Chapter 1417: Chapter 750: Aerial Battle
Before the end of days, a famous phrase circulated online.
“If you don’t cultivate, you see me like a frog in a well looking at the moon in the sky; if you do cultivate, you see me like a mayfly seeing the blue sky.”
This phrase, placing it on Feng Jiangong, naturally doesn’t quite fit.
But it has some significance.
Before meeting Liang Yuan, he was the number one in the military, the strongest, holding a high position, admired by thousands.
He was also the first Superpower User in all of Linjiang to cultivate to the Genetic Reorganization Realm.
With such an identity and strength, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of looking down upon others from the peak.
However, after meeting Liang Yuan, he discovered someone who could really rise from a minor refugee and gradually catch up to him.
Within just a few months, even surpass him, becoming an existence he couldn’t compete with.
At first, he was unconvinced, also worked hard to catch up, wanting to maintain his status as Linjiang’s number one.
Yet, through repeated impacts of Genetic Reorganization, he not only failed to successfully reorganize his genes into a higher realm.
Instead, due to failed Genetic Reorganization, he became neither human nor ghost.
Everyone looked at him as if he were a monster.
That feeling, he remembers vividly to this day.
So now, his mindset has changed from before.
“Let’s not talk about this, let’s move out.”
Feng Jiangong said in a deep voice, “I hope the military doesn’t suffer too much loss.”
Liang Yuan glanced at him. Feng Jiangong was an old-timer in the troops and had a good relationship with quite a few old subordinates.
Emotionally, he surely hoped that his old friends wouldn’t get into trouble.
But he didn’t know how many of those old subordinates still had a heart for him.
Maybe they had already defected to Zhang Yujiang.
“Let’s move out.”
With Liang Yuan’s order, all the ships instantly took off, emitting a piercing whistle, shooting rapidly into the sky.
The ships traced a trail behind, whistling through the clouds and disappearing without a trace.
Yang Mei and others gazed upon this scene from above Yangshan, a hint of worry on their faces.
Tang Ying advised, “Don’t worry, Mr. Liang and the others are so capable, they will surely return in triumph.”
Yang Mei nodded slightly and sighed, “When will this end? Can’t everyone join hands to get through this flood crisis?”
“So many people have died already, why continue killing each other?”
Tang Ying also sighed, “This is human nature. In a society constrained by morality and law, it can still function.”
“Once they lose these protections, humans and beasts are no different.”
“Humans might even be more brutal than beasts.”
Upon hearing this, Yang Mei recalled scenes in the building back then, and couldn’t help but sigh, speechless.
Song Wen beside her said, “That’s why we should support Brother Liang.”
“Only a truly strong leader standing up, ending this disaster quickly, and re-establishing order can unite humanity and allow us to regain footing beneath this apocalyptic flood.”
Li Hanzhong and others nodded.
“Indeed, in times of chaos, severe measures are needed. We must become strong to rebuild a civilized society.”
…
Boom!
Cloud Mist Island, Cangqiong Mountain.
Thunderous sounds continuously came, with numerous ships rapidly soaring in the sky.
Ships continuously fired dazzling Energy Cannon, bombarding Cloud Mist Island below frantically.
Cloud Mist Island’s defensive shield shattered at some unknown time, and the bombardment tore it apart.
The mountains and trees within were swept by the Energy Cannon, exploding into pieces instantly.
The military’s Superpower User forces, some driving tanks, others holding rockets.
All firing back missiles.
Although their fired missiles also had Superpower Rune enhancements.
The accuracy was too low.
With nearly dozens of ships in the sky, whizzing back and forth, those below couldn’t aim accurately.
Instead, a randomly dropped Energy Bullet from the ship could flatten a large area of the island instantly!
All at once, wailing cries constantly echoed.
Crying and calling for help kept coming from the military side.
People here weren’t all military personnel; a large portion were recruited by the military after the great flood.
Their military literacy couldn’t compare to real soldiers.
Many began fleeing, jumping into the sea.
Some started fighting for boats, wanting to escape.
Some simply hugged a Water Escape Talisman Stone and leaped off.
The escape of these people was like an avalanche triggered by a snowflake, immediately dispersing all confidence on the military side, everyone madly fleeing.
Strangely, there was no high-level command to stop these grassroot soldiers’ escape.
In the entire military camp, only some sergeant or captain-level personnel commanded.
Not even a few lieutenants were seen, let alone commanders above platoon leader rank.
“Hahaha, shoot them! Blast them hard!”
“A bunch of lowlifes, daring to sneak into our space and spy on our Floating Island!”
“Kill them, kill them all, avenge our brothers!”
Inside a ship adorned with the Mengya emblem, Yu Wentao picked up the intercom, laughing wildly with a distorted expression.
His name sounded refined, but his appearance was extremely fierce.
Not only tall, close to two meters in height, but his entire body seemed entirely mechanically assembled.
Arm guards, chest armor, shoulder pads, knee pads, and other parts, all displayed mechanized features.
