160: Chapter 160: Activation of Air Forces
"Holy crap!"
Chen Fan exclaimed, repeatedly patting Aurell on the back:
"Pull up, quick!"
"This Great Master does not need your instructions."
Aurell quickly pulled the plane up, while muttering in a low voice:
"Tracking missile."
A massive missile stood silently in the air.
After a brief pause, as if it had locked onto its target, fire erupted from the tail of the missile, and it flew toward the pendulum.
Whoosh—
A dark beam of light shone over, almost slicing the missile in half.
However, the missile, engulfed in flames, continued to accelerate toward the pendulum.
Boom—
The massive missile struck the eerie eye, and flames spread out.
A hoarse shriek echoed in the air. Wisps of black smoke rose from the explosion.
The giant eyeball was gradually consumed, and the eyelid slowly closed, reverting to the shape of a pendulum.
The flames extinguished.
A black sphere of light appeared at the center of the explosion.
Seeing this, Chen Fan's eyes lit up.
"eye of annihilation!"
So, the eerie thing on the searchlight by the city wall was this type of eye.
If that's the case...
Chen Fan scanned the area, a greedy look appearing in his eyes.
The rooftops of the entire city were covered in these eerie eyes; if he could collect them all, he would strike it rich.
Thinking of this, Chen Fan immediately opened the chat box.
"Jiu Jiu, board my No. 2 destroyer and have Chris bring you over."
Jiu Jiu didn't ask why and replied instantly: "Okay~"
The entire river channel had been explored, and the path was lined with desolate forests or open land.
Even if they encountered some short-sighted people, the firepower of the destroyer was enough to wipe them out.
The No. 2 destroyer also enjoyed a 90% speed bonus, allowing it to arrive faster.
"I need to hurry; I must clear out all these eyes before Jiu Jiu arrives."
He scanned the riverbank, where three hundred warships had already entered the port.
When they entered the range covered by the eyes, the eyes on the rooftops showed no abnormality and continued to scan the high altitude.
Chen Fan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Thankfully, his guess was correct.
Even if these warships didn't belong to the City of Sin, they were their allies.
The city's defense program probably wouldn't fire on its own people.
As if to confirm Chen Fan's hypothesis, when the warships approached, some eyes scanned the fleet.
However, after just a few glances, they continued to look up to scan the sky.
Under this blind spot, the three hundred warships sailed into open waters.
This was enough space to deploy thousands of ghost ship units.
Looking at the request sent by Kuka, Chen Fan pondered for a moment:
"No rush, use the warships to focus fire on the eyes."
Kuka accepted the order and began to command.
In an instant, three hundred cannonballs flew toward the nearest high-rise building.
On the rooftop, the eye on the eerie pillar was shattered by the cannonballs.
A black sphere of light appeared on the rooftop.
After waiting for a long time without any abnormalities, Chen Fan's eyes lit up.
He calculated the attack power and said:
"One hundred cannonballs are enough to focus fire; spread out the attacks!"
"Yes, my master!"
Kuka coordinated for a moment and waved his hand again.
Boom, boom, boom—
The eyes on the tops of three buildings were smashed.
Just like that, the more he fought, the bolder Kuka became.
He even split the warships into three groups, slowly sailing forward while bombarding the eyes on the rooftops along the way.
More and more eyes were smashed, and clusters of black light spheres floated on the city rooftops, looking extremely eerie.
"This isn't difficult at all; clear the eyes first, then go find the energy core."
Just when Chen Fan thought the operation would go smoothly, the eyes on the rooftops began to flicker rapidly.
"Program error, initiating manual intervention."
The deep, heavy voice sounded once again.
Chen Fan's heart tightened, and he immediately said: "Gather, retreat."
"Yes!"
Kuka also heard the voice and immediately organized the fleet to retreat to the widest area.
A moment later, ten squads of enforcers ran out from the darkness.
These people were completely wrapped in protective suits, their bodies slightly hunched.
With fifty people per squad, after lining up, bursts of fire flashed from the equipment in their hands.
Five hundred people drew their bows and arrows simultaneously, ignited the arrowheads, drew their bows, and fired.
The flaming arrows whistled through the air.
Thud, thud, thud.
The arrows stuck into the hulls of the ships, instantly setting the warships on fire.
Just as Kuka was preparing to order a counterattack, the five hundred people quickly scattered and hid behind the buildings.
Once they were ready, five hundred more fire arrows were shot over.
"A bit tricky; the targets are too small, making them hard to lock onto."
Kuka ordered the Crew Members to start extinguishing the fires.
However, the five hundred archers fought like guerrillas, firing one round and then changing positions, leaving him completely frustrated.
"my master, the opponents are too cunning."
After being fired upon for ten consecutive rounds, Kuka helplessly asked for help.
Chen Fan naturally saw this scene and rubbed his chin.
"Since there's no way to clear them out, we'll just push through and demolish them by force."
"Kuka, release the ghost ship units, push forward quickly!"
"Yes, my master!"
Kuka waved his hand, "Ghost Ship Fleet, deploy!"
Instantly, five thousand ghost ship units appeared one by one.
The eyes on the rooftops finally found their target and turned toward the river channel.
In the center of the eye sockets, the massive eyeballs began to gather black light.
Kuka snorted coldly, controlling the ghost ship units to disperse while silently counting in his mind.
"1!"
"2!"
"..."
"10! Recall!"
The sky filled with black light, like a black rainstorm, sweeping toward the river channel.
However, just as the black light was about to pierce through the ghost ship units, the five thousand ghost ship units vanished instantly.
A small amount of black light accidentally hit the warships, and the struck warships gradually began to corrode.
"Repair." Chen Fan muttered in a low voice, and the warships instantly recovered to their original state.
As the attack fell, Kuka once again summoned five thousand ghost ship units.
Timing the cooldown of the black light, over ten thousand cannons on the five thousand ghost ship units fired simultaneously.
Since the ghost ship units' cannons were more powerful than the warships', Kuka used only about 50 cannons to focus fire on the same eye.
The moment the cannons fired, Kuka recalled those five thousand ghost ship units and immediately summoned another five thousand for another round of volley fire.
In an instant, over four hundred eyes were destroyed.
The ten thousand ghost ship units recalled into the space were methodically loading cannonballs, waiting for the next round of volley fire.
In the clouds, Chen Fan watched in amazement.
He didn't expect that Kuka could come up with such tricks for these ten thousand ghost ship units.
"Well done, Kuka."
"At your service, my master!"
Kuka's voice was exceptionally high-spirited, which further solidified his decision to entrust the ghost ship units to Kuka.
Chen Fan even had the intention of adding some more ghost ship units.
On the rooftops.
The eyes that had lost their target became confused again, scanning back and forth.
The Crew Members on the warships weren't idle either.
Taking advantage of this time, they removed all the fire arrows and extinguished the fires as well.
"Program error, initiating air force."
Chen Fan was stunned for a moment.
Air force? Wouldn't that mean...
Chen Fan's gaze swept forward.
Ten strangely shaped helicopters flew out from the darkness of the city.
"helicopter!"
Chen Fan exclaimed, his eyes gradually lighting up.
