Hewitt stood still.
It was not because he was too slow to move, but because Gallanty was too fast.
During a thunderstorm, a strong electric field forms within the rain clouds, and an ionized gas column appears at the bottom of the cloud. This gas column approaches the ground at a speed of about 150,000 meters per second. When it is just tens of meters above the ground, countless electrical elements, also known as charged materials, leave the earth and climb upward along the ionized gas molecules.
Electric current fires back into the sky from the ground along the established pathway, forming a massive light column with countless branches.
At this time, the moving speed of the electric arc hovers between ten to the power of five and ten to the power of eight, peaking at approximately one-third the speed of light.
Gallanty was just slightly slower than the limit speed of lightning.
