I Became an Academy Attack Helicopter

123 – Chapter 40. Cradle of Water – 1

– 124 –

After a few days.

A concise order was issued to the major cities, fortresses, and troops of the spirit world.

“Gather to the cradle of water.”

The Tower of Wind, the only place where you can communicate with God, acts as a command center when He gives orders directly like this time.

In terms of the role, it must be close to the central headquarters where the commander in chief stays.

After hearing the details of the operation, Arumanan and I went to the mirror room to report the sortie.

“Then, I will go.”

[[You know that you are the core force, right? Oh, Misfire. I’m looking forward to seeing that the arsenal master has slightly upgraded your body.]]

“Is this Tyran?”

I borrowed it for repairing the main body in the physical world as a reference for making a helicopter for my friends, but it seems that something was added in the meantime.

I wanted to ask what the function is, but Tyran will probably be very busy making helicopters for the warriors and also operating an arsenal.

Your subordinates will tell you later.

“I’ll bring the body.”

“Okay. Come up to the motherhood.”

When I looked up slightly, I saw Arumanan’s Air Carrier anchored in the air.

Usually it travels in the form of a battleship with strong firepower, but it transforms into an aircraft carrier in special situations such as transporting large-scale troops.

Now, while traversing the Spirit Realm, he is going to gather the troops tied up due to space cuts, etc.

The firepower of Arumanan changed to the carrier has weakened somewhat, so I have to fill the gap.

If demons attack you in the air.

A terrifying gun was hung from the bottom of the aircraft carrier Arumanan.

It is difficult to attack in the air because of the angle, but the attack on the ground is as good as a battleship.

I broke up with Arumanan and headed to the arsenal with a few guards.

There is no capital in the spirit world, but Elemenes was playing that role, and there was an arsenal on the outskirts of the city.

“Welcome, Misfire. The weapons you entrusted are there.”

Following the guidance of the soldiers guarding the arsenal, we headed to the empty lot lined with weapons.

Tanks, airplanes, helicopters and transport vehicles were lined up so that you could not see the end.

Hundreds of spirits were busy running around, loading supplies, and driving their weapons to the assembly point, and I headed towards my body.

A silver dragon slightly larger than other helicopters.

Helicopter that shares the same status with me in the same aircraft name as mine.

The appearance of the body was the same as in the past, but I was very different.

Although strength or ability is lower than in the past, I don’t think it’s a regression.

I was worried about studying and exams, knowing nothing but combat, and my only acquaintances were comrades, but now I have many friends and seniors and juniors.

It’s just a name, but I have a family.

So I’ll have to go back soon.

In a little while, all of the physical body will be healed.

Leaving behind the faint laughter that flowed unwittingly, I climbed onto the body.

As soon as I boarded the plane, I could immediately see where and how it had changed.

Tiran seems to have used a bit of energy.

“Let’s go.”

[[Yes!]]

Feeling a sense of stability in the self-winding seat belt and the integrated helmet that is naturally installed, I headed to Arumanan.

“The battle command room informs you. Currently, the ship is heading to Prana, the port city closest to the Cradle of Water, via Elamana and Silaon. The cut-off areas of each region are liberated by the late arrivals, so only those who are isolated quickly need to be rescued.”

The spirits responded positively with their own voices.

The main goal of the operation was to gather troops and first go to the cradle of water to deal with the enemies, as Arumanan, who can safely move in the air regardless of the blockage of terrain by space cutoff, was the main goal of the operation.

The latecomers are said to be slowly ascending while arranging the areas with the ‘method of breaking the spatial severance’ that was developed a while ago.

If you take this opportunity to root out the gates connected to the demon realm, you can face the enemies without worrying about the back of your head.

It is a battle that may determine the fate of the spirit world, and furthermore, the demon world and the material world.

“Whoa.”

I was nervous because I didn’t know when the enemies might appear, so my body ached.

The observers are closely looking around, so let’s stretch a little.

I loosened my seat belt, fell on the chair, stretched my arms and waist, and raised my head, and my eyes met Arumanan through the window.

