The two captains on board the DH-555 realized the danger. Shi Keli took the time to rush into the atmosphere, but he was now in a low-Earth orbit of 180 kilometers. To return, he needed to control the speed and angle and operate within the allowed range.
It can't really look like a meteorite.
Qiu Weixin lay down on the side porthole of the cockpit and looked to the side away from the earth. Sure enough, he found that dozens of bright spots were approaching them, not directly facing them, but at a certain angle.
"I saw them! There were dozens of them..."
Shi Keli didn't dare to look distractedly and just yelled: "Is it an extraterrestrial spaceship? It has only been quiet for more than a year and less than two years, and they are making a comeback?"
Qiu Weixin stared at those bright spots, "I don't know! I still can't see their shapes clearly! It seems that there was never such a large fleet when the extraterrestrial spaceships were roaming the sky before, right? Why have they changed their tactics now?
Oh, wait, I saw it clearly! It’s not an extraterrestrial spacecraft! It’s more like a group of bugs, dragonfly-like bugs, with an X-shaped wing layout!
I don’t know if this is a new model of extraterrestrial civilization? Or, is it another extraterrestrial race?”
Shi Keli involuntarily accelerated his descent, trying to maintain balance at the limit. He didn't know the intentions of these so-called dragonflies. He had no other choice but to go back immediately.
"Have they discovered us? Do they have any intention of pursuing us?"
Qiu Weixin stared intently, "Not yet! They just formed a dense formation. If the direction does not change, they will pass a thousand kilometers away from the rear of our aircraft... Oh no, they are coming! Two Dragonfly spacecraft left the ship
The team is flying towards us! Yes, I’m sure their target is us!”
Shi Kexin was extremely anxious, but he found that he could do nothing more! This was an aerospace passenger plane for commercial purposes. It did not have any attack means, not even a rear-view radar, so he was completely confused about the relative positions of the two sides.
"What are they here for?"
Qiu Weixin said, "I don't know! I'm definitely not here to say good afternoon! Captain, you have to descend quickly. Our only chance is in the atmosphere, where we are really a target!"
Shi Keli, "I'm working hard! I can't turn into a stone! Throw yourself to death before they really express their attitude! Contact the ground and see what they can do!"
Qiu Weixin shouted in the channel: "East Pacific Aviation Control, this is DH-555, we are bitten by two extraterrestrial spacecraft and cannot get rid of it! We don't know their intentions yet, but we hope to get support!"
An energy pillar passed in front of the nose of the plane, and Qiu Weixin exclaimed, "They fired! They want to shoot us down! Call for support, we can't hold on for long!"
Ground air traffic control, "Hold on, DH-555! The combat spaceship has taken off, you only need to hold on for a few minutes and return to the atmosphere quickly!"
The height of DH-555 was falling rapidly. In fact, the speed of descent had exceeded the limit of the regulations, but Shi Keli had no other choice. He had no conditions to take his time, he would either fall or be shot down!
He chose the former, because at least the plane could parachute after losing control!
This was a painful decision. He no longer expected to land safely. Parachuting was a shame for a space pilot. It meant that the pilot had given up the struggle. He didn't like it, but if he was hit, it wouldn't matter.
.
In just a few minutes, the altitude of the aerospace passenger plane has dropped from 180 kilometers to less than 80 kilometers, but it can no longer descend at such a high speed and must slow down, otherwise the plane will burn into a big fireball in the atmosphere without firing from an extraterrestrial spacecraft!
Slowing down while the enemy is chasing him, there is nothing he can do about such a contradictory operation happening here, but he has no other choice!
Shi Keli tried his best to keep the plane on an irregular flight path. He said that the snake maneuver was a bit exaggerated. He was not a professional combat spacecraft pilot, and the aerospace airliner was not a combat spacecraft. The huge and heavy body did not support it.
It does too complex actions.
The energy beam streaked across both sides of the aircraft. It was difficult to hit when the speed was high, but when DH-555 had to slow down, luck finally abandoned them. They felt the plane shake, and no one knew where it was hit!
Qiu Weixin quickly checked the system, but the alarm was ringing randomly, and for a while he couldn't tell where the specific damage was. He turned on the cockpit intercom.
"Cabin, when you look out the porthole, can you see the location where it was hit?"
This possibility is not very likely. In fact, it is difficult to see the entire body of the aircraft from the porthole window of the cabin. The two wings are okay.
The crew chief's voice said, "Engine No. 3 was hit and is now emitting black smoke!"
"Sure?"
"Sure! But I can't guarantee that other places will be intact!"
"We can't land normally!" Qiu Weixin shouted loudly! "We can only parachute, there is no other way!"
They had never tried to re-enter the atmosphere with three engines, even if it seemed possible in theory according to the regulations? Under such circumstances, he was unable to assess the damage to engine No. 3. Would it affect other aspects?
Is the oil line broken? Is the control cable normal? The No. 3 engine is the one on the right wing closer to the fuselage. Both the oil line and the cable may affect the No. 4 engine on the outside.
So, I have no choice but to parachute!
Qiu Weixin shouted to the channel in a nervous state, "Engine No. 3 was hit! We are not sure how big the impact will be yet! If support is not available yet, you can prepare to collect our bodies!"
He has reason to be angry! This must be a type of extraterrestrial spacecraft. Under normal circumstances, they should have been warned in advance, instead of notifying them until they were close at hand! How can commercial aerospace planes struggle in the face of combat spacecraft?
room for?
What are those satellites and combat spacecraft used for? How could such a large group of spacecraft be missed?
Just when he was hysterical, six black spots in the direction of the earth were approaching quickly. Seeing the familiar triangular pyramid shape and red logo, Qiu Weixin finally let out a sigh of relief.
The human spaceship finally caught up!
Energy pillars were flying, and a battle broke out behind him, but Qiu Weixin couldn't care about it for the time being. He suddenly realized that it seemed that the captain hadn't spoken for a while?
Shi Keli is not a boring gourd, why didn't he speak?
When Qiu Weixin finally took his eyes off the extraterrestrial spaceship and looked at his captain, he discovered that Captain Shi Keli's head was drooping on his chest, and there was an unobvious small hole on the seat. That was the source of energy.
What remains after beam breakdown.
There was no blood on the captain's body. This is also the characteristic of energy beam killing. After being penetrated and burned at high temperature, it will not be so bloody!
He lost his captain immediately after waiting for support. Is this luck or misfortune?
"East Pacific Aviation Control, the captain was shot and he's gone!"
