Chapter 266 266:Intercepted
Gwen was about to stand up and ask what was going on but Irina held Gwen\'s hands and pulled her down.
"Mom...Brother...."
"Shut up and sit here."Irina glared at her sharply.
"Keep quiet..."
Sophia felt embarrassed for reacting loudly and whispered.
"Did I hear something wrong?"
Leon looked at her with a loving gaze, "We have been delaying this for too long. Before messing things up, let\'s enjoy ourselves to our heart\'s content."
Thinking this, Leon held Sophia\'s hands and pulled out a diamond ring out of thin air, and put it on her hands…
"Do you want to have an engagement first before proceeding?"
Hearing this, Sophia\'s mind jolted awake, and getting closer to Leon\'s lips she whispered into Leon\'s lips.
"I don\'t mind if we skip directly to the wedding night."
"I do thin...."
Leon paused in his speech and looked outside.
"What happened?"Sophia asked curiously and looked outside only to be startled.
"What the hell?"Leon screamed aloud
Soon everyone inside was alerted by loud sonic explosions and an announcement rang.
Sophia\'s expression was particularly darkened. If looks could kill someone, she might have already killed a few.
"Sir, we have a fighter jet targeting us."
Leon blinked in confusion.
The aircraft runs on spiritual stones. And it can make them reach Aurorica in the span of a few minutes but Lia ordered them to go slow and enjoy the journey instead of hurrying.
"Grandma.."
Lia ignored Leon\'s curious expression and muttered, "Deploy the Plasma shields. After some time, open the passage for the young ones to have some fun."
...…
The sky was painted with hues of orange and pink as the sun began its descent, casting long shadows over the rugged terrain below.
The atmosphere was peaceful and serene yet it was broken by the sound of explosions.
VROOM!VROOM!VROOM!
Leon\'s aircraft was surrounded by a formation of sleek fighter jets, hovering around them.
The deafening roar of engines filled the air as the jets closed in circling the huge airplane.
Inside the cockpit of one of the lead jets, the pilot\'s tense expression was illuminated by the glow of instrument panels. Through the radio, he addressed his wingman. His voice was crisp and authoritative despite the urgency of the situation.
"Pilot to Wingman, this is Alpha One. We have the target in sight. Prepare to engage."
"Wingman to Alpha One, copy that. Weapons standing by."
The pilots expected the crew inside to be stunned in disbelief and filled with tension.
Getting bombarded in the air was a sure way to kill unless the target was a Martial Saint who could fly.
"Fire at will. Let\'s end this."
As the fighter jets closed in on their target, the lead pilot\'s finger hovered over the firing button, as commanded by the others. With a steady hand, he pressed down, unleashing a volley of missiles that streaked through the sky.
VROOM!VROOM!VROOM!
SWOOSH!
The piercing sound started resonating.
The air was filled with the roar of engines and the fiery path of the missiles as they closed in on their target in the span of a few seconds.
In a blinding flash of light, the missiles found their mark, engulfing Wood Jet in a storm of fire and smoke.
The shockwave reverberated through the sky as the explosion illuminated the sky, casting a haunting glow over the turbulent clouds. At that moment, time seemed to stand still as the pilots watched the destruction unfold, their mission accomplished but at a heavy cost.
"Fire more…Fire until nothing is left."
With a deafening roar, the jets unleashed another barrage of missiles, streaking through the sky like fiery comets. The ground trembled beneath them as explosions lit up the horizon, casting an eerie glow over the landscape.
As the flames engulfed the jet, the storm of fire raged on.
Amidst the turmoil, the lead pilot managed to establish a connection with Ye Chen.
"Command, this is Alpha One, do you copy?"The pilot\'s monotonous voice echoed.
Static crackled over the radio before Ye Chen\'s voice finally broke through, "Alpha One, what\'s your status? Report!"
"The mission is accomplished,"
He spoke in relief but just as he finished his speech.
BOOM!
A fiery trial struck the aircraft swaying it over the cloud.
"AHHHHHHH!"
"MAYDAY!MAYDAY!I have been hit."
"We\'re under attack, Sir! Something... something\'s tearing through our jets! We can\'t hold on much longer!" The pilot\'s words were blurred by screams of fear and horror as the fiery figure wreaked havoc upon them.
Jumping over the window shield, the figure broke through it and pulled out the pilot who kept on screaming.
"Asshole!"A piercing wrathful voice erupted from her.
"How dare you! How dare you interrupt when I was talking about something important?"
The pilot\'s eyes widened as he saw the familiar as it was none other than one of their target Sophia.
"HOW?"
Instead of answering, she pulled the man and jumped out of the aircraft crashing downwards.
A shadow Griffith appeared under her feet and howled upwards towards the other.
Ye Chen\'s heart sank as he listened to the chaos unfolding on the other end of the line of crashing aircraft "What\'s going on?"
But before Ye Chen could speak, the radio fell silent, replaced only by the howling of the wind and the distant rumble of thunder.
The other pilots were stunned for a moment seeing the Captain of the squad crashing down and in stupor looked at the sea of flames.
Their eyes almost popped out seeing a barrier deployed across the jet protecting from the damage.
"What the fuck?"
"It\'s an advanced 12 Generation Spacecraft. How did it get the permission to operate here?"
The spacecraft with laser weapons were highly controlled and if a fight started to occur it would ensure heavy casualties.
The time to ponder about this was sadly short.
Suddenly, a deafening roar pierced the air as flames erupted around them, engulfing the wings of the jets in a fiery inferno.
Before they could react, something slammed into them, sending the aircraft into a violent spiral.
Through the chaos, a figure emerged from the flames, her body bathed in fire. With bizarre strength, she tore through the windshield of one of the jets, her eyes blazing with fury.
The fighter pilots scrambled to defend themselves, but they were no match for her that had descended upon them.
With a swift motion, the woman launched them out of the cockpit, their bodies tumbling into the abyss below.
"Escape! Let\'s escape!"
The remaining ones thought of escaping but to their horror, they found a sea of flying beasts surrounding them like a net and when they tried to escape, the beasts with their bodies crashed into them breaking their wings.
With no other measure, they fought by firing missiles to get out alas…
As the last remnants of the doomed aircraft vanished into the stormy sky, Sophia flew over the aerial beast and entered.
"Hey, as you said I kept one alive."Sophia smiled waving her hand
Behind her, a Griffith threw a man dressed in a fighter suit sending him tumbling on the floor.
The man getting out of his dazed state, screamed"You can torture me or kill me but I will never speak.."
He gritted with a dark visage anticipating torture but in the next instant.
BANG!
An ice prick stabs his neck.
"Useless."Irina snorted and eyed Leon, "You do have a way right."
"Yes!"Leon nodded but hesitated to awaken this guy as this guy was just a Martial Disciple.
"No need!"A grim voice came from inside.
Everyone turned their gaze toward Lia who just glanced at the man indifferently.
"It\'s that boy Ye Chen."
"That guy is itching for a beating, "Leon cursed and called Avelin, "Change the order, bring.."
"Stop!"Lia interrupted Leon\'s speech.
"I have some business with the Rothschild. This incident would be quite useful to exchange a few things. That guy isn\'t worth much. You can get rid of him later after I finish my business."
Leon frowned as a sudden realization hit him.
\'Holyshit!It seems this old woman planned all this. She\'s gonna surely milk the Rothschild.\'
