed, he only has one aircraft on hand.

The strategy Chen Fan discussed with Zhou Tao was precisely to have him send out a few more aircraft.

Unexpectedly, at this juncture, Zhou Tao was actually placed under house arrest.

However, perhaps it was precisely because he was under house arrest that he was willing to cooperate with him; it's hard to say whether it's good or bad.

What is certain for now is that he will have at least five more aircraft, which is a solid increase in strength.

Beep, beep, beep—

The alarm went off; an hour had passed.

Chen Fan stretched and stood up to look to his side.

On the avatar ship, Kuka gave Chen Fan a thumbs up.

Nodding slightly, Chen Fan opened the Crew Member channel:

"Target: Psionic City, set off!"

Both destroyers started simultaneously.

[Guardian Shield, activated.]

[Advanced Energy Shield, activated.]

With the dual shield bonus, the main ship pushed its speed to the limit and sped out.

From two thousand meters away, the land-attack missiles fired simultaneously.

Two huge missiles arrived with a whistling sound.

The moment they hit the shield, they shattered it.

Watching the invisible shield turn into fragments filling the sky, Chen Fan waved his hand.

"Advance!"

The main ship and the avatar ship pushed their speed to the max, speeding at 270 knots.

Inside Psionic City, the reaction was extremely fast.

By the time Chen Fan approached, over a dozen aircraft had flown out.

Chen Fan grabbed Zhou Heng. "Identify which ones are from your family."

Zhou Heng nodded heavily, hiding in the cabin and scanning through the glass.

"That one!"

He pointed to a helicopter.

Pudge immediately understood, tightened the rope around his waist, and began swinging the dragon hook.

When the helicopter group flew over, he let out a roar and threw the hook with all his might.

"Come here, you!"

The dragon hook arrived with a whistle, plunging straight into the group of aircraft.

The moment it hit, a giant net was flung from the hook, wrapping the helicopter layer by layer.

The cushion pad had already been laid out, and the helicopter landed accurately on the pad.

Similarly, the five soldiers were thrown until they were dizzy.

When the pilot caught a glimpse of the familiar, sneaky figure in the cabin, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly before he passed out.

The Crew Members swarmed up and brought the five people back to the cabin.

"Recruit!"

[Recruit successful: Armed helicopter x1.]

Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Chen Fan looked at Zhou Heng again.

Zhou Heng nodded vigorously and pointed again at the helicopter hovering in the air.

"Come here, you!"

Boom—

The helicopter smashed onto the cushion pad, the five soldiers' mouths curled up, and they passed out.

After hooking back three helicopters in a row, the sky was already filled with fighter jets.

The opponent's destroyer and aircraft carrier kept firing continuously.

Chen Fan's two shields were hit until only 30% of their energy remained.

After repairing the shields, Chen Fan glanced ahead.

Under Exploration vision, every detail of the entire aircraft carrier was in full view.

"No arresting gear?"

"Pfft... An aircraft carrier without arresting gear, is that still an aircraft carrier? Hahahaha."

Chen Fan almost spit out a mouthful of water.

Yesterday he was startled by this aircraft carrier; he didn't expect it to be a semi-finished product.

You have to know, arresting gear is one of the most important pieces of equipment on an aircraft carrier.

It is the guarantee for whether a fighter jet can land safely.

Without arresting gear, fighter jets cannot land safely on the aircraft carrier.

If they want to land, they have to find another place.

However, even if the opponent's aircraft carrier has no arresting gear, it doesn't affect the takeoff of those fifty fighter jets.

A total of over seventy aircraft were bombing back and forth.

The close-in weapon systems, rocket launchers, and other devices on the aircraft carrier also turned their muzzles to aim at china.

The energy of the shields also dropped rapidly.

In aerial combat, the power of naval guns is also extremely limited.

Although Chen Fan also has an anti-submarine helicopter, under such dense enemy fire, he dare not release it rashly.

Without air superiority.

Chen Fan has all this strength but cannot use it.

He could only vent his anger on the destroyer and the aircraft carrier.

"Damn it, when my aircraft are upgraded, I will definitely kill you all."

"Fire!"

Boom, boom, boom—

The triple-barreled naval guns, land-attack missiles, etc., all fired simultaneously.

However, the opponent's destroyer and aircraft carrier happened to be parked inside a shield.

Seeing Chen Fan fire, the invisible shield rose again.

The shield, which had been riddled with holes, was now restored to its original state, blocking the attacks on the outside.

After several rounds of shelling, the opponent's nearly collapsing shield flashed with dazzling light.

A hollow, extremely piercing roar came from deep within the city.

In an instant, the shield recovered again.

"What kind of creature's cry is this? Why is it so creepy?"

"Could it be that so-called divine beast?"

Chen Fan gritted his teeth and turned to look at Zhou Heng.

After many observations, Zhou Heng finally identified his family's pilot.

"That one, he signaled me!"

Zhou Heng reached out and pointed to the fighter jet in the air that was a beat slower.

"Pudge."

"Here, come here, you!"

Pudge predicted the position, and the dragon hook was thrown out at high speed, aiming straight at the fighter jet.

It would be more accurate to say the fighter jet ran head-first into the dragon hook rather than the dragon hook hitting the fighter jet.

Driven by the strong inertia, Pudge was pulled into the air.

Fortunately, one hundred Sailors had ropes tied around their waists, holding Pudge firmly.

"Fighter jet +1!"

Chen Fan clenched his fist and looked at Zhou Heng again.

Using the same move, after Pudge hooked another fighter jet.

Afterward, Zhou Heng shook his head. "There are no more."

Chen Fan nodded slightly.

Five aircraft, this is consistent with what Zhou Tao said earlier.

After recruiting the fighter jets, the aircraft group in the sky became increasingly irritable.

Cannonballs and bullets, as if they were free, were bombarding the shield crazily.

"The wind is picking up, let's retreat."
