Chapter 624 - 408: The Limits of Skiing—Supersonic Speed!
Wang Ye’s downhill speed was exceptionally fast.
But the avalanche behind him was even faster.
At the start, there was still a distance of dozens of meters.
But as time passed, the distance between him and the avalanche became increasingly closer.
At this moment, Wang Ye still appeared very relaxed.
He removed the sports camera from his chest and then pointed it towards his own face.
Now, the audience in the livestream room could see Wang Ye’s face.
And the super avalanche rapidly closing in behind him!
[How did such a huge avalanche suddenly appear??]
[Could it be that Wang Ye’s speed was so fast that it triggered the snow layer collapse?]
[Does this make sense?]
[Totally unreasonable!]
[Wow, it’s like a real-life skiing adventure.]
[But this is obviously much harder than in the game, in the game as long as you don’t mess around the avalanche can’t catch you.]
[And now Wang Ye’s speed has already reached 500-600 kilometers per hour, yet the avalanche is still faster!]
[This is too fast, isn’t Wang Ye’s speed already at its limit? Even at this speed, he can’t escape, what else can Wang Ye do?]
[Speed up even more? That’s obviously not reasonable.]
[I’m already amazed that a snowboard can reach 500-600 kilometers per hour, this is probably the limit of any snowboard.]
[If he can still increase his speed, I have to start suspecting he has superpowers.]
[Won’t he be crushed to death by the avalanche?]
[Don’t panic, Wang Ye is the man who survived a free fall from an altitude of 40,000 meters!]
[But the avalanche can block a person’s airways, no matter how strong Wang Ye is, he still needs to breathe, if he’s buried by the avalanche, he’ll surely suffocate!]
[Thrilling...]
[It’s thrilling indeed, but Wang Ye is almost dying!]
Yet, on the screen, Wang Ye seemed to guess the thoughts in the comments. He suddenly smiled and said, "You all think I’m definitely going to fail this time, don’t you? But I’m here to tell you, that’s not the case."
"Today, I’m going to show you what the limits of skiing is!"
As he finished speaking,
Wang Ye lowered his body further,
and then unfolding the wings of his Black Dragon Form behind him.
Boom!!!!!!!
A terrifying explosion sounded, and his wings suddenly spewed out inky black flames,
these two streams of flames provided him with a thrust like a rocket launch.
His figure suddenly became a blur,
from the initial 500-600 kilometers per hour.
Gradually increased to 700 kilometers per hour.
kilometers per hour...
kilometers per hour...
Gradually,
a sonic barrier appeared in front of him.
A faint white barrier, faintly visible in front of him.
Attempting to prevent him from further increasing speed.
But as for how to break the sound barrier,
Wang Ye was already extremely familiar.
One could say that even the most outstanding aerodynamic scientists
do not understand the traits of the sound barrier better than Wang Ye.
Wang Ye slightly arched his body, and when his speed reached the limit, he retracted the wings behind him.
Boom!!!
The next moment, he broke through the sound barrier.
Endless air currents rushed crazily past his sides,
and his speed instantly leaped to an even higher level, reaching nearly 400 meters per second.
The scenery on both sides also completely turned into afterimages,
even Wang Ye, with his current reaction speed, had to keep his eyes fixed straight ahead to ensure he wouldn’t crash into any obstacles.
Simultaneously, all the viewers in the livestream room also heard the deafening sonic boom,
but in reality, a sonic boom sounds no different from an ordinary explosion.
Most spectators hadn’t actually heard a sonic boom in real life before.
So they had no idea what they were hearing.
They thought something had happened to Wang Ye.
[What was that sound?]
[Did the avalanche explode?]
[Or did someone drop a nuke over Antarctica?]
[...You’re ridiculous.]
[Didn’t you notice Wang Ye’s speed increased again?]
[You can’t even see the scenery on both sides anymore.]
[I estimate the speed increased at least twofold from before.]
[Twofold, are you kidding me?]
[Wang Ye’s speed was already 500-600 kilometers per hour before,]
[if it doubled again, wouldn’t that reach supersonic speed?]
[Wow, it might actually be possible, supersonic speed is only 1200 kilometers per hour.]
[Wang Ye’s earlier speed, if doubled, would indeed hit the sonic barrier.]
[Wait a minute, that explosion just now... was it the sound of him breaking the sound barrier?]
[Huh?]
[Supersonic skiing?]
[Is it true...]
[Wow, it’s really possible.]
[There shouldn’t be any explosions in Antarctica, the only possibility for that explosion just now, should be from Wang Ye himself.]
[And didn’t you notice? Since that explosion, there’s been no sound in the livestream.]
[Wow, you’re right, I thought the mic was broken?]
[No, it’s just that the sound can’t keep up with Wang Ye’s speed.]
[Which means, he really is descending at supersonic speed now?]
··························
··························
Just as the livestream audience was fervently discussing Wang Ye’s speed,
Wang Ye’s supersonic skiing had quickly spread across the internet.
This time, not only athletes who study extreme sports but also many physicists joined the livestream, wanting to see exactly how Wang Ye managed to break the sound barrier.
To know that human beings breaking the sound barrier is something that has only been achieved in the last few decades, not even a century.
