Chapter 864 - 457: God-Slaying Eagle, Ancient Ruins
In front of the whole world, Yang Fan unleashed a full set of Soul Stealer Three Whips and literally beat a demon to death.
This incident was like a fuse, instantly triggering a major war.
In the border region between the Azik Alliance and the Carmenia Federation, dense howling suddenly erupted in the sky.
It was the emergency sortie of Carmenia Air Force’s fully stealth fighter group.
After the Superpower Era arrived, all countries discovered large quantities of supernatural materials. Fighter jets moved from the old radar-stealth era into the full-stealth era.
That is, radar stealth plus optical stealth.
But in terms of performance, Great Xia’s fully stealth fighters are significantly ahead of those of other countries on Canglan Star.
Careful observation at this moment shows that several kilometers up, some faintly visible transparent air masses are moving rapidly.
This is precisely the biggest current difficulty of optical stealth.
At low speed, achieving optical stealth isn’t hard; any country with some strength in the Supernatural Domain can basically do it.
At high speed—say subsonic above 250 meters per second, and supersonic—achieving perfect optical stealth is extremely difficult.
Inside one of the fully stealth fighters.
In the holographic helmet worn by Alberto, the Commander’s order sounded: "According to reliable intel, the Great Xia Spirit Crow has appeared in Monclo City, so our mission is—hunt down Spirit Crow!"
The Commander paused, his tone turning colder and more cutting: "High command has said, as long as we can kill the Great Xia Spirit Crow, even if we wipe out all of Monclo City and slaughter every civilian there, it doesn’t matter!"
Alberto immediately responded, "Understood!"
This elite pilot promptly asked a question: "Boss, do we actually have a chance to take out that damned Great Xia Spirit Crow?"
There was a faint red glow in Alberto’s eyes, and strange patterns could be vaguely seen on his facial skin—odd traits that set him apart from ordinary people.
The Commander said in a deep voice, "Of course we have a chance!"
He continued, "The Great Xia People think all of Canglan Star will be theirs to rule from now on. We’ll kill the Great Xia Spirit Crow and prove with facts that those yellow-skinned dogs are still far from dominating the world!"
Alberto immediately flattered the Commander shamelessly: "Boss, I like that line."
The guy asked a second question: "If we take out the Great Xia Spirit Crow, getting the Evolution Potion as a reward won’t be a problem, right?"
The Commander answered, "This war has given the Federation plenty of raw materials. I hear Evolution Potion output has jumped a lot. As long as you kill the Great Xia Spirit Crow, getting two Evolution Potions is no problem."
Delight instantly flashed across Alberto’s face: "That’s wonderful news."

Two hundred kilometers away.
An invisible Ghost Shadow was quietly cruising through the firmament.
"Beep! Beep!"
Soft electronic tones came from within. Electromagnetic waves streaked toward the boundless heavens at light speed, first reaching the Heaven Reaching Tower orbiting in the vastness of space, then relaying back to a military base in Eastern Great Xia.
A technical officer shouted, "Report! ’Night Roamer’ has detected a batch of Carmenians’ fully stealth fighters."
"The ’supernatural spectrum’ they’re emitting is a completely new band. High probability this is Carmenia’s new model fighter."
He paused and gave his assessment: "I believe they’re the ’Godslayer Eagle’ fighters from the intel."
As soon as he said that.
A faint ripple of commotion spread through the hall.
The so‑called ’Godslayer Eagle’ is the sixth‑generation fighter the Carmenians came up with.
Originally, Great Xia didn’t know much about Godslayer Eagle.
But ever since the Land of Freedom built a network over Carmenia’s airspace, many Carmenia engineers have been discussing related topics on it, intentionally or unintentionally leaking a large amount of intel this way.
Godslayer Eagle has two key specs: maximum altitude 35,000 meters, maximum cruise speed Mach 3.2.
Back before the Age of Calamity, Great Xia’s sixth‑gen fighter Xinlong already hit 30,000 meters and Mach 3 on those two figures.
In other words, the Godslayer Eagle developed by Carmenians using various supernatural materials isn’t much stronger than the first generation.
This is enough to prove that in fighter development, Carmenians are already unable to keep up with the Great Xia People’s pace.
Currently, Great Xia’s latest improved Xinlong, the Xinlong B, has pushed maximum altitude to a staggering 50,000 meters, already near the edge of space—within the near‑space envelope.
Xinlong B’s supersonic cruise speed directly breaks through Mach 5.
These two key specs completely crush Godslayer Eagle.
But one detail in the intel drew Great Xia People’s attention—Godslayer Eagle carries a missile with terrifying power, fitted with a warhead that wields immense Supernatural Power.
The technical officer added, "Carmenians only care about optical stealth and seem to lack proper research on supernatural spectrum. We’re way ahead of Carmenia in this field; their proud full stealth actually has no secrets at all before our Night Roamer."
Colonel Tao Yu, the officer in charge of this base, immediately asked, "How many fighters are in this batch?"
The technical officer quickly replied, "Twenty‑four in total—exactly one squadron."
Tao Yu was slightly surprised: "That many?"
The technical officer speculated, "This might well be all the Godslayer Eagles Carmenia has. This time they’ve thrown in everything."
Tao Yu nodded slightly, "Very likely. Carmenia’s industrial capacity is far below ours; they can’t possibly have many Godslayer Eagles."
The colonel’s expression then turned excited: "Mr. Spirit Crows’ ’lure the snake out of its hole’ strategy worked!"
