Chapter 560 - Blow up a Warship (1/2)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Swis.h.!.+”
Chen Fan darted across the surface of the Black Sea; he registered a few missiles piercing through the clouds, homing toward him at lightning speed.
Each of the missiles were a few times faster than the speed of sound; they had covered a few hundred kilometers in a blink. They carried special warheads with highly concentrated TNT; their deadliness was such that Chen Fan didn’t even want to test their power with the protection of the Azure Thearch Longevity Body.
“Slash.”
Chen Fan tapped the gourd hitched to his belt.
A strand of golden light spilled out from the Blade Strengthening Gourd and flew away a few times faster than the speed of sound.
“Pong, pong, pong!”
A series of explosions erupted in the sky; it looked like a splendid fireworks show when seen from afar. A huge flower of death bloomed in the sky after each explosion.
This was just the first wave of attacks to identify his location.
Afterwards, a few Eurofighter Typhoons circled around Chen Fan and locked their rockets onto him. These were fourth generation fighter jets and were more advanced than the F-15. The Air Force knew that Chen Fan had struck down an F-15 before, therefore, the Eurofighter Typhoons had kept a few dozen kilometers distance from Chen Fan at all times.
“Do you think my range is just ten kilometers?”
Chen Fan cracked a smile and conjured an art.
“Swis.h.!.+”
The Sword of Essence Restoring darted across the sky, leaving a golden streak of light behind. It landed on a Eurofighter Typhoon and severed it into halves.
“s.h.i.+t, his effective range is much greater than we had estimated.”
The other pilots were terrified by the turn of events. They pulled up their planes, trying to get as far from Chen Fan as possible.
However, the Sword of Essence Restoring was far too fast for them.
“Pong, pong, pong!”
Chen Fan had downed three Eurofighter Typhoons in a fraction of a second, and only two were able to get away. Chen Fan didn’t want to expose his strength too much, so he turned the blade around and gave up the chase.
In any case, he wouldn’t be able to control the flying sword effectively if it were too far away from him.
Chen Fan kept going after he had finished dealing with the annoying hara.s.sment.
Meanwhile, everyone was shocked and speechless in the European Union’s command room in Brussels. The generals from the european nations were disheartened after seeing Chen Fan’s display of power on the big screen.
“The thing he used to strike down the aircrafts and missiles is something called Flying Sword. The first time he used it was in j.a.pan three years ago. However, it seems that the Flying Sword has become much deadlier and its attack range is wider. It’s terrible news,” General Nord said with furrowed brows.
The Spanish minister for National Defense said with a heated tone, “Order the Navy to stop him with long range shots, don’t let him get close. I need more air support, and make sure to stop him on the sea. Use the biggest gun you have if necessary.”
Chen Fan was unaware that the battle between him and the European nations was being monitored by the satellites in s.p.a.ce.
England, France, Russia, the United States of America and China were all capable of sending satellites into s.p.a.ce.
They had reconfigured their eyes in the sky to focus on the Black Sea. This was the first time any Immortal State Warrior had dared to challenge the military.
Unlike the Russian Armored Motor unit, or the j.a.pan Self-Defense Forces, the EU forces had fully achieved s.p.a.ce-air-ground integration and were able to strike their enemies from a great distance. This was the true modern military power.
“Boom!”
The EU’s Black Sea fleet mainly consisted of frigates and destroyers from the English and French Navy. As soon as they got the order, the HMS Jupiter, a British destroyer, started firing right away.
The HMS Jupiter had a state of art fire-control system and could annihilate any living being within a fifty kilometer area.
“Shoo Shoo Shoo.”
Sh.e.l.ls fired from the HMS Jupiter pierced through the clouds and made a series of whistling sounds as they plunged toward Chen Fan like a blanket. Meanwhile, the other wars.h.i.+ps started firing as well.
Suddenly, the sky rained death onto Chen Fan.
Those sh.e.l.ls landed in the sea, creating ma.s.sive splashes that reached a few meters tall. The firepower of those wars.h.i.+ps was far deadlier when compared to tanks. However, Chen Fan didn’t mind the danger as he went forward to meet the deadly sh.e.l.l shower head on.
“Shu!”
A jarring screeching sound came from the sky.
Chen Fan looked up and saw a ten meter long missile bearing down on him with lightning speed. The missile alerted Chen Fan and made him sense danger.
“Ma.s.sive Ordnance Penetrator?”
Chen Fan’s face suddenly became severe.
The Ma.s.sive Ordnance Penetrator was designed to plunge into the earth and attack subterranean targets. The US military had even invented a weapon that they called the “Ancestral Bomb.” It was able to penetrate sixty meters into the soil and up to fifty meter thick concrete walls.
“Break!”
Chen Fan shot out a flash of Blade Qi at the missile and made it explode in the sky.
However, this was only the start of the onslaught.
