This Game is Too Real

   Chapter 398 Lingyun!

   Airport in the north of Dawn City.

   Luo Yu, who had just been resurrected for less than half a month, was carrying the pilot cap he just took from the Teng Teng hut, and was pushed forward by the mosquitoes.

   "What are you doing so mysterious... Where are you taking me?"

   Mosquitoes who were pushing behind him laughed and urged.

   "Don't ask, I'll show you a baby!"

   It's good that I didn't say this, but Luo Yu suddenly became alert when he heard Brother Mosquito's cheap tone.

   What kind of baby can I show him just like this?

  80% want to use him as a guinea pig again!

   And it is.

   The direction this guy took him was the Alliance hangar.

   Seeing the two coming from a distance, the guard on duty at the airport entrance immediately gave a military salute and let them go.

  Whether it's Mosquito or Luoyu, the faces of these two people are familiar to them and can't be more familiar.

   Especially the latter.

   You can often see him taking off, but it is rare to see him driving the plane back, but after a few days, he can be seen alive at the airport again.

   Being able to come back alive after the plane blows up is much more awesome than being able to drive the plane back smoothly!

   didn't pay attention to the adoring eyes of those NPCs, Luo Yu followed the excited mosquitoes with a worried look, and walked into the closed hangar.

   The lights in the hangar come on.

   When he saw the plane parked in the hangar, the expression on his face fell into a sluggish moment, and then he couldn't help exclaiming.

   "Fuck! I'm hasty!"

   Streamlined silver body!

  Twin jet engines!

  The very sci-fi shape design is like a concept aircraft at a model aircraft exhibition, especially the fantastic forward swept wings——

   However, it was at the moment of noticing the design of the forward swept wings that Luo Yu suddenly woke up.

   "This is so special that it can go to heaven???"

   As we all know, in reality, the forward swept wing is a relatively cutting-edge design idea, and it is also one of the more extensive ideas about the sixth-generation aircraft.

The forward swept-wing design wing produces more lift, higher lift-to-drag ratio, lower stall speed, and excellent low-speed handling. Significantly increase the maneuverability of the aircraft!

   Taking the su-47 as an example, it adopts the coupled canard + forward swept wing layout, and can even make a "Cobra" maneuver with an angle of attack of 120 degrees at a speed close to Mach 1!

   Of course, in addition to high maneuverability and handsomeness, the shortcomings of the forward swept wing design are also obvious.

   One of the most prominent ones is that the requirements for materials are too high.

  If the material is not up to standard, maneuvering during high-speed flight will not only have the risk of breaking the wings, but may even lead to the disintegration of the fuselage.

There is a reason why   swept wings are still mainstream, and "advanced" is not the first priority for a war machine.

   Stability is.

   Forget about swept-forward wings and swept-back wings, this thing is a jet plane, right? !

   Even if Luo Yu was killed, he did not believe that Mosquito would install a matching flight control system for this guy.

Do not--

   Whether this thing has a flight control system is a problem! Maybe the only electronic control on this thing is the pitot tube on the hanger head.

   Admiring the stunned expression on the mouse's face, Mosquito smiled and replied unsurprisingly.

"do not know."

  Luoyu: "..."

   Seeing his speechless expression, Mosquito coughed lightly and began to introduce his latest epoch-making products.

   "Don't worry, I have considered all the issues you are worried about. The entire fuselage is made of A3 aviation aluminum material. That thing is for spacecraft. Don't worry about the reliability and strength of the material!"

"Not only that, the anti-radar coating developed by Camp 101 is also painted on the outside of the plane. You can't be much bigger than a sparrow on the opposite radar. I won't talk about the aviation fuel... Anyway, this is The guy is covered in black technology, and it cost me a lot of money to build it!"

   And this is also the product with the highest technology content among all the products that Goblin Technology has developed so far!

   Looking at Luo Yu, who still did not speak, Mosquito smirked and encouraged him.

   "Want to try flying?"

  Luoyu swallowed.

  It is impossible to say no.

   However, the cost of flying once is too great.

   "One time...eight hundred."

   "Damn it! You're ripping off...the deal!" With a painful expression on his face, Mosquito was secretly happy.

   This little money is not enough for him to refuel the plane.

  800 silver coins can buy an Awakened who is not afraid of death as a guinea pig.

   This deal is so good!

  …

   After agreeing to Mosquito's conditions, Luo Yu followed his instructions and received the [Equipment Test] quest issued by Goblin Technology on the VM.

