The number of Globalized Type 3 drones above the army of the Four-Handed Respiration Sin City was steadily decreasing. The Dragon Country army relied on these diminishing drones to keep real-time track of the movements of the Four-Handed Respiration Sin City.
Although many Globalized Type 3 drones were used in World 3, making them appear ordinary, Major General Hua Deyun had previously learned about their cost. Even with the resources from the Dinosaur World and technology from the Magic World, these Globalized Type 3 drones still cost millions of Dragon Country currency.
Despite knowing the high cost, Major General Hua Deyun didn't care and used them as needed. After all, these Globalized Type 3 drones could be manufactured again if shot down. It was even better if they could reduce casualties among Dragon Country soldiers.
The army of the Four-Handed Respiration Sin City also detected the approaching Dragon Country army via radar.
At this moment, Major General Hua Deyun gave the order: "Artillery attack."
Rows of artillery shells flew out of the gun barrels.
Subordinate Number 3 of the City Lord, seeing the dense cluster of artillery shell indicators on the radar, said, "Alright, they are not far now. They are indeed using artillery to attack. Everyone, prepare for defense!"
All the hover vehicles promptly aimed their cannons at the distant sky.
A dense barrage of artillery shells appeared in the sky.
The hover vehicle cannons of the Four-Handed Respiration Sin City army immediately unleashed lasers and energy blasts.
The firepower from the Four-Handed Respiration Sin City army this time far exceeded their previous capabilities. Therefore, facing this storm of artillery fire, a large number of shells were detonated in mid-air by lasers and energy blasts. Some shells that did fall also destroyed many hover vehicles.
Subordinate Number 2 of the City Lord looked at the radar and said, "Alright, they are not far now. They have used so many aerial vehicles to scout us and are attacking with these parabolic shells. It's time for us to deploy our aerial vehicles. Aircraft in the sky, sortie and attack the enemy. Cover us. Next, we will charge forward and crush the enemy!"
The Four-Handed Respiration aerial vehicles, which had been flying at normal speed, began to accelerate forward.
Hua Deyun immediately dispatched unmanned combat aircraft to engage them.
These unmanned combat aircraft were larger than the Globalized Type 3 drones and carried more ammunition.
Dragon Country's technology in unmanned aerial vehicles was already very advanced, so using unmanned combat aircraft in these battles could reduce the sacrifice of Dragon Country soldiers.
The unmanned combat aircraft were faster than the Globalized Type 3 drones, but their endurance was inferior.
The unmanned combat aircraft quickly encountered the hover aircraft. The Dragon Country unmanned combat aircraft immediately attacked the hover rotor-wing aircraft with missiles.
The Four-Handed Respiration hover rotor-wing aircraft immediately retaliated with energy blasts.
As the two sides exchanged fire, the hover rotor-wing aircraft quickly gained the upper hand.
The physical missiles of the unmanned combat aircraft were all destroyed by the direct-attack energy weapons.
After one round of combat, the unmanned combat aircraft were quickly wiped out, while only one hover rotor-wing aircraft had been destroyed.
These hover rotor-wing aircraft that broke through the defense line flew over the Dragon Country army's defense line.
"Attack!"
Anti-aircraft guns targeted the hover rotor-wing aircraft in the sky.
The hover rotor-wing aircraft switched to laser mode and attacked the Dragon Country defense line, focusing on the Dragon Country artillery positions.
Explosions erupted in the Dragon Country positions.
Dragon Country soldiers used trenches to take cover from the surrounding explosions and retaliate.
At this moment, Major General Hua Deyun was in an underground command post behind the lines.
"Our unmanned combat aircraft are still not as powerful as those Four-Handed Respiration combat aircraft."
Hua Deyun did not issue further orders. The previous commands had already been given. The Dragon Country soldiers outside would follow orders, and with the accuracy of their firepower, they would eventually shoot down the Four-Handed Respiration aerial vehicles given enough time.
Soon after the first wave of attacks by the hover rotor-wing aircraft, they passed through the Dragon Country army's defense line.
Just as the Dragon Country soldiers, watching the Four-Handed Respiration combat aircraft fly past, were about to relax, the Four-Handed Respiration aircraft in the sky performed a drastic maneuver, flipping over and returning. This maneuverability far exceeded that of Dragon Country's fighter jets.
After returning, the laser weapons on the hover rotor-wing aircraft continued to attack the ground below.
Explosions once again erupted within the Dragon Country lines.
The colonel in charge of commanding the anti-aircraft artillery regiment, watching the hover rotor-wing aircraft fly overhead, shouted, "Shoot down those enemy planes! Fire the shells inscribed with magic formations!"
The anti-aircraft guns continuously fired shells, including some inscribed with magic formations.
After the colonel's order, the anti-aircraft artillerymen switched all their shells to those inscribed with magic formations.
At this moment, the pilots of the hover rotor-wing aircraft in the sky, who were Four-Handed Respiration, saw that the shells below were not hitting them, and began to mock Dragon Country over the comms.
"Hahaha, those weapons below are truly backward. They don't even have energy weapons and still want to hit our hover rotor-wing aircraft?"
"Exactly, this is a technological crush!"
"..."
Immediately, a barrage of shells combined with magic formations flew upwards from below.
The Four-Handed Respiration pilots in the hover rotor-wing aircraft continued to fly according to their usual habits, trying to evade the shells.
The magic formations on these missiles suddenly accelerated. After all the missiles accelerated together, the laser defense on the hover rotor-wing aircraft could only shoot down some of the missiles. The other missiles, taking advantage of this opening, bypassed the hover rotor-wing aircraft's laser defense and struck their hulls.
Flames of explosion erupted, and half of the hover rotor-wing aircraft were shot down.
The remaining hover rotor-wing aircraft pilots immediately controlled their aircraft to ascend. But the second wave of anti-aircraft shells arrived. The hover rotor-wing aircraft's laser defense again missed a large number of shells.
"Bang"
"Boom boom..."
After another round of explosions, only two hover rotor-wing aircraft remained. The Four-Handed Respiration pilots dared not stay any longer and immediately piloted their aircraft to flee. They were terrified and knew that staying longer would be suicidal.
