Ancient Invasion [End Times]

No.80 Two Days After the Invasion [Third Update] Shuttle Thunderstorm Area

Another countdown popped up in Cheng Sheng's mind.

00:25:00

What Cheng Sheng could see, the other people sitting in the cargo hold could naturally see too.

Xu Ying's face was pale, it was the first time he saw such a big bird, and it was also the first time he saw the moment when the lightning struck.

The fear of being completely controlled by nature and the sudden small gap made her scalp tingle.

"Is this the thunderstorm area?" Lin Qian grabbed the solid object he could grab as a handle and shouted loudly.

"Otherwise?!" Du Nanrong also yelled.

"This is too fucking bad!" Lin Qian's face was pale.

"Stop swearing! There are children here!" Du Nanrong roared.

Lin Qian choked, looked at Luo Xiaonan and Du Jingshu who were screaming, and felt that they might not be able to hear his swear words at all.

"Can our plane withstand a thunderstorm?" Lin Qian asked, holding back his discomfort.

"If you can't carry it, you have to carry it." Xu Ying said with a pale face, and she held the handle tightly.

The saxifrage grows wildly and quickly, and uses its leaf petals to gently but powerfully press everyone tightly to prevent them from being thrown out of their seats.

— This set is almost familiar.

In the thunderstorm area that stretches for more than ten kilometers, there are more than ten thunderbolts falling at the same time almost at the same time, and no one knows who will be the next person to be in trouble.

Duan Yi and Zhang Jiuzhang were in the cockpit, and the power of the thunderstorm was unreservedly displayed in front of them.

The visibility ahead was only a few meters, and the windshield crackled due to the dense raindrops and hailstones.

Zhang Jiuzhang's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and the joystick in his hand shook violently.

Strong air turbulence and constant thunder and lightning have greatly tested the driver's skills and mentality.

Zhang Jiuzhang glanced at the display on the radar, and they were only a few kilometers away from crossing the thunderstorm area.

He took a deep breath and stared straight ahead.

They passed through the gap between two bands of thunderstorm clouds distributed in bands.

"There is only a gap of 45 kilometers." Zhang Jiuzhang reminded Duan Yi in a deep voice.

The space range of the shuttle cloud gap is not less than fifty to seventy kilometers.The space between the clouds less than [-] kilometers is almost an impossible task for traveling through the thunderstorm area.

"There is no other choice." Duan Yi said, he pushed the joystick with steady eyes.

Zhang Jiuzhang didn't say anything more, they really had no other choice——

They have been flying around the clouds outside the thunderstorm area for more than ten minutes, and their remaining fuel is not enough to allow them to continue circling.

The tonnage of medium-capacity transport aircraft limits their flight ceiling, and the fuel capacity is not enough to allow them to rise above the cloud tops;

On the other hand, the thunderstorm is too strong, the precipitation and hail are too dense, and the visibility under the cloud is extremely poor, which also cuts off the possibility of flying under the cloud.

They had no choice but to walk through the gaps in the clouds.

Duan Yi firmly controlled the joystick with both hands, and the 45-kilometer gap was their only life width.

When the fuselage passed through the gloomy and thick cloud gaps, no one expected that there was a pair of golden and clean sunshine outside the thunderstorm clouds, as if they had come to a new world in an instant.

Zhang Jiuzhang was in a trance for a moment—they really traveled from 45 kilometers away? !

"Be careful!" Duan Yi shouted suddenly, pulling Zhang Jiuzhang back to his senses.

In the next second, the fuselage shook violently and tilted to one side suddenly.

Above the head, the warning sound of damaged fuselage sounded, and the warning red light kept flashing.

"what happened?!"

"The wing was hit." Duan Yi said coldly, "We must make an emergency landing as soon as possible. Inform the doctor and them."

"receive."

In the cabin, Lin Qian and the others originally saw the golden sunny sky outside the window, and thought they had escaped by luck after the rain.

Lin Qian cheered. Seeing that Cheng Sheng still had an ugly face, he couldn't help laughing and said, "Doctor, we have passed through the thunderstorm zone!"

Cheng Sheng couldn't laugh, the countdown in his mind was clearly 15 minutes away.

