However,
there was no time left for Lin Xian to think—
Whoosh!
A red laser as thick as the embrace of a large tree suddenly appeared in the night sky, accurately striking Ah Zhuang, who was flying ahead!
In the blink of an eye... Ah Zhuang, with his bulky frame, complex equipment, and spacesuit, vanished from sight.
Only several clumps of charred carbon remained, emitting a glowing red light that hadn't solidified...
Crackle crackle crackle crackle!
Those tiny carbon particles, like hailstones falling in reverse, pelted Lin Xian's spacesuit, crackling as they hit.
Lin Xian knew.
These were the residues left after Ah Zhuang was instantly vaporized by the super-high temperature laser.
And the fact that these residues were raining down on him like raindrops
meant that...
he had reached the same altitude as Ah Zhuang!
Whoosh!
