Fantasy Game: Infinite City

Chapter 325 Confrontation

Gloria, lying on the "magnetic aircraft", took some time to adapt to the dizziness caused by her fear of heights. During this time, Han Zu's ascent speed finally stabilized and no longer accelerated.

So far, they were at an altitude that was half the distance to the dome of the underground world, about a few kilometers. There was nothing in the air nearby, except for the occasional flying creatures flying by in the distance, and the liquid columns farther away.

In order to leave the underground world and return to the surface, the only way Gloria knows now is to go up through the liquid column connected to the underground world and the hole at the top. However, if she wants to reach the nearest liquid column, Gloria must find a way to drive this unconscious "magnetic aircraft" under her. At this time, Gloria is still very fortunate, because the ability she got from Han Zu is the ability of fire. If it was something else, she really had no way to change the current situation.

However, Gloria still made a lot of mental preparations before trying to use the power of fire to drive Han Zu. Although Han Zu had said before that the two people would not fall to death, even if the height was too high, enough to smash them into a pulp, it would only take longer for their bodies to recover. However, due to her instinctive fear of heights, even if Gloria believed Han Zu's words, she was not prepared to experience it herself.

After the two of them had risen several hundred meters in altitude, Gloria finally prepared herself mentally. She determined the location of the nearest liquid column, and then began to gather the power of fire in her body. If she wanted to reach the location of the liquid column safely, she'd better turn the "magnetic aircraft" first.

"Boom!"

After briefly releasing a jet of flame to the side of the body, Han Zu's body slowly began to rotate, and a few seconds before his head pointed to the position of the liquid column, Gloria released a smaller jet of flame in the opposite direction, causing Han Zu's body to stop rotating with his head facing the liquid column.

"Phew! Take your time, don't rush..."

After adjusting the angle, Gloria directed the power of the flame to her legs and slowly released the flame jet. After it was completely stable, she increased the intensity of the flame jet, and the "magnetic aircraft" under her body successfully began to move forward.

In order to avoid any problems, Gloria did not speed up the flame jet propulsion further, maintaining a completely controllable degree, and steadily drove Han Zu forward to the position of the liquid column. However, Gloria, who was highly focused, seemed to have forgotten that there were not only her and Han Zu as outsiders in the underground world. The sudden appearance of black flames and a human-shaped UFO in the sky of the underground world was as dazzling as a firework that suddenly appeared in the dark night.

"Surface-to-air strike en route detected"

Just as Gloria was concentrating on trying to fly the "magnetic aircraft", the scanning device in the groove on her chest suddenly and proactively cancelled Gloria's permission to mute it, and began to issue a warning sound at the maximum volume. Gloria, distracted by the sudden alarm, finally began to pay attention to things other than the liquid column in the distance.

Looking down over Han Zu's shoulder, Gloria didn't see anything. In order to prevent the scanning system from being forced to restart, she released a directional radiation pulse to the rear. As a result, at the edge of the pulse range, she scanned something that was approaching them at a high speed, diagonally behind them. Gloria looked back and found a miniature shell fired by a live ammunition weapon system.

"屮!"

That thing wasn't a missile, so there was nothing on it that could be interfered with by the radiation pulse. Gloria immediately increased the intensity of the flamethrower and dodged the attack in time.

"Warning! Unauthorized weapons system detected locking on"

"Weapon System Signature Category: Multiple Micro-homing Missile System"

"Warning! Locked, estimated attack arrival time: 5 seconds"

"Damn it!"

This time, Gloria looked at the ground diagonally behind her. She noticed something flashing a few times. Without a doubt, it was those miniature tracking missiles that had locked onto her position. Soon, without the need for pulse detection and scanning devices, Gloria could see with her naked eyes several miniature missiles with tail flames flying towards her rapidly.

"Boom!"

Gloria immediately increased the intensity of her flame jet and suddenly increased her flying speed, but those miniature tracking missiles were no cheap stuff. They stuck closely to the back of Gloria's flame jet, and the distance between them was gradually shrinking.

"Warning! Estimated impact arrival time: 10 seconds"

"Energy protection system not detected"

"Release of heat-attracting grenades is recommended"

"This isn't a real aircraft. How can I get you a heat decoy? I don't even have an EMP grenade! Wait! EMP?!"

The scanning device is equipped with an AI system, which is relatively intelligent and can provide some temporary countermeasures based on the emergencies detected by the scan. However, it is not completely intelligent. After all, this scanning device belongs to Han Zu. In order to avoid leaving records on the network, server and database of Infinite Company when using these things, Han Zu deleted a lot of software and equipment parts that may leave traces.

This also resulted in the half-baked AI on the scanning device not recognizing that Gloria was not actually on a flying vehicle, and of course the emergency measures it provided were almost useless.

But Gloria's brain reacted quickly in the emergency situation. She immediately realized that the radiation pulse she emitted had an effect similar to EMP. She did not release the radiation pulse normally just now in order to avoid forcing the scanning system to restart. Now this skill came in handy.

