Steel steam and flame

The barrage formed by the aerial bombs was almost connected with orange tails, and the bright orange light illuminated this large space. The rain curtain was shattered into water mist by pieces of aerial bombs, and then the burned gray mist turned into white steam, mixed with the gray smoke behind the tail, covering up the clouds behind it.

It is not a general-purpose aerial bomb, and its diameter is nearly 1.5 times larger. The black coating on the top of the warhead also turned into a red that reflected light. It is a distinctive reinforced type of ammunition, usually used for large-scale ground bombing. Its speed exceeds the speed of sound, and the thunder is suppressed by the explosion of air.

Nearly ten thousand aerial bombs rushed out of the clouds relatively neatly, indicating to Cassia that there was an enemy airship fleet around.

"Did you rely on the powerful reconnaissance machine on the fleet to lock my position?" His thoughts were spinning rapidly. This is what Cassia must think clearly now. Aerial bombs are only the most basic configuration of the weapon system of an airship fleet. There are also more powerful weapons such as main guns and secondary guns. I had seen their huge gun barrels in my first dream. When I was studying in the military school, their detailed data had already been firmly recorded in Cassia's mind. Once one is locked, the power of these projectiles, which mostly reach speeds above three times the speed of sound, is enough to threaten one's own safety.

I thought it was a sensory experiment used by the enemy not long ago, but Cassia was always paying attention to her own sensory state. The kind of sensory phenomenon that affects the body has not appeared for a while.

A bolt of lightning penetrated the rain curtain and covered the tail of the missile, pulling Cassia out of her thoughts. A twisted current column with a diameter of more than one meter poked out from the clouds and connected to the ground in a short time. The air above the path was broken down, and the rain curtain was evaporated to create a vacuum belt. The escaping current could also make Cassia feel the sting of being affected even though it was hundreds of meters away.

Feeling that he had touched the clouds and paying attention to the entire sky within this space, Cassia continued to dive and was bound to enter the forest. When she was still a few hundred meters away from the canopy, Cassia spread out her black wings. When the canopy below was pressed into a concave shape by the strong wind, it instantly turned back at an acute angle and rushed high into the sky again.

In less than two seconds, a current beam appeared from the darkness ahead, parallel to the tree canopy, spanning more than ten kilometers, and accurately penetrated the range where Cassia had just been. Then, two huge fireballs exploded one after another when the current beam disappeared, and the impact quickly passed through Cassia.

At this time, in front of the place where he was about to attack, several gray and white lines cutting through the rain curtain seemed like helpless dead leaves that were swept into the storm. They traced wonderful trajectories every moment, and were finally captured by Cassia. . At the speed of the red-tube aircraft, they set off from the airship fleet and had already gone to the front to carry out the task of intercepting and hindering Cassia.

The speeds are all above the speed of sound, but Cassia understands that Cassia's black relative to the red-tube aircraft cannot last too long. There is an enemy airship fleet above the clouds behind them, and they must be waiting for the right moment. Staying a little longer in this mid-air realm is tantamount to adding several more layers of danger.

Ahead, six red-tube aircraft alternately cut through the rain curtain under the rain clouds, roughly forming a standard formation in the shape of a six-pointed star, and quickly moved closer here. The orange-red light of the aerial bombs overflowing behind Cassia was like a tide, and the speed was getting faster and faster. At this moment, it also had the momentum to catch up with him.

If there were only a dozen aerial bombs, Cassia wouldn't have to worry about them. Facing the number of aerial bombs blocking the rain clouds behind her, Cassia had to pay some attention to them.

"As long as we break through the blockade and interception of the red-tube aircraft in front, we can use many methods to detonate the aerial bomb in advance." The distance between the two was shrinking at a visible speed. Cassia raised his head at this time, looked around and focused his sight. On the rain cloud layer, "There is something else that is parallel to me above the rain cloud layer, waiting for the opportunity to fall."

"Are they the two remaining giant dragons?" The rain cloud layer is an interference layer for Cassia. Perception can only detect the freezing air gathering in it, but there is no possibility of penetrating through it.

The red-tube planes intertwined in front, gradually revealing a body that was as long as Cassihei. Mechanized aerial killers, war machines that hunt airships and adult dragons, have never been light and small gadgets.

The jet's tail flame has also been processed, and the light it emits is extremely weak, barely penetrating the rain curtain. In addition, the red-tube aircraft has not yet entered a real combat state at this moment. As a combination of biology and steam dynamics, its power system is also in a mixed state and is divided into several different related parts. In order to ensure concealment during normal cruising, a power system has been specially designed for it and equipped with a matching energy source. In combat, in order to seek speed and flexibility, you need to have huge thrust in an instant. At this time, the main power source is a hybrid power system of biology and machinery. Although its energy source was not explained in the theoretical knowledge of the military school, I saw the dark red tail flame in the afternoon, and coupled with the information about the red-tube aircraft known in Cassia's mind, its energy source can basically be locked into a solid state. Red mercury. However, there is also a possibility that it is the driver's own blood, or concentrated dragon blood.

The minimum requirement for pilots of red-tube aircraft is to start with three stages of surgery, and they need to have corresponding surgical abilities to have the possibility of flying it to high altitudes. The training time is also based on a standard cycle of ten years. The development of corresponding surgical projects was completed during this period.

The distance soon reached several thousand meters, and Cassia released some control at this time, letting Cassie Hei take charge. Afterwards, you need to concentrate on analyzing the wartime situation. You cannot be negligent, otherwise you and Cassie Hei will suffer unnecessary harm.

Suddenly, there was a regular vibration from the communicator that Cassia had kept at her waist. That was a set of code words agreed upon before coming to the southern forest.

"Ten minutes." The vibration only revealed a brief message, but Cassia knew that if the message was not from the Ato Ring, it would have come from the Ato Ring.

"It seems that they have encountered some troubles over there." Atuohuan led Ye Jielin's airship fleet and followed him. Cassia was aware of this when they did not show up when the enemy fleet began to attack her own.

"Ten minutes..., there is no possibility of delaying it. We can only annihilate it as much as possible to get more buffer time. The enemy's fleet should be a long way away from here, otherwise it is impossible to rely solely on energy. When attacking with aerial bombs, we need to maintain speed and keep the distance from the rear aerial bomb group. The red-tube aircraft in front is to obstruct and intercept me. Although it is equipped with anti-air weapons, the heat tracking guidance has no impact on me and Cassie. Black is not a threat..."

"...Those lightning-like current pillars...there must be more than one 'electric eel' among these six red-tube aircraft. I wonder if there are other types of aircraft among them?"
