He graduated with top honors from the Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs.
He learned calculus and radar cross section algorithms.
I also learned how to precisely shoot down enemy planes at Mach 2 in flight simulators.
He only trusts himself.
Having been raised within the modern military industrial system, he had long since dismissed the fairy tales of his childhood as nothing more than hallucinations stemming from post-traumatic stress disorder in veterans.
They even scoffed at it.
myth?
Faced with modern technology that includes phased-array radar, satellite guidance, and stealth coatings.
Myths are nothing more than lullabies used by uncivilized ancestors to lull children to sleep.
Humanity has conquered the sky and can decide the life and death of others beyond visual range.
But now...
Hall peered through the hatch at the dark warship hovering helplessly above the clouds.
Faced with this overwhelming force, modern science, which humanity takes pride in, is unable to even protect itself.
Redemption?
Miracle?
It's all a fucking joke.
Hall closed his eyes in despair, his fingers slowly sliding off the joystick.
Silently waiting for the moment when the body turns to ashes in the beam of light.
However.
What he received, however, was a sound that seemed to roll down from the heavens.
It sounded like the resounding clang of a sword hilt striking a bronze bell.
"When-------!!!!"
The sound shook the heavens and pierced the headwinds at an altitude of ten thousand meters.
Beyond the noise-reducing layer of the F-22A's titanium canopy, a sacred rhythm resonated in the Hall's mind, like a resounding bell.
Hall suddenly opened his eyes.
A close-up macro view, looking straight at the outside of the monitor.
The black ship that had been locked onto his front suddenly had a blazing, dazzling golden chain appear out of nowhere!
Hundred zhang, hundred zhang!
Crimson gold forged in the sea of clouds!
The daylight, as if sliced off from Helios's eye, leaped away on the rope like a living thing.
As the wind whistled and churned, millions of tons of billowing clouds were crushed, leaving a deep gash.
"Click!"
The lasso drew a precise arc in mid-air, looping around the krypton ship with perfect accuracy, and became entangled on its glider!
Next second!
The long rope taut, and the entire void seemed to be pulled down by a tremendous force, pressing down an inch.
The black boat, which had been hovering steadily, was pulled by a divine force as vast as a mountain at the other end of the lasso.
Like a dragonfly tethered to a fingertip, it plummeted uncontrollably into the depths of the clouds!
Following the clues and tracing back quickly --
Hall's breathing stopped.
Atop the sea of clouds ahead stood a figure he had always thought existed only in "fairy tales".
Her grandfather called her --
Wonder Woman
The person who arrived was none other than Diana.
The Sikkimese pattern, with its breastplate and front plate, accentuates the lithe, leopard-like physique, creating a sexy and imposing silhouette.
The bronze greaves extended along the long legs.
Under the slanting clouds and pale sunlight, the chilling air howled and churned, tousling her long, flowing black hair.
He swung his sword, stripping away all crowns.
Tears fall, and all beings are blind.
Eyes like deep pools, gently closed by a long breeze.
"Why..."
A long sigh.
Her gaze sharpened, and her brows furrowed.
Its body is light and its posture is agile, treading on the rolling, leaden clouds, like a doe patrolling the clouds on the mountaintop.
Rapidly, instantly...
With a slight tremor of her wrist, the Lasso of Truth rippled through the air in a golden vortex.
Then, his body swayed slightly.
The boots treaded on the swirling clouds in the air, the toes lightly touching the tips of the cloud peaks.
"Thump!!"
The violent airflow beneath her feet was shattered into a swirling mist by the force of the impact.
Diana made a gesture with her left hand, then suddenly pulled back her bronze wrist.
The golden Lasso of Truth, like a rainbow piercing through the haze, plunged straight into the dark, stormy clouds high above.
"Whoosh!!"
The lasso instantly clamped down on a nascent cloud pillar within the lightning-infused magma!
Using the centripetal force of the contraction, Diana was lifted into the air!
Shake again, then rise again!
She used the lasso to repeatedly entangle herself and gain leverage between the clouds and the thunderstorm.
It drew a flowing line several miles long in the void, piercing the sky and soaring into the heavens!
The wind is blowing and the thunder is booming!
" My God..."
Hall muttered absentmindedly.
Two streams of tears flowed uncontrollably from his eyes.
Grandfather was telling the truth... it's a fairy tale...
It's all fucking real...
In the blink of an eye, the other Krypton ship, which had been patrolling the flank, finally reacted.
[Unknown high-energy organic life form detected!]
[Threat Level: Extremely High!]
"Swish!!"
Several assault boats forcibly disconnected the inertial suppressor, and the fuselage began to break through the restrictions, moving sideways at an initial velocity of Mach 8.
Acceleration!
After switching positions, the plasma cannon instantly turned its muzzle and locked onto Diana, who was falling through the air using the lasso.
Next second!
Two dark beams of light tore through the sky and hurtled towards us!
Diana, suspended in mid-air, neither flinched nor dodged.
She gave a soft hum.
Tuck in your stomach, twist your waist, and rotate your body in mid-air.
Agile as a female leopard treading a stream, moving with the grace of flowing clouds and water.
In the 0.001 seconds it took for the black light to strike her, Diana opened her arms wide and violently made a "wrong" gesture in front of her chest!
"When-------!!!!"
A second, resounding melody, like the grandest bell, erupted from where the two dull silver bracelets collided!
Immediately afterwards!
A semi-transparent holy light, spanning dozens of feet, suddenly spread out in concentric circles.
The two beams of black light were actually deflected by this sacred field the instant they collided with the silver bracelet.
The terrifying shockwave was deflected to both sides of the void!
Thump! Thump!
The scattered plasma streams carved two long, gaping holes into the sea of clouds behind them.
At the same instant she used the force to deflect the attack, Diana swiftly slapped it with her bare hand!
The Lasso of Truth, which was originally entangled in the thunderclouds, was pulled back by her as it contracted to its limit.
Then, like a golden whip stretching across the sky, it coiled back and swirled, precisely "wrapping" the Krypton pod that was attacking her!
"Return."
Diana let out a soft moan.
She gripped the rope with one hand, her body plummeting violently in mid-air, using herself as a fulcrum.
They swung that airship, weighing tens of tons, around like a hammer at an altitude of ten thousand meters!
"Huff--Huff--Huff!!"
The hundred-meter-long lasso shattered the stratosphere's solid currents, producing an over-frequency roar!
Under the terrifying centripetal force, the airship tumbled and left many afterimages.
Then, Diana gracefully spun half a circle in the air, her right arm muscles slightly contracting beneath her arm guard.
Suddenly loosen your grip!
"Boom--!!"
The assault boat, which was swung around like a blur, carried a violent kinetic energy of nearly Mach 10.
She slammed it down like a discus into another wingman's aircraft that had just broken free of the lasso!
