Chapter 1259 Air Showdown

Accompanied by bursts of roar, the first group of three planes left the airport one after another.

"Who do you think will win?" Tilly asked.

"...Uh, do you want to bet on Chaos Drink?" Sylvie was unsure.

"No, just take a guess."

The latter seemed relieved, "Then I guess the second group, they are all selected from the first army, right?"

"Indeed," Tilly nodded, "What about you, Carmilla?"

"It doesn't matter which way, my princess," Camilla Darry sighed, "Although this thing is indeed magical, thirty people are equivalent to a dozen terrifying beasts. Even if it is doubled, The effect on the situation is still quite limited, so I’m afraid it’s not worth your concern.”

"That's just for now." Tilly smiled, "When I first came to Neverwinter, there were only a handful of factories on the river bank. Look at it now, it has almost reached Shoal Harbor. Besides, today's terrifying beasts and There were no changes four hundred years ago, but these things have only been out for more than half a year, and they have already been significantly changed several times. Who knows what they will develop into in the future."

"..." Carmilla was silent for a moment, "I can't help you. But I still have to take care of Sleeping Island. I've stayed here for too long."

"Sorry, I made you worry."

"No, Your Highness——"

"I know everything," Tilly said calmly, "You were supposed to leave Neverwinter after the Northern Expedition, but you stayed because of my problems. Thank you, Carmilla, I'm fine now."

The butler looked at her for a few seconds, then nodded slightly, "I understand. But I can't do it alone on Sleeping Island. If you have time, you'd better go back and take a look. The witches who stayed behind are all looking forward to it. Looking forward to your return."

"...Are they still unwilling to come to Neverwinter?"

"Yes. Some people are really... hurt too deeply."

Although it is only a small part, it also means that the bloody and cruel past has not been completely eliminated.

Maybe it will never go away.

"I will go back when the battle of divine will is won," Tilly said.

"What if the war is unwinnable?"

Just then, the second group of planes roared across the runway.

Tilly did not answer, but smiled, "Training has begun... Come on."

…

"Hey, do you think Her Royal Highness the Princess can really notice the movements of six planes at the same time?"

Finkin yelled from behind. The airflow flows against the fuselage, making a whistling sound. If it is facing the sea breeze, the noise can almost fill the entire cabin. If you don't roar hard, you can't hear what each other is saying.

"That's His Highness's business, Your Highness has the final say!" Goode also shouted back. At this time, he noticed that four of the six "numbers" on the distant airport had turned green, indicating that the second group was taking off.

Since they could not stay over the academy, a group of three planes almost unanimously chose to take a detour toward the sea. He can't see the movements of No. 4, 5, and 6 now, but there is no doubt that his opponent must have noticed their route, so they will definitely not follow them immediately - it takes time to climb and speed up, and they will rush into the first flyer. The advantageous area will definitely put itself at a disadvantage.

"When I think of His Highness looking at me, I feel a little nervous! If she can judge the direction of the crosshair, her sight must overlap with mine. Doesn't that mean that she is in my arms--"

The plane plummeted downwards.

Finkin, who was interrupted, yelled, "What the hell are you doing! Can you control it more steadily?"

"I'm saving you, fool! If Her Highness can see the crosshair, do you think she can see your mouth shape? Then you'll be lucky enough to dig in the mines!"

He immediately closed his mouth.

Goode looked around from the gap between the upper wing and the fuselage. He could only faintly see a black spot moving near the sea antenna in the distance, and the other one completely lost its trace. Apparently everyone chose to fight on their own.

Except for some basic concepts, Her Royal Highness the Princess has not taught how to conduct air combat. Everything must be judged by themselves. Perhaps even His Highness himself doesn't know - after all, the Sky Knight is something that has never existed before, and it is normal to need to explore it from scratch.

Since there are no rules to follow, choosing an open airspace and then adapting to the situation when the opponent is discovered is a safe way to deal with it.

He thought for a moment, turned around, and flew towards the shallow water port.

"Hey, where are you going?"

"To the west, go around the factory area!"

"Detour? Wouldn't it be better to just wait here for them to come?"

"But that's just equal opportunity!" Goode turned and shouted, "Think about how they will fly!"

He really doesn't care about victory or defeat, but the winner will obviously have a longer flight time.

"How else can you fly? Once you increase the altitude and speed, you can find us on the sea!"

That's right, because they don't know when the second group will be ready, the flying group cannot get the accurate time to attack, which makes them more inclined to defend, just like the knights who have chosen the battlefield and are waiting for the opponent to charge. .

And there is a method that allows him to seize the best opportunity to take the lead 100% of the time.

That's when the second group focused entirely on the plane over the ocean.

On open ground, large-scale movements of teams are often difficult to escape detection.

But the sky is not the ground. In addition to left and right, there are also up and down.

"If only we can see them but they can't see us, then the equality situation can be broken!" Goode said his thoughts out loud, "You don't think they must have less practice than us, right?"

"Ahaha... So that's it!" Finkin patted his shoulder hard, "I thought I was already cunning enough, but I didn't expect you to be more sinister than me! But I like it, so let's do it!"

Insidious...Are you praising me or scolding me? Good rolled his eyes, lowered the nose of the plane, and landed towards the sea. The height quickly converted into speed, and the fuselage was hidden under the sea cliff. At its lowest point, the plane's wheels were almost flush with the top of the ship's mast, and such a low flight also aroused unanimous glances from the sailors on the ship.

There were even cheers and whistles on the pier as the plane passed over Shoal Harbor!

The reaction of the migrants was obviously different. They all stared at the sky in shock, with expressions of fear. There was even a hint of turmoil in the queue to disembark.

"Don't fly too low, otherwise we will be filed with the police and we will have to clean the toilets for another month!" Finkin reminded.

"Don't worry, this distance should be enough." Goode slowly pulled back the control stick, and the plane jumped out of the horizon a little bit, and rushed into the factory area - this is equivalent to the west side of the airport, and there are smoke columns rising all year round. It is unlikely that the group will choose to climb here.

"Huh?" Tilly, who was staring at the sky through her magic eyes, let out a soft sigh.

"That...escaped?" Sylvie also noticed this scene.

"Maybe I just can't sit still." Tilly said with a half-smile.

Under the vision of the magic eye, the entire sky can be seen at a glance - the three biplanes of the rear flight group have all taken off at this moment. Unlike the first group, the first military cadet did not go to the beach to search immediately after flying. The opponent continued to circle in the north until the third plane was also ready, and then flew south in a row.

Although this move took longer to assemble, it also kept the three machines from being too far apart.

interesting. Tilly muttered silently. She has neither taught the students how to fight, nor arranged the airspace and formations for simulated battles. It can be said that whether they disperse and fight alone, or form a small team to act collectively, it is their own decision.

There is no doubt that no matter who wins or loses, after today, the combat part of the "Flight Manual" will no longer be blank.

"Sure enough, they are not here." After Gude confirmed that no trace of his opponent was found, he immediately increased the throttle to the limit. The plane roared and climbed high into the sky. It was not until the wind around him died down that he turned to level flight, heading southeast. .

There is no reference in the vast sky. Even if someone from the second group looks over at this time, they will only mistake the black dot the size of a sesame seed as a goshawk.

After Unit 2 made a large circle, it returned to the Sky Knight Academy from the rear.

At this time, the three biplanes of the second group had already flown into the whirlpool sea, accelerating towards the target closest to them!
