While shooting down aerial targets with guided bombs and anti-ship missiles seems like an incredible idea, the sheer size of airships and their current slow speed make this possible.

Orca Squadron's Super Hornet fighters immediately swerved their wings to change course, while BlackDeath's team, piloting the Fat Electric, also turned to attract the attention of the Foehn Magician.

"Ignore those Super Hornets and F-35Cs circling around. Those two air-to-air attack squadrons are just covering two other squadrons of Super Hornets with air-to-ground payloads. Girls, prepare to intercept those guided bombs and anti-ship missiles. We absolutely cannot let a single guided bomb or anti-ship missile hit the Fraxinus at Ratatosk!"

Lin Haiyuan loudly reminded them over the communication channel that the situation of that airship could not be allowed to worsen.

"Okay, got it! Everyone, spread out across the warships and prepare to intercept!"

Charlotte and the other Fiery Wind Magicians immediately dispersed to various parts of the warship, keeping a watchful eye on everything and ready to use their neutron rifles to eliminate the heavy bombs and anti-ship missiles at any time.

While the Harpoon's toothpick-like warhead and short range might be looked down upon by those who prefer granite and volcanic rock supersonic anti-ship missiles, bombarding the already malfunctioning and under-repair Fraxinus is still quite a headache.

"We will not stand idly by either. Ulmus will do its best to cover the sky above Fraxinus. Please, Foehn Winds, protect the other directions as much as possible."

Woodman then spoke up, no longer staying by Fraxinus's side, but instead increasing his flight altitude and moving to the top of Fraxinus's head.

The Wind Magicians atop the warship could sense the arbitrary domain unfolding from Ulmus protecting the upper part of Fraxinus.

"I see. That way we don't have to worry about bombs falling from above or anti-ship missiles flying in. Now we can just focus on the six o'clock position."

Gardenia did a great job against Woodman's "Ulmus," using her own warships and random domains to block the attack for "Fraxinus."

"However, our enemies are not just those fighter jets, but also the magicians of DEM."

As Lin Haiyuan spoke, he turned to the side and dodged several green beam attacks from Bondsky and the DEM Magician on the back of the fighter jet.

"Ah, it seems the interception operation isn't going so smoothly, but we can only do our best."

Youhua Zhizi felt that the achievement of intercepting all the guided bombs and anti-ship missiles thrown at them was a bit difficult to achieve, especially with the Magician interfering.

"There's no other way. I don't have any long-range weapons. I'll go hunt down those magicians and fighter jets. I'll leave the task of intercepting missiles and bombs to you."

After Lin Haiyuan finished speaking, he rushed out from the shadow cast by "Ulmus" on the upper layer of "Fraxinus", carrying a long spear of "Heroic Spirit War Maiden" and charged out to fight those magicians.

Since those magicians intend to disrupt the battlefield, then she will also disrupt the battlefield and see who can gain more advantage from this mess.

"Don't worry, Burst Bee is online. Burst Bee will take care of some of the US Navy's fighter jets for you."

Alice's voice came through the communication channel.

Meanwhile, in the skies above the Anali Islands ahead of Fraxinus and Ulmus, 48 ​​Burst Bee Daisy fighters, glowing green flames, roared at Mach 2.2 as they flew toward the U.S. Navy aircraft that were happily drawing anti-aircraft fire.

"Calling Orca-one, calling Orca-one, this is BlackDeath-One, the little warthog has appeared! The little warthog has appeared! Repeating that, the little warthog has appeared!"

BlackDeath-One was startled when he saw the Bursting Bee flying rapidly from afar.

"A little warthog? BlackDeath-one, are you kidding me?"

Orca-one was puzzled by the appearance of the little warthog. No matter how you looked at it, there was no way that the wind could reach that far to release the little warthog here.

"Orca-one, it's true, I'm not kidding! Damn it, the little warthogs are charging! Everyone, get ready for cover!"

BlackDeath-one's call sounded panicked.

Two Burst Bees flew side by side, making sharp turns and roaring as they attacked BlackDeath-one's F-35C from both flanks.

"Damn it."

BlackDeath immediately pushed off the rudder and pulled back on the stick to perform a maneuver similar to the Breaking S, narrowly missing two Burst Bees. However, this left his rear exposed to the Burst Bees.

"Die, you insect."

Alice clicks on two Burst Bees that are chasing BlackDeath-two to attack BlackDeath-one.

"BlackDeath-one, two Warthogs are suddenly heading your way!"

BlackDeath-two immediately warned BlackDeath-one.

"What?!"

BlackDeath-one's face, hidden behind his breathing mask, showed a look of horror as he turned his head and saw that two Burst Bees were already rushing towards him.

"Ah-ba-ba, ba-ba-ba!"

One after another, the Burst Bees, emitting incoherent electronic sounds, crashed into BlackDeath-one's fighter jet. The first Burst Bee struck Bondsky's randomly generated field, instantly releasing the plasma within it.

DOBOOM!!!

