"Beep beep!"

Time was running out for the three of them. They needed to learn the basic operation of the Peregrine Falcon 1 within the extremely short time it would take for the fighter jet to transport them, and even learn how to operate it in the "Passion Mode".

Of course, the latter only reflects the mental preparation of the three individuals.

And after the final reminder.

A bright light appeared.

The sun's rays spread across the world, enveloping the entire fuselage of the three Peregrine Falcons 1 aircraft.

The three Peregrine Falcons 1s were no longer testing in the shadows, but were openly and openly present in the sky.

The overall design of Peregrine Falcon 1 is largely based on that of the peregrine falcon in nature. It features vertical black markings at the tip of its feathers, a bluish-grey upper body, and several black horizontal bands on its tail. The underparts are white, with fine black spots on the upper breast and dense black horizontal bars on the lower breast and undertail coverts.

This is described using a touch of artistic expression.

Overall, the design of the Peregrine Falcon 1 is surprisingly good.

Compared to the clumsy iron-headed creatures developed by Ruibaote and Renxiaobai, it's already quite good.

At least the Peregrine Falcon 1's aesthetic sense is not distorted.

It generally aligns with modern aesthetic standards.

"Jiang Yexi, Su Lingling, have you finished reading the instruction manual?"

Wang Zhuoxi took a deep breath, then switched to communication and spoke loudly.

"Um."

Su Lingling's words were very prudent.

"Hehe, I'm a genius, this little thing is already mine!"

Compared to Su Lingling, Jiang Yexi's words sounded extremely arrogant.

However, in this nerve-wracking environment, such words were unexpectedly relaxing.

"Alright! Let's go!"

Wang Zhuoxi nodded slightly.

He then issued a command.

His Peregrine Falcon One engine roared to life and shot off.

Jiang Yexi and Su Lingling's Peregrine Falcon 1 followed closely behind.

It's very fast, even though it's far from the limit of Peregrine 1, it's still considered very fast.

Fortunately, all three of them had undergone extensive training and did not feel particularly uncomfortable.

The engine's roar was also unexpectedly quiet.

At least the three people in the cockpit did not hear any extraneous noise.

This is another advantage of the Peregrine Falcon 1; besides its high speed, all its other equipment is designed for surprise attacks.

You can't expect an assassin to carry around a suona (a traditional Chinese wind instrument) to play, can you?

This is absolutely absurd.

Peregrine Falcon 1 eventually flew out.

Their enemy is the first super-beast to become active on Earth—Doragri.

City C, suburbs.

The area is sparsely populated. Apart from a very small number of hikers and tourists who have nothing else to do and go sightseeing, there are hardly any people who linger here.

As for work, forget about it; there isn't even a decent house here.

However, these are all phenomena as seen by people in big cities.

For others, although this place is sparsely populated, it doesn't mean it's completely devoid of human presence.

In the suburbs of City C, there are actually some rural areas that are active.

These villages are not the kind of extremely poor villages; they were all created to make money.

The main source of income for these villages is tips from hikers and small amounts of money from tourists.

Although we're not rich, it's much better than struggling in big cities where we live hand to mouth.

At least, that's how it is for Zhao Xiaojun, an ordinary person.

Unlike those stubborn old people, Zhao Xiaojun felt that it was right for the countryside to have become what it is today.

After all, the countryside used to be beautiful and had a good environment.

But I have no money.

Although the food shortage wasn't so severe that people would starve to death, it wasn't pleasant either.

Electronic products are another story altogether, just like the daily routines of people in ancient times.

If it weren't for the fact that this place barely has a working light bulb, it would really be similar to ancient times.

But what happens after accepting new things?

First of all, everyone was full and satisfied with their meal.

Everyone here is the kind of person who is extremely picky about food; they can't even taste the finest delicacies.

They simply wanted to eat meat.

Now, being able to eat plenty of meat and fish is enough to satisfy me.

Secondly, the power was turned on.

Unlike the miserable state before, every household now has electricity.

Even every household now has its own Wi-Fi network.

I have my own smartphone.

These are all benefits of embracing new things.

Of course, those stubborn old people always felt that this was unfair to the countryside.

After all, in their eyes, the countryside is like a pure land, and although life is relatively hard, it is still within their tolerance.

And these people actually sold off their entire village for money?!

How shameless!

This is the difference between conservatives and radicals, and also the conflict between the younger and older generations.

And it grows larger and larger as time goes by.

However, Zhao Xiaojun knew that this argument wouldn't last long.

He was confident that this kind of argument wouldn't last long.

For example, all the elderly people have died.

Yes, they are not immortal old monsters; they can die too.

With the older generation all dead, the younger generation is left to do whatever they want.

Or perhaps the younger generation has all gone out to work.

After all, not everyone is as mediocre and lazy as Zhao Xiaojun.

It's a bit strange, but it does happen that some young people are working.

Of course, none of this has anything to do with Zhao Xiaojun at this stage.

This day was no different from yesterday.

Zhao Xiaojun got bored scrolling through videos, so he smoked a cigarette—something he'd never even dared to dream of before—while looking up at the azure sky.

The younger generation agrees with some of the things those old men and women say.

For example, the blue sky over this land.

The sky here is truly blue.

Most of the time, Zhao Xiaojun doesn't pay much attention to anything else; he just wants to look at the clear blue sky.

Then, count the white clouds, and this pleasant day is over.

Although some people think that Zhao Xiaojun's approach is very impractical, a waste of time, and a squandering of his life.

However, he felt very comfortable this way.

After all, as long as he feels comfortable, that's all that matters.

other people?

Who cares! Those people are just jealous of his carefree lifestyle.

Yes, this kind of Ah Q-style thinking can be really comfortable sometimes.

However, today is a little different from yesterday.

The once clear blue sky, as if it had been washed clean, now looks so strange.

Yes, that does seem weird.

A very uncomfortable feeling lingered over Zhao Xiaojun.
