Chapter 33 The disappearance of free fall

Faced with the scene before him, Wu Jinqiang felt a deep fear.

His whole body began to tremble involuntarily and cold sweat dripped down his forehead.

"Brother Fu, is there a Black Sea Island ahead?" he asked, his voice filled with fear of the unknown: "Although I have heard of its horror, after seeing it with my own eyes, it feels even more terrifying than I imagined!"

Qin Fu remained silent, his eyes fixed on the sea shrouded in darkness ahead.

Wu Jinqiang became more and more uneasy. He continued, "Oh, how are we going to get through? We're doomed."

Suddenly, Qin Fu gently patted the Protoss under his seat, and then whispered a few words in its ear, as if conveying a secret instruction that only they could understand.

The Proto-Beast seemed to fully understand Qin Fu's intention, and then flapped its wings and flew high into the sky.

Wu Jinqiang witnessed this scene and was filled with doubts.

He asked in confusion: "Brother Fu, what are you going to do?"

Qin Fu still did not respond, staring firmly ahead.

At this time, Xu Wenting smiled and said to Wu Jinqiang: "Jinqiang, you just need to trust him."

Following Qin Fu's command, the Proto-Beast bravely flew high into the sky, below it were the layers of ever-changing black clouds.

Qin Fu patted the Proto-Beast lightly, as if giving it a signal, and the Proto-Beast rushed towards the black clouds below without hesitation.

Wu Jinqiang was so scared that he almost peed himself. He almost screamed, "Oh my god, the black clouds are full of hail, lightning, and tornadoes!"

Qin Fu remained unusually calm at this critical moment. He assigned tasks and said, "Jin Qiang, you are responsible for dealing with the hail."

Qin Fu continued to order: "Jiujiu, you will be responsible for fighting the thunder and lightning; Tingting will be responsible for treating the injured."

Wu Jinqiang retorted with a hint of anger and helplessness: "Qin Fu, you are really a lunatic!"

At this time, Qin Fu and his team had entered the dark cloud layer. The thunder was deafening, lightning was flashing, hail and tornadoes were raging around them.

"Boom"

Suddenly, a giant hailstone with a diameter of five meters rushed towards Qin Fu at an astonishing speed.

Wu Jinqiang activated his power-enhancing ability without hesitation.

His muscles expanded instantly, filled with explosive power.

He clenched his fists, concentrated all his strength, and punched the rapidly approaching hail.

With a deafening bang, the huge hailstone was shattered by Wu Jinqiang's powerful force, turning into countless harmless particles that flew everywhere.

Just as Wu Jinqiang successfully resisted the hail, thunder roared in the sky again, and a dazzling bolt of lightning struck the Ancestral Beast.

Jiujiu was ready. It quickly connected its roots in a complex manner to form a temporary shield, directly blocking the place where the lightning was about to strike.

"Boom"

With a loud bang, the shield made by Jiujiu was instantly shattered by the powerful force of lightning.

But it successfully blocked the fatal attack and protected the safety of the Proto-Mon.

However, the roots of the plant were severely damaged in this defense.

Upon seeing this, Xu Wenting immediately rushed towards the injured Jiujiu and used her healing ability.

Her movements were swift and focused, and healing light flowed from her hands, covering Jiujiu's wounds.

Under Xu Wenting's treatment, Jiujiu's injuries recovered quickly and its roots regained vitality.

After recovering, Jiujiu made a shield again and waited firmly for the next lightning attack.

Qin Fu was not idle during the whole process. He calmly commanded the flight of the Proto-Beast under the continuous attacks of the tornado.

Just as they were about to fly out of the dark clouds, two powerful tornadoes suddenly formed and hit them at the same time.

"Everyone hold on tight!"

At this tense moment, the Proto-Beast, which was originally flying sideways, was skillfully controlled by Qin Fu.

