As the metal claws latched onto the aircraft, a massive surge of electricity swept through it, causing a series of explosive sounds to erupt inside.
These were the noises of electronic structures or components bursting apart.
Smoke billowed from several compartments of the aircraft, while many Tarros Red Dwarfs scurried around, trying to repair the damaged areas and prevent potential fires from breaking out.
A few peak experts glanced at each other and realized that the aircraft would be unusable for at least a short time.
However, they were not too concerned; contacting the base here would allow a new aircraft to arrive within a few hours.
As for the tremendous electric currents that could damage various electronic components, they, along with the warriors on the aircraft, remained indifferent.
Jie Luo led her people and jumped off the aircraft.
The other peak experts calmly walked toward the hatch amidst the flickering lights of the aircraft.
“Crack, buzz…”
A strange noise made everyone pause, and Daqu Wu frowned, “Is it those chains again?”
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire aircraft began to tremble.
Sharp and agile as they were, the peak experts quickly stabilized themselves and dashed out in all directions.
At this moment, they did not care about the aircraft's integrity, as it was already warped and several parts were ripped away from the hull.
A well-functioning aircraft had transformed into something resembling a hive with half of it sheared off, all due to the departure of those metal claws.
Many Tarros Red Dwarf warriors fell from the aircraft due to being unprepared.
Of course, they were elite warriors, so falling from this height wouldn't kill them, and whether they got injured depended on their luck or carelessness.
The few peak experts hovering around the aircraft were filled with rage.
While these little actions posed no threat to them, they felt it was a provocation and a response to their earlier reckless landing.
When had these dignified individuals ever been treated this way? Jie Luo, who had the worst temper, had her expression change; with her hands down, an invisible force slammed down onto the ground of Dark Strip City.
After a massive tremor, a large pit formed, and the shockwaves caused dozens of nearby buildings to collapse.
This did not satisfy Jie Luo; she glanced at the aircraft and saw that her kin were gradually evacuating.
Even though the aircraft was expensive, it was more important for the elite accompanying the peak experts to seek revenge than to maintain the machine.
So Jie Luo thought no further of it. She grasped something from the sky as if seizing a powerful force, then directed that force into the building that had been shaken but not toppled.
As for the completed metal claws, they had already fallen to the ground, unmoving.
The headquarters of the Star-Eye Clan in Dark Strip City was utterly destroyed under Jie Luo’s strike.
The dwarf’s aircraft then crashed to the ground, causing the entire city to tremble once again today.
Any city's tallest buildings collapsing due to external forces can almost always be deemed a significant blow, marking it as an iconic event.
In the end, this incident would trigger many chain reactions, representing the rise or fall of certain entities, revenge or patience.
Clearly, Dark Strip City did not show patience, nor did the Star-Eye Clan, and Ye Zhong Ming certainly did not.
At the moment the building collapsed, many places on the street suddenly opened small holes, square-shaped, about twenty centimeters across.
After the small holes opened, numerous small boxes burst out, making loud popping sounds as they flew outward.
At this very moment, in Cloud Summit Manor, Ye Zhong Ming was sitting in front of the light barrier, watching everything unfold in Dark Strip City.
As he saw the boxes erupting from the ground, the calm and gentle smile that always adorned his face vanished, replaced by a slight grimace.
“Consider this your first gift, I hope you like it.”
