Chapter 68 Finding the Moon at a Height of 30,000 Feet
Everyone's equipment is ready, and it will take half an hour before the plane takes off.
There are a lot of trivial things to do before departure. The official members of Team B are all busy at this time, so Long Zhan is the easiest to do as a foreign aid.
"Hey, Long, come here and do a favor. Give our Doctor Death on-site teaching. He is almost scared to tears. You will take him skydiving then, so you can communicate with him first."
Sonny needed to hand over to two explosion experts, so he could only hand over the doctor who had not skipped HAHO to Long Zhan.
"OK, leave it to me."
Long Zhan was not a lazy person, so he strode towards Dr. Lucian who was at a loss.
People who do research spend their time in the laboratory, and it is normal for them to be in poor physical condition and unable to skydive, even if the person doing research is from the CIA.
Lucian must not be allowed to do extreme high-altitude skydiving like HAHO alone, because it is no different from letting him die.
Double jumping became an inevitable choice.
The youngest ones do the most work. This continues from the SEALs to the DG, and has become an unspoken naval tradition.
Clay was unable to participate in this operation, so naturally it was Long Zhan's turn to shoulder the task.
HAHO is originally one of the top ten extreme sports in the world, and its danger is undoubted. Adding the double jump adds double buffs.
For the safety of his own life, Long Zhan felt that it was necessary to teach Lucian a lesson.
"Hello, my name is Long, nice to meet you."
Long Zhan introduced himself with a smile, trying to make himself as approachable as possible to avoid scaring the skinny monkey Dr. Lucian with his overly strong body.
"Nice to meet you."
Dr. Lucien raised his head to look at the dragon battle, with a bit of fear in his eyes. After all, the size difference between the two was too big, and the pressure from the dragon battle on him was too strong.
Standing in front of Long Zhan, who was as strong as a brown bear, he felt as fragile as a piece of Japanese tofu.
"Relax, there's no need to be so nervous."
Long Zhan stretched out his two palm-leaf-sized hands, pressed lightly on Dr. Lucian's shoulders, squeezed and comforted him: "Come on, come on, relax your body, don't tighten your muscles so much.
We are now a pair, and we will complete HAHO together later. If you don’t want to fall to the ground and turn into pulp with me.
The first thing you have to do is to relax your stiff body and stop being like a stone."
Long Zhan's strong body can give people extreme oppression, and at the same time, under the logical thinking that the strong equals a safe haven, it can also bring people a strong sense of trust.
Dr. Lucian's tense body finally relaxed under Long Zhan's comfort.
Obviously, he believed in his heart that Long Zhan, who looked very powerful at first glance, would be able to bring it safely from the plane to the ground.
The first step of relaxing the body is completed, and the dragon battle begins the second step.
"e on, come here."
Long Zhan asked Dr. Lucien to follow him to the preparation area at the rear hatch of the cabin, and pulled him to his chest, simulating a tandem jump.
"Let's practice the entire high-altitude exit process in advance."
Long Zhan put his hands on Lucian's shoulders from behind, pushing him forward gently, and said as he walked: "We will wait in this preparation area, and when the skydiving frame opens, we will slowly move forward like this.
[To be honest, I have been using Yeguo to read and catch up on books recently. I can switch sources and read aloud with many sounds. www. Android and Apple are available.]
Keep walking, keep walking, don't stop or run, keep a steady pace and keep your body stable.
When you almost reach the edge, stop and close your eyes. Don't look down. Just stand there and do nothing.
When I tap your shoulder twice in succession, you still keep your eyes closed and your body begins to lean forward.
Soon you will have a strong feeling of weightlessness. Don't panic or move around. If the equipment is damaged, one of us will go to see God.
Just keep your eyes closed and don't do anything, just leave everything to me.
Until I tap your shoulder twice again to give you a signal that you are about to land. Then you open your eyes to welcome the small impact of landing.
When landing, remember to bend your legs slightly and never stretch your knees too straight or too hard. Otherwise, don't blame me for not reminding you if your leg breaks.
This is all you need to do during the entire skydiving process, and nothing else can be done except these, do you understand?"
Long Zhan was very detailed and pointed out all the things that needed attention.
Dr. Lucien basically only needs to walk a few steps and then sleep with his eyes closed the whole time. It can be said to be the most relaxing HAHO mode in history.
"I should understand."
As a senior CIA talent, Lucian's memory must be no problem.
But his answer was not confident, and he was obviously still a little nervous.
Long Zhan could understand Lucian's nervousness. After all, he excluded the status of a senior CIA expert and was actually no different from an ordinary person.
If an ordinary person is asked to jump from a height of 10,000 meters, anyone with a normal IQ will be scared.
Not to mention those who are afraid of heights.
In order to make Lucian more confident, and also for the two of them to land on the ground smoothly, feet first, instead of falling into meatloaf in Syria.
Long Zhan took the trouble to take Lucian with him and rehearsed the parachuting process over a dozen times.
Sonny witnessed the whole process and was convinced of Long Zhan's patience.
If it were him, he would rather turn into a human cannonball and hit the ground than teach Lucian step by step like a child.
Sonny was also glad that he had the foresight to immediately leave this task to Long Zhan.
After rehearsing 12 times, Dr. Lucian was finally familiar with the whole process and basically relaxed.
He apologized sincerely: "Long, thank you very much. I think I have no problem."
"OK, let's start the next step and get familiar with the equipment needed for skydiving."
Long Zhan brought Lucian to the left side, next to the combat preparation box with supplies.
He picked up a breathing mask with a thick tube and said: "This is a preliminary breathing mask. It is used before you skydive to ensure the internal pressure balance of your body."
This time we will jump to a height of nearly 30,000 feet, which is higher than Mount Everest.
If you don't prepare breathing and pressure regulation in advance, you may faint immediately after exiting the cabin, then start spinning without weight, and finally be rolled into a taco by the parachute rope, and then hit the ground hard with a snap."
At the end of the dragon war, he used a vivid metaphor, which made Dr. Lucian, who had just relaxed, shrink his neck in fear.
He grabbed a prepared breathing mask, opened the valve and started inhaling fiercely.
"Hahaha, doctor, you are too timid. As a man, you shouldn't be like this."
Long Zhan was amused by Lucian's cowardice, and comforted him in a coldly humorous way: "Actually, the probability is very small, lower than if you won $100 million in Powerball.
And even if this happens, you won't feel any pain at all, and you will die peacefully in a coma."
