Ling Cage: I come from Hisakawa

Chapter 194 You jump! I jump!

His words drew the attention of other clerics.

The priests gripped their rubber batons tightly, looking warily at the gun in Bai Yuetian's hand, hesitant to move forward.

The Law Office, as the name suggests, is the legal and religious department of the Lighthouse.

They are not machines of violence.

The city defense troops are the ones who should be.

Therefore, they did not have any firearms.

At this moment, several ceremonial guards moved with gravity, turned around, and faced Bai Yuetian, looking menacing.

Although the law institute did not have firearms, it did have gravity bodies.

Ordinary bullets cannot penetrate the defenses of a gravitational body.

Bai Yuetian's brows were furrowed.

Now we are in trouble.

Unarmed priests are not a threat, but gravity beings are difficult to deal with.

"Let them in."

Suddenly, a clear, cold female voice came from the side.

It is Vatican City.

She walked over, glanced at Bai Yuetian and Erica, and then said expressionlessly, "Let them in. This is the Lord of Light and Shadow's order."

"Light gives birth to all living beings."

The priests murmured in agreement: "All beings follow their shadows."

The gravitational body lowered its head, and the priests parted to the sides, revealing a path leading directly to the armory.

Bai Yuetian was stunned.

Fanti slowly stepped forward, and under Erica's angry glare, she pressed her lips to Bai Yuetian's ear.

May the Lord of Light and Shadow protect you.

After saying that, she walked away to the corner without looking back.

Bai Yuetian was baffled.

This woman.
Can I go now?

Is this Charles's idea, or Vatican's own?
Is she repaying me for saving her life?
During the last ground operation, Vatican almost died, and he saved Vatican's life.

Bai Yuetian took a deep breath and led Erica into the armory. As soon as they entered, they saw rows of gravity bodies and Jessica standing in front of them.

Jessica sighed softly, then tilted her head slightly towards the gravity object behind her.

This means it's ready.

“Mark had me prepare the gravity bodies for both of you,” she whispered.

"What exactly happened outside?"

Erica is an elite pilot, but Bai Yuetian is even stronger than Erica.

These two individuals, having acquired gravity, are capable of wreaking havoc on the lighthouse.

Is Mark planning a rebellion?
“Mark is a rough guy but a meticulous one,” Bai Yuetian chuckled.

"I'm leaving the lighthouse for a while. When I come back, I'll treat you to coffee. The bag is top-notch; even Iron Man Gray hasn't had it."

When he comes back next time, he won't be alone.

Jessica was stunned.

Leave the lighthouse?

coffee?

Gray?

iron Man?
These words stunned Jessica.

Bai Yuetian walked past her and disappeared into his own gravity body.

The battery and fuel were fully charged, along with a gleaming chainsaw sword and enough bullets for a ground operation.

"That's great!" Bai Yuetian gave Jessica a thumbs up.

At this moment, Erica also activated the gravity body.

"Let's go." Bai Yuetian ran outside without hesitation.

Erica followed closely behind.

The priests looked at them in surprise.

Bai Yuetian and Erica rushed out of the armory one after the other and then rushed to the railing.

"Are you scared?" Bai Yuetian asked Erica.

One more step forward and there is no sky to rely on, and a future where one may be shattered to pieces.

"I'm scared." Erica bit her lip.

The lighthouse is suspended at an altitude of four to six thousand meters year-round, while clouds are scattered at a low altitude of several hundred to over a thousand meters.

From her vantage point, the clouds below looked like a vast white earth.

Erica said, trembling, "But I'm more afraid of losing you."

A strange feeling arose in Bai Yuetian's heart.

"Have you studied high-altitude rappelling?" he asked softly.

The other hunters can stay at the Lighthouse, betting that Morgan won't do anything to them, because the Lighthouse really needs them.

But Erica cannot stay at the lighthouse.

Because Morgan knew that Erica was close to him.

If he runs away alone, Erica doesn't know what she'll face afterwards.

“I’ve trained a few times in the simulator, but I’ve never practiced it in real life,” Erica said in a low voice.

Her voice was filled with confusion.

High-altitude rappelling is a special training program for gravity-based training, and it is extremely dangerous.

