Escape from Certain Death!

_2 And at this final moment…

Far away in the underground monitoring center of the security base, Wu Jie, of course, knew about the multiple missile strikes targeting the War Statistics Institute’s special aircraft.

It was inevitable to be hit, sooner or later to be struck midair.

What’s more troublesome is that the wreckage of the plane might fall in Nabiya, the region with the most complex armed territorial divisions.

So without any time to say much, Wu Jie shouted directly at Pakolin and Edison.

He ordered them to ensure Tang Xiao’s safety, promising that their reward would be satisfying!

As soon as his voice fell…

Boom, two loud explosions.

The missiles, closing in at high speed, exploded immediately after entering their kill radius around the plane.

The fierce explosion instantly released a large amount of shrapnel.

The powerful shock wave hit the plane as if it were rammed by a truck.

The splattering shrapnel, like high-speed cutting knives, fiercely pierced through the wings and the fuselage.

The turbofan engines, which were operational, were hit by metal fragments and burst into flames, and various parts flew chaotically.

The plane, with its wings broken off, had its body punctured by numerous pieces of debris.

Like a bird with broken wings, the plane lost its aerodynamic balance, trailing billowing black smoke as it plunged towards the vast ground below.

Although everyone had mentally prepared for the explosion in advance, the pilots in the cockpit were fine, Tang Xiao and the others hiding within the armored protective layer in the passenger cabin were unharmed, and the group of mercenaries hiding inside the vehicle were also fine…

But the plane with both wings broken off, not only lost flying power but also lost the possibility of emergency maneuvers, the aircraft began to shake and tremble wildly.

The plane, when it enters the high altitude, the cabin is completely sealed, and both pressurization and oxygen supply are provided so that everyone won’t freeze to death or suffocate from lack of oxygen.

But now, both sides of the plane’s fuselage had been riddled with holes by the fragments.

The pressure destabilized, it was like countless suction devices trying to suck everything out of the cabin.

The temperature plummeted rapidly, dropping continuously!

The air got thinner and thinner, severely insufficient in supply, without wearing a breathing mask, it wouldn’t be long before one would pass out from lack of oxygen!

Edison and the others hiding in the Humvee naturally suffered.

Though the vehicle was securely fixed and they would not be sucked out of the cabin, the lack of oxygen and the drop in temperature were unbearable.

It was like suddenly being throttled, no matter how hard they breathed in, they always felt out of breath.

Fortunately, amidst the misfortune…

After the plane was hit by two missiles, no new missiles came to explode it.

Otherwise, a plane exploding midair would surely leave no survivors.

Moreover, the plane had already begun to dive towards low altitude before the attack.

Now, after being exploded, without wings, its diving speed was even faster.

Hold breath for a few dozen seconds, and once the plane enters mid to low altitude, there won’t be suffocation from lack of oxygen.

Vibration!

Humming!

Due to many holes in the fuselage, the airflow ran wild, forming a ghostly howl like crying wolves.

Giving the current situation, the plane was inevitably going to crash hard.

At that time, the strong impact force would flatten the entire plane against the ground, smash it to pieces.

It’s not hard to imagine how tragic it would be if one continued to stay in the cabin then.

Therefore.

When the plane uncontrollably dove to an altitude below four thousand meters, the pilot issued a signal for parachuting to escape and hurriedly dumped the fuel.

If the plane were to crash without aviation fuel, it would not explode, and collateral damage would be much less.

Otherwise, crashing into the ground with a large amount of fuel, if it were to fall into a densely populated area, the casualties would be far too great.

At this time.

In the cabin, a series of beeps sounded, with flashing green lights indicating that it was safe to parachute.

At the same time, the rear hatch and side doors, which could open automatically, were all fully opened.

Everyone was professionally trained to parachute out and immediately began to exit in single file, leaving the plane.

The mercenaries, too, were not panicked by fear; as long as they were not blown up by a missile mid-air, there was nothing to fear.

Everyone quickly geared up, opened the door, and exited, bending their knees to lower their center of gravity, and moving swiftly along the cabin walls to find and don their parachute packs before jumping out calmly.

Edison, with his rich combat experience, was not in a rush to jump.

How could he jump into a war-torn conflict zone without securing enough supplies and ammunition?

He had his eyes on the four armored off-road vehicles and three armored Humvees.

Even a high-altitude drop wouldn’t necessarily smash them all.

So he quickly found the central control cabinet and air-dropped the cargo pallet directly.

Transport planes carrying vehicles and supplies all use standard cargo pallets.

For heavy airdrops, all that was needed was to add parachute packs and cushioning devices to the cargo pallets.

Following a series of clanging sounds, the released cargo pallets, along with the vehicles secured on them, detached from the cabin and plummeted from the sky, and Edison quickly followed by jumping out of the cabin.

Since there were no parachutes to slow their descent, the cargo pallets and vehicles fell to the ground astonishingly fast, much like weights.

The smoky plane emitted a terrifying wailing sound, uncontrollably nosediving into the distance.

Everyone was still gradually opening their parachutes in mid-air, slowly descending.

The vehicles and cargo pallets had already fallen from the sky, crashing into the desert with a thunderous impact, creating huge craters.

The starlight was dim, and the night was hazy.

Dozens of white parachutes, like drifting dandelions, gently floated down.

Before long,

Tang Xiao and her companions landed one after another, rolling to unload the force and stabilize, then quickly unstrapped their parachutes.

To prevent the night wind from picking up the parachutes and being dragged harshly across the ground by them.

Tang Xiao immediately turned on the tactical radio, notifying everyone:

“Count personnel, check equipment, be alert!!”

At the same time, Tang Xiao quickly pulled the Low-light Night Vision Device out of her tactical backpack and mounted it on her helmet.

Everything turned a pale green between heaven and earth.

She raised her sniper rifle and scanned the surroundings.

Jumping from an airplane, even if jumping together, it’s not possible to land in the same spot.

And jumping one after another was more likely to scatter everyone.

Therefore, after airborne troops landed, the first priority was to locate people and equipment and group together to increase their strength.

Because communication equipment was intact and gear was complete, everyone quickly gathered.

The seven vehicles that fell from the sky were also found one after another.

The impact of landing was immense, comparable to being rammed by heavy trucks – they were nearly reduced to piles of components.

To their relief,

the two nuclear warheads were still intact, there had been no nuclear leakage due to the violent collision, and some ammunition supplies were recovered.

Moreover, Edison and the others who landed subsequently had negotiated with Wu Jie via satellite communication terminal.

There was additional compensation for protecting Tang Xiao.

But unfortunately,

who launched the missile and took down the War Statistics Institute’s special plane was still unclear.

But the exact point where everyone landed happened to be in the most chaotic and dangerous region of Nabiya.

Just how dangerous?

While everyone was establishing defenses and preparing for a holdout,

a large number of armed militants were already charging in…
