Chapter: 2647
“How can we save people?”
When Chen Zekai asked this, Charlie Wade smiled sadly and admitted, “Honestly, I don’t know how to rescue people.”
Chen Zekai looked worried and asked, “How sure are you about this mission?”
Charlie replied thoughtfully, “I haven’t been to Syria, so I don’t know the strength and defenses of the Syrian opposition. From what you described, their forces seem quite strong. Even with my skills, I can’t take on thousands of armed soldiers. My only option is to sneak in.”
He sighed and added, “If I’m lucky, I might get in unnoticed. But if I’m not, I might not even make it inside.”
Chen Zekai was anxious. “Master, going in alone is dangerous! What if they spot you?”
Charlie waved his hand dismissively. “I have the skills to protect myself, but I can’t guarantee that I’ll be able to rescue anyone.”
Chen Zekai asked again, “You mentioned wanting to skydive from a plane. Do you have any experience with skydiving?”
Charlie shook his head. “No, I’ve been too busy surviving all these years to try skydiving.”
Chen Zekai’s worry deepened. “Master, if you can’t jump properly, it could be even more dangerous! The information I have says that the opposition has Stinger missiles, which can hit targets at about four kilometers up. So the plane will…”
altitude for landing sounds tricky. What should I do to make sure I land safely?”
Chen Zekai replied, “The key is to land on your feet. You need to bend your knees slightly as you touch down to absorb the impact. Practicing this technique is very important.”
Charlie nodded, taking in the advice. “So, it’s all about controlling my body and timing, right?”
“Exactly!” Chen Zekai said with a smile. “Skydiving is as much about mental preparation as it is about physical skills. You’ll need to stay calm and focused throughout the jump.”
Charlie felt excited but also nervous. “I appreciate the tips, Chen. I’m ready to give it a try!”
Chen Zekai encouraged him, “That’s the spirit! Just remember to practice and stay safe. You’ll do great!”
“I jumped from a ten-meter-high helicopter, and nothing happened. So, I don’t think this will be a problem for me,” Charlie Wade said confidently.
Chen Zekai then remembered how Su Zhiyu and Du Haiqing had performed during their last skydiving experience. He felt a little relieved, knowing that Charlie’s physical fitness was much better than average.
Taking a deep breath, Chen Zekai continued, “Master, given that, I believe you just need to focus on two things: controlling your direction and timing when to open your parachute. I’ll get in touch with the team in Lebanon and ask them to set up a device that shows air pressure, altitude, and GPS location. This way, you’ll be able to decide the right moment for your jump using real-time data, and adjust your direction based on the GPS.”