Even his five fingers resembled five gun barrels, hollow and empty.
At this moment, the crimson light on his right thumb flickered, resembling a radio signal.
He spoke without using a walkie-talkie, instead holding up his thumb to call out.
Clearly, his thumb seemed to possess the function of a walkie-talkie.
“Beep beep beep—Alert, enemy aircraft approaching!”
“Alert, enemy aircraft approaching!”
A series of alerts sounded, Yu Wentao’s expression changed, and he immediately pressed his temple.
In an instant, his eyes transformed into special mechanical eyes, and he quickly said, “Switch to the ship’s footage.”
In the depths of his pupils, numerous footage scenes instantly appeared.
His thoughts swiftly scanned, and he quickly noticed the eastern sky captured by a ship.
From the eastern sky, a dozen or so ships flew in.
All of those ships were in a flying saucer shape, moving at extreme speed.
Seeing these ships, he was taken aback: “Kerry Technology Company?”
“Why are they here?”
“Manager, should we intercept?” came numerous inquiries through the aircraft’s radio station.
Yu Wentao spoke without hesitation, ordering: “Immediately issue a warning, after three ineffective warnings, intercept and bombard them!”
“Understood!”
Then several ships immediately changed direction, swiftly approaching those ships.
“Warning, this is Mengya Company warzone, you have entered the warzone, stop immediately or face the consequences!”
“Warning, this is Mengya Company warzone, you have entered the warzone, stop immediately or face the consequences!”
The second warning voice had just been shouted, not waiting for them to issue a third warning.
The opposite saucer-shaped ships suddenly fired energy cannons!
Boom boom boom…
Over a dozen ships madly shot out energy cannons.
The terrifying energy cannons instantly pierced through the sky, striking the three ships from Mengya Company.
These three ships had no time to react, their defensive shields were turned on, but what was fired was not ordinary shells, but Sealing Energy Bullets with Sealing Runes!
The Sealing Energy Bullets hit the defensive shields, creating a hole almost with every hit!
In an instant, the three ships exploded in a roar!
The sound of energy explosions echoed, and the three ships instantly turned into a massive energy shockwave, exploding in all directions.
Witnessing this scene, Yu Wentao’s face instantly changed wildly.
“Wang Tian’an, have you gone mad?”
Yu Wentao roared angrily, simultaneously ordering: “All ships, change direction, retaliate fiercely!”
“Yes!”
“Understood!”
Immediately, all ships belonging to Mengya Company dispersed, abandoning the attack on Cloud Mist Island, rapidly charging at Liang Yuan and his people!
Thus, a fierce aerial ship battle commenced.
Both sides pursued each other in the air, energy cannons firing continuously.
All the ships from Yangshan’s side came from Kerry Technology Company, and virtually every one of them was equipped with a Stabilizing Rune Array.
No matter how strong the attack was, it could be countered.
After all, it was capable of withstanding the terrifying storm in Thundercloud.
In contrast, on Mengya Company’s side, the type of defensive array was unknown, yet the defensive shields of their ships were extremely solid.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to pass through the Thunderstorm Zone.
But on Liang Yuan’s ships, the artillery had all been replaced with Sealing Cannons!
With Sealing Runes in power, no matter how strong the defensive shield, as long as it operated under the superpower energy mechanism, it would be instantly destroyed!
Thus, the battle quickly turned one-sided.
The Yangshan ships were bombed yet unharmed.
In contrast, the Mengya Company’s ships, once hit, had their defensive shields collapse, creating openings.
Then they would be bombarded by energy cannons into explosion.
Clearly, this deadly weapon, the Sealing Rune, seemed to only exist in the Linjiang region.
Far away in Yu Province, neither Mengya Company nor Kerry Technology Company possessed such runes!
Liang Yuan saw this scene, his eyes lit up.
He immediately realized that the Sealing Rune might be a unique rune of Linjiang!
Just like the Stabilizing Rune, which had never been seen in Linjiang, has seemingly become a defensive dedicated rune in Yu Province!
“Different rune technologies also affect the progression of rune science!”
“In the future, the Sealing Rune may very likely become Linjiang’s secret weapon!”
“This will become the key rune technology for Linjiang to rise rapidly!”
Liang Yuan felt a stir in his heart, immediately planting the thought.
“Must find a way to control the circulation of Sealing Runes, they will become Yangshan’s military secret weapon!”
Thinking of this, Liang Yuan immediately showed a killing intent.
Today, these Mengya organization personnel must be eliminated.
Furthermore, the military base must be taken back, along with Zhang Yujiang’s group, they must be dealt with!
“Because they also know how to manufacture the Sealing Rune!”
“To ensure the Sealing Rune doesn’t leak, these people must all be captured!”
“At the very least, capture those who can make Sealing Runes!”
At this moment, Liang Yuan was no longer concerned with the battle, with Sealing Cannons present, the outcome of this battle was already foreseeable.
