High in the sky, Lin Yi flew over the ocean and lowered his altitude so that he could see the ocean view.

This wasn't the first time he'd seen such a sight. In the Marvel Universe, after he learned to fly, they'd flown over the ocean together to admire the magnificent views.

But this isn't the Marvel Universe; this is the deepest haven in Lin Yi's heart, a place he thought he would never return to.

Flying here, although the scenery is so similar, the feeling it gives him is completely different.

Below them stretched the endless deep blue ocean, with a clear arc of light on the horizon at the edge of their vision. This scene amazed Lin Xiao, who was in his arms.

She had done the same thing on international flights, looking down at the ocean, and even took photos and videos through the windows, but that kind of interaction was always separated by the heavy fuselage, and the field of vision was not wide enough.

Being held in someone's arms, her body suspended thousands of meters in the air at high speed, felt completely different from sitting in an airplane. However, she didn't understand why she could only hear a slight wind, and felt no air resistance at all…

She recovered from her initial shock and disbelief, but her mind was still somewhat blank. After all, she really hadn't expected Lin Yi's talk of returning home to be so simple and straightforward—directly flying across the ocean to go home.

How could he fly for so long? Did he have an engine and fuel inside his body? Lin Xiao didn't know.

"You...you're not really Superman, are you?" Lin Xiao looked up and couldn't help but ask, her voice trembling slightly, unable to hide her excitement and disbelief.

She gripped her phone nervously, watching the sea of ​​clouds and ocean rush past her at a dizzying speed. Fortunately, there was a vast ocean below; if she were flying at that speed in low-altitude airspace over a city, the rapidly receding blurry scenery would probably have made her dizzy and cause her to perform a human fountain act.

Of course, Lin Yi wouldn't be speeding at several times the speed of sound in the low-altitude airspace of the city.

The upward angle and the sunlight bathed Lin Yi's profile in a golden glow.

"Superman?" Lin Yi's gaze shifted from the distant sea to her face, and the corners of his mouth seemed to curve slightly. "I don't know either, but their abilities seem about the same."

Lin Yi was in a good mood after returning to Blue Star and confirming that this was indeed the original universe. Although the potential dangers still hung over his mind like dark clouds, the sense of security and joy of being home was still very real. Talking with his simple-minded fellow villager Lin Xiao was enough to ease his tense nerves.

Lin Xiao nodded, seemingly understanding, and subconsciously raised her phone to record the magnificent scene beneath her, only to realize that her phone was still live-streaming. She had thought that such an outrageous situation would be forcibly shut down...

The number of viewers had already surpassed two million and was still pouring in, but the real-time scrolling comments weren't as dense and frantic as before. Looking at the number of viewers, Lin Xiao guessed it; there were probably technical limitations restricting the interval and number of comments each user could post.

It goes without saying that the platform or relevant departments have already intervened to control the situation.

"It's...it really is flying! The background and the lighting, there's no way it could be calculated in real time, right?"

"With this much viewership, are there still people who doubt that this is scripted?"

"Hey, camera pan down a bit, where did it fly to?"

"Who exactly is this guy? An alien friend? Or one of our secretly developed super soldiers?"

"I told you long ago that it was true, and now you still doubt whether you can light a cigarette on the far side of the moon?"

"Can any experts analyze this... Holy crap, what is that, a bird?"

"Holy crap, fighter jets! Our fighter jets! Two of them!"

"Hey anchor, focus the camera closer! What model is this? I've never seen it before!"

"??? It's been censored? The official team has intervened?"

On the screen, a blurry image of a sleek, futuristic fighter jet flashed by, and in that instant, it was quickly covered with a layer of dynamic mosaic, leaving only the blurry silhouette of the aircraft.

Lin Yi had already spotted the two fighter jets. They cut in from above the clouds and were approaching him at an extremely high speed before adjusting their attitude and turning.

Are they here to pick someone up from the airport? Yeah, I guess you could say they're here to pick someone up from the airport.

The two fighter jets were flying at around Mach 3. His super-vision scanned them, and their appearance was unlike any fighter jet he had ever seen before; he guessed they were a new, undisclosed model. Moreover, judging from their construction and engine condition, the speed they were currently maintaining was probably not their limit.

With his super hearing activated, he overheard an internal communication from a fighter jet.

"Report to Command 1, target has entered visual range, current speed... Mach 6, repeat, target speed Mach 6, requesting further instructions."

……

Inside the joint command center, on the screen in front of General He, the dot representing Lin Yi displayed Mach 6.2. He frowned, his fingers tapping lightly on the armrest of his seat.

Should pilots fly two of the latest Mighty Dragon-20A test aircraft at full speed to catch up? Theoretically, their safe cruising speed limit could approach Mach 4, but it still wouldn't be able to keep up with Lin Yi's Mach 6 speed.

It's not a question of whether to chase or not, it's that we can't catch up!

Just as he was pondering this, the pilot's slightly hurried voice rang out again: "Report to Command 1, target speed is decreasing, Mach 5.5, Mach 5... Mach 4... Mach 3!"

"The target is actively decelerating and maintaining the same speed as our aircraft! Currently, the target is approximately 100 meters to our left!"

The pilot glanced at Lin Yi's tiny dot, then looked at the monitor screen inside the fighter jet. The distance was close enough that Lin Yi and Lin Xiao's appearances and figures were clearly displayed on the screen, causing his lips to twitch slightly for a moment. Looking at those young faces flying at high speed over the ocean, it was a bit too surreal.

In the joint command center, General He frowned, but breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing the pilot's report. He no longer believed that the slowdown was due to Lin Yi's insufficient energy or inability to maintain such a high speed. Lin Yi's actions were a signal of friendliness and openness to communication.

He prepared to order the aircraft to maintain speed and attempt to communicate with and guide the target, but the pilot's voice rang out again, sounding somewhat hoarse: "Report! The target requests communication. He's asking us where he needs to land. Repeat..."

General He's pupils suddenly contracted, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes. He leaned forward slightly: "A phone call? You initiated a radio call? The target was carrying communication equipment? Requesting a call? He cracked our encrypted channel?" General He's voice was stern; such unauthorized contact could have unpredictable consequences.
