Chapter 208: Chapter 122: Terrifying Experience at High Altitude_2
Yan Fei’s plan was very good, but he overlooked one point, that is, after the seaplane ascended to an altitude of ten thousand meters, due to the rapid decrease in temperature, the seawater on the aircraft’s body had frozen into ice, becoming extremely smooth. The moment Yan Fei landed on the body of the seaplane, his feet slipped, and he failed to stand firm, falling off the seaplane just like that.
Yan Fei’s body plummeted toward the ground from an altitude of ten thousand meters, but having dropped just over five hundred meters, the Drone Avatar appeared beneath him, and Yan Fei happened to fall into the cockpit the Drone Avatar had opened. Once the Drone caught Yan Fei, it closed the cockpit and continued to descend, offsetting the huge impact of Yan Fei’s fall from the sky. Once Yan Fei’s impact force was fully neutralized, the Drone accelerated and rose back up, returning to the skies above the seaplane at high altitude.
Yan Fei’s initial airborne landing lacked experience and resulted in a serious mistake; if it weren’t for the presence of the Drone Avatar, Yan Fei would have truly fallen from the sky and died on impact. However, with this experience, Yan Fei now knew how to handle the situation of ice forming on the plane. Therefore, the Drone Avatar once again turned belly up and pointed its cockpit downward, and then Yan Fei made another airborne landing.
With the experience from before, Yan Fei once again overcame the negative impacts of extreme cold and thin air. He then descended smoothly down to the seaplane’s top with the aid of the strong Gang wind, producing another “thud.”
Inside the airplane, after the initial “thud,” the Black Robe in the cockpit and the black-clad woman took notice, but as they became cautious and guarded, nothing else happened. So when they heard the sound for the second time, they assumed it was a problem with some part of the seaplane and did not pay further attention to it.
Yan Fei had overcome the icing on the seaplane and stood firmly on top of its body. He surveyed the situation and began to slowly slide downward, under the influence of the Gang wind, from the top to the bottom of the aircraft. In the moment of sliding down, Yan Fei seized the right moment and, in a fraction of a second, grasped the handle of the side hatch, his body becoming a straight line in the fierce wind.
Yan Fei’s hands held tightly onto the handle, and it was fairly easy for him to pull himself back up. Then, with his hands gripping the handle and feet planted at a ninety-degree angle on the body of the aircraft next to the hatch, he timed his next move perfectly, suddenly exerting force, and just like that, he tore open the airplane’s cabin door from the outside. Releasing his grip, the cabin door flew backwards and disappeared into the pitch-black sky, and then he slipped inside the seaplane with one swift movement.
After the seaplane had reached the high altitude, to maintain internal cabin pressure, it was necessary to pressurize the cabin, so the pressure inside was much higher than outside. Now that Yan Fei had opened the aircraft’s door, the cabin rapidly depressurized, causing severe turbulence. Under the pressure, it could be seen that objects inside the plane flew out rapidly through the torn-off hatch. Lu Pingping, who was seated, was sent flying toward the outside of the cabin.
Yan Fei had calculated everything perfectly; as soon as Lu Pingping flew towards him, he would catch her and then the two of them would immediately leave the seaplane, returning to the Drone. In the end, they would use the Drone Avatar’s weapons to destroy the seaplane and the Assassin inside it, concluding everything; his plan was very well-crafted.
But worldly matters are unpredictable; no one knows in what direction well-laid plans will evolve the next second. Yan Fei’s surprise attack indeed caught the Assassin inside the seaplane off guard, but to everyone’s astonishment, Lu Pingping, when thrown outwards due to the air turbulence, ended up right next to the black-clad woman, who was dazed by the sudden catastrophe. Almost reflexively, the woman stretched out her hand and caught Lu Pingping.
Yan Fei had extended his hand, ready to catch Lu Pingping, but found that someone had intercepted her right in front of him. As soon as the black-clad woman caught Lu Pingping, she grabbed her neck with a reverse grip, and a large Desert Eagle appeared in her hand, aiming at Yan Fei in front. At that moment, the air pressure inside and outside the seaplane cabin stabilized again, and the objects stopped flying outward; the flight of the seaplane once again became smooth.
The Ghost mask that Yan Fei wore on his face was blown away by the violent Gang wind while he was in the air, revealing his true face. The black-clad woman *poi. saw Yan Fei at the entrance of the seaplane and was momentarily surprised, her Desert Eagle not firing.
And just then, Lu Pingping, held hostage, began to wake up from the combined shock of the turbulent airflow and the extremely low temperature. The moment she opened her eyes, she saw Yan Fei standing in front of her. Something seemed to jog her memory, and she suddenly shouted, “Fei, someone’s trying to grab you, run!”
Yan Fei was moved; Lu Pingping had just woken up, and without assessing her own situation, the first thing she did upon seeing him was to warn him, telling him to run—she was truly being a good friend. Then Lu Pingping realized she was being held hostage, and that she was still inside the airplane. With the lights in the cabin flickering constantly and the exterior enshrouded in darkness, she didn’t know what was happening and panic began to set in her heart.
