Chapter 904: Air Cushion Gunship

Boom!

With a loud bang, a huge fireball suddenly exploded on the river surface, and mud and smoke covered the sky.

Four motorboats were blown up on the spot, and the mercenaries on the boats were either dead or seriously injured.

The two motorboats a little further away were not directly blown up, but were soon swept by the waves stirred up by the shock wave and turned upside down one after another.

The mercenaries on the two motorboats climbed out of the boats upside down on the river surface and swam to the shallow water area in a panic.

The overturned motorboat had a ruptured fuel tank, and the leaked diesel spread on the water surface, reflecting the sunset and emitting a colorful luster.

The dozen or so mercenaries on the river surface who were eager to paddle to escape were also covered with diesel.

On the catamaran, the special police seized the opportunity to beat the drowning dog, and they used "fire burning technique", "holy fire technique", "scorching ray" and "scorching glory" to attack the Vanderwal mercenaries on the river, and ignited the diesel on them.

All the mercenaries who fell into the water turned into firemen, screaming and drifting with the waves, and eventually they could not escape the fate of being burned to death.

A "magic torpedo" sank six enemy motorboats. Ma Yun was initially quite satisfied with the result, but she regretted it soon after - she should have kept the magic torpedoes to deal with the "big fish" that came later.

Through the diffuse smoke, Gao Fei and others saw an unusually large ship sailing towards this side. On the wide deck, there was even an armored turret!

Around the gunboat, there were 14 motorboats escorting, forming a fleet, approaching aggressively.

Wang Daqing observed the gunboat opposite through a telescope and couldn't help swearing.

"Damn it! VanderWaal is really rich! They actually installed a dual-mounted 127mm turret on the patrol boat. This is too exaggerated!"

The majestic gunboat, with an estimated tonnage of no less than 200 tons, is rampant in the swamp, just like a steel monster.

In contrast, the catamaran that Gao Fei and others took looks like a toy in terms of tonnage and equipment level.

"Don't panic!" Qi Tian tried to stay calm, "The enemy's gunboat is too large and has a deep draft. If it breaks into our waters, it will immediately run aground in the mud and be unable to move. There is nothing to be afraid of!"

"Xiaotian, you are really..." Wang Daqing looked at Qi Tian speechlessly, and he didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Please open your eyes and take a closer look-that's a damn hovercraft! You actually expected the hovercraft to run aground in shallow waters. I really don't know what to say to you!"

"Ah? This..." Xiao Qi was confused, "Maybe it's possible... I'm a bad mouth again, is that what you mean?"

"It's not your fault." Gao Fei patted Qi Tian's shoulder, smiled bitterly and laughed at himself: "To be honest, today is the first time I saw a hovercraft with my own eyes. I didn't expect it to be so huge and equipped with a turret!"

"What's so strange about installing a turret? A hovercraft can also carry tanks!"

Wang Daqing wanted to introduce the difference between a side-wall hovercraft and a full-lift hovercraft to the military illiterates around him, but now he didn't have the time to do so. He quickly gave his teammates a "buoyancy blessing" and prepared to abandon the ship and run away.

At this time, the enemy gunboat, driven by the high-pressure airflow, was almost flying close to the water surface, blowing up waves on the river surface, crushing mud and water plants, and rushing into the shallow water area with a domineering attitude, and the sailing speed was not affected at all.

The turret on the ship slowly turned and aimed at the catamaran, ready to launch an artillery attack at any time.

"Brother Pep, quickly pack up the boat!" Tang Ning said anxiously, "We have to find a place to hide."

Pep nodded, chanted a spell to shrink the catamaran, and everyone landed on the water.

Gao Fei activated the "Invisibility Orb" and led his teammates to walk on the waves and enter a dense mangrove forest near the river.

At this time, the roar of the motor came from the air.

Gao Fei looked up at the sky and saw four drones hovering at low altitude, with the cameras on the fuselage flashing red.

"Damn! Infrared detector!" Wang Daqing looked at the drone hovering above his head with horror, and urgently reminded his companions: "Invisibility magic can't fool the drone's thermal imaging lens. We'd better disperse, lie down on the spot, hide in the mud and water, and reduce the body's thermal radiation level!"

Gao Fei didn't say anything, but his heart was deeply touched.

In the game between magic and technology, this was the first time he realized that the latter also had a chance to gain the upper hand.

Qi Tian made a gesture and ordered the Spider Angel to use the "All Things Transformed into Spiders" skill. Using the floating wood and scrapped motorboats on the water as materials, he created 12 large spiders and rushed out to divert the drones.

These poor cannon fodders were soon bombarded by gunboats.

Redwood spiders or iron spiders were vulnerable to the bombardment of 127mm double-mounted naval guns.

The hovercraft applied fire suppression, and the motorboat troops moved forward in unison. Under the guidance of the drone, they swept towards the mangrove forest where the special police were hiding.

Tang Ning transformed into a flock of birds of paradise, soaring into the sky, making bird calls like the howling of the wind, and commanded the thirteen creepers that she had charmed to form a line of defense to block the river.

The enemy's motorboats were temporarily blocked, but under the bombardment of the naval guns, the defense line formed by the creepers could not hold out for long.

"We have to act separately!" Jiang Feng initiated an initiative in the Xingpan team channel, "Gao Fei and I will try to sneak into the gunboat and seize control, and the others will stay here to deal with the enemy."

"Sister Feng, in addition to the mercenaries, the third-ranked apostle of the Holy Blood Knights, 'Captain' Datai, and his partner, Mud Angel, are probably also on that hovercraft. It's too risky for you and Brother Fei to seize the boat. I'll go with you!"

Ma Yun volunteered.

Ma Tao glared at his sister, wanting to persuade her not to commit suicide, but he felt that saying such words in a critical moment would make him seem too selfish.

He didn't want his sister to risk her life, so did Gao Fei and Jiang Feng deserve to gamble their lives?

We are all teammates who have been through life and death together. You can't say that your sister's life is more precious than the lives of other teammates, right?

After a slight hesitation, Ma Tao turned to Gao Fei and Jiang Feng and proposed that he also join the team responsible for seizing the gunboat.

Although he didn't admit it, everyone could see that Ma Tao took the initiative to volunteer mainly to take care of his overly lively sister nearby.

Gao Fei opened the "invisible magic ball" that surrounded his body for 10 feet and held Jiang Feng and Ma Tao's hands respectively.

Jiang Feng held Ma Yun with his other hand and nodded at her.

Ma Yun made a spellcasting gesture and chanted the spell that represented "road and passage".

"Tié!"

A circle of silver light rose from the ground, covering the four people, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
