Chapter 60: Death Spin!
Time rewinds to a few minutes ago!
The south slope of Mount Everest!
Before deploying his parachute, although Chu Chen had made every possible preparation, he still encountered a death spin!
A death spin is a difficult problem frequently encountered by high-altitude skydivers!
To put it plainly, it is a high-speed body rotation triggered by the influence of air currents while the skydiver is diving at high altitude!
For high-altitude parachuting, this situation is extremely dangerous.
If not handled well, the consequences are very serious, especially in an extremely harsh environment like the south slope of Mount Everest!
At that time, Chu Chen had already dived to the appropriate altitude for deployment.
But just as he was about to open the pilot chute, the surrounding air currents suddenly changed, causing him to lose control of his body and begin spinning in the air!
During a death spin, a skydiver cannot deploy their parachute.
It was precisely for this reason that Chu Chen did not deploy his parachute!
Fortunately, this rotation did not last for a very long time.
Relying on the activation of his Berserk State and his superb parachuting skills, after only a short while, Chu Chen regained control of his body and successfully deployed the pilot chute and then the main canopy!
This deployment altitude was already extremely critical!
If he had been any later, he likely would have crashed into the Khumbu Glacier below!
If professional skydivers on Earth saw this sudden falling accident, they would definitely let out gasps of shock!
But in this world, because extreme sports are still relatively backward, many people do not know much about the sport of parachuting.
They didn't realize at all how dangerous the accident Chu Chen just encountered was, especially during the death spin; many people even thought he was just showing off.
At the time, the live stream chat was full of "666"!
Almost no one discovered the danger that existed within it!
Time returns to the present!
At this moment, after a period of descent, the Sagarmatha Wilderness, famous on the south slope in his previous life, finally entered Chu Chen's line of sight!
Seeing this, Chu Chen immediately began to use specific maneuvers to reduce the aerodynamic drag of the parachute canopy!
The next second.
As the drag decreased, the falling speed became faster and faster.
For a time, the ground beneath his feet turned into uniform lines, flying backward rapidly as if they were slides in a projector!
"Whoosh!"
Just like that.
After another moment.
As the altitude continued to drop, Chu Chen's feet became closer and closer to the ground.
In an instant, there was less than five meters left!
Seeing this, he hurriedly pulled in his core, preparing to land!
At the same time!
Just as he was preparing for the final landing, two Sherpa people who were grazing nearby discovered him!
Looking at this behemoth falling from the sky, the two Sherpa people stood motionless, their faces filled with expressions of disbelief!
The Sherpa people of this life have a reputation far inferior to those of his previous life.
They have lived in the deep mountains for generations, rarely having contact with the outside world, and have almost never heard of things like parachuting, let alone being able to imagine what Chu Chen was doing!
The faith of the Sherpa people is also Tibetan Buddhism.
They have always firmly believed that Mount Everest is an incarnation of Sachin, a heavenly tribulation lying across the Six Paths of Reincarnation.
Mortals are not allowed to go up there!
Unless they receive special permission from Sachin.
Right now, when they saw with their own eyes Chu Chen flying from the direction of the sacred mountain, both of them were stunned.
After completing the landing, Chu Chen also quickly discovered them.
Seeing this, he hurriedly walked over and greeted the two of them in the Sherpa language: "Hello!"
Hearing a familiar language, the two Sherpa people looked at each other.
After hesitating for a good while, one of the Sherpa people, who was forty or fifty years old, cautiously asked Chu Chen:
"Lord Sachin, where do you come from?"
Upon hearing this form of address, Chu Chen immediately understood the ins and outs of the matter and hurriedly explained:
"I am not any Lord Sachin; I am from Huaxia, and I jumped down from the top of the mountain."
The two Sherpa people looked at each other.
Judging by their expressions, it was clear they did not believe Chu Chen's words.
Seeing this, Chu Chen did not say anything more and smiled helplessly.
At this moment, in the live stream.
Seeing that Chu Chen could communicate with them without barriers, the chat exploded again:
【Holy crap!】
【What is God Chu saying to them?】
【If I'm not mistaken, these people should be Sherpa people from Nepal, right? It sounds like the Sherpa language!】
【What? God Chu actually even knows the Sherpa language!】
【Damn, how many languages does Chu Chen actually know?】
【At least five languages!】
【The most crucial part is that for every Language, he can reach the level of a native speaker; it's too powerful!】
【Awesome!】
Seeing that the two Sherpa did not believe his background.
Chu Chen did not offer too much explanation for this, instead getting straight to the point and asking them: "Friends, I need to go to Kathmandu; can you find a way to take me there?"
"Kathmandu? That is very far from here!" the young Sherpa said, puzzled.
"How far? A few hundred kilometers?"
"It is at the end of Sagarmatha; even if you were to fly, it would take a full day and night!"
Chu Chen was almost amused to the point of laughter by them.
He really did not know what to say.
The next second, before he could speak, the older Sherpa continued:
"Can this thing of yours really fly up into the sky?"
Chu Chen shook his head: "No. Because it is not a flight tool; it can only allow a person to jump down from a high place without suffering any harm, it cannot take off."
【What the hell, take off!】
【Haha, they aren't wrong, you know; since you can fly, why don't you just fly there?】
【Although the Language is the same, it feels like the two of them are still not on the same wavelength!】
【Laughing to death! Big brother, that's a parachute, how could it possibly fly?】
【Yes, yes, yes, that's exactly the feeling!】
After explaining for a while, Chu Chen asked again:
"Senior brother, you still haven't answered my question; can you help me leave this place?"
Hearing this, the young Sherpa interjected:
"That place is too far; I can only take you by horse to the town in Sagarmatha! If you are willing, I can take you there right now!"
Chu Chen thought for a moment:
"Alright, let's set off now."
The Sherpa are a nomadic people, very skilled at riding horses.
His horse was particularly similar to the small ponies of the Tibetan region.
Its pace was fast, and most importantly, it ran very steadily.
Sitting on the back, one could barely feel any jolting; it was even more comfortable than riding in a car, and in the blink of an eye, they had traveled several kilometers.
This marvelous experience was truly intoxicating, as if one were in a dreamlike world.
The Wind whistled past his ears, the scenery before his eyes retreated rapidly, and everything became so blurred and distant.
During this time on the road, while enjoying the beautiful scenery, Chu Chen was not idle; he directly summoned the system to check the rewards for this mission!
