Sky-cracking Rider

"You two, and this Pure Light Sparrow here, isn't your Aircrew Base about to be done for?"

There are always those who relish in others' misfortunes.

As the saying goes, everyone enjoys their blessings alone, but share calamities together—how splendid, how splendid!

There are always those who dislike seeing others well off, after all, in a large forest, there are all kinds of birds.

Hanna Gagel said disdainfully, "You think the strength of our 911 Aircrew Base is just this much?"

"There's still the fully capable 'Genuine Fragrance' Combat Flight Squadron, a Seventh Rank Magical Beast, the Golden-Eyed Azure-Hearted Civet, and... well, an 'Ah Mao'!"

Chen Fei wagged his index finger, telling those who wanted to laugh at the 911 Aircrew Base, not to idle around without a cause.

He was somewhat self-satisfied, grateful that he had kept an extra hand; even though he and Boss Hanna were not at the 911 Aircrew Base, or Teacher Shen Fei's mountain school, there was still a Magical Beast guarding each side.

At the school, although there were only Teacher Shen's Model 95 automatic rifle and the Shadow Wolf "Ah Mao", the direct distance of 15 kilometers was merely a throttle push for a "Big Mouth Monster." A Third Rank Shadow Wolf might not be able to withstand a frontal assault from the mutants, but a sneaky attack from behind could absolutely hold out until support from the 911 Aircrew Base arrived.

"Genuine Fragrance" Combat Flight Squadron is the most brilliant squad in the Xingdu Kush Mountain Area, which is well-known. Even air combat forces like the Merman Brothers Consortium had their heads bloodied but failed to take down the 911 Aircrew Base, earning a reputation shinier than 24K gold.

And then there's also a Magical Beast, the Golden-Eyed Azure-Hearted Civet—just hearing "Seventh Rank Human Order" was terrifying enough, comparable on the ground to the "Genuine Fragrance" Squadron.

Last of all... can someone tell me what the hell is "Ah Mao"?

Could it be that the Golden-Eyed Azure-Hearted Civet is not that Big Cat?

I suppose many people would break their heads guessing that this so-called "Ah Mao" is actually just a guard wolf located 15 kilometers away from the 911 Aircrew Base.

Cat → Dog → Wolf → Magical Beast, this is a damn huge misunderstanding.

"Want to laugh at us, 911? How stupid!"

Hanna, the conspiracy theory expert, wore a disdainful expression, who knows who will be the butt of the joke!

Those who had been sniggering just now could no longer muster a laugh, with 911 having the most reliable Combat Flight Squadron and a Magical Beast standing guard, what about them?

Many people turned pale and trembled, if what the lady boss from Jiu Defense said was true, even if they really could make it back alive, things might have already cooled off by then, right?

Zuo Gengming said with an ashen face, "I—I must go back!"

Other shareholders of Spring Field Defense were his college classmates. In his absence, with his life or death unknown, it was uncertain whether those classmates would tear apart their friendship to struggle over control of Spring Field Defense and waste too much energy on infighting.

The areas near the two Aircrew Bases already had mutant activities, and Spring Field Defense was having a hard time dealing with it. They took the opportunity of the salon to meet strong military contractors for cooperation and support. Now, if mutants instigated by humans attacked them, it would be adding insult to injury.

One person immediately stood up, pointing at Zuo Gengming and said loudly, "You want to go back, and so do I, but how do we get back? Outside is all damn mutants, stepping out is a road to death."

An intangible pressure filled the air, leaving no escape. Many people had odd expressions in such a situation, on the verge of emotional outburst.

Butler Thompson of the manor did not have such a predicament as the military contractors. Instead, he could maintain his calm and reason and quickly urged everyone, "Please keep calm! Everyone, please cool down a bit, Ms. Hanna, your theory is just speculation."

"Right, perhaps it is a guess, who knows!"

Hanna Gagel feigned ignorance knowingly. If it really were a human conspiracy, they wouldn't miss this opportunity.

No matter what these guys were thinking, since things had already happened, no one could change the result, and they didn't know how many Aircrew Bases could eventually survive.

Cruel corporate warfare may leave prisoners, but when attacked by mutants, often no creature is spared, no survivors left—surrender is futile.

"We must go back, we must return as soon as possible!"

"Yes!"

"Staying here is but a road to death."

More and more people realized this wasn't a place to linger. Even if they temporarily had enough food and water, what about weapons and ammo? They couldn't withstand continuous mutant assaults. Once depleted, it would be the end for everyone.

Zuo Gengming said, "But how do we get out of here?"

The problem circled back to the beginning.

Chen Fei, considering his Physics Holy Sword, casually said, "Just kill all the mutants."

He had fought with mutants all night long once, killing until they were scared to retreat. Thus, he didn't care about the numbers of mutants. With enough crowbars, he could eventually split open every mutant's head.

"Easier said than done!"

Butler Thompson shook his head in dismay. He looked toward Boss Hanna, internally lamenting the loss of a Wind-type Ability User.

Fortunately, that Metal Ability User happened to be immune to the Supernatural Ability Suppressant, retaining a valuable combat force.

"You guys stay here, leave the rest to me!"

Chen Fei picked up the White Steel Crowbar, ready to walk toward the door.

