A Way Out of Desperation! A Risk Worth Taking

Chen Feng, who had been speeding across the sea on his sword for less than a nautical mile, immediately heard the roar of warships in the distance.

"So fast!"

Chen Feng was startled; how long had he been on the surface of the sea?

The other party had already spotted him.

Without hesitation, Chen Feng dove straight into the sea.

Almost the instant Chen Feng fell into the water, the shell struck the sea surface where Chen Feng had just been.

The powerful explosion sent up a huge splash of water.

Chen Feng was immediately spotted by the warship after he submerged into the sea.

The warships also launched their torpedoes.

Torpedoes are extremely fast, reaching speeds of 100 kilometers per hour even in seawater.

Chen Feng, who had just dived less than ten meters into the sea, immediately sensed danger.

Although he couldn't determine where the danger came from.

But his spiritual awareness was frantically warning him.

They did not choose to continue descending.

Chen Feng immediately took out the scroll and instantly entered the Painting Scroll World.

The instant Chen Feng's figure disappeared.

The torpedo also reached the location where Chen Feng had just been.

A muffled explosion echoed in the sea.

A dazzling light streaked across the seabed, illuminating the surrounding waters.

The massive shockwave from the explosion spread rapidly through the water, creating ripples that propagated outwards.

Inside the frigate, a soldier reported:

"Report, target location hit!"

The remaining soldiers on the warship became excited.

If a torpedo explodes at the target's location, then it has definitely hit the enemy.

This also means their mission is complete.

It's sufficient to simply send people to retrieve the target's body.

"No, it didn't hit the target!" Roberts said, staring at the monitoring screen.

Upon hearing this, everyone on the warship looked bewildered and turned to the monitoring screen.

However, the signal was no longer visible on the monitoring screen.

"General, the torpedo exploded at the target location. How could it have missed? And the target's signal has disappeared."

One of the soldiers said, puzzled.

Only when a torpedo pulverizes a target will it become undetectable by radar.

Roberts said coldly:

"Play back the sonar and radar detection footage, slowing it down tenfold."

Upon hearing this, a soldier nearby immediately began replaying the surveillance footage.

Everyone looked at the replay of the monitoring footage.

The playback clearly showed the target signal and the torpedo launch signal.

Just as the torpedo was about to approach the target signal source.

The target signal source suddenly disappeared from the monitoring screen.

The torpedo then exploded.

The soldiers stared at the monitoring screen in shock, their faces filled with disbelief.

"This"

The soldiers were stunned.

If it weren't for the replay, they wouldn't have noticed this at all.

The X wasn't destroyed by a torpedo.

It had already disappeared before the torpedo arrived.

Roberts stared at the monitoring screen, utterly shocked.

Supernatural power!

This was the first time he had ever encountered the supernatural!

Even if their radar couldn't detect the other party's disappearance, that alone was enough to excite Roberts.

Radar stealth technology has always been a technology that countries around the world are pursuing to break through.

Whoever possesses advanced stealth technology will gain an advantage in modern warfare.

The radar stealth technology of their Eagle Sauce Country B-2 stealth strategic bomber is currently among the most advanced in the world.

Even so, they continue to seek breakthroughs, because with technology, if you don't make breakthroughs, others may catch up with you.

This X, who possesses supernatural powers, was able to evade the radar of their escort ship.

This has already proven the other party's value.

"Continue patrolling this sea area; he will definitely reappear!"

Roberts was no longer planning to give up.

He reasoned that the opponent's invisibility tactic couldn't be maintained for long.

It reappears every now and then.

This also gave them the opportunity to seize the opportunity.

The Xingfeng Sect leads to a secret room.

Chen Feng returned here.

His face was very gloomy; he had almost been hit by that torpedo.

The torpedo was very intelligent; it would explode on its own once it reached the designated location, without ever needing to touch the target.

Moreover, the naval gunnery between them was completely different from that of the Binhai, and was significantly faster.

If he hadn't relied on the scroll to return to the Painting Scroll World within it in time...

Being hit by that torpedo would be certain death.

The Eagle Sauce Country is now making it clear that it will completely blockade this sea area.

They've even deployed top-tier military equipment like missile frigates.

It would be very difficult for him to leave.

But if he remains trapped in that sea area and doesn't return home, problems will definitely arise.

It's easy to talk to Li Xiaorou and Lin Wei; if he doesn't go back, they'll just assume their boss is out partying again.

But he had promised Liu Mu that he would provide the new metal in a few days.

If Liu Mu contacts him and learns that he is missing, it will be troublesome.

"Well."

Chen Feng sighed.

His only option now is to infiltrate the enemy's warship and escape.

This is a very risky move, but it's currently the only effective solution.

Although warships can use radar to track targets at sea.

