There was not much time left for Bai Ge.

He knows it well.

In a few hours, before dawn, a large number of dangerous monsters will gather here, and I am afraid that before the flesh arrows are fired, they will be devoured by the monsters that come in droves.

airplanes

The agitation of the flesh rocket caused ripples in the waves, and the thundering beasts and bony whales continued to attack the flesh rocket, but the rocket still stood, as if all the attacks were nothing but the breeze.

"This abyssal relic has gathered so many powerful creatures by exuding an aura that attracts these monsters, they are like moths to a fire, even if they know that this place is very dangerous, they will not hesitate."

The hem of the bamboo frost was blown by the sea breeze, and she gently pressed her hair, looked at the rocket in a daze, and said.

These creatures are all tempted by the power of historical fragments, they try to devour the relics of the abyss, elevate themselves, and become creatures of the catastrophe level, truly sweeping the earth, without being bound by anything.

And this flesh rocket takes advantage of this to attract these creatures.

Bamboo Frost Fall knew that the moment the rocket ignited into the air, these rampaging creatures would become the nourishment of the abyssal relics like them humans.

In a sense, these monsters and bamboo frost descended on them, in a united front.

Although uniting all the forces that can be united is one of the Abyssal Relic Division's course of action, Bamboo Frostfall feels that he may not be able to communicate with these monsters.

The pheromones they emit are full of madness and bloodlust, as if they are completely crazy, and if they really communicate with each other, maybe the bamboo frost itself will be polluted.

The tide is surging, the stars are obscured by dark clouds, and a storm is about to emerge.

At the same time, on Bai Ge's side, Flyer 1 was completing the final assembly work.

It can be seen that the wings, which were originally useless, have been turned into aerodynamic wings, and the unfolded flaps are connected to the control sticks, which are being adjusted.

The propeller was removed, and the engine was modified with parts to look like an aero engine that no one had ever seen.

The whole car no longer has the shape of a vehicle, and now Flyer 1 is like a bird of steel, lying quietly on the reef.

Just taking off wasn't enough to meet Bai Ge's requirements.

He visually measured the distance from here to the location of the Flesh Rocket, which was about ten kilometers away, and if he wanted to take off here, before being caught up by Steel Feather and completely destroyed, the Flesh Rocket Flyer One must complete the flight of this distance in thirty seconds.

Ordinary people may not know very well that the conditions that an aircraft needs to meet in order to exceed the speed of sound are not simply a superposition of speed.

When the aircraft flies normally, the air in front of the aircraft will be pushed forward due to sound waves and other factors, and other air will disperse, but if the aircraft is close to the speed of sound, then the air in front of the aircraft will be compressed, forming a layer of shock waves, and the air pressure will rise, causing strong resistance to the aircraft, making it difficult for the aircraft to continue to accelerate, and even crashing.

Such a phenomenon that has been forgotten by people nowadays, Bai Ge knows, is called a sound barrier.

In the old era, even if human beings have flown into the sky and gained the dominance of the sky, the speed of the plane is still difficult to increase, and human beings cannot break through the speed of sound, many attempts have failed, and even many scholars once asserted that human beings cannot break through the sound barrier and will be forever confined to the low-speed world.

However, later, some scholars went through thousands of failures to finally make humans surpass the speed of sound, and then, not only the speed of sound, but also the speed of human beings, beyond the constraints of gravity, broke through the captivity of this planet, and came to the starry sky.

Now, Bai Ge needs to make Flyer 1 break through the speed of sound, so it needs absolute body strength and power performance.

There is only a limit to what can be done by relying on the animal world, fairy tales are just fairy tales after all, according to Bai Ge's feeling, although this plane can surpass the speed of sound, it may only be a short ten seconds, no, it may be shorter.

In other words, even in the best possible scenario, this plane will be completely overtaken by Steel Feather and destroyed in the flames at the same time as it arrives at the Flesh Rocket.

