Chapter 1680: Fierce Artillery Fire
Gu Fan and Lin Yue sped through the air, effortlessly bypassing the defensive line set up by the enemy along the coast, heading straight for the Demon Refining Island Base.
Previously, Gu Fan remembered the Demon Refining Island Base being submerged under volcanic magma. But now, it was restored to its original state, still resembling a black metallic mountain.
Dozens of helicopters hovered in the air, ready and waiting, as if they had anticipated Gu Fan’s arrival.
Unfortunately for them, Gu Fan and Lin Yue, working in tandem, dashed swiftly through the gaps between the dozens of helicopters.
"What’s going on?" The pilots in the helicopters hadn’t yet understood what happened when their helicopters disintegrated, sliced into pieces by Lin Yue’s Jian Qi.
Gu Fan paid no attention to the fate of the helicopters behind him; his mind was solely focused on reaching the Demon Refining Island Base, urgently wanting to uncover the secrets hidden there.
The base’s defense system soon detected the two figures approaching from the sky. Alarms sounded, and a variety of advanced weapons activated.
All kinds of artillery fired furiously, unleashing barrages on the two figures in midair.
An unrelenting storm of cannon fire ascended into the sky, akin to a torrential downpour of death, forcing Gu Fan and Lin Yue to dodge continuously in midair. Several close calls left them drenched in cold sweat.
Gu Fan felt his vision overcome by a sea of flashing firelight. The nearer he got, the brighter and hotter the firelight became, making him extremely uncomfortable.
A direct hit from a shell struck Gu Fan, blowing him to smithereens.
