Apocalypse: The Stronghold System

Chapter 086: Arriving at the Anti-Gravity Mothership

Why is this specification higher than normal? fan Chen asked inwardly.

[System Reminder: The items in the system purchased with Yuan(¥) have specifications of 1.5 — 2 times normal specifications. The goods purchased with Coin(©) are already confirmed 2 times, and the goods provided by the system have specifications between 2 — 2.5 of the normal specifications of the same goods]

"What are you thinking?"

Fan Chen looked up at the young man who was five years old on top of him, wearing a military strike with a well-preserved appearance, Tang Fengyin.

Tang Fengyin handed over a large cup filled with hot chocolate.

Fan Chen received it with both hands, after making sure there was no harmful content in it, he took a slight sip. "Nothing, I was just thinking how to secure the Shizi Yang River south of Dongguan."

Despite saying so, he had actually assigned the Anti-Gravity Mothership to stand guard on the Shizi Yang River after bringing Team Alpha back to Mingyue Defense.

"Send the troops there ..." Tang Fengyin stopped, then she looked at Fan Chen and again said, "How many troops are there?"

Fan Chen simply kept silent and smiled without answering him, this was very important and sensitive information, surely he would not foolishly say the number of troops in Mingyue Defense.

Tang Fengyin realized what she was asking was too sensitive, she slightly bowed to apologize.

Fan Chen waved his hand, not bothering about it.

Chu Baiyin came carrying a tray on which was an instant noodle cup with quality beef. "You two, it's dinner time."

Fan Chen took a cup of instant noodles with meat, meatballs and sausages inside. "Thank you, Auntie."

Chu Baiyin smiled faintly and said, "We should be the ones to thank you, because of you, we were able to survive the attack of the Sky Fire Lizard, and because of you as well, our food became various."

Tang Fengyin nodded in agreement. "Yes, just so you know, we've been eating preserved food for four days. It was excruciating, even an instant noodle cup like this was already extremely luxurious, and now there was additional meat."

“Master, Mothership will arrive in five minutes.”

Fan Chen looked at the time in his hand when he heard the notification from Xiaochu that sounded in his ear through the earphones. "At 19.43. In five minutes our invitation will arrive, you guys get ready."

"A pick-up?" Chu Baiyin sat down between Tang Fengyin and Fan Chen. "Your mom said the new transport was delivered yesterday afternoon, and now it's almost there? What transportation can get there so fast? Can you tell me? Your mother was silent every time we asked her."

Fan Chen smiled mysteriously and said, "Since Mom doesn't want to tell her, then I won't say it either."

Chu Baiyin gave a cold snort, but did not say anything more, then she smiled faintly.

Fan Chen ate quickly though it was still hot, and after it was done, he stood up, walking towards a vast place without any distractions around him. He stretched out his hand in the air, taking out the Mil Mi-26 Helicopter.

Luo Zhu who followed Fan Chen behind, was stunned when he saw this. "Mil Mi-26s? But, there seems to be something different about being on a military base."

"Wait!" Luo Zhu turned his head to look at Fan Chen. "If there's this, why don't we use it to go there directly instead of waiting in ..." He stopped when he realized something, looking up at the night sky. "Yes, I forgot, you fucking animal!"

Fan Chen looked at Luo Zhu. "Can Uncle Luo bring a helicopter?"

"No ..." Luo Zhu shook his head and said, "For this helicopter can't, but my wife can take it."

"Let's get ready, our transportation is already waiting in the sky." Fan Chen pointed up, then he turned towards the car one by one and saved them all.

Although this car is useless in Mingyue Defense, it can at least be recycled again to save costs.

Fan Chen had already gotten permission from everyone whether to keep these cars, and they allowed it because they knew there was a rescue team, so the car that came was definitely very strong, so the one that came was definitely very strong, and the cars they brought were no longer useful.

Luo Zhu looked up at the dark night sky blocked by the black clouds, he did not understand why he had to fly there using a helicopter. "Our transportation equipment is waiting there? What's that supposed?"

Fan Chen was still silent not telling what means of transportation would bring them back to Mingyue Defense.

