Chapter 368 Go up to the sky and fall off the cliff again
Chapter 368 Climb to the sky again and fall off the cliff
After Zhao Manying's comfort, although Zhuo Yanran was still worried, he gradually calmed down and accepted the status quo.
“Starfire, I made you laugh the first time we met.”
Until then, Zhuo Yanran had the time to look at her daughter's boyfriend. There was a bit of scrutiny in her eyes. She had seen photos from her daughter before, but seeing her in person today, she felt impeccable.
Ji Xinghuo called out respectfully: "Aunt Zhuo."
"You are very good." Zhuo Yanran was very satisfied and smiled: "There is no man in the world who is more worthy of Manying than you."
Although she cares about her daughter very much, she never interferes with her children's personal feelings and respects their choices.
Now that my daughter has found such an excellent boyfriend, I feel very happy.
"Let's have dinner together at noon." Zhuo Yanran was very enthusiastic and stood up and said: "I know a very good restaurant, which is just in time to celebrate Manying winning the league championship."
"Okay, thank you Aunt Zhuo." Ji Xinghuo naturally would not refuse.
The three of them went out immediately.
The lunch was rich and delicious.
Zhuo Yanran is over fifty, but she is very well-maintained and has a very young mentality. There is no generation gap with her daughter, and they get along like friends. Moreover, she has a high emotional intelligence and treats people and things like a spring breeze.
Ji Xinghuo behaved as usual, and did not go out of his way to fawn over her just because she was his girlfriend's mother. She did as she should.
This actually made Zhuo Yanran appreciate it even more.
During the meal, Ji Xinghuo paid attention to Zhao Manying from time to time. Everything seemed normal to her.
But he knew that his girlfriend was just talking nonsense at the moment and was just forcing a smile in front of his mother.
After a meal.
Zhuo Yanran proposed to go shopping, and Zhao Manying agreed.
Ji Xinghuo was walking with his mother and daughter. He followed and looked at the smiling Zhao Manying. He suddenly felt uncomfortable and worried about her.
While Zhuo Yanran was going to the fitting room, Ji Xinghuo asked in a low voice: "Manying, are you okay?"
“It’s okay.” The smile on Zhao Manying’s face disappeared and she said softly, “There are still 10 hours.”
Ji Xinghuo understood what she meant.
The enemy gave her a 12-hour time limit to force her to go to the True Dragon Dynasty. If she didn't go, the next step would definitely be a more vicious coercion.
The first time it was a finger, the second time it might be an arm.
Even if the head of state said so, the more determined she was not to go, the less the enemy would dare to kill her, and instead she could save Zhao Cangming's life.
However, Zhao Zangming must endure inhuman torture.
In case you get angry and vote...
Even with the advanced medical science nowadays, as long as the person is not dead, even serious injuries can be saved, and severed limbs can be restored. However, too serious injuries will block the path of evolution, and trauma will leave mental illness.
"Maybe I have a way to save Zangming." Ji Xinghuo thought about it for a long time and finally said it.
Zhao Manying's eyes were startled and he asked eagerly: "What can I do?"
"I can't tell you the specifics. This involves an adventure I encountered in the star realm." Ji Xinghuo was talking about the Void Spirit Guest, "I can't guarantee success, and it will cost a lot of ether crystals."
He doesn’t know whether the virtual spirit guest is willing to take action, nor does he know whether the virtual spirit guest has the ability to find a person in the star realm.
However, it is definitely more reliable than searching around like a headless fly.
Ji Xinghuo estimates that there is a half probability.
Zhao Manying didn't hesitate at all, "No matter how many ether crystals you need, as long as you can come back safely, I'm willing to pay. I have more than 1,000 ether crystals stored in the Ether Research Institute, and I have more than 200 at home. You can take them all."
"No, I'll go first." Ji Xinghuo shook his head.
In the past two or three months, Princess Sophia sent another batch of ether crystals, and the e-commerce platform also settled twice.
Ji Xinghuo currently has more than 4,000 ether crystals in his hand, which should be enough.
"I'll go see the head of state first, and then enter the star realm immediately." He said, "Aunt Zhuo comes out, please say sorry to her for me."
"good!"
Zhao Manying nodded solemnly, watched Ji Xinghuo hold his hand, and whispered: "If nothing can be done, your safety comes first, and you must come back. I don't want to lose my brother and lose you."
“Don’t worry, you can protect Aunt Zhuo.”
Ji Xinghuo walked out of the clothing store after finishing speaking. He took off and disappeared into the horizon amidst the surprised eyes of passers-by.
It only took a few minutes for Ji Xinghuo to see Ji Daosheng again.
"Führer, I am going into the star realm to meet a senior who may be able to find Zhao Cangming's location." He said his intention straight to the point, "In order to meet that senior as quickly as possible, I would like to borrow your Sky Control Flying shoes.”
“What senior?” Ji Daosheng was a little confused.
Ji Xinghuo shook his head: "I can't say."
Xu Lingke said not to reveal his identity to anyone, and Chief Hanqiu also told others not to tell others the secret of Tianshuiya.
As for this mysterious Shepherd Saint, even though Ji Xinghuo didn't know what method he could use to ensure that he wouldn't leak secrets, he didn't dare to try.
“Isn’t spiritual communication also possible?” Ji Daosheng asked again.
