Release that Witch - Chapter 1424
[Chapter 1381 Forza Motorsport]
After crossing the Cage Mountain, the three turned to the west and headed towards the Impassable Mountain Range.
In less than half an hour, Maggie was the first to lose.
In an airspace of 1,500 meters, Phoenix easily flew at a speed of 400 kilometers per hour with its two engines.
Although Maggie’s petrel form can also reach this speed, she can only last for a short while. Facing the tireless new fourteen-cylinder engine, it will be a matter of time before she is thrown away.
“How?” Tilly covered her mouth and said.
“…I, I can still fly… Chirp!” Maggie over there was panting.
“You have tried your best, let me do it next.”
Lightning embraced the partner who was full of disbelief, and took over the second stage of the competition.
One person and one machine launched a new chase in the gray sky.
The scenery under his feet shrank and shrunk, and the mountains that separated the human kingdom gradually became a winding ink line. Tilly could see the red mist trickling down from the spine of the mainland in the distance, flowing over Eternal Winter and Wolf Heart, like A cloudy barrier.
The earth in the barrier has undoubtedly been filled with scarlet, but as long as it can reach the sky, it will be able to see the true appearance of the world again.
“Is this your limit?” Lightning’s voice sounded, “I can fly far faster than this!”
In terms of flying speed alone, the opponent’s ability is indeed unmatched, even if he has the ability to teleport The powerful Lord of the Vault of Heaven has also suffered in her hands.
But for Tilly, winning or losing is not the most important thing.
It is already a pleasure to drive this huge but flexible machine to the limit of its performance.
She withdrew her overlooking gaze, smiled slightly, pulled up the nose, and flew towards a higher airspace.
Lightning also followed, and remained at a position about 100 meters in front of the plane.
According to the introduction in the instruction manual, the Phoenix has been optimized by the technology of the dream world, and the key parts are also processed by Anna herself. Kilometers per hour, the maximum range exceeds 1,500 kilometers, and the double-row radial engines are also equipped with a turbine system, so that its performance will not be greatly reduced when flying in an airspace above 3,000 meters. This is mass production Things the model can’t do.
But this is not the biggest feature of the Phoenix.
Its body structure has been strengthened by Candlelight and Doris. The strength and durability can be said to be higher than the material itself. It can be regarded as the first aircraft that combines industrial technology and magic power.
Tilly knew that the propeller was most efficient at low speeds, and as the speed increased, its propulsion efficiency would decrease rapidly, so it was almost impossible to touch the back of the lightning with its own power alone.
She must rely on the help of other forces.
After pulling up to a high altitude far away from the clouds in one breath, Tilly slammed the accelerator to the maximum and pressed the joystick hard.
The engine suddenly made a high-pitched roar!
The Phoenix turned sharply and entered a dive state.
In order to keep herself at the forefront, Lightning also adjusted the direction and fell quickly. Just to avoid mutual influence, she pulled the horizontal distance to about one kilometer, and the vertical distance remained unchanged by a hundred meters—at this height and speed Next, the “light film” of magic coherence is already very obvious, and shining ripples form a protective layer around her to prevent her from being affected by the cold wind and low pressure.
There is no doubt that the magic power consumption rate of the lightning in the state is much faster than that of normal flight.
Roland even mentioned during the ability test that the reason why Lightning cannot fly at supersonic speed for a long time is probably not because the flight itself requires too much magic power, but because the consumption of magic power synchronization is greatly increased when the body is in an extremely short environment. .
Therefore, she rarely enters the speed of sound during normal patrols.
For witches, it is very dangerous to consume mana at will.
Of course, Tilly is not feeling very well at the moment, the thin air in the sky makes it very difficult for her to breathe, the full speed of the engine and the gust of wind make the noise and tremors in the cockpit rise sharply, without the protection of magic power synchronization, she can only Rely on the body to hold on.
According to the airspeed indicator, the Phoenix has already approached a speed of 800 kilometers per hour.
This greatly exceeds the upper limit of its extreme speed.
Although Lightning remained steady in front of the nose, he had no time to talk to her with the Sigil of Listening.
That’s right, what Tilly wants to borrow is gravity.
When flying a biplane before, she discovered that when the accumulated altitude is converted into speed at one go, she can easily break through the limit of the aircraft.
However, the risks brought by this overspeed cannot be ignored. At least it cannot be pulled up again, and at worst it will disintegrate in the air.
If she hadn’t been able to perceive that critical point with her ability, she would never have boldly adopted a dive to increase speed during the test flight.
But even so, the chances of catching up with Lightning are slim.
She remembered that Roland said that limited by the principle of propeller blades, piston aircraft would have to pay a huge price to exceed the speed of sound.
Lightning can break through the sound barrier at any time, and the gap between the two is not at the same level.
So she also needs help with other things.
As the altitude dropped rapidly, the dense dark clouds entrenched in the airspace of 2,500 meters hit the two of them like the ground.
The Phoenix roared into the dark clouds, splashing a “pillar of fog” on the clouds!
At this time, the speed of the plane had exceeded 900 kilometers per hour, and the tremors began to spread from the body to the wings. She could feel the wings cutting through the viscous airflow in front like a blade. This high-speed friction made the air no longer illusory, but Like a thick solid wall.
Lightning disappeared from sight.
Tilly knew that the opportunity had come.
She focused all her attention on the control of the plane—at this speed, the thrust provided by the propeller was almost equal to the resistance. What ordinary people should consider was how to pull up the plane again, rather than making it dive faster.
Only Tilly can maintain precise control in such a violent tremor situation, and use the rudder adjustment to further increase the speed.
Although the acceleration is not great, it is enough to close the distance with the leader.
When the Phoenix’s own limit was approaching, she flew out of the clouds!
The vast and endless land came into view again.
At the same time, there was Lightning—compared to the previous stable 100-meter lead, she was now on the same level as the new plane.
The latter, who came to his senses, instantly entered the speed of sound, but quickly slowed down and turned to move closer to the cockpit of the plane.
“As expected of Your Highness the Eldest Princess,” Lightning’s expression didn’t show much dejection, but admiration, “It can take the clouds into account.”
“If it’s any thinner, I won’t be able to keep up with you.” Li leveled the fuselage and replied with a smile.
From the very beginning, her plan was to use natural dives to allow Lightning to adapt to steady acceleration, and UU Reading www.sonicmtl.com finally completed the overtake under the cover of dark clouds—although it was only for a moment, the Phoenix did tie the gap.
“Wait, where did we fly to?” Maggie poked her head out of Lightning’s arms.
“Uh…” Tilly looked sideways, only to find that there was a strange scenery below, and the Impassable Mountain Range had been left far behind by them.
I was too involved in the chase just now, and I didn’t even notice how far I flew all the way to the northwest. “Maybe this is also part of the Fertile
Plain?”
The fertile soil plain we have set foot in. If we infer from the route, the east of us should be the junction of Wolfheart and the Kingdom of Eternal Winter, and the front is the spine of the continent—”
Her voice suddenly stopped at this point.
“What’s wrong?”
Tilly looked in the direction she mentioned, and then froze in place.
The mountains hidden in the clouds and mist in the distance are looming, far taller and more magnificent than the Impassable Mountains, but since Agatha and the expedition group have already known its existence, they will not be too surprised when they see it for the first time.
What shocked her was above the mountains.
I saw a gloomy dark red cloud entrenched on the top of the mountain, with countless lightning flashes in it, like a storm made of blood.
There is no doubt that it is by no means a celestial phenomenon that can be formed naturally.
The red cloud made her feel extremely uneasy.
