"After studying this Goblin Glider, do you think it's waterproof?" Chu Xuan paused, then a faint smile touched his lips. "No problem. Its power system utilizes a legendary magic-based energy source, which is quite different from the Goblin Glider in the original movie. I understand what you mean... So, what's next?" Zheng Zha let out a couple of laughs. "Next? Next, of course, is heading straight for the island from the first movie."

"Hahahaha, after completing the side quests there, we can then tackle the third side quest. This way, this way... we can extract three sets of side quest rewards from a single horror movie."

"Such results are simply too outrageous, hahahaha..." Chu Xuan asked faintly while riding the Goblin Glider, "Aren't you afraid of death? Remember, danger equals reward... Two C-grades nearly killed you. Do you really think the side quests on an island defended by an aircraft carrier fleet will be so easy?" Zheng Zha showed no sign of backing down, laughing heartily again. "If we wanted to pass through a horror movie without any danger... we could just stay put in the luxury rooms of the city. Why bother running around here trying to complete side quests? Rest assured, the moment I decided to resurrect the team members, the moment I decided to desperately seek out side quests to improve my strength, the moment I made those decisions, I had already cast life and death aside... If I didn't have the resolve to die, I wouldn't be standing here now!" As his words fell, Zheng Zha raised his Gatling gun and aimed it towards the darkness directly ahead. Seconds later, two armed helicopters flew out from behind a small hill, their searchlights sweeping restlessly across the night sky.

Seeing the noses of their helicopters about to swing toward them, Zheng Zha gritted his teeth and pulled the trigger on the Gatling gun. Instantly, a half-meter-long tongue of flame erupted, and countless visible specks of fire—the bullets—swept out. The first helicopter immediately began to make paka-paka sounds. In just a few short seconds, the entire side of the aircraft was riddled with holes, and the pilot inside was killed instantly. The helicopter began to spin, diving toward the ground, followed by a violent explosion on impact.

Bawang reacted quickly too. He laughed loudly, raising his tube-style pulse ejector, and fired at the second helicopter which had now turned toward them. That helicopter simultaneously launched an air-to-air tracking missile. However, the missile had barely traveled a few meters before the needle-like projectile from the pulse ejector shot through both the missile and the helicopter, skewering them together. The difference in power was immediately apparent. Zheng Zha had merely caused the first helicopter to crash, but Bawang had only fired for a few seconds before the entire helicopter and its missile exploded simultaneously, with absolutely no suspense, turning into a fierce fireball in the air.

"Hahahaha... Let's begin! Don't worry about anything, don't hold back. The four of us are going to fight through a whole fleet and even sink a battleship... Charge, Chu Xuan, leave everything to us!" Zheng Zha roared with laughter.

The Goblin Glider cut through the air, rapidly moving farther and farther away from the coast. Behind them, a dense swarm of countless massive, bee-like insects continued the chase. Along the way, the ground beneath the group was cleared; any dinosaurs that couldn't dodge were completely enveloped by these giant bees. When the swarm finally dispersed, the dinosaurs had already been gnawed down to white skeletal frames. No matter the dinosaur—even a Tyrannosaurus or a Brontosaurus—in the face of millions, perhaps even tens of millions, of these enormous insect creatures, they offered not the slightest resistance. They were simply sacrifices for the four of them.

Just then, a strange hissing sound came from the Goblin Glider. Chu Xuan fell silent for a moment before stating, "We've been locked onto by radar. We've been located by the satellite system, and cruise missiles are already inbound toward us. Location currently unknown... It seems the Goblin Glider's anti-detection system is working reasonably well. We'll need further improvements later, perhaps integrating the anti-detection system directly with the jamming system, which would allow us to..." Zheng Zha roared up at him from below, "This isn't the time to discuss that! What kind of cruise missiles are they? Ordinary air-to-air missiles? Or something else? If it were you, what kind of missile would you use?" Chu Xuan's voice drifted down from above. "They must have transmitted images of us and the countless giant bees behind us via the helicopters. To kill us, any missile would suffice, but to kill so many massive bees, or at least temporarily impede them... I suspect it can only be a thermobaric bomb! Also known as a fuel-air explosive. It instantly burns off the air within a ten-kilometer radius and turns the area into a high-temperature inferno. If it's a cruise missile like that, it could wipe out both us and the swarm behind us in one go, or at least delay them..."

Zheng Zha felt a chill deep in his heart. He instantly shifted into the third stage of unlocking his gene lock, visualizing the unique shooting ability from his time in Zero Point combat. Simultaneously, he spun on the rope and roared at Bawang, "I'll aim in that direction for you, and then you shoot purely on instinct... I can't guarantee my target position is perfect, but I guarantee the cruise missiles are there. Attack using your intuition!" Zheng Zha focused all his attention, straining to look into the distance. The Goblin Glider was flying about a hundred meters above the ground now. From this height, he could just make out the coastline. Since it was night, Zheng Zha could only see slightly farther by exerting maximum effort. Therefore, he had to rely on Zero Point's terrifying vision and a sniper's observational intuition... He had to find that thermobaric bomb! Otherwise, the four of them would surely meet a gruesome end.

In the far distance, Zheng Zha vaguely perceived a faint white glimmer—subtle, almost imperceptible. Upon closer inspection, it seemed like nothing was there. No, not one, but three such glimmers.

Zheng Zha wasted no more time. He grabbed Bawang's gun and aimed in that direction, letting out a breath. "The Gauss sniper rifle can shoot seventy to eighty thousand meters. This gun is an assault model; naturally, it can't reach that far, but its firing mechanism is a tier above Gauss weaponry. Pray to the heavens, shoot, Bawang, in that direction!" Bawang roared and pulled the trigger, shouting continuously, his hands trembling as he swept his fire toward those few tiny spots. Shooting from here to perhaps ten thousand meters away, a slight tremor of the hand could result in a miss of tens of meters at that distance. Thus, this was purely a test of Bawang's sweeping skill; it was the only way to test him, otherwise, they might all be caught in the blast radius of the thermobaric warheads!

Before Bawang's roar had even ceased, a brilliant distant light flashed violently from the edge of the coastline far away, as dazzling and blinding as a small sun. Then, three consecutive explosions echoed from that direction. This light grew increasingly intense, and the group could feel a blast of hot air wash over them. Even from such a distance, the heat was quite scorching. Chu Xuan had already begun to change direction; taking advantage of the fact that the giant bee swarm behind them was still some distance away, he piloted the Goblin Glider hard into the sea water at the edge of the coast... The water felt unusually warm... Jump to
