Chapter 351: Change on Mount Everest

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The next morning, in order to reach an agreement with the military factory as soon as possible, Ye Jianyuan had already left with Shen Mengwei overnight.

Chen Yiming and Chen Yingying weren’t in a hurry, so they planned to return on the luxury plane after dawn.

“You can’t use the complete extraordinary weapon now. After some thought, I’ll help you keep it for the time being to prevent anyone from having designs on it.”

Before boarding the plane, Chen Yiming asked Chen Yingying for the flail.

“Alright!”

!!

Chen Yingying took out the flail and handed it over reluctantly.

The flail had been with her for just one night, but she couldn’t sleep well at all. She even had a nightmare in which someone had taken advantage of the fact that Chen Yiming wasn’t at home to steal the flail.

“This is also for your safety. There’s no need to create a hidden danger,” Chen Yiming muttered as he took the flail.

“Then can I choose again before you get rid of the small sword and shield?” Chen Yingying pouted and asked.

She felt that the flail was more suitable for her, but she had never used it before in actual combat. It was just what she thought. Now, an opportunity to make a new choice was in front of her.

“Sure.”

Chen Yiming agreed immediately.

How much of the materials in the small sword and shield were suitable for remaking into extraordinary weapons was still unknown. They needed experts with experience to study them.

Therefore, Feng Tao successfully dissuaded Chen Yiming from destroying the two supernatural weapons.

Of course, this was just a temporary decision. In Chen Yiming’s eyes, the two extraordinary weapons were useless and he would have to get rid of them sooner or later.

“Wait a minute!”

Just as Chen Yiming and Chen Yingying stepped onto the stairs, Feng Tao’s voice sounded from afar.

Feng Tao ran over anxiously. There was a hole in the leather shoe on his right foot. It was unknown what he had kicked, but he did not have time to change it.

“A large number of flying mutant creatures have evolved in the Ganges Kingdom overnight. The futuristic fighter jets are being surrounded.”

Feng Tao ran to the front of the stairs. Before he could catch his breath, he said something surprising.

Before the air force command set up the plan for the first combat drill, they had considered the situation of the fighter jets being chased by a large number of flying mutant creatures.

After all, because of the materials used to make the fighter jets, they had high attack but low defense. They could bully the weak, those who could only move on the ground, and those who could fly but were not very agile.

However, if they encountered those who happened to be able to overcome the weak defense of the fighter jets, it was hard to say what the situation would be like.

Therefore, the bombing plan was set outside the border of the Ganges Kingdom. There were very few mutant creatures there, so even if something happened, it would not be easy to be trapped by them.

“Evolved overnight?”

Chen Yiming frowned. This way, the mutant creatures couldn’t be underestimated.

Since they could evolve into a form that could fly, there was a high chance that they could also burrow into the ground. The Ganges Kingdom was really a burden.

The matter of returning home could only be put aside for the time being. The three of them quickly headed to the command center.

As soon as he entered, he saw that the front of the first futuristic fighter jet was damaged. The steel spikes that had been fused with the fragments of the extraordinary weapons cracked and fell from the sky.

The scene of the second fighter jet was beside it. The sky was filled with mutant flying creatures chasing after and intercepting them. There were mutant humans that had grown wings, mutant birds that flapped their wings, and so on.

“The pilot must have tried to launch an attack with the power of nature in a hurry, but there were issues with his control.” Chen Yiming could tell that something was amiss.

Of course, the materials used to make the extraordinary weapons could withstand the power of nature. It would not be a problem for it to be used roughly.

However, the reforged extraordinary weapons to which humans had added materials from the blue planet were prone to accidents. While it had terrifying power, it was also a ticking time bomb.

The first fighter jet had not disintegrated in midair, and the cockpit was still mostly intact. This meant that there were very few flaws in the pilot’s operation of the plane.

“Where are the fighter jets now?”

Feng Tao’s loud voice echoed throughout the control center. Seeing such a dangerous situation, he only wanted to save the futuristic fighter jets as soon as possible.

A staff member in charge of tracking their location got up from his desk and ran over to report, “The mutant flying creatures seem to be trying to force the fighter jet towards Mount Everest. The current distance is still more than 100 kilometers away.”

