Chapter 67: Get out of the way and let me handle it!
These people certainly wouldn't know that the reconnaissance plane suddenly accelerated earlier because its level had increased. It can now be called a first-level reconnaissance plane.
Unlike regular units, the way to upgrade a reconnaissance plane is calculated based on the distance it flies.
To upgrade to the first level, it must fly one thousand kilometers. Don't think this is easy. Only this one reconnaissance plane out of ten can fly one thousand kilometers safely. It's very difficult.
Once it encounters any danger, the reconnaissance plane may be destroyed. It has no attack capability.
As for why the reconnaissance plane is so cool, it's naturally because of Su Chen's good deeds.
There are two modes for the reconnaissance plane: automatic mode, which is like its previous appearance, and manual mode, which is controlled by Su Chen.
Su Chen didn't expect that the reconnaissance plane could still be manually controlled.
When a control lever similar to an arcade game appeared on his chair, he was stunned.
Not only that, but the interface in front of him also changed to the perspective of the reconnaissance plane, which was quite interesting.
Su Chen was having a great time, but City Defender's face was as black as ink. With so many people, they couldn't even take down an unmanned reconnaissance plane. If their superiors found out, he would definitely be criticized.
"Get out of the way and let me handle it!" City Defender felt that these people's level was too low, so he was ready to take action himself.
Before becoming City Defender, he was a famous Cannon expert in Base City, known as Cannon Brother.
City Defender came to an anti-aircraft Cannon with a manual control and used an auxiliary device to aim at the reconnaissance plane while making predictions.
In an instant, he pressed the button, and a Cannon shell flew towards an empty space.
"Did City Defender slip? Why is the position so far off?"
"Others might slip, but City Defender definitely won't. Don't you know that when City Defender was young, he was known as Cannon Brother? No matter what flying thing you were, you would come down if he fired a Cannon."
"Wow, City Defender is so powerful?"
"Of course, don't talk nonsense. Watch and learn from City Defender's skills."
Just as Su Chen was having fun, the system prompt sounded: "Master, a Cannon shell is flying towards the location where the reconnaissance plane will pass. The collision event is three seconds away, two seconds..."
Su Chen was surprised that someone could predict his next move based on his actions. This person was really talented.
If it weren't for the system prompt, the reconnaissance plane he was controlling would definitely have been blown up, but now...
The reconnaissance plane was clearly flying forward, but suddenly dropped down the next second, did a Thomas loop, and turned in a circle, narrowly avoiding City Defender's Cannon shell.
"Impossible!" City Defender gritted his teeth. Did Cannon Brother actually miss?
He was very sure that if it were an ordinary unmanned reconnaissance plane, it would not have been able to dodge. In that case, someone was remotely controlling this reconnaissance plane?
"Pass my command. Let some people go out and search for the person remotely controlling the reconnaissance plane. Based on the current level, that person's range of control over the reconnaissance plane definitely won't exceed three kilometers."
Since the world underwent a mutation, some things have been weakened to varying degrees, such as cell phones that used to have signals everywhere before the Apocalypse. Now, only Base City and its surrounding areas have signals.
Once you're a little far from Base City, your phone becomes a brick.
City Defender sent people out to find the person controlling the reconnaissance plane. Little did they know that Su Chen was remotely controlling the plane from over a thousand kilometers away.
Su Chen realized that the enemy's cannon fire was useless against him. So, he quickly made the reconnaissance plane fly to the other side of Base City to open all the city maps. This way, he had two Base City maps on his interface.
When City Defender saw this, he gritted his teeth and said, "Contact the Helicopter team and have them shoot down the reconnaissance plane!"
At this point, City Defender knew he had lost face. After all, as City Defender, his duty was to defend against external enemies, and this reconnaissance plane was his target.
But he couldn't handle it and had to request help from the Air Force. He could already imagine how he would be ridiculed by them in the future.
Although face was important, position was even more important. He didn't want to lose his position because he let a reconnaissance plane go and was caught by the higher-ups.
In less than ten minutes, Su Chen saw five Helicopters flying towards him, trying to destroy the reconnaissance plane. Of course, Su Chen wouldn't let them succeed.
So on that day, many people in Base City saw a reconnaissance plane flying in circles with five Helicopters, running from one side to the other, making people dizzy.
"Damn, why is this reconnaissance plane so fast?" cursed the people on the Helicopters.
They thought this was an easy task. After all, they were just going to destroy a reconnaissance plane. Besides, they could also ridicule the City Defense Force in the future. This made the Helicopter team very proud.
But after flying up, they opened the Helicopter's speed to the maximum and still couldn't catch up with the reconnaissance plane. They couldn't even catch up, let alone shoot it down.
"Captain, the reconnaissance plane is too fast. Should we let the Fighter Jet team take action?" one person asked their Captain.
The Captain slapped him and said, "Who do you think you are? Don't I know this?"
The Captain's face looked a bit ugly. The Fighter Jet team and their Helicopter team were not the same. They were peers and enemies, and the importance of the Fighter Jet team was above them.
For example, in this case, the Helicopter team could be mobilized at any time, but if the Fighter Jet team wanted to take action, they had to ask the higher-ups for approval. Without approval, no one had the right to mobilize the Fighter Jet team.
After a while, the Captain knew that they couldn't go on like this. He started to contact the higher-ups and told them what was happening.
"Waste! You can't even handle an unmanned reconnaissance plane. Get out of here, and I'll have the Fighter Jet team take action."
After being scolded by the higher-ups, the Captain had no choice but to comply. He looked at the twisted reconnaissance plane in front of him and said through gritted teeth, "Retreat!"
As the Helicopters left, Su Chen lit up all the maps of Base City even more recklessly. With the speed of the reconnaissance plane, he could light up all the maps in less than half an hour and prepare to leave.
Just then, black shadows came from afar, flying at high speed. These were the Fighter Jets that Base City had been keeping in reserve!
To deal with the reconnaissance plane, the Fighter Jets had taken action. No one thought that the reconnaissance plane could continue to be so troublesome.