In the next second, the bumps and shakes were stronger than those in the thunderstorm area, shaking people almost out of their seats.

Zhang Jiuzhang's voice came out of the loudspeaker again, carrying more bad news than ever.

Du Nanrong roared: "I don't want to hear his voice again!"

"Are we going to crash!?"

"Du Jingshu! Come and see the nearest place where you can make a forced landing!" Cheng Sheng shouted.

Du Jingshu's face was pale and pale, and his stomach was overwhelmed by the shock. Hearing what Cheng Sheng said, he reluctantly clicked on the electronic topographic map, and his eyes were dazzled.

"Where are we now?" Du Jingshu shouted.

Cheng paused.

In the next second, Duan Yi's steady voice came from the broadcasting speaker in the cabin, announcing their current location parameters, and asked Cheng Sheng and the others to find a suitable place for emergency landing as soon as possible.

Zhang Jiuzhang opened the cockpit and shouted, "Did you find it?"

"Got it, I'll look for it, I'll look for it..." Du Jingshu babbled.

For the first time, Du Jingshu felt that his mind could turn so fast.

She quickly reported a geographical parameter and shouted: "This is an inland river! The width and depth should be enough for this transport plane to make an emergency landing!"

"Received." Zhang Jiuzhang took a quick look at the little girl, and immediately went back to tell Duan Yi without saying a word.

Duan Yi responded.

Zhang Jiuzhang reset the destination parameters and said: "There are still 58 kilometers left, and it is estimated that there are still 13 minutes."

After he finished speaking, he reminded Cheng Sheng and the others in the warehouse.

Upon hearing this, Du Nanrong and the others shouted immediately: "Everyone is ready for water!"

Lin Qian grabbed Luo Xiaonan with one hand, and tightly held Cheng Sheng's wheelchair with the other: "Got it!"

Xu Ying found a few strands of rope in a hurry, and quickly tied Cheng Sheng and herself together. She said in a low voice, "In case it is washed away in the river under the impact, the doctor will bear it first."

Cheng Sheng had no objection, but his face was not very good-looking.

They could already clearly see the river below, which was as wide as a small lake.

"With such a wide water surface, landing shouldn't be a problem!" Lin Qian shouted.

The body quickly landed and slid, and the inland river as wide as a lake began to narrow visibly with the naked eye.

Lin Qian could even see the river banks on both sides.

"My mother's mouth..." was almost reversed.Lin Qian's pupils shrank severely.

They don't have landing gear, and the slowing effect of sliding on the water surface is very small, and they are still sliding at a speed of more than ten kilometers per minute.

If this continues, the river will inevitably be so narrow that it hits the banks on both sides.

Countdown 00:00:05

"Everyone is ready to crash!" Zhang Jiuzhang roared from the loudspeaker.

Countdown 00:00:02

"Is anyone afraid of water?" Lin Qian shouted, "How is the doctor?!"

Countdown 00:00:00

The body ruthlessly rubbed against both sides of the river, and stopped abruptly with the help of the huge resistance generated by the friction.

River water began to seep into the cabin.

"Open the hatch!" Zhang Jiuzhang roared to remind everyone, and immediately opened the hatch.

The river suddenly poured in, washing away the people in the cabin in minutes.

They still underestimated the strength of the river.

Everyone sank into the river in embarrassment.

Lin Qian hugged Luo Xiaonan with one arm, and struggled to surface.

They were rushed by the river to the place closest to the river bank. He hurriedly pulled up the branches that extended and hung down to the river bank, and then fixed himself, and threw Luo Xiaonan onto the bank with all his strength.

Just as Lin Qian was about to climb ashore, he saw the doctor's wheelchair floating in front of him from one side along the turbulent river.

Lin Qian: "..." It's like a predestined fate.

He quickly tied the branch around his waist, took a deep breath, and plunged into the river, almost within reach of his hand. Lin Qian grasped it precisely, and felt that the branch on his waist could hardly hold up. He jumped out of the river in a hurry, and with his other hand, he grabbed another branch on the river bank.

