Chapter 648 - 609: It looks like a pipe, but it’s actually a missile launcher.
When Zhao Rong saw the astonished looks on his assistant’s and the three women’s faces, he took the pipe from his mouth. Pointing to its trigger, he said, "Miss Lili, Yu Lan, Xue Lianmei, this thing may look like a pipe, but it isn’t. It’s an air-to-air missile launcher..."
When the assistant and the three women heard that the ordinary, somewhat crude-looking pipe in Zhao Rong’s hand was an air-to-air missile launcher, they were so shocked they staggered back.
The assistant took the pipe from Zhao Rong’s hand, examining it closely. "Zhao Rong, how can such a small pipe be an air-to-air missile launcher?" he asked.
Zhao Rong told his assistant, "Assistant, you can’t judge a book by its cover. This pipe isn’t for smoking; it’s for launching missiles..."
Miss Lili took the so-called pipe from the assistant’s hand. She put it to her lips and took a puff, discovering that it actually produced smoke. Frowning, she asked with confusion, "Zhao Rong, this is clearly a real pipe, filled with tobacco that can be smoked. Why did you lie and say it’s an air-to-air missile launcher?"
Zhao Rong smiled and told Miss Lili, "Actually, I misspoke. This pipe isn’t just an air-to-air missile launcher. It’s also a surface-to-air missile launcher and an anti-ship missile launcher..."
When Yu Lan heard that such a tiny pipe could launch air-to-air, surface-to-air, and even anti-ship missiles capable of sinking ships, she said in utter disbelief, "Zhao Rong, I really can’t imagine what size missile could fit in such a small pipe. How can it launch air-to-air and surface-to-air missiles? And you’re saying its missiles can sink ships? That’s just unbelievable, isn’t it?"
Hearing Yu Lan’s words, Zhao Rong immediately took out the manual. He pointed to the picture of the ’Little Oriole’ aircraft carrier and said, "Yu Lan, you shouldn’t underestimate this little pipe. The anti-ship missile it launches can sink an aircraft carrier."
When Xue Lianmei heard that a missile from this tiny pipe could sink a behemoth aircraft carrier—a feat no other weapon in the world could accomplish—she jumped out of the car in amazement. Snatching the pipe from Yu Lan’s hand, she examined it carefully, inch by inch, and asked, "Zhao Rong, you’re not joking, are you? A missile from this tiny pipe can really sink an aircraft carrier?"
Zhao Rong nodded confidently. He pointed to an aircraft carrier displayed on the radar, positioned over the Persian Gulf, and said with a smile, "Xue Lianmei, take a good look at our vehicle’s radar. Do you see that aircraft carrier stationed in the Persian Gulf?"
Xue Lianmei nodded, her eyes wide. "Yes, Zhao Rong. That’s an Anglo-Saxon aircraft carrier. It’s stationed in the Persian Gulf to blockade the Persians from selling their oil."
Zhao Rong nodded. He held the pipe, opened a computer to set the coordinates, then pulled the trigger on the pipe. "Xue Lianmei," he said, "roll down the window. A nano-missile is about to launch from my pipe and sink that aircraft carrier in the Persian Gulf."
Xue Lianmei followed Zhao Rong’s instructions, rolling down the window and staring intently at the pipe’s bowl. In the space of a second, a wisp of grey smoke puffed out, and a melon-seed-sized object shot from the pipe. It flew through the open window at high speed, heading for the Persian Gulf thousands of miles away.
Zhao Rong pointed to the red dot on the radar and said to Xue Lianmei, "Watch closely, Xue Lianmei. The missile launched from my pipe will travel faster than the speed of light to reach the Persian Gulf, and it will sink that aircraft carrier."
Before Zhao Rong could even finish his sentence, Xue Lianmei saw the red dot representing the aircraft carrier on the radar explode and then vanish without a trace.
Xue Lianmei was stunned. She said in disbelief, "Zhao Rong, this is too incredible! A tiny seed from a pipe just sank the arrogant and overbearing Anglo-Saxons’ aircraft carrier. This completely shatters my worldview. I, Xue Lianmei, am absolutely dumbfounded..."
After witnessing this, Xue Lianmei was completely convinced. She opened the window and shouted to the pilots of the small aircraft circling them, "You pilots! Even though you fired your Laser Cannons at our flying car, we are being magnanimous and sparing your lives! If you know what’s good for you, get out of here now! Otherwise, Zhao Rong will use the air-to-air missiles from this pipe to shoot every last one of you out of the sky! You’ll crash to the ground and be smashed to pieces!"
When the pilots heard Xue Lianmei, they were stunned for a moment before bursting into laughter. "Lady, do you take us for fools?" one of them mocked. "You think a little seed from a shabby pipe can shoot down our planes? That’s as ridiculous as an egg trying to break a stone. You’re seriously overestimating yourself."
The pilot of the green aircraft sneered, "Miss, if a seed from that pipe can shoot down our planes, I’ll go eat crap out of a toilet!"
The pilot of the black aircraft was even more arrogant. "The only reason our autocannons didn’t blast your car out of the sky before was because we were holding back. We’re done going easy on you. We’re about to open fire and shoot you down. Prepare to die!"
Hearing the pilots’ arrogant threats, Xue Lianmei didn’t hesitate. Raising the pipe, she pulled the trigger and said, "You arrogant, overconfident fools. I’ll shoot down your little planes right now and send you to the Western Heaven!"
As she spoke, a seed-like projectile shot out, targeting the aircraft circling them.
As Xue Lianmei fired the air-to-air missile from the pipe, Miss Lili and Yu Lan, sitting beside her, clapped and cheered. "Go, Xue Lianmei! You handle the enemies today. Let Zhao Rong rest for a while!"
The three women then sat back, waiting to watch Xue Lianmei use the pipe to shoot down all of the surrounding aircraft.
