Chapter 473 This scene is very stylish, but it is unlikely to be stylish.
It is hard to imagine that there is someone in this world who would regard the rotation of the earth as a courtship and expression of love to himself.
But considering that these words came from his own son's mouth, well, that's normal.
It's even quite restrained.
"He is attracted to more than just you. You are just a spare tire at most." But no matter how normal it is, Wu Min still had to complain in a bad mood.
"What? Is the Earth already preparing for a baby for me?" Lin Li said shyly, "This, this isn't good... It feels a little too fast... Mom, why don't you discuss it with my in-laws... and figure out the time..."
Looking at the shy girl, pinching the corner of her clothes with both hands, turning sideways and spinning on the ground on the tip of one foot, Wu Min——"☉_☉."
Everyone, now you know why I just said "it's even quite restrained"?
Wu Min sighed.
Who told you that the spare tire's tire is the fetus's tire?
The word you want to say should be "preparing for pregnancy".
"Get lost, don't go, don't go. Even if you want to go now, I won't be willing to take you. They'll envy me. Then I won't be able to raise my head at the mahjong table. I'm already having a headache. I'm going to have to drink tomorrow night..."
Rubbing his brows, Wu Min began to regret his decision to invite Lin Li. He waved his hand to shoo away the large fly in front of him.
"Hurry up and put your things down. I'll call you when it's done."
"Okay," Lin Li nodded, but then turned to look at Wu Min: "Mom, are you going to drive to Auntie's house later?"
"Huh? What's wrong? You are planning to go out at night and need a car?" Wu Min did not answer directly but asked back.
"I'm not sure, maybe. I might have this plan. If you want to drive, just drive away. If I want to go out, I'll find another way." Lin Li shrugged.
"No need then. I won't drive. Just ask another aunt who's farther away to take me along. If you're going out at night, be careful and don't drive too fast. The real-world road conditions are very different from those in the driving school and the test. I suggest 30 or 40 mph is enough..."
Because the spare key of the car had been given to Lin Li a few days ago, Wu Min only reminded him about safety issues.
“I know, I know—”
…
"Clang."
The sound of the living room door being closed reached Lin Li's ears through the bedroom door.
I checked the time on my phone and it was a little after six.
After sneaking to the balcony and watching Wu Min get into her friend's car and leave, Lin Li changed his clothes.
Well, I went to the bathroom and simulated three flights in a row until the beautiful dealer couldn't deal any cards.
It's not a perverted behavior, it's just that the more juice you can provide, the better. This is capital that increases the probability of completing "Task Five".
When everything is ready, spend 20 system currencies and a white light flashes before your eyes.
Perhaps due to his previous experiences, Zhu Ning had an estimate of the time of Lin Li's "return". This time, when Lin Li appeared at the bottom of the canyon, Zhu Ning was the first to notice him.
"Mr. Lin!"
"Um."
After a simple greeting, Lin Li looked through the translucent body to the two pills that were still in their infancy inside. Among them, the size of the "Qinghui Mingxin Pill" was already smaller than the "Fuyu Pill" that Mingming had taken earlier.
"The 'Qinghui Mingxin Pill' is still working," Lin Li confirmed.
"Yes, I still feel that my thinking is clear at the moment, and it hasn't reached the stage of backlash that you mentioned." Zhu Ning nodded.
"Then I hope it can hold out until we leave."
The efficacy of the "Qinghui Mingxin Pill" depends on the cultivator's digestion of the pill, and the effect lasts for 12-24 hours. Zhu Ning is a "mortal", and Lin Li is worried that the absorption efficiency should not be too high. If it is the minimum of 12 hours, then the effect will end in another three hours.
"Then hurry up. After all, theoretically, I hope this will be my last time here in the near future. These are the things I brought this time. See if there's anything useful..."
"I will try my best. At the moment, there is still hope."
Zhu Ning looked at the aircraft that was being constantly improved beside her. She understood Lin Li's meaning and nodded heavily.
…
【4.05.22】
Nearly six hours had passed before I knew it, and there were only four hours left before the forced return.
The "Qinghui Mingxin Pill" in Zhu Ning's body is still taking effect, but judging from its size, it is not long before its medicinal effects are completely absorbed.
“Gurgle gurgle—”
Bubbles appeared on Zhu Ning's body, which was probably equivalent to a long exhale for people on Earth.
The aircraft in front of him was still rough. Its outer shell was crudely welded together from relatively intact armor plates selected from the wreckage. Burrs that had not been dealt with in time could even be seen at the seams.
But with so little time, why would I need a bicycle?