After Luo Xiaonan climbed ashore, he was looking for Lin Qian. When he saw Lin Qian's head finally emerged, he ran over with short legs, held Lin Qian's hand tightly with both hands, and cried hysterically: "Brother, brother, Whoa-"

Lin Qian struggled to drag the wheelchair ashore, coughed while choking on the water and comforted Luo Xiaonan: "It's okay, it's okay."

Du Nanrong grabbed Du Jingshu, and the saxifrage took root in the mud at the bottom of the river after it fell into the water, and directly fished Du Nanrong and Du Jingshu out of the river.

Only Xu Ying and Cheng Sheng remained.

Lin Qian and the others stared blankly at the river. Lin Qian suddenly stood up and shouted, "Xu Ying?! Doctor?!"

Xu Ying was under the river with Cheng Sheng tied around her waist. The moment she fell into the water, she sank suddenly, was rushed by the river, and hit a crossbar in the middle of the water head-on.

Xu Ying was knocked so hard that she spit out, she recovered quickly, held Cheng Sheng tightly with one hand, and pulled the river with the other, pushing hard towards the surface of the river.

Cheng Sheng's face was as white as a piece of paper, and he was stuck in the water stiffly. It wasn't until he fell into the water that he realized how serious his fear of water was.

—he took a bath once, then hated soaking in it, and has taken showers forever since.

But Cheng Sheng didn't think it was because he was afraid of water, he just thought it was disgusting to support himself with his hands to move around, but fell into the bathtub again, reminding him once again that he was disabled.

Cheng Sheng raised his head slightly, looked at Xu Ying who was completely dragged down by him, struggling desperately but unable to surface, and slowly blinked his eyes under the water.

He turned his eyes and saw a clump of aquatic plants in front of him, firmly rooted in the silt of the river bed.

Cheng Sheng stretched out his hand stiffly to grab the clump of plants, took out a small knife from his pocket, and slashed the rope tied around Xu Ying's waist.

Xu Ying only felt her body lighten, and she surfaced in the next second.

"Xu Ying!"

She heard the shouts of Lin Qian and Du Nanrong, she reacted suddenly, pulled the rope hard, and pulled out a severed rope.

Duan Yi was not far away from her. Just as he came out of the water, he saw Xu Ying holding the rope in his hand. His pupils shrank slightly. He took a deep breath and plunged deep into the river.

The undercurrent between the rivers is fast and evil.

It was clearly only 30 meters away, but it was difficult to approach because of the undercurrent.

Duan Yi grabbed the clumps of aquatic plants in his hand and approached with great effort. At the other end, Xu Ying also took a deep breath and plunged into the water in one breath.

Through the drowsy and dirty water, Cheng Sheng saw Duan Yi swimming towards him.

He calculated in his mind how much time he would have to lose consciousness after the oxygen was forced out of his lungs, and how much time he would have left for Duan Yi to give golden first aid after losing consciousness.

——In fact, he already had a number in his mind, but he still did the calculation slowly in his heart.

Otherwise, under the fear of water, his genius brain would turn into a mass of waste stuffed with aquatic plants, which Cheng Sheng would never allow to happen.

He felt that his perception of his hands and feet was becoming more and more sluggish, and it seemed that the difference in temperature was far away from him.

He blinked slowly.

One second before the darkness fell, what he saw was still Duan Yi, who stretched out his hand towards him.

Cheng Sheng raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

……

When Cheng Sheng became conscious again, the first thing he felt was the burning pain in his lungs.

He woke up violently choking on water and coughing. When he opened his eyes, he saw Duan Yi, who was soaked all over his body, lying on his body, squeezing his chest with both hands, as if his chest and ribs were about to be broken by Duan Yi.

Cheng Sheng raised his hand with difficulty to grab Duan Yi: "Enough, enough...cough!"

Duan Yi suddenly stopped.

He looked at Cheng Sheng, breathing cautiously and tremblingly, he gently raised Cheng Sheng's neck, and stroked Cheng Sheng's slightly cold and bloodless cheek with his palm: "You are betting your life on whether I can save you?"

"It's not a gamble." Cheng Sheng coughed. He pointed to his head with great effort, and grinned weakly at Duan Yi, "You can definitely do the calculation here."
