Chapter 913: Scattering Radiance in the Sky
Chapter 913: Scattering Radiance in the Sky
As soon as the Sunrise Operation commenced, the external field domain communication in the White Bird Zone was instantly blocked by the Mother Spider.
As an independent region, even with external communication cut off, they had their own backup bio-field connectivity network, ensuring smooth internal communication.
This place was akin to a miniature version of the Central City.
Moreover, due to this sudden situation, the entire region's defense mechanisms were triggered. The locally established security forces and the numerous combat creatures entered a state of alert.
Soon after, the observation post detected a formation of combat airships heading their way, and the night sky echoed with the slow-descending air defense alert. Searchlights illuminated the sky.
The defensive measures on the White Bird Central Building and various skyscrapers were all activated. Countless lights converged, illuminating the entire area through the torrential rain. Anti-aircraft cannons on the ground aimed upwards, while the 24-hour standby combat airships took off urgently.
At this moment, the combat airship formation carrying Chen Chuan had just flown past the Flying Bridge. The observation personnel on the airship saluted and reported, "Sir, a combat airship unit is heading towards us and has sent a message inquiring about our intentions!"
Chen Chuan glanced into the distance, where five airships were approaching them, but they appeared inferior in terms of altitude and model compared to their own.
Their batch of combat airships were all newly built, not only fast but also highly defensive, and equipped with the most advanced weapons in the country. In terms of long-range strike capabilities, they surpassed the airships in the White Bird Zone.
The only threat to the Central City was the remaining monster airship of the Municipal Parliament. However, according to the latest news, this airship had been captured on the takeoff platform at the first opportunity.
Chen Chuan said, "Transmit a message to the White Bird Zone. Due to the discovery of a high-risk organism illegally entering the Central City, according to the resolution of the Central City Security Decision Group, we will execute a purge operation. Any personnel and armed forces obstructing this action will be considered rebels against the Government Hall. Those who come forward with information and cooperate with the Government Hall will be granted leniency. Unrelated personnel should stay indoors and refrain from going out to avoid being affected by the combat."
"Yes, sir!"
The residents of the White Bird Zone included a small number of Municipal Parliament members, some long-term foreign government officials in exile, and primarily executives and management from domestic and foreign companies, as well as representatives from various countries, including the Union delegation.
At this moment, the message transmitted from the combat airship was immediately received by the airships above and then relayed to various locations in the White Bird Zone.
Upon receiving the message, Mr. Chi's expression changed. The term 'high-risk organism' was merely a euphemism to avoid causing panic.
Undoubtedly, this referred to the active consciousness entity sent by the Union.
It was impossible to completely conceal this news. He had mentally prepared for the Government Hall to find out, but the problem was that even if the Government Hall knew, they would usually pretend not to know for the sake of maintaining stability in the Central City, as long as the active consciousness entity did not enter the Central City District. Moreover, the Municipal Parliament would try to cover up this matter, as this active consciousness entity was of utmost importance to them.
But why had the situation suddenly turned like this?
He couldn't help but think of a possibility, his pupils constricted, and his heart sank. If it were indeed as he suspected, it would be the outcome he least wanted to see.
He stood still, his expression changing, and then quickly made his way to the upper level of the villa, reaching the large terrace on the fifth floor. He looked out towards the distant team of combat airships, visible through the rain due to his implanted eyes.
The Interface Token in his ear sounded, "Sir, the delegation has sent a message seeking your opinion."
Mr. Chi frowned, "What is the delegation's opinion?"
"They do not acknowledge it. They believe the Government Hall is bluffing and would never risk destabilizing the Central City by engaging in combat with an active consciousness entity. Even if it's just damaging the White Bird Zone, the impact would be too great.
This time, only seven airships have come. Even if our airship model and weapons are slightly inferior, we have a large number of air defense fire networks. According to the regional management agreement, as long as there is no clear evidence, we have the right to shoot them down if they enter our airspace without permission."
As he spoke, another message arrived: "The White Bird Zone defense forces are in position. Anti-aircraft weapons and combat creatures are ready. The regional security forces will ensure your safety and protect your property from damage."
Mr. Chi relaxed a little, reassuring himself that perhaps the situation hadn't reached that point yet...
Meanwhile, the unrelated delegations from various countries and the accompanying news personnel all felt that a major news event was about to unfold in Jinbei Central City on this rainy night. They aimed their field domain recording equipment at various locations, pushing field creatures outside, braving the rain, to capture the moment.
On the airship, Chen Chuan sent the message and quietly waited.
Ten minutes passed in a flash.
Below, there was no positive response, and instead, they were warned that if the airships continued to approach, the White Bird Zone would retaliate within the authorized defensive range.
Chen Chuan, holding the Snow Lady Sword, rose from his seat and stepped out of the airship cabin, making his way to the outside balcony.
He then stepped onto the balcony, watched by numerous armed personnel on the airships, and slowly floated towards the White Bird Zone. Meanwhile, something unusual was spotted on the other side.
In the torrential rain, it was hard to make out anything clearly, but as the searchlights swept below, a faint human silhouette seemed to appear. The orders they received were to strike down any foreign objects entering the airspace of the White Bird Zone, so without hesitation, they opened fire.
The anti-aircraft cannons on six airships roared simultaneously, and tongues of flame tore through the rain, ripping the night sky. However, when all the light converged on the figure, it seemed to have no effect, as if all the bullets were absorbed into an abyss without a bottom.
Just then, a burst of light flashed in the sky, so blinding that those observing the situation could not keep their eyes open. After the light faded, everyone stared in astonishment at the sky. The six firing airships had exploded into six massive fireballs, and after a flash, a rumble echoed, shaking the windows, buildings, and surrounding vegetation.
Only then did the people below finally get a clear view. The airships had just attacked a person!
This person was now floating in the air, surrounded by a bright glow, their cloak fluttering in the wind. Raindrops fell on them, instantly evaporating.
After the explosion, the airships were now falling, carrying ash and debris, scattering onto the roads and buildings below. It was as if a fiery rain had fallen on the White Bird Zone.
Everyone witnessing this scene was left in awe, and the foreign news personnel went wild, frantically pointing their recording equipment towards the sky. However, the domain creatures seemed to sense danger and curled up, unable to function properly.
