Global Catastrophe: I Became the World Tree-Chapter 370 - 241 Annihilation of the Giant Dragon, The Battle Concludes_1

Chapter 370: Chapter 241 Annihilation of the Giant Dragon, The Battle Concludes_1

When the blaze dissipated, Ye Feng looked over immediately.

The target of the main attack, the giant dragon, had half of its face on the right side mangled, and even one of its eyes was blinded.

Beyond that, its wings on the back were severely damaged and even a bit twisted.

Of course, what was more exaggerated was its belly, the weakest part in defense, which was directly blown open with a nearly 10-meter long gaping wound, revealing the organs inside.

Obviously, this round of attacks had seriously injured the giant dragon, and although it desperately urged the spiritual energy to quickly heal the wounds...

Doing so took a tremendous toll, and Ye Feng could sense the dragon’s aura rapidly weakening.

The other five dragons that were also affected had at least seven to eight meters of wounds on their bodies, which was definitely not light even for their hundred-meter length.

All at once, the entire giant dragon group became enraged.

Roar!

Under the furious roar of an exceptionally robust giant dragon...

Suddenly, ten giant dragons broke away from the group, pursuing the retreating fighter jets; it was clear they wouldn’t just take a beating without fighting back.

Although the first squadron’s fighter jets had already begun a full retreat from the battlefield at this point, their maximum speed was only four times the speed of sound, while these dragons could burst up to five times the speed of sound.

The difference was an entire speed-of-sound, and even though they had a distance of three kilometers, it would take the dragons less than ten seconds to catch up.

However, Xia Lei had anticipated this situation beforehand.

That’s why he had sent the second squadron of fighters for backup.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Another full ten rounds of Sun Chaser Missiles were launched, shooting straight at the group of dragons.

These dragons had already experienced the power of Sun Chaser Missiles before; where would they dare to take the hit head-on now?

Of course, they wanted to dodge, but unfortunately against missiles with a lock-on feature, that was impossible.

So, at that moment, the five dragons flying at the front surged their spiritual energy, concentrating it all in their mouths.

Then, with one breath, a large swath of inferno burst forth from their jaws, instantly creating a Flame Area of hundreds of meters in front of them.

All ten Sun Chaser Missiles were "Devoured" by the flames, followed by a series of explosive detonations.

Of course, while they blocked the missiles’ attack, they were delayed by that moment, allowing the first squadron of fighters to increase the distance from the dragons to a safe location.

After such a round of probing, the basics of these dragons were essentially figured out.

But Xia Lei’s brows furrowed in concern.

Frankly, the situation was troublesome; although he knew beforehand that these dragons had strong defensive power, he had not expected their self-healing ability to be so formidable as well.

He glanced at the dragon that had just been heavily injured by the explosion; in just a short span of about a dozen seconds, its condition stabilized.

He estimated that given another half an hour, it could regain its combat capability.

In other words, it would be difficult for them to wear the dragons down to death.

Furthermore, the dragons’ Flame Breath was another issue that greatly troubled them.

Although the reach of that Flame Breath was not far, making it difficult to hit their fighter jets, the problem was, the dragons simply used their flames for defense, enough to trigger the Sun Chaser Missiles!

With this in mind, he was somewhat uncertain of the next move, but fortunately, he was not alone.

Immediately, Xia Lei switched the communication channel and asked, "Parrot Messenger, what tactics do you think we should use next?"

"Try to spread out as much as possible! Have the fighter jets attack from all directions," Ye Feng pondered before adding, "That way, if they want to intercept the Sun Chaser Missiles, they’ll need to expel more of their Flame Breath."

"Will that... be effective?" Xia Lei asked, somewhat hesitantly.

Actually, according to his own thoughts, the best course of action would be to concentrate firepower and quickly kill off a portion of the dragons, preventing them from having time to recover and thereby avoiding a war of attrition.

Ye Feng took a moment to think and seemed to guess Xia Lei’s thoughts before saying decisively, "It will certainly be effective. Do you think those flames can be spat out at will? You can think of that Flame Breath as a special ability; using it requires spending spiritual energy."

"Not just for expelling flames, but also when they’re injured and healing; they need to consume a large amount of spiritual energy. Otherwise, why do you think they can recover so quickly?"

"So, we don’t need to rush at all. Even if this batch of missiles runs out, we can go back to resupply and return for another bombing run. Sooner or later, we’ll wear them down," he continued.

Ye Feng laid his entire plan bare.

As for how much destruction prolonged combat would cause, that was not for him to consider.

Hearing this, Xia Lei was reassured, but he still asked a key question, "If we spread out our attack, will that increase the burden on your side’s security work?"

"Don’t worry," Ye Feng confidently reassured, "Just make sure you maintain a distance of three kilometers from the dragons, and leave the rest to us."

With a few words between the two of them, the next tactical moves were decided, and Xia Lei quickly issued a series of commands.

The fighter jet squadrons that had been gathered together rapidly dispersed, attacking from all different angles.
