Early morning.
There were no lights on in the room, and it was dark and gloomy.
On the desk phone, Child Bell, the numbers silently jumped to 6:00.
In the corner, the TV screen flickered with faint fluorescent light, and the newscaster's slightly deep voice echoed in the silence:
"According to Central Meteorological Observatory's prediction, from March 12 to 14, due to the joint influence of Cold and Warm Airflow, my country's Jiangnan, South China and other areas will experience a large-scale heavy rainfall process."
"There will be heavy to heavy rain in some areas, which may be accompanied by short-term thunderstorms, strong winds, hail and other strong convective weather. Citizens are advised to pay attention to travel safety and try to avoid unnecessary outings..."
There was a slight and regular "creak" sound coming from the floor.
A girl's figure appeared in Living Room. She was sitting on Wheelchair, pushing the wheel rim with both hands, and slowly came to the window.
Then he stretched out his pale fingers and carefully opened a gap in the heavy curtain.
Outside the window, there is a world torn apart by violent forces.
The sky and the sea are mixed into a chaotic gray and black, and the boundaries are blurred.
Big raindrops fell crazily, forming a dense rain curtain, cutting the city buildings in the distance into pieces, as if they would be submerged at any time.
Coastal Highway, which is usually busy with traffic, is empty at the moment.
Only the rolling turbid waves occasionally crossed the embankment and slapped the road.
The girl has a pair of extremely beautiful eyes, but they look dull, like dust-covered gems.
There was a trace of numbness and weariness that was inconsistent with his age on his face that was almost transparent.
She just watched quietly, as if she was used to this depressing scene.
Suddenly, her pupils shrank slightly, then suddenly dilated and shone.
On that beach that was ravaged by the violent storm, it was almost impossible to see anything.
But she vaguely... captured an extremely faint and extremely fast figure.
There are actually people... running in this bad weather that almost destroys everything?
The girl rubbed her eyes, wondering if she was hallucinating because she stayed in the dark room for a long time.
At this moment, Beach from Clearwater Bay.
The strong wind gathered the dark clouds, like an angry beast roaring in the sky.
The waves were completely enraged and turned into walls of water several meters high, slamming onto the beach with thunderous force.
Amidst the continuous boom Crying Sound, it seemed as if the earth was shaking.
The beach has long been turned into a muddy swamp due to the erosion of heavy rain and waves.
And in this land that is ravaged by the power of nature.
A lonely figure, like a sharp arrow leaving the string, broke through the heavy rain curtain and was running at an astonishing speed.
Big raindrops hit his shiny head intensively and slid down rapidly along the lines of his resolute face.
Then it mixed with the sweat beads on the neck and chest, making the whole body soaked, and it was impossible to distinguish between them.
"Huchi--"
Fang Cheng took a deep breath, raised his hand and wiped his face, shaking off the rain and sweat that blocked his vision.
The steps under my feet never paused at all, they were still firm and rhythmic.
He was shirtless, wearing only a pair of tight black sports shorts.
The bronze skin reflected a faint luster under the heavy rain, and every piece seemed to contain terrifying explosive power.
The oncoming strong wind brought with it a suffocating sense of oppression, like an invisible thick wall, blocking every step forward.
In this harsh environment, if your body is not strong enough, let alone running, you may be blown over.
Every breath is more like forcibly inhaling the cold rain and the salty smell of Mud and Sand into the lungs, bringing a biting chill and burning pain.
But Fang Cheng has long been accustomed to the extreme conditions that temper the physical body.
Breathing Technique is running quietly in the body, and the chest is rising and falling rhythmically.
He quickly adjusted and blocked out the violent intrusion of wind and rain, absorbing only the thin oxygen in the air.
Aura begins to become gentle and deep.
The "runway" under your feet has turned into a swamp. Every step you take will sink deeply, bringing up a piece of turbid muddy water.
This morning exercise run was several times more difficult than any other time.
The calf muscles and core muscles must maintain a high degree of tension at all times in order to maintain the balance of the body without losing most of the friction, avoid stepping on the air and slipping, and generate sufficient forward momentum.
However, there are various difficulties that are daunting to ordinary people.
In Fang Cheng's heart, it is like a catalyst, igniting the most primitive desires and the wildest fighting spirit deep in his heart.
Not only did he not feel fear, but he ran faster and faster, becoming more excited as he ran!
Lifting his left arm, Fang Cheng glanced at the numbers on the Sports Watch screen on his wrist.
15.98 meters/second.
This instantaneous speed has surpassed the record set by the greatest Sprint Running athlete in human history at his peak.
I remember the legendary sports star known as "Lightning", whose best record for 100 meters was 9 seconds 58.
