Half an hour later.

“Ready.”

“Understood.”

As the command center spoke to the pilots, the two futuristic fighter jets slid along the runway at the same time.

Chen Yiming’s gaze landed on the tails of the planes.

!!

They were made from the bones of powerful creatures fused with the fragments of extraordinary weapons. The power of nature gradually accumulated in it.

“It’s the power of nature related to wind.”

As soon as this thought appeared, a miniature storm spewed out from the tails of the planes.

The violent wind blades provided a powerful force, and the ground on the runway behind them was instantly destroyed, creating a storm mixed with rubble.

“Boom!”

The futuristic fighter jets broke through countless air barriers and soared into the sky in an extremely short period of time.

Unlike traditional planes that slowly accelerated to a predetermined speed before taking off, the futuristic fighter jets moved from a slow glide to breaking the speed of sound in just an instant.

“So fast!”

Chen Yingying and Shen Mengwei exclaimed in surprise.

The others were similarly shocked. They stared at the streams of air in the sky and the black spots that were gradually becoming smaller.

This was the first time they had seen a fighter jet powered by the power of nature. It was a shocking feeling. After this, if they looked at a traditional plane, they would immediately lose interest.

Chen Yiming turned to Feng Tao and said, “The power seems to be at the lowest level. Is the material not up to standard?”

Feng Tao smiled awkwardly and explained, “This is already the best material that the air force can provide. The flight time is estimated to take less than half a day.”

Less than half a day of flight meant that the body of the plane could only withstand about 10 hours of flight.

However, at the speed of sound, even if it was less than 10 hours, it was enough to carry out a bombing mission anywhere on the blue planet.

Chen Yiming suddenly thought of something and asked, “Since the power has been replaced by the power of nature, it shouldn’t be a problem even if we were in the otherworld, right?”

Hearing this, Feng Tao broke out in a cold sweat. He hurriedly said, “Unless they are professional pilots who are half a step away from the master realm, without a ground control center to ensure real-time information exchange, they won’t be able to deal with any sudden situations. If they move, they will be killed.”

Chen Yiming nodded. “I understand. What I mean is that we should only fly at high altitudes. It should be possible to carry out simple reconnaissance missions, right?”

What he had thought of earlier was to get the fighter jets to help investigate the abnormality in the sea of the otherworld.

Feng Tao still shook his head. “In theory, it’s possible, but the flying creatures from the otherworld are not to be trifled with. The fighter jets cause such a huge commotion, we will not be able to avoid clashing with them.”

Chen Yiming wanted to say, “If I provide the air force with the complete extraordinary weapons, can we modify them into fighter jets that can fly freely in the sky of the otherworld?”

However, on second thought, a complete extraordinary weapon was created by a civilization that was much stronger than humans.

Even if it was modified into a fighter jet with his help, it would definitely cause a huge structural change. At that time, it would be no different from the fragments of the extraordinary weapons.

At the moment, it seemed that there were still many flaws in the fighter jets that were pieced together with the fragments of extraordinary weapons.

Under Feng Tao’s lead, the group quickly headed to the command center. There, they could see various real-time images and data.

…

In the command center, as the futuristic fighter jets took off, the hundreds of staff members started to get busy. Each of them was in charge of a certain aspect.

As soon as they entered, they felt a serious and tense atmosphere.

This was the first actual combat practice for the futuristic fighter jets. This was a big treasure for the air force, and it represented the glory of the air force. There could not be any accidents.

In the end, a few additional chairs were brought over. The group came over and sat down.

There was a huge display hanging on the wall in front of them. The display was split into two down the middle. On the left was the feed from the first fighter jet, and on the right was the feed from the second fighter jet.

There were also huge monitors hanging on the left and right walls. A large amount of technical data was displayed on them in real time.

“Is it like this everywhere outside the country?” Chen Yingying asked in a low voice with a look of disbelief.

The huge display in front of him flashed with images of ordinary people, mutant humans, and mutant beasts co-existing in the same area. This was definitely impossible in the Daxia Kingdom.

It was hard to imagine that humans living on the same planet seemed to be living in two different worlds.

The reality weighed down her feelings.

The surroundings fell silent. Other than the staff who were busy, only Shen Mengwei took the initiative to hold Chen Yingying’s hand.

Ye Jianyuan and Feng Tao glanced at Chen Yiming. “You’re protecting her too much. It’s rare to see someone so innocent in this era.”

Chen Yiming raised an eyebrow and sent a message through his mind. “How can you blame me? For example, who decided to report the good news and not the bad news on the New Era experimental ship?”

These words rendered Feng Tao especially speechless.

The current thinking of the higher-ups of the Daxia Kingdom was that everything was for the sake of the space plan. Naturally, they would not let negative news that would affect the public opinion be exposed.

Only those that could not be hidden, such as the shadow monster from last time, had to be reported.

This episode quickly passed.

After revising the plan again, the first task was to gather information about the mutant creatures in the Ganges Kingdom.

The two fighter jets flew openly through the airspace of the various states in the Ganges Kingdom.

The commotion they caused was so huge that it shocked the mutant creatures and threw them into chaos. From time to time, they would try to attack and shoot down the fighter jets.

However, this was all within their expectations. Under the remote command of the control center, the fighter jets could always dodge in advance with their superior speed.

As for the mutant creatures that could fly, for the time being, none of them dared to stop the fighter jets. The terrifying fluctuations of the power of nature were enough to intimidate them on the blue planet.

