Chapter 256 Pandan’s Parachute
Under the worried gazes of everyone, Xianglan set off on a small powered airship.
This kind of airship is equipped with a larger number of propellers, is faster, and has better control performance than ordinary airships and hot air balloons, so that it will not be blown everywhere by a little wind.
After taking off, the pilot directly maximized the power of the steam turbine. The high-quality fossil fuel in the boiler burned fiercely, and the propeller rotated at high speed, pushing the streamlined airship forward at high speed.
The process of chasing the sandy ship group was very smooth.
The powered airship is fast and located at a high altitude. It quickly confirmed the location of the melee between the sand fleet and the Lingshan Dragon.
More than forty minutes after taking off, we arrived over the combat area.
“Start descending! Get ready to light the signal!” the pilot shouted loudly while operating the airship.
Another crew member immediately lit a kerosene lantern and made a signal by opening and closing the lampshade.
However, the brightness of the kerosene lamp was not as bright as the mirror that reflected sunlight during the day. With the bright full moon in the sky as the background, the people in the sand boat group did not seem to notice them.
“Too high, they can’t see! Keep going down!”
As the height of the airship gradually decreased, the body of the airship shook violently, and the person who was signaling almost fell down.
“Hold on!”
“The low air flow is too chaotic and cannot be stabilized! This height is the limit, and the airship will lose control if it is lowered any further!” the pilot shouted, sweating profusely.
The signalman managed to stabilize his body and flashed the light several more times, but the people of the Sandy Ship Group still didn't notice it.
Suddenly a gust of cross wind hit, and the airship suddenly floated sideways for a while. The people on the airship flipped over, and several cables connecting the airbag to the hull of the airship were stretched.
“The airship is about to fall apart!” the pilot, who was holding on to the steering wheel, shouted.
“The oil lamp is out! Miss Xianglan, I have to rely on you!” The signalman hurriedly stamped out the kerosene flames that spilled on the deck while shouting to Xianglan.
Xianglan stuck her little head out of the side of the boat.
This place is still two to three hundred meters above the ground.
On the secluded sandy sea, the roaring amethyst dragon is even more frightening.
"Meow-"
The pressure from Gu Long made Xianglan shrink in fear.
“Miss Xianglan!”
Awakened by the driver's shout, Xianglan frantically scratched her ears several times.
“Never mind, meow!”
It tightened the letterbox around its waist, shouted as if giving up, closed its eyes tightly, and jumped off the violently shaking airship.
The fierce wind roared in its ears.
It tried its best to open its eyelids, and what appeared in its sight was the earth approaching at an extremely fast speed.
“Meow meow meow meow!”
Pianlan screamed, it finally remembered what it should do now, and quickly opened the tie of the baggage behind its back, and a side of thin but strong silk unfolded.
The four corners of the square silk are firmly fixed on the baggage behind it, catching the wind, and the falling speed decreases sharply.
Pandan breathed a sigh of relief.
The parachute deployed successfully and it is basically safe.
It was played like this when I was a child, and as a result, I was scolded badly by my mother and sister.
I heard that Ellu from the Western Continent can also travel by kite. I don’t know what it feels like?
After calming down, Xianglan looked around the sand boat below, and soon found Fengshan Maru, the largest ship on the boat. She began to twist her body and control the parachute to get closer there.
But at this moment, another gust of wind hit, and the turbulent air flow dragged the parachute flying left and right.
It found that it could not accurately control the direction of the parachute landing.
Below, on the dragon boat.
Pork Chop, who was helping Hayata carry the shells, turned his head in confusion and looked around.
“Meow? Why do you seem to hear Elu calling meow?”
Hayata also paused firing the artillery, "I seem to have heard it too. It feels a bit like pandan?"
“It’s a bit meow. It also meows like this when it falls down and rolls around in the roller.”
“Foul language! Look up there!” Gordon exclaimed.
Hayata and Zhupa quickly looked up, and then they were also shocked. Twenty or thirty meters high in the air, a silver-haired little Ellu was hanging on a parachute, dancing and dancing around.
“It’s that guy, meow!”
Possibly due to the sharp sand and gravel mixed in the wind, the silk parachute behind Pandan was suddenly torn open. The strong wind tore it off, and the crack expanded instantly. Pandan screamed and fell down.
"-Meow!"
Hayata stared closely at the position where Pandan fell, rushed out, jumped out of the side of the ship, grabbed Pandan before it hit the ground, and then fell into the sand sea together.
“Pork chop! Go to the stern and have a look!”
"Meow!"
Pork Chop ran on all fours toward the stern of the ship, where the fixed point of the safety rope was. People who fell off the ship could use the safety rope to reboard the ship from there.
The soft sand acted as the best buffer. With reasonable support and protective rolling, Hayata and Pandan were not seriously injured.
Soon, they followed the safety rope and successfully climbed onto the Mineyama Maru deck.
Before Hayata and Pig Chop asked why it fell from the sky, the little guy held up the letterbox on his waist and jumped up and said: "There is a letter, meow! There is urgent and important information, meow!"
With no time to ask in detail, Hayata immediately took Pandan to find the captain of the ship.
After quickly reading the letter from Gulong Observation Bureau, the captain of the ship pounded the steering wheel hard and loudly ordered: "All weapons, change the direction of attack and aim at the crystal behind Lingshan Dragon!"
The trumpeter and flag bearer quickly conveyed the order.
A big hand stretched out from the side, pinched the back of Xiao Pandan's neck, lifted it in front of him, and shook it.
Maridan grinned and said, "Elu is so young, isn't she still an adult?"
"Meow!"
Pandan screamed in fear. It felt that this tall, tattooed and ferocious-looking woman wanted to eat it.
Maridan smiled awkwardly when she realized that she had scared the kitten. She put Pandan down and patted the latter's little head.
"really brave!"
Then she looked at Hayata, "Is it your hunting cat?"
Hayata was slightly startled when he heard this, and then he laughed, "Yes, it's called Pandan."
Pandan didn’t react at first, but when she figured out what Hayata meant, she jumped up and down happily.
“Okay, okay, you’re jumping around and you don’t even have any armor on and you dare to get into the battlefield like this. Hurry up and get into the cabin. A sand fish will jump up and bite your **** off.”
Maridan waved her hand and drove Pandan into the cabin. Her words were rude, but she did think about little Ellu.
Xianglan looked at Hayata, who was in high spirits and wanted to help the latter more.
Hayata held the little guy's cheek and rubbed it, "Listen to Senior Maridan and go to the cabin to help. The crew will tell you what to do."
“Meow meow~” Xianglan happily rubbed Hayata’s palm.
Pork Chop got angry when he saw this guy's lack of tension. The battle against Lingshan Dragon was in full swing, and the artillery position Hayata was responsible for was still empty!
It swung its paw on the back of Pandan’s head.
"Meow, what are you doing? Meow! Come in and work in the cabin, don't get in the way, meow!"