But if he hides on the warship, the other side will have to send people to the warship to search for him.

But how to get onto the warship is also a problem.

Chen Feng immediately began to recover his Spiritual Qi; even if he went back, he had to maintain his best condition.

Just then...

The walkie-talkie on the table suddenly started making noise.

"Sect Leader, are you there?"

"Hello, hello, is the sect leader here?"

The voice came from Liu Qian.

To facilitate communication, Chen Feng also kept a walkie-talkie in his secret room.

"I'm here," Chen Feng replied.

He had told Liu Qian that he was in seclusion, and Liu Qian would never contact him unless it was something important.

"Sect Master, you finally contacted me!" Liu Qian's voice was filled with excitement.

"What happened?" Chen Feng asked.

Liu Qian immediately recounted the Ning Kingdom army's plan to conquer the northern border, as well as the news brought by Yue Yao.

After hearing Liu Qian's words, Chen Feng frowned even more deeply.

This is truly a case of misfortunes never coming singly.

The problems of the modern world haven't been resolved yet, and troubles have already arisen in the Painting Scroll World.

Three cultivators, one at the Ninth Layer of Qi Refining, and two at the eighth level of Qi Refining.

Dealing with Chen Feng is not a problem.

He couldn't possibly beat all three of them together.

In addition, there was the 600,000-strong Ningguo army.

Even if Xingfeng Sect ran out of ammunition, they probably still wouldn't be able to defeat this army of 600,000.

"Sect Master, I've already sent Wang Hu with men to the border, and I've also ordered Wu Xing to lead a raid on Ning Kingdom's capital."

Liu Qian explained his plan.

After listening to Liu Qian's plan, Chen Feng said:

"Your plan is indeed sound, very well done, but we can't win with just this."

Liu Qian's plan was indeed excellent, maximizing the advantages of the Xingfeng Sect.

But this plan can only delay things for a while.

"Sect Master, what should we do?" Liu Qian's sighing voice came from behind.

This was the only solution he could think of.

He couldn't think of any other way to save Xingfeng Sect.

"Just follow your plan, leave the rest to me," Chen Feng said.

Liu Qian, on the other end of the walkie-talkie, immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said:

"Yes, Sect Master!"

Chen Feng's words undoubtedly reassured Liu Qian a lot.

After ending the communication, Chen Feng sat cross-legged in the hyperbaric oxygen chamber and began to think.

To resolve the danger in this Painting Scroll World, he would need to break through to the Foundation Establishment immediately and then kill Xue Yangzi and the other two.

In this way, the Ningguo army would surrender without a fight.

But this is almost impossible to achieve in a short time.

Putting aside the fact that he doesn't have any Spiritual Qi liquid, he also doesn't have enough time.

Suddenly, Chen Feng seemed to have thought of something.

His eyes lit up immediately.

"It's a bit risky, but it's worth a try!"

Chen Feng came up with a solution.

The solution is to obtain some powerful artillery shells from the ammunition depots of Eagle Sauce Country warships.

He couldn't send the warship into the Painting Scroll World.

Let's not even talk about the fact that this thing itself weighs nearly five thousand tons.

It is over a hundred meters long, comparable to a building.

If he were to use a painting to send warships into the painting itself, he would probably be discovered before he even began.

There were limitations to transporting items using scrolls; the larger and heavier the item, the longer it would take to use.

Moreover, once it gets too big, it simply can't be sent in.

He went to great lengths to get the helicopter into the Painting Scroll World last time.

There's no way to send the weapons from the warships into the Painting Scroll World.

Most of the weapons on warships are fixed in place, and disassembling them would be too time-consuming.

The soldiers on the warship aren't stupid; they watched him dismantle the weapons.

The easiest things to take are undoubtedly the items from the warship's ammunition depot.

At the very least, the ammunition depot will definitely contain missiles.

He could also carry small shells in his Storage Bag.

With this in mind, Chen Feng immediately made up his mind.

He began to focus all his efforts on restoring his Spiritual Qi.

In the modern world, Yunnan Province.

The relocation of Xingfeng Group has been completed, and the new location has been chosen in the industrial park of Kunming.

Li Xiaorou directly bought three large factories in the industrial park.

There is also a standalone office building serving as the group's headquarters.

The purchase of these venues alone cost tens of millions of yuan, but fortunately, Xingfeng Group still has enough funds.

The first batch of Yangyuan Jianti Pills has already gone on sale, and sales on the first day exceeded five million.

If a portion hadn't been allocated to the military, sales would have been even higher.

Inside the group's headquarters office, Li Xiaorou was engrossed in handling matters.

She has been very busy these past few days. The establishment of the group is not a simple matter; the business integration alone requires a lot of work.

Just then, there was a knock on the office door.