Zhu Ning carefully pressed a button, and the entire aircraft lit up instantly. Blue and white arcs of electricity danced on some of the exposed wires. Several pieces of components, which Zhu Ning called vector nozzles and were taken from the wreckage at the bottom of the canyon, emitted a low hum, which then turned into a sharp scream.
In the "silent field", this kind of local component is theoretically unusable, but Zhu Ning has made it barely usable by connecting it with modern lines. Although it cannot fully exert its effect and the probability of problems is very high, the fact that it can be used is already a great improvement.
Modern electronic components, especially sensors and control chips, perform stably in the silent field of the canyon. Zhu Ning used them to build the most basic flight control system, which is relatively safe.
"Mr. Lin, clean up downstairs and put the things you want to take away into the gourd, then we will go upstairs." Zhu Ning looked at Lin Li, his voice a little nervous.
"This is for you."
Lin Li nodded, and at the same time, he took out the "parachute" prepared for Zhu Ning from the "Lihuo Yangjian Gourd" - a multi-layered nested flexible container bag filled with energy-absorbing gel particles.
Once triggered, it can expand instantly, wrapping Zhu Ning in slime form into a huge elastic sphere, relying on gel deformation and air resistance to cushion the impact.
Humans can't use it, but slimes can.
And it should have some effect.
"Okay, thank you."
Zhu Ning did not refuse Lin Li's kindness. As a man and a woman alone, they really had to take safety measures.
The two of them boarded the aircraft, and Lin Li did not participate in the operation at all - it was not because he did not understand. With Lin Li's current understanding, he had studied this aspect a lot in recent times, but the components of this world were designed with the user in slime form in mind.
All I can say is that Linli’s software is up to standard, but the hardware is incompatible.
Forced participation will only reduce efficiency. Leave professional matters to professional slimes.
The system is good in this aspect, as it can directly give you your own exclusive mold.
Following Zhu Ning's several operations, the aircraft roared—
“Buzz—boom!!!”
The violent tremor instantly caused the metal frame under his feet to groan in pain. Lin Li fixed himself in the specially designed "groove" and watched Zhu Ning shake out the last ripples.
Slime is indeed not earthquake-resistant.
"Hold on tight!"
Zhu Ning still had time to remind Lin Li, but his voice was almost drowned out by the roar of the engine.
The crude aircraft suddenly broke free from the mud at the bottom of the canyon and rushed upwards!
The thick, inky fog was torn and tumbled by the violent airflow of the aircraft. The bright beam of light from the invincible searchlight - the handheld version held by the co-pilot Lin Li - struggled to cut a path in the fog, but all it illuminated was the rapidly descending jagged rock wall covered with huge aircraft wreckage.
The ascent was extremely rough.
Due to the complex airflow in the canyon and the instability of the aircraft itself, it sometimes bumped violently and sometimes spun out of control. Zhu Ning was concentrating on controlling it, and his gel body was trembling slightly due to the overly precise operation.
But nothing happened.
Feeling the altitude increase, especially sensing that the thick fog seemed to be thinning, Lin Li felt a little bit of anticipation in his heart.
Zhu Ning was also unable to suppress her excitement. Because of her physical fitness, she could clearly feel the fact that the silent field was weakening.
So far so good!
But when you are invincible under heaven, enemies will come from heaven.
Everything is going well now, so I will come later.
After ascending and flying for more than ten minutes, the accident happened before tomorrow.
“Sizzle—bang!!!”
The harsh sound of metal tearing and the dull explosion suddenly rang out.
Around a vector nozzle on the rear right side of the aircraft, the roughly welded metal shell could not bear the combined effects of continuous shock stress and maximum thrust, and a large hole was opened.
The nozzle twisted and tilted in an instant, and the ejected airflow immediately lost its direction and turned into an irregular and violent turbulence.
Zhu Ning and Lin Li remained relatively calm.
To be honest, although the two, especially Zhu Ning, had hopes in their hearts, they actually did not think that such a sloppy aircraft could really run smoothly all the way.
Unfortunately, although he had anticipated it, Zhu Ning still felt distressed when the problem really happened.
She was very busy operating the aircraft's crude control panel with her hands and feet - that thing should be feet.
Zhu Ning seemed to be trying to rebalance the attitude by adjusting the thrust and rudder of the other nozzles.
But the effect was minimal, sparks flew from the crude dashboard and warning lights flashed wildly.
The aircraft shook and spun violently in the thick fog, and its falling trend slowed down slightly for a moment, but only slightly.
"What's going on now?"
Lin Li remained calm because he would not die even if something happened, but he was afraid that the completion of the mission would be a long way off, so he frowned and asked.