The eyes and mouth of Aruma Nan, who could not be covered with her thin veil, were slightly curved.

Hiding her embarrassment, she got off her helicopter and stood in front of her.

“What’s going on?”

“I’m here to tell you because it’s my first destination soon.”

“But there is no need for the captain to come.”

Arumanan raised an eyebrow at my words.

“It was always my role to see Miffy off.”

Looking back on her memories, it is clear that during the Shinma War, when Aruma Nan was traveling with her, Aruma Nan would see her off in every battle.

It was like the last battle I participated in.

When she nodded to remind her, Aruma Nan handed her some magic stones containing Sanctuary of Mist.

“Now I can use Mirage Sanctuary.”

“Is that the same as this one? Take it with you when you get it.”

Aruma Nan, who forcibly squeezed her magic stone into my hand like her grandmother stabbing her snack into her grandson’s pocket, waved her hand away after her brief briefing on operations. .

Aruma Nan’s guards bowed her head to her and followed her in full force.

After the commotion was over, I looked around the helicopters lined up on the wide deck.

The helicopter units temporarily deployed under my command were roaring their engines and ready to take off at any moment.

Should I leave soon?

I got on the body and fastened the seat belt.

“Misfire-sama. It’s three minutes before the start of the operation.”

“Rager.”

When I lowered the visor of the integrated helmet, various information came to mind.

The location and size of enemies scanned by detectives. Putting the condition of the ally into the head, he started the engine slowly.

The rotor that starts to spin gently creates a breeze on the deck.

「One minute left.」

“All helicopter units are ready to take off.”

Dozens of attack helicopters started all at once.

There was a loud noise and strong wind that made the spirits who were making hand signals flinch as the main rotor rotated.

“Operation begins.”

When the lever was pulled, the helicopter that was holding back its power was released and it started moving away from the deck in an instant.

As I set off in the lead, the helicopters that were fully seated on one side of the deck one after another left the carrier Arumanan and soared high into the sky.

Everyone was flying vigorously because they were helicopters that were made using the manastones of the fresh wind that were collected from the mine a few days ago.

I did not replace the Mana Stones as I was fine in the spirit world and the material world.

Of course, there were no manastones as large as mine, except for those used by Zermia and Shane.

Even if there was one, it was moved to the physical world for my treatment.

It is said that it will be healed within a week, but before that, you must protect the cradle of water and close the gates of the demons.

The destination we are heading to now is the valley area where small fire spirits are bound.

It was a difficult terrain to get out of unless it was a spirit of the earth that made underground escape routes everywhere or a spirit of the wind that was small and able to fly.

A dark red cloud hung over the sky above the valley.

The unique color of the spirit world, which is different from the material world, is added to create a landscape that seems somewhat difficult to the human senses.

「Hawk 1. Break zone found. Demons are lining up nearby. Intercept orders.”

“Copy. Hawks 2 and 3 start intercepting with Hawk 1 from the right. Let the rest follow me.”

「「Large.」」

Three attack helicopters moving in the lead turned their noses to the right.

I headed to the left of the valley with the rest of the attack helicopters and transport planes.

A huge black hemispherical space on the other side of the mountain, beyond the valley where the allies were, was revealing its presence.

The intermittent gunfire along the outskirts of the space and the smoke rising through the valley informed us that there were still surviving ally.

Whoever sees it might be wondering whether it is necessary to save the spirit anyway to be resurrected, but being a spirit does not mean that you can throw away your life like a dog at any time.

Like a human, if you are reborn, you won’t lose all your memories or experiences, but a spirit will lose most of the experience and strength it has accumulated while only maintaining important memories and innate attributes.

Higher spirits are sometimes demoted to intermediate level or lower, and it takes a long time to replenish, so you need to save the spirits that can be saved.

Especially, the troops Arumanan went to rescue this time were the elite soldiers who had survived confrontation with the demons for a long time.

The speed of restoring the spirit world and blocking the gate to the material world will vary depending on how many spirits are saved in this tour.

