Chapter 677 - Spoilers
677 – Spoilers
Lan Xuanyu now felt that even piloting a warship wasn’t as good as piloting a space fighter. No matter how agile a warship was, it was still much heavier than a fighter. Only a space fighter could allow him to soar in space like a bird and do whatever he wanted.
Hence, for the past few years, Lan Xuanyu had never let go of his training in space fighter piloting. With his spiritual power entering the Spirit Abyss realm and his comprehension of everything strengthening, he had broken through another bottleneck in space fighter piloting.
Currently, Lan Xuanyu was ranked 897th in Douluo World. Yes, he had already entered the top 1,000 in the entire Federation.
The top 1,000 didn’t sound very outstanding, but how many space fighters did the Douluo Federation have? A space fleet alone had over 50,000 space fighters. This was because all warships were equipped with fighters, especially large warships. They were the lowest level combat units in the universe, just like mechas. But most of the time, they could play a huge role, especially in land wars, complicated terrain, and space battles. Space fighters were the most important.
The Federation had over a million space fighters in its establishment. Although Douluo World’s ranking was different from real space fighters, being able to enter the top 1,000 meant that he was definitely a top-notch pilot. No, being in the top 1,000 meant that he could already be called a god-class pilot.
Hence, under what state was Lan Xuanyu at his strongest ? It wasn’t under his Dragon God Transformation state but when he was piloting a space fighter.
This was the reason why his teammates trusted him.
The moment the Sky Wing mecha successfully transformed into a Sky Wing space fighter, Lan Xuanyu immediately pulled up the space fighter. The head of the Sky Wing moved upwards in a cobra fashion style. At the same time, two missiles slid down from the belly of the fighter and landed directly on the head of the rank 8 Proto Dragon.
“Shapeshifting Mecha!” Countless people exclaimed when they saw this scene.
“Boom, boom.” Two loud explosions resounded as two balls of flames exploded on the rank 8 Proto Dragon’s head. The explosion caused him to stagger. The Sky Wing space fighter was equipped with six rank 5 soul ammunition. Lan Xuanyu was equipped with high explosive bombs this time.
The rank 8 Proto Dragon was immediately attracted by the explosion. It roared and activated its magnetic field.
However, a four-colored halo spread out at almost the same time. Lan Xuanyu had already predicted it, so the magnetic field wasn’t able to affect his space fighter at all.
The Sky Wing fighter swung its tail horizontally and made a beautiful turn in the air. It was already 100 meters away and facing the rank 8 Proto Dragon. Then, it actually sprayed out a strong light from its tail and charged straight at the rank 8 Proto Dragon. The fighter’s main cannon at the front fired continuously, shooting out rays of light that landed on the rank 8 Proto Dragon and exploded into balls of light.
The scene before them caused the Federation mecha warriors to think that Lan Xuanyu was crazy. A space fighter against a rank 8 Proto Dragon? Furthermore, they were inside the protective barrier of the fortress and the space for a fighter to maneuver around was very small. Furthermore, the destructive power of a space fighter was not enough to threaten a Proto Dragon!
The heavy soul cannons on the walls of the fortress had no choice but to stop because the speed of the warship was too fast and it was very easy to accidentally injure it.
But they soon saw how much a fighter could do.
The rank 8 Proto Dragon raised its front claws and shot out a dazzling golden light. This metallic light didn’t come from its claws, but from the tips of each claw. The Proto Dragon had three fingers in total, and its front claws shot out six rays of light. To a space fighter, it was like six rays of death, and it wasn’t something its defense could withstand.
But in front of everyone’s eyes, Lan Xunayu began to display his godly piloting skills, rolling horizontally.
Almost all space fighters pilots were able to perform a roll, but not everyone was able to perform such a feat.
Lan Xuanyu’s Sky Wing fighter performed a strange rhythm and trajectory as it rolled. It actually rolled and weaved through the six metal beams. There were a few times when it looked like the beams were about to hit him, but the fighter simply rolled and weaved through.
Lan Xuanyu’s Sky Wing was like a spinning top as it revolved around the rank 8 Proto Dragon. The main cannon didn’t stop and continued to bombard its head. Although it couldn’t really hurt the rank 8 Proto Dragon, it couldn’t see clearly. Amidst the furious roars, it kept trying to attack Lan Xuanyu.
Rings of four-colored halos spread out continuously. Elemental Stripping’s presence was simply too important to Lan Xuanyu. Without the Elemental Stripping skill, it was impossible for him to complete such a maneuver. A single magnetic field was enough to render all of his piloting useless.
