Amidst the white clouds, the silhouettes of several enormous birds of prey flitted about, sometimes swooping down and sometimes circling, causing the clouds to churn and surge like ocean waves.
"Isn't it amazing? Wang Zheng, is this your first time on an airplane?"
Ling Youjie opened the cockpit door, walked to Wang Zheng's side, and asked him with a smile.
Although Wang Zheng was a gold card customer of an airline in his previous life, he still nodded when he saw the spectacular scene in front of him.
He pointed to the churning clouds and the faintly visible black dots in the distance and asked:
"Brother Ling, those must be flying beasts, right? Is it alright if we just fly over like that? Don't we need to be on guard? And as the captain, don't you have to stay in the cockpit the whole time?"
Ling Youjie explained with a smile:
"Don't be so nervous, they're all far away. Besides, our transport planes have been coated with a new type of spiritual energy interference coating, so ordinary alien beasts can't detect us."
Moreover, the transport plane is fast and large, so most alien beasts won't chase after it.
Even if the alien beasts get close, we have sonic jamming devices, and most of the flying alien beasts will be driven away, so there won't be any problems.
As for flying, I don't need to control it at all; it's all autopilot now.
All aircraft are pre-selected the safest route using computer simulations, and manual piloting is not required unless in an emergency.
Otherwise, with only four of us on such a large transport plane, how could we possibly manage?
Wang Zheng nodded thoughtfully after hearing his explanation.
Ling Youjie patted him on the shoulder.
"Relax a bit, come on, let me introduce you to my comrades."
Ling Youjie then bypassed the cargo inside the cabin and led Wang Zheng to the other side of the cabin.
"You Dazhi, Shi Shaolei, and Qiu Manling are all my partners. They are all veteran safety officers who have experienced countless flight missions."
Then, pointing to Wang Zheng, he introduced him, "This is Lieutenant Wang Zheng from the Jingnan Military Region. He's coming with us to Baoshan City in Yunnan this time."
In fact, they all knew Wang Zheng, but they had only heard that a soldier from the military region was going to Yunnan to carry out a mission and needed to hitch a ride with them.
But they had only heard of Wang Zheng's name and had never seen him in person. Now that they saw how young Wang Zheng was, they were all looking him up and down with curiosity.
While everyone was observing Wang Zheng, Wang Zheng was also secretly observing them.
You Dazhi looked to be the oldest, with a kind face and a buzz cut, making him look like an ordinary middle-aged man next door.
The other man, Shi Shaolei, was handsome, in his early twenties, and surrounded by spiritual energy. He simply nodded to Wang Zheng as a greeting, and was rather aloof.
The last one was a female awakener, Qiu Manling. She looked the youngest, short in stature, and not much older than Wang Zheng. Her dark eyes were bright and lively.
After the four of them had exchanged greetings, Qiu Manling, the most outgoing of them all, glanced at Chu Tianxing, who was resting with his eyes closed, and whispered to Wang Zheng:
"Wang Zheng, is Principal Chu always this serious? I feel an intimidating aura about him, an indescribable sense of oppression. Is his mental strength higher than mine, a mental awakener?"
Upon hearing Qiu Manling's words, Wang Zheng casually glanced at her information.
Hmm... With a spiritual energy limit of over 3000 points and a maximum mental attribute of 56 points, he's a mediocre B-level Awakener, and his mental strength is even lower than mine.
Old Chu's mental attributes are almost twice as high as hers, of course he would feel depressed.
So Wang Zheng rolled up his sleeves, revealing the red marks on his arm, and replied with a smile: "Our principal is very fierce. He likes to shock people for no reason. Look, I just got shocked today. It's still fresh."
Given Wang Zheng's physique, being flicked like that when he went out today wouldn't leave any marks; he pinched himself when he rolled up his sleeves.
However, after hearing what Wang Zheng said, Qiu Manling's expression immediately froze, and she gasped, instantly abandoning the idea of going up to talk to Chu Tianxing.
Although the roar of the aircraft engines masked the noise in the cramped cabin, the conversation between the group was still clearly audible to a master like Chu Tianxing.
However, after hearing Wang Zheng's slander, he only snorted coldly and did not come over to beat him up. He continued to lean against the cabin wall to take a nap, acting as if he did not care at all.
Wang Zheng was initially startled by him, but when he realized that Old Man Chu had no intention of settling scores with him, he breathed a sigh of relief and didn't dare to continue talking nonsense.
Little did he know that Chu Tianxing didn't want to cause him trouble; it was just that using lightning-based superpowers indiscriminately on the plane would affect the transport aircraft's flight.
If he relied solely on his physical strength, he wouldn't be as powerful as Wang Zheng, and he might even lose face, which is why he gave up the idea of beating him up.
However, Old Chu had already taken Wang Zheng's nonsense to heart.
With Wang Zheng's knack for joking around, he quickly became friends with the group.
Even Shi Shaolei, who was the most aloof among them, would occasionally chime in with a few words, and the conversation became quite lively.
If Wang Zheng's stats panel could list a character's default skills, then his eloquence and social skills would definitely be maxed out.
Just as they were quietly chatting about the interesting things that had happened during their missions, a piercing alarm suddenly sounded throughout the cabin.
In an instant, everyone's expression turned serious. Even Chu Tianxing stood up and leaned against the window, looking around.
