Volume 8: War and Peace Chapter 63: The Battle of Aston (5)
"619 team, climb your heights! Ambush in C22 airspace! ”
"Team 406, keep an eye on your back, get rid of that griffon, that's not what you need to deal with!"
"Xiaole, Xiaole! I've been hit and need to return! ”
"This is the F airspace control team, and a golden-feathered griffin has been found and is engaged in the F06 airspace!"
"This is a ranger, can you guide the target to airspace C?"
"No, there are two ordinary griffons near the target, it's difficult to guide, ask for support!"
"Understood! 221,103, immediately get out of the current airspace, go to the F06 airspace to meet the enemy, and guide the target to C airspace! ”
With the issuance of orders one after another, some changes slowly appeared in the seemingly chaotic air battlefield.
As soon as the Safari Force with Tania as the core entered the battle, the other air combat players immediately felt a noticeable reduction in the pressure on their bodies. For example, once a target with a high evolutionary form such as the Red Flame Griffin and the Golden Feather Griffin appears, it will soon be killed by the Ranger Force, and even if it can't be killed, it will guide these elite monsters to a few specially emptied airspace.
As a result, without the leadership of these elite monsters, the normal griffons were left to fight on their own, unable to flank other players, which made the player's fall count start to increase significantly.
And the ranger force led by Anson Sue has also killed six Golden Feather Griffins and three Red Flame Griffins so far, and achieved 9 crashes in 40 minutes, I have to say that these elite players deserve to be aces in air combat.
However, as the commander, Anson Su was not satisfied with the current results, and in his opinion, until the black feather rage was eliminated, the situation in the air would not change radically.
Compared to 3,500 griffins, nearly 200 air combat teams in seven air combat regiments are still stretched, and although the rebels have not let all of them rise to the skies to meet them so far, the player's stamina and energy will gradually decrease over time, and at that point, the absolute superiority in numbers will allow the rebels to regain air supremacy.
Only by taking out the Black Feather Angry Owl and making the entire griffin legion of the rebels lose this backbone, can they make those griffons lose their fighting spirit, and they can use the advantages of technology and equipment to slowly reduce the number of these griffons to a relatively safe level.
"The teams continue to hunt, but they are not allowed to leave airspace C!" After Anson Sue gave the order, he asked the wingman next to him, "Mei Yali, haven't the various airspace control teams found that guy yet?" ”
"No, father!" Mayali Sue shook her head.
Anson Sue's 605 team is also a very famous air combat team in the Angel's Covenant, and its popularity is almost second only to the 327 team with the "Demons with Silver Wings". This is because the 605 group is the only "father-daughter" combination among all the air combat groups!
As a father, Anson Sue is a middle-aged man in his 40s, he is a retired pilot of the Swedish Air Force in reality, and his daughter Mayali Su is a 17-year-old girl, as a daughter, Mayali has been under the influence of her father Anson since she was a child, and she is very yearning for the profession of pilot, but unfortunately, because of Sweden's national conditions, the number of Air Force pilots is very small, which makes Mayali lose the opportunity to fly an airplane.
But the advent of the world of Entagri allowed her to fulfill this wish in another way, and after joining the Angel's Covenant, Mayali signed up to become one of the first air combat players, and quickly mastered the art of air combat.
In order to protect his daughter, Anson Sue, who originally chose the knighthood profession, resolutely gave up the promising paladin profession, also became an air combat player, and used his experience as a pilot to form the 605 group with his daughter Mei Yali.
For safety reasons, Anson Sue's 605 team has not had many crashes, which can only be considered to be in the lower middle of all air combat groups, but their loss rate is the lowest of all groups, and so far, the father and daughter have only died seven times and lost only three sets of air combat equipment.
Mayali Su has always been obsessed with this, thinking that her father Anson is a coward, but because of Anson's identity and coercion, she can't resist, so she can only practice air combat skills under Anson's protection, hoping that one day she can go out on her own and become a long plane.
In fact, if the whereabouts of Tania Tigurechav were not found, Yu Bin planned to recruit Anson's father and daughter living in Sweden into his hands, but the poisonous bee was lucky to find the place where Tania was imprisoned, which allowed the father and daughter to escape Yu Bin's clutches.
