Chapter 552: Chapter 552: Thrills Off the Charts

"We’re in range. Who wants to take the shot?" the pilot of Fighter Two chuckled, not taking the private plane before them seriously in the slightest.

"No, no, no! I love taking out small fry like this one. It’s mine, Number Two," the pilot of Fighter Four said with a laugh, his tone equally dismissive.

"That’s not fair. How about this? We play rock-paper-scissors for it. Winner takes the prize," the pilot of Fighter One proposed with a smile.

"I agree," said the pilot of Fighter Three.

The four of them actually started playing rock-paper-scissors. Incredibly, the winner was the pilot of Fighter Two, the very one who had spoken first.

"Haha, sorry, guys! It looks like fate wants me to take this one down. You all can rest," the pilot of Fighter Two laughed, his mood excellent now that he had won the right to take down his prey.

"Damn it, what kind of bullshit luck is that?" the pilot of Fighter One muttered, clearly annoyed. The pilots of Fighters Three and Four felt the same, but since they had lost, they wouldn’t go back on their word.

"Here I come!" the pilot of Fighter Two laughed, then launched a missile.

The instant the missile was fired, Mu Wan yanked the plane upward, causing it to ascend abruptly by over a hundred meters. In a flash, the missile missed. Meanwhile, the private plane performed a rapid halt high in the sky, its speed plummeting. As its speed dropped while the four fighters maintained their velocity, they naturally closed the distance. By now, the private plane Mu Wan was piloting was over a hundred meters above the four fighters, and Lin Kuang stood right at the cabin doorway, watching.

He was preparing to deliver a fatal blow, and now, the time was ripe.

Looking at the fighters diagonally below, Lin Kuang sneered, lifted his foot, and slammed it against the cabin door.

BOOM!

With a powerful kick, Lin Kuang sent the massive cabin door flying off its hinges and plummeting downward. From over a hundred meters up, and given the door’s immense weight, it fell with incredible speed, reaching its target in the blink of an eye. Truthfully, Lin Kuang would have been thrilled if the door had just managed to hit one fighter and cause it to crash. But what happened next was even better.

The hefty cabin door smashed hard onto one of the fighters, causing it to instantly lose its balance. Perhaps due to the pilot’s panic, the destabilized fighter veered head-on into one of its wingmen.

BANG!

The two jets collided, immediately erupting in a terrifying roar. A dazzling fireball shot into the sky as both fighters exploded and then plummeted toward the earth.

Damn, my luck is insane! Could it be that even God doesn’t want me to die? Lin Kuang thought to himself, absolutely elated.

Although he was elated, he hadn’t forgotten his mission: take down all four fighters. With that in mind, he aimed his rocket launcher at another fighter’s cockpit and fired without hesitation. A rocket tore through the air and slammed into the jet.

BOOM!

The fighter immediately caught fire, exploded, and plummeted toward the ground.

At this point, the pilot of the last remaining fighter, Number Two, was completely dumbfounded. He was already furious that his missile had missed the private plane. Now, in the brief moment he was stunned, all three of his wingmen had exploded and crashed. The pilot of Fighter Two was completely shell-shocked. So much had happened in the blink of an eye that even with his quick reflexes, he couldn’t process it all. But he snapped back to reality when he saw Lin Kuang, high above him, loading another rocket. The eyes of the Fighter Two pilot turned red with rage.

"Damn you! I will destroy you!" he roared, his eyes bloodshot.

The next moment, Fighter Two shot upward and fired a missile directly at the private plane’s tail. Piloting the aircraft, Mu Wan saw the incoming missile on her radar. Her expression was incredibly calm, even showing a hint of excitement. She pulled the control stick fiercely, and the private plane went nearly vertical, shooting straight into the sky.

Lin Kuang’s feet seemed nailed to the floor. As the plane went vertical, his body became parallel with the ground, yet he remained standing perfectly straight, seemingly unaffected by gravity.

As the private plane shot skyward, the missile missed once again.

Seeing this, the pilot of Fighter Two was livid. He was a well-trained fighter pilot, yet he couldn’t even destroy a civilian private plane. The blow to his pride was immense. How could he possibly explain this to his squadron? It was an utter humiliation. Thinking this, he climbed again and launched another missile at the private plane.

This time, Mu Wan couldn’t dodge. She was only human, not a god. No matter how skilled a pilot she was, this was still a civilian plane, not a fighter jet.

"Lin Kuang, it’s up to you! Take it down!" Mu Wan cried out. She had absolute, almost blind, faith in him. She knew he could do it.

And Lin Kuang didn’t disappoint her. The moment the enemy launched the missile, he already knew the plane wouldn’t be able to evade it. After all, Lin Kuang also knew how to fly; how could he misjudge the situation? Therefore, he already had the rocket launcher propped on his shoulder.

As the missile closed in, Lin Kuang fired.

BANG!

The rocket shot out at high speed. Instantly, the missile and the rocket collided.

BOOM!

A deafening explosion ripped through the air as the two projectiles detonated. Flames shot skyward once more, and the acrid smell of gunpowder even reached Lin Kuang.

Seeing this, the pilot of Fighter Two was stupefied. Damn it, is that even humanly possible? Was that something a person could actually do? 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

At that moment, Mu Wan stabilized the plane while Lin Kuang swiftly loaded his last rocket into the launcher.

One rocket left. This one will finish you for sure! he thought, aiming the launcher’s sights at Fighter Two, ready to fire at any moment.

The pilot of Fighter Two seemed to sense the danger. He immediately called his headquarters for help, quickly recounting everything that had just happened.
