Night always passed quickly. When dawn came, Dudian and Dina slowly woke up. They were like buds buried in the soil and darkness. They opened their bodies to welcome the new day’s Sunshine.
After eating the monster barbecue for breakfast, Dina didn’t leave immediately. She sat on the treetop and quietly waited.
When the clock of the mechanical watch pointed to “XII”, Dina heated up the remaining monster barbecue for lunch. After eating with Dudian, she got up and carried her luggage, looking at the distant God of war wall, her expression gradually became solemn.
“Get ready,”dina whispered.
Dudian nodded slightly and magic wings appeared on his back.
Whoosh!
Dina took the lead and took off into the sky.
Dudian grabbed Aisha and quickly caught up with her like a sharp arrow.
The two of them flew straight into the sky. In the blink of an eye, they reached an altitude of three to four kilometers. From Afar, they could see the tiny figures of ants on the god of War Wall. Dina continued to increase her altitude. In the blink of an eye, she had reached an altitude of six thousand meters. She was already surrounded by thin clouds.
The clouds looked like smoke, but it gave off a wet feeling. It contained moisture and gave off a cool feeling.
Dina continued to fly up into the sky above the clouds. The Sea of clouds around her was like cotton. They were bulging. The sky above the clouds was very blue and curved. This was enough to prove that the Earth was round.
“Keep up, full speed!”Diana whispered. Her body was like an eagle as she quickly flew forward.
Dudian’s eyes were serious as he accelerated to catch up. Rings of pale golden halos gradually appeared in his eyes. His field of vision increased as he saw that the surrounding clouds were full of moisture and countless small strange insects.
In less than ten minutes, Dudian saw that the towering god of war was standing about three to four kilometers below the clouds. It was like a giant axe that cut through the mountains and rivers.
He didn’t know if the people on the wall of the god of war could sense them.
Dudian’s eyes flashed but he wasn’t too nervous. It might be a good thing if they could sense him.
At this time, a bright red spot appeared on the upper edge of his field of vision. It spread to his eyes like a disease. Dudian looked at it and saw a bright red heat source appear in the clouds above his head.
“Thunderbird!”Dudian’s heart tightened.
Although he had imagined that he would encounter a flock of Thunderbirds and Dinah would be killed by the Thunderbird, he would take the opportunity to escape. But it was obviously too wonderful. If he really encountered danger, he might be the first to sacrifice himself to cover for Dinah.
“Go!”Dinah said in a low voice.
Her speed suddenly increased again. She drew a snow-white arc in the thin clouds around her. But from the ground, it was a straight line.
Dean’s heart sank. He raised his hand to shake the bell and pushed Aisha out.
Whoosh!
The Bright Red Wings spread out from Aisha’s back. She entered the state of full magic and turned into a drakonid. It was similar to the fire dragon alien race, but it was obviously two different species. Her wings were flesh wings, and there was no flame on her body, the red-brown cuticle layer was extremely thick and tough. Part of her body was covered with scales. It was completely different from the fire drakonid’s burning flames, but the shape was similar.
After letting go of Aisha, Dudian immediately increased his speed and chased after Daina at full speed.
At this time, he suddenly found that Daina’s strength was more than twice that of the previous two Daina. He used all his strength to barely keep up with her. However, her heartbeat was still steady, her breath control was also very stable. There was no feeling of difficulty.
Dudian’s heart sank. This was not a good thing for him. He felt that Dina might have the strength of the Lord of the Abyss!
As the two accelerated, the scarlet heat source in front of them seemed to notice them. It immediately rushed towards them like a burning cloud.
Two minutes later, the scarlet heat source appeared in Dudian’s line of sight. It was a huge strange bird with dark purple feathers. There were curved horns on its head. There were claws attached to its wings as if it was an arm, the wings were only attached to the robe.
“Go!”Diana’s eyes were like lightning. Black cuticle appeared all over her body. Her body was in a semi-demonized state. Her limbs were not deformed but her skin and organs were demonized.
Screech!
Screech!
The screeching of birds sounded. It was especially sharp.
Dudian saw that lightning was jumping out of the dark purple birds. He knew that it was a Thunderbird. He took a deep breath and mimicked Diana’s appearance. His skin was also demonized, a layer of black shell appeared on his body.
