Chapter 351 Supersonic speed
.
With the ground forces, Verard sent four Raptor fighters and eight Apa aircraft to participate in the blocking operation. Eight Apache armed helicopters were parked in various directions outside the ambush encirclement, and four Raptor fighters were hovering at a height of 10,000 meters. The remaining fifteen Raptor fighters were also ready at the base and could take off and rush to the blocking site at any time. Because everyone knew that once Shi Tian rushed out of the encirclement, or he had not entered the encirclement at all, the ground forces could not catch up with him no matter how much. At that time, even Apache helicopters might not be able to catch up with him, and they could only rely on Raptor fighters to pursue him.
Captain of the Navy Seals, Colonel Wells, ambushed on a small hill with twenty battle-hardened players. He had just learned from the message from the Pentagon that the target was about ten kilometers away from the place where they were ambushing, but it would only take two minutes to enter their attack range. No matter what mission Wells performed before, even if he went deep into the enemy base alone, he had never been nervous. At this time, a layer of tiny beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
Fortunately, as long as the boy did not change his movement route, he would pass by the open space under the hillside with hundreds of mines. Wells immediately ordered to shrink the encirclement and let some of the Rangers in the rear approach the encirclement.
In the joint conference hall of the Pentagon, everyone stared at the scene taken by the satellite and watched Shi Tian approach the ambush point. Helena was in a very complicated mood at this time, and felt that it was not right to destroy a young life with amazing power, but she knew that she could not let this person enter Washington. Without being sure to control him, she had to eliminate him. There was no other choice.
The blocking troops were hidden in the dark. Wearing camouflage uniforms suitable for the terrain, it was difficult to find them from the satellite shooting scenes. However, the technicians had already marked the location of the blocking troops with a red circle. They could clearly see Shi Tian approaching the red circle step by step. It felt like watching a small flying insect flying towards a spider web, not knowing that danger was coming.
One minute...thirty seconds...ten seconds...five seconds...
The black dot finally hit the red circle. As long as he takes a step closer, all kinds of devastating bullets and artillery fire will overwhelm it. Not to mention a person, even a whole piece of steel will definitely be smashed.
At this moment, a sudden change occurred. Shi Tian was originally just a moving black dot. At this time, it suddenly turned into a black line on the LCD screen, passing through the red earth encirclement at an unimaginable speed, and broke out of the satellite surveillance range and disappeared on the screen. Everyone in the joint conference hall stood up in shock. Although they knew that the boy was perverted, no one could have thought that the carefully arranged blocking plan would not even have the chance to fire a shot.
Helena sighed to Najol beside her, "You are right, he really didn't do his best just now."
Naroel was not proud of the president's recognition at all, and said in a trembling voice: "But... I didn't expect him to be like this..." Turning around and asking a technician under his command, "How fast was he just now?"
The technician hurriedly replied: "The speed is estimated to be between 1,800 and 2,300 kilometers per hour. The blocking location is less than 200 kilometers away from Washington. If he does not slow down, he will be able to reach the Pentagon or the White House in five minutes."
A burst of exclamations could not help but sounded in the joint conference hall. The boy was running at nearly twice as fast as the speed of sound. Even if he could fly supersonically, the Raptor fighter was not as fast as his. This showed that he could no longer stop his pace.
Verard frowned and said, "Continue to monitor and find his position immediately. I don't think he can keep this speed, otherwise he would have stood in front of us long ago." After saying that, he issued an order. All fighters and helicopters immediately pursued Washington, and the ground blocking troops also immediately returned to the Pentagon, leaving only a part of the troops responsible for clearing the mines to avoid injuring innocent civilians.
In 1997, the United States signed a mine ban agreement to stop reproduction and use of mines, but in 2004, the United States announced its mine policy, aiming to abandon the long-term goals of the mine ban agreement and start producing anti-infantry mines at the end of the following year. However, the U.S. government promised to destroy it on its own after each use and would not pose a threat to civilians.
No matter how fast Shi Tian's speed was, it was not as fast as the satellite's eyes. Several technicians quickly found Shi Tian's location again, reporting: "Mr. Minister, I found him..." Then he said in surprise: "But the direction of his movement has changed... He... He went back..."
Verard couldn't understand the technician for a moment and asked, "What?"
************************************************
The feeling of the Shanghai SEALs blocking position was different from that of the people in the Pentagon. Shi Tian disappeared immediately when he first entered their sight. It was not as clear as the people in the Pentagon could see through the satellites. The only way they could feel was a shadow as fast as lightning and a roar that broke through the air swept over their heads. All the snipers, including Wells, couldn't help but fall into a daze and became completely at a loss, and they didn't come back to their senses until they received the order from Villard.
Wells gritted his teeth and ordered the fortification soldiers to remove the mines. The other SEALs and Rangers Special Forces were heading towards Washington as fast as possible. Although he knew he could no longer catch up with Shi Tian, he wanted to rush back as much as possible to participate in the battle to defend the White House and the Pentagon. Today's blocking operation has become an unprecedented shame for him and the entire SEALs, which is thousands of times more uncomfortable than dying on the position.
They didn't know that in front of Shi Tian's thousand-year cultivation, unless everyone stops breathing and becomes a dead person, they can hide it from Shi Tian. The hidden arts and camouflage uniforms in modern troops have no effect on Shi Tian at all.