  【Mission: First flight of the jet! 】

  [Requirement: Pass through the Heart of Steel's anti-aircraft fire network]

   After registering the company, players can issue tasks that meet the audit standards according to their business scope and nature.

   This is one of the characteristics of “Wasteland OL” compared to other MMORPGs.

   Looking at Luo Yu who put on the newly bought pilot cap and sat in the cabin with a tragic face, Mosquito patted the canopy and said comfortingly.

   "Don't worry, this big guy is not the result of me alone, it is the crystallization of the wisdom of all members of Goblin Technology! Guarantee that nothing will happen!"

   said, he glanced at the killing **** who was eager to try.

   "Introduce our new products to our warriors!"

  The God of Killing walked forward with a smile.

"okay!"

   Taking a deep breath, Luo Yu tied the VM to her thigh, and while listening to the explanation of the **** of death, she became familiar with the various instruments and control elements in the cabin.

  Out of habit, he subconsciously looked for the switch of the ejection seat, but found that there was no such thing at all, the entire seat was completely welded in the cabin.

   Good guy.

   Where is this fighter.

   is clearly a "special attack aircraft"...

  Unfortunately, there is no military court in this game, otherwise it will definitely be sent to the person who designed this thing.

   didn't notice the strange expression on Luo Yu's face. After introducing the killing **** on the dial, he continued to introduce the aircraft's weapon system.

"...The weapons are mainly the twin-mounted cannons at the front of the nose, which can fire 20mm armor-piercing incendiary or high-explosive bombs, and have good ground-to-air effects, but currently there are only 300 rounds of ammunition, and it is recommended that the weapon insurance be used as needed. , don't hold down the fire button."

  Luoyu couldn't help but spit out a sentence: "What about missiles? They're all jet planes, and they don't even have a guided weapon?"

Killing God: "Well, there are no guided weapons, but you can hang switch knives and unguided rockets! But those are all designed for the W-2 ground attack aircraft. Of course, if you want to use it, we can also give it to you. Hang it up-"

   Before he could finish speaking, Luo Yu refused.

   "Thank you, no need!"

   The speed of the switchblade is too slow. It mainly relies on diving to increase speed, and it requires the cooperation of ground operators. Using that thing to attack air targets is just whimsical.

   After introducing the functions of the various dials on the plane, Shashen continued to point to the push-pull handle next to his right leg.

   "...the grip next to your right leg is the afterburner valve, and the soul of this aircraft. Pushing it all the way to the end will increase the output of the engine to the maximum!"

"There is no data on the specific acceleration, but it is very fast! We have to design this control valve separately! However, we found in the test that after pushing the afterburner valve to the maximum, the engine blades show signs of melting... At present This feature has not been debugged yet, so if you can't use it, try not to touch it yet."

   No supersonic wind tunnel testing.

  There is no flight control computer...

   What is this Vigorous Flying Brick!

  Luoyu: "Anyway, you guys have fixed the bugs before taking them out!"

"That's too late."

  The God of Killing looked at him with a serious look and continued.

   "We also want to design it a little better and then take it out, but the airship on the opposite side has already put the gun barrel to our door... I can only ask you to go to the battlefield to test its performance."

   "Please, try to drive it back!"

   That solemn look is really irresistible...

   Forget it, who wants to be able to drive it by himself.

   It only takes three days to really die.

   Luo Yu took a deep breath and turned on the power of the avionics system.

   "I try my best."

  …

   Above the clear sky.

   "Heart of Steel" floated quietly.

  The towering steel fortress is as stable as a floating mountain, but the observation cabin hidden in the front of the airship is in a hurry at the moment.

   "...The UFO was observed at 116°, the distance was about 10~15 kilometers, and the air column was observed to be more than ten meters long!"

   "Approaching Mach 1, it's heading straight for us!"

   "The sighting system is seriously out of focus, I can't see what it is, it seems like a missile!"

   "The radar did not respond! Confirmed to be an anti-radar device!"

   For a flying object with a speed of Mach-class, whether it is 10 kilometers or 15 kilometers, it takes less than a minute.

   leaves them with a shorter window to shoot, even less than twenty seconds!

   The sergeants in the observation cabin didn't have time to be surprised, and immediately reported the situation to the weapon operator, and raised the alert level to level 2.

  Although I'm not sure what that thing is, since it dares to challenge the authority of "Heart of Steel", it must be ready to die.

