Dragon Clan: Lu Mingfei Doesn’t Want to Become a Night City Legend

Chapter 66: Dragon Movie 14: The Sky's Disaster Ship

All the passengers on the plane screamed in agony, and the throats of the strong current at high altitude were strangled. They were thrown all over the place, and the cabin was filled with falling heavy objects and people sobbing.

"What happened! Check the situation!!!"

Caesar's roar finally reached Lu Mingfei's ears at this time, drowning out the screams of everyone present.

But the boy had already moved.

Amidst the extreme shaking, the young man relied on his amazing sense of balance to find his center of gravity, exerted force to quickly unfasten the seat belt around his waist, then stood up and grabbed the flight attendant who was about to fall.

The graceful smile of the stewardess in black stockings had long since disappeared, and she now looked flustered and absent-minded.

She fell towards Lu Mingfei and threw herself into his arms. Her action was actually close to "protecting the passengers."

It's amazing that she has such a strong work ethic.

But when Caesar asked her about the location of the device for communicating with the captain, she just stammered and couldn't say a word. If you look closely, you can see that every inch of muscle on her white and slender neck, which seems like it can be broken with one hand, is trembling, but she can't organize any effective words.

After all, she was just a 'trained' flight attendant, not some real urban soldier, and this obvious emergency situation still made her unable to hide her panic.

"Open the cockpit door! Let me confirm the situation directly with the captain!" Caesar's face was not looking good, but as an alien with "unique abilities" on this plane, he believed that he must take action at this time, and the aircraft's operating panel and information data were the most important key points in this life-and-death moment.

The flight attendant's face showed a conflict. She certainly didn't want to let Caesar enter the cockpit. You know, that was the lifeblood of the plane. It would be really stupid to let a passenger into the cockpit without knowing Caesar's identity.

It is common sense to place all your trust in the crew when a plane crashes, unless it is an emergency.

The information asymmetry between the two sides caused the rescue time to slip away. Just when Caesar's face became extremely ugly——

"Please don't move."

An unexpected voice came.

Caesar didn't expect that he would be thrown away by an irresistible force, and the person who threw him away instantly grabbed the flight attendant's neck, lifted her up, and pressed her against the wall.

The voice was soft and calm, but the movements were rough and frantic.

That person is Lu Mingfei? ! !
It was hard to imagine that the boy's originally gentle eyes were now replaced by golden eyes, which were violent and ferocious, flowing with flaming light, like a mirror reflecting fire.

Lu Mingfei held the flight attendant in one hand and with the other hand held a scalpel that he had taken out from somewhere and placed it on her abdomen. He remained stable on such a bumpy plane and only slightly cut her skin, letting the faint bright red stimulate the girl's spirit.

Wait! Where did he get that scalpel?!
"Open the door, now."

The voice was so calm that it was creepy. The moment Lu Mingfei noticed the hesitation in the flight attendant's eyes, he drew his sword and stabbed it into the side of the other person's cheek while he screamed!
"If you can, please hurry up."

Her body was close to the flight attendant, but her whispers were like a sharp blade that scraped open the psychological defenses of the person being threatened.

The flight attendant's entire body began to tremble violently. Not only her, but even Caesar forgot the desperate situation around him for a moment and stared at the boy's profile.

The young man in front of him was so [abnormal].

The iris was faded amber, and the warm honey color had settled into turbid cold tea. The surrounding chaos turned into fragments of light and fell into the pupil, without causing ripples. It was like a coin falling into a deep well, losing all sound during the fall.

When the strong wind blew the boy's hair on his forehead, a blood line as thin as a spider's silk could be seen at the inner canthus of his right eye. A circle of gilded lines suddenly appeared on the edge of the iris, like the gold paint peeling off from an ancient scroll. The pupil contracted into an upright spindle, as if the characteristics of some cold-blooded animal were breaking through the shackles of genes.

Is this Lu Mingfei?
Caesar suddenly felt that the young man in front of him was so unfamiliar.

It seemed as if he had only now truly understood Lu Mingfei.

“Yes, yes!”

The flight attendant was obviously forced to regain her sanity by the greater shock and agreed repeatedly.

