Douluo Dalu 4: Ultimate Fighting

Chapter 254: Strong kill

Previously, they were flying in tandem but in different directions, which meant that there was a certain distance between them. Under such circumstances, he had already destroyed his opponent in the shortest time possible. However, the two enemy planes on the other side were coming at this moment.

What did this mean? Not only did the wingman not lead the enemies away, he actually attracted them over which was why he was so fast, huh!

Lan Xuanyu was too invested, it was as if he had returned to that battlefield against those pirate warships previously. An incompetent wingman would simply drive the main pilot to despair! He had completely forgotten that the one he insulted was his invigilator, ah!

He didnt have any time to think at all because those two enemy planes had arrived. Before the sparks from the explosion of the enemy plane he destroyed disappeared, those two enemies had arrived.

What should he do? At this juncture, Lan Xuanyu had to face a tough choice. He could tell with one look at his opponents that they were a team of two as well, and the wingman had already accelerated all of a sudden, charging in his direction. In the process of flying over, his opponent kept changing stunts from flipping to drifting, clearly to entangle Lan Xuanyu.

The opponents main warship was already accumulating power and was trying to lock him in. Once hes locked in by the opponents wingman, it would be over for him!

But what about my wingman? Where is he?

The corners of Lan Xuanyus mouth twitched. He was enraged as he muttered, Having a terrifying opponent is better than a useless teammate!

The sloppy, middle-aged man sat in his own cockpit and could obviously hear him very clearly as both their communication devices were connected. Even if Lan Xuanyu didnt speak very loudly, there was an amplifier.

His face turned nasty. Why am I regarded as a useless teammate, huh? This is a test, young man. THIS IS A TEST, do you understand!

The wingman who was about to lend his support turned around all of a sudden, made a 180 degrees drift, and flipped thrice to avoid a huge meteorite then flew over to the other side of the battlefield.

You called me a useless teammate? Alright, Ill show you what useless is.

Lan Xuanyu couldnt be bothered to think anymore; he had completely given up on his wingman to assist. He quickly took control, and the warship drifted as he made a 180 degrees turn as well, fleeing for his life.

One against two, and he wasnt an ace pilot. Also, his opponents clearly had a great rapport with one another. If he didnt flee, he would be waiting for death.

He couldnt care less if he had to give the tail of the warship to his opponents!

He turned around without hesitation and after he turned, he immediately flew his warship toward the meteorite belt.

Only a large amount of meteorite belts would be able to conceal him.

At this moment, operating the warship was very crucial. Lan Xuanyu was totally focused, and he quickly made all sorts of dodging stunts, avoiding all the meteorites that appeared before him.

But the opponents piloting skills were pretty good too as he chased closely behind Lan Xuanyu with no intention of stopping.

The tail of the Soul Guidance warship wasnt equipped with the ability to attack. By chasing this way, his opponent could destroy him directly as long as he had targeted accurately; there wasnt any danger at all.

Also, the opponents wingman kept firing Soul Guidance rays while flying. He wasnt aiming to hit Lan Xuanyu but was specifically bombarding the meteorite belt.

Hitting the meteorites would cause the fragments to fly everywhere. It wouldnt be enough to destroy Lan Xuanyus warship, but just knocking against the protective shield would slow him down.

However, his opponents main warship was catching up and was about to intercept Lan Xuanyu from the other direction.

One against twoit was truly quite challenging!

Lan Xuanyu seemed very calm at this moment with both hands constantly moving swiftly. Even the noises from the meteorites knocking against his warships protective shield did not bother him.

Among the things that Yin Tianfan taught him, one of the most important points was that the more desperate the situation youre in, the more you must remain calm. You can seize an opportunity only when youre calm.

Both enemy planes were getting closer and all of a sudden, the siren in Lan Xuanyus warship began ringingthis would happen only when the main artillery had locked a target.

Lan Xuanyu took a deep breath. Nows the time!

He stepped on his thruster and flames burst forth from the main thruster at the tail.

The enemys wingman had clearly got the news that the main warship had locked in the target. He increased his speed and did not hesitate to swerve in.

If one wanted to break away from a targeted attack, there was only one way and that was to quickly increase the distance between them. Once out of the attack range, one would naturally be able to break away from being the target.

But this was the meteorite belt; it was very hard to accelerate and break away.

From the perspective of those two opponent warships, it was certain that Lan Xuanyu would die.

Unfortunately, they didnt know what sort of opponent they were faced with. Lan Xuanyu learned Space Warship Piloting from Yin Tianfan. Whether it was Warship Commanding or Space Warship Piloting, Yin Tianfan loved making unexpected winning moves and taking risks.

He often told Lan Xuanyu this idiom based on Sun Tzus The Art of War: Place somebody in a field of death, and he will fight to live. You should not focus on yourself but on the enemies, and you must make the enemies think that you have nowhere to run; then, they will relax. The more they think that way, the higher the chance you have of winning. What you have to do was to seize the moment when the opponent would think that you had been left dead. As long as you would have the ability to grasp this opportunity, you wouldnt be the one left dead but the opponent instead. Desperateness was the key to training ones heart.

Lan Xuanyu was tortured this way. He had faced this sort of situation countless times. From the ten deaths and no life at the beginning to nine deaths and one life after that. Then, to slowly trying to seize that crucial opportunity.

This sort of training couldnt possibly be done without the existence of Soul World. Nobody had an infinite number of lives to practice, ah! And the simulator allowed this impossibility to become a possibility. In a sense, Yin Tianfan had maximized the use of the simulator for Space Warship Piloting.

This sort of battle technique was definitely the most dangerous, but it was also the easiest way to defeat ones opponent.

Hence, when the opponents wingman thought that Lan Xuanyu was about to flee and quickly rushed over, Lan Xuanyu made a very unexpected move.

With the thruster at the back at its limits, there was a change in his wings as he forced a drift in the same spot.

In other words, he suddenly made a turn while flying at high speed and was facing the opponents wingman face to face. At the same time, the rear thruster was already at its maximum acceleration, and he knocked against his opponents wingman instantly after the turn. Also, the main artillery of the opponents main warship was also close by.

The opponents wingman had caught up at this moment and kept attacking as well. There were a few cannons that hit the protective shield of Lan Xuanyus warship too, causing ripples of light and the alarm in Lan Xuanyus warship to go off.

Blood and energy were gushing in Lan Xuanyus body. His golden-patterned Blue Silver Grass spread out, and over ten strands of golden-patterned Blue Silver Grass were quickly stuck in the cockpit, spreading the power of his bloodline externally, giving the warship a layer of protection.

He pulled the lever with all his strength, and the head of the warship was raised. Just as the opponents wingman was stunned and tried to dodge, Lan Xuanyus warship suddenly turned upward at 90 degrees and did a Cobra Maneuver.

Accelerate, turning drift, full acceleration, Cobra Maneuver. The flow of these movements was almost completed in a blink of an eye.

The opponents main warship cannon arrived at this second.

From afar, it was as if Lan Xuanyus warship had bored out of the opponents artillery fire.

Boom

During the loud rumbling, cannons were fired and all the opponent could do was to flip. But the opponent didnt realize that there was a huge meteorite next to it and Lan Xuanyus warship was basically stuck closely to that meteorite as he charged forward.
