"Go to hell!!"
The enraged Yi Tian managed to reach the excavator Yuan Kou in the nick of time. In a fit of rage, she chopped off the excavator Yuan Kou's head.
"Guhan, there's still one excavator zombie left!
It's less than a minute away from the building! "Misaka Mikoto who was observing from the rooftop reported.
Although there was only one excavator zombie left, that was all the Yi Tian could do. There was still one excavator Yuan Kou left and it was about 400 meters away from Yi Tian … Even if Yi Tian doubled her speed, she would not be able to stop the excavator Yuan Kou from getting close to the building.
"There's still three minutes left before the wings can completely solidify. Even if I wait for another minute, I'm still two minutes away!"
Guhan silently calculated the time in his mind. However, no matter how he calculated, he could not buy himself two minutes.
"Forget it, three minutes is more than enough. If I just hold on for a little longer, the parts that are glued together might be able to hold on!"
Guhan gritted his teeth and immediately ordered, "Ms. Misaka, continue to keep an eye on the excavator zombie. Once it's close to the building, report to me immediately."
"Yi Tian, clear all the Yuan Kou around you … then quickly return to your sword. Thank you for your hard work!"
Guhan then ordered Yi Tian through the sword mark. She could finally leave without being surrounded by the group of Yuan Kou. Yi Tian let out a long sigh of relief. She took a sip of Du Kang wine and then drew a perfect circle with the Heavenly Sword in her hand, clearing all the Yuan Kou around her. This created a short gap where Yuan Kou could not get close to her. Using this gap, Yi Tian turned into a ray of light and flew to the rooftop. She returned to Guhan's control using the sword return method.
…
"It's getting closer. The zombie is less than ten meters away from the building. It's going to attack the building soon!" Misaka Mikoto who was in charge of observing the situation quickly reported to Guhan.
"Alright, Ms. Misaka. Get into the back seat of the hoverbike. Quick!"
As soon as Guhan gave the order, Misaka Mikoto ran back to the hoverbike. Just as she was about to get on the hoverbike, someone picked her up and placed her on the backseat.
"Mr. Guhan!"
Misaka Mikoto was shocked. She was much closer to the hoverbike than Guhan, but Guhan had returned to the hoverbike at almost the same time as her. This proved that Guhan's movement speed was much faster than hers.
"Not good!
The zombies are rushing towards us! "
Misaka Mikoto exclaimed. Without Gu Han's obstruction at the top floor's entrance, the Vitality Silks gushed out of the building like a tidal wave from a broken dam.
"Nine Blades of Black Heaven, Sword Rend!!!"
At that critical moment, Guhan could no longer hide his swordsmanship. He used one of the rare AoE swordsmanships from the Nine Blades of Black Heaven. An explosive sword aura swept across the entire top floor like a shockwave. The ordinary zombies were like sand sculptures in front of the Sword Rend. They quickly melted and disintegrated into a pile of debris. The entire top floor was instantly cleared. Not a single Yuan Kou could be seen.
Moreover, the door to the top floor was destroyed by the Sword Rend. Within a short period of time, the Yuan Kou would not be able to enter the top floor through the door.
"Ms. Misaka, hold onto me tightly. We're going to fly!" Guhan said through gritted teeth.
"I'll hold onto you?"
Misaka Mikoto was stunned. She then exclaimed, "But the electric current on my body will shock you. You won't be able to withstand it!"
"It's fine!
I knew this would happen! "
Guhan took off his outer clothes and revealed the black swimsuit underneath … Oh my god, Guhan had put on Misaka Mikoto's swimsuit. Only the wrists were cut open so that Guhan's hands could be seen. That way, as long as Guhan was wearing a swimsuit on the outside, no one would be able to tell that Guhan was wearing the swimsuit underneath.
"You're wearing my swimsuit!"
Misaka Mikoto blushed. She remembered that the two of them came out not long after she returned the swimsuit to Guhan. Guhan did not even have time to wash his clothes. In other words, Guhan had worn her original swimsuit … Misaka Mikoto recalled the water stains on his crotch area when she was reading her book. She felt terrible.
In the past, Misaka Mikoto would have electrocuted this guy to death without a second thought.
However, Misaka Mikoto was too ashamed to do such a thing.
If she had not removed her swimsuit to avoid trouble, this would not have happened. All in all, it was Misaka Mikoto's fault. It was not Guhan's fault.
"Full speed ahead."
Guhan did not know that Misaka Mikoto had so many thoughts running through her mind. He was not interested in it either. Guhan stepped on the hoverbike's electromagnetic valve to the very bottom and accelerated the hoverbike to its maximum speed.
