I Became an Academy Attack Helicopter - I Became an Academy Attack Helicopter chapter 149

149 – Chapter 45. Sandstorm – 4

– 150 –

Even in the desert, the weather was good and the sea was not far, so there was no inconvenience in moving.

We were advancing from a position overlooking the sea.

If you follow the beach without thinking, you will come to a port town, but since it was a very exposed and easily surrounded terrain, we decided to go a little further away.

The attack helicopter unit took the lead role in the front so that the ground forces could move safely.

Half a day to see the horizon where the blue sky and the reddish desert form a clear boundary, and fly slowly in line with other units.

“I didn’t know it would be so difficult to go just by looking at a paper map.”

However, I also learned the Dokdo method in my freshman year at the military academy, but I almost forgot it in a few years.

“It would be perfect if we could get directions with only reconnaissance magic. Since there is no geographic information, we have to rely a lot on paper maps.”

“You’ve come all the way here safely. It won’t be a big deal to the city.”

「Sierra 6. That statement is a bit dangerous. If you do say that…….”

Jeing- Jiing-

“… Because this is it.”

Whether the remarks of one of my friends from the military academy became a source of controversy, reconnaissance magic was detected against us.

After hearing the detection system in use on the reconnaissance helicopter roar, we contacted the ground forces and formed a line.

“Sierra 0. Distance and direction.”

“Analysis is in progress.”

During the analysis in the reconnaissance helicopter, I activated the function of the integrated helmet and scanned the surroundings.

I could feel the flow of magic from far inland.

“As a result of comparing it with the information of the Resistance, it is most likely the magic of the Kanbal Kingdom. The location was also specified, but they did a great job.”

When I checked the coordinates shared by the reconnaissance helicopter, there were dense red dots on the map.

It was far enough to be observed with the naked eye, but this number of enemies was not seen.

“The camouflage for blindfolding is thorough.”

The piles were scattered so extensively that it was hard to tell which one was real.

“It may be a trap, but if you leave it as it is, your path will be exposed to enemies.”

“Sierra 1. I will clear the target and come.”

“Copy…. …. Permission has been lost. With Sierra 2 and 3, we will kill the spies and return.”

“Rager. Let’s go.”

We got out of the helicopter squadron and flew quickly towards our destination in a triangle-shaped formation.

“It must have been a dummy.”

When I came to the place where the signal was, there was still nothing.

Have you already run away?

“Look at the front over there.”

「Is it a cliff?」

Beyond the desert area that looked like a barren field, a long cliff appeared where it started.

The direction we flew from was the top of the cliff, but due to the indistinguishable color of the desert, we didn’t recognize the topography that swung down until we got closer.

“The enemy is expected to be located at the bottom of the cliff.”

“I’ll go first.”

“Copy. I will cover you.”

I didn’t even go far beyond the cliff, but I could feel the blatant hostility beneath my feet.

“Check the magic line. Attack flies. Be careful.”

“Okay.”

The spirits were already closely monitoring below, so they knew exactly where the attack would come from.

When I swung my nose to the left, magic rained down on where I was just now.

It was a fairly threatening attack.

“Everyone, focus on the defense below.”

[[I see.]]

[[Larger!]]

I turned half a turn to avoid the continuous attack and faced the cliff.

“Oh… ….”

Almost the entire cliff was turned into a military facility.

The flags fluttering everywhere were clearly the flags of the Kanbal Kingdom.

Well. Even if it was in the eastern part of the kingdom, there was no way that the kingdom’s military base wouldn’t exist.

This may be a base large enough for the resistance to not be able to touch.

There were gun barrels in every hole dug everywhere, and soldiers who did not know whether they were human or demon were coming and going on the precarious wooden stepping stones and ladders.

“Enemy base found. Everything under the cliff is a base.”

“Copy. It seems that it will be difficult to deploy ground forces on the terrain. Is it possible to compete with only helicopter units?”

“It seems difficult to deal with helicopter units without damage, but… ….”

I pulled the lever strongly and raised the altitude.

“We can overcome most of them alone, so I will send you an autograph when the situation is settled to some extent.”

“…… Copy. If you need any help, please let me know immediately.”

“Rager.”

The enemy’s anti-aircraft guns inside the cliff do not have an attack angle even if they raise their altitude a little.

There was a footing in front of each hole, but as a few came out to intercept me, they got hit by a magic bullet chain gun and fell down the cliff as beehives.

There was a confrontation where each other could not attack each other.