"It seems that we have not put enough pressure on the enemy!" Anson said, "Inform the airspace control teams that from now on, high-level griffons will be included in the targets of the ranger force!" I don't believe that beast will stay in the city and not come out! ”
The griffin is a very proud creature, so far, only the Hammer Dwarves of the Eagle's Nest Mountain have learned how to tame these hunters in the sky as mounts on the continent of Entagre, and it has taken humans tens of thousands of years to just learn how to domesticate them, so that these ferocious air hunters can fight for humans, as for the specific way of fighting, humans still have no complete control.
Therefore, as soon as the griffons leave the cage on the ground and fly into the sky, they will completely rely on their fighting instincts to fight, in this case, a strong enough, highly evolved, and experienced griffin will become the commander of the entire griffin group, and a large number of other ordinary griffons will be led by this griffin to carry out cluster operations with higher efficiency and better cooperation.
Correspondingly, if the leader of the griffon does not appear on the battlefield for a long time, the other griffons will consider it uncourageous and refuse to obey its orders.
So, as long as the rebels still want to control the entire griffon pack with that black-feathered wrath, they will definitely release it again, unless the rebels don't want to compete with the players for air supremacy anymore.
Sure enough, just over an hour after expanding the hunting target, the Airspace Observation Group A, located at the bottom, spotted the Black Feather Angry Owl rising from the city.
"Attention teams! The goal appears! Repeat, the goal appears! Start executing Plan A now! Group 327, direct the target to the C25 airspace! ”
"The 327 group understands! On the way! ”
Tania and Visha turned, and then immediately entered a dive, and thousands of meters away, the Black Feather Fury was rapidly rising into the air.
"This is Airspace Observation Group B! Hunters! There are also six griffons around the target, presumably high-level griffins! ”
"This is a safari! Got it! Anson said to Mayali, "Which groups are closest to the target?" ”
"It's 619 and 111, and the 104 team is in airspace B, and it should be in time."
"Immediately let them assemble in Airspace A and lure those few things that are in the way!" After Anson finished speaking, he controlled himself and headed towards the C25 airspace.
A deadly net slowly opens in the sky, ready to hunt down the prey that falls into the net.
Swooping down at full speed, Tania and Visha soon got close enough to get a visual look at the Black Feather Owl, and the Black Feather Owl, who flew into the sky with a group of younger brothers, spotted the two enemies who had played tricks on it and injured it.
After the griffon grows to a certain level, there are two evolutionary directions, one is to continue to evolve along the route of the griffin, their size will continue to increase, their endurance and physical strength will be greatly improved, and they will also be able to withstand greater elemental power. The other is to evolve to the owl, and the griffin that chooses this evolutionary route will become more ferocious, aggressive and explosive, but more difficult to tame and more difficult to command in battle.
Griffons who choose the previous evolutionary route will generally be controlled by the royal family or the Holy See of Light, and they will be trained to become royal griffins or sacred griffins, such as the one that fought Yu Bin in the Heroes' Cemetery. As a result, there are almost no evolutionary varieties of these two forms in the rebel griffon corps. In order to make up for the lack of combat power, the rebels had to artificially modify the highly evolved form of griffons so that they could lead the entire griffon group in battle.
By feeding some golden-feathered griffons with good potential, you can get a powerful griffon species similar to the black-feathered griffon, but the disadvantage of this is that the success rate is low (after all, it is not a natural evolution), often only one black-feathered griffin can appear in dozens of golden-feathered griffons, and the success rate is almost less than 5%. For various reasons, the mutated and evolved Black Feather Angry Owl could not accept the detailed instructions of the rebels at all, so the rebels could only let it play freely.
After receiving treatment, the black feather angry owl has obviously recovered, at least on the surface, there is no obvious injury, not only the skin and flesh at the base of the left wing are completely healed, but even the abdomen that was badly injured before has returned to its intact appearance, but the feathers obviously can't grow back so quickly.
Seeing the appearance of the enemy, the Black Feather Fury immediately lost its mind, completely ignoring the rebels' orders, and with a wave of its wings, it rushed towards Tania and Visha.
