MM Racing Chapter 52: New Feature [Flying and Earth-遁ing]
Chapter 52: New Feature [Flying and Earth-遁ing]
Despite planning to raid Gotham, Lucas did not immediately choose to set off.
First of all, Gotham is not close to the Metropolitan Area.
Secondly, it's at least 200 kilometers away from the metropolis.
Besides, those lunatics in Gotham aren't just armed with millet and rifles.
They're so crazy they can even build missiles, and the Court of Owls is secretly controlling everything. Lucas needs to make sure he can control all the unfavorable situations that may arise or occur.
The disintegration of Kryptonite by Shadow Particles continues.
As the primordial existence of the Abyss world, Shadow Particles possess unimaginable corrosiveness and assimilative power.
However, it is easily dispelled by strong light, high temperature or powerful mental energy. But after fusing with green kryptonite, this weakness has almost disappeared, and it has become exceptionally stable.
Kent Farm.
Rachel and Clark are busy with their homework for the day.
Lucas took some time to enter the Abyss World and practice flying while controlling his obviously mutated Shadow Armor.
Although the collective consciousness of the shadow particles could passively help him control his flight, it felt like turning on driver assistance while driving, far less reassuring than holding the steering wheel himself.
However, after flying two circles, several lines of text suddenly appeared in front of Lucas:
[Achievement: 100th freefall from a height of 5,000 meters.]
[Reward: Gain the Trait - Flying and Earth-遁 (Flying and Earth-遁 is a special ability in Chinese mobile games)]
[Current cumulative freefall is 0/100.]
Upon seeing the specific content displayed on the text prompt, Lucas couldn't help but be overjoyed.
It took Xiaozhen Chao a full 10 seasons to finally fly, and he's already taking flight first. If he gets a heat vision or something... wouldn't they be like brothers?
With that thought in mind, Lucas immediately controlled the Shadow Armor's huge wings and soared into the sky.
It broke through layers of gray fog and soon came to a steady stop at an altitude of 5,000 meters.
A fierce wind howled and surged, and beneath one's feet lay the barren, cracked, yellowish-brown earth of the Reverse World.
Taking a deep breath, Lucas then withdrew the lifting force of his particle wings.
The next moment, his body suddenly fell from a height of five thousand meters.
The wind howled sharply in my ears, and my body continued to fall faster due to gravity.
The steel body withstood the violent airflow impact, the Shadow Armor shimmering with a deep dark green luster, offsetting all the impact and absorbing all the surrounding air resistance, allowing Lucas to fall even faster.
Three seconds later.
boom!
A dull, loud bang rang out, sending dust and debris flying everywhere, and a deep crater was smashed into the ground beneath our feet.
Lucas stood at the center of the impact point, his body as steady as a rock.
Under the dual protection of his steel body and the evolved Shadow Armor, he only felt a slight impact, as if someone had gently patted him.
Freefall count: 1/100
"That feels good, let's do it again!"
Lucas kicked the pebbles under his feet aside, and once the Shadow Armor had cleaned away the dust, he quickly took off again, returning to an altitude of 5,000 meters.
Falling, crashing, getting up, the cycle repeats itself.
Loud noises echoed continuously in the vast, empty abyss.
The ground was quickly covered with a dense array of impact craters, as if it had been struck by a meteorite.
[Achievement: 100th freefall from a height of 5,000 meters.]
[Reward: Gain the Trait - Flying and Earth-遁 (Flying and Earth-遁 is a special ability in Chinese mobile games)]
[Current cumulative freefall: 45/100]
Hearing Ms. Martha calling him to eat, Lucas immediately stopped.
In just one afternoon, nearly half of the work was completed.
Based on this calculation, it would take about a day for me to master the ability to fly and teleport.
This made Lucas's smile even brighter.
After exiting the abyss, he went straight into the house.
Surprisingly.
Tonight's dinner was exceptionally lavish.
The main courses alone include three kinds: pan-fried steak, pan-fried chicken breast, and fried pork chop. Judging from the appearance and the packaging box below, this is clearly not made by Ms. Martha.
Furthermore, the best proof is that the latest 16-inch extra-large thin-crust pizza labeled Big New Yorker.
In addition, there are three special sauces and a bottle of Bug Juice in front of each person.
This is a popular drink in the town right now; it looks colorful and tastes super sweet.
Rachel and Clark usually like each other very much.
Lucas couldn't stand the distinctly industrial taste.
"Is today some special day? It looks really nice!"
As Lucas popped a piece of fried pork chop into his mouth, he asked with interest.
In the past, such a large meal was only served when family members celebrated birthdays or holidays.
Rachel and Clark both looked on with curiosity.
Jonathan, unusually, broke open a bottle of whiskey, took a sip, and smiled, saying:
"When Dad came home, he bought a lottery ticket and had incredible luck, winning several thousand dollars."
Lucas, Clark, and Rachel all gasped in surprise.
Clark and Rachel were simply thrilled.
Several thousand US dollars is no small sum.
Lucas was simply going with the flow, providing Jonathan with emotional support while thinking that if he had X-ray vision, he could buy some scratch-off lottery tickets, which would allow him to relieve the family's financial burden without having to explain where the money came from.
Martha placed a slice of steak on Jonathan's plate with a gentle smile on her face.
The pressure of raising three children is immense. Even with state tax breaks, after deducting monthly loan payments and living expenses, life is still a bit of a struggle.
Jonathan's windfall undoubtedly greatly relieved the family's financial burden.
Everyone was very satisfied with the meal.
Leaving the courtyard, Lucas had a thought, and his figure immediately entered the Abyss World.
He couldn't wait to acquire the new features.
Beneath my feet lay the same barren, cracked, yellowish-brown earth, the air thick with the deathly stillness unique to this inverted world.
Without saying much, he directly activated the Shadow Armor, spread its wings, and soared into the air, once again reaching a height of 5,000 meters.
boom!
Freefall count: 56/100
Freefall count: 57/100
【…】
Falling, rising, falling again.
The pits on the ground accumulated, layer upon layer, creating a scene of utter chaos.
It was like an earthquake.
Time flew by in the monotonous yet passionate repetition.
A hazy glimmer of light gradually appeared on the horizon, and a dark yellow storm glow enveloped the abyss, signifying a new day.
The flow of time in the Abyss world and the real world is one to one.
At that moment, the text prompt in front of Lucas suddenly refreshed.
[Achievement: 100th freefall from a height of 5,000 meters (Completed)]
[Reward: Special ability to fly and burrow underground]
[Flying and Escape: Completely break free from the constraints of gravity, allowing you to fly freely in the air, with speed, turning, and hovering all controlled by your mind. At the same time, you can physically penetrate rocks and soil to move freely underground without being hindered by earth and rocks. Both abilities operate smoothly without the need for external assistance.]
Note: This trait is extremely closely related to your physical strength; the higher your physical strength, the stronger this trait will be.
