Chapter 270: Powerless as a Chicken?
And their mentor, possessing such magical things, was definitely not going to have a problem next.
"I'm sorry, Senior Sister, we misunderstood you just now," Li Shuishui apologized to Zhong Ling.
She had said some harsh words to Zhong Ling just now because she was anxious.
"It's nothing."
Zhong Ling waved her hand, not minding at all, "Next, we need to think about what to do."
The surrounding area was filled with the sounds of people's fear, crying, and complaining, which was annoying.
But there were still some calm individuals, as well as flight attendants in the cabin trying to calm these passengers, though their efforts were not effective.
In such circumstances, Zhong Ling's elegant eyebrows furrowed slightly as she pondered the solution to the problem.
She believed that her mentor would surely resolve the issue at hand.
And she just needed to help her mentor manage the aftermath.
Calm the emotions of these passengers in the cabin.
If the emotions of these passengers became chaotic, it could easily lead to serious problems next.
"You all need to listen to me now."
In less than a minute, Zhong Ling had already thought of the next measures to take and looked at the other people in the first-class cabin.
The behavior of people in first-class was no different from those in economy – some were panicking, some were calm, and some were complaining.
Having money is one thing, but wealth does not immediately categorize people into two separate batches.
Essentially, there's not much difference between the two.
Zhong Ling addressed the people in first-class:
"Move to economy class first; I have something to say."
However, no one spoke, no one paid any attention to Zhong Ling.
Zhong Ling reined in her spoiled nature; at any other time, she would have proudly scolded these people, but she clearly knew that doing so now would only give the impression of being unreliable.
Zhong Ling's voice was cool and detached:
"You can choose not to listen to me, but you need to be aware that the hijackers have taken over, and if you're sitting in first-class, those hijackers will come for you first because you are the wealthiest."
As soon as Zhong Ling said this.
Everyone in the first-class cabin, no matter what their emotions were, no longer ignored Zhong Ling's words and immediately headed to economy class.
After the other first-class passengers moved to economy class, Zhong Ling led Li Shuishui, Zhao Tu, and God of Fortune Tang, the three of them, into economy class to start arranging tasks for them.
...
Wang Ye moved towards the cockpit, his form was like a shadow, swift and silent.
Yet even so, before Wang Ye had laid eyes on anyone, he heard the voice of a flight attendant over the intercom, followed by gunshots.
There was also the sound of a constant electric current coming from the broadcast.
Wang Ye's expression turned even more serious, and his speed increased.
He knew that taking longer to deal with these hijackers meant that, in the time that followed, more people might fall victim.
Very soon.
Wang Ye was about to reach the area where the cockpit was located.
Along the corridor, several individuals armed with guns stood erect, obviously there to guard against any incident.
"Hello, could you please tell me which way to the restroom?"
The moment Wang Ye saw these people, he stepped out before they could react, with an expression of someone urgently needing to go.
Wang Ye's acting was incredibly convincing.
The embarrassed look on his face while asking, and the subtle motion of his legs pressing together, immediately made them empathize with Wang Ye's feelings.
They actually began to ponder where the restroom might be...
In less than a second, these people reacted, but for Wang Ye, their reaction time was too late!
In that fraction of a second, Wang Ye could do so many things!
Wang Ye burst forth like an arrow leaving the bow, and before he even finished taking a breath, he was already at the side of the first person. In a blink, he had neutralized the first man.
Then,
came the second, the third.
Five people, in the moments they were stunned, were all taken down by Wang Ye, collapsing to the ground, unable to wake up for a while.
Without making a sound, Wang Ye looked in the direction of the cockpit. All he needed to do next was open the cockpit door and take care of the hijackers inside.
"Who's there?"
Just then, a voice sounded behind Wang Ye.
The moment the voice rang out, the hijackers who had appeared behind Wang Ye were ready to pull the trigger and take care of him.
However, it was as if Wang Ye had already known someone was behind him.
Before the hijackers could pull the trigger, Wang Ye's right hand flipped backward, and the silver needles in his hand shot out, immobilizing the hijackers behind him, preventing any movement.
The silver needles, once used for healing and saving lives, were now masterfully wielded by Wang Ye as weapons.
He didn't even need to look back; just by listening to the footsteps behind him, Wang Ye could determine their exact location and target their vital points precisely, without turning his head.
After dealing with the group behind him, Wang Ye assessed whether there were more footsteps. Once he confirmed that no one else was coming, he opened the door to the cockpit.
The cockpit door opened, and the pilot, upon seeing Wang Ye, immediately addressed him:
"Save me! I can't be in trouble; if anything happens to me, everyone on the plane will be in danger!"
Having noticed Wang Ye, the other people in the cockpit also acknowledged him. Seeing Wang Ye enter alone and unarmed, one of the hijackers cursed aloud:
"Damn it, are those people outside all useless, letting such a weakling in here?"
"Enough talk!"
The hijacker holding the pilot hostage, upon hearing this plea for help, slapped the pilot hard on the head, causing the pilot to grimace in pain.
And scolded the pilot:
"Keep quiet! Just land the plane at the location we specified earlier! If we find out the flight path you're taking is different from the one we ordered, then just wait for your death!"
"Alright, alright."
Being held hostage, the pilot could only respond in that moment.
From the communication signal, a sound resembling a signal interruption was heard. Looking at the extensive damage in front of him, with just one glance, Wang Ye knew that the basic infrastructure for contacting the ground had been destroyed.
It seemed that now, only emergency measures could be used.
