Sky-cracking Rider-Chapter 1235 - 1204: Bullying the Annoying Little Brother
In the hangar, several tactical jets were lined up in a row. One of them had its cockpit canopy open, tilted back. Chen Shan was sitting inside, eyes slightly closed, as if meditating.
Because these tactical jets were self-produced using psi skills, the actual cost was dirt cheap.
Chen Fei's metal series super power technique might not match a genuine industrial assembly line for mass production. However, for small batches, especially those requiring continuous improvements, psi skills clearly had an advantage in cost efficiency.
"Hey! Little Shanzi, are you cultivating immortality?"
The untimely interruption by Chen Xiao'er intentionally broke Chen Shan's meditative trance. He opened his eyes and, upon seeing this annoying brother, instantly snapped, "What are you here for?"
"Of course, I came to cheer for our little bro!"
Chen Fei clenched his fist, making a gesture of effort.
However, in Chen Shan's eyes, it seemed like this jerk was finding an excuse to beat him again.
"I don't believe you!"
Chen Shan firmly refused to fall for it.
He might believe it if someone else said it, but coming from Chen Xiao'er, give it a rest! It's obviously not with good intentions.
"Look at the way you're talking, hasn't your brother ever supported you?"
Chen Fei spread his hands, portraying himself as both injured and innocent.
Chen Shan retorted, "What have you supported?"
Not knowing where he suddenly popped out from, yet claiming to support him; the thickness of his skin could stop bullets.
Uh, wait, Chen Xiao'er's skin really could stop bullets! It's not an unfounded accusation at all.
"What you said is truly heart-wrenching."
Chen Fei snapped his fingers.
The next second, Chen Shan felt his body became light without warning, and the tactical jet he was in collapsed into countless pieces like building blocks.
He genuinely felt a headache coming on.
"Ouch! Hiss..."
Anyone sitting on a pile of metal geometric particles the size of fingertips would inevitably get poked in critical areas.
Chen Shan then recalled that the combat aircraft he planned to use as his Sky Knight ride was offered by Chen Xiao'er.
This, this, this was probably "designed" from the start, right? (No matter how you interpret it, this question on "design" in reading comprehension is a giveaway.)
"Hehehehe..." Chen Fei gave a laugh with an ambiguous meaning, squatting next to the pile of pulverized tactical jet particles, looked at Chen Shan's face turning blue and white intermittently, and said leisurely, "Little Shanzi, I think you're overconfident!"
"When I become a Sky Knight, watch how I deal with you!"
Chen Shan gritted his teeth, glaring at Chen Fei.
Sky Knights had privileges, even if this tactical jet was owned by Chen Fei. However, once Chen Shan became a genuine Sky Knight, the sovereign will could forcibly requisition it, and who dared utter even half a "no" from their teeth?
Patents? Patents can't restrict sovereignty; when dealing with sovereignty, you need missiles, shells, particle beams, laser cannons, nuclear weapons, elemental annihilation bombs... anyway, common folks can't buy these good stuff.
"Yo! You sure are capable!"
Chen Fei expertly activated Little Shanzi till he fumed and then gave him a thrashing to doubt life itself. This routine never got old even after a hundred times.
Bullying pesky little brothers and sisters, wasn't that the privilege of being an older brother?
"Even if you pass the trial training for Sky Knight and keep training for three more years, you still won't beat him."
A voice came along with footsteps.
The brothers Chen Fei and Chen Shan followed the sound and looked over. It was the two Sky Knights invited by the National Defense Star specifically for Chen Shan.
Flying call signs "Mad Devil" Sun Ruzheng and "Mechanic" Ding Xiu.
The National Defense Star was wealthy, had deep connections and networking, and had the Crown Prince as well; that was the reason they could invite two real Sky Knights for professional guidance, maximizing the chance of passing the trial.
"He, he's not even a Sky Knight, and I can't beat him?"
Chen Shan couldn't believe it; after all, he had the potential to be a Sky Knight.
What did Chen Xiao'er have? Just a measly B-level metal ability user, ah, pshaw!
"People specialize in fleet operations, what can you, a Sky Knight, do against that?"
Sun Ruzheng, who just spoke, rubbed his forehead. Why was this kid so obtuse?
Ding Xiu beside him also had a look of distress; you thought being a Sky Knight and bullying ordinary combat pilots was dishonorable, but they were truly the unscrupulous ones.
Sky Knights were indeed the strongest individual tactical unit, but you had to consider the opponent's capabilities!
To take on the combat team single-handedly, if the rank matches at Barksdale Air Force Base had gone that way back then, which Sky Knight would want to participate?
Chen Fei's latest airship operational cluster included a flagship with a total length of 160 meters, twenty-four attack ships each 180 meters long, six logistics ships each 400 meters long, and twelve self-floating magnetic railguns; if the firepower were fully unleashed, the attack trajectory would instantaneously cover all sky regions surrounding a crystal jet. In such a scenario, any aerial combat skill wouldn't work; there's no room for evasion, even a graze would be akin to being insanely focused fired upon, this was no longer combat, but suicide.
"F-fleet?"
Chen Shan looked at his annoying brother in disbelief.
Jeez, a B-level ability user playing such high-end tactics?
"Hehe, your chosen tactical jet is just one of the 2948 carrier-based tactical jets in a ship formation I have, not counting backup jets. I have four such airship formations, unless you could go against a thousand, no, accurately, you'd need to go against a million to possibly beat me head-on." 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺
Chen Fei counted his hard power on his fingers right in front of Chen Shan.
Now the industrial production line was open inside the "Boundary Pearl" life space, some resources were already self-sustainable, so his strength and heritage were far more than just this.
"Are you joking?"
Chen Shan immediately felt he couldn't make sense of it; was Chen Xiao'er swapped with aliens?
Instead, his two Sky Knight mentors, Ding Xiu and Sun Ruzheng, exchanged a glance with each other, having not seen him for just a short while, and this "rookie" had become even more monstrous.
Truly worthy of being able to battle with the Sagali civilization head-on: the one-person army psi skill was terrifying; at least half the sovereignty on Blue Star probably wasn't his opponent.
"This joke is meaningless!"
Chen Fei shook his fingers and then snapped them again.
The scattered metal particles merged together rapidly again, countless geometric shapes flew around Chen Shan, quickly assembling into place.
A few minutes later, a tactical jet was restored to its original state, but Chen Shan was sitting on the ground, not inside the cockpit.
The originally psionically-created assembled combat aircraft, its disassembling and restoring depended solely on Chen Fei's will.
