Chapter 320 Flying Palace?
As Overlord emerged from the unfathomable depths of the ocean, its sheer magnitude and awe-inspiring presence demanded immediate attention. The azure waters shimmered with life, teeming with a great assembly of majestic creatures—the awe-inspiring great white sharks. Towering above the underwater realm, these magnificent beings boasted impressive lengths of 5 to 6 meters, their powerful bodies and sleek forms a testament to their dominance in these waters. Grouped together in substantial numbers, ranging from 20 to 30 individuals, they were inexorably drawn by the unmistakable scent of blood wafting through the currents, an irresistible call to satiate their primordial instincts.
Ba Wang, the formidable protagonist, was in search of sustenance. Having recently consumed a few fish, he remained unsatiated, leaving him eager for more. The presence of these great white sharks presented a golden opportunity—a feast delivered right to his doorstep. A wicked grin adorned Overlord\'s face as he approached the approaching horde of sharks, their proximity gradually closing the gap between them.
Finally, the great white sharks caught sight of the colossal Overlord, and in an instant, they scattered in a frenzied panic, fleeing in all directions. Witnessing their fear-induced dispersal, a sneer curled upon Overlord\'s lips, displaying his disdain. "You claim to be at the pinnacle of the food chain, yet look at you now," he scoffed.
The great white sharks swiftly fled, their hasty escape accompanied by thoughts of self-preservation. They inwardly pleaded with Overlord not to pursue them, as their flesh held no delectable allure. Far from embodying the regal demeanour expected of top predators, these sharks displayed their ability to flee as fast as possible.
Bawang, with his incredible speed, outpaced them effortlessly, swiftly overtaking one of the sharks—a colossal specimen measuring six to seven meters in length, the largest of the group. Giving chase, Overlord lunged forward, sinking his formidable jaws into the hapless shark, promptly subduing it.
Bawang\'s ferocious nature was laid bare for all to see. He crushed the massive great white shark with just a few bites, causing the surrounding seawater to turn a faint shade of red. Having consumed a few more bites, he devoured the shark entirely, feeling content with the satisfying meal.
The pursuit continued as Overlord set his sights on another great white shark, swiftly closing the distance and seizing it in a blink of an eye. He unleashed his sprinting prowess with unmatched agility, clamping his powerful jaws around the shark\'s body. Of the original 20 to 30 great white sharks, more than half now found themselves consigned to the belly of the mighty Overlord.
Having feasted upon over a dozen great white sharks, Bawang began to feel a sense of satiation. His enormous appetite allowed him to consume more than 200 tons of food in a single sitting. As far as his eyes could see, the Atlantic Ocean held no remnants of great white sharks or even slightly larger fish—they had all escaped.
Bawang pressed on, continuing his journey into the depths of the sea. As a true foodie, he prioritized the pursuit of exquisite delicacies. What wonders awaited him in the depths of the Atlantic Ocean?
Meanwhile, in Huahai City, August had arrived, marking the end of summer vacation. Liu Yong and Li Changle strolled through the bustling streets, engaging in leisurely shopping.
Liu Yong, brimming with excitement, spoke up. "Lele, the Rio Olympics are just around the corner. How about joining me to witness the grand event?"
Li Changle readily agreed, her eyes gleaming with anticipation. "Absolutely! I\'ve heard that Chen Hu is participating in multiple events. I\'d love to see him in action."
Liu Yong couldn\'t help but feel elated. This trip to Rio de Janeiro was primarily motivated by the desire to witness Chen Hu\'s remarkable performances. The talented athlete had a packed scheduleat the Olympics, competing in an impressive array of events. Chen Hu\'s participation included the men\'s 100 meters, 200 meters, 400 meters, and 1500 meters races, as well as the men\'s long jump, javelin throw, shot put, and triathlon—eight events in total.
With the Rio Olympics just days away, the national sports delegation had already set off, leaving Liu Yong eager to secure tickets for the opening ceremony and all eight events in which Chen Hu would compete. Taking charge of the arrangements, Liu Yong ensured they had access to all the thrilling action.
Li Changle, intrigued by Chen Hu\'s prowess, couldn\'t contain her curiosity. "Brother Yong, with so many events on his plate, how many gold medals do you think Chen Hu will win?"
Liu Yong, exuding confidence, replied without hesitation, "Barring any unforeseen circumstances, I believe he\'ll claim all eight gold medals."
Li Changle gasped in astonishment. "Eight gold medals! If he manages to achieve that, he\'ll undoubtedly set a new world record in track and field events."
Liu Yong nodded, his eyes shining with pride. "Indeed, my primary aim is to witness his extraordinary performances."