Even if the pilot is able to jump out of the cabin, he will be immediately torn to pieces by the air currents at that high speed, and even if he is lucky enough to survive, he is in the center of the confrontation between two catastrophic creatures, and even the demigods may not be able to escape with their whole body.

In other words, as long as you get on this plane, it is almost equivalent to the fate of death.

Bai Ge didn't tell Bamboo Frost about this.

He knew that if Zhu Shuangluo knew about this, he would definitely not let Bai Ge take the Flyer One, and even this girl might ask to take the plane together.

"Done ......"

Bai Ge sighed lightly.

In the glow of light, Flyer 1 lies quietly on the stone, its streamlined fuselage is like no one has ever seen, and it is full of a thrilling beauty.

Even if they have not seen it, they can understand that it is a trace of humanity's attempt to challenge the sky and the gods and conquer them.

Bai Ge stroked the wings, and on the side, Wilbur saw this and said.

"Mr. Heinlein, are you going to fly this plane to that rocket?"

"Yes."

Bai Ge nodded.

"In this case, this kind of thing can only be done by me, it's okay, I can be transferred from the plane, there will be no problem."

He didn't watch the bamboo frost fall.

"But will this plane really be able to safely fly next to that rocket and overtake that steel feather?"

Wilbur asked again.

"Of course."

Bai Ge nodded.

"Lies."

Wilbur lowered his voice slightly, and did not let the bamboo frost on the side hear.

Of course, Bai Ge took advantage of the loophole to cut these words out of Bamboo Frost's ears the moment Wilbur spoke, and did not pass them on.

Observing the bamboo frost of those creatures fighting each other, it sounded like the two were just ordinary exchange planes.

"Mr. Heinlein, I said that my grandfather once built an airplane and flew into the sky, and I still know this common sense."

"If you could really move that long distance, we wouldn't have to wait here to die now."

Wilbur patted the fuselage of the plane lightly and said.

"I'm afraid this plane won't be able to get to the side of that rocket safely, Mr. Heinlein, do you want to sacrifice yourself to save the others here?"

“...... Even so, I'm the only one here who can fly it, the others don't know how to fly the plane, and I'm an upgrader, stronger than everyone else present, and I can survive by exploiting the loopholes. ”

Bai Ge was a little helpless.

He didn't really board the plane with the idea of being a hero.

No one really acts at the expense of themselves.

If you can, of course Bai Ge wants everyone to fight monsters and upgrade happily together, and easily solve the big problems of the critical world.

But in the current situation, he is the only candidate.

Using the Trojan Horse of Rebellion, the Animal World, and the like, Bai Ge can try to escape at the last time to avoid the battle between the two natural disasters.

Although this is extremely difficult, almost impossible, but if it were someone else, Bai Ge felt that it was completely impossible to escape.

Moreover, only Bai Ge, who has the knowledge of Eris civilization in his head, can fly an airplane.

Therefore, Bai Ge had no other choice.

"Mr. Heinlein...... Haven't you thought about letting someone else do it? ”

Wilbur asked.

"Actually, I've always thought it was strange that on this journey, once something that needs to be deeply dangerous, you always go ahead by yourself, why is this happening?"

For the freedom-advocating Pan-Western Sea, the value of an individual's life is the highest, which is why the actions of the former Speaker Randolph Woodstock caused so much anger.

For the Holy Alliance, the existence of human beings is the original sin, and human beings cannot escape this evil by death, so in the Holy Alliance, suicide is also illegal, and as for self-sacrifice or something, it is even more nonsense.

Wilbur felt that the Mr. Arthur Heinlein in front of him had extremely strong self-sacrificing tendencies, and often seemed to put life and death on the line.

It's fine if it's for the sake of familiar people, but now, these contestants hardly know him well, Bai Ge, who could have relied on himself to leave here, why would he choose to stay, and even choose a way close to self-sacrifice to rescue these unknown people.

Wilbur didn't understand.

"Probably, because I've been saved by others like this."

Bai Ge smiled, and some figures appeared in front of him.