The lighthouse is so short of personnel and fuel that drivers are not allowed to practice this project in real life.

"Don't worry," Bai Yuetian comforted her.

He keenly sensed Erica's unease.

He tried to soften his tone and soothe Erica's emotions.

"I will hug you from behind."

"Keep your balance and follow my rhythm, and we'll land safely," Bai Yuetian said softly.

"Mm." Erica nodded gently.

Bai Yuetian, holding Erica's hand, stepped onto the railing amidst the puzzled gazes of the priests.

"What are they going to do?"

"Jump the tower?"

"Impossible, why would someone jump through a gravity body to get to the tower?"

Bai Yuetian turned his head and looked at Erica.

He suddenly remembered a very interesting old movie he had seen.

You jump!

I jump!

He gripped Erica's hand and took a step forward.

"Someone jumped off the tower!"

"They're really jumping! Are they crazy?!"

"Report this to the city defense forces immediately!"

Gravity entangled Bai Yuetian and Erica's bodies, dragging them down into the thick, white clouds.

A strong wind swept past their ears.

A feeling of weightlessness enveloped Erica, leaving her feeling empty. Suddenly, a strong sense of panic arose without warning, and her body began to tremble uncontrollably.

"Moonlight!" she screamed in fear.

The next second, she felt herself being embraced in a wide and safe hug.

Being in this embrace feels like having your feet firmly on the ground.

"Do not be afraid."

Bai Yuetian's voice came through: "There are a total of eighty-two deceleration gradients from here to the ground. Once we complete them all, we can land safely." "Eighty-two deceleration gradients?" Erica exclaimed in surprise. "I've only practiced three deceleration gradients in the simulator."

A deceleration gradient is approximately fifty meters.

In real-world practice, the most commonly used gradient is the single gradient, while the training limit in simulators is the triple gradient.

Eighty-two gradients?

This is a completely lethal dose!

Bai Yuetian said calmly, "It's okay. One gradient and a hundred gradients are essentially the same. You can just slow down by following my rhythm."

“Mm.” Erica nodded.

She couldn't see Bai Yuetian's face; if she could, she would know that Bai Yuetian wasn't as calm as his voice suggested.

This rising star of the UN peacekeeping force, who is always calm and composed in the face of any dangerous situation, now had a hint of insecurity in his eyes.

Eighty-two gradients, a high-altitude descent of over four thousand meters.

He never had that experience either.

He's similar to Erica; he only knows three levels of high-altitude rappelling, which is enough for a policeman, since he's not a paratrooper.

He never imagined that one day he would have to jump from a height of more than 4,000 meters, with nothing below to grab onto, and he would only have a physical body with no parachute!
He can only trust science now.

Whether it's one gradient or a hundred gradients, it's essentially the same thing: jet deceleration.

Just like someone who has never calculated 9999*9999, because they have mastered the basic principles of multiplication, they can still calculate the correct answer when they encounter this problem.

It should be possible.
call--

Bai Yuetian held Erica in his arms, bright flames shooting out from the nozzles on their bodies. Against the backdrop of the lighthouse, they looked like two insignificant little ants.

The vertically downward jet of flame effectively counteracted gravity, preventing the two people from falling too quickly and becoming fireballs due to friction with the air.

"Slow down!" Bai Yuetian whispered in Erica's ear.

The two were getting closer and closer to the ground.

Their tacit understanding is also growing stronger.

At first, Bai Yuetian needed to remind Erica to activate the flames with his voice. But in the second half, Bai Yuetian only needed to hug Erica tightly, and Erica would understand what to do.

Everything went relatively smoothly.

The pipes that release the flames are starting to give way.

Theory is just theory; when applied to real life, all sorts of problems will inevitably arise.

Frequent use of the flame jet caused the jet-emitting pipe to become excessively hot, and even through the gravitational body, Bai Yuetian could feel the burning sensation in the corresponding area.

The pipes are overloaded and could explode at any time; they should be allowed to cool down for a while.

But nobody thinks about pipe cooling when they're about to fall to their death.

Bai Yuetian could only pray that Jessica had taken good care of the gravity body and that these pipes could hold on a little longer.

call--

The sound of flames erupting rang out again, and the two of them quickly slowed down.

