Chapter 34: The City of Thunder

After half an hour of driving east through more than a dozen wide neighborhoods in Los Angeles, the towering buildings on both sides of the road began to slowly decrease, covering an unusually large area, and most of the luxury villas hidden in the fence and dense evergreen trees increased.

After a while, the Grey Bat Bus turned onto the ring road leading to the Interstate Expressway, and after a short time out of the city, the scenery outside the window had completely changed, and the original steel jungle was replaced by lakes, woodlands, and wilderness, and it was at this time that the speed of the bus began to gradually increase.

50 miles, 60 miles, 70 miles... 100 miles... As the speed increases, a set of originally folded metal wings on the roof of the gray bat bus slowly unfolds;

The wind side of the front of the car also cracked a big hole like a flower blooming, and the air compressor inside started silently and slowly, swallowing a huge amount of air into it.

After the gas was swallowed, it was accelerated by kinetic energy, and was drained by the duct to the bottom of the car hidden in the fumaroles next to the four wheels, and in an instant, with a burst of air flow, the whole bus slowly lifted off the ground and rose into the air, and at the same time, the two thick exhaust pipes at the rear of the car also changed from spraying white smoke to blue and white blazing flames.

A few seconds later, the gray bat bus rose to an altitude of thirty or forty meters above the ground, and after balancing the entire body by leaning on the metal wings on the roof, the light and flame emitted from the exhaust hole suddenly intensified, and the powerful force generated pushed the bus forward rapidly, breaking a tumbling wave of air in the air and disappearing into the suburbs of Los Angeles.

It was not until noon that the Grey Bat Bus began to descend slowly after passing through a thick red line more than 3 meters wide and stretching to the left and right of the sky, appearing boundless, made of dazzling powerful phosphor, and finally slid on the tires and resumed its land state.

For the rest of the road, the speed of the bus slowed down to an alarming degree, and it also stopped and stopped from time to time, and the traffic encountered on the road from time to time accumulated together, and finally formed a long convoy, a distance of four or five hundred kilometers, which lasted for more than ten hours, and finally drove into a fortress city in the middle of the night.

This is a city that looks like the capital of a powerful country in a magic movie at a glance, with an area of hundreds of square kilometers, surrounded by gray cement walls that are more than 20 meters high and more than 10 meters wide, and only in the south and north directions there are more than 100 meters wide city gates for passage.

In stark contrast to the imposing and imposing city walls, the buildings in the city are about three stories high, and the roof of each building is a tall or low iron pillar with a thick wellhead, which together supports a power grid that firmly covers the entire city, and the staggered flow of plasma on the grid actually provides light for the city like street lamps.

"Everyone, welcome to the 'City of Thunder'.

This is the closest human fortress city to the 'Blue Whale Plane' on the entire earth, although it has been cleared several times, it is still likely to encounter the saber-toothed wolf, two-headed dragon snake or rock worm, and dragonbill unique to the Blue Whale Plane after leaving the city, in short, for ordinary people, there is no safe place on the ground, underground and in the air.

So whatever you're doing in a hellish place like this, good luck and goodbye. Parking at the first intersection of the city, the yellow-toothed bus driver grinned, and finally said, pulling down the joystick next to him and opening the door of the gray bat bus.

"We're here," Zhang Longchu, who was sitting in the middle of the carriage, stood up, moved his hands and feet, and said with a little tiredness: "Get off the train." Along the way, he made up adventure stories that made his mind confused, and when he arrived at his destination, he actually had a sense of relief.

Sitting in the front row of him, his personality is straightforward and bold, his life wish is to become a plane pioneer, after more than ten hours of getting along, he has regarded Zhang Longchu as an idol and friend, looked at the time on his watch and invited: "Long Chu, it's so late, can you still find a place to live."

Why don't you rest with us tonight, the travel company has already booked a room, and you can go directly to stay. ”

Zhang Longchu told so many lies, and naturally didn't want to mess with his unexpected classmates at all, so he smiled and waved his hand at Mike and said, "Thank you for the invitation, man, but don't forget, this is my territory."

Before I came to the Frontier, I had already selected the mission objectives through the 'Superman Program', and now I only need to go to the company that issued the mission to receive the mission, and I can eat and live for free. ”

"Oh, so your xenoplane adventure is about to begin!" Mike waved his fist excitedly for some reason, and then sighed like a deflated ball: "I really envy you 'transcendents', who are about the same age as me, but you can already live such an exciting, thrilling and meaningful life." ”

Hearing this, Zhang Longchu walked out of the car in line and said casually: "What do I have to envy, Mike, your parents' careers are so successful, they must have the opportunity to 'awaken' when they become adults, and if they can't, they will be able to master supernatural powers."