At this moment, Lan Xuanyu was seated in the space fighter. His body was spinning as he followed the fighter, but his eyes were abnormally stable. When he was piloting a space fighter, he was in a completely different state. The fighter was circling, rolling, and attacking, exactly according to his thoughts. Whenever he thought of something, the maneuver would definitely be performed.
After piloting a fighter to a certain extent, it was no longer a matter of technique, but a matter of consciousness. It was the ability to grasp the overall situation.
At this moment, his mind was extremely clear and he could clearly sense everything in the outside world. In his perception, that gigantic rank 8 Proto Dragon was like a gigantic energy body that was constantly spewing out its energy. What he had to do was to attack this ball of energy and avoid the attacks brought about by the energy.
All of a sudden, all the soldiers who weren’t in the middle of the battle were dumbfounded.
In the command center, someone shouted, “Quick, come and see this! This is the divine space fighter piloting technique, the Phantom Spiral Dance, right? There’s actually someone who can do it.”
That powerful rank 8 Proto Dragon was actually completely pinned to the ground. It continued to attack chaotically but was unable to take a step forward.
The other battles were intensifying, and with the help of the heavy soul cannons on the city walls, the battle on the battlefield had gradually come to an end. Those rank 7 Proto Dragons were also killed by the experts and the soul cannons on the city walls, and there were no more mutations.
That space fighter was still dealing with a rank 8 Proto Dragon, and it seemed like no one could do anything to it.
At this moment, Lan Xuanyu had entered a special state, as though he had entered deep meditation while cultivating. He had entered this state before, and every time he entered this state, his piloting skills would improve greatly.
Hence, he had completely forgotten that his mission was to cover the retreat of his teammates. Instead, he was completely immersed in the battle with the rank 8 Proto Dragon.
The gigantic tail of the rank 8 Proto Dragon swept past. The Sky Wing fighter suddenly stopped in midair, and as everyone cried out in surprise, the fighter suddenly split into two illusory figures. The illusion was destroyed, but the real Sky Wing swooped down and fired its cannon three times at the rank 8 Proto Dragon’s head. The explosion caused it to roar and sway, almost falling.
The cheers had already begun to resound on the city walls—those were the mecha warriors that had retreated to the top of the city walls.
At this moment, there were only over 20 black mechas surrounding the battlefield, ready to assist Lan Xuanyu at any time. But the battle in front of them was clearly not something they could easily interfere in.
And the miraculous piloting skill of this space fighter had everyone dazzled. No one doubted that there was a god-class pilot in there. Only a god-class space fighter pilot could perform such a feat.
If not for that rank 8 Proto Dragon’s insane defense, this battle would have ended long ago. This pilot had already bought enough time for everyone so that they could calmly resolve the other battles on the battlefield. They were free to use their full strength while he was dealing with this rank 8 Proto Dragon. Otherwise, if a rank 8 Proto Dragon suddenly appeared, who knew how much damage it would bring to the military.
A space fighter’s energy reserve was limited, especially under such intense piloting, it would definitely run out of energy. The pilot could obviously replenish it with his soul power, but that wouldn’t last for long.
Hence, the elites were ready to take over the battle at any time. This rank 8 Proto Dragon had also consumed a lot of energy in the battle with Lan Xuanyu and was in a berserk state. It should be much easier to deal with it later.
Lei Junze was already at the top of the city wall. When Lan Xuanyu piloted the space fighter and started performing his maneuvers, he was already standing at the top of the city wall.
Many people didn’t know who was seated in the fighter or where it came from, but Lei Junze could clearly guess who was piloting it. That was just a child who looked to be 15 or 16 years old! What kind of talent and hard work would allow him to reach such a level in space fighter piloting?
This was no longer just a good seedling, but an absolute genius! He had already decided that when he returned, he would definitely suggest to his superior to do whatever it takes to get this brat to their side, even if it meant giving him extraordinary promises.
This boy was the commander of over 30 people in the class, and his command was firm. He didn’t look strong and only had four rings, but his amazing piloting skills were enough to make up for it. He only had four rings in his fourth year, so it was highly possible that he wouldn’t be able to enter the Inner Court. But even if he couldn’t enter the Inner Court, he was definitely a treasure. It would be best if he couldn’t. Even the military didn’t have the qualifications to fight for Shrek Academy’s Inner Court disciples. They could only choose for themselves. On the contrary, for those that couldn’t enter, they could work hard and fight for it.
It was really a lucky chance! They just happened to see his strong piloting skills this time. If they got him, they would at least give him the rank of a captain in a space fighter squadron. The rank of major was probably enough to attract him. He would only be 18 years old after graduating from the Outer Court. An 18-year-old major would definitely be the youngest God Rank Pilot in the Federation.