The maximum distance from the rooftop of the building was about one hundred and fifty meters. Even if the hoverbike was a futuristic technology, it could only accelerate to one hundred and fifty kilometers per hour at most.
However, that speed was enough for the hoverbike to fly.
When the excavator zombie downstairs slammed the excavator onto the load-bearing wall, the entire building could no longer withstand the force. It was instantly reduced to rubble, just like in a television drama.
At this moment, a hoverbike with two wings jumped out from the edge of the building. According to the principles of aerodynamics, generally speaking, as long as there was a certain initial speed and the two wings were designed in accordance with the rules of aerodynamics, the hoverbike would be able to fly … Even if it could not fly actively like an airplane, it could still glide like a glider by relying on the high ground.
At that time, the hoverbike that Guhan had modified was like a glider. Although it was very awkward to control and its trajectory in the air was twisted like a headless fly, it was undeniable that the hoverbike was gliding in the air … Moreover, the hoverbike had a levitation function that allowed it to descend more slowly and glide further.
"I can finally see the monument!" Misaka Mikoto looked at the Martyrs' Monument at the foot of the mountain and let out a long sigh of relief.
Based on their current altitude and speed, it should not be a problem for them to reach the monument safely.
However, they did not know how good Guhan's landing technique was and whether he could land safely.
"Oh right, Mr. Guhan, I wanted to ask you earlier. I remember that the hoverbike should be able to fly about three meters above the ground. Why didn't we just use the hoverbike to fly over? Why did we make it so troublesome?" Misaka Mikoto asked in a puzzled manner.
The hoverbike could fly three meters above the ground, and the zombies could not fly more than two meters above the ground. There was no problem at all.
"Even though the zombies are stupid, the Paragon behind them isn't. It's three meters high, with just a few boulders, we can fall from there. I don't want to damage the only means of transportation we have to get back to Yuzhang City!" Gu Han said calmly.
"Alright, you always have a point!"
Misaka Mikoto stuck out her tongue. She was bored to death as she sat in the sky and began to observe the situation around her. As she looked around, she discovered a big problem.
"Mr. Guhan, our wings!
There's something wrong with our wings! "
Misaka Mikoto said as she pointed at the glued wings. Guhan looked down and saw that more than half of the glue had loosened. The entire wing was trembling.
"As expected, three minutes isn't enough!"
Gu Han sighed. He knew that this was a hidden danger left behind by the lack of waiting time. Under the impact of the air, the glue that was not completely firm had lost its effectiveness. From the looks of it, it would not be long before the two glass wings completely fell off.
"Ms. Misaka, we might have to make a hard landing later!"
Guhan said to Misaka Mikoto who was behind him. He then controlled the hoverbike to dive toward the monument. He tried his best to land near the monument.
When they were about a hundred meters above the monument, the hoverbike shook violently. The left wing was the first to fall, leaving only the right wing.
For an airplane, it would be better to break both wings than to break only one … If both wings were broken at the same time, the airplane would still be able to control its descent.
However, if only one wing was broken, the airplane would start spinning like a top due to the unequal air flow … This was even more fatal for Guhan's glider that did not have a shell. The hoverbike did not have a safety belt. If the hoverbike were to flip, Misaka Mikoto would be the first to fall.
"Keep!"
Guhan made a prompt decision. He kept the hoverbike into his dimensional pocket while they were still in the air. The two of them were free-falling from the sky.
"Be careful."
Guhan pulled Misaka Mikoto into his arms and hugged her tightly with both his hands. He controlled the fall with his back facing downward so that his body would become a cushion for Misaka Mikoto.
Thud!
Without any miracle, Guhan fell to the ground with Misaka Mikoto in his arms. He fell from a height of a hundred meters and hit the ground with his back on the ground. At that moment, Misaka Mikoto could even hear the crisp sound of Guhan's bones breaking.
Fortunately, he had the physical attributes of the two swordmaidens, Douyu and Yi Tian. This was a situation that would have been impossible for an ordinary person to survive. However, for Guhan, it was just a simple bone fracture … Since Guhan could lift his head when he was falling, his head did not suffer much damage.
In any case, Guhan had lost his ability to fight. With his spine broken, he could no longer fight.
Fortunately, the previously densely packed Yuan Kou were now very sparse. When Guhan landed, no Yuan Kou attacked Guhan. This allowed Guhan to summon the Heavenly Sword and have it protect him and Misaka Mikoto. Guhan entered the medical pod. According to the medical pod, Guhan would need about twenty minutes to fully recover.
Hmm, it seemed like Yi Tian needed to protect him for twenty minutes until Guhan came out of the medical pod.