  12 100mm secondary guns and 144 medium-caliber anti-aircraft guns are aligned in the wide-angle airspace of 90° to 180°.

   They are not aimed at a point.

   is a whole space——

"put!"

   With a roar in the communication channel, all anti-aircraft weapons that meet the firing angle conditions fire at almost the same time.

   Strings of orange-yellow ballistics spewed out from the airship, woven into airless nets in the air, covering the direction of the UFO.

   At the moment of approaching the airspace near the target.

  The dense barrage like a cobweb exploded, and the smoke, firelight, and fragments of the explosion instantly dissipated into a black cloud that covered the sky and the sun!

  Heart of Steel has no guided weapons.

   Not because they don't have guidance technology.

   but because it is not needed at all!

   A sufficient number of shells is enough to make up for the lack of accuracy, and their proud barrage is enough to tear through everything that comes close!

   Even a fly.

   It is also absolutely impossible to pass through the layers of "nets"!

However--

   Something unexpected happened to the sergeants on the airship.

   I saw the silver trail that was supposed to fall, like a dolphin jumping out of the water, but it actually broke through the black cloud as thick as a city wall!

"What it is!?"

   The main gunner in the gun bay in front of him widened his eyes in surprise.

   He watched helplessly as the silver column of air whizzed past their heads, leaving only an afterimage of sparkling sparks.

   A string of cannons poured head-on on the airship like urination. Although they were all bounced off by the deflector shield, it was extremely insulting.

   Looking at the afterimage galloping away through the screen, General McClen, who was standing on the bridge, flashed an angry look in his eyes.

   "Is that a corporate plane?"

   The adjutant standing by the side swallowed.

   "Big, probably..."

   "Flying here from the east coast?!"

   "Sir, I don't know..." The adjutant said tremblingly.

   He only knows that the technology of the enterprise is very strong.

   But I don't know how strong it is.

  The east and west coasts of the Central Continent span more than 10,000 kilometers, and two completely different versions of a sentence may be spread ten miles away.

   Not to mention separated by such a large land.

   The staff officer standing aside, his eyes were full of solemnity.

   "An aircraft with a range of 3,000 kilometers... If it is a corporate aircraft, their strength should not be underestimated."

   "But their weapons are weaker than expected, and they didn't even scrape off the paint on the outside of us," the adjutant swallowed and added stubbornly, "It just feels like this..."

  …

"Oh shit……"

   "How exciting!"

   Adjusting his chaotic breathing, Luo Yu glanced at the airtight explosion cloud behind him and the airship that was gradually receding, and slowly released the right hand that was holding the afterburner valve tightly.

   The pointer of the speed dial was stuck to the right end, shaking frantically. The speed measurement function of the pitot tube was distorted half a minute ago.

   He didn't know how fast he was at that moment, he could only judge by experience, that speed was at least Mach 3!

   once died on that airship.

  The strong omen of death made him subconsciously make an accelerated judgment, and it turned out that his judgment was indeed correct.

   If he hadn't pushed the afterburner valve at the last minute, he might have been smashed into a sieve by the explosive shrapnel, the kind that can't even leave the slag...

  The black and red gradually faded from the field of vision, and the clear sky in front of him gradually returned to clear. What left him was not only the thick smoke of the explosion, but also the black vision caused by the acceleration overload.

  Luo Yu moved the joystick in his hand and started to return home.

   He could feel that it wasn't just black vision just now, for a moment, he even felt that his eyeballs were about to be pulled out of their sockets.

  Fortunately——

   The physique of the awakened person is not weak, even if it is an agility series sequence, the physique attribute is still two points higher than the baseline value of 5.

   If it was in reality, the other person was probably gone just now...

   Anyway, he succeeded.

   Heart beating wildly, Luo Yu took a deep breath again, calming down his excitement.

  The next step is to drive the plane back...

  …

   Compared to surviving from the dense firepower network, Luo Yu felt that it was more like a miracle that he could land this jet without a flight control system smoothly at the airport north of Dawn City.

  Especially when it was close to the ground, the fuselage shook like a cramp.

   When he stopped at the airport and came down with the ladder, he found that the rear blade of the left engine had melted and deformed.

   But these are small things.

  The final speed test result is that when he pushes the afterburner valve to the maximum, the speed peak is close to Mach 3.7!

  Looking at the car with complicated eyes that only lasted for less than an hour, Luo Yu is really unimaginable, this guy can fly to Mach 3.7 without disintegrating...

   At the same time, next to the airport.