Amidst the scorching green light emitted by the exploding plasma, the powerful impact and terrifying heat instantly shattered the random domain, causing both the fighter jet and Bondsky to veer off course as if they had been punched. The second Burst Bee passed through the scorching plasma and crashed directly into the fighter jet.

In the intense heat of the plasma explosion, BlackDeath-one and Bondsky were annihilated together with the plasma that cooled and spread outwards.

"BlackDeath-one, no!"

BlackDeath-two witnessed BlackDeath-one being sent to meet God by two Burst Bees.

Soon, the two Burst Bees that were originally chasing BlackDeath-one drew beautiful trails in the sky, like sharp swords piercing straight at BlackDeath-two.

The first Burst Bee destroys the random area, the second Burst Bee destroys the fighter jet and Bondsky, that's what a group of Burst Bees is supposed to do.

Forty-eight Burst Bees entered the battlefield airspace, clearly making the sky even more lively. After BlackDeath-one and BlackDeath-two were killed in a kamikaze attack by a group of two Burst Bees, the remaining US Navy pilots realized that random airspace could not protect them from the mutual destruction attacks of these suicide drones. They immediately changed their previous casual shooting attitude and began to stare at the Burst Bees with tension.

These Burst Bees lock onto targets without triggering an RWR warning, so these US Navy pilots have to painfully rely on visual identification and luck to see which Burst Bees are targeting them or their teammates.

However, these pieces of experience will not save the US Navy pilots who have turned from hunters into prey, because these Burst Bees are controlled by a super AI and a commander. A group of Burst Bees can switch targets at any time and turn the nearest target into aerial fireworks. With their extremely strange maneuverability and twice the speed of sound, those US Navy pilots immediately experienced the fear of being unable to fly or land.

"Orca-one, these little warthogs are incredibly agile; our Slammers can't hit them!"

Orca-four launched two AIM-120D missiles but failed to catch up with these flying little warthogs, while the speed of these burst bees remained unchanged at Mach 2.2.

"Fox-two!"

Orca-two's Super Hornet pulled up and launched two AIM-9X air-to-air missiles toward the two Burst Hornets that were chasing him.

If these two Burst Bees weren't controlled by a commander or AI, their monotonous flight path would make them easy targets for the AIM-9X's infrared seeker, which would track them down with its green plasma flame. However, these Burst Bees on the battlefield are now being controlled by two super AIs.

The two Burst Bees immediately pitched up and climbed vertically toward the sun. Then, almost as if they were falling, they made a rapid dive. In an instant, the Sidewinder missiles lost sight of the target Burst Bee and could only head toward the unreachable heat source, the sun. Then, losing their last bit of propulsion, they fell back down under the influence of Earth's gravity and then self-destructed according to instructions.

Bondsky, on the back of the Orca-two, did a favor by raising his hand and firing a green beam at the Burst Bee.

The Burst Bee, which had no time to dodge, had half of its wing shot off. The disruption of its aerodynamic shape was also fatal for the Burst Bee. Its flight path became chaotic, and it rolled and crashed into another Burst Bee on the other side.

DOBOOM! The collision of the two Burst Bees could only result in a beautiful but deadly plasma explosion.

Just as Orca-two was celebrating his good fortune in landing two Burst Bees at the same time, two Burst Bees below his fuselage immediately raised their heads and crashed into him.

Orca-two was fortunately annihilated by the exploding plasma, plunging into eternal darkness.

After the Burst Bees joined the battlefield, the entire airspace immediately became chaotic, with US Navy fighter jets being chased everywhere by the Burst Bees. Most pilots used a tactic of using a lead/wingman to lure the Burst Bees, and then the lead/wingman would follow up and use cannons or missiles to take down the Burst Bees that were attacking from behind. However, under the control of WalkerNet AI and Odin AI, these tactics were not very effective, as these drones were extremely cunning.

The chaotic airspace was a nightmare for Kudlevel and Pill squadrons, who were on anti-ship attack missions. They were in danger of colliding with friendly aircraft and Burst Bees if they weren't careful.

First of all, it is certain that in such a chaotic airspace, with another airship deploying its shields to protect the top of that airship, it would be extremely difficult to drop the Gemway or the JDAM onto the warship. The only weapon that could be used was the Harpoon anti-ship missile.

Kudlevel and Pill squadrons had no choice but to launch two Harpoon anti-ship missiles from their racks toward the target, Fraxinus.

The Harpoon anti-ship missile detached from its pylon, its turbojet engine ignited, and it flew towards the unprotected airborne warship, trailing a white plume of smoke. For the Harpoon anti-ship missile, there really is no better target than the Fraxinus, not only because it is slow but also because it is large enough.

During a lull in his fight with the magician, Lin Haiyuan spotted a Harpoon anti-ship missile flying in from afar. He immediately thrust his gun straight through the DEM magician's casual domain, then used his left hand like an eagle claw to grab the DEM magician's neck and pull him towards himself.

Boom! ! !

"Waaah!"

The DEM magician's forehead struck Brunhilde's shoulder armor, and he groaned before losing consciousness. Lin Haiyuan then threw the DEM magician at Fraxinus as a projectile.