I relaxed and looked around.

The sky in the clean desert without a sandstorm was exceptionally blue.

The vast wind and the energy of fire felt from all directions.

Perhaps the desert is the best place for my attributes.

[[Preparation is complete]]

At the same time as the youngest spirit’s words, the magic stone of the wind for arming filled with magic and started to emit a soft light.

[[We’re ready, too.]]

The fire spirit who was in charge of arming filled the fire mana stone with magical power.

Standard armaments such as Hellfire, Sidewinder, and Brimstone were effective and powerful, but they had limitations.

In the end, there are limitations in the series of processes in which a weapon processed using magic receives magic and outputs attack magic.

It meant that no matter how strong the magical power was, it was not completely converted into destructive power.

So I made various variations such as tracking, enhancing explosive power, maximizing range, but I couldn’t reach the power of the primordial element.

Until now, my strength was weak, so I relied on arming a lot, but the ‘me’ of the past was not like that.

The strength I have now doesn’t drop much compared to then.

Re-accumulated experience, auxiliary manastones, and new subordinate spirits.

And above all, friends who were not there in the past.

In the past, I had many comrades, but the only ones that could be called friends were humanoid spirits like me.

But now, I have a lot of friends who go to the same school and fight the battlefield with me.

You might ask, what does that have to do with individual skill, but…….

“Many enemies appear on the ground under the cliff. Erif, be careful.”

“We’ll cover it. Concentrate on the cliff.”

“I beg you.”

My friends read my thoughts before I speak and move first.

I’ve been working with each other for the past few years, so naturally, it’s okay to say that having a lot of friends is my ability, as they naturally become each other’s limbs and show off their best skills.

Leaving the battlefield with friends for a while, I closed my eyes and focused.

After collecting the energy of wind and fire flowing through the body and dividing it on both wings, I narrowly opened my eyes and looked at the target.

The inside of the cliff defense base will have a structure like an anthill.

Then, you need to find a hole as wide as possible for the current attack to work well.

When we quickly dropped the altitude, an attack flew as if we had been waiting.

I quickly scanned the cliff and picked out the two largest holes.

It was close to both ends of the cliff.

The shield continued to be cut due to the magic rain.

“Prepare for a mirage.”

[[Larger.]]

A drone was quietly ejected while holding a magic stone engraved with the Sanctuary of the Mirage.

When the drone that was attached to the main body quickly flew to the side while spreading the mirage sanctuary, a ghost that looked just like my main body followed the drone.

At the same time, the magic of cognitive impairment was applied, and the magic that was pouring on me began to gradually deflect sideways.

After aiming at the target leisurely, I fired two attacks while turning the nose half a turn.

The wind loaded with fire, and the wind-filled fire flew towards the jaws of the wide-open cliff.

It was fired with a time difference, but perhaps because of the distance, the two fireballs hit the target at the same time.

Gugu-!

The ground shook like an earthquake.

Starting with the enemy soldiers who were sticking out and falling down the cliff, the entire cliff base began to shake.

Fire and wind entered two entrances and came out through dozens of exits.

The flames that rose one after another from both ends reached the center.

I don’t want to imagine what it’s like inside the cave.

Each fireball that fell down the cliff contained life until a few seconds ago.

It was a scene that might have suffered trauma if I were an ordinary human.

But, a half-human, half-spirit born for war, I turned on the communicator without any particular feeling.

“The target has been removed. Please clean up.”

「Confirm. Subsequent units will sortie.”

Looking at the helicopters flying from afar, I leaned against the backrest.

The power is great, but it was also a flaw to be too tired.

It’s still better to attack armed with weapons.

It is also the most efficient.

“Erif. What was that attack just now?”

“My special move.”

“It’s terrifying. How could that wide base collapse in one shot?”

“It’s because the structure is unique. If it had been a base on a flat ground, it wouldn’t have been like that.”

The friends who followed me also captured a considerable number of enemies.

After tidying up for a while, we headed towards our destination again.

After arriving at the port city the next day, we learned that the fortress we had just destroyed was a trouble for the Resistance.

“A great man has come and done a great job.”

For a port city, the outskirts of the city are small and quiet.

The brown-skinned elf sitting in front of me clicked his tongue when he heard that we had knocked down the kingdom’s cliff base.

“I will take it as a compliment.”

“I hope to see with your own eyes your amazing fighting skills.”

“I will see you soon.”

I shook hands with the elf.

It was the first meeting with the leader of the Kanbal Resistance, Jesker.
