Chapter 523 Leaping Across Several Countries
"Ah—ah—ah!" the fat man exclaimed repeatedly.
Xiao Zhao glanced down the cliff and saw the fat man rapidly descending towards the ground. He asked him a question with concern.
"Uh... Brother Han, Fatty seems really flustered. I hope he's not in trouble."
Han Shuo did not reply, his brows furrowed as he stared intently at the fat man below.
...
At this moment, the fat man felt like a million alpacas were running through his mind, and he quickly cursed Han Shuo's ancestors for eight generations.
He never expected that Han Shuo, that old bastard, would actually kick him down like that. He really is his best brother.
There was something he was unsure whether he should say:
He really wasn't lying; he truly does have a fear of heights.
At that moment, the fat man was so frightened that tears welled up in his eyes.
However, he knew that his life was more important, so while shouting, his hands kept touching the backpack on his back.
Finally, after about 5 seconds of freefall, he activated the hang glider.
However, he was too flustered and shook the control stick haphazardly, causing him to lose his bearings. Instead of floating in the air, the glider started spinning rapidly.
Immediately afterwards, the fat man, with snot and tears streaming down his face, spun around, fell, and squinted...
"Ah—! Ah—! Ah—! No, no!"
He was completely terrified...
...
At the same time, Han Shuo was genuinely startled as he watched the fat man spin rapidly towards the ground.
To be honest, he didn't expect the fat man to be so flustered.
He thought that even if the fat man was weak, he was still a level 4 evolved human with enhanced physical abilities, so he should be able to react quickly enough.
However, it is clear that the situation below is not as he had imagined.
The fat man completely lost his balance, and with the constant boost of inertia, he spun faster and faster, completely unable to stabilize his center of gravity.
...
Upon seeing this, Han Shuo's expression was complicated, and he muttered something under his breath.
"My God, will this kick kill the fat guy?"
He then quickly shouted into the communicator, "Quick! Fatty, you're going to die! Open the emergency parachute!"
...
After hearing those words, the fat man finally realized what was happening.
Oh right, there's also a spare parachute. If Han Shuo hadn't reminded him, he would have completely forgotten about it.
At that moment, his brain was already spinning and he was getting closer and closer to the ground.
"Ah—! Ah—! Ah!"
He shouted in panic, and in that critical moment, he didn't falter again, pressing the red button on the right side of his backpack.
The moment the emergency parachute opened, he finally stopped spinning...
...
"Phew~ Thank goodness, I wasn't killed by the fall..."
The three people on the mountaintop breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that the fat man had finally managed to open his parachute.
Clearly, the fat man's first test flight failed, but at least he's alive, which is the best outcome.
Even if the fat man can't control the parachute, his falling speed will be greatly reduced, and with his strong physique, although he will be impacted upon landing, he will not be seriously injured.
...
After that, Han Shuo and the other two ignored him and stood quietly on the mountaintop chatting.
After waiting for a long time, the fat man finally climbed back up, looking dejected.
As soon as he came up, he sat down on the ground, looking aggrieved, and shouted loudly.
"Hmph! Ugh, this is no fun at all, no fun at all!"
It's quite strange to see a burly, strong man acting all pitiful and coquettish at this moment.
Han Shuo didn't care about this or that, nor would he try to coax him or spoil him.
"Since the fat guy didn't die from the fall the first time, he probably won't die from it again, right..."
With that thought in mind, he quickly walked over, a bright smile on his face, and looked at the fat man and spoke.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, we're not afraid."
As he spoke, he called Xiao Zhao over and asked Xiao Zhao to fold the parachute in the fat man's arms neatly and put it back into the backpack.
Just as the fat man was filled with gratitude, Han Shuo grabbed him by the collar, dragged him to the edge of the cliff, and kicked him off.
"Ah—! Ah—! Ah!"
...
And so, this process was repeated again and again, and the fat man lost count of how many times Han Shuo kicked him down.
He seemed to enjoy it, and each time he would obediently climb up the mountain by himself without being urged by others.
Although the process was arduous, after a whole day, he finally learned to glide and mastered the skill of flight...
Next, the four returned to the base and began packing their luggage.
Because they're leaving tomorrow!
...
Before you knew it, the next day arrived.
Today, the five of them—Silver Hair, Blonde Hair, Han Shuo, Fatty, and Xiao Zhao—are all ready to go.
They took the tools they might need for the operation, said goodbye to everyone at the base, and returned to the mountaintop they had been on the day before.
Let's go!
Without wasting any more time, the silver-haired man nodded to the four people behind him and jumped off the cliff first.
Immediately afterwards, five hang gliders unfolded one after another and quickly disappeared into the distance...
...
The five of them then sped toward their destination.
In less than a day, they flew out of the country.
Along the way, Han Shuo and his two companions flew in the very middle of the group.
The silver-haired and blonde-haired individuals maintained a distance of 10 kilometers ahead and behind them, respectively. As soon as they spotted a flock of corpse birds, they would immediately use their communicators to notify Han Shuo and the other two to make an emergency landing and take shelter.
For their safety, the two also used their other hand to operate the drone, positioning themselves on the left and right sides of the team.
In this way, Han Shuo and the other two were completely protected.
The five of them only traveled during the day and would descend to find a place to camp in the evening, since Han Shuo and the other two needed to eat and sleep to replenish their strength and energy.
The next morning, they would find a new high point and take off again.
During this period, there were never any unexpected incidents...
...
One day, two days, three days...
As time went by, Han Shuo flew over one country after another.
These countries were not very large, and besides the hordes of zombies, he also found some scattered survivors.
However, the camps where these people were stationed were all very small, and the largest number of people did not exceed one hundred.
Han Shuo didn't find a single large survivor organization, which shows that very few people are still alive...
...
Before they knew it, they had flown to the border of the last country.
Further ahead lay the country where the mysterious old man lived. It took the five of them five days to finally arrive there.
At this moment, Han Shuofei gazed into the distance from the air and couldn't help but frown.
Because these two countries are separated by a vast ocean.
The sea stretches as far as the eye can see, with no end in sight...