Whoosh!
Diana’s body drew an arc as she dived down.
They had been flying at full speed for the past two minutes. Their flying speed was close to ten kilometers per minute. They could fly twenty kilometers in two minutes. Even if they landed here, with their skills.., they would be able to escape before the scouts behind the wall caught up to them.
But..
Screech!
The Thunderbirds approached in the blink of an eye. They were as fast as Dinah, especially when they were diving down. All the Thunderbirds were jumping like lightning.
Boom!
A bolt of lightning flashed towards Dinah. The speed of the Lightning was so fast that Dinah couldn’t react at all. She was shocked and almost fell.
Dean’s face slightly changed when he saw this scene. He quickly asked Aisha to put away her magic body. At the same time, he retracted the splintered wings that extended out from the back of the armor. He let his body glide forward and fall.
Although the insulating conductive clothes in the armor could protect them, but the wings that were demonized were enough to be the target of the electric current. This was a problem that they couldn’t solve. They could only rely on luck.., they had to add electric balls to support the natural fall.
Once they reached the ground, they would be safe.
But how long would it take to fall from a height of 6,000 meters?
Dudian and Diana had previously calculated that it would take about 50 to 70 seconds for an ordinary person to fall from a vertical position. Their fall speed was obviously faster than that. Firstly, their bodies were denser and heavier. Secondly, there were lead plates embedded in their backpacks. According to their calculations, they would naturally fall, it would only take about twenty seconds.
Twenty seconds was very short.
But at this moment, it was a matter of life and death for them.
Whoosh!
In less than three seconds, the flock of Thunderbirds approached again. The distance between them was less than a kilometer.
Hiss! Hiss!
A dazzling lightning shot out from the Thunderbirds’bodies and hit Dudian and Diana. The lightning flashed and illuminated the sky.
Although Dudian was armed to the teeth but his body was tightly wrapped by the electric suit. He felt numbness all over his body as if there was a weak electric current flowing through his body.
The electric current exploded on the surface of the armor and pushed their bodies to fall down faster.
Dudian didn’t care about the speed of the fall. He knew that the eight batteries on the electric suit were close to saturation and this was only the first round of Attack!
Moreover, not all the Thunderbirds were launched at the same time!
A golden halo appeared in Dudian’s eyes. He could see the blood flow and skeleton of all the Thunderbirds. Soon, he saw that there was an electric current in the blood vessels of the Thunderbirds. The electric current was white and as thin as a hair. The amount was so large that it was frightening, suddenly, a bolt of lightning shot out.
It was so fast that Dudian couldn’t Dodge it at all. He couldn’t even raise his hand to block it.
He was hit again. The numbness in his body was even stronger. He even had a slight feeling of being electrocuted.
The battery was saturated!
Whoosh!
At this time, Diana’s hand speed was very fast. She took out two electric balls from her backpack and threw them to the right. The balls of lightning were extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, they flew for a thousand meters and exploded into a dazzling ball of lightning.
The scorching lightning quickly attracted the attention of the Thunderbirds.
The Thunderbirds that were close to the balls of lightning immediately broke away from their formation and flew towards the balls of lightning.
The chaotic lightning that was shot out from the balls of lightning hit the Thunderbirds that were close to them. They let out waves of joyful sounds as if they were bathed in lightning.
Soon, one of the larger Thunderbirds, the fastest, flew to the front of the ball of lightning. With a cry, it opened its mouth and picked up the ball of lightning, swallowing it in one gulp!
Whoosh!
At this moment, Dina threw another ball of lightning to the other side. Soon, it scattered the Thunderbirds by the side and many of them rushed over to fight for it.
There were about a thousand Thunderbirds in the flock. At this moment, there were about one or two hundred of them scattered. There was still a black mass of them, and they continued to chase after Dina.
When Dina threw out the electric ball, she held a few electric rods in her hand. She threw two of them at the same time, and they flew into the flock of Thunderbirds in front of her. The electric rods intersected with each other and collided with each other, instantly, a dazzling electric light that was even hotter than the electric ball exploded.
The flock of Thunderbirds immediately became a little chaotic, and they swarmed up to fight for it.