Beep-

The visor beeps.

The demons perched on the ridgeline randomly fired firearms to form an anti-communist network.

Fortunately, there were almost no direct attacks due to the lack of anti-aircraft weapons.

After biting the transport helicopters back, they went all the way down from the mountaintop to the top of the valley together with the attack helicopter squadron.

Kwaang-bang!

Dozens of Hellfires lit autumn leaves made of fire.

The chain gun blew high dust on the ground and suppressed his demons, and the counterattack gradually weakened.

When demons die in the spirit realm or in the demon realm, those who get stronger will come out, so they attacked mainly those with weapons and weapons in the direction of saving their lives as much as possible.

When there were no more weapons to counterattack, the demons abandoned their personal weapons and surrendered.

Intermediate land combat spirits riding on transport helicopters descended on rappels and subdued them.

“The suppression has been completed.”

“You did a great job. We pick up the isolated soldiers and set off straight away.”

Intermediate wind spirits, scouts, disappeared down the valley.

After a while, the fire spirits in warlike military uniforms struggled to climb up the valley.

They looked tired, but their eyes were alive.

“I’m sorry for the late rescue. My name is Misfire.”

“Ah! You are the daughter of fire and wind. It is an honor to meet you.”

A medium-level fire spirit with a lizard face bowed its head.

When the situation stabilized, the fire spirits brought a large, heavy-looking cannon and loaded it into the largest transport helicopter.

“Is that?”

“This is the reason I kept here. It is a super-precision cannon that our Fire Snake Artillery Brigade is proud of.”

“Oh.”

I got an unexpected item.

On the other hand, what will happen if these weapons fall into the hands of the enemy…….

I’ll have to get the rest of the troops as well.

A total of five isolated units were rescued over the next two days.

It was mainly mountainous, but there were also unusual areas such as islands and floating islands.

And every time I saved a unit, I got something.

Ultra-precision cannons, dozens of test power armors with jetpacks, a few spirit evolution stones, etc.

Especially, Arumanan was surprised and made a fuss about what he got on the last floating island.

Pretty colored stones engraved in the shape of a small key.

It looks like a simple imitation jewel.

“Is this so great?”

“Of course. It strengthens one weapon quite a bit. It’s a hard thing to make now, but there are still some dragons left. Especially with you.”

“What kind of function is it?”

Arumanan pointed to my body, which had landed on the deck of the battlefield full of spirits.

“You can increase the number of spirits in your body.”

“Really?”

Now, my direct subordinates had five mid-level wind spirits and two fire spirits.

Even with simple calculations, the number of spirits that can be operated increases by 1/7, and it was also a necessary item to properly use the functions that Tyran gave.

“There are nearly a hundred spirits under Nana Bartiers. Instead, I don’t have a close relationship with the subordinates like you. Most of them are working hard to move the main body, and they are not children who act like limbs.”

In other words, it was said that the weight of a single spirit was much greater than mine.

Arumanan held the stone in my hand.

“So, you write this.”

I wondered if I could just use something precious, but I had to raise my strength a little more.

“Okay. Thank you.”

“What. You found it, so you have to write it.”

He nodded his head slightly to Arumanan and then approached the main body.

Many low-level spirits were mounted on the main body that was approached through the crowds of spirits.

There were too many troops saved than I expected, so I was worried that Arumanan would sink.

“Everyone, come out for a second.”

The lesser spirits came down the window like a slide.

After all the spirits got out of the way, they put their hands on the body while holding the stones.

Woowoong

The stones started to shine with a low sound.

“Ah.”

I felt like something was expanding inside me.

What should I do? Tolerance? Leniency?

I looked down at my body just in case, but the small, flat hill remained the same.

Yes. I didn’t even expect it.

He sighed lightly and looked over the deck.

I could see a place on the horizon where all the elements of water in the spirit world, including seawater, rivers, lakes, waterfalls, and fountains, gathered and left.

Beyond, the dark red sky that cast an ominous shadow took my breath away.

Finally, we arrived at the cradle of water.
