Chapter 11 The strongest in Bo City, Zhan Kong!
…………
Lin Ze flailed his arms and legs in mid-air, trying to grab onto something, but there was nothing but empty air.
Just when Lin Ze was about to close his eyes and face the inevitable destruction, he was on the verge of death!
"grumble!!!"
High in the sky, the winter-feathered sparrow, which had been frozen in fear, had its fear instantly replaced by an extremely strong instinct to protect its master the moment it saw its master fall.
It let out an extremely mournful cry, its wings suddenly tucked back, and its entire body transformed into an ice-blue arrow, diving at an almost suicidal speed to chase after Lin Ze, who was falling wildly below!
Faster! Even faster!
The wing-based energy within the Winter Feather Sparrow was pushed to its limit at this moment, creating a sharp sonic boom through the air.
The ground is getting closer and closer.
Thirty meters... twenty meters... ten meters!
Lin Ze could even see the extremely sharp-edged blue boulder below.
Just as he was less than five meters from the ground, an icy blue afterimage flashed across Lin Ze's head like lightning.
"Bang!"
Two sharp claws, as if forged from refined steel, gripped Lin Ze's shoulder with extreme precision and unwavering ferocity, precisely and firmly striking the bone-spur wolf-hide armor!
The immense downward inertia and the upward lift that the winter-feathered finches were desperately trying to generate collided violently at that moment.
"Ugh!"
Lin Ze felt a sharp pain in both shoulders. The incredibly tough warrior-level armor creaked under the terrifying tearing force, as if it would shatter at any moment. His internal organs were squeezed together by the sudden stop, and he almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
Fortunately, it managed to catch it in the end.
"Whoosh—"
Then it staggered and glided toward a relatively flat patch of grass not far away.
"thump!"
Exhausted, the Winter Feather Sparrow lost its balance when it was still more than a meter above the ground. Together with Lin Ze, the two of them fell awkwardly onto the soft grass and rolled several meters away due to inertia.
"Cough cough... cough cough cough..."
Lin Ze lay sprawled on the grass, panting heavily. His face was ashen, his entire body was soaked in cold sweat, and his heart was pounding wildly in his chest, like an overloaded engine.
survived.
They really survived.
In that instant, he even figured out where he would be buried.
"grumble……"
A faint bird song, filled with guilt and grievance, rang in Lin Ze's ears.
Lin Ze turned his head and saw the Winter Feather Sparrow perched not far from him. This large, ice-blue bird, which had been so proud and lively in the sky just moments before, now had its head drooping and its wings hanging limply to the ground.
It looked at Lin Ze cautiously with its black gem-like eyes, its gaze filled with self-reproach, fear, and even a hint of dread of being abandoned by its master.
It knew that its cowardice and mistakes had almost killed its closest master.
Seeing Dong Yuque's distraught appearance, as if she had committed a terrible mistake, the anger that had risen in Lin Ze's heart due to the shock instantly vanished.
He endured the aching pain that felt like his bones were about to fall apart, slowly sat up from the grass, and then reached out and gently placed his hand on the winter finches' fluffy head, stroking it along the texture of its feathers.
"Okay, okay, it's alright, it's alright."
Lin Ze's tone was surprisingly gentle. Instead of blaming you, he softly comforted you, "It's not your fault, Xiao Dong. That guy's aura was terrifying. Not only you, but even I was scared to death. You overcame your fear and rushed down to save me at the last moment; you did a great job. Didn't we land safely?"
"grumble?"
The Winter Feather Sparrow raised its head, looking at Lin Ze with some disbelief. It seemed to be confirming whether its master was truly not angry.
"I really didn't blame you." Lin Ze forced a smile that looked more like a grimace, pointing to the deformed but still sturdy armor on his shoulder. "Look, the quality of this suit that Lao Li made is really good. I didn't suffer a single scratch. This is our first time flying together, so a few mistakes are normal. We'll just have more practice in the future."
Feeling the warmth and sincere comfort from its master's hand, the fear in Winter Feather Sparrow's eyes slowly dissipated. It gently nuzzled Lin Ze's hand with its beak, letting out a low chirp, as if vowing never to repeat the same mistake.
Although the Winter Feather Sparrow possesses the strength of a servant-level advanced cultivator, it is still essentially just a child, and its control over its power is far too poor. If it had any better control over its power, even if it had fallen, it could have easily saved itself, instead of ending up in this sorry state…
Just as the person and the bird were comforting each other and calming their emotions on the grass, a strong gust of air came from mid-air.
call! !
The man in the military green coat with a full beard folded his wind wings and landed steadily on the grass in front of Lin Ze, like a light leaf.
As he landed, the turbulent fire magic aura in the surrounding air subsided, but the iron-blooded aura of a soldier emanating from the man still exerted an invisible pressure.
Lin Ze immediately stood up alertly, instinctively shielding Dong Yuque behind him. He had experienced firsthand the man's fiery temper, ready to unleash a powerful punch at the slightest provocation.
The man ignored Lin Ze's wariness. He first looked Lin Ze up and down, his gaze lingering for a moment on the finely crafted bone-spiked wolf skin armor on Lin Ze's shoulder, before turning his attention to the Winter Feather Sparrow hiding behind Lin Ze.
"Ice attribute, flight ability, small in size but extremely powerful, and that protective instinct it displayed just now... What kind of demon is this? I've been in Bo City for so many years, how come I've never seen anything like it before?"
The man stroked his prickly beard, a hint of intense curiosity flashing in his eyes. Then, he looked at Lin Ze, a somewhat rugged smile suddenly spreading across his previously stern face.
"Kid, not bad skills. You didn't even wet your pants after falling from that height. Are you a summoning mage?"
Upon hearing the question, Lin Ze's heart stirred slightly.
A full beard, a military overcoat, wings of wind, fire magic, and this seemingly rough but actually shrewd demeanor... This iconic image is absolutely unique in Bo City!
"Bocheng Military Intelligence Bureau, cut through the void!" Lin Ze silently called out the other party's name in his heart.
However, on the surface, Lin Ze still pretended to be shaken and nodded: "Yes, senior. My name is Lin Ze, and I am a student at Tianlan Magic High School. This is my summoned beast, it is called Winter Feather Sparrow. We were just practicing flying, we didn't expect to disturb you, senior, I'm really sorry."