"The shell is too damaged, and the structural stress is exceeding its limit. I can't stabilize it completely," Zhu Ning replied hastily. "The metal fatigue has reached its limit. Forcibly controlling it will cause it to fall apart. I don't know how much longer it can hold out, but we will most likely stall and crash in the end."
As if in response to Zhu Ning's words, the aircraft spun downward again.
Lin Li materialized the "Invisible Sword" and made it attach to the corresponding damaged structure, forcibly maintaining it.
But after the east wall was barely repaired, the west wall was broken again. The body of the aircraft gradually became overwhelmed, and more and more places began to emit the sound of metal friction.
"How strong is this highly silent field? Can I materialize a mecha now?" This is not a long-term solution, so Lin Li asked again.
"Not enough," Zhu Ning, who could sense the strength of the field, focused on maintaining the aircraft while rejecting Lin Li's proposal.
"It's still a bit short of the required height. You can't immediately start driving the mecha after it materializes. And while you're in it, it's likely to fall quite a bit due to gravity. Without enough height margin, even if your mecha synchronization index is high, the risk is still significant."
"Can you still hold on?" Lin Li asked after noticing the changes in his body.
"I'm afraid it won't work. I'm sorry, Mr. Lin, my level is not good enough and I'm sorry to disappoint you." Zhu Ning said apologetically.
"As long as the entire aircraft can be stabilized, it can still fly upwards normally, right?" Lin Li did not show any disappointment, but asked seriously and quickly.
"...Yes." Zhu Ning looked at Lin Li and nodded.
"Okay, let me try."
Lin Li's eyes swept over the system.
"Specified formation materials (medium quality) *5".
The rewards for the task of repairing the school's electricity can be exchanged for some designated medium-quality and low-quality materials.
Combining the encyclopedia of the world of immortal cultivation left by Shan Qing Lao Deng and Deng Wen, Lin Li was able to use them to create many formations in the world of immortal cultivation.
Now is the time to use them.
Now, he didn't need to use his "strong memory" which was close to photographic memory. After searching in his mind, he found the right target.
Green Vine Solid Formation
"After activation, guided by the cultivator's divine consciousness, the array plate transforms into several green spiritual light bands that resemble flexible vines, which can instantly wrap around and bind the target.
The spiritual light band can temporarily bridge the gap and forcibly stick together and bind the target.
The intensity of the light band depends on the strength of the person controlling the formation. It can be used to bind people or objects, and spiritual energy can be injected in advance to make the formation automatic."
In fact, there are many formations that are suitable for the current scenario, especially those in the encyclopedia that are specifically used for flying shuttles in the world of immortal cultivation, which can probably solve the current problem more perfectly than this formation.
The reason why Lin Li chose this formation was that he took into account wider application scenarios besides the current one.
After this formation is set up, the materials are used up, and if you want to get the next formation, you have to rely on luck.
The formation is not disposable, and the materials can be recycled. The formation that I have selected should be able to solve the current problem and will also be of great use in my daily life or in other worlds in the future.
Without hesitation and with a premeditated plan, Lin Li immediately exchanged the required materials, materialized and constructed the formation.
Four mid-grade spiritual materials transformed into mysterious runes and were engraved on the violently shaking frame of the aircraft.
"Start!" Holding the formation plate in his hand, accompanied by Lin Li's low voice, the "Green Vine Solid Formation" suddenly started!
Buzz——
A clear sound was heard that did not come from the physical structure, but from the vibration of spiritual power.
The green runes that made up the formation seemed to come alive, rapidly spreading, interweaving, and growing, turning into tough and flexible energy roots that penetrated deeply into the cracks of the aircraft wreckage.
Countless activated green vines, with their amazing elasticity and toughness, tightly clamped and reinforced the aircraft that was on the verge of disintegration.
The harsh sound of metal friction that seemed to be unable to bear the weight and would burst apart in the next second disappeared, and was replaced by the tight buzzing sound of the energy green vine being stretched tight, like the string of an ancient bow.
The vibration frequency of the entire aircraft dropped sharply. Although it was still bumping and swaying in the violent airflow of the canyon, the main structure had stabilized. It instantly changed from falling out of control to hovering with difficulty. Then, under Zhu Ning's control, it began to climb upwards at an extremely slow but unwavering speed.
"Up again!" Zhu Ning's voice was filled with the excitement of surviving a disaster and uncontrollable panting. Although he knew that Lin Li could create something similar, he was still shocked when he actually experienced it.
"Don't let your guard down, Miss Zhu," Lin Li warned, staring intently at the cracks in the casing that were being stretched and covered by the vines. "The formation won't last much longer."
Maintaining the formation not only requires spiritual energy, but also consumes a lot of energy from Lin Li, but it is still completely stable now.
But after a long time, it’s hard to say.
