Chapter 1381 Extre (2/2)
According to the distance covered, the Phoenix had approached a speed of 800 khtning was consistently staying ahead of the plane's nose, she no longer had the tiht, Tilly was relying on gravity
She had discovered it while piloting the biplane When she accumulated sufficient altitude and converted it to speed in an instant, she was able to easily break through the liht about by such speeds could not be overlooked They ranged fro in midair
If Tilly did not rely on her perceptive capabilities to sense the critical point, she would never have dared to eht
But even so, the chance of catching up to Lightning was miniscule
She recalled Roland's words, restricted by the propeller blades, it required an extreine to surpass the speed of sound In other words, the gains did not make up for the losses, to the extent that propellers were replaced by jet engines as soon as the latter was produced However, Lightning was able to break through the sound barrier at any moment, so the disparity between the tere not at the sa the descent froh altitude, they rushed towards the dense and dark clouds that sat at an altitude of 2500into it
The Phoenix whistled through the dark clouds and for pillar'!
At that mos fros Tilly could feel the sharp wings cut through the viscous airflow; the resistance froer act ethereal, butdisappeared from her vision
Tilly knew that her opportunity had co the plane The propulsion force supplied by the propellers at that speed was almost equivalent to resistance Any ordinary person would consider thethe nose back up and not dive down any faster Only Tilly was able to maintain precise control under the violent treh the increase of speed was not huge, but it was enough for her to close the distance with Lightning
When the Phoenix was closing in on its limit, she flew out of the clouds!
The vast and endless land appeared before her once again
Lightning eed at the sa was actually flying alongside the plane After realizing it, the latter immediately broke the sound barrier, but soon reduced her speed once more She turned and flew close to the cockpit
”As expected of Your Highness” Lightning's expression showed no signs of dejection; instead, she had a look of ad the clouds”
”If it had been slightly thinner, I would never had been able to catch up to you” Tilly pulled the plane horizontally and laughed
Right froet used to a stable acceleration and finally use the cover of the dark clouds to overtake her Although it was only for an instant, the Phoenix was indeed capable of closing the gap
”Wait, where are we?” Maggie dug her head out of Lightning's bosom
”Uh…” Tilly looked around, only to discover unfae left far behind them They had been too immersed in the competition and never noticed how far they had flown northwest ”I'htning took out a telescope ”But it is a part of the Fertile Plains which we have never stepped into If we consider the route, our east should be the boundary between the Kingdoe of the continent should be—”
At this point, her voice trailed off
”What?”
Tilly followed her gaze and froze
Hidden behind the clouds and e, far taller andheard of its' existence froatha and the Exploration Group, Tilly was not overly surprised at the first sight
What shocked her was the top of the loo flickered within, like a storm formed by fresh blood
Without a doubt, it was not a natural pheno </br>