The clouds beneath my feet seemed almost within reach.

They are already very close to the ground, no more than a kilometer away.

If they were allowed to free fall, taking air resistance into account, they would reach the ground in about twenty seconds.

I don't know the situation on the ground.

They shouldn't be so unlucky as to fall right into the den of the Devouring Beasts, right?

"I hope there are no Devouring Beasts down there," Bai Yuetian said in a low voice.

Erica replied, "The lighthouse avoids densely populated areas when it navigates, so even if there are Devouring Beasts below, there won't be many."

Bai Yuetian took a deep breath and hugged Erica.

call--

The sound of flames erupting from the white moon rang out.

However, this time Erica's nozzles did not react at all.

Bai Yuetian held Erica in his arms, but his brief burst of flame alone could not support their heavy bodies, and they continued to fall at an increasingly rapid pace.

"Erica?" Bai Yuetian asked in confusion.

Erica replied in a tearful voice, "Moonlight, my fuel is out!"

"Didn't Jessica fill it up for you?" Bai Yuetian exclaimed in shock.

Erica, her eyes red-rimmed, said, "My gravity body is heavier than yours, and you're running low on fuel, aren't you? Let me go, or neither of us will survive!"

Yes, Erica is a modified heavy gravity body, much heavier than a standard gravity body, and consumes more fuel each time she decelerates.

In an instant, Bai Yuetian's heart was in turmoil.

They were just discussing whether there were Devouring Beasts on the ground and seemed to be able to land smoothly soon, but then Erica's fuel suddenly ran out.

call--

Bai Yuetian restarted the flamethrower.

This time, he didn't turn it on for a few seconds and then turn it off; he kept it on continuously.

The intense heat caused their speed to decrease.

This is accompanied by rapid fuel consumption.

"Yue Tian, ​​let me go. This is the only way I can accompany you."

Erica's big eyes welled up with tears as she struggled frantically in Bai Yuetian's arms, trying to break free.

This action is extremely dangerous!

Once she leaves Bai Yuetian's arms, she will become a true free fall, a giant iron can falling from a height of hundreds of meters!
The outcome is self-evident.

Bai Yuetian gritted his teeth: "Don't talk nonsense!"

The next second, the two fell into the clouds.

The surroundings were a vast expanse of white, like a fairyland, hazy and indistinct.

Bai Yuetian's mind was racing.

It will take about ten more flame bursts to slow it down from the ground.

But his fuel was running low, and now he had to support the deceleration of two people. He could only last for a maximum of six more times.

After six attempts, there were still two or three hundred meters of height remaining.

What should we do then?

Bai Yuetian clenched his fist, his face showing resentment.

He was indeed an excellent gravity-body pilot, completing seventy consecutive decelerations with Erica, but even the best pilot cannot conjure fuel out of thin air, just as a diver cannot conjure oxygen.

There are only two possibilities now.

He would hold onto Erica tightly, and they would both fall to their deaths, or he would let go of Erica and live on.

The white moonlight has a strong sense of déjà vu.

this is not.
Was this Afu's situation at the time?

Afu and Rita fight side by side. When faced with the choice of dying together or living alone, Afu chooses to live.

Bai Yuetian smiled.

He and Afu faced similar situations, but he was not Afu; he was Baiyuetian!

"Erica, I'm sorry."

"If I had known it would turn out like this, I would have let you stay at the lighthouse. At least you could have survived."

"I also have something to say, and if I don't say it now, I may never have the chance again."

"Erica"

"I like you too!" Bai Yuetian hugged Erica tightly.

Erica was stunned.

The strong wind in my ears and the fear of facing death suddenly dissipated, and the world became silent.

“Moonlight,” Erica murmured.

She stopped struggling and became immersed in this declaration that transcended clouds and life and death.

Bai Yuetian held Erica tightly and slowed down methodically.

Once, twice, three times, four times
boom!
Suddenly, a bright fireball exploded behind Bai Yuetian.

The flamethrower pipe exploded!
Before he could even last until the sixth time Bai Yuetian had calculated, his flame jet pipes gave way and shattered under the strain.

The two of them, like kites with broken strings, fell to the ground in each other's arms.