She quickly turned her body into a straight flying posture, like an arrow, and smoothly passed through the gap between two violent tornadoes. Xu Wenting, the feather she was holding tightly, suddenly fell out of her hand at this critical moment.

Having lost her feathers, Xu Wenting was unable to maintain her balance and began to fall rapidly.

Xu Wenting screamed in horror: "Ah!"

The voice echoed in the storm. When Qin Fu heard the cry for help, his heart tightened and he immediately turned to look in the direction of Xu Wenting.

Qin Fu immediately commanded the Ancestral Beast to change direction and rush towards Xu Wenting's location.

However, at this critical moment, a dazzling bolt of lightning, like the wrath of God, struck the Proto-Beast.

The Protomon sensed a strong sense of danger and instinctively slowed down and made a dodgy move.

Qin Fu saw this and immediately gave Jiujiu an order: "Jiujiu, the root!"

Jiujiu immediately understood Qin Fu's intention, and its roots grew rapidly and continuously.

Qin Fu quickly grasped the base of the Jiujiu, steadied his body, jumped into the air, and tried to get close to Xu Wenting.

At the same time, Jin Qiang also rushed to Jiujiu's side, tightly grasped Jiujiu's roots, and pulled hard to stabilize Jiujiu and Qin Fu from falling.

However, the tornado seemed to be deliberately making things difficult for them and struck again, blowing Qin Fu into the air.

Seeing this, the Proto-Beast flapped its wings without hesitation and rushed towards Qin Fu, and Qin Fu landed steadily on the Proto-Beast's back.

Although Qin Fu, Jiujiu and Jin Qiang worked together well, Xu Wenting's figure had disappeared in the dark clouds.

Qin Fu's heart sank.

He decisively commanded the Proto-Beast under him, ordering it to fold its wings and prepare for a swift dive.

The Protomon obeys its master's orders as if it were a stretched bow with the arrow ready to be shot at any time.

Under Qin Fu's precise command, the Ancestral Beast rushed towards the black clouds below at an incredible speed like an arrow shot from a bow.

In just less than five seconds, the Proto-Beast penetrated the gloomy black cloud at a speed almost comparable to lightning.

When they finally broke out of the encirclement of the black clouds, the scene before them made Qin Fu hold his breath.

Originally, from his sight, Xu Wenting's figure had disappeared without a trace.

There was no trace left in the air, as if she had never appeared here.

In this tense and chaotic moment, Wu Jinqiang felt a little uneasy.

Confused, he asked Qin Fu: "Brother Fu, has she fallen into the sea?"

Qin Fu did not answer immediately. He calmly analyzed the surrounding situation and the dynamics of the sea, while looking down at the watch on his wrist.

After a brief observation and deep thought, Qin Fu finally spoke: "She disappeared!"

After Wu Jinqiang heard Qin Fu's words, he couldn't help but fall into deeper confusion and asked, "What do you mean? Xu Wenting disappeared?"

"The height from sea level to the dark clouds is about three thousand meters. If a human body falls freely, it will take about twenty-five seconds to fall from this height to sea level. Therefore, Tingting should still be within our sight."

After hearing this, Wu Jinqiang asked in even greater confusion: "You mean, Xu Wenting is still falling from the sky, instead of disappearing without a trace?"

"That's right. From the time Tingting started falling, only about twelve or thirteen seconds had passed."

Wu Jinqiang's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.

"Fuck, Brother Fu, is this true or false? How do you know the speed and time required for this kind of free fall? No wonder you chose to fly downward from above the black clouds, because gravity will accelerate you through the black clouds."

Qin Fu did not answer Jin Qiang's question. His eyes were deep, as if he was thinking about something.

At this time, Wu Jinqiang did not stop his questioning.

He continued: "If what you said is right, then how do we find Xu Wenting?"

Qin Fu still did not respond to Wu Jinqiang, his gaze turned to the sea.

In front of them, the sea area covered by black clouds appeared dark and dim, and in the center of this sea area was a place called [Black Sea Island].
