Changkong Fighter

Chapter 326 Crossing the Wormhole!

The air-launched missile on the heavy-duty pylon under the fuselage is launched. The solid rocket accelerates the missile, and once the speed exceeds a certain value, the dual-mode ramjet engine enters the working state, and a large amount of gas is drawn into the missile body. Although the exact oxygen content in the air is unknown, it is enough for the air-launched missile to enter scramjet mode.

The ramjet engine propelled the missile into a speed of Mach 11. The exact speed could not be calculated due to the lack of information about atmospheric conditions, but the missile could only be seen as an afterimage in the air as it flew toward the enormous crystal palace.

At this moment, perhaps because they had been suppressing human civilization for a long time, the only defensive force around the alien civilization's palace was a few scattered anti-aircraft guns, with beams of purple lasers shooting from the ground into the sky.

However, the laser, which was expected to hit directly, failed to penetrate the missile's maneuverable trajectory. When the laser shone on the missile, the special coating material absorbed heat through evaporation, and the missile's serpentine maneuvering prevented the laser from burning it continuously. Moreover, the hypersonic speed made it difficult for the missile to be shone.

The missiles flew through the air in S or Z shapes, and amidst the ground-based air defense fire and the desperate gazes of Patrick Stars, they were delivered to the target area and finally exploded above the Crystal Palace.

Before the hydrogen bomb was detonated, the whole world seemed to fall silent, as if it knew that something unbearable was about to explode. The next second, a sun shone above the Crystal Palace.

No! What rose at this moment was not the sun, but a light that was countless times brighter than the sun—a man-made supernova explosion!

Under the intense light, the palace below melted rapidly like butter under high temperature. It was unclear what was inside the palace, but it seemed that the energy device inside had also been affected by the fusion reaction, and began to show the same changes as when a Type 3 nuclear bomb exploded, with more energy bursting out!
Immediately following was a deafening roar, as if it could tear through space and time and transmit the sound to Earth, and the planets seemed to resonate with it.

The violent shockwave spread wildly in all directions, and the manufacturing plant in the air was blown out of control by the shockwave, crashing heavily to the ground. Countless condensed crystals scattered out and were then blown away by the gale, including some of the newly built 400-meter-class warships.

The forest surrounding the palace was uprooted by the violent shockwave. These giant trees, some of which were carbonized, tilted outward from the center of the crystal palace, forming a huge artificial basin.

Around the wormhole generator, Liu Jun's two PL-10 missiles destroyed the energy crystal. The energy within, capable of tearing through space and stabilizing spacetime, erupted, causing the earth to tremble violently and billowing dust to rise into the air. The wormhole exploded like a collapsing black hole.
However, Liu Jun couldn't see any of this. He had already flown into the wormhole, just like when he traversed it before, returning to Earth from where he came from.

The moment he entered the wormhole, he experienced the same feeling as when he traversed it before. The whole world was changing, both in time and space. Everything around him was invisible, and Liu Jun was plunged into darkness. He had also destroyed the energy device before entering the wormhole.

He didn't know what had happened on the other side; all he knew was that the passage behind him was rapidly collapsing and spreading toward where he was.

"Faster! Faster!" he kept shouting in his mind to the J15T below, even though he knew that the J15T's speed was not affected by his will.

Looking at the gradually collapsing passage in the rearview mirror, Liu Jun didn't know what would happen after the wormhole collapsed. Would he be crushed into dust by space, or thrown into other dimensions, and ultimately die in despair because he lost the resources to survive?

But he had to give it his all. Fortunately, before rushing into the wormhole, he didn't hold back and opened the throttle to the maximum. The thrust provided by the two WS-10H engines gave him an initial speed of Mach 1.2 to enter the wormhole.

He didn't know how much time had passed. Judging from the plane's timer, time was ticking away second by second, but Liu Jun suspected this was just his perception; the flow of time around him wasn't as he thought. Suddenly, a light appeared ahead in the passage and rapidly approached, while the collapsing space behind him was also gradually closing in on J-15T. It was like a race: would Liu Jun fly out of the wormhole first, or would the collapsing space catch up?
His temples throbbed slightly from the moment the space behind him collapsed. As the space drew closer, electric currents began to run through his brow, and his heart even began to beat abnormally. Every part of it reminded him that he was really going to die!

With a snap, the tail nozzle was caught up by the collapsing space, and the Flying Shark's long "tailbone" disappeared in the spatial collapse, as if it had been swallowed whole by an invisible giant mouth.

Ding Dong!Ding Dong!
The moment the tailbone disappeared, an alarm sounded in the cockpit, and then the part representing the tailbone on the helmet display began to flash, and the machine began to be gradually crushed by an unseen giant hand.

Even with an oxygen mask, Liu Jun felt short of breath, his heart pounding. The threat of death made him feel suffocated, and his adrenaline surged. Time seemed to slow down at that moment.

The light ahead grew closer and closer, and just then, a cracking sound seemed to come from afar. Liu Jun's eyes darted around, looking towards the source of the sound. He saw a crack appear on the digital cockpit canopy, and the entire aircraft was vibrating, as if an invisible giant hand was squeezing the Flying Shark.

"Hold on, girl!" Liu Jun kept encouraging the fighter jet beneath him in his mind.

Ding Dong!Ding Dong!
The onboard AI issued another warning, and the sensors throughout the aircraft began to alarm. The high-temperature and wear-resistant nozzles, made of special materials, collapsed at a microscopic level, like "crispy ice."

Soon!

Soon!
Amidst the aircraft's alarm, a beam of light illuminated the entire cockpit. At that moment, Liu Jun felt as if a long period of time had passed. Tinnitus enveloped the entire world, and he couldn't see anything ahead with his naked eye. He felt completely out of place in this world, as if he were about to be expelled from it.

When color returned to his eyes, Liu Jun sat in his seat, almost completely exhausted, his back soaked with sweat.

But the crisis was not over. The moment the fighter jet flew out of the wormhole, all the sensors screamed. The aircraft was severely damaged, with internal injuries, and it fell to the ground in a negative dive.

Pull the stick! No response from the control surfaces!

Lock the rudder!

Liu Jun immediately realized that the Flying Shark was going too fast. He eased off the throttle, activated the speed brakes, and adjusted the counterweight!
Pull the lever again!

Get up! Girl! You can do it!

With a roar in Liu Jun's heart, the J-15T's elevator and canard slowly rotated together, and the J-15T's fuselage slowly recovered from the dive and entered level flight!