Was there a problem at Mount Everest?

Hearing this, Feng Tao wasn’t the only one who thought so. Chen Yiming thought so too.

There were hardly any traces of humans there. If there was really a problem, it would be very difficult for humans to notice it immediately.

Feng Tao’s forehead was covered in cold sweat, and his fists were clenched so tightly that they made cracking sounds.

The futuristic fighter jets were the treasure of the entire Daxia Kingdom’s air force!

Unexpectedly, they had successfully returned from the actual combat training last night, and this joy had not even lasted for a day before something went wrong on their second reconnaissance mission.

In his heart, he cursed all the ancestors of the higher-ups of the Ganges Kingdom.

If not for the fact that the Ganges Kingdom had been invaded by the mutant creatures, there would not have been a need for the fighter jets to immediately set off on a reconnaissance mission once they were repaired. Naturally, they would not have been surrounded by the mutant flying creatures.

“Use the parachutes!”

At this moment, a voice sounded from the control center. Chen Yiming made a suggestion.

When the hundreds of staff members in the control center heard this, their hands froze, as if someone had pressed the pause button.

Parachutes?

This meant that they would stop fighting and give up on the futuristic fighter jets.

From the movements of the mutant flying creatures, their target was undoubtedly the fighter jets. There was indeed a small chance that the pilot would survive after the jump. However, they were soldiers, and they had to wait for their orders.

Now, it all depended on Feng Tao’s decision.

He was the person in charge of the Southwest Air Force Base and the final decision-maker while the futuristic fighter jets were carrying out their mission. The command center in the capital had already given him full control over the mission.

“Is there really no chance of rescuing the futuristic fighter jets?” Feng Tao snapped out of his daze and asked Chen Yiming in a trembling voice.

Actually, he had already made a judgment in his heart. With the behavior of the mutant flying creatures and the speed of the futuristic fighter jets, it was already too late to try to cover the distance of 100 kilometers.

However, he still had a glimmer of hope.

Chen Yiming shook his head.

He was good at using his strength in combat, not rescuing others.

At the same time, if he spoke, it might shock the others. It had to be known that he did not even care about a complete extraordinary weapon, let alone a few fragments of one.

As time passed, the atmosphere in the control center froze.

Feng Tao finally made a decision and ordered the two pilots to jump out of the planes.

If they could not protect the fighter jets, taking a step back, they had to protect the pilots. The experience they had gained from piloting the futuristic fighter jets was also very important.

…

Half an hour later, an ordinary fighter jet flew past the border of the Ganges Kingdom.

Feng Tao jumped down from the cabin with a parachute on his back, while Chen Yiming jumped down from the sky. The two of them landed in the forest one after another.

“Fortunately, nothing happened.”

After landing, Feng Tao unbuckled his parachute and heaved a sigh of relief.

Chen Yiming narrowed his eyes and turned in the direction of Mount Everest.

Through the layers of obstacles in the distance, he saw that it was already completely covered by the red fog. However, he could not understand what had happened inside.

The red fog had appeared when the futuristic fighter jets fell towards Mount Everest. At that time, the cameras on the fighter jets had recorded the scene and sent it back to the command center before the signal was lost.

After the two pilots jumped out of the planes, just as they had expected, the mutant flying creature ignored them and continued to chase after the futuristic fighter jets.

Only when the two futuristic fighter jets fell into the red fog did the mutant flying creatures disperse.

At the same time, the appearance of the red fog forced Feng Tao and Chen Yiming to change their plan.

Chen Yiming had originally planned to barge into the Ganges Kingdom to save the people. However, they didn’t know anything about the red fog. Since it was related to the mutant creatures, it had to be related to the arrival of the black tide.

When it came to the arrival of the black tide, he could not be rash.

Feng Tao took out a map and a compass and checked them. “The landing point of the two pilots is about 50 kilometers west of us.”

“Let’s go!” Chen Yiming retracted his gaze and said.

Without staying put for long, the two of them quickly moved through the forest one after another. They planned to find the two pilots first.

At that time, the futuristic fighter jets were flying in the direction of Mount Everest. Perhaps they had seen something.
