Free Web NovelChapter 2766: Chapter 922: The Day Fierce Sun Fell (Part 3)
"I wonder if it’s possible to embark on a journey home from the road of the dead here? Would the messengers of the Kings of the Netherworld be willing to travel far to pick up us failures and take us home?"
General Bopal sighed, closed his eyes, pulled out his cane, twisted open the hidden compartment at the top, and took out a small bottle of fine wine, removed the stopper, and drank it all.
Drinking while sailing is a serious violation, but at this point, who cares.
As the ship approached the ground, less than three hundred meters, and the collision was seconds away, a loud crash suddenly erupted from the middle of the sliding spaceship, causing the entire ship to violently shake and General Bopal to suddenly open his eyes.
He realized what had just happened, and before he could rejoice, a violent backlash erupted from below the auxiliary engine of the Sunship, like a pair of hands supporting the falling hull from below, continually counteracting the accumulated descent momentum and quickly bringing the gliding speed back into the safe threshold range.
However, this increase in speed came too late.
The altitude from the ground is not sufficient to allow the spaceship to return to a stable flying state, only to minimize the destructive power when the collision occurs, and General Bopal at this moment grabbed the reactivated helm, gritting his teeth to adjust the orientation of the Sunship.
Like the old sailor struggling against the ocean waves, unwilling to give up even in dire straits.
After just a few seconds of this standoff, the descending ship, in a sweeping posture, scraped the ground rocks with a loud noise, then rattled and bumped along the undulating hills of the Dark Mountain Range, carving out a ditch thousands of meters long before barely coming to a halt.
The good news is, the emergency landing was successful, the ship did not disintegrate.
The bad news is, the direction of the emergency landing is now more than seventy kilometers from the landing site of His Highness Prince Hu Fu’s escape pod.
The even worse news is, His Highness Prince Hu Fu’s escape pod seems to have landed within the territory range of a Wolven clan.
So before the old general could catch his breath, he had to set out immediately, leading the team to find their Crown Prince as quickly as possible, despite the head injury and severe concussion.
Oh, look at this damn day going...
-----------------
"Ahhhh!!!"
The elongated scream became clearer as the escape pod falling from the sky came closer to the ground, the screams came from His Highness Prince Hu Fu and his personal maid.
Uh, the nature of this maid is different from Earl Andre’s twin performers, Little Zuo and Xiao You; this lady is old enough to be Prince Hu Fu’s grandmother.
Nevertheless, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is quite reliable. Although he was really scared, when the escape pod crammed with twelve people was less than ten meters from the ground, he decisively activated the device in his hand, activating the kinetic neutralizing field, and in an instant, the escape pod bombing towards the ground quietly hovered about seven meters above ground.
The whole process was incredibly smooth, without causing any discomfort to the crowd, and then, under the continuous adjustment of the energy release frequency by the Crown Prince, the escape pod slowly landed.
"Bang"
The hatch was kicked open by Guard Captain Sonnik, and vigilant Sanghai Warriors jumped out holding powerful Thermal Halberds, then formed a standard protective formation with his two soldiers, following which Hu Fu and the others exited the escape pod.
In their eyes was a desolate land under the night sky.
The distance to Moss Valley was now unknown, but judging by the speed and trajectory of the Sunship’s fall, it was surely a journey beyond measure by mere footsteps.
"We must rush to rendezvous with General Bopal immediately, only there can ensure your safety."
The Guard Commander said in a deep voice:
"Your Highness, you will need to complete this unexpected trial given by the creator using your feet."
"Hmm, maybe not necessarily by foot..."
Hu Fu wiped the dust and blood off his face, pointed to the rising smoke in the distance, and said:
"Although I hurried without bringing my champion insect Su La, we seem to have landed in the territory of the Wolf People, and they’ve sent people, importantly, they’ve brought Throne Wolves for riding... so despite the creator giving us a trial by fall, the Sanghai People’s Father God still favors us, right, everyone.
Let’s wait here!
If those coming are Wolven who believe in the creator, that would be ideal.
Priests, hurry and treat my brother-in-law; his condition is far from good, and I don’t want my sister to become a widow before she gets married."