"Mr. Heinlein, I think I can fly this plane to accomplish this mission."

Wilbur didn't quite understand, but he said it anyway.

"You?"

Bai Ge glanced at Wilbur.

"My grandfather taught me how to fly an airplane, and I learned it when I was a kid before the car was converted to what it is now."

Wilbur explained.

“...... But that's certainly not the same as this one. ”

Bai Ge didn't know whether to laugh or not.

The plane in Wilbur's grandfather's photo is obviously the oldest biplane propeller aircraft, and it may even rely on the pilot's own weight adjustment to balance, and it is the most primitive aircraft.

But at this moment, what Bai Ge made is the fastest aircraft that can break through the speed of sound, although there is no avionics, and the operation method is similar to that of ordinary aircraft, but Bai Ge does not think that it is similar to the "plane" that Wilbur flew when he was a child.

What's more, Wilbur is just an ordinary person, even Bai Ge may fly the plane and never return, if Wilbur goes up, he will definitely not be able to come back.

Bai Ge wouldn't let Wilbur do that.

"I'm a fast learner."

Wilbur was a little reluctant.

"That's not the problem."

Bai Ge didn't know how to explain it.

"It's not a toy, and if you don't succeed in driving, then all our efforts will be in vain, understand?"

He admonished bitterly.

"I understand ......"

Wilbur's expression darkened for a moment.

"I just hope to be able to fulfill my last wish."

"One last wish?"

Bai Ge frowned slightly.

A not-so-good premonition came to him, and Bai Ge immediately swept Wilbur's body with an assassin's vision, which he had never observed in such detail before.

However, Bai Ge soon found that there was no terminal illness or death signs he expected, and Wilbur, a young man, was very healthy.

Well, probably except for a little kidney deficiency.

"Actually, when I met Mr. Wu Yong at that time, I was a little emotional."

Wilbur smiled bitterly.

"I didn't expect anyone with the same idea as me to come to the competition."

From his bosom, he pulled out the notebook with a crumpled cover.

The first page of the notebook is a picture of Wilbur's grandfather with Flyer One.

And in the back, there are a lot of cluttered, notes about the design of the aircraft.

and then to the back, it is a very solemn few words, "bucket list".

On this, some trivial things are recorded in detail.

Eat one of the super spicy pies in town.

Confess to Miss Aisha at the bakery next door.

Kick Simon's vicious dog.

Leave the town and go to a foreign country.

See the sea.

In this way, there are very personal, trivial things, and some longing for wonders and the vast world.

After flipping through a few pages of notes with ticks and crosses, Bai Ge saw a sentence.

Take part in a marathon.

"What is this?"

Bai Ge vaguely remembered that there was a similar movie in the old days, that is, two terminally ill patients tried to fulfill their last wish at the end of their lives, but Wilbur was so young and healthy, why did he write this.

"Mr. Heinlein, do you know that in my town, our family is a complete joke, because my grandfather said that he flew into the sky, and he said that the dragon with burning wings had a scar on his eye, and the people in the town said that he was crazy, and even my father thought that my grandfather was a fool."

Wilbur sighed with emotion.

"But I believe in Grandpa, I believe he really flew and really met that dragon."

"I knew that if I continued to stay in the town, I would only live a mediocre life, so I left the town in the car that my grandfather left behind, I wanted to participate in a marathon, I wanted to have a legendary adventure, and of course, I also knew that at my level, I could die halfway, so I designed a bucket list to be able to do these things before I die, and leave no regrets."

To put it simply, Wilbur's journey is an adventure towards death in order to escape from the ordinary and chase the legend.

"And now, Mr. Heinlein, I have the opportunity to witness the Feather of Steel, to prove that my grandfather is not a liar and a madman, and I wish I could fly Flyer One and see it all with my own eyes."

Wilbur said with some excitement.

But Bai Ge simply flipped through the notebook and gently tapped Wilbur's head with it.

"Stupid."
