Chapter 284: Chapter 8: Reunion After 600 Years (Added for Cat Sun Alliance Leader!) Chapter 284: Chapter 8: Reunion After 600 Years (Added for Cat Sun Alliance Leader!) “`
However,
there was no ti left for Lin Xian to think—
Whoosh!
A red laser as thick as the embrace of a large tree suddenly appeared in the night sky, accurately striking Ah Zhuang, who was flying ahead!
In the blink of an eye…
Ah Zhuang, with his bulky fra, complex equipnt, and spacesuit, vanished from sight.
Only several clumps of charred carbon remained, emitting a glowing red light that hadn’t solidified…
Crackle crackle crackle crackle!
Those tiny carbon particles, like hailstones falling in reverse, pelted Lin Xian’s spacesuit, crackling as they hit.
...
Lin Xian knew.
These were the residues left after Ah Zhuang was instantly vaporized by the super-high temperature laser.
And the fact that these residues were raining down on him like raindrops
ant that…
he had reached the sa altitude as Ah Zhuang!
Whoosh!
The mont Lin Xian realized this, his view turned red.
He felt as though he were bathing in the fiery sun, instantly evaporated into nothingness!
He didn’t even have ti to feel pain.
…
…
“Huff…”
Back in his bedroom, Lin Xian opened his eyes and let out a sigh.
Turning to look at the clock on the bedside table, it was just past midnight, far from 00:42.
In other words, his last death was caused by the anti-air laser hitting him.
“This is too difficult; it’s simply impossible,” he murmured.
After actually trying to parachute once, Lin Xian realized that he had underestimated the complexity of the task.
The main reason was…
the height of the loophole in the defense grid was 10,000 ters above ground, while the height of Rhine Sky City should be about two to three thousand ters.
With a visual distance difference of 7,000 ters, Lin Xian had no reference points for where he was descending.
When his descent reached 10,000 ters, he had to strain his eyes just to make out the palm-sized square 7,000 ters below.
It was impossible to aim from that height!
He had no way of knowing if he was deviating from the square, even if the general direction was correct, he might already be way off.
It was like giving soone a gun without a scope and asking them to shoot a palm-sized target 7,000 ters away.
Even if you think you’ve aid, you’ve only aid in the general direction; the odds of hitting are next to none.
Lin Xian sat up from the bed and went over to his desk, where he went through the parachute plan of Big Face Cat and Ah Zhuang in detail once again.
First off, the parachute jump was from an altitude of 20,000 ters.
Then, one needed to drop 10,000 ters and glide horizontally for about 2,000 ters to arrive at a certain loophole directly above the square,
Afterward, assuming one had the luck of winning the lottery and managed to blindly hit the loophole and break through the defense, one would still need to open the parachute at an altitude of around 5,000 ters, about 2,000 ters above the ground of Rhine Sky City, to land.
Last, if everything went smoothly and the dicine for radiation sickness was successfully located, one still needed to find a safe mont to jump from the edge of Sky City, using the second parachute in the backpack to make the landing back on solid ground.
This was no longer a plan of nine deaths and one survival…
Calling it a million deaths for one survival wouldn’t be an overstatent.
No wonder all the middle-aged n beneath Sky City died up in the skies, the probability of successfully breaking through was just too small.
What’s more despairing was,
since the specific locations of deaths couldn’t be communicated to the living, the sacrifices of these people were basically in vain, and the thod of elimination couldn’t be used at all.
It was very likely that places where people had died before would still see many more die in the sa spot in the future.
“[So, what is the purpose of the intentional loophole left in the anti-air zone?]”
After summarizing his thoughts, Lin Xian was even more convinced of his previous conclusion—
[That loophole was definitely a backdoor left intentionally for !]
“Because…”
“Only I can accumulate death experiences over countless attempts and ultimately pinpoint the location of that loophole; this trial and error ability is unique to .
Even if killed by the laser, I can rember the location of my death and avoid it in the next cycle,” he resolved.
Lin Xian’s thoughts beca clearer.
A loophole that is invisible, intangible, and so difficult to locate is a puzzle that only I can solve; its specificity was just too strong.
So,
who exactly left this loophole for ?
Is it an enemy?
A friend?
Or Lin Xian of the future?
“This is getting more interesting,” Lin Xian chuckled softly.
No matter if it was friend or foe, after all, this is the infinite loop of the Dream World; what did he have to fear?
He was eager to dive back in and uncover the truth behind this loophole.
…
The next day, Lin Xian went to sleep early.
Since he had a clear goal, there was no need to wander around randomly; he went straight to where the crowds and lights gathered to find Big Face Cat.
Even though it was the first ti Big Face Cat was seeing Lin Xian in this world, he gladly accepted Lin Xian’s voluntary “death mission” and agreed to let Lin Xian parachute with him.
After all, this was a road of certain death, with less than a one-in-ten-thousand chance of return; no one stopped Lin Xian or thought he was getting an advantage.
Rather, many people respected him, thanking him for his bravery, for his sacrifice…
The next day’s parachute jump was no different from the first day’s process, except that his partner had changed from Ah Zhuang to Big Face Cat.
Both still rode the helium balloon up to an altitude of 20,000 ters, then jumped off and headed towards the central square of Rhine Sky City, and ultimately…
were burned to carbon powder by the anti-air laser, completely evaporated.
Lin Xian had a good mindset.
He had never intended to locate that anti-air net loophole in just one or two tries.
So, trying bit by bit and learning through errors suited him just fine.