The two girls glanced at each other and ran away without hesitation. In order to hunt down the black-feathered owl, when they returned to the airport more than an hour ago for rearmament, Kasai and Diana made a temporary modification of their bald eagles, removing a large amount of space for storing ammunition and using them to load additional magic crystals, as well as adding new jet circles and drains.
As a result, the flight speed of the two of them increased by 10% on the same level, which was enough for the two of them to maintain the same speed as the Black Feather Wrath at full speed. The extra loading of magic crystals more than doubled the time spent in the air for the two of them.
At the same time, in order to reduce the weight as much as possible, the two of them no longer had any weapons on their bodies except for a combat suit, and only two magic missiles and two magic bombs were stored in the magazine.
In the middle of the chase, Team 327 consciously led the Black Feather Owl to the C25 airspace, and according to the plan, the safari force will have six groups to ambush there, striving to kill the Black Feather Owl directly in the air.
The Blackfeather Owl flew significantly faster than the few griffons that followed it, which made the gap between the two widen a little. And as this distance expanded to more than tens of meters, the three air combat teams led by Team 619 dived at a small angle, directly inserted between the Black Feather Angry Owl and these griffins, and then directly launched magic missiles, successfully attracting the hatred of these griffins to themselves.
They will take the griffons to other airspace to ensure that they do not interfere with the battle during the killing of the Black Feather Wrath.
The angry Black Feather Angry Owl didn't care whether the little brother behind him was dead or alive, he just chased after the 327 group in front of him wholeheartedly. Soon, the two crossed several airspaces and came to the C25 airspace, which was selected by Anson as the ambush site.
It was already five o'clock in the afternoon, the sun had begun to move westward, and a large white cloud was moving right to the side of the C25 airspace.
"The hunt begins! Team 327, act according to the predetermined plan! The voice from the communication magic crystal made Tania nod subconsciously.
The two girls threw a magic blast behind them at the same time, and with the help of the explosion flames to obscure the Black Feather Fury's vision for a brief moment, they controlled the jet circle, and changed from flat flight to vertical climbing.
In the next second, the Black Feather Angry Owl, who directly passed through the explosive flames, immediately noticed the movements of the two, and the angry Black Feather Angry Owl didn't think about it, so he spread his two hands and spewed out a large amount of black smoke from under his wings, and under the impetus of these smokes, the Black Feather Angry Owl actually entered a state of vertical climbing, just like the two of Tania.
Obviously, this kind of flight maneuver is impossible for an ordinary griffon, and the Black Feather Owl is able to do all of this with only one explanation, and that is the black smoke.
"Sure enough, there is still an ability that has not been exposed!" Anson, who was hiding from a distance and observing, said secretly, "406, 221, attack!" ”
In the process of climbing, the 327 team slowly narrowed the climbing angle, and the black feather angry owl who was chasing after them also changed. However, it's not Tania flying around.
Although they were in the process of climbing, they were still heading west, which made them and the Black Feather Fury Owl both head in the direction of the sun!
And anyone who has seen fighter jets in aerial combat in World War II knows how the nose of the aircraft is facing the sun will affect the pilot!
Players can certainly ignore this problem, their windproof glasses themselves act as a light filter, ensuring that air combat players can guarantee a minimum viewing distance even when backlit, but the Gryphon is different!
It is very difficult for the eyes of living beings to look directly at the sun, even if it is a griffin as a sky hunter.
The same is true of the Black Feather Owl, and after changing the angle of climb with Tania again, the dazzling sunlight that pierces into the eyes makes the large flying creature with a black body subconsciously close its eyes.
And this short few seconds of closing his eyes is Anson's chance to stab his sword!
With their backs to the sun, groups 406 and 221 swooped towards the climbing Black Feather Owl. With their backs to the sun, they didn't have to think about the interference of the sun at all, while Tania and Visha did not hesitate to change from climbing to diving, directly out of their original flight trajectory.
The extremely high relative velocity shortens the distance between the two dramatically!
A full 48 magic missiles shot out from the magazines of the four people, and flew towards the Black Feather Fury!
A huge cloud of smoke appeared in the sky!
