Xiao Jin said calmly, "The attack just now damaged the helicopter's right wing. We need to find a place to land."
Lu Jing straightened up slightly, while the player on the other side looked on high alert: "What? What do we do then?"
"Good news?" Lu Jing looked directly into Xiao Jin's eyes.
"Although the helicopter is damaged, it is still possible to take off again as long as parts can be found and repaired."
Lu Jing repeated, "Maybe? That's too vague. It's hardly good news. Besides, this is a military helicopter. Where am I supposed to find parts to repair it for you?"
Xiao Jin's expression remained unchanged as she earnestly chewed the small bread in her mouth, her cheeks puffing out like a little hamster.
“Then we can also choose to travel by land,” Xiao Jin suggested.
"I just looked at the map. It's not far from our destination. It only takes five hours to drive to the beach."
Of course, that's assuming everything goes smoothly. Then Xiao Jin looked at Lu Jing to see what his choice would be.
In fact, Xiao Jin preferred to travel by land.
Although there are fewer obstacles to encounter when flying in the air, as Lu Jing said, she was not confident that she could find parts to repair the helicopter.
Furthermore, the appearance of the zombie bird was a coincidence. If there were other possibilities, Xiao Jin would not have proposed this method.
After a moment, Lu Jing made a decisive decision.
"Then let's drive. You little brat, get ready to find a place to park." The last sentence was clearly directed at Cen Nian.
No matter how mature he is, he's still a child. Cen Nian was so angry she was about to explode, wishing she could flip the helicopter and take Lu Jing down with her.
Unfortunately, reason prevented him from doing so, and he was no match for Lu Jing.
Xiao Jin frowned: "Why do you keep provoking him?"
"I'm happy. Isn't he just a piece of trash?" Lu Jing sneered, making no attempt to hide the contempt in his eyes.
Cen Nian, who was in front of her, clenched her hands silently.
"Huh? Where's that old man?" At this moment, Lu Jing suddenly remembered his humanoid 'pass', and everyone then turned around and went to look for Professor Chen.
Immediately afterwards, in a corner of the helicopter, the group found a person trembling.
After hiding Professor Chen, Cen Nian rushed to help Xiao Jin, and then completely forgot about him.
Professor Chen thought he was going to die, but a moment later he saw a sight he would never forget.
Whether it was the items thrown out by the players or the wings formed from condensed ice crystals on Xiao Jin's back, they all left him dumbfounded.
Professor Chen even had some absurd ideas.
Am I in the modern era? Did I really stumble into some magical world?
What's going on with them? Superpowers, cultivation, or the revival of spiritual energy from novels? Maybe the zombies and the mutations of plants and animals are also due to this.
In that instant, Professor Chen had too many thoughts running through his mind, and he even had a terrifying idea.
I wish I could get those magical items, and that flying one too, I really want to study it.
At that time, Professor Chen's fear of Lu Jing and Xiao Jin turned into covetousness.
Of course, he would never dare to reveal these thoughts to anyone; his old bones couldn't withstand any more strain.
These people are going to take me to the official safe zone. Once we get there, I can just detain them.
That way, he can do whatever he wants with his research.
Unfortunately, he was now at the mercy of others, and unwilling to accept this, Professor Chen could only suppress the madness in his eyes for the time being...
"Oh, he's not dead yet!" Lu Jing tilted his head.
Professor Chen shrank back, not daring to look at them at all.
"Heh~" His actions elicited laughter from the group of people.
"Alright, since you've made up your mind, hurry up and get down. Unlike you winged bird people, this feeling of not having your feet touching the ground is too annoying." Lu Jing stretched and yawned.
Xiao Jin: Birdman? ???
………………
The helicopter roared as it pierced the night sky.
Inside, the anxious gazes of the crowd pierced through the darkness, trying to see what lay below.
Xiao Jin was already seated in the driver's seat.
Helicopter landing wasn't feasible for Cen Nian at her current level, so Xiao Jin had to do it herself. For her, with her night vision, finding a safe landing spot wasn't difficult.
Finally, a wide-open area below came into Xiao Jin's view.
She lightly touched the control stick, and the helicopter slowly descended, approaching the tranquil land.
At this moment, the clock has quietly struck two in the morning, and the world is tightly enveloped by a thick layer of darkness, with even the starlight appearing sparse and dim.
The surroundings were deathly silent, except for the sound of the helicopter rotor cutting through the air, which sounded particularly jarring in the silence.
After looking around and confirming that there were no traces of zombies or mutated animals, Xiao Jin jumped off the helicopter.
Of course, because it's so remote, there are no cars around.
Although Xiao Jin has it in her space, she doesn't plan to take it out, as that would expose the anomaly of her space.
Lu Jing is a meticulous person with amazing insight; he is not someone who can be easily fooled.
Revealing her spatial abilities would undoubtedly attract unnecessary trouble. Therefore, Xiao Jin decided to keep a low profile and avoid any actions that might arouse Lu Jing's suspicion.
Xiao Jin had already planned ahead before deciding to land.
There's a small county town not far away, where you'll definitely find a car that meets your requirements. Just go there and look for one.
"Let's catch up on some sleep first, and go into the county town when it's light." Lu Jing looked around and was quite satisfied.
Since we're already a step behind, there's no rush.
The area was surrounded by a large expanse of rice paddies, and the open terrain made it a perfect place for them to rest.
No one objected; after all, nobody likes traveling overnight. They had no choice before because of the helicopter, but this time they could finally get some rest.
Xiao Jin was the same, after all, she was the one who always piloted the helicopter.
The group then began clearing the ground and setting up tents.
At this stage, most players can afford to buy storage space if they save up.
To prepare for any emergencies, they had prepared food, tents, sleeping bags, and other necessities in the space.
The group worked together smoothly and easily set up the tent in a few minutes. After a while, they placed reconnaissance equipment around it, leaving even the night watchmen behind.
Professor Chen was stuffed into one of the players' tents.
Logically speaking, a single tent is too cramped for two people. Cen Nian is thin and wiry, making her a good match for Professor Chen.
