922.The day the sun fell (page 2/2)
His Highness Khufu pointed to the ball floating on his shoulder and said:
“Before I left, my mother gave me this. It is said to be a gift that the ancestors of the Ptolemaic family received when they met the Creator. It is a super stable energy matrix. It can not only absorb energy damage, but also convert the matrix into kinetic energy neutralizing force. field, which means that when we fall, as long as the time is correct, we will not suffer any impact damage..
Unfortunately, its effective range is only ten cubic meters and cannot be used by this ship at all..”
“Then go!”
Sannik was naturally a decisive soldier as he was the captain of the Royal Guards. He immediately carried the crown prince on his back and led everyone behind him into the landing cabin and opened one. When he was about to speak, he heard Khufu stubbornly say:
“I'm the last one in! I had read stories like this from the writers my sister raised, and she would definitely close the hatch when I went in alone. I knew it was an act of loyalty, but now”
“Well, Your Highness, you have such a vivid imagination..”
The captain of the guard said helplessly:
“This is the Dark Mountains! How could I possibly allow you to parachute to the ground alone when there are dangerous beasts everywhere? Don't worry, we will all go down with you.”
“Ouch.”
The Crown Prince blushed deeply, but this was not the time to say this. He helped send his unconscious brother-in-law into the landing cabin, and then counted the heads to confirm that everyone had entered before closing and locking the hatch..
A few seconds later, the assault module was thrown out from the falling spacecraft. At this time, the solar ship was less than a kilometer away from the ground. When the assault module was thrown out, Khufu could see his own from the window. The rear of the ship has been completely shrouded in black smoke. This powerful weapon that symbolizes the majesty of the Songhai Empire is as miserable and desolate as a broken-winged flying eagle..
Fortunately, we just sent the soldiers to the ground.
Although they would need to fight the evil god without fire support, at least they would not have to die in such a disaster without warning..
“Before I set off, I clearly had a divination with Priest Hayek. He told me that not only would everything go smoothly during my trip, but I would also encounter wonderful encounters that would last a lifetime.”
A rather strange thought flashed through His Highness Khufu's mind at this moment, being protected by several guards in a "human cushion" manner in the bumpy landing cabin.:
“Ah, others say that Priest Bayek is a strange person, but now I believe it, old man! Look, your divination results are so wrong.!”
In the solar boat, General Bhopal, who was sitting in the captain's position, looked at the ground getting closer and closer in front of him, and then glanced at the multifunctional navigation clock placed on his seat. That thing actually measured the downward movement of the solar boat at this time. The speed has exceeded the safety threshold by more than three times.
This means that once an impact occurs, the ship will most likely disintegrate on the spot..
Of course, the holy objects given by the Creator will not fail in the collision test with the earth, but such a sophisticated creation, even in the best case scenario, will remain in the form of wreckage forever on this land far away from its hometown..
“I don’t know if it is possible to embark on the road home from the Road of the Dead here? Are the messengers from the kings of Hades willing to travel far away to welcome us losers back home??”
General Bhopal sighed, closed his eyes, took out his cane, opened the secret compartment above the cane, pulled out a small bottle of wine, removed the cork and drank it in one gulp..
Drinking while sailing is a serious infraction, but that's about it now, so what the heck.
Just when the spacecraft was close to the ground, with an altitude of less than 300 meters, and the collision was about to occur in a few seconds, a loud noise suddenly erupted from the middle of the sliding spacecraft, causing the entire ship to shake violently and causing General Bhopal to suddenly open his eyes. Eye.
He realized what had just happened, and before he could be ecstatic, a violent recoil erupted from beneath the auxiliary engine of the solar ship, as if a pair of hands were supporting the falling hull from below, allowing the accumulated falling kinetic energy to continue. was offset, causing the gliding speed to quickly approach the safe threshold again..
However, this push came too late.
The height from the ground was no longer enough to allow the spacecraft to return to a stable flight state. It could only reduce the destructive force caused by a collision as much as possible. General Bhopal also grabbed the restarted steering wheel and started Gritting his teeth, he adjusted the position of the solar boat..
Like an old sailor wrestling with the sea in the waves, unwilling to give up even in desperate situations.
After a few seconds of stalemate, the spacecraft dropped from the sky in a diagonal sweep across the rocks on the ground and made a loud noise. It then made a bumpy emergency landing and pulled out for thousands of meters on the rolling hills of the dark mountains. Only then could the ravine stop.
The good news is that the emergency landing was successful and the spacecraft did not disintegrate..
The bad news is that the distance between the direction of their emergency landing and the landing point of His Highness Khufu’s assault cabin is now more than 70 kilometers..
The worse news is that His Highness Khufu's assault cabin seems to have made an emergency landing within the territory of a Gnoll clan..
Therefore, before the old general could catch his breath, he had to lead the team with a bloody head and severe concussion to retrieve their crown prince as quickly as possible..
Oh, look at this damn day.——
“Ahhhhhhh!!!!”
The elongated screams became clearer as the assault cabin fell from the sky closer to the ground. The screams came from His Highness Khufu and his personal maid..
Well, the nature of this maid is different from that of Count Andrei's twin dancers Xiao Zuo and Xiao You. This lady is old enough to be His Highness Khufu's grandmother..
However, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is still very reliable. Although he was very scared, when the assault cabin packed with twelve people was more than ten meters away from the ground, he decisively activated the device in his hand and activated the kinetic energy neutralization force field. In an instant, the assault cabin that hit the ground with a "bombing" attitude quietly hovered almost seven meters above the ground..
The whole process was extremely smooth and did not cause any discomfort to everyone. Then the assault cabin slowly landed while the Crown Prince continued to adjust the frequency of energy release..
“Bang”
The hatch was kicked open by the captain of the Sannik guard. The vigilant Songhai warrior jumped out with a powerful molten halberd, and formed a standard protective formation with his two soldiers. Khufu and the others The man then walked out of the assault cabin.
What caught their eyes was a desolate land under the night sky..
I don’t know how far away from the Mossy Valley it is, but judging from the speed and trajectory of the sun boat when it slid down, it must have been a journey that cannot be measured with two feet..
“We must rush to join General Bhopal immediately, and only there can we protect your safety..”
The head guard said in a deep voice:
“Your Highness, next you need to use your feet to complete this unexpected trial given to us by the Creator..”
“Well, maybe you don’t have to use your feet either.”
Khufu wiped the dust and blood from his face, pointed to the smoke and dust rising in the distance, and said:
“Although I left in a hurry without bringing my Champion Worm Sulla, we seemed to have fallen into the territory of the gnolls. The other party sent people, and most importantly, they brought wargs for riding, so even though The Creator sent us a fall as a trial, but the Father God of the Songhai people still loves us, right? Everyone.
Just wait here!
It would be great if the one who came was a gnoll who believed in the Creator..
Priests, please treat my brother-in-law quickly. His condition is not good at all. I don’t want my sister to become a widow before she gets married..”