Not long after,

a staff member jogged over and reported to Feng Tao, “The fighter jets have sent out communications signals to every country they fly past, but even the capital of the Ganges Kingdom has not sent out any response.”

Feng Tao nodded and waved his hand.

The staff member received the order and turned around to jog back to his post.

“It looks like it’s the worst case scenario,” Chen Yiming couldn’t help but say.

The lack of a timely response, the lack of any response at all, and strange responses would all mean that there was something deeper going on. It involved the matter of who was in charge in the Ganges Kingdom.

Feng Tao’s expression was dark as he clenched his fists tightly. In his heart, he was already cursing the ancestors of the higher-ups of the Ganges Kingdom.

After a while, he revealed a shocking piece of news. “Not long ago, the higher-ups of the Ganges Kingdom even called, hoping to participate in the space plan.”

Chen Yiming smiled. “Oh? I wonder how those people will react when I call them.”

This news was too shocking. Even Chen Yingying, who was at the side, could tell that there was definitely something amiss. There was a high chance that there was a hidden motive.

After all, the space plan should have consumed a lot of manpower and resources. It should have been completed using the combined strength of the various large countries on the blue planet.

However, the reason why the Daxia Kingdom insisted on relying solely on the strength of one country was naturally due to various considerations. It was definitely not just a matter of the spaceship not being able to accommodate so many people.

At this moment, Feng Tao’s communication device rang. It was a call from the air force command center in the capital.

He picked up the phone and hung up after a short conversation.

The capital had authorized Feng Tao to do whatever he wanted. He no longer had to prioritize the safe return of the futuristic fighter jets. Instead, he had to try his best to confirm if the Ganges Kingdom had completely fallen.

This was very important to the Daxia Kingdom. If the Ganges Kingdom was completely overrun by the mutant creatures, the defense at the southwest border would have to be adjusted.

It had to be known that their country had a population on the same level as the Daxia Kingdom. If the mutants could not be stopped, the entire South Asia would suffer.

With the resultant chain reaction, the pressure on the Daxia Kingdom would increase exponentially. No one was willing to face a tide of mutant troops. That would be extremely bad.

…

Teli City was the capital of the Ganges Kingdom.

The air was filled with a stench, and flies and mosquitoes were buzzing non-stop. No one knew when the city’s sewage system had stopped being maintained.

This was especially true of the slums in the suburbs. The sewers in the toilets had long been blocked, and they were no longer usable.

However, humans had to relieve themselves. Without anyone enforcing rules, they relieved themselves wherever they wanted. This caused the sanitation in the city to worsen.

“Is that an alien aircraft?”

A head appeared from a trash can, his gaze following the futuristic fighter jets that were flying past in the sky.

“Damn, why don’t they attack those mutant creatures? They created such a huge commotion. They’re going to cause our deaths.”

A head appeared from another abandoned trash can at the side and cursed in a low voice.

“Why don’t we take this opportunity to escape?” one of them suggested.

“Escape? If you want to escape, escape by yourself. It might be even worse outside. At the very least, you can find food from the trash here. Are you going to eat the tree barks outside the city?” The other person objected firmly.

In the entire Teli City, countless pairs of eyes were secretly staring at the futuristic fighter jets that were whizzing past. There were those that were from normal humans, those that were from mutant humans, and those that were from mutant creatures.

The reason why they did not take any further action was mainly because the goal of the fighter jets was unknown, causing both the normal humans and the mutant creatures to observe the situation first.

“Bang! Bang! Bang!”

The sound came closer and closer, and the ground began to shake.

In the blink of an eye, the two heads in the trash can retreated into the bucket and did not move any more.

Before long, a mutant elephant walked down the street with a mutant human sitting on its back.

On the mutant elephant’s trunk, its white bones were exposed. Purple blood vessels were wrapped around it, and the blood vessels were crawling around like small snakes.

The skin on the left and right half of the mutant human’s body was of a different color, as if it was half Asian and half black.

“If you have the guts, fly lower.”

The mutant human pointed at the fighter jets in the sky and cursed, his eyes filled with madness.

The mutant elephant stopped from time to time, letting out a dull grunt.

Then, they continued walking along the street. The purple blood vessels extending from the elephant’s trunk licked away all the traces of blood along the way.

Not long after, the two people in the trash can appeared again after the mutant elephant and the mutant human were far away.

“That was scary. Fortunately, we weren’t discovered.”

One of them had a look of relief on his face.

“Look, the city is better. Once you leave the city, there won’t be a trash can for you to hide in,” the other person said smugly.

“How strange. The two of us have hidden ourselves like this nearly 10 times already, right? Those mutant creatures were really distracted by the smell of trash and couldn’t detect the scents of living people.”

The person in front propped himself up with his hand and looked in the direction that the mutant elephant had left in.

From time to time, screams would ring out from the area beyond his line of sight. He knew that meant the living people hiding there had been found.

There were fewer such screams than before, but they had long since become numb to it. It was no longer like when they first started living in the trash can, when they would tremble in fear every time.

“Who cares? This might be the price to pay for the mutation. Their brains must be different from before. Otherwise, why would those mutant humans be tricked so easily?”

“That makes sense.”

The person at the front sat back down in the trash can and sighed before continuing, “If you ask me, it doesn’t seem like a big deal to get used to it. At the very least, it feels more like home to me than a house.”

“Is there something wrong with your brain too?”

“I’m just expressing my feelings. Don’t take it too seriously. But are we going to live in the trash cans forever?”

“Then do you have a better idea? Do you still want to leave the city?”

“Sigh! Forget it, I’ll stop thinking about it. My head hurts.”