Zuo Gengming asked in surprise, "Hey, wait, where are you going?"

"You see that pitch-black hole ahead; it must be their den. Just wait as I rush up there and slaughter them clean..."

Chen Fei, singing in operatic style, charged out howling.

Such a reckless fool!

Hanna Gagel covered her face, unable to bear looking.

If it weren't for his awakening ability of being impervious to swords and guns, with such impulsiveness, who knows how many times he would have died.

No wonder he dared to release the "Dragon Slayer Missile" in a moment of excitement, even risking his own safety.

"Hey, hey, hey! Where are you going? Come back, come back!"

Zuo Gengming chased after him, but just as he rushed out the door, he scrambled back in, falling and crawling. He was just an ordinary person with not even a hint of special abilities. Chasing out like that was a death wish!

Butler Thompson, feeling awkward, rubbed his hands together and asked, "Um, Miss Hanna, is it okay for him to be like that?"

Hanna Gagel said indifferently, "No problem! He still has Xiao Jiu with him, yes, that Pure Light Sparrow."

"That's good, that's good. Wait, Xiao Jiu?" Thompson breathed a sigh of relief. The next second, he froze. What? He took the Pure Light Sparrow with him? He quickly rushed to the door. This time, the estate's security was prompt and swiftly pulled Mister Butler back inside.

"Hey, hey, Mr. Chen, come back, come back quickly!"

If you're going to venture out on your own, don't take the life-saving Pure Light Sparrow with you!

Light-based ability users were always few, and those with healing abilities were even rarer. Anyone who knew how to use a healing spell was treated like a treasure and kept well in the rear, not to be sent to the front lines casually.

Especially at this critical moment, the significance of the Pure Light Sparrow Xiao Jiu to everyone was akin to a lifeline.

"We can't let Mr. Chen venture out there alone. We must organize a team to bring him back."

A male military contractor leader with a bandage on his head quivered with righteous zeal.

"Yes, you're right. It would be too dishonorable of us to let him fight alone out there."

"Take the best marksmen with you, and bring more hand grenades."

"It might also help scout the way."

...

However... with too many old slickers and hardly a few willing to actually spring into action, only two or three got carried away and stood up, wishing to join this seemingly foolish reinforcement team. But seeing that everyone was all talk and no action, they sheepishly retreated, not willing to be the sacrificial lambs.

Bang!~

A distant thud resounded, lighting up half the space with fire.

Moments later, another explosion occurred, and the shrieks of mutants sounded from afar like a Hyakki Yagyo, causing everyone's hair to stand on end as they imagined the fierce "heroic" scene of the battle.

Seeing the female boss of the Jiu Defense Company calmly holding a cup of tea, Zuo Gengming couldn't help but ask, "Ms. Hanna, aren't you worried?"

"Worried? Worried about what?"

Hanna Gagel set down her teacup, a look of confusion on her face.

"Mr. Chen Fei might be in danger. Don't you plan to rescue him?"

Zuo Gengming silently prayed in his heart that nothing would happen to Chen Fei. Otherwise, their planned cooperation would definitely fall through.

If his venture failed, he would have to go home and inherit the family fortune, something Zuo Gengming was extremely reluctant to accept.

"Rescue him? I would if I had the ability. Unless I remove the Supernatural Ability Suppressant, I'm just as helpless as anyone else right now."

Hanna Gagel picked up her tea again, took a small sip, and continued, "Speaking of danger, Chen Fei is the biggest danger. Instead of worrying about him, it might be better to worry about how many mutants will survive in the end."

She was somewhat holding back her true thoughts. Even without her Wind-type psionic ability, her martial arts alone could prevent seven or eight ordinary men from getting close.

Not far away, the estate's butler looked embarrassed. What a situation this was!

"Mr. Chen Fei is the biggest danger?"

Zuo Gengming was dumbfounded. Is that any way for a boss to talk about their employee?

...

Clad from head to toe in Personal Armor Basic Body Level 1 (Light Armor Mode), Chen Fei slaughtered hundreds of mutants who foolishly exposed themselves. Looking around, within a hundred-meter radius, not a single living mutant could be seen.

These monsters had finally learned their lesson, knowing that no matter how recklessly they attacked, it would be in vain.

"Chirp!~"

The little bird, secure in Chen Fei's pocket, was sleeping soundly, undisturbed by the mutants' screams or the explosions of hand grenades.

For the little guy, being by Daddy Chen Fei's side was the ultimate sense of security.

Indeed, that was the case.

"Evolve, Dragon Guard!"

Chen Fei softly commanded, and the Dragon Guard Single Soldier Tactical Armor from the Physical Evolution Database replaced the Personal Armor Basic Body Level 1 (Light Armor Mode) as seamlessly as a tide washing in and out.

In this situation, the Dragon Guard was appropriate, though the Individual Tactical Intelligence Unit still had shortcomings.

Execute "A:\\Adam-AI_2.0\\Adam_beta\\Adam.exe"

The usually task-giving Dog System was uncharacteristically quiet this time, surprisingly not assigning any mission.

Adam: ??? Who am I, where am I, and what am I supposed to do?

Adam: Damn! How many times have I been deleted???