After conversion, the average speed is about 10.44 meters per second, and the sprint stage is 12.3 meters per second, which is approximately 45 kilometers per hour.
That is the limit of physical fitness and speed that humans can achieve in the field of sports competition, and it is the pinnacle that countless athletes pursue throughout their lives.
But, that's just the peak of ordinary people.
Far from the limit that humans should really reach...
Fang Cheng looked forward with his eyes, and suddenly shot out two rays of light, penetrating the dense rain curtain.
Then he took a deep breath and his chest swelled.
At this moment, all the muscles in the body were like clockwork Rebar, tense instantly.
Then--
Explode without reservation!
Bang--
With a dull trampling sound, a clearly visible deep pit suddenly opened up in the sand beneath his feet, and Mud and Sand mixed with rainwater splashed around.
The next second, the raging waves rushed up violently, submerging the newly formed pothole.
Fang Cheng's body had long since turned into a black afterimage that was so blurry that it was almost invisible, shooting forward at a speed that completely exceeded common sense.
At the same time, the numbers on the Sports Watch screen were beating like an out-of-control dashboard and kept soaring.
In the blink of an eye, one jaw-dropping barrier after another has been broken!
Fang Cheng was galloping through the storm at a speed comparable to that of Sports Car.
The impact faced is naturally unimaginable by ordinary people.
The oncoming raindrops are no longer gentle Baptism.
It seemed that they turned into countless small but powerful bullets, which were shot densely on his body and face.
Every blow brought a clear and strong stinging sensation, as if it was going to pierce through his strong muscles.
Fang Cheng simply closed his eyes and relied entirely on his keen perception that was far beyond ordinary people to quickly travel through this violent and disorderly world.
The strong air flow caused by the high-speed running carried the rain all over the sky, forming "water walls" visible to the naked eye in front of him.
Every time he charged forward, it was as if he was using his powerful flesh and blood body to break through these tough barriers again and again.
The wall of water was constantly being shattered, and then quickly regrouped.
During running, the body consumes and dissipates heat, which will be lost in the wind and rain.
If this continues, a normal person's body temperature will drop quickly, and it won't be long before they fall into a state of hypothermia Danger.
But Fang Cheng's body turned red, and the pores on the surface of his skin even began to emit wisps of white smoke.
That's because the majestic Vitality in his body is running at high speed, and it's also a phenomenon caused by the intense friction between the body surface and the air.
The amazing heat directly evaporates the cold rain hitting the body and the sweat oozing out of oneself.
Under this extreme speed and the violent pressure of nature.
Fang Cheng did not feel any pain, but experienced an unprecedented level of joy.
As if breaking free from the invisible shackles, the souls are jumping for joy in the wind and rain.
If you are not running at extreme speed, you need to maintain absolute concentration.
He even wanted to look up to the sky and let out a long roar to vent the excitement in his chest.
The vast expanse of heaven and earth.
On one side is the turbid and roaring black sea.
On one side is the silhouette of a city shrouded in violent storms and dimly lit.
And right between the sea and the city, on the narrow beach.
A small but incredibly tough figure kept passing through the wind and rain.
Pass through the seemingly insurmountable natural barriers.
Until the whole person turns into a hurricane and blends into it.
The physical body challenges the limit, and the soul also enjoys the transformation brought by the limit.
Suddenly, a flash of light, brighter than the lightning flashing across the sky, flickered on.
Fang Cheng's heart moved, and his running figure remained stable.
He just focused his gaze slightly and turned to the source of the light.
A light blue Prompt Information quietly emerged in the rain curtain:
[Congratulations, after unremitting efforts and extreme challenges, your skills have successfully broken through and reached Expert Level]
[Running LV1(0/250)]
[Get Enhancement Reward, Skill Special Effect:"Gale Force"]
Fang Cheng's eyes blurred by the rain also shone brightly.
Like a blazing flame, it blooms with a compelling light.
The figure that was running like lightning suddenly stopped while running at high speed.
The strong wind brought by the strong inertia briefly pushed away the dense rainwater around it to an area close to Vacuum.
The wind and rain are still raging crazily, as if there will be no end.
Fang Cheng gasped slightly and sprayed out two clearly visible white arrows from his nostrils.
Then he looked at the Panel information that came to mind and read the new Skill Special Effect description carefully:
[Gale Force]
[When you run, you seem to be Gale Wind itself whizzing by. In the process, your balance and Coordination will increase by 50%, and the damage caused by the outside world will be reduced by 50%]
[Note, the minimum running speed must reach at least 10 meters/second to trigger this special effect]
10 meters per second?
