Chapter 644: Sea of Fire

The armed helicopter cut through the night sky, its hardened shell frosting over from the freezing night air, but it didn’t slow its rapid flight.

However, in this kind of environment, its range was severely limited — only suitable for short-distance missions like this one.

After flying for just over ten minutes, Zhang Yi and his team had already crossed from Blizzard City to Jiangning City.

As they approached the skies over Jiangning, through the frosted window, they vaguely saw a warm yellow glow flickering across the land below.

“Huh? What’s that? A bonfire party or something?”

Zhang Yi leaned in closer.

At the same time, faint rumbling sounds reached their ears.

Everyone heard it — a deep thunderous noise — and moved toward the windows.

What they saw stunned them all.

A raging sea of fire!

The city center — Jiangning Plaza — had been turned into an inferno!

Explosions continued to erupt from the ground, loud enough to echo through the skies like thunder!

“What the hell is going on?”

Zhang Yi frowned, surprised by the sight.

Just then, Zhu Zheng’s voice came through their comms at the perfect moment.

“Do you all see the explosions in Jiangning City?”

“Don’t be alarmed. This is the first step of our operation. We’ve deployed Canglong-5 bombers to carry out a strike across the entire Jiangning Plaza.”

“After this wave of bombing, there will be nowhere for Moon of Corrosion to hide. Even if we can’t wipe them out directly, we’ll at least flush them out.”

Zhang Yi instantly thought of the bombers he saw at the airport — it all made sense now.

Moon of Corrosion had equipment that could block satellite surveillance within a five-kilometer radius.

But Blizzard City had its own methods — just bomb the entire plaza.

All problems come from lacking firepower.

And Blizzard City? Definitely not short on ammo.

If not for the logistics challenges, Zhu Zheng would’ve brought in hundreds of cannons and flattened the whole place.

Yu Zhengyang clenched his fist, eyes glowing with excitement.

“Now things are going to be much easier for us!”

“With any luck, they’ll all be blown to pieces!”

Zhuo Feiyu, however, calmly reminded them, “It’s better not to get our hopes up.”

“If those guys were that easy to kill, we wouldn’t have spent so much time preparing for this.”

Yu Zhengyang took a deep breath. “I know! No need to remind me.”

Peng Li, standing near Zhang Yi, leaned toward the same window.

Looking down at the blazing sea of fire, she asked, “With this kind of large-scale coverage, unless they’re really familiar with the terrain and found underground shelters, it’s hard to imagine anyone surviving.”

Zhang Yi didn’t answer her directly. Instead, he asked,

“Have you ever heard of napalm bombs?”

“Huh?”

Peng Li blinked her large eyes — she’d never heard of such a thing.

Zhang Yi pointed at the fire below.

“Simply put, they’re incendiary bombs. They don’t have the explosive force of traditional bombs, but they can spread fire over a wide area.”

“Even the headquarters wouldn’t use explosives to bomb a full five-kilometer radius. So they’re using a lot of napalm instead.”

“It’s to deplete the oxygen and destroy food supplies in the plaza — forcing Moon of Corrosion to come out and fight.”

Zhang Yi chuckled. “I don’t believe those guys would just let themselves burn to death, especially not in this weather.”

Peng Li blinked skeptically, then turned her gaze to Chen Xiaoxiao.

Chen Xiaoxiao nodded. “He’s right. But at least now, finding the enemy will be easier. We won’t have to worry about ambushes or street fighting.”

While they were talking, the armed helicopter stopped ten kilometers outside Jiangning Plaza.

Since they didn’t know the enemy’s superhuman abilities, they had to keep a safe distance for landing — no need to get wiped out the moment they touched down.

After the flames had done their work, a drone flew across Jiangning Plaza.

From underneath it, a spherical device emerged, glowing with eerie red light.

Then, an invisible wave of electromagnetic interference swept across the entire plaza.

At the Operations Command Center

A staff member reported to Zhu Zheng and Tu Yunlie:

“Jiangning Plaza’s communication blackout is complete. They can’t use any comms or request outside help.”

Zhu Zheng nodded. “Good. Let them stumble around like headless flies — then we’ll crush them one by one.”

With Moon of Corrosion’s comms blocked while Jiangnan District’s remained functional, the advantage at the start of the battle was firmly in their hands.

Once the helicopters landed, the captains received direct orders through their earpieces.

“Zhang Yi’s team — enter the plaza from the southeast.”

“Wu Shifang’s team — enter from the west.”

“Zhuo Feiyu’s team — enter from the north.”

“Remember: Your mission is to draw enemy fire and delay Moon of Corrosion’s forces. If you encounter the enemy, your top priority is survival — do not engage proactively!”

Zhang Yi responded calmly. “Received.”

He retrieved two silver-white pistols from his Dimensional Space — White Owl, crafted by Lu Keran.

Each gun could hold twenty rounds of Sacred Silver bullets.

He walked to the cabin door, opened it, and turned to the others.

“Let’s go.”

Liang Yue followed without hesitation.

Peng Li and Chen Xiaoxiao exchanged a glance — both tense, but also visibly excited.

Danger and reward came hand in hand. If they could pull this mission off, the rewards would be massive.

They nodded to each other, encouraged themselves, then slung on their tactical packs and followed close behind Zhang Yi.

His tactical helmet displayed the designated insertion point and path through the plaza — marked by HQ.

No need to worry about getting lost.

He could also clearly view the routes of the other two teams.

The three squads advanced in a triangular formation — a deliberate tactic.

Using triangulation, they could pinpoint the enemy’s location.

Since satellite signals were being blocked, this was the only way to manually track down their target.

Take down the leader to break the enemy.

Eliminating or capturing Phoenixin Ren was the mission’s top priority.

The three squads set out. Not far away, another armed chopper landed.

Onboard were members of the Celestial Squad.

Watching the three Outer City teams move toward Jiangning Plaza, Deng Shentong’s eyes showed a playful glint.

“Chances are, most of them aren’t coming back.”

“But if they hold out until we arrive, it proves they’ve got potential.”

“At the very least, they could join the Yan Yun Guards of Blizzard City. The best among them might even make it into the Investigation Teams.”

Of course, he was mostly referring to Zhang Yi.

Ever since they met in Blizzard City, Deng Shentong had admired him and wanted to recruit him into the Celestial Squad.

“Let’s see what you’re made of this time.”

Deng Shentong smiled and turned back, waiting patiently for HQ’s order to strike.