Two days later, Liu Yong and Li Changle embarked on their journey to Rio de Janeiro. They made their way to the airport, accompanied by a convoy of three cars. Leading the way was an imposing off-road vehicle manned by four vigilant bodyguards. The final car in the procession, also an off-road vehicle, housed an additional quartet of security personnel.
Inside the vehicle, Li Changle couldn\'t contain her curiosity. "Brother Yong, are we really traveling by private plane?"
Liu Yong grinned, confirming her suspicions. "Of course! Our private jet has just arrived, and this will be its inaugural flight."
Months prior, Liu Yong had commissioned the Global Shipping Group to procure a private jet for his personal use. Qiu** Gymnastics oversaw the matter, securing a Boeing 777 airliner tailored to his specifications. This customized aircraft stood apart from its commercial counterparts, exuding an air of luxury befitting a flying palace. Though Liu Yong had seen design renderings, this would be his first opportunity to explore the plane in detail.
With seamless grace, the trio of vehicles glided into the premises of Huahai International Airport, granted exclusive passage through a dedicated entrance that guided them unimpeded to the wide apron. The ownership of a private jet bestowed upon them many advantages, liberating them from the laborious routines of conventional air travel, with its tiresome security checks and banal airport procedures becoming mere distant memories.
Before alighting from the car, Li Changle caught sight of the parked plane on the tarmac, and her eyes widened with admiration. "Wow, it\'s stunning!"
Indeed, the plane radiated an aura of elegance and grandeur. Adorned primarily in blue and white, its livery was visually striking. Adding to its allure, the fuselage prominently displayed the logo of the Global Shipping Group.
Liu Yong stepped out of the car, glancing at the aircraft and the crew members eagerly awaiting their arrival near the gangway. Satisfied with what he saw, he nodded approvingly. "Let\'s proceed and board the plane."
With a gentle grasp of Li Changle\'s hand, Liu Yong assumed the role of a guide, charting their course through the bustling surroundings. A loyal entourage trailed closely behind him, comprised of two men and two women, all meticulously chosen members of the esteemed Security Department within the esteemed Global Shipping Group. While Liu Yong\'s own capabilities commanded respect and admiration, he understood the immeasurable value these dedicated protectors offered, extending far beyond their primary duty of safeguarding his well-being. They were pillars of support, ever attentive to his every requirement, ensuring a harmonious and effortless journey.
The Boeing 777, meticulously prepared for its owner\'s arrival, had its crew lined up on both sides of the gangway, awaiting their esteemed guests.
"Hi, boss!" they greeted respectfully.
"Boss, welcome aboard," they chimed in unison.
Liu Yong acknowledged their salutations with a slight nod, his satisfaction evident. With Li Changle by his side, he ascended the gangway step by step, entering the luxurious interior of the plane.
In close proximity to the aircraft, a bustling waiting hall teemed with passengers eagerly observing the spectacle unfolding before their eyes through the transparent glass panels. The air was filled with an undercurrent of anticipation as their collective gazes remained transfixed on the captivating scene. Three impeccably maneuvered cars made their way with remarkable ease towards the magnificent Boeing 777, effortlessly commanding attention. Positioned at the centre of this procession stood the opulent Rolls-Royce Phantom, its mere presence igniting a spark of curiosity among the onlookers.
"Look at that! They\'re heading straight to the plane\'s gate, bypassing security checks and waiting like the rest of us."
"That\'s a Rolls-Royce Phantom! Whoever travels in such a car accompanied by bodyguards must be someone extraordinary."
"It must be a private jet!"
As many individuals turned their gaze towards the captivating scene unfolding before them, speculation swiftly permeated the air, spreading like a voracious wildfire. All eyes were fixed on Liu Yong and Li Changle as they gracefully disembarked from their vehicle, making their ascent up the gangway with an air of elegance. At this moment, a prevailing notion took hold among the spectators—a clue that they were witnessing the arrival of a private jet. However, the sheer magnitude of the aircraft standing before them shattered their preconceived notions, for private jets were traditionally associated with smaller, more compact models like the Gulfstream series. The grandeur exuded by this Boeing 777 defied their understanding of what truly constituted a private jet, leaving them in awe of its sheer size and luxury.
The atmosphere was electrified with curiosity and hushed whispers as their hands interlocked; Liu Yong and Li Changle stepped forward to commence their thrilling expedition to Rio. Together, they embarked on a captivating journey that promised unforgettable experiences and boundless excitement. Their mode of transportation, a private jet that epitomized luxury and exclusivity, symbolised their elevated status and provided an unparalleled level of comfort. This extraordinary vessel became the conduit through which they would defy conventional travel norms, transcending the mundane and embracing a realm of splendor and indulgence. As they boarded the jet, a tangible air of anticipation and wonder enveloped them, for they knew that this remarkable voyage would be etched in their memories forever, a testament to their audacity to dream and the unwavering spirit of adventure that propelled them forward.