Lu Mingfei immediately let go of his hand.

It's certainly not a complete change of temperament.

Just the life as a mercenary in Night City taught Lu Mingfei that in the face of life and death, all personality, politeness and etiquette had to be put aside, and even if he wanted to apologize, he had to wait until he survived.

live.

This is the basis.

Although the incident happened suddenly, given Lu Mingfei's personality, his first reaction in this situation was——

Do something

This is Lu Mingfei’s biggest change.

He is a person who goes with the flow and habitually thinks that "if the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up", but in Night City, David Martinez and others force Lu Mingfei to take the lead in the mission again and again.

By constantly changing the inertia of thinking, it has finally been thoroughly polished into shape.

When danger comes, the boy’s first reaction is no longer to stand there in a daze.

But get moving.

Faster than anyone else!

Entering work mode, Lu Mingfei pretended to be violent, and the poor threatened stewardess tremblingly connected the communication channel between the cabin room and the captain's room.

The flight attendant first confirmed the urgency of the situation, and then spoke according to the lines arranged by Lu Mingfei.

"Please allow me to open the cockpit door. We have professional former pilots here who can assist the aircraft in the rescue."

According to normal operating procedures, the captains should have suspected that this was a terrorist attack and chose to refuse any action that might lead to the 'plane being taken over', and Lu Mingfei was also ready to use other tactics to quickly pry open the door.

But I don’t know what indicators they found in the cockpit, but they chose to let the plane go directly.

Click——

The moment the door was opened, Lu Mingfei immediately strode open the cockpit door.

Racing against time, his mind raced to the limit.

First, the three people present were scanned: the captain, the co-pilot, and the engineer. None of them were injured and there seemed to be no internal conflict, which meant that the aircraft failure was not caused by internal conflict among the crew.

Immediately, Lu Mingfei turned his attention to the aircraft's dashboard.

Then—his mind went almost blank for a moment.

The electronic screen used to display the location of the aircraft fault has now cracked from the edge. Judging from the distribution of the cracks, it looks more like an internal explosion and irreparable damage.

The aircraft's self-detection system was completely inadequate to tell the crew where the aircraft failed, so they had no idea how to rescue it!

Combined with the violent turbulence of the plane and the roaring of the turbulent airflow, which was not sure whether it was an illusion, anyone's sanity would quickly slip.

Lu Mingfei kept trying to catch his breath, but in this non-professional field, no matter how hard he thought, there was no result.

At this time, the plane has begun to lose balance, tilting highly to the left and right, and the entire plane is turning upside down like a car about to overturn. When the balanced height of the left and right wings exceeds a certain limit, the plane will no longer be able to be saved, and it will fall to the earth in a breath, turning into a flame of death.

In that situation, Lu Mingfei had less than a 50% chance of being able to use the Sian Westin to break through the window and escape from the plane, and he could rescue at most three people.

It just happens to be myself, Nono, Caesar, and Guderian.

It was just like a malicious mockery.

There is no time.

Just when Lu Mingfei was about to confirm the crash site by looking at the scene outside the plane, he heard, "It's the number two aircraft at the bottom of the vertical tail!!!"

Caesar appeared from behind, pushed Lu Mingfei away and shouted inside.

He didn't know when his golden eyes ignited like Lu Mingfei. At this moment, he was covering his head with his hands, his face turned pale and blue, and his hands on Lu Mingfei's shoulders were cold.

"I'm the former pilot I just mentioned, trust me! There's no fire on the side of the cabin! There's nothing wrong with either wing! It's the vertical tail!"

Caesar shouted. Lu Mingfei had said before that this man had a unique leadership temperament that always made people look at him, listen to what he said, and follow his leadership.

In this situation, the captain and others exchanged glances quickly.

They didn't say anything. The experienced crew had originally intended to make a judgment based on experience without anyone raising any opinions, and thanks to the 'possibility' given by Caesar, they became more confident in their judgment.

The aircraft's tail engine was shut down by controlling the instrument panel.

【Hoo-hum.】

After the faulty engine canceled the movement, the plane finally seemed to have stabilized.

