Chapter 908 – Stealth Mode
TL: BluVerse
Once again, assurances were given to Lei Junze before seeing off this senior. Lei Junze was quite accommodating to them, exchanging all the acquired Dragon Source Crystals for the maximum amount of Skyfighter Points directly. Of course, there was no increase in the completeness of this mission.
Lei Junze had his own thoughts; he was surprised by the degree of attention shown towards Lan Xuanyu as revealed by Wang Tianyu. Towards this junior, he also had deliberate intentions of befriending. Therefore, within his authority, he chose to turn a blind eye.
The initial gains were quite substantial, enough to elevate Lan Xuanyu and his group to Level Four Skyfighters. They were likely the youngest Level Four Skyfighters in recent years. The main act was about to begin, and the most critical moment was approaching.
This time, Lan Xuanyu allowed his companions a full twelve hours of rest and fully replenished all supplies for the Skywing Mechas before leaving the Dragon Source Planet Base once again. Thirty-three Skywings, thirty-three fighter jets, gathered together and flew towards the misty area.
The fighter jets flew in the high skies, not heading straight for the misty area but rather wandering on the periphery under Lan Xuanyu’s lead, observing the situation below.
As Lan Xuanyu had anticipated, although the number of Source Dragons near the base had drastically decreased due to their cleanup, in areas further away within the cleaned zones, new Source Dragons had already appeared.
These Source Dragons indeed seemed endless!
“Everyone, activate stealth mode,” Lan Xuanyu ordered.
A faint ethereal light appeared on the surface of the Skywing fighter jets, causing a slight distortion in the surrounding air. The fighter jets continued to fly in the air, but only a faint shadow remained.
This was the technology of the Tang Sect, a new feature of the Skywing Mechas after multiple adjustments and evolutions.
The stealth of the fighter jets was similar to that of stealth warships, both relying on some special properties of light refraction to achieve invisibility. Coupled with a special coating on the surface of the mechas, it could shield a certain degree of spritual detection, radar, and visual observation.
The latest Federal Ghost Fighters also utilized this technology. Naturally, all thirty-three Skywing fighter jets were generously equipped with it. Compared to the Ghost Fighters, the Skywing fighter jets were superior in noise reduction and could conceal themselves as much as possible even from a sound perspective.
After activating stealth mode, the thirty-three Skywings no longer circled around but headed straight towards the direction of the mist.
The misty area was almost at the other end of the Dragon Source Planet relative to the base. Even at full speed, it took them nearly five hours to gradually approach.
They hadn’t ventured this far during their previous battles. Scanning downwards through the radar at this moment revealed a large number of Source Dragon groups, some of which were quite powerful.
The advantage of stealth was evident at this moment. Coupled with their flight at eight thousand meters above the ground, the Source Dragons below didn’t detect their presence.
Lan Xuanyu piloted his Skywing fighter jet at the forefront, and from afar, he could see a vast expanse of gray in the distant sky. It didn’t seem like mist but more like a gray-black haze. According to the information from the base, this gray color was composed of metallic dust, which was why it could block various detections.
As for how this metallic dust was formed and what it was concealing, that was the purpose of their exploration this time.
As the distance closed in, Lan Xuanyu issued orders for the other Skywing fighter jet to hover outside the mist and wait. He intended to enter the exploration alone first.
The internal situation of the mist was unknown, and his control over the fighter jet was the strongest among them all, giving him the best chance of retreating safely. His companions were to provide external support and be ready to assist at any moment.
The most suitable for the exploration were only him and Tang Yuge. As the squad leader and also the leader of the thirty-three Skywings, Lan Xuanyu naturally had no other choice.
The thirty-two Skywing fighter jet spread out in all directions. Lan Xuanyu’s Skywing fighter jet also slowed down, gradually approaching the mist.
Just as his Skywing fighter jet entered the range of the mist, a piercing alarm sounded suddenly. Lan Xuanyu was startled; with the connection between his Battle Armor and the Mecha, he was now integrated with the Skywing. He immediately felt various unstable fluctuations in the Mecha’s data. Moreover, within the mist, there seemed to be a force of repulsion, slowing down his flight speed.
This is…
The Skywing fighter jet became unstable, with a risk of falling at any moment. Lan Xuanyu didn’t dare to be careless; he released his soul power outward, forming a protective shield around the Skywing Mecha, isolating it from the mist.
Only then did the Skywing fighter jet stabilize, but Lan Xuanyu found that his soul power was depleting rapidly.
A magnetic field!
Within the mist formed by these metallic debris, there was a powerful magnetic field. Upon entering this magnetic field, all electronic systems would immediately be heavily interfered with. In other words, this was almost a restricted airspace. Mechas would experience significant interference here.
At that moment, a piercing scream resounded, followed by a flash of light shooting straight towards the direction of Lan Xuanyu’s Skywing fighter jet from the waving mist.
The range covered by the light was vast, and it seemed that Lan Xuanyu was about to be unable to dodge it.
With an excited dragon roar, the Skywing fighter jet instantly transformed in mid-air, turning into the form of a Skywing Mecha. Golden scales appeared on the surface of the Mecha, and at the same time, fists were thrown out, colliding with the beam of light.
A powerful impact force made Lan Xuanyu’s Skywing Mecha recoil backward. Within the mist, a flying Source Dragon over ten meters long had emerged, and beams of light continuously shot towards Lan Xuanyu.
Lan Xuanyu frowned; he had been discovered! Undoubtedly, it was because of the mist. Upon entering the mist, not only was the stability of the electronic systems affected, but the stealth effect was also lost, making them visible to the Source Dragons.
However, this mist couldn’t affect his spiritual perception. He immediately sensed that there were many unknown creatures approaching him from within the mist, and a sense of danger emerged instantly.
Without hesitation, a tan-colored light condensed and burst outward, forming a wall-like existence behind him. He then controlled the Skywing Mecha to instantly transform back into the form of a fighter jet, changed direction, and accelerated with full force, rushing out of the mist.
Undoubtedly, this mist was the home ground of the Source Dragons. The abundant metallic elements inside boosted the combat power of the Source Dragons. Just now, even the Level Seven Source Dragon posed some threat to him. Moreover, within this mist, Mecha control would also be severely disrupted, the number of enemies was unknown, and they would be detected. It was better to withdraw first.
Although entering the mist was only for a short time, Lan Xuanyu had already gathered a lot of useful intelligence.
The Skywing fighter jet sped up; he didn’t spend much time inside, almost accelerating sharply, and had already rushed out of the mist.
Upon exiting the mist, he could naturally see the situation below. Lan Xuanyu found that there were already a large number of Source Dragons gathering towards this direction below. Without delay, the fighter jet accelerated again, soared upwards, and as it rapidly ascended, the stealth device was activated once more.
Behind him, more than thirty flying Source Dragons roared out, relentlessly chasing after him. Surprisingly, all of these Source Dragons were above Level Six, with Level Seven ones being the majority.
The stealth effect gradually manifested. With Lan Xuanyu’s full-speed acceleration, it was a combination of soul power and the Mecha’s energy boosting the speed. As the distance gradually widened, those Source Dragons lost their lock on him.
Lan Xuanyu opened the team channel. “Can you hear my voice?” He wasn’t sure if his communication had been disrupted by the magnetic field interference.
“I can hear you.” Soon, a voice came back, confirming that his communication had returned to normal after leaving the mist.