Li Xiaorou said without looking up, "Come in."

Lin Wei walked into the office carrying a stack of documents.

"Mr. Li, I didn't want to bother you any longer."

Lin Wei walked up to Li Xiaorou with a faint smile on her face. She had just arrived in Yunnan Province.

Upon seeing that it was Lin Wei, Li Xiaorou immediately stood up:

"Professor Lin, why didn't you call me when you arrived? I could have come to pick you up."

Li Xiaorou dared not act like a general manager in front of Lin Wei.

She was well aware of this woman's position.

The other party is not only a top expert at Dragon Academy of Sciences, but also a powerful assistant to Chen Feng in scientific research.

Chen Feng had told her before that he had done a lot of research with Lin Wei.

This made Li Xiaorou very polite to Lin Wei.

"What's the point of accepting this? Have you chosen the location for the research institute yet?"

Lin Wei got straight to the point.

She came to see Li Xiaorou this time because she wanted to see her research institute, which Chen Feng had promised to build for her.

"The location has been chosen, and it's currently under renovation. Let me show you."

Lin Wei nodded, then followed Li Xiaorou out of the office.

The two women arrived near Xingfeng Group.

There is a standalone building here, very close to Xingfeng Group.

Workers are currently renovating this building.

"This used to be a detached villa, but it has now been bought," Li Xiaorou explained.

The purchase of this detached villa alone cost nearly seven million, not to mention the numerous approval procedures required for renovations.

But this is what Chen Feng entrusted to her.

Li Xiaorou also finished in the fastest time.

Lin Wei walked around the villa for a moment, then nodded slightly and said:

"It's alright, but I don't really like the style. This background wall needs to be changed."

Lin Wei then began to offer her suggestions.

Li Xiaorou also took notes carefully.

After noting down Lin Wei's thoughts, Li Xiaorou turned and asked:

"Professor Lin, I've chosen a place for you in the other neighborhood. Would you like to go take a look?"

Lin Wei shook her head. "No need, I'll live here from now on."

Upon hearing this, Li Xiaorou was taken aback and said, "This isn't a good idea. All the bedrooms in this villa have been renovated; the environment isn't very nice."

"These things don't matter, I like living here."

"Alright." Li Xiaorou didn't want to ask any more questions.

Although she knew Lin Wei liked research, she didn't expect her to be so persistent.

They actually plan to live directly at the research institute.

This shows how much one loves scientific research.

Just then, Li Xiaorou's phone rang. She took out her phone and saw that it was Liu Mu calling. She quickly answered the phone.

"Boss, I don't know where the boss is either. He hasn't contacted me for many days."

"Yes, boss."

After exchanging a few words, Li Xiaorou hung up the phone and turned to Lin Wei, saying:

"Professor Lin, do you know where the boss has been lately?"

Since Chen Feng finished explaining the relocation work to her, Li Xiaorou has not seen Chen Feng again.

She tried calling Chen Feng several times but couldn't get through.

Things are different now; the group was just established, and the boss has already disappeared.

That takes a lot of heart.

Lin Wei spread her hands and said:

"How would I know? He's never always been so elusive, but I'm sure he'll reappear in a few days."

Lin Wei found Chen Feng's disappearance quite normal.

Because she was already used to it.

"I wonder where the boss went. I hope he'll be back soon," Li Xiaorou said with a worried expression.

Seeing the expression on Li Xiaorou's face, Lin Wei suddenly asked:

"Are you his girlfriend?"

Upon hearing this, Li Xiaorou's face flushed red instantly.

"No, no, how could I possibly be the boss's girlfriend?"

Li Xiaorou didn't expect Lin Wei to suddenly ask this question.

This made her feel a little embarrassed.

Lin Wei's face showed a strange expression before she said:

"I was just joking. I need to get the equipment ready, so I'll be going now."

"Okay, okay," Li Xiaorou quickly agreed.

After Lin Wei left, Li Xiaorou shook her head helplessly and then returned to the company to continue her work.

Strategic Equipment Division.

Liu Mu sat in front of his office with a furrowed brow.

He hasn't been able to contact Chen Feng for two days.

This worried him greatly.

Chen Feng's importance to the country today is beyond doubt.

At that moment, a staff member walked into the room.

"Boss, we've found out. Professor Chen took a flight to the Eagle Sauce Country two days ago."

Upon hearing this, Liu Mu's expression immediately changed.

Going missing in the Eagle Sauce Country is definitely not a good thing.

"What should the leader do now?" The staff member's face also showed anxiety.

Chen Feng is now a top scientific research expert in China. If something happens to Chen Feng...

That would be a significant loss for domestic scientific research.

Most importantly, Chen Feng disappeared in the Eagle Sauce Country.