   Two Goblin Tech players were murmuring and communicating.

   One of them is from the intelligence department and the other is from the agility department. They are all newcomers that Mosquito brought in in the Beta version. But rather than being abducted by mosquitoes, it is better to say that they signed up voluntarily and joined Goblin Technology on their own initiative.

   "I didn't expect the design of the forward-swept wings, but it shines first in the game."

"yes."

   "However, according to the restoration of the physical system in this game, I feel that it can provide a reference for research in reality."

"yes."

   "Unfortunately, there is nothing here, and the conditions are better than Africa... It would be nice if we could get a supersonic wind tunnel."

   "Makes sense."

   The agility player rolled his eyes.

   "...you don't just do it, but give some advice."

The    intelligence player sighed.

   "No opinion, I totally agree, but I'm just thinking...the 20mm cannon is completely useless. If you throw low-speed bombs on the airship head, can you break through that anti-Newtonian mechanical shield?"

  Anti-Newtonian mechanics shield, it is players who give that thing a name, after all, the effect of that thing is really difficult to explain scientifically.

   If it's a metal bullet, that's all.

   can also be explained by the Meissner effect.

   But non-metals, irregular projectiles, and even the aerodynamic shock waves generated by explosions can also be "deflected", which is a bit outrageous.

   can only be explained by an overhead setting.

  The agility player replied.

   "If the target is too large, it will be intercepted by the cannon. If the target is small...even if it can break through the deflector shield, the blast shock wave will be weakened by the arc armor, and it will not hurt the interior of the airship at all."

   That intelligence player said helplessly.

   "Sure enough, we still have to rely on ground troops... I always feel that the device designed by Mosquito is a bit messy. Can humans really withstand that kind of pulling?"

   "You don't understand, this is a game after all, and it can't be all the same as reality..." The agility player standing beside him smiled, "Although humans can't, but the animals of the strength and physique systems can."

   A monster with a load of one ton, can it still be called a human?

   Not to mention one ton, more than 500 kilograms is enough to challenge the world record...

  …

  Although the airship still can’t be helped, the jets newly developed by Goblin Technology still gain a certain advantage for the Alliance.

   As the alliance's first "independently developed" next-generation aircraft, its battlefield positioning is to compete for air supremacy, reconnaissance battlefields and medium-distance quick strikes.

   As for low-value targets such as general aliens and predators, the "Mosquito" ground attack aircraft and the "Dragonfly" gunships with longer staying time are better choices.

Players of    Goblin Tech have high hopes for it.

   And Mosquito is rarely used to give it some strange name, but opened a voting post on the forum, and adopted the high-voted opinion, naming it "Lingyun"!

  Although a "Lingyun" can't handle the blood-thick and high-defense Steel Heart, the Iron Heart also can't help the ridiculously fast "Lingyun".

   Breaking the speed limit of Mach 3 is too scary.

   Especially, I don't know what's on the plane. The radar array on the airship can't observe it, so I can only rely on visual search.

   When the observers of the airship found the approaching Lingyun fighter, they often had less than half a minute of firepower preparation time left.

   The barrage has just been fired for a round, and the plane has already gone far with one kick of the accelerator.

  It is like a fly flying beside a giant. It can't hit, and it can't hit, but it disgusts the gunners on the airship.

   And the Stormtroopers cheered.

   Cooperating with the intelligence of the "Pangolin" Centurion, the "Lingyun" that comes and goes like a wind can often bring unexpected blows to the legion's ground troops and key facilities.

   It used to be that the Storm Corps was bombed unilaterally, but now everyone is bombing each other, which is a big improvement.

   The battle situation on the front line is gradually becoming clearer, and the players who exchanged the battle situation on the forum are also happy day by day, and various salacious operations emerge one after another.

   However, as a manager, Chu Guang did not have much optimism in his heart at this moment.

   The reinforcements from the east coast have not yet arrived, but they have to wait for the emergency from the west...

   If he were to say which of the known forces in this land troubled him the most, it would undoubtedly be the legions of the west coast.

   They are not only ambitious, but also regard everything around them as barbarians, and they can hardly resolve their differences through exchange of interests or negotiation.

  Now the life and death of the crew of the Pioneer is unknown. Vault 0 seems to have become the center of gravity of the storm. The Legion has already invaded Sunset Cloud Province, and it seems that a second expedition is brewing.

   And the southern part of the Vale Province...

   But there is no "Holy Shield" protection.
