If an accident were to occur due to non-technical reasons, he could vaguely sense it. Similarly, if there was a problem with the environnt or his equipnt, he would instinctively avoid it, feeling an inexplicable sense of unease that would stop him from attempting any extre sports at that mont.
This extrasensory premonition was useful in combat. It also helped when facing harsh environnts or performing dangerous maneuvers, allowing him to avoid fatal mistakes.
With these two skills, Fang Zhen felt that taking on extre sports wouldn't be much of a problem.
His skills transford the elent of luck into sothing he could influence with his own ability, so there was nothing to fear.
Ability bred fearlessness, and fearlessness led to rapid learning. It was perfectly natural.
"At this rate, will we be able to get in the air today?" Fang Zhen asked Wu Peini.
Wu Peini thought for a mont, then said, "Alright. Normally, you'd have to practice takeoffs and landings in the simulator, but you're learning so well that I think we can go straight to an instructional tandem flight."
"Alright, let's do it," Fang Zhen said.
He rubbed his hands together in anticipation.
Today, he was going to fly.
Soon, Wu Peini went and got the equipnt, made the initial preparations, and was ready to take Fang Zhen flying.
The weather conditions today were excellent, and the airspace was wide open, perfect for paragliding.
After getting everything ready, Wu Peini brought out a tandem powered paraglider.
Fang Zhen had seen this type of powered paraglider before.
When he was a kid, he would sotis see them during the grand opening of a big shopping mall or the completion of a landmark building. A person would be sitting in a chair-like contraption, suspended in the air by a paraglider, scattering flyers down below.
Back then, Fang Zhen had been very curious, wondering what it would feel like to fly like that. Today, he finally had his chance.
Wu Peini spent a considerable amount of ti on pre-flight preparations before she and Fang Zhen got into the tandem harness.
Once they were all geared up, the instructor was supposed to be in the back controlling the paraglider, while the student was in front, secured in place.
This wouldn't normally be a big deal, but as soon as he and Wu Peini got into the harness, the height difference of the equipnt caused his head to rest right between her breasts.
Wu Peini was already quite busty and well-endowed, and once they were in the harness, their combined height difference resulted in this rather intimate position.
Fang Zhen felt it, and so did Wu Peini.
But Wu Peini was a true professional and didn't say a word.
Seeing that she said nothing, Fang Zhen naturally didn't mind either. 'We're both adults, so who cares.'
"Ready? I'm taking you up," Wu Peini said, wearing her windproof goggles.
…
「A little over thirty minutes later.」
Fang Zhen and Wu Peini's paraglider descended and landed at the designated landing zone.
Fang Zhen had a great experience.
Flying at high altitude wasn't as scary as he had imagined; on the contrary, it was exhilarating.
'Plus, there was an extra perk: leaning back against the instructor was like having a soft pillow and neck support all in one. It was quite comfortable, just a little warm.'
After they landed, support staff ca over and helped them remove their gear in no ti.
"Hey, that was a good flight," Wu Peini said, her tone gentle.
Fang Zhen smiled.
'It's said that the feeling of excitent and tension is similar to the experience of being in love. That's why people sotis mistake that thrill for a sign of romance. There's even a joke that the easiest place to confess your feelings successfully is on a high-altitude glass bridge.'
'Maybe going tandem paragliding together isn't a bad idea either?'
"How long will it take
to learn to fly solo?" Fang Zhen asked, opening a bottle of mineral water that a staff mber had given them. He handed it to Wu Peini before twisting open another for himself.
Wu Peini took the water, thought for a mont, and said, "The normal process is pretty long. You'd need three days for theory and ground handling, two to three tandem flights to get the feel of it, and five to seven days practicing takeoffs and landings under an instructor's guidance. After that, it's fifteen days of supervised flights, another fifteen to twenty days of independent flying, and ten to twenty days practicing standard maneuvers. Only then can you fly completely on your own."
"All in all, it takes over two months to learn completely. That's the normal tifra, not the seven-day crash courses so clubs advertise. That's just a sales pitch they use to cut costs."
"However, your situation is special. I think you could really learn it in four or five days."
Taking a sip of water, Wu Peini continued, "A full course at our club also takes two months. But your physical condition, adaptability, and ntal fortitude are simply astounding. Your learning ability is strong, too. I estimate you could learn in just four or five days."
"Of course, you're a special case. I recomnd everyone else complete the full two months. It's safer, and the cost is the sa anyway."
"Four or five days, huh," Fang Zhen mused.
'The Elite Dungeon's limited-ti reward has a fifteen-day window. That's more than enough ti.'
'Learning to paraglide will give
more mobility inside the dungeon, and it could even save my life in a critical mont. It's worth spending the ti to master it completely.'
"Alright," Fang Zhen said. "Let's grab lunch together, then continue training this afternoon."
…
「Four days later.」
The weather had been perfect for the past few days, with clear skies and light winds.
Fang Zhen ca to the paragliding club every day for six to seven hours of high-intensity training. He finally completed his flight training, with his newly acquired skills including assessing weather and terrain, and flying completely independently.
He could fly solo.
His relationship with Wu Peini had also progressed rapidly. The beautiful instructor had already hinted that Fang Zhen could ask her out on a date—to see a movie, grab dinner, or maybe go to a bar for a few drinks.
Fang Zhen politely told her that he was busy lately, but they could get together and chat when he had more ti.
'It's not like I'm hurting for female company right now. Maybe so other ti.'
Right now, his mind was on the dungeon in the Elite Realm.
After completing his training, he spent 57,000 to buy a decent set of paragliding equipnt from a well-known company and brought it ho.
A paraglider isn't actually that heavy, weighing between three and six kilograms, and it doesn't take up much space when packed away.
'This bit of weight is nothing. I can just put it in the Holy Garnt's case.'
On the fifth day, Fang Zhen woke up early at ho. He didn't go to train. Instead, after washing up and eating a nutritious and varied breakfast, he went to his computer room.
He opened the Dungeon Life ga.
He needed to search for a dungeon set in the Elite Realm that t his criteria.
In this new dungeon, Fang Zhen not only wanted to get the first-clear reward for an Elite Dungeon, but he was also starting to feel that his current mode of transport was becoming inconvenient. It was ti to get a new vehicle.
