Several jet fighters with reconnaissance pods were approaching the city of Shanghai shrouded in dark clouds from the direction of the sea. In the cockpit of the lead aircraft was Lu Yuanzhou's former wingman pilot Zhao Yao. After Lu Yuanzhou participated in the selection, he chose to stay.

Aviation Division, has now been promoted to regimental commander.

Several drones sent by the aviation division for close reconnaissance failed to reach the clouds and lost contact. He resolutely chose to fly to the sky above Shanghai to find out the situation. Although Master Sun was extremely reluctant to let him take the risk

, but there is no other way.

In addition to its excellent flying skills and courage, this straight-wing aircraft retains the cable hydraulic control mode and has excellent reliability.

"Zhao Yao! If something goes wrong, turn around and return home immediately. Don't show off, you can't hear me!" Master Sun's rude orders in thick dialect came over the radio.

"Don't worry, Commander. This enemy hasn't appeared yet, so I can't kill myself first!" Zhao Yao pretended to be relaxed and replied, but the sight in front of him made him involuntarily tighten his grip on the joystick and throttle.

Because the aviation division was stationed near Shanghai, he had flown the route from the sea to Shanghai many times. In the past, the sleeping beauty who wore a long silk satin dress and lay between the sea and the sky no longer had the romantic and charming appearance.

Under the pressure of the cloud cover as black as a frying pan over the city, she was eclipsed like a broken body on the hospital bed.

As the fighter plane approached, countless whips on the back of the cloud cover were waving at the zenith of lightning, which looked very dazzling even in the brightly sunny high altitude. Zhao Yao put down the goggles on his helmet, and the cloud cover covered the entire city of Shanghai.

Like a layer of pitch black coal.

The dense purple lightning above the clouds is like the purple flame swelled by the blower in a forge.

"Captain Zhao, why are you shooting this lightning in the sky?" the wingman asked in horror.

"Don't go forward, just hover here and wait for orders." Zhao Yao ordered.

As the distance continued to get closer, Zhao Yao also discovered an even stranger situation. The lightning whips swung at the zenith almost stopped at the same height, as if there was an invisible iron net.

The black clouds above channeled all the lightning.

But there was nothing on the radar. Zhao Yao looked intently. Where the lightning disappeared, whether it was an illusion of strong light or a real existence, there seemed to be a transparent film that seemed to be there. When the electric current touched it, a beam of light would be emitted briefly.

A dark red glow. He decided to get closer and see it clearly.

"The left engine has inhaled foreign objects! The left engine has inhaled foreign objects!" The AI ​​voice and alarm sounded suddenly.

Zhao Yao was startled. The screen showed that the engine speed on the left side was decreasing sharply. He thought for a moment and found that he did not feel the impact of a bird strike or a normal inhaled foreign object, nor did he hear any sound.

Not allowing him to think too much, the AI ​​voice sounded again:

"The right engine ingested a foreign object! The left engine stalled! The right engine stalled!...."

The AI ​​​​voice became stuck, and then all the screens in the entire cockpit went out. The roar of the engine gradually stopped until it disappeared completely. The whole world suddenly became quiet, and Zhao Yao could only hear the air pouring in.

The whistling sound came from the air intake, and the joystick in his hand became as heavy as a rowing oar.

Zhao Yao immediately realized that his plane not only lost power, but also suffered a shutdown of the entire electronic equipment. More than ten years of flying experience made him calm down immediately. He grabbed the heavy joystick and controlled the plane to dive at a small slope.

The posture started to turn in a large radius, trying to avoid the thundercloud first.

However, the aircraft that lost power should not turn too sharply, otherwise it would fall into an irreversible tail spin due to stalling. The aircraft gradually approached the thundercloud while tilting to the left at a small angle, and its altitude also dropped to near the thundercloud.

The whole world in front of Zhao Yao's eyes became extremely bright because of the countless electric whips on the clouds. Even if he closed his eyes, it was still bright. He couldn't see clearly the attitude indicator on the dashboard, let alone the outside world.