"Om~"

"Zizi~~"

"Boom boom boom boom!!!!"

Looking back to confirm the tracking missiles that were chasing her, Gloria released a directional radiation pulse at them again. After the radiation pulse swept across their positions, it immediately destroyed the tracking system on them. The missiles that lost their guidance function continued to fly, but because of the loss of remote control, one of them collided with the propulsion system of another, triggering an explosion.

The explosion swept other missiles in, and soon all the tracking missiles were blown in, causing several explosions. Gloria temporarily resolved the crisis.

"High energy response detected"

"Type Identification: Laser Weapon System"

"Auxiliary lock signal detected"

"Warning! Locked"

As a former combat commander, Gloria was quite good at handling emergencies. The moment the alarm of the scanning device sounded, Gloria immediately released a powerful jet of flame to the side, instantly pushing herself and Han Zu away from their original flight path. At the same moment, a laser as thick as a wrist instantly pierced through their original position. The feeling of surviving a disaster made Gloria feel cold down her spine.

Although Gloria had read the research reports on Han Zu's physical fitness in his secret base and knew that Han Zu's physique was immune to a large degree of attacks and injuries, she was not a scientist and did not know to what extent Han Zu could resist attacks. So even though the laser attack just now, even if it hit Han Zu, at most it would be a laser hair removal for him, but Gloria was not clear about this, so she broke out in a cold sweat and became even more tense.

"Multiple high energy reactions detected"

"Type Identification: Plural Laser Weapon Systems"

"Several auxiliary lock signals detected"

"Warning! Warning! Multiple locks!"

Before the alarm sounded, Gloria began to madly burst out completely irregular flames in all directions. At the same time, several auroras as thick as wrists flashed wildly like spotlights at a concert. Fortunately, Gloria was lucky enough and was not hit once. However, due to continuous large-scale evasive actions, they had now deviated from the direction of the original target liquid column.

In the next few minutes, Gloria used flamethrowers in a panic and controlled the "magnetic aircraft" under her body to avoid various attacks that were locked on them. This situation of running around and being unable to resist made Gloria very angry.

"Wake up! You piece of wood! We are going to be beaten into a sieve!!!"

While fleeing in a panic, Gloria beat Han Zu's body frantically, but this strong body not only did not wake up, but also hurt Gloria's hands.

"Warning! Unknown energy weapon system detected, avoidance recommended."

"Warning! Unknown energy weapon system detected, avoidance recommended."

"Warning! Locked!"

At this moment, the scanner, which was originally showing normal prompts, suddenly flashed red, indicating that the scanner had entered intrusion mode. (The alarm system that Han Zu adapted to this scanner was actually taken from the base alarm system of a certain unlimited company's base.) In this mode, the scanner will automatically block all permissions and actively sound an alarm.

Just when Gloria was having a headache because of the noise, she noticed that a ball of light suddenly appeared diagonally below her at an extremely fast speed. It should be something launched by some unknown energy weapon system. Although Gloria immediately tried to evade it and created a flame jet, the speed of that thing was too fast and she could not avoid it at all. So Gloria could only release a directional pulse towards it, hoping to affect it and change its route.

"boom!!!!!!"

However, when it got completely close, Gloria found that it would be useless because it was a new type of complex energy weapon, and radiation pulses with effects like EMP would not have any effect on it.

Before it hit Han Zu's body and produced a large-scale energy explosion that shocked Gloria, Gloria saw that this thing seemed to be a plasma ball, and it seemed to be wrapped with an unknown solid metal core. Gloria saw with her own eyes that after the plasma ball hit Han Zu's body, the first energy explosion occurred, and then the metal core inside suddenly caused a second explosion, and the effect was almost the same as the energy explosion. It was precisely because of the two consecutive explosions that Gloria was almost blown unconscious.

“Why am I in heaven????”

The explosion accelerated the launch of the "magnetic aircraft" again and it finally woke up.

"Finally I've woken you up, you idiot! Stop getting hung up on it! We're going to be beaten into a hornet's nest!!!!!"

"What the hell? What's going on? I..."

"boom!!!!!"

Han Zu, who had just woken up, was still confused and wondering why he was in the sky. He heard Gloria's curses on his back, and the movement of strangling his neck and releasing flames and changing directions. Just when Han Zu was about to ask Gloria what happened again, another plasma ball hit Han Zu's open mouth, and another explosion occurred.

"Still asking! Is it delicious?!!!!"

"Fuck it! Are you treating me like a wild duck?!"

Han Zu, who had just regained consciousness and was still in a daze, was suddenly shot in the head. No one would be in a good mood, let alone Han Zu. Gloria suddenly found that Han Zu's body suddenly began to grow rapidly, and instantly turned into a giant over five meters tall. The rope that originally tied the two of them was directly broken into pieces, and Gloria almost fell down, but fortunately she reacted quickly enough and hugged Han Zu's neck.
