48 Hours a Day

Chapter 297: Miracle Descent

When the rescue team's speedboat found Zhang Heng, it was surprising to discover that the latter was sitting on a cruise ship with a dude in beach pants, naked like a dude, who was also surrounded by a few women in bikinis.

The dude who looks like a dude should be the captain of this cruise ship if not surprised, at this moment he is looking up to Zhang Heng with a look of God.

Just 20 minutes ago, Zhang Heng continuously encountered the left and right engines in the air. The powerless plane was like a bird with broken wings, and immediately began to accelerate the fall. The number on the altimeter was beating wildly. Zhang Heng tried to press the ejection button at the first time, but it turned out to be about what he expected.

His ejection device fundamentally failed at this deadliest hour, just like Anthony's lunar training machine in the morning.

Zhang Heng didn't expect to be the second target, but this is not the time to get involved in this kind of thing.

Less and less time is being left to him.

In many people's impressions, it's safer to land on the sea than to land on the ground, because the sea is softer, but actually it doesn't make much difference between falling behind a certain height and falling on the cement floor, which is what happens when the bones are crushed.

Other pilots are here at this time, and even the most ace pilots cannot survive, losing the engine power and theoretically making it difficult for pilots to do anything more effectively.

But luckily, Zhang Heng still has external power to help.

- [Betty's shell]

Until today, Zhang Heng did not expect this item to be used in this way, but this is the only game item he can rely on in this situation.

Fortunately, he is now at sea, satisfying the basic trigger conditions, and Zhang Heng has also used Betty's shell several times in previous copies, either to cross the perimeter or to accelerate sailing, during which time his control of the storm has improved, but this time the things he has to do remain insane.

Because this requires not only an unprecedented storm, but also unprecedented precision in control.

When the engine stopped on the left side, Zhang Heng already had a feeling that things might not be easy, so he manipulated the fighter aircraft according to normal flight guidelines, while also preparing for the second hand.

By the time the engine on the right also lost power, a thunderstorm cloud had appeared over the sea, the cloud was expanding wildly at visible speeds, the temperature difference between the upper and lower clouds had differentiated sharply, the water vapor molecules had risen rapidly, and the convection between the inner and lower clouds had become more intense.

Ultimately, rising water vapor molecules are shrinking in cold volume, and gas molecules under the cloud are constantly replenishing space, forming a tornado.

The fighter was instantly swallowed up by a tornado. Zhang Heng felt himself back in the Johnville human centrifuge at the Space Center. Everything around him started spinning wildly. He didn't realize that his previous training had not played a role on the way to the moon, but put it to use here first.

The air pressure inside the tornado is extremely low, the air is thin, and the oxygen mask on the fighter aircraft helped Zhang Heng a lot at this time, so that he can still breathe. The good news is that with the increase in tornado speed, the center produces a powerful sucking effect, slowing down the decline of the fighter aircraft.

Zhang Heng stared closely at the numbers on the dashboard, and he had to stay awake at all times, adjusting the size of the cyclone as the fighters descended and at altitude, with the goal of allowing the fighters to land smoothly on the water.

It's not an easy thing to do, because once it's out of control, he's likely to be thrown out first, or sucked higher.

Fortunately, neither of the two things he feared eventually happened. Zhang Heng adjusted the elevation of the head, and the fighter successfully disengaged from the tornado, sliding out quite a distance on the surface of the water. He accomplished a “man in the tornado” achievement and earned 15 game points.

And when Zhang Heng climbed out of the sinking fighter plane, he got another achievement of "successfully piloting fighter jet water forced landing”. Given the difficulty, the system gave him 25 points this time, which is the highest single point he has ever achieved, but even with 100 points Zhang Heng doesn't want to do it again.

Less than 500 metres from the point where he fell, a cruise ship witnessed his journey from crashing to being swallowed by a tornado and miraculously disengaged.

Never in the common sense of the captain did he expect anyone else to survive in such a situation, which explains why he would stare at Zhang Hengcai with the same eyes as Christ.

This is definitely a miracle enough to change the beliefs of every human being.

Zhang Heng picked up the towel and the short sleeves of the beach pants provided by the captain and thanked him. After that, with the help of two hot swimsuits, he took off his heavy flying suit and changed his dry clothes. Because it was the captain's own clothes, the size was a little too large, but it was supposed to be a vacation wear, and there was nothing wrong with him.

In the warm sun, his spirit relaxed again. Zhang Heng waited for the rescue team to arrive and chatted with the captain.

But his main focus was on the accident that had happened before.

It must be admitted that this time he did have some unexpected expectations that, in terms of the way Anthony was killed before the other party, it was clearly the people who were behind him or who were closest to him who wanted to kill him to improve his ranking. The second goal, based on this logic, was that the probability of intellectual-looking middle-aged and high school students should be the greatest, and certainly young people.

Instead, Zhang Heng was chosen as the target, and the motive was reversed. No one, except the young man, would profit from this, but this would not explain Anthony's death. The young man who was impotent had not always been very good at speaking, but he was not lying at all, which is why he did not do it to Anthony.

But Zhang Heng immediately found that he seemed to think about the problem a little too complicated. Regardless of who did it and what the purpose was, he could basically keep himself safe by taking out the young people who were impotent in advance.

They are the only players with experience in aircraft driving. Given the safety of Apollo's plan afterwards, whoever wants to squeeze into the top three must leave one of them behind. Zhang Heng does not intend to wait passively for the other party to choose a target. He must take the initiative to ensure his safety first.