"The most stable altitude is still two hundred... Be careful of the turbulence on the left!"
The energy green vine instantly flashed with an even stronger green light, wriggling like a living thing to unload the force. The aircraft was like a tough leaf in the huge waves, tilting violently and then stubbornly righting itself to continue its climbing journey.
"Two hundred meters?" Lin Li confirmed.
"Well, of course, this is the theoretical limit. Of course, the higher the better, the greater the tolerance."
"good."
50 meters.
100 meters.
Time passed with every difficult beat of the altimeter and the continuous flickering of the energy green vines.
As the aircraft continued to operate, it began to break down more and more severely, and accordingly, the energy consumption that Lin Li spent trying to maintain it became increasingly higher.
200 meters.
The aircraft was still usable, but the two men still did not move.
230 meters.
250 meters.
260 meters.
"Burned out,"
Lin Li, feeling that his ability to maintain the aircraft had reached its limit, looked at Zhu Ning and said, "Now! Zhu Ning!"
Zhu Ning nodded and pressed a button to release the restraints on the lower bodies of the two men that were securing them to the mecha.
Zhu Ning leaped towards Lin Li, and Lin Li, who was prepared, caught Zhu Ning steadily. Then, [Charge] was activated, and [Certificate of Heaven and Man] shattered automatically. Lin Li burst out with astonishing power and threw Zhu Ning into the air above his head like a shot put!
"Go away!!"
Lin Li shouted with some excitement at this moment.
As he finished speaking, Lin Li also put the formation back into the system warehouse.
The unrestrained aircraft, as if completing its final mission, was instantly pulled by the stronger airflow below. Unable to withstand the huge changes in internal and external pressure, they broke and dissipated, turning into countless fragments and parts, and were ruthlessly torn apart by the violent canyon airflow, and swept towards the endless dark abyss below.
Lin Li, feeling refreshed, stomped his feet on a large metal plate that was falling in the air as a fulcrum, and gave a push with leverage!
“——Transform!!!”
A+ combat armor!
Buzz——boom!!!
The space around Lin Li's body twisted and cracked violently like water waves. In an instant, a huge mechanical outline full of oppression appeared out of thin air!
Freed from the constraints of the silent field, all armor plates, energy pipelines, and weapon mounting points were instantly activated. After a short fall, the vector engine on the back ignited with a loud bang, spewing out a dark blue tail flame, instantly blowing away the falling metal fragments!
The cockpit door opened automatically, swallowing Lin Li who was falling along with the debris!
Buzz——
「Connection successful」
"Pilot: Lin Li"
"Mecha Synchronization Index: 80 (160%)"
Inside the cockpit, the visual neural sensor system connected instantly, and countless data streams cascaded before Lin Li's eyes. Accompanied by a notification sound, his vision instantly became clear, and the feeling of complete control over the mecha returned to his body.
roar!
The mecha let out a low roar like the roar of an engine, and the main engine on the back and the engines on the limbs burst out with even more dazzling blue flames at the same time!
The huge body was like a purple-black lightning, cutting through the chaotic air layer above the canyon, and rushing upward at a nearly vertical angle.
Inside the mecha, Lin Li's eyes were fixed on the blue-green creature in front of him that was tumbling and falling in the strong wind - Zhu Ning who was thrown out.
"Zhu Ning!" Lin Li's smiling voice resonated in the wind through the mecha's loudspeaker.
The distance between the two people was rapidly closing. The moment the palm of the mecha touched Zhu Ning's gel body, the vector nozzle was slightly adjusted, generating an upward lifting force, gently offsetting the impact of the fall.
The huge steel fingers were like the most reliable cage, holding Zhu Ning firmly in front of the mecha.
Buzz——
After holding Zhu Ning, the huge palm immediately gathered into a safe fortress posture, completely protecting her between the palm and armor, isolating her from the strong wind and turbulence.
The mecha itself maintained a stable hovering posture, with the engine on its back roaring to maintain altitude.
The dark abyss of the canyon roared below them, while the huge mecha hovered in the higher sky where the sun was just beginning to appear. The purple-black armor gleamed with a cold metallic luster and the faint blue light of its engine in the dawn light.
"Operation success, Miss Zhu, your aircraft has been honorably retired. From now on, you can take a ride home on my plane."
"Sorry for the trouble, Mr. Lin Li." Zhu Ning nodded with a smile.
The mecha lowered its head and looked at the beautiful girl in its arms.
Afterwards, Lin Li sighed from the bottom of his heart—
System, fuck your mother.
Such a handsome picture.
I should be holding a beautiful girl like a princess.
Instead of a gathering of slimes.
Your mother.

It’s the end of the month, please support me with your monthly pass.
