Super War God in the City-Chapter 608: Sima’s Challenge!
With Ling Fan's shout, the people inside the helicopter were momentarily unable to react.
"Who is Ling Beiming? Does anyone recognize him?" the person previously shouting in the helicopter asked bewilderingly through the headset.
He genuinely didn't know who Ling Beiming was, but judging by the aura of the guy below, it seemed like Ling Beiming was quite a big deal!
The commanding officer inside the helicopter, after being stunned for a long while, suddenly snapped back to reality and widened his eyes as he looked down below.
"What? Ling... Ling Beiming?" His brain reeled with dizziness.
The name Ling Beiming was not unfamiliar to members of the Heaven Army who had participated in the Battle to Slay the gods two years prior.
In fact, most people in the entire team were familiar with the name Ling Beiming.
"Dammit, record his image immediately and send it back to base, ask for instructions from higher up!" the commanding officer roared into the headset.
At this moment, his heart was pounding so hard it felt it might burst out.
Not just him, but other members in the helicopter who knew of Ling Beiming were also sweating nervously.
For a moment, these people were somewhat at a loss and dared not fire at the person below.
"Who is Ling Beiming, can someone fill me in!" a confused new member demanded a briefing in the headset.
Someone took a deep breath and replied, "The founder of Hell Idlers, War Emperor Beiming, haven't you heard of him?"
"Hiss~"
With this statement, a chorus of gasps echoed through the headsets.
"What? He..." Suddenly, many were looking down at the young man facing the wind with a proud expression, their faces filled with shock.
"Ling Beiming, wasn't he supposed to have died two years ago?" someone said sheepishly.
This was the question in everyone's mind, and the reason for their stunned confusion. They all looked at the figure below as if they had seen a ghost.
It wasn't long before the information was sent back to the base, and the base relayed the information to Kuno Yukki.
"What the hell, it's this guy, the one claiming to be Ling Beiming!" Kuno Yukki inhaled sharply, pointing at the projected information frustratedly.
Sima Tianhao stood up abruptly. The surveillance information from the Martial Alliance he had seen before was not very clear, and there were some slight differences in the behavior and expressions from his memory.
But the face with a wicked smile now before him, and the unruly demeanor, caused his pupils to constrict.
"Order the front-line Heaven Army to open fire on him, kill him at all costs!" Sima Tianhao declared through gritted teeth, enunciating every word.
"Are you sure it's him?" Kuno Yukki asked gravely.
"Eighty percent sure!" Sima Tianhao replied.
Immediately, Kuno Yukki hurriedly picked up the phone to give the order to fire with full force.
The Heaven Army, essentially acting as a national defense force, is a group of Martial Artists equipped with modern high-tech weaponry, established by various countries, similar to the Huaxia Canglong Army, a special military unit.
Their purpose is to protect the interests of their own countries and resist external dark forces, usually in coordination with their respective national Martial Alliances.
Over Yinghe Village in the night sky of Amaterasu Mountain.
The commanding officer in the helicopter received the command from the base to open fire with full force and take down the person claiming to be Ling Beiming while sending live footage.
The commander took a deep breath and ordered solemnly, "Attention all units, open fire with full force on the person below who claims to be Ling Beiming!"
As his order was given, the armed helicopter at the forefront immediately swiveled its machine gun, proceeding to unleash a mad barrage of gunfire at Ling Fan.
The machine guns mounted on this armed helicopter were loaded with armor-piercing bullets, far beyond the capabilities of ordinary submachine guns and sniper rifles.
Even a martial artist at the Grandmaster Realm would be riddled with holes if they took a hit, and even Ling Fan would not dare let these bullets hit him easily.
"Swoosh~"
Ling Fan's figure flashed, dodging the machine gun fire from the helicopter while hastily gathering the hand grenades the Dragon Gate group had discarded upon retreat.
"Swoosh~"
Ling Fan threw a grenade with the pin pulled forcefully toward the nearest helicopter, 'Boom!' the grenade accurately blasted through the glass and fell into the cockpit.
"Boom!"
A thunderous roar erupted as the helicopter burst into a ball of fire and plummeted downward.
Truth be told, if this had been any typical martial artist, they would have had no choice but to flee in the face of these armed helicopters.
But Official Ling was different; this guy was a super martial artist tainted by modern high technology.
So, whether it was a martial arts powerhouse or the armed forces of various nations, facing Ling Fan was a headache.
Take the previous encounter with Yin Huang as an example. Against a regular fighter, it would have taken thirty to fifty rounds to settle, but in Official Ling's hands, a single shell sufficed to crush Yin Huang's momentum.
"Fire, fire, surround and fire!" the commander roared into his headset from the helicopter.
Following the commander's roar, the supporting helicopters swiftly formed an encirclement and blanketed Ling Fan with a barrage of firepower from the middle.
Ling Fan's eyes grew cold as he flung four or five grenades in quick succession, then unleashed Exotic Fire that melted a deep pit in the ground, into which he burrowed.
This thing was a godsend for tunneling at critical moments. Ling Fan moved underground as the grenades he previously threw flipped over three more helicopters.
"Damn it!" the commander's face turned red with anger, roaring in frustration inside the cockpit.
In just this short span of time, four helicopters had been shot down, and the target had disappeared from view.
A fleet of armed helicopters hovered in the low sky, firing their weapons in random bursts.
Yao Yue was hidden at a far distance, observing covertly, not joining the fray.
"Everyone, stay alert. If the target reappears, the units armed with air-to-ground missiles are to fire immediately and blast the target into the sky!" the commander regained some composure and hastily issued the order.
At that moment, Ling Fan had traveled a considerable distance underground and suddenly burst forth from another end, employing the same tactics as before.
Within a kilometer, with his strength and skill, if not a hundred percent accuracy, he had more than a ninety percent chance to take down these machines.
After tossing a few more grenades and flipping several helicopters, the enemy immediately launched missiles and began a blanket bombardment.
"Damn it, I hate this thing the most!" Ling Fan cursed as his figure flashed, disappearing into the ground once again.
Ling Fan continued his stealth attacks, coming and going several times, until half of the helicopters had been brought down from the sky.
The commander watched as the number of armed helicopters dwindled, feeling his mental state crumble.
"Retreat, retreat, gain altitude, damn it!" The commander's chest heaved wildly, almost spitting blood.
He realized that engaging with Ling Beiming below was simply torturous, like punching cotton—unable to land a single hit on the opponent.

After inquiring about the situation, he found out that everyone was running low on ammunition.
"Damn it, report back to the base!" the commander said gloomily.
At this moment, Ling Fan stood on the ground, flipping the middle finger at the remaining helicopters with a look of disdain.
Ling Fan's gesture was seen by everyone in the helicopters, awakening a wave of grinding teeth in impotent rage.
In Kuno Ichiro's study, several people watched the projected images in a suppressed and silent atmosphere.
"Let them come back, and simultaneously relay a message to him; we will have our decisive battle at the Summit of the Snow Country Iron Tower before noon tomorrow!" Sima Tianhao said in a deep voice.
