#765 - Chapter 765: Will Captain Li die?
Before Yao Lei could check the results of her heavy sniper shot, she was tackled by a familiar figure!
The next moment!
"Boom—!"
A deafening explosion erupted again beside the airship!
The third missile struck!
The cumbersome airship was utterly unable to defend against such terrifying weapons designed specifically for aerial combat. Even if the pilot exhausted all the airship's potential, they couldn't escape the missile's attack range.
Yao Lei's ears rang, but her body only suffered minor pain from the impact, nothing serious.
As for Li Bowen, who was on top of her, he was in a much worse state.
His back and side were covered in burns and wounds, injuries caused by shrapnel and the shockwave from the close-range explosion.
"Captain!"
Yao Lei cried out in grief, her eyes welling up with tears.
"Can you still shoot!!? If you can, do it again!!"
Before she could say anything, Li, the captain, cut her off, covered in blood.
The danger hadn't passed. The helicopter in the distance didn't seem to have lost power from the heavy sniper shot. Then continue!
Otherwise, they would all die here today!!
After saying that, he picked up the heavy sniper rifle that had fallen in the cabin and rested it on his blood-soaked shoulder, his blood-reddened eyes fixed on the helicopter still trailing behind them!
Yao Lei didn't respond, resolutely wiping away the tears from her eyes with a quick swipe of her hand, silently raising the heavy sniper rifle and aiming at the enemy again.
She could still vaguely see the patch of red on Captain Li's shoulder from the corner of her eye, and a tearing sensation spread through her heart.
Eliminate the enemy!!
Avenge the captain and the other injured comrades!!
She focused all her attention on the helicopter following in the distance. The next shot had to take out the enemy!
At this moment, Green Source combat team members were lying scattered inside the cabin, most of them injured by the earlier missile strike.
Some members were struggling to get up, holding their weapons and continuing to fight back, but even machine gun bullets couldn't inflict effective damage on the distant enemy.
At a distance of over a kilometer, even rifle bullets had lost most of their kinetic energy and couldn't penetrate the opponent's armored hull.
On the other side.
In the cockpit of the Fuhai Base helicopter, a large bullet hole was clearly visible in the transparent glass!
Inside, in the co-pilot's seat, an unlucky member of the Fuhai armed forces had a large hole torn through his chest and was lying in a pool of blood!
Yao Lei had originally aimed for the pilot, but at the critical moment, the pilot, perhaps saved by fate, shook the helicopter's control stick, causing the sniper bullet originally meant for him to hit his companion instead!
"Fuck!!"
He almost died!!
If he didn't have the habit of shaking the fuselage to adjust the weight distribution after completing a missile launch, he would have been shot dead by the high-powered bullet just now!
With lingering fear, he turned his gaze away from his unlucky companion, took a deep breath, and aimed at the airship in the distance again.
Absolutely unforgivable!
Kill them!!
The Wuzhi's targeting system was very advanced, especially when dealing with airships, flying objects that were easily tens of meters long and wide, making them a huge target.
Only one air-to-air missile remained!
They had to take them out with the next shot, otherwise they would have to rely on flying closer and using forced detonation for close-range combat, a combat method that would undoubtedly put them at a disadvantage.
Without needing instructions from Captain Sun of Fuhai Base behind him, the pilot, who had almost died, pressed the launch button hard after completing the lock-on!
*Pfft!*
With a long trail of flames, the last missile rushed towards the Green Source airship in the distance.
At the same moment.
Yao Lei, who had completed her aiming, pulled the trigger of the heavy sniper rifle again, a bullet carrying the hatred in her heart rushing towards the armed helicopter in the distance.
The two artificial objects, one large and one small, intersected in the sky three or four thousand meters above, each carrying the hatred in their master's heart towards the enemy!
This time, the speed of the heavy sniper bullet was undoubtedly faster, hitting the connection point of the armed helicopter's rotor in flight behind it before it could be observed by the human eye!!!
*Bang!*
Sun Youcai clearly felt a slight jolt under his feet. Before he could speak, he felt the balance in the cabin was broken, making it impossible to stand steadily.
Hit?
How could it be!?
Filled with deep doubt, he didn't even have the mind to watch whether the last missile had succeeded, and was busy grabbing the items in the cabin to secure himself.
The Wuzhi began to emit black smoke and spiraled downwards in a sideways direction!!!
On the other side.
Seconds earlier, the missile launched by the Wuzhi had also reached the airship, and this time it was even closer to the cabin door!
Li Bowen's pupils shrank to the size of a pinhole. He only had time to turn around and push Yao Lei behind him before he felt an indescribable huge explosion in his ears!
*Boom—!!!*
The world spun.
The Green Source combat team leader, whose strength was second only to Qin Jin and whose status was extremely high, was blown out of the cabin by the close-range explosion!
"Captain!!"
With cries of grief, several people who were slightly further away from the explosion and hadn't been stunned only had time to shout before they saw their captain fall out of the airship!
It's over!!!!
Almost as soon as they finished shouting, another figure jumped down!
It was Yao Lei!!!
After being pushed down, she quickly reacted. When she saw the figure she secretly admired in her heart fall out of the airship, an indescribable panic and despair erupted like an explosion.
Without time for grief, she made a decision in less than half a second!
Her body leaped up, her right hand grabbed a parachute pack hanging on the cabin door, and she jumped out of the airship to chase after the unconscious figure!!
The two figures quickly disappeared into the vast clouds.
The Fuhai Base armed helicopter in the distance was still spiraling slowly in another direction.
Judging from its wobbly appearance, it would definitely not be able to last long. In the end, it was unknown whether this enemy who suddenly appeared and attacked Green Source would crash to their death.
As for the airship, which had been hit by four missiles, even after various repairs and reinforcements by the Green Source base, it couldn't hold on any longer.
Before the members inside the airship had time to grieve, Liu Qing, sitting in the driver's seat, roared:
"Everyone hold on tight!! The control device of our airship has been completely destroyed and we can't control the direction. We can only let it continue to fly forward!!"
"Pray! Hope that some of us can survive the crash and bring the news back to the base!!"
This core member, who had been following Li Bowen since the beginning of the apocalypse, gave a miserable smile and slumped into the driver's seat as if he had lost all his strength.
The airship had completely lost control, and three of the four airbags were severely damaged. The remaining one couldn't support them for long.
Moreover, the area hit by the missile was still on fire.
This aerial vehicle, which had created various merits for the base, was about to enter the last moments before its fall.
Liu Qing didn't know if the captain and Yao Lei, who had fallen, could survive.
But now, even whether the Green Source members in the cabin could survive was unknown.
Only three of the dozen or so parachute packs originally hanging in the cabin remained. The rest seemed to have fallen out due to the multiple missile strikes earlier.
At this time, there were five seriously injured and four slightly injured people in the cabin.
He only hoped that someone would survive in the end and bring the news of their attack back to the base!
Avenge the captain and himself and the others!!!!!!
