The virtual empire starts from the game

Chapter 591 The Fate of the Regular Army! The Mothership Shows Its Health Bar! (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

"Haha, your grandpa's here!!"

The roar of the fighter jets was deafening.

Players who flew their fighter jets from Lord of War all the way to the skies above the city of Mansheng were thrilled.

Without hesitation, it swooped down, almost touching the buildings on both sides of the street, and unleashed a torrent of bullets from its machine gun!

The players who were fighting on the ground had just cheered when they saw a hail of bullets raining down on them!

"Fuck!"

"You fucking watch out!"

"Fight aliens?! What are you doing fighting us?!"

……

The infantry on the ground were complaining wildly.

The pilot in the fighter jet laughed loudly: "Who can tell all that apart!"

"Let's die together!"

"Anyway, I can be resurrected!"

The players on the ground quickly snapped out of their euphoria at the arrival of air reinforcements, cursing "Damn it!" as they frantically searched for cover.

As soon as the first fighter jet roared past, the fighter jets that followed followed suit, mindlessly sweeping towards the ground units.

With the release of the "Lord of War" DLC up to "Air Combat Heroes," the variety of fighter jets has become quite extensive.

In no time, JF-17 Thunder, F-15, F-2, Tejas, Mirage, MiG, Typhoon... all sorts of fighter jets flew over the bustling metropolis.

From the oldest biplane fighters to the most advanced third-generation fighters in the virtual world...

We have everything you could want!
They successfully inflicted effective casualties on ground troops.

The alien bio-turrets were quickly destroyed, and the alien warriors were continuously blown up.

However, soon, a dense swarm of squid shuttles came up and fought endlessly with these fighter jets under the blue sky of the sprawling metropolis.

Fighter jets and alien shuttles kept exploding in mid-air after being hit.

Pieces of debris fell and crashed into the battlefield below.

Every now and then, they'll smash a few players or aliens into a pulp.

……

The importance of air superiority is beyond doubt.

After noticing that fighter jets could be flown, a massive number of players logged into "Lord of War" and rushed over in their fighter jets.

Not only did they engage in combat with the "squid shuttle," but some pilots also attempted to bypass the shuttle and directly strike the alien mothership!

At first, this was completely impossible.

No aircraft could break through the shuttle's defenses and reach the vicinity of the alien mothership.

But an hour later, the situation suddenly changed—

Twelve JF-12 Thunder fighter jets and twelve JF-12 Mighty Dragon fighter jets, arranged in neat formation, streaked across the sky and flew over the battlefield!
Just before engaging the squid shuttle, they split into two teams, one above and one below.

They then quickly split up again into 12 two-plane formations, launching a dazzling array of tactical maneuvers into the battle!

Unlike player pilots who fight individually and shoot whatever they see, this is different.

These 12 twin-aircraft formations fought with remarkable discipline!
Various advances, disengagements, cover maneuvers, and strangulation maneuvers were executed flawlessly!
After shooting down alien shuttles twice their size, they still maintained zero casualties.

They even kept getting closer to the alien mothership!
Countless snipers on the rooftop looked up, their eyes glued to the tense, exciting, and spectacular air battle.

In the stream of the heroic sniper, the viewers were stunned:

"Is this even a human being capable of playing teamwork like this?!"

"Wow, fighter jets can also coordinate in small squads? Who's so amazing that they can command them in time?"

"Command my ass! In this kind of low-altitude dogfight, it's too late by the time you give the order!"

"So this is... a regular army, right?"

"Who said they were evenly matched with active-duty pilots? How could they possibly be evenly matched?!"

……

Even the valiant sniper was dumbfounded. The development team behind Dream Chaser was no longer what it used to be; with massive funds and talent, they were doing increasingly outrageous things in game development.

The fighter jets in the virtual world are almost a one-to-one replica of those in reality.

—It's not just the appearance that's a one-to-one replica; the performance and driving experience of the fighter jet are also replicated in the same way.

Especially export models from various countries.

The development team of "Lord of War" even submitted a procurement plan, wanting to buy one of each of the world's mainstream export fighter jets as a reference.

They even wanted to use Yin Zhiyuan's connections to get the development team members some fighter jet training and let them fly these fighter jets in the sky.

This plan infuriated Yang Wan, who held the reins of finance.

She stormed to the Lord of War project office and lashed out, nearly cursing, which nipped the far-fetched plan in the bud.

The development team then opted for a less desirable option: directly purchasing the opportunity to experience riding in a fighter jet.

This opportunity exists in many countries, and the price is much cheaper than buying fighter jets directly, and the process is also simpler.

Once the sensory data is obtained, the specific parameters can be filled in by guessing from publicly available data.

That's how it started.

Later, various fighter jet design drawings and performance parameters continued to appear in Mengjin's "Air Combat Heroes" section...

This is all thanks to the players.

Without hesitation, the development team adjusted the fighter jet parameters in the game according to the data.

As a result, the fighter jet piloting experience is becoming more and more realistic!

Of course, for the sake of players' gaming experience, driving is divided into two modes: [Simplified Mode] and [Pro Mode].

Even players who have never touched a fighter jet before can grasp the rudder and start flying right away.

However, if you want to perfectly control a fighter jet, then you absolutely must use [Pro Mode].

There are many players who hone their skills by following tutorials—players from all over the world.

The incredibly realistic gameplay, coupled with long battles where players are fearless of death, has indeed honed many players to a high level of skill.

With so many players like this, it's inevitable that some will become overconfident.

I feel that I'd be about evenly matched with a real fighter pilot.

Some people even believe that they have experienced more "real combat" than pilots in reality.

They might actually have a better chance of winning!

But now, seeing these 24 fighter jets working in perfect unison, crisscrossing and maneuvering through the alien shuttles, emerging unscathed...

Even the most arrogant players are speechless.

Ten minutes later, a Raptor fighter jet broke through the defenses and rushed close to the alien mothership.

A missile was launched, and the 23mm cannon roared as it unleashed a barrage of firepower at the mothership!

Under the tense gaze of countless eyes, both missiles and bullets successfully hit the ship's hull.

Unfortunately, the mothership was too sturdy.

Neither missiles nor fighter jet cannons could penetrate the mothership's armor.

But the mothership's durability did indeed fluctuate slightly—

[two%]
The raptor, which was diving, suddenly pulled up vertically and soared into the sky, creating distance between itself and the pursuing squid shuttle squadron.

Other fighter jets rushed forward and unleashed a barrage of fire on the pursuing shuttle!

A successful Raptor fighter jet smoothly pulls up into inverted flight, then quickly straightens its fuselage to join its teammates.

He shouted in the team chat:
"Attack ineffective! Our firepower is insufficient! We cannot shoot down this behemoth!"

But then he heard his teammate's smiling voice: "No, the attack was successful."

"Effective?" He didn't understand.

"Look down," his teammate reminded him.

He looked down and saw that the players on the ground were cheering and jumping for joy!
"What are they happy about?" he asked, puzzled.

The deafening roar of the engines and machine guns made him unable to hear the thunderous roar of the mountains and the tsunami on the ground.

But judging from the crowd's excitement, it was as if they had already won!
