Then.
She witnessed an incredible scene.
Before she could launch the tracking missile, the other party had already raised their autocannon, using rapid-fire mode to discharge at least ten shots.
The rapid-fire mode has a very high rate of fire, which demands a lot from the pilot’s control abilities. A slight mishandling and three hundred bullets could be spent in an instant, but the other party not only precisely controlled the number of bursts.
What shocked her even more was that the ten bullets actually struck the sa spot.
A single bullet couldn’t breach the defenses of the Blade, but ten bullets hitting the exact sa spot punched right through even the thickest armor.
The most terrifying part was that while firing these ten shots, the Sea Swallow still executed a tactical evasion maneuver, dodging to the side just in ti during the missile’s approach, so that not even the shockwave reached his cha.
The nimble evasive action, for an instant, almost made Qu Yaqi believe that the enemy wasn’t a cha, but a living, breathing person.
No.
Even a person couldn’t dodge tracking missiles with such agile movents.
Was this even possible?
Could an ace pilot manage such refined, smooth, and silky operations?
Knowing how the other party had breached her radar system, she now had an answer to how her cockpit had been penetrated as well.
It was another set of ten shots, aid at the sa spot; the last bullet, traveling through the hole made by the previous nine, hit her right between the eyes with deadly precision...
Was this person even human?
Qu Yaqi’s gaze froze on the image of the bullet striking her between the eyes, her mind went blank, losing the ability to think.
For a long while.
She finally snapped back to reality and reopened Duge’s file.
The file was simple, besides the na, it contained just a two-line personal description: "Kill One Every Ten Steps, leaving no trace for a thousand miles; upon completion, dust off your clothes and hide your skills and fa. A man’s romance is the stars and the sea."
Besides that, there was only a badge certifying him as an interdiate cha pilot, nothing else.
No age, no past achievents, no educational background...
He just seed like an ordinary newbie.
But Qu Yaqi knew he was definitely not a newcor. In reality, at the very least, he had to be at the level of an ace pilot. Being an examiner for eight months, Qu Yaqi had been defeated by novice cha before, but never so thoroughly.
From start to finish, she was practically rubbed into the ground.
Right at that mont.
Qu Yaqi could no longer bear to think about her nearly wrecked Blade, she quickly packaged the video, went offline and then went to find her instructor. She had to figure out, could an ace pilot actually perform to this extent?
...
Seeing that her instructor beca silent after watching the video, Qu Yaqi cautiously asked, "Instructor, what do you think? Is this person an ace pilot?"
It was as if the instructor had been brought back to consciousness. When he looked up, his eyes were bloodshot: "Impossible. Nobody in the world can do this, hitting the sa spot with a Sea Swallow while moving."
"Not even an ace pilot?" Qu Yaqi paused and asked.
"Ace pilots are human, not gods." The instructor nad Zhai Dong, with the title of senior cha pilot, even in the army, he was a figure who could move unhindered, but at that mont, he seed to be deeply shaken, looking at Qu Yaqi with a hoarse voice, "Maybe an ace pilot could manage it with a top-tier cha and various aiming assists, but with a Sea Swallow, it’s impossible for anyone..."
"But he did it twice," said Qu Yaqi.
"Can we contact him?" The instructor regained a bit of composure.
"He was just a candidate I encountered randomly; he left after the test. Unless we access his data from the war network server , there’s no way I could know who he is," said Qu Yaqi, "But to retrieve data from the war network server, you’d need at least central-level clearance, right?"
"..." The instructor was silent for a mont, "Qu, you go back to the war network right now, search for any trace of him. I’ll try to report this up the chain and see if we can check his data through the database."
"Instructor, for soone who took the interdiate cha pilot exam on the war network, it’s not worth it," Qu Yaqi jumped in surprise and said.
"It’s very worth it. If he can do it in the war network, then he can do it in reality as well, and that tells us sothing – he has mastered a special training thod," the instructor said, "This thod could very likely take our pilots to a new level."
"Instructor, is it possible that this Cultivation Technique has already been mastered by ace pilots, and we just don’t know about it?" Qu Yaqi asked.
"Two years from now, the main force of the Hil civilization will arrive. At this critical mont for human survival, if there’s a new training thod, the central wouldn’t hoard it, it would have already been distributed to all schools," the instructor looked at Qu Yaqi and said, "So, the only possibility is that this thod is solely in his possession."
"Oh," Qu Yaqi responded and then said, "Then is it possible that he found a loophole in the war network?"
"Then it’s even more crucial to report it," the instructor replied with a wry smile, "The war network is the crystallization of all human technology; all our scientific advancents can be replicated within it. Don’t forget, we can’t defeat the Hil civilization; the war network is our last resort. Everyone’s data will be uploaded into the war network, and ultimately, we will destroy the Green Star and wander into the cosmos. If there’s a loophole in the war network, it would be a disaster for us as well."
