At that moment, the explosion of fire made the darkened world look like daylight, and air waves visible to the naked eye swept around.
When the rising mushroom flame cloud dissipated, in the ruins, only a burning wreckage told everything.
There is no real winner in this battle, it is just a war of attrition.
"Retreat..."
In the bridge command room of the "Global Overlord" No. 1 boat, Li Meng gave the order to retreat.
Sitting on the command chair, Li Meng looked at the battlefield on the holographic screen in silence.
After this battle, it will probably take a lot of time for Black Flag City to make a comeback.
One frigate crashed, and the rest of the frigates also suffered varying degrees of damage. The only transport ship was also seriously damaged, with all defensive weapons destroyed and the protective panels of multiple harbors torn apart.
Following Li Meng's order, above the clouds, the fleet began to evacuate, descending vertically on the spot.
The battlefield was only a few hundred meters away from the extreme temperature layer. Soon, while being chased by the red-winged lizards, the fleet approached the extreme temperature layer and slowly submerged into it.
There was a sudden disturbance in the clouds, and the huge fleet disappeared without a trace.
As the fleet retreated into the extreme temperature layer, the Sky-Eye fighter jets entangled with the Red Winged Lizards on the battlefield gave up on the enemy in front of them, turned around, and fell towards the extreme temperature layer, rushing into the extreme temperature layer like raindrops.
A large number of red-winged lizards followed closely and rushed into the extreme temperature layer, trying to pursue them.
But in the extreme temperature layer, the red-winged lizard quickly lost its target.
Alien beasts do not have the ability to sense heat. In the extreme temperature layer where the visibility is zero, it is like losing their eyes. They can only use hearing to confirm the location of the enemy. However, the red-winged lizard did not stay in the extreme temperature layer for a long time.
Ability, soon, in the extreme temperature layer, the red-winged lizard lost its target.
Half an hour later, north of Black Flag City, more than 70 kilometers away in the sky, as the clouds were disturbed, a huge airship slowly broke out of the extreme temperature layer and arrived above the clouds.
This is not the end yet. In the clouds behind it, the clouds were disturbed in many places, and aerial battleships rushed out of the clouds and entered the sea of clouds.
Compared with the fleet that came, the fleet that returned was extremely miserable. There were traces of smoke and war on the hull, and the leaking secondary guns were almost completely destroyed, as if they were torn apart by something sharp.
Even the main gun of the "Avenger" class frigate has multiple barrel deformations, which shows the power of the Red Winged Lizard.
"This battle lasted for a total of 267 minutes, and a total of 23,874 Red-Winged Lizards were eliminated. We lost 1,778 first-generation Sky-Eye fighter jets, 697 second-generation Sky-Eye fighter jets, and one Avenger-class frigate."
The battle damage ratio of the Sky Eye fighter was not bad, but the crash of an "Avenger" class frigate made Li Meng very distressed.
There are not many warships in Black Flag City at the moment, so losing a frigate in the first dispatch was really a bad start.
Li Meng asked: "How long will it take to repair the damaged battleship? I don't want to give the red beasts too much time to recover. With the reproduction speed of alien beasts, they can recover quickly."
No. 1: "Repair is not difficult. It only takes three days to repair the damaged warship."
Hearing this, Li Meng breathed a sigh of relief. Three days was fine. No matter how fast the beasts reproduce, three days couldn't do anything.
As long as they are consumed again and again, after the "Hammer of God" space-based weapons are deployed, they can launch a full-scale attack on the red beast clan in Hefei City.
Time passed quickly, and before I knew it, it was already noon.
In the arena of Black Flag City, four games were held in one morning. When the commentator announced the intermission, the citizens of Black Flag City in the audience were reluctant to leave for a long time and ate the food they had brought with them on the spot.
The living facilities in the arena are very complete. There are supermarkets, restaurants, and many places to eat.
In a restaurant called "Le Chi", Li Meng took Yang Xiuling, Chen Beier and Zhao Hongwen into the restaurant.
This restaurant is not small, and the space is quite ample. There are large tables, middle tables, and small tables, which can accommodate twelve, six, and two people respectively.
Li Meng, Chen Beier, Yang Xiuling, Wei Qiunan, Zhao Hongwen, Zhao Yuyan and Zhao Yufang, a total of six people.
"Let's go to the upper box. It's too noisy here."
Today's arena brings together 80% of the population of Black Flag City, so the business of this restaurant is naturally good.
The hall was buzzing with people, and all the tables that could be seen were filled with people.
Naturally, everyone would not object to Wei Qiunan's words and walked towards the second floor.
Following the stairs, everyone entered the second floor.
As soon as we entered the second floor, the noise downstairs suddenly disappeared, and the long corridor was relatively peaceful.
"Hello, who are you?"
There was a waiter waiting at the top of the stairs. Seeing Li Meng and his party coming up, she smiled slightly, put her hands on her lower abdomen, and asked.
She was wearing a red and black uniform, with a pair of flesh-colored stockings legs under her hip-covering skirt.
Although her appearance is relatively delicate and cannot be called beautiful, she does have a certain temperament in her clothes.
Li Meng, who was walking at the front, said: "Six!"
She smiled slightly, stepped aside to get out of the way, and said: "This way, please..."
With that said, she led the way, while Li Meng and his party followed her.
Following the waiter, the group entered a private room.
The space in the private room is quite ample, giving people a very spacious feeling.
At the dining table, everyone took their seats one by one.
After that, the waiter pours tea and takes orders...
"What do you want to eat?"
Holding the menu in his hand, Li Meng asked everyone at the table.
Everyone looked at me and I looked at you. Wei Qiunan, who was sitting next to Li Meng, smiled and said, "Eat whatever you want."
Without saying anything else, Li Meng handed the menu to Wei Qiunan and said, "You order it. We men can eat anything, but you women have to be more particular."
In response to Li Meng's words, Wei Qiunan rolled his eyes at Li Meng and had no choice but to pick up the menu and order.
The six people at the dinner table are really a mixture of yin and yang. Among the six people, there are only two men, Li Meng and Zhao Hongwen.
However, for men, this scene is naturally beautiful.
Whether it is the two sisters Zhao Yuyan, Yang Xiuling, or the little girl Chen Beier, they are all of top quality. Even if men don't like to be surrounded by women, after all, opposites attract each other, which is the instinct of intelligent creatures.
After ordering the food, everyone started chatting.
"Captain, after the mecha competition, when will we go out again?"
This is something that Zhao Hongwen cares about, and it is also something that everyone here wants to know.
The mission of the last outing was completed perfectly, and the major forces of the mountain city residents were found one by one.
Although he has not come into contact with the major forces of the mountain city people, Zhao Hongwen has a feeling that the next mission he will go out must be related to those mountain city people.
But whether this is the case is not something Zhao Hongwen can know.
