Super Invincible Battleship

Chapter 271: Chapter 153: Earth Shakes and Mountain Trembles_2

Once they had regulated their breath, the two combatants clashed again. Suddenly, Duan Hongye let out a stifled groan, rapidly retreating to the top of a sand dune a hundred meters away. His stomach was dripping with fresh blood, his intestines spilling out; it turned out he had finally sustained a serious injury during his fight with Huo Shan.

But Huo Shan was not faring well either. He was already severely injured prior to his encounter with Duan Hongye, and even though he had used his strange abilities to regain considerable combat power and had even managed to grievously wound Duan Hongye, he was once again injured. Another hole appeared in his chest, vaguely revealing his internal organs, and he looked extremely weak.

As soon as Yan Fei in the sky noticed Huo Shan’s weakened state, the Drone immediately targeted Huo Shan, rapidly switching its missiles to AGM-114 Anti-Tank Missiles, ready to fire at Huo Shan. Panting, Huo Shan looked up at the battered F-15 Fighter reappearing in the sky, surprise flashing in his eyes. He then focused his Spiritual Power, attempting to interfere with the pilot’s thoughts. In the sky, Yan Fei felt a sudden wave of dizziness but quickly recovered, then controlled the Drone to fire the AGM-114 Anti-Tank Missiles at Huo Shan.

The reason Huo Shan was able to interfere with the connection between Yan Fei and the Drone before was due to the vast distance between Yan Fei’s real body and his Drone Avatar. However, when he was inside the Drone Cockpit, closely connected to the Drone, the interference was greatly reduced. Yan Fei felt only a moment of vertigo before returning to normal. Then he used the Quantum Radar to lock onto Huo Shan and guide the anti-tank missile in his direction.

Yan Fei had a profound understanding of Huo Shan’s terror, so when attacking him, he fired all the remaining missiles of the Drone at once. Moreover, all these missiles were switched to AGM-114 Anti-Tank Missiles, amounting to as many as nine.

Seeing he couldn’t interfere with the Drone Pilot, Huo Shan knew the situation was dire. He moved quickly, attempting to dodge the onslaught of anti-tank missiles. He was so fast that it was hard for the average person to even see his movements. However, under the lock of the Quantum Radar, his speed seemed very slow. The missiles’ Flight Speed reached Mach 4, which meant they travelled over a thousand meters in one second. Despite Huo Shan’s desperate dodging, he couldn’t evade the attack of the AGM-114 Anti-Tank Missiles.

What followed was a series of massive explosions on the ground. Guided by the Quantum Radar, and precisely controlled by the Auxiliary Brain, each of the anti-tank missiles hit Huo Shan’s head one after the other with minimal intervals, resulting in violent explosions. In the end, Huo Shan was completely engulfed in flames.

Having fired all his missiles, Yan Fei had played his Trump Card, and he watched intently as Huo Shan burned, hoping the missiles would kill him. But when the flames died down, Yan Fei was greatly disappointed to see that Huo Shan stood unharmed, his hands in a position as if deflecting the missile attack. His clothes, however, were torn and tattered, barely covering his body.

Strangely, despite such fierce attacks, the hood on Huo Shan’s head remained intact, still covering his face, still preventing anyone from seeing his true appearance. However, his gloves were torn, revealing the white flesh of his arms beneath. Through the holes in his clothes, glimpses of his white skin could also be seen…

Huo Shan remained in that defensive posture, motionless, leaving everyone clueless about his condition. Spotting an opportunity, Duan Hongye flashed and instantly appeared beside Huo Shan, drawing his sword across Huo Shan’s throat.

Huo Shan suddenly let out a long howl, dodging Duan Hongye’s attack. His body then darkened and merged into the air. Others couldn’t detect Huo Shan’s whereabouts, but the Quantum Radar still had him locked on. Thus, under the guidance of the Quantum Radar, the Drone once again opened fire on Huo Shan, this time with only its 30-millimeter Naval Cannon available. Huo Shan, extremely weakened, was forced to reveal his form with each hit from the cannonfire. Duan Hongye appeared beside Huo Shan once more, plunging his sword into Huo Shan’s back, and managed to slice off a piece of flesh.

After being wounded again, Huo Shan screamed in agony, suddenly transforming into a mist of blood, then flew away at a terrifying speed. Duan Hongye, caught off guard, failed to stop the blood mist. Even with his own terrifying ability for instant movement, he couldn’t catch up with it. The Drone in the sky continued to fire at the blood mist, but after having expended too much ammunition, it ultimately ran out. There was only a “click” as the Drone used its last round of ammunition, rendering it unable to attack Huo Shan anymore.

Without the Drone to hinder him, Huo Shan accelerated away and vanished into the darkness of the night sky in an instant…

On the ground stood Duan Hongye, surrounded by his colleagues who approached and asked, “Vice-captain, how are you holding up?”

Duan Hongye gestured with a wave of his hand, signaling them not to come any closer. He stood there, and suddenly, he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood. Eagle startled, asked, “Big Bro Duan, are you alright?”

Duan Hongye stood in place, slowly regulating his body, and after a while, his complexion returned to normal. He let out a long breath and said, “Huo Shan is indeed formidable. Even with serious injuries and someone else’s plane lending support, I couldn’t keep him here.”

Eagle then asked worriedly, “If Huo Shan is that dangerous and he has escaped, could he come to China to seek revenge?”

Duan Hongye replied, “Although I failed to capture him, I have inflicted grave injuries upon him. Coupled with his existing wounds, he won’t be able to recover his ability to act for a long time. His last resort escape has even damaged his very essence, causing irreparable harm. So, although we didn’t manage to eliminate Huo Shan this time, we’ve bought at least two years during which he can’t regain his strength. It’s a bit of time earned for China.”

Eagle inquired, “Who were that masked man and the F-15 Fighter that fought a fierce battle with Huo Shan just now?”

Duan Hongye speculated, “I suspect the masked man is the ‘Destroyer’ from the internet, since he took up Yan Fei’s Bounty Task and must have come to complete it. As for the F-15, it felt strangely familiar to me, yet I can’t remember where that familiarity comes from…”

They all looked up to see the F-15 Fighter flying away from them. Although not fast, and somewhat wobbling in flight, it was still faster than their running speed on the ground could ever be. In only a few minutes, the F-15 had reached the distant sky and then disappeared from view.
