Pet King - Chapter 1106

Nekhbet was the goddess of vultures, the goddess of the sky, and the patron of the pharaoh in ancient Egyptian mythology. She soared high in the sky and knew everything about the past and the future.

The roots of the legend of Nekhbet were very old and had existed since at least 6000 years ago.

Ancient Egyptians living in desert areas had worshipped falcons and vultures a lot. They had regarded them as their ancestors and envied them for their vast vision.

The name Fina came up with for the UAV was especially suitable.

Other elfins didn’t understand what Nekhbet meant, and Zhang Zian explained it to them. The elfins thought the name was good, so they decided in favor of it.

Richard fluttered its wings and flew curiously over to observe Nekhbet’s way of flying at close range. Zhang Zian had to warn it not to get too close. If it touched Nekhbet’s rotor directly, it would definitely break its skin and flesh.

In fact, Nekhbet’s movement was much more agile than Richard’s. Nekhbet’s left and right movements were very agile, and it was most skilled at hovering. Richard’s hovering trajectory was similar to that of an ECG.

Zhang Zian concentrated on familiarizing himself with the operation of the remote control. He had a hunch that Nekhbet would be a great help during his trip to Egypt.

He tried to control Nekhbet’s flight to the wall, slow and ready to retreat at any time, but Nekhbet did, like the instruction manual had said, stop at dangerous distances automatically without waiting for his instructions.

After experimenting with the wall, he raised the difficulty and controlled Nekhbet to fly toward the trees. The trees in the green space were evergreen coniferous trees, pine and cypress. Obstacles were difficult to detect. Nekhbet showed some hesitation compared with the previous test, but it still stopped in time.

Egypt, which was in the tropics, did not seem to have coniferous trees, and so Nekhbet should have little trouble avoiding obstacles, he thought. Of course, the dust storms in Egypt would be a problem, but he could only think about that later.

He controlled Nekhbet’s movements and vision as well and managed to look at the whole area near the pet shop.

This was a very rare experience for the house that he had stayed in for decades, the house he had thought he was very familiar with. How many people could use a different angle and height to casually observe it?

His ability to control it was becoming better and better, and he was becoming better able to synchronize what he was thinking and his controlling of the UAV. Nekhbet was ascending, and with the help of the long-range lens, everything more than a hundred meters away could be zoomed into so he could view it.

The elfins were curiously gathering by his side, looking at the monitor, all so shocked they could not close their mouths.

Vladimir saw stray cats patrolling and training in the vicinity under the leadership of the captain of a small group and the branch head. Fina saw Uncle Li’s electric tricycle parked at the entrance of the snack bar as he moved fresh fish from the market into the back kitchen basket by basket. Old Time Tea saw several old people in nice clothes playing Taijiquan calmly in the small park on the corner.

Snowy Lionet was drooling. Its eyes were fixed on a long-legged girl who had put on her ultra-short hot pants early in the morning. Galaxy looked like it had discovered the New World and found many places nearby for hide-and-seek. Famous watched the cinema level pictures with a leisurely fascination. Richard fluttered his wings as he saw two boys under the wall of Binhai University who thought they were out of sight quietly holding hands…

“Turn to the left!”

“Turn to the right!”

“Fly higher!”

“Fly downwards, let me see it clearly!”

They all wanted to see different things. They commanded Zhang Zian, saying various things and issuing opposite orders. This made Zhang Zian feel at a loss. In the end, he decided not to listen to anyone at all. He decided to move in a circle around the pet shop according to the established route and record the scenery along the road in the form of images.

People looked at eye level or down in their daily life.

When you looked down, you could see the ground clearly and would not be tripped by stairs or small stones on the floor.

At eye level, you could observe the expressions and teams of the people around the area, and could also observe the traffic situation, looking at girls and handsome men.

Nobody would look up at the sky idly, because there were only invariable white clouds and blue sky. Almost nobody noticed a drone flying quietly overhead.

He saw Wang Qian and Li Kun coming out from the direction of the boys’ dormitory building, joining Jiang Feifei at the entrance of Binhai University and coming to the pet shop together. He saw Lu Yiyun walking out of the unit building with her shoulder bag, and Jasmine seemed to have felt something, peering out of her shoulder bag and looking into the sky.

He saw Sun Xiaomeng’s private car park at the door of the pet clinic and the shutter door open to start the day’s business. He saw cat lovers lining up at the entrance of Li’s snack bar early. He saw the sea foaming, wave after wave rushing onto the beach…

He also saw the curtains of the living room on the second floor of the pet shop being lifted by the breeze and the fluorescence of the laptop screen shining for a bit before disappearing.

He also saw the small window in the pet shop bathroom being pushed open. A beautiful face yawned against the window and then retracted, leaving only speckled water stains on the glass.

He could even them, squatting in the green space and staring at the screen of the remote control, concentrating…

Nekhbet continued to rise, already reaching a height beyond Richard’s grasp of flying, as Richard was not good at flying. The silver body of magnesium-aluminum alloy could not be seen from the ground and turned into a silver spot under the rising sun.

Around half of Binhai City was in its vision, and he saw that the coastal city was awakening from its slumber like a giant.

This was really too miraculous!

Even the critical Fina had nothing to say and was completely immersed in the wonderful visual experience. At this moment, it finally understood why the ancient Egyptians were so obsessed with the worship of falcons and vultures, even more than the worship of the Cat God, because of this feeling of being omniscient and looking down on all living beings…

It was really the same as being a god!

“Make it go even higher!” it said, still unsatisfied.

Nekhbet could still continue to climb, but Zhang Zian did not let it continue for many reasons. First of all, it was the first test flight. It was already very good to fly like this, and to sail for thousands of years, one needed to be careful. Secondly, it was possible to enter the airspace of civil aviation and interfere with takeoff and landing aircraft, which was dangerous. Third, and mainly due to horizontal hovering, batteries. The power consumption had been considerable. Nekhbet needed to be allowed to land and replace the battery…

“There’s no rush when we reach Egypt. We have a lot of opportunities,” he comforted Fina. “In the endless desert, however high you want to fly it, I can assure you, you’ll be totally satisfied.”

Fina hmphed, unhappily saying, “Since you had this kind of thing earlier, why didn’t you take it out?”

Zhang Zian could only smile bitterly and helplessly. “This thing is quite expensive. It’s not like picking Chinese cabbage up on the street.”

Perhaps after they came back from Egypt, he could buy a UAV that would belong to him.
