Chapter 548: Chapter 255: Underground Fissure_2 Chapter 548: Chapter 255: Underground Fissure_2 More than twenty minutes later, a loud engine roar came from the distant sky again. Yan Fei extended a mirror from the underground to use its reflective surface to observe the situation above and spotted five Apache armed helicopters approaching from a distance.
The five Apache armed helicopters did not make any superfluous maneuvers; they headed straight for Yan Fei's hiding place. After a few minutes, they hovered in the sky directly above Yan Fei, and the 20-millimeter naval cannons on the helicopters started to adjust and then aimed at the fissure where Yan Fei was hiding.
Seeing these Apache armed helicopters targeting him with their onboard weapons, Yan Fei felt a jolt in his heart. What on earth was going on?
When Yan Fei spotted the 10 Attack Planes that didn't leave the sky, he thought it was a coincidence, that they must be engaged in some kind of tactical training; when he saw the five Apache armed helicopters approaching, Yan Fei still held out hope, thinking they were just routine armed patrols by the US Forces; but when he saw the armed helicopters directly hovering above and targeting him, even if Yan Fei was reluctant to believe it, he had to accept the reality: he and Yang Qi had been discovered by the US Forces again. Whether it was the 10 Attack Planes or the Apache armed helicopters, their targets were him and Yang Qi.
According to Yan Fei's original plan, once he escaped from the Rocky Mountains with Yang Qi, they could simply dive into any wasteland or desert, and it would take the US Forces a significant amount of time to find them. Even if the US Forces had all sorts of high-tech capabilities and eventually found them, it would at least have to wait until after the drone data refresh. However, the rate at which Yan Fei and Yang Qi's whereabouts were exposed far exceeded Yan Fei's imagination.
What puzzled Yan Fei was that he had been very cautious in his actions, and it was nighttime. Although there was some moonlight, the visibility was definitely not enough for the satellites in outer space to detect their movements. So how had their location been exposed?
In the daytime, Yan Fei was quickly discovered by the US Forces and surrounded. At that time, he thought it was due to satellite reconnaissance from US Army Satellites in outer space, but at night when satellites could no longer be used, the same situation occurred. So, the reason for the exposure of their whereabouts must not have been satellite reconnaissance.
If it wasn't because of satellite reconnaissance, then what was the problem? What had caused the rapid exposure of Yan Fei and Yang Qi's location?
Yan Fei was at a loss, but just as he turned his head and saw Yang Qi in a daze, he suddenly thought of a possibility. But before he could discuss it with Yang Qi, the Apache armed helicopters in the sky began to descend, as if they were about to launch an attack on Yan Fei.
Yan Fei sensed the danger; without having time to inquire with Yang Qi, he grabbed Yang Qi and ran north along the fissure. Yan Fei's speed was very fast; in a short amount of time, he managed to run a distance of two kilometers to the north, passing through an underground branch on the way.
However, what Yan Fei very much didn't want to see still happened. As he ran, the Apache armed helicopters in the sky followed his movement, constantly aiming their cannon barrels at Yan Fei's position. Considering that the underground fissures were not open-air and well-lit, the Apache armed helicopters in the sky would have had no way to spot Yan Fei underground.
Seeing this situation, Yan Fei gave up all hope, no longer harboring any illusions. His location had indeed been exposed, and the US Forces were not merely bluffing him here.
Yan Fei couldn't care about anything else; he set Yang Qi down and shook Yang Qi awake from his own world, asking, “Yang Qi, are you carrying anything on you?”
Yang Qi's eyes were somewhat blurry, and it took a while before he came to his senses and said, “Carrying anything?”
Seeing Yang Qi in a dazed state, Yan Fei couldn't help but feel helpless. Time was of the essence, and Yang Qi was not cooperating with him, which prevented Yan Fei from obtaining the intelligence he needed in a short time. So Yan Fei decided to take matters into his own hands. He stepped forward, began to undress Yang Qi, and soon stripped Yang Qi to the skin, then collected all of Yang Qi's clothes into the Universal Space. Then Yan Fei took out replacement clothes usually prepared in the Universal Space and