.

He could only close his eyes tightly and let his body feel the attitude of the aircraft. Listening to the whirring sound of the aircraft body disturbing the air and the hissing sound of electric current cutting through the air, he prayed not to rush into the hellish lightning forge.

The flickering bright world suddenly disappeared, the closed eyes returned to darkness, and the vibrations of the fuselage suddenly became louder.

When he opened his eyes, he saw darkness all around him, and the plane had already penetrated into the black clouds.

Zhao Yao adjusted the attitude of the aircraft and pushed the stick to increase the dive slope. Amidst the increasing sound of airflow, the dim city of Shanghai appeared in his sight. He rubbed his eyes, which were still showing stars due to the sudden switch between light and dark, and looked around.

He searched carefully. Under the dim light, a looming long bar in the distance made him smile slightly and said to himself:

"It seems like today is not all bad luck."

...

"Brother Yu Sheng, look! There is a plane coming out of the clouds! The sound just now should have been made by him." Xiao Hu pointed at the shadow of an airplane sliding silently under the clouds in the distance and shouted.

Chu Yusheng also saw the plane shining brightly under the electric light, and frowned and thought:

"Oops, he must have stalled! Report immediately and prepare for rescue!"

The light reflected from the plane gradually became flickering and dimmed, and the last afterimage disappeared among the dim silhouettes of buildings in the distance. Xiao Hu put down the phone and exclaimed:

"The lightning has stopped!"

Chu Yusheng walked to the guardrail and took a look. The whole world was dimmer than before the lightning started. The lights returned to the tall buildings, and the Pearl of the Orient tower in the distance could only see a string of misty lights. Suddenly, he

It feels like the skin all over my body is itchy as if ants have crawled over it.

He twisted his body subconsciously, but the powered exoskeleton on his body prevented him from opening his sleeves to see what was wrong with his arm. Looking back, Xiao Hu was also scratching his head. The female militiaman next to him surprised him.

She couldn't help laughing, but at this time the people around her also noticed the strange phenomenon and cast strange looks at her.

The female militiaman looked puzzled. She held her helmet with one hand and groped with her head and face for a while, and then she yelled "Ah!". Her long hair tied into a ponytail stood upright towards the sky as if the direction of gravity had changed.

.

"There's static in the air!" shouted another militiaman.

At this time, Chu Yusheng heard a "crackling" sound like a bonfire that was about to burn out. Looking in the direction of the sound, countless tiny sparks were flickering on the bright barrel of the lightning rod in the corner of the rooftop.

Just as he was about to speak, a burst of manic air seemed to pour down from directly above his head, rendering him speechless. With the assistance of powered exoskeletons, Chu Yusheng and Xiao Hu were still standing upright, but the clothes on their bodies made them look awkward.

There was a loud noise. The five militiamen were almost pushed to the ground by the strong wind, and they hunched over and crawled towards the corridor.

Chu Yusheng walked to the stairs against the strong wind that almost poured into his lungs. With the assistance of the powered exoskeleton, he and Xiao Hu closed the door at the stairs. Before the door closed, he took a look

Sky.

The cloud base, which was originally as calm as water, is now running around like frightened sheep. The spot of spotlights shining on the cloud base is much smaller and much brighter. The rooftop of the super-tall residential building in the distance is swaying with lights.

Already submerged in the black clouds.

Chu Yusheng and Xiao Hu were leaning against the door and did not dare to relax. The militiamen were huddled in the corner holding their rifles and shivering.

The strong wind passing between the buildings made a shrill howl like the howling of wolves, and the rustling leaves were mixed with the sound of breaking branches. Billboards and street signs were no different from pieces of paper in the strong wind. They twisted and waved to make an eerie sound.

A creepy sound was mixed in with the sound of broken glass.

This march of destruction played by the strong wind poured into everyone's ears, oppressing people's eardrums and holding people's hearts tightly. Every moment in the strong wind, even breathing felt extremely long.