Luo Zhu asked everyone to gather and immediately entered the cabin of the Mil Mi-26 Helicopter after it was finished getting ready.

Fan Chen himself went straight into the control room, but he did not sit in the front row, but rather the back because he could not operate the helicopter.

Fan Chen put on a headset and said, "Make sure the seat belts are in place, and take an oxygen mask over you. Use it to make sure that the oxygen requirement is met, we'll rise to an altitude of 10,000 meters above sea level with an air pressure of 0.261 atm."

"If you don't wear an oxygen mask and get anoxia or loss of oxygen to your body or brain, your life could be in danger of death." Fan Chen immediately put on an oxygen mask after saying that.

Yin Mengqi turned her head back to look at Fan Chen. "Ten thousand meters?"

Fan Chen nodded his head. "Yes, Aunt Yin will know what's up there. There'll be incoming communications, they'll direct us."

Tang Zixuan and Yin Mengqi looked at each other, then they nodded without asking anything more. From the start, they had already been told by Yun Mingyue to believe what Fan Chen had said and follow all of his words.

As colleagues who have fought together for a long time even though only seven years, but they have absolute confidence.

Without any more lingering, the Mil Mi-26 Helicopter lit up and the propellers spun very fast.

Strong winds are created from a very fast rotation of the propeller, and so fast rotation of the propeller, the propeller appears silent so that from afar the Mil Mi-26 Helicopter looks pulled from above.

The night was very dark, the moonlight was covered by black clouds at night, making them unable to see anything. But fortunately, Tang Zixuan and Yin Mengqi were very professional, plus there were directions coming out of nowhere, the person directing them sounded in the headset, sending directions well which made it easy for both of them.

Fan Chen looked at the altitude indicator and reported it periodically. "We are already at an altitude of 6,000 meters above sea level, the air pressure continues to decrease, make sure not to remove the oxygen mask."

The Mil Mi-26 helicopter continued to fly non-stop and without knowing what was around it, no one knew that they had already been targeted by the mutant beasts, no one knew, but the Anti-Gravity Mothership is up there guarding them by firing shots.

"We are already at an altitude of 10,000 meters above sea level, soon we will arrive." Fan Chen again reported and said again, "General Luo Ti, we are already at the same height, have the crew there wait outside and prepare oxygen masks with 73 units."

"We've arrived?" Luo Zhu looked over from the glass window, but he found nothing but the clouds below that glowed from being exposed to the moonlight at night.

"There!" Tang Zixuan pointed out the window, she saw there was a light lamp that formed “H” that was inside the circle, the sign of the parking helicopter place.

"Go there."

Tang Zixuan nodded her head when she heard Fan Chen's voice, she also saw there was a marshaller who signaled to help in parking the Mil Mi-26 Helicopter.

The Marshaller stretches his right hand and his left hand up and down (when riding directly bend to the right), signaling that the helicopter should turn left.

Then push forward slowly, asking the helicopter to retreat. Then the marshaller raises his hand slowly steadily, asking the helicopter to land slowly and carefully.

When the Mil Mi-26 Helicopter landed and the engine shut down completely and the propeller no longer rotated, the waiting crew began rushing to their duty.

The helicopter door opened, the crew handed over a change of oxygen masks.

Fan Chen picked it up and directly put it on, then he descended from the control room.

Tang Zixuan, Luo Zhu, Lin Jiazhen and Yin Mengqi followed after wearing oxygen masks.

The four of them did not have time to observe around, they immediately went to the rear after opening the rear cabin.

It didn't take long to change the oxygen mask because a lot of crews were helping.

Then when everyone got out of the helicopter and put on an oxygen mask, they started to look around.

Even at night, the Anti-Gravity Mothership is still clearly visible due to the illuminating moonlight. When these 72 people saw the Mother Ship, they were silently frozen in place speechless.

Fan Chen turned around to look at the 72 people who were silent on the spot. "What are you guys doing there for? It's cold outside and there's not enough oxygen." He did not wait for their reaction, he immediately rushed into the steel building in front of him.

He himself wanted to see the interior of the Anti-Gravity Mothership from each layer, yesterday he left first, so he could not see the contents inside and was very curious.