Lu Mingfei finally let go of the breath he had been holding unconsciously and looked at Caesar in surprise.

"how did you do that?"

"My Word Spirit."

As mentioned before, Word Spirits are the way dragons and hybrids use their power. There are at least 121 types of Word Spirits, arranged in a manner similar to the periodic table of elements.

Caesar's Word Spirit is called [Word Spirit Kamaitachi]

The releaser forms a large field with himself as the center, and establishes complex sound channels within the field, thereby mastering all the tiny sounds within the field.

The purer the releaser's bloodline, the wider the domain. It is said that with the help of this speech spirit, the ancient dragon can listen to the whispers of humans in the nine heavens.

Caesar's bloodline is extremely pure, and he is quite skilled in using the Kamaitachi.

However, there are certain risks associated with the Kamaitachi because its hearing is too sensitive. If a loud noise occurs within the Kamaitachi's territory, it will cause irreversible damage to the ears and brain structure of the person who releases it.

At such a high altitude, Caesar was reluctant to use it, but he still released the Kamaitachi, which drilled into every gap in the plane and quickly found the problem.

Fortunately, he is a wealthy man who flies frequently and even has a private jet.

Lu Mingfei didn't expect that the foreshadowing he complained about would be accepted at this time, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

"As expected of Boss Caesar."

"As expected of you, your true nature is finally revealed?" Caesar's teasing look was obviously referring to Lu Mingfei's previous behavior towards the flight attendant. Although it was rough, it was indeed the most efficient action at the time.

Both of them saw the hidden side of each other and smiled for no reason.

But after the smile, neither of them completely relaxed.

Hybrids have dragon blood in their bodies. Although humans cannot do it, they can instinctively perceive the world that only dragons can perceive.

——The world of elements.

In that world, they could overlook the planet from a different perspective, and therefore, an indescribable premonition began to fill the hearts of the two top hybrids.

Lu Mingfei then remembered Lu Mingze's words.

——Death is coming.

Yes, if all this was the work of the God of Death, then he would definitely not stop so easily.

【Beep beep beep beep!!! !!! !!! 】

As if to confirm Lu Mingfei's guess, the alarm in the cab blared again.

"Oh my God!!!" The co-pilot exclaimed first. This man with "fighter jet experience" actually showed a rare look of helplessness at this moment.

"All the hydraulic fluid is gone!"

The disappearance of hydraulic oil means that the hydraulic system has stopped working.

The hydraulic system is the lifeblood of aircraft operation, transmitting operating instructions to the aircraft control surfaces, elevators, rudders, and flaps. Once it is damaged or stops working, it means
This means that the pilot will almost completely lose control of the aircraft.

But the bad news didn't stop there.

"Thunderstorm area ahead!"

A heavy roar came from the captain's seat.

"Damn it! When did the thunderclouds appear?! There was absolutely no warning!"

[Of course there was no warning.]

The so-called 'God of Death' is the messenger of Hell. They simply follow the law of cause and effect and take away lives that should have been lost.

The devil was sitting in Lu Mingfei's original seat, gazing at the darkness gathering in the distance.

There, the elements of sky and wind turned into heavy turbulence, violent and crazy.

"."

The demon sneered, as if mocking something.

"You still couldn't help it."

The next moment, white light flashed.

After condensing, the thunder covered the entire cockpit and even the entire body of the machine. After the pure white of lightning and thunder, everyone's vision was inevitably swallowed by darkness.

Wait until you open your eyes again.

What awaits them is despair that echoes the darkness.

"Everything. Failed."

The engineer, the last member of the crew, looked at the screen on the dashboard and made a murmur like a bird with its neck strangled.

Yes, malfunction.

It was as if it had been attacked by high-voltage current in the most brutal way. The aircraft operating system, which should have been inspected, tested, and protected countless times, now showed only complete chaos.

Alarm, red warning, sharp blast.
At this moment, everyone lost all "observation rights" and "operation rights".

"."

Lu Mingfei curled the corners of his mouth.

"Supermetal, so cool."

　What? It turns out I can still catch up with the updates if I work hard.
