Ultra: Dragon Sword Journey

On this beautiful, sunny day, Zhao Ming and Da Gu were chatting leisurely in the spacious and bright corridor outside the command room. The warm sunlight fell on them, reflecting their relaxed and happy expressions.

Their conversation drifted back to the time they spent in the logistics and transportation department.

Those past events full of joy and fun kept flashing in their minds like vivid movie scenes, and every detail was so clear, as if it happened yesterday.

When they talked about those interesting moments that still lingered in their memories, they couldn't help but smile at each other, their hearts filled with nostalgia and longing for the good old days. That feeling was like savoring a glass of aged wine, mellow and sweet, leaving one with an endless aftertaste.

However, at this moment, a clear and pleasant voice suddenly broke the silence - the intelligent voice assistant in the base issued a prompt: "TPC One is about to take off from cabin 8. Please confirm the change of flight plan immediately."

Upon hearing this news, Da Gu was stunned at first, then a look of surprise appeared on his face. He said in surprise: "TPC No. 1? Isn't that the director's private plane?"

Zhao Ming on the side nodded, indicating that he agreed with Dagu's statement, and pointed to a group of people who were about to come down.

Looking in the direction Zhao Ming pointed, Dagu instantly saw Director Sawai walking in front of the crowd.

He was so excited that he quickly reached out and grabbed Zhao Ming beside him. Then he waved vigorously at Ze Jing and shouted loudly: "Director!"

At this moment, Ze Jing also raised his head, and his eyes happened to meet those of Da Gu and Zhao Ming. Seeing them, Ze Jing immediately smiled warmly and waved his arm in response to their greetings.

At this moment, the female assistant standing next to the director looked at Dagu as if she suddenly thought of something. She opened her lips and said, "He is neither a scientist nor from the Defense Forces. Right?" There was a hint of doubt and questioning in her words.

Hearing this, the director responded, "Is there any problem?" He was well aware that recruiting Dagu into the Victory Team in a special way would inevitably cause some people to talk about it.

"Actually, he..." Director Sawai seemed to want to explain something further when he inadvertently glanced at the watch on his wrist.

His face changed instantly and he shouted anxiously: "Oh no! There is not much time left, the flight is about to take off!" Before he finished speaking, the group rushed towards the hangar like an arrow.

Meanwhile, in the hallway above, Zhao Ming was winking at Dagu with a sly smile on his face. He lowered his voice and said, "Hey, Dagu, did you hear what that female assistant just said? She's clearly trying to say that you got into the Victory Team through connections."

Dagu naturally heard these words carefully. He glared at Zhao Ming fiercely and retorted with a hint of annoyance: "Hey! Can you please stop teasing me about this all the time?

I made it into the Victory Team based on my real abilities, okay?!" Obviously, Dagu was very upset to have his so-called "inside story" exposed in public.

Facing Dagu's protest, Zhao Ming didn't care at all. Instead, he continued with a playful smile: "I believe you have the ability!

However, I think you still need to work harder and prove yourself to everyone with practical actions." As he spoke, he reached out and gently patted Dagu's shoulder to express his encouragement.

"Humph, of course I know!" Dagu crossed his arms across his chest, looking disapproving.

"Do you really know..." Zhao Ming deliberately dragged out his tone, like a cunning fox, and then continued, "Do you still remember how many times you and Xincheng, those two idiots, have crashed planes? I heard from the captain that the two of you are already on the hangar maintenance team's blacklist!"

"Um... I think this issue can be put aside for now and left for next time." A hint of embarrassment appeared on Dagu's face, as if someone had touched a sore spot.

Seeing this, Zhao Ming smiled slightly and stopped talking. The two of them parted unhappily.

However, just one hour later, TPC-1, which Director Sawai was on, lost contact without any warning.

The Victory Team did not dare to delay for a moment and hurriedly dispatched two ace pilots, Xincheng and Lina, to fly the Feiyan II and launch the search mission like an arrow from a bow.

"We're almost at the point where TPC-1 lost contact!" Lina's voice rang out. Her hands danced on the joystick like nimble butterflies, and Feiyan-2 soared like a nimble eagle, gliding close to the surface of the sea. Her expert flying skills were on full display at this moment.

"Oh... really, even if he is the director, he should at least let me know where he is flying to!" Xincheng touched his head, muttering and complaining.

"Captain Xincheng, I heard you. Please don't complain or sigh during the mission!" Iruma Hui's tone was serious and firm, like a sharp sword, piercing Xincheng's heart through the communicator.

"Yes!" Xincheng was shocked as if he had been electrocuted when he heard the captain's words. He instantly became energetic and continued to carry out the search mission with Lina.

"Captain, do you also have no idea where the director is?" Zong Fang asked with his arms crossed, expressionless.

Iruma Hui frowned and replied, "I just heard that he was going to attend a top-secret meeting. As for the rest, I don't know much!"

After a painstaking search, Ye Rui finally determined the location where the director's special plane had lost contact, and there were only the Cremos Islands in that area.

"The Cremos Islands?" Iruma Hui murmured softly, as if a flash of lightning passed through her mind, as if she had thought of something.

"What's wrong?" Seeing this, Zong Fang asked hurriedly.

"Back then, when the defense forces moved to the Earth Peace United Army, the heads of state of various countries held a summit meeting at the secret base on the southern island." When Nori mentioned the name of this place, an ominous premonition suddenly surged in his heart, as if a dark cloud was hanging over him.

"Captain, let me join the search operation!" Dagu stepped forward and volunteered. His intuition was like a sharp hound, and he smelled the strangeness behind this matter.

After a moment's thought, Iruma said, "Let's wait for news on Unit 2!"

Dagu sighed helplessly. At this moment, Lina's exclamation suddenly came from the communication.

"Ah... that red aurora australis!" The Feiyan-2 was like a trapped bird. When it approached the Cremos Islands, it was tightly bound by a ball of red laser and trapped in the air, shaking and unable to move.

"Team members of Xincheng! Please help pull down the joystick!" Lina's shout was like a sharp sword, piercing the tense atmosphere.

Xincheng quickly unbuckled his seat belt and struggled with her to control the joystick.

"Damn it...it seems to have no effect!" Xincheng's voice was like thunder.

"It's not enough to rely on brute force alone, we need to use the joystick to lock it accurately!" Lina said decisively.

"Okay!" Xincheng quickly came to the engine control lever in the back row like an arrow, and pushed it with all his strength. Three streams of white air like white dragons suddenly spurted out from the bottom of the No. 2 machine, breaking free from the red cage.

Lina reported with relief: "Captain, we have successfully escaped the control of the Southern Lights."

Seeing this thrilling scene, everyone in the command room breathed a sigh of relief.

"Captain, I have successfully hacked into the satellite news network sent from the Cremos Islands." Nori, the young computer genius, demonstrated his unparalleled superb skills.

The image of Director Sawai immediately appeared on the main screen. He was like an iceberg, sitting under a wall with the TPC logo, with a blank expression on his face, completely devoid of his usual gentle smile like a spring breeze.

"The Cremos Islands have officially declared themselves an independent nation this morning. I am Sawai, the president of this nation!

We will transform the Earth Peace Coalition (TPC) into one of the administrative organs of a unified world state, with the Cremos Islands as its capital. Furthermore, anyone who trespasses into our airspace without authorization will be shot dead."

"Director? No, this is definitely not a director." Dagu's voice was as loud as a bell, awakening the mind. As an experienced veteran magician, how could he be fooled by such a clumsy disguise.