Ji Xinghuo still shook his head. Ji Daosheng looked thoughtful. He could make Ji Xinghuo fear such a senior. He immediately made a guess and became energetic: "Saint Shepherd?"
This time, Ji Xinghuo neither spoke nor shook his head.
But Ji Daosheng has already understood it.
He couldn't help but get up and walk around the office twice, his face excited and full of surprise, not because he could find Zhao Zangming, but because Ji Xinghuo actually met a saint of the Shepherd Star in the star realm!
This is a huge event that affects the world.
If the relationship between Ji Xinghuo and this Shepherd Saint is close enough... Of course, this may also bring disaster to the earth, and no one can be too cautious.
"How confident are you that your senior can take action?" Ji Daosheng wanted to determine more information through questioning.
Ji Xinghuo thought about it and said, "Half and half."
"I see!"
Ji Daosheng's eyes were filled with joy, and he immediately took out the pair of flying shoes from the drawer, "Time is running out, you set off now, I will keep an eye on the Earth side, you don't have to worry. When we get to Olympia, I'll ask Huo Keji to cover you .”
“Yes, Head of State.”
Ji Xinghuo boarded an aerial fighter plane and arrived at the Chaka Star Gate a moment later. He had already put on his flying shoes and entered the Star Gate through a special passage.
The world in front of you is distorted.
When Ji Xinghuo's vision returned to normal, he was already standing in the Stargate Square of Olympia. "Champion Lord" Hawkeji stood in front of him, and there was a team of elite Astra Militarum next to him, forming a human wall with his body to block the sight of others.
“Follow me,” said Huo Keji.
The Earth's star gate is always guarded by the Heavenly King, and all major powers will take turns sending the Heavenly King on duty. In the past two months, it has been Huo Keji's turn.
Ji Xinghuo has met him many times. Although they have no personal relationship, they are both familiar with each other.
Electromagnetic induction sweeps around.
However, Ji Xinghuo didn't notice anyone out of the ordinary. Strangers were coming in and out of the Star Gate, going back and forth between the Earth and the Star Boundary, and everything was business as usual.
He followed Huo Keji into the military camp outside the square. After the incident of the last Qianyuan Meeting, the Astra Militarum of the Asia-Pacific Community was purged from top to bottom. Every officer above the rank of lieutenant underwent spiritual interrogation and confirmed no problem.
A room in a military camp.
After letting all his soldiers go out, Hawke quickly handed over a strange crystal that Ji Xinghuo had seen before.
“Jump crystal!”
Hawke nodded quickly and said: "This jump crystal can be used three times. You can choose your own position and jump directly out of Olympia. This way you won't be followed, which is enough to ensure your safety."
"Thank you." Ji Xinghuo took the crystal and injected star power to activate it.
The transition crystal emits light.
At the same time, Ji Xinghuo's brain received the information from the spar. He could choose any direction, and the maximum jump distance was about 50 kilometers.
With a thought, he chose the direction of east-northeast and the maximum jump distance.
The crystal light enveloped the whole body.
Ji Xinghuo's eyes flashed. He felt his whole body lose weight and returned to normal for a very short moment. He appeared in an uninhabited forest, took off and soared into the sky. Looking to the southwest, he could vaguely see the outline of Olympia 50 kilometers away.
He is going to Tianhui Cliff on the Bloody Plateau, located to the west of Qianfeng Yuanlin.
I made a special circle just in case.
Boom!
With a huge sound, Ji Xinghuo's speed instantly reached 350 meters per second. On Earth, this is already faster than the speed of sound, but the speed of sound in the astral realm is 1024 meters per second, which is not even subsonic.
Ji Xinghuo continued to accelerate. The air resistance in the star realm was greater, and the acceleration was not as easy as on the earth.
However, his star power now exceeds 26,000 points, and his magnetic field flight speed has increased. With the support of the flying shoes, he quickly exceeded the upper limit of his cruising speed, getting faster and faster, and finally exceeded 1,024 meters per second. .
Humbling sound.
Ji Xinghuo finally entered supersonic flight in the star realm, drew a huge arc in the sky, flew out of the territory controlled by the earth, and turned west.
Star power is consumed quickly and restored steadily at the same time.
Ji Xinghuo flew almost sparingly, maintaining supersonic speed, and entered the Bloody Plateau in just over six hours.
Then he continued flying for nearly two hours.
When his star power was about to bottom out, Ji Xinghuo saw a huge table-shaped mountain on the horizon ahead, with a magnificent city built on the top.
The sky falls off the cliff has arrived!
Ji Xinghuo looked at the time, slowed down and rested for half an hour near the Skyfall Cliff, allowing most of his star power to recover. Then he flew up unhurriedly, directly to the Snow Monkey Tribe and showed the Skyfall Order.
Entering the tribe with ease, Ji Xinghuo met Chief Hanqiu.
“Dear guest, long time no see.”
Hanqiu, who was more than six meters high, was smiling and covered in long snow-white hair. He stood there like a hill, unchanged at all.
“Chief Hanqiu, I would like to see Senior Xu Ling.” Ji Xinghuo said respectfully.
"Please wait."
Han Qiu immediately took out the star linker and sent out a message.
The two of them chatted for a moment. Ji Xinghuo suddenly felt a huge will coming and sweeping through his body. Then a kind voice sounded in his head: "You seem to be in a hurry today?"
