The Favored Son of Heaven - Chapter 59

Chapter 59: Trash Squadron

Translator: Strivon  Editor: Strivon

Actually, Qin Fen really liked the feeling of aerial combat. If his training hadn’t been so densely packed these days, perhaps he would have long since charged into this place to appreciate and progress in the martial dao of aerial combat.

Qin Fen pretended to be a wandering fighter. He showed not a hint of hostility toward the pink fighter as he made he slow approach. He didn’t need much time ti seize the chance to mount a sneak attack at the opponent.

“Miss Pinkie, Trash Reserves Rookie is going to launch a sneak attack on you!” Squadron Leader Trash yelled over the communications channel, destroying what Qin Fen originally intended to do.

“It’s the Vile Squadron again!” The Pink Swallow Space Fighter made a rapid turn in the air, faced Qin Fen, and opened fire, “Trying an ambush! You sure are vile!”

Qin Fen felt a certain feeling of being awfully wronged. Aerial combat consisted nothing other than ambushes and frontal bombardment aside from a several basic tactics. Why did the pink fighter consider ambushes to be vile?

Though the pink swallow’s words sounded a bit naive, the pilot’s skills in aerial combat were powerful beyond imagination. Qin Fen avoided several of his opponent’s shots and then counter attacked, but the pink swallow dodged his attack.

You’re reading on Thanks!

“Can’t you even beat a rookie, kid?” Squadron Leader Trash yelled. The aircrafts in the airspace nearby could hear his words with great clarity, and all the aircrafts fell silent for a time.

This pink swallow was no rookie. The pilot was a third-class ace of the Federation. The pilot was absolutely a powerful expert.

There was only one pilot nearby who dared call the pink swallow pilot a rookie. It was the super first-class ace pilot of the Federation, Squadron Leader Trash.

The two sides struggled for several dozens of seconds, leaving the pilots in the nearby airspace all stupefied. Who was the pilot of the Specter Space Fighter? Which ace pilot was he? Smurfing on this new account?

“Is this your level, kid? I’m way too disappointed!”

Squadron Leader Trash’s voice rang through the air, and Qin Fen’s hands suddenly became faster at operating. He had planned to familiarize with the feeling of piloting since he hadn’t done aerial combat for the past two days, but he wouldn’t let Squadron Leader Trash look down on him.

Aerial Combat Dragon Guard!

It was a magical flight trajectory. Qin Fen’s air craft dodged past the pink swallow, its body suddenly arriving below the enemy fighter. After a super typical case of the Pugachev’s Cobra, the Qin Fen launched a laser beam straight ahead. The beam went straight in the air, cutting the pink swallow perfectly like a surgical blade!

This beam of light was meant to be used when the Specter Space Fighter encountered a mobile armor or a warship that it had no chance of winning. It was used as an attack method of mutual destruction.

Qin Fen’s usage of this cut had been done in the past before, but in cases where the descrepency in power between the two sides was far too great. Qin Fen felt methods where an expert to played with a non-expert were very interesting. He casually learned this move, but he hadn’t known that the inventor of this move was actually Squadron Leader Trash himself. And, there was another name for this move in aerial combat—Death By Humiliation!

Qin Fen just felt that it was fun. He didn’t know that there was this different name for it. It was quite an insult for a third-class ace pilot of the Federation to lose this way under everyone’s staring eyes.

“Awesome! No wonder you’re my disciple!”

With Squadron Leader Trash’s yell, Qin Fen’s social status on the Aerial Combat Network immediately soared upward. Everyone firmly believed in Squadron Leader Trash’s words. Only the apprentice of such a person would use this sort of method to humiliate an ace pilot.

“Trash Rookie!” The voice of an indignant woman can ringing into Qin Fen’s ears, “The Pink Combat Squadron won’t rest until one of us is dead!”

Qin Fen felt a cold shiver run through his body. This woman was far too petty. She had only been struck down once. Not resting until one of them was dead was going too far, right?

Qin Fen wasn’t a real, genuine, orthodox pilot after all. He didn’t understand much about the aviator world. He just didn’t want Squadron Leader Trash to look down on him just now. That was the only reason why he was flashy with his strength.

“Not bad, kid! You just logged on, and the beauties that are the Pink Combat Squad are all interested in you! You have prospects to look forward to!” Squadron Leader Trash yelled very happily, “Don’t be in a rush to leave. Continue to be in this place. Today, I’ll watch you and see just how strong you really are.”

Qin Fen soon saw over a dozen Pink Swallow model fighters come surround him from different directions. Of them was the one he just struck down.

“Shoot them all down for me!”

Only Squadron Leader Trash, the super first-class ace pilot, could clamor about shooting down a dozen third-class ace pilots.

Though Qin Fen didn’t understand the formations of aerial combat, he could instinctively feel that the one he shot down was the head of the formation.

One should shoot the horse first when shooting a rider, and likewise, one should strike the head first when striking fighters!

The drive furnace of the Specter Fighter jetted at high speeds. Qin Fen didn’t retreat. Instead, he charged toward his old opponent.

The pilot of the pink swallow was angry from being humiliated in front of everyone just now. She issued a few aerial combat commands when she saw Qin Fen charge provocatively at them. The formation was immediately in place, and she flew solo in the very front for she vowed to exact personal revenge.

Dreams were often beautiful, but reality was always cruel.

Qin Fen’s Dragon Guard made the pink swallow eat hatred on the spot once more. He eliminated her in a brief frontal exchange, and he eliminated her even more cleanly this time!

Instant kill!

This caused quite a bit of shock in the other pilots. Qin Fen had instantly eliminated two pink fighters in a short gap of time. At the same time, he tangled endlessly with the other fighters.

“I’m not convinced that I can’t shoot you down!” The pink fighter that had been eliminated twice soon appeared once more. Qin Fen’s Specter Space Fighter was simulated at the highest level of realism. The chase and entanglement of fierce battle had used up a lot of his fighter’s energy. He had to return to the airfield for resupply.

The pink fighters obviously wouldn’t give Qin Fen the chance to resupply. Each one of them acted akin to wolves that hadn’t eaten meat for several months but suddenly saw fresh meet today. They would bite him even in death.

“Not bad.” Squadron Leader Trash smile was that of utter satisfaction. “Last until you don’t have any energy left. Free-fall counts as a victory.”

Qin Fen looked at the energy gauge on his fighter’s indicators. He knew that it was nearly impossible for him to get rid of the group of aces, but it wasn’t his style to hold on until he was out of energy. His endless fights these days had gradually made him accustomed to a personality that would fight when needed!

He accelerated into a huge loop. Qin Fen’s fighter faced his pursuers once more, charging past the pink fighters.

Everyone believed that Qin Fen would drag things out until he was out of energy and log out from the fight. No one expected him to suddenly turn around, and this included even his pursuers.

“Strike him down!” The leader taking the lead ordered. Charging over solo as a single machine.

A faint smile was engraved in Qin Fen’s face. He spoke, using the voice system for the first time, “Let’s explode together then.”

A kamikaze attack!

“So it’s you?” The head aircraft’s words carried a hint of shock. At the same time, the aircraft performed a series of swaying movements in the air, wishing to trick Qin Fen. However, the movements were unable to trick Qin Fen’s martial senses. Qin Fen dodged the attacks of quite a few missiles before ferociously ramming into the enemy fighter.

A ball of fire flared, and Squadron Leader Trash had a delighted smile. “The kid has personality. The humiliation dealt this time is in no way lacking compared to the last one.”