After reading the skill description, Fang Cheng couldn't help but grin. His smile looked particularly cheerful and confident in the heavy rain.
Then his eyes flashed slightly, and his feet suddenly Exert Force!
Phew!
Without the slightest delay or preparation, his figure once again turned into an afterimage and shot out.
But this time, Fang Cheng did not choose to cover his head and sprint forward in a straight line.
Instead, he quickly turned a few S-shaped turns on the beach, and his movements were as smooth as a top racing driver performing an extreme drift performance.
Even at the moment of turning at high speed, he made some twisting movements that seemed to others to be completely contrary to common sense of physics.
Then, in the next second, it stopped steadily with almost no buffering, causing a splash of muddy water.
During the actual experience of running Skill Special Effect, Fang Cheng felt that a subtle and difficult-to-catch airflow seemed to be generated around his body.
Just like the prototype of the legendary "Riding the Wind", but more restrained and controllable.
Whether it is the acceleration before running or the deceleration buffer after finishing the run, everything has become smoother and easier than before.
It can start and brake almost instantly.
Moreover, in the state of sprinting with full strength, the control of body posture has also reached a new height.
Many subtle movements that were difficult to complete before, or required deliberate adjustments, can now be completed naturally, thus greatly reducing unnecessary physical energy consumption.
Especially when making high-speed changes of direction, Fang Cheng can clearly feel that part of the influence of motion inertia is offset by this wonderful air flow, making the movement transition more smooth and without any sense of stagnation.
Therefore, the overall running speed has also been truly improved.
According to the data analysis recorded by Sports Watch on the wrist, the peak instantaneous speed that just burst out has reached 356 kilometers per hour.
In the past, on a track with normal weather conditions and good road conditions, the maximum speed that I could reach by sprinting with all my strength was just barely touching the threshold of 300 kilometers per hour, which was roughly equivalent to the Extreme Speed of some top-end Sports Cars.
As for the harsh environment of violent wind and rain, affected by various resistances, the maximum speed was greatly reduced, only about 240 kilometers per hour.
But now, with the 50% balance brought by "Gale Force" and the improvement of Coordination.
Not only is the degree of body control more subtle.
It also completely overcame the Negative Impact caused by the harsh environment and restored the running speed to normal levels, or even exceeded it.
This "Gale Force" and Skill Special Effect are simply equivalent to adding a powerful BUFF to yourself while running. The effect is amazing.
You must know that the balance of the body, Coordination, is related to Agility Attribute.
And his own agility Base Attribute is as high as 40 points.
After getting a 50% increase, it is an astonishing 60 points!
In other words, as long as you are in a running state, your body's balance and Coordination can continuously cross two levels, reaching a height equivalent to 60 points of agility.
The actual effect of this Skill Special Effect in the hands of Fang Cheng is far beyond what Physical Quality ordinary track and field athletes can compare with.
In addition, the damage caused by the outside world is reduced by 50%, as if an invisible "Wind Guard" has been applied.
Greatly reduces the risk of injury while running at ultra-high speeds.
With this Skill Special Effect, combined with it, the perception ability is far beyond that of ordinary people.
Fang Cheng is confident that even in crowded downtown areas, it can shuttle flexibly like a fish to avoid unnecessary collisions and troubles.
The storm in the sky showed no signs of letting up, but intensified.
The wind was howling and the rain was pouring, lashing everything around.
Fang Cheng gasped slightly, his feet standing firmly on the beach that was constantly washed by the waves, as if they were rooted.
He faced the rough sea, and the Water Breathing Technique in his body was quietly running, quickly regulating the turbulent Internal Breath, and restoring the physical strength consumed by the extreme run just now.
Huge waves several meters high hit the shore one after another, stirring up water foam all over the sky. The sound was terrifying, as if they were about to swallow up the entire world.
In front of this destructive force of nature, the figure on the beach is so small that it seems that it will be torn to pieces and swallowed up at any time.
However, Fang Cheng's eyes were shining with uncontrollable excitement and anticipation.
A short rest allows the strength in the body to return quickly like a tide.
He stood up straight again and looked around.
The wind and rain are like darkness, and the sky is as dark as eternal night.
The city lights in the distance have long been completely cut off by the endless curtain of rain.
As far as the eye could see, it was as if he was alone in the entire world, facing off against the violent nature.
"The current environment..."
Fang Cheng The corners of his mouth slowly raised into a smile full of wildness and fighting spirit:
"Isn't this the perfect time to completely unleash your body's power and test the true power of "Infinite Combo"?"
While muttering to himself in a low voice, his sharp gaze suddenly passed through the heavy rain curtain and directed towards the next huge wave coming towards him.