"Commissar Youhua, catch that DEM magician who's been knocked unconscious. I'll handle the Harpoon anti-ship missile at the 9 o'clock position."

After Lin Haiyuan finished speaking, he accelerated toward the Harpoon anti-ship missiles attacking the Fraxinus. There were a total of 48 Harpoon anti-ship missiles, but since they were launched by two combat squadrons on both sides of the warship, there should be an average of 24 Harpoon anti-ship missiles coming from the left and right flanks. If Hua Zhizi and the others were to deal with the Harpoon anti-ship missiles coming from both directions, they would be overwhelmed.

"OK."

Gardenia replied that she had already seen the DEM magician, whose limbs were being haphazardly manipulated and spun around in the air, flying towards Fraxinus.

She leaped forward and caught the DEM magician like a volleyball, then placed him in the dent of the warship's hull. The DEM magician was unconscious, and the CR-UNIT had already stopped functioning.

"Valkyrie 01 to 15, turn to the 3 o'clock position to prepare for interception. Battalion Commander Artemisia will intercept the attack from the 9 o'clock position. Move forward to engage!"

The three spiked rings of the gardenia-covered Nirvash were now glowing with an even brighter pale pink halo, and the raging, scorching plasma was already brewing at a singularity inside the device, under the constraints of magic and magnetic fields.

"Yes!"

Fifteen Wind Magicians immediately left the warship with Gardenia and headed forward to intercept the Harpoon anti-ship missiles.

The Harpoon anti-ship missiles launched by Pill Squadron are all concentrated on attacking the bridge of the warship in Fraxinus, which is perfect for the plasma wave shock with Gardenia to play an effective role.

These plasma waves, accompanied by ear-ripping explosions, erupted from the two triple plasma cannons, roaring and rolling forward.

Even the magician's arbitrary domain could not withstand the impact of the plasma wave, and the fragile Harpoon anti-ship missile was instantly destroyed in the plasma wave.

However, the plasma wave could not last for too long, so some Harpoon anti-ship missiles still managed to slip through the net and continue their charge toward Fraxinus.

The other magician girls weren't just standing around doing nothing; their neutron rifles proved invaluable at this point.

The hyperspace beam easily struck the incoming Harpoon anti-ship missile, which immediately became a transparent blue frame before disappearing into spacetime within two seconds, leaving behind a hyperspace fluctuation.

For dealing with the vast majority of objects without shield protection, especially missiles and artillery shells, chronospace weapons are the best choice because they can effectively and safely eliminate the opponent without triggering any explosion.

Despite being intercepted by plasma waves and hyperspace beams, three Harpoon anti-ship missiles still failed to be intercepted and flew straight toward the warship.

Catching these three escapees won't be difficult for the magician girls.

The zero gravity and acceleration provided by the random field allowed them to quickly catch up with the Harpoon anti-ship missiles heading straight for the warship, and then use neutron rifles to wipe these Harpoon anti-ship missiles, which were dangerous to the warship, from the world.

After the Harpoon anti-ship missile threat on the right flank of Fraxinus was eliminated, it didn't mean they were at ease for the time being. On the contrary, the DEM magicians attacked again.

Walker.com AI and Odin had a tacit understanding that when they intercepted the Harpoon, they used Burst Bees to intimidate the DEM magicians and prevent them from interfering with the Valkyrie Battalion girls' interception of anti-ship missiles. Now that the mission of intercepting anti-ship missiles was completed, the Burst Bees continued to hunt down the plastic bugs and fat electric ones that hadn't even had a chance to catch their breath.

"Stop using neutron rifles, which are ineffective against magicians. Get out your melee weapons and fight them!"

Gardenia held her Aroundight sword, pointing it forward.

"oh!!"

The girls of the Valkyrie battalion brandished their double-edged lightsabers in unison, a stark contrast to the "armory of melee weapons" in Ratatosk. Of course, these girls were also equipped with other melee weapons.

"Let's go!"

The four-engine cyclone engine on the gardenia-covered Nirvash hummed silently as she, gripping Aroundight, charged with the other female magicians towards the DEM magicians, launching a fierce battle.

Compared to the lively scene on the gardenia's side, Lin Haiyuan's side was equally bustling, except that the noise wasn't from people, but from the sound of the wind!

She held up a long spear, raising a huge air pressure ball composed entirely of extremely high-speed air currents. This air pressure ball pulsated like a human heart, but it was not only pulsating but also expanding. Each pulsation caused the air pressure ball to expand, until the power of her mind could no longer restrain such a huge and violent air pressure ball from exploding.

Listening to the whistling wind from the barometer, those eyes, the same color as the sky, reflected the blue sky, white clouds, and azure sea, and finally, the Harpoon anti-ship missile flying towards Fraxinus with a white trail of smoke.

After watching the distance between the Harpoon anti-ship missiles and the distance between the Fraxinus missiles shorten to a certain point, she threw the air pressure ball towards the predicted point, and then swept away the DEM magician who was launching a sneak attack.
