Under the night sky, a figure draped in a dark red cloak sped between skyscrapers, took out his phone, and dialed a number.
"Are you still at the tavern?"
"Yes, what's wrong?" An Qingyu's voice rang out.
"You're very close to the airport. Go there now, find the plane that takes off at 3:20 AM, the tavern owner is on it."
An Qingyu raised an eyebrow, glanced at the time, and said, "I have five minutes left. I should be able to make it. How about you?"
"I have my own way."
"Good."
An Qingyu hung up the phone, rushed out of the tavern, and as if ignoring gravity, stepped on the vertical wall and rushed directly to the roof, then sprinted towards the airport at an astonishing speed.
After analyzing the mysterious corpse of the lizard, he not only gained the ability of super-speed regeneration, but also an insane speed and mobility!
It was precisely because of this that even Hongying couldn't catch up with Lin Qiye when she sent him a message during the New Year.
...
"Five more minutes... If this continues, we'll be too late." Lin Qiye silently calculated the distance in his mind, his brows furrowing slightly.
Not only him, but Hongying and the others were also too late. Although she drove like a madwoman, no matter how crazy she was, the distance was fixed, and no matter how fast the car went, it couldn't get to the airport in five minutes.
Therefore, the only hope is that the airport can successfully intercept the plane...
But will the tavern owner really just sit and wait to die?Lin Qiye took a deep breath, pressed his right hand into the air, and under the black night sky, a dazzling magic circle opened in Lin Qiye's palm. A moment later, a little boy wearing a blue caregiver uniform walked out from it.
A string of numbers was engraved on the nameplate on his chest.
——002.
A'Zhu looked around blankly, not yet realizing what was happening, when Lin Qiye picked her up and shouted:
"Transform!"
Azhu:...???
"Dean...Dean, what are you saying?" Azhu tilted her head in confusion.
"Revert to your original form, I want to ride you," Lin Qiye said seriously.
Azhu opened her mouth wide, as if her young heart had been struck a violent blow, and spoke with a hint of tears in her voice:
"This... I... I'm still a child... Dean, if you really want to ride, go ride Li Yifei! He's strong! He can handle it!"
Lin Qiye glanced at him. "What nonsense are you talking about? Li Yifei's speed is nowhere near yours. Apart from Hongyan, you're the fastest of all the caregivers. We can only rely on you now."
Of the current caregivers, Li Yifei is the biggest simpleton. While his speed in his true form isn't slow, it's not particularly fast either, especially considering he's recently gained a lot of weight; his speed is probably even more pathetic. The Rubik's Cube, while capable of disrupting space, isn't durable enough.
If he could summon his Hongyan, he could teleport directly across the earth using the power of the Flame Vein Earth Dragon, reaching the airport in just half a minute. Unfortunately, she is at the "Sea" Realm, and Lin Qiye is not yet strong enough to summon her.
After much deliberation, only A'Zhu is the most suitable.
Azhu was taken aback, blinked, and tentatively asked, "Dean... is that what you mean?"
"Otherwise what?!"
"Okay, sure!"
Azhu breathed a sigh of relief. Her small body rapidly expanded, transforming into a giant white spider in the blink of an eye. Lin Qiye turned around and rode on its back. The Soul Weaver Spider's eight legs moved forward at breakneck speed, its form blurring with motion.
Carrying Lin Qiye on its back, it leaped from the top of a tall building. Its spider silk instantly sprang out and stuck to another building in the distance. With a gentle sway, it flew hundreds of meters away.
Lin Qiye finally got to experience what it's like to be Spider-Man.
Compared to when Lin Qiye flew on his own before, his speed was much faster now. However, even though it was faster, Lin Qiye still felt a little strange riding around on a spider.
Everyone else rides dragons, horses, tigers... but he's become the Spider Rider?
Moreover, this is an "immature spider".
However, this is not the time to dwell on such matters in this critical moment.
At Azhu's speed, Lin Qiye arrived near the airport in just a few minutes. Just then, Lin Qiye's phone rang again.
"How are you?" Lin Qiye shouted to An Qingyu on the other end of the phone.
"There was a slight mishap. I found the plane, but it took off before ground control could issue a no-fly order." An Qingyu's voice was somewhat unclear, with the whistling wind filling the microphone.
Lin Qiye was taken aback, "Then what do you do now...?"
"I didn't have time to get onto the plane, so I just stuck to the bottom."
In the night sky, An Qingyu, clinging to the bottom of the plane like Spider-Man, glanced at the airport below that was gradually shrinking. His black trench coat fluttered in the strong wind, and his eyes were full of helplessness.
"The plane has now taken off..."
Rumble—!!
Just then, a plane that had just taken off flew over Lin Qiye's head. The plane was so close to the ground that Lin Qiye could see a figure in black lying on the bottom of the plane.
The deafening roar of the engine swept past!
This is it!
Without the slightest hesitation, Lin Qiye hung up the phone, pointed to the plane gradually moving away from the ground, and asked the Soul Weaver Spider beneath him, "Can we get on?"
"It should be possible."
The Soul-Weaving Spider spun a thread from its tail, which shot rapidly into the sky, floated for a moment, and then stuck to the rear wing of the airplane.
The next moment, the man and the spider were lifted up by the spider silk and flew directly into the sky!
The spider silk was getting shorter and shorter; they were getting closer and closer to the plane, and farther and farther away from the ground...
Holding tightly to the Soul-Weaving Spider, Lin Qiye looked down. Familiar buildings rapidly shrank, and the streets, covered with streetlights, resembled golden ribbons, winding through the dark city.
As he continued to climb higher, he could even see the location of his house, the location of his high school, and the location of the Peace Bridge Office...
We are not far from the area designated by Wu Xiangnan for the ceremony.
After the plane climbed to a certain altitude, it did not choose to continue climbing, but instead flew steadily in the air without any intention of flying into the clouds.
This was not unexpected for Lin Qiye. Since the tavern owner's purpose was to perform the ritual in the air, it couldn't be too high off the ground, otherwise it would be difficult to determine whether he was within the range.
So the passenger plane began to fly at low altitude over Cangnan City.
Thanks to the relentless efforts of the Soul-Weaving Spider, they finally landed on the side of the tail of the plane. The howling wind made Lin Qiye's cloak flutter. The Soul-Weaving Spider looked down, shivered, and its spider legs began to tremble.
"Help! Help..."
Lin Qiye sighed helplessly, just about to say something to comfort him, when the Soul-Weaving Spider beneath him suddenly relaxed...
She was so frightened that she fainted.
The massive body instantly lost its grip and was dragged by the gale and gravity, carrying Lin Qiye as it slid rapidly to the side and downwards!