During this short break, Dina quickly took out the battery in her backpack and replaced it with the battery on the back of her electric suit. Her hand speed was unbelievably fast, and she completed it in almost a second!
Such speed was very difficult even for an abyss.
Dudian had already replaced the battery when she threw the ball. He threw out the eight saturated batteries.
Dozens of Thunderbirds noticed the eight batteries. They flew over and swallowed them.
Dudian didn’t wait for the Thunderbirds to return to their formation. He took out the lightning balls from his backpack and quickly threw them.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Lightning balls were thrown to the left and right.
The originally orderly flock of Thunderbirds was now loose and scattered. They were chasing after the surrounding lightning balls.
Dudian and Diana took turns to throw the lightning balls. Most of the Thunderbirds were distracted. However, there were still two to three hundred Thunderbirds staring at them.
Fortunately, they were able to withstand the lightning bolts but they didn’t have enough time to replace the batteries.
Dudian felt the numbness in his body again. He took out three lightning balls and threw them at the group of Thunderbirds.
The lightning balls exploded and three balls of lightning flashed.
The group of Thunderbirds slowed down as if they had hit a wall. They rushed towards the three balls of lightning.
The surrounding Thunderbirds rushed over but soon the three electric balls were swallowed by the three fastest Thunderbirds.
When the electric balls disappeared the flock of Thunderbirds once again rushed towards the two.
Dudian had replaced the third battery and threw out the replacement battery.
The batteries were snatched by the Thunderbirds as soon as they flew out.
Dudian saw that the Thunderbirds seemed to have gained experience. Their speed was getting faster and faster. The electric balls were snatched away by the Thunderbirds before they could fly far. Some of the electric balls were swallowed by the Thunderbirds before they could explode, the lightning ball exploded on its neck but didn’t cause any harm to it.
Dudian glanced at the ground. His heart sank. The size of the objects on the ground was about the same as what he had seen from the top of the god of war’s wall. It had been so long but there were still two to three kilometers of height. It meant that they had to hold on for ten seconds!
But..
The lightning balls and electrodes in his backpack had been used up by more than half!
Moreover, the Thunderbird was getting closer and closer to them as it chased after the lightning balls. It had almost surrounded them. The lightning balls couldn’t be thrown far away so the pulling effect was greatly reduced.
Screech!
A Thunderbird screamed as it rushed over. It opened its claws and tried to grab Dudian.
Dudian’s eyes flashed as he clenched his fist which was wrapped by the steel gloves. Bang! It hit the Thunderbird’s claws.
The Thunderbird’s sharp claws were broken and its body flew diagonally to increase the distance between them.
At this time, the Thunderbird was getting closer and closer. From time to time, lightning would shoot over.
Dudian saw a Thunderbird pouncing towards Haisha and hurriedly whistled.
Haisha, who was falling vertically, suddenly grabbed the flying Thunderbird. She opened her mouth and bit on its sharp blade, tearing off a piece of flesh.
The Thunderbird screamed in horror. It was in so much pain that it quickly pounced on its body. Its whole body exploded with a strong electric light.
Dean’s face changed. Although Aisha’s electric suit was different from theirs. What stored the electricity was not the battery, but a big ball of electricity in the bag behind her. But the saturation of this big ball of electricity was limited, at most, it was equivalent to three sets of batteries. Once it was saturated, it could not be replaced! This was also why he and Dinah did not choose to use the big battery.
Although replacing the batteries was risky and troublesome, if they were to repeatedly replace them, the six batteries they had equipped were equivalent to the storage capacity of two big batteries.
This big battery battery storage suit was specially made for Aisha by Dinah. After all, she did not say that they had to replace the batteries in her instructions.
After the previous continuous electric shocks, the big battery in Aisha’s backpack should be almost saturated, or even full!
While dean was nervous, Aisha’s ferocity did not decrease. She kept gnawing on the Thunderbird’s sharp claws.
Dean quickly blew out the order to stop the attack.
Aisha let go, and the Thunderbird broke free from her hand and flew away in a hurry.
Dudian looked at the big ball of electricity in Aisha’s bag. He saw that it was already saturated. His heart tightened. He was about to use his wings to hug her when he found out that she was shocked by the electricity, however, her body didn’t suffer much damage. Her hair was a bit burnt.