Besides, even if you can't become a transcendent, it's not a big deal, now the customized individual weapons are becoming more and more advanced, I heard that the latest generation of individual combat mecha and C-level transcendents are not inferior to each other, and the shape is even cooler than the Iron Man in the superhero, when the time comes, you buy one and wear it, can you not show your strength in the heteroplane. ”

"Yes, hey, hey, hey..." Mike, who was walking off the bus behind Zhang Longchu, couldn't help but think of his future when he heard these words, and couldn't help but laugh.

Seeing that he couldn't stop laughing because of his few words, the corners of Zhang Longchu's mouth couldn't help but flash a shallow arc, and he waved to Barbara and the others, "Goodbye, dear students, I wish you a happy trip." He turned and walked towards the city with his salute on his back.

"Goodbye, buddy, and I wish you a good harvest on your adventure." Looking at his fading back, Mike, who had finally stopped laughing, waved his hand vigorously and shouted, and then said in an admiring tone to a medium-sized, handsome white boy next to him: "He's really a super cool, super cool guy, isn't he, Joseph."

Obviously he looks like a nerd who is not very athletic, but in fact he is a 'hard hand' who fights in the heteroplane, tsk..."

"It's really unproductive, Mike," Hearing this, the sturdy and handsome white boy did not react, and Kai Ruolin on the side had already said in a disdainful tone: "Long Chu is very good, outstanding, but you are a manly man, rather than holding saliva and envying others like this, why don't you know that you are working hard to achieve your ideals." ”

In recent months, every time they meet, they will inevitably be teased by Caroline Mike Hearing this, his eyes lit up, and he thought he had found a flaw in the counterattack, and pouted: "Excellent, excellent, wow, Karolein, you arrogant girl would use this kind of word to describe a man, oh, you, you don't like Zhang Longchu, right?"

Ha, it must be so, otherwise you wouldn't have recognized him at a glance at the bus stop, but unfortunately, people are well-informed transcendentals, and horror looks down on you as a stunted 'bean sprout', hahaha..."

He was smiling with hatred, and suddenly found that the circles under the eyes of Caroline, who had always been strong in front of him, slowly turned red, and after a while, tears the size of beans rolled down from his eyes, and he couldn't help choking, "Crying, crying, why are you crying!"

Am I wrong, even if I say it wrong, it's just a joke, really, really, Caroline you make fun of me all day long, I, can't I make fun of you, why are you still crying..."

As if she hadn't heard Mike's stammering defense, Karolen yelled hatefully: "I like Zhang Longchu...

I'm a stunted 'bean sprout'... You're right, Mike, I'm a 'bean sprout' who likes other men, and you'll never talk to me again...", and then he crouched on the ground and began to cry bitterly.

"You saw Joseph, uh, Barbara, you all saw it, did I say anything wrong, not a word, right, Caroline is crying because she is too emotional, too inexplicable...

Ah, is it the menstrual period..."Looking at the crying girl, Mike looked at his partners around him in embarrassment, making excuses for himself, but in exchange for Barbara, who was squatting on the ground and hugging Caroline and whispering comfort, gave her an angry look and a sentence, "Mike, you idiot, shut your mouth for me." ”

After being angrily reprimanded, Mike had to close his mouth, but he was still a little unwilling, and secretly said in Joseph's ear: "Look, the girls are hugging together, have I done something wrong, to be treated like this..."

"Oh man, are you really an idiot," Joseph interrupted Mike with an incredulous and pitiful gaze, "No wonder you were single before, and you've always kept this stupid picture, not to mention graduating from high school, even if you go to college, I'm afraid you won't be able to have a girlfriend..."

Here are a few middle school students who were born into wealthy families and came to the 'Blue Whale Plane' for vacation because of their childish emotions like soap operas;

Zhang Longchu, who walked into the city of Thunder City, had already found the transit target of his adventure in the heterotopic plane through the superman program on his mobile phone, the Arkansas Geological Exploration Company's 'Blue Whale Plane' branch, which covers an area of about 200 square meters;

built into three floors;

The fluorescent sign on the gate in the middle does not look like a small cement building of the No. 5 exploration company in the whole meter.
