Just as the two fighter jets reveled in their satisfaction at seeing the target destroyed, three cutting-edge F25 fighters, the latest addition to the Cynean Air Force, streaked in at supersonic speeds from the northwest.
“Falcon One, enemy fighter spotted, requesting permission for free attack,” the lead pilot quickly reported to the base upon seeing the blips on the radar.
“Falcon One, command from the top, do not let the enemy fighter leave our airspace, free attack approved.” A command swiftly came through the earpiece.
The three special pilots instantly felt exhilarated. The pilot inside the leading fighterjet quickly said, “Falcon Two, Three, initiate the free attack. Make sure not to let the two Darkit’s fighter jets escape”
With that, the three state-of-art fighter jets swiftly separated and gained altitude.
With perfect coordination, they approached the two Darkit’s fighter jets that were rapidly trying to escape.
Meanwhile, as Isaac and his companions landed in the water below, several black Jeeps raced through the desert, kicking up clouds of dust toward the inland lake.
After Lucas, Willis, and others got out of the vehicles, they immediately pulled out their binoculars and spotted Isaac and the others floating on the water.
“Hurry and rescue them!” Lucas’s heart pounded, and favonovel.com rushed madly toward the lakeside.
Just as Isaac and the others were pulled up by Lucas and his team, two loud explosions echoed in the distant sky.
Isaac looked up toward the southwest and saw that the blue sky was illuminated by the fiery aftermath of the explosions. Several streaks of flames descended to the ground.
“Did they get them?” Hera asked, drying favonovel.com clothes with spiritual energy as favonovel.com looked up at the sky.
Mitchell snorted, “They’re bound to face death since they dared to venture into our territory. House of Custos is still powerful, it seems.”
“Drakon, are you okay?” Willis approached Isaac and supported him.
“I’m fine. Go back to the camp. Also, take Black Phoenix to the Cloud City Surveillance Station. Make sure Harry goes to Cloud City, too!” Isaac ordered.
Then, favonovel.com walked over to the weary Black Phoenix and said in a deep voice, “It’s urgent. You’ll have to work while recovering.”
“Drakon, don’t worry. Black Phoenix won’t die! Even if I have to die, I want to see Elliot dead first!”
“Don’t waste time. Let’s move quickly!”
Isaac, Hera, and Todd got into Lucas’ car while Willis escorted Black Phoenix toward the helicopter.
***
After two hours, the two Jeeps arrived in front of two large tents. They were in a valley, with higher terrain on three sides providing covet
Upon entering the first tent, they immediately laid out a tactical map on a long table. Lucas and the others gathered around, pointing to a red dot on the map. “Drakon, these are the locations of the uranium mines… The distance between the three uranium mines is less than six miles, forming a triangle…”
“Colton went to investigate last night. At least 30 thousand Darkit armed soldiers are guarding the mines. There may be more ambushes in more distant areas.”
“Isaac, there are less than ten of us here. Are you planning to face tens of thousands of people with just a handful of us?” Todd’s mouth twitched as favonovel.com asked Isaac.
Isaac remained silent, his eyes fixed tightly on the map, measuring the distance from the camp to the nearest border.
“Let’s wait for Black Phoenix to reach Cloud City first. The rest of you, go and rest.” Isaac closed his eyes and took a deep breath. It was unclear what favonovel.com was thinking.
The problem was obvious. There were tens of thousands of Darkit soldiers guarding the three uranium mines, while there were less than ten people on their side, making it practically impossible for them to attack head-on.
Everyone quickly left the tent, but soon, an angry shout echoed from outside.
“Isaac, you all have a place to stay, but where do I stay?!” Hera stormed in, full of anger.
A bewildered Mitchell followed suit.
Isaac frowned, and Mitchell hurriedly stepped forward to explain. “Drakon, because we left in a hurry, I-l didn’t consider Ms. Claude… We prepared a tent for you and a separate one for the guys. A-And that’s it…”
“So, are you suggesting that I sleep in the desert outside?” Hera was furious.
Mitchell scratched the back of his head, looking innocent. “Ms. Claude, there are only two tents available right now. Either you squeeze in with the guys, or… Well, there’s Drakon’s side? He stays alone, and the space is a bit more spacious, isn’t it?”
