Chapter 216: The Hair-raising Landing!
In the c*ckpit, the airport control tower could be seen in the distance!
Many fire engines and ambulances were on standby below!
It was obvious that everyone on the ground was paying attention to their plane!
In the plane, the old air stewardess looked out the window and began pursing her lips as she muttered, “Just the last step . Just one more step . Come on!”
The fat air stewardess had her eyes closed as she prayed and did not say a word .
The thin air stewardess and a few other passengers had their heads lowered as they wrote their wills . They were prepared for the worst!
The cabin crew youth who had been in fear all along no longer thought much . There was no meaning to it . The only person in the plane that could barely control the plane was Zhang Ye . He could only place all his hopes on Zhang Ye . He only wished that the Teacher Zhang who was shouting, “Step on the gas, switching to gear five” previously would not use a method like “Step on the brakes, pulling the handbrake” to land the plane . If not, they would really f**king die on this runway!
Compared to them, Zhang Ye was undergoing the greatest stress . He too was nervous . Don’t you see this fellow’s legs trembling? He had never encountered such a huge situation before . But now he was forced into this position with no turning back . He could only reduce the plane’s speed as he cheered on himself!
How to cheer?
How to gain courage?
Singing! He began singing the song from his world, “Let’s meet at the next juncture“!
Why did he sing this song? Nonsense! What else could muster courage better than Brother Chun’s song!?
And Zhang Ye hoped that even if he were to sacrifice himself, he would have the opportunity to be resurrected in place in the future!
After taking a breath, Zhang Ye tried the landing gear . Seeing the landing gear symbol appear on his display screen, he heaved a sigh of relief . Thankfully, this button was not broken . The landing gear could be deployed . The only thing left for him was to lower the speed and find the longest runway to land . The planes of this time all had a blind drop system . It just needed to synchronize with the system to work, but firstly Zhang Ye did not know this . Secondly, many of the apparatus were broken . There was no way of controlling it so he had to use his naked eye and intuition to recognize and judge . Thankfully, the automatic procedure these days were advanced . For example, an A320 could maintain a level angle automatically under normal circumstances . Even the rudder was done through sensors, and did not need to be controlled by the cockpit . As such, the difficulty was greatly reduced for Zhang Ye!

Let’s land!
F**k it, who cares!
After circling twice in the air, Zhang Ye went all out . He switched on the cabin transmission, “Dear passengers, this will be the last transmission in this flight . Those who have not taken off your shoes, glasses or any sharp objects, please do so as soon as possible . We will attempt landing in 30 seconds . Wish us luck!”
Cease transmission!
He had arrived above the airport!
Zhang Ye superstitiously prayed to the heavens and with his eyes focused and without distraction, he lowered the plane’s nose in a determined manner!
The plane’s angle clearly did not look good . In fact, it could be said to be eye-shocking!
……
On the ground .
Runway perimeter .
A portion of the ground control people remained in the tower while the rest all rushed out . Seeing the China Airlines plane overhead, they felt their hearts in their mouths . The leaders stared with rounded eyes as their bodies tensed up . All the firemen were on standby!
Below the control tower were about 20 beautiful air stewardesses .
“Everybody hold hands!”
“Right, let’s pray together!”
“They will definitely be alright, *sob*, definitely!”
“Jun, Sis Zhao, stay strong!”
The air stewardesses held hands and prayed for their sisters in the plane . Many of the airport staff covered their eyes and did not dare look!
It was descending!
The plane was coming down!
Could the plane land at such an angle?
A very experienced and retired pilot present screamed, “No good! This angle won’t work! The plane’s nose is too low! It will make contact with the ground!”
A few pilots also exclaimed, “The speed is too fast! It should be slowed down more! Otherwise, the buffer distance is not enough!”
“Ah!”
“What do we do?”
“We’re finished, we’re finished!”
“Jun and company are still on that plane!”
Seeing the plane about to crash, everyone screamed!
The passengers on the plane also saw the horror in the eyes of the ground crew . A few air stewardesses looked at each other with tears in their eyes . They understood that it was more ominous than propitious! It was not enough . They had worked hard so many times, why did they still have to die!? People were very sensitive the moment before they died . Many things flashed past their minds as they felt how the Heavens were unfair! They were unwilling to submit to fate! They did not want to die!

The fat air stewardess shouted!
The old air stewardess covered her face and did not dare look!
The little girl who called Zhang Ye “Brother Superman” was curled up and shivering in fear!
About 200m off the ground, Zhang Ye felt that the angle of approach was not right . He did not intend for it to be so, but as he was descending, the plane had received great airflow resistance, so the fuselage deviated from his expectations . Besides, Zhang Ye had no prior experience . The nose was too low, and if this carried on, he did not know if the nose or the landing gear would first come into contact with the ground . Crisis was imminent!
This was the end?
Zhang Ye was flustered . He knew that it wouldn’t work if this carried on . There was not enough time left!
180m!
150m!
Suddenly, Zhang Ye used all his strength to pull on the controls . Get it up for me! Up! Just a bit! Just a tiny bit would do!
A thud!
The plane had come into contact with the ground!
This sound almost scared the wits out of Zhang Ye . The entire plane began to rumble without control as if it was to explode any second . Zhang Ye was so afraid that he closed his eyes . He waited for a second before he opened his eyes again . He realized that the c*ckpit was fine . The nose was fine too . He had pulled back the plane to a proper balance during the most critical landing process! This could really be described as a miracle . Only a person like Zhang Ye who was fearless and a pure layman could create this miracle . Because if an experienced pilot were to encounter this situation, they would choose to increase the throttle and attempt landing again at a better angle . But that method did not work in this situation as they were too low . The plane could not be pulled back up, and would end up not being able to stop after accelerating!
However . Zhang Ye managed it!
It wasn’t because he was awesome, but because he was purely a layman and by not having fear from ignorance . As the saying goes, “Fools are bold”!
But the greatest danger had not been eliminated!
The plane was heading straight across the runway . Clearly, he did not control the descending speed well . It was too fast, and the point of landing was not chosen properly . It was only midway of the runway, and the path was a bit slanted . The plane had longed gone off the normal pathway and was sliding diagonally into an open space . Just ahead was a passenger plane parked there and a terminal! Zhang Ye immediately reduced his speed!
Stop!
Please stop!
The plane’s body began to shake causing Zhang Ye to feel dizzy from the tremor!
The passengers and flight crew were all screaming as they felt the moment of their death approaching!
This time both felt very short and very long . As if a century had passed when suddenly it became silent!
Zhang Ye, who had his eyes shut tightly, was the first to open his eyes . This was because he heard a system message:
[ Countdown Complete . 10x Game Difficulty Adjustment has ended! ]
……
In the cabin .
It was complete silence before a few voices erupted!
“We aren’t dead? Is this heaven?” The fat air stewardess rubbed her eyes!
“Look! Quickly, quickly look outside!” The thin air stewardess stuttered with excitement . She began screaming as if she was mad!
The fat air stewardess looked up as Dong Shanshan and the other passengers looked out the window . Heavens! It was the ground! The fire engines and ambulances were approaching them! It was the faces of pleasantly surprised rescue and airport personnel! And there were the familiar faces of their colleagues!
The plane had come to a stop!
They had landed in the airport!
“Oh my god!”
“We landed! We landed!”
“Someone pinch me! Am I dreaming?”
“We have came back to life! We are safe! Sob Sob Sob! We are safe!”
At this moment, whatever said was nonsense!
The cabin crew youth unfastened his seat belts with trembling hands . He nearly jumped out from his seat and threw up his hands into the air to yell for 10 seconds, “Ah Ah Ah Ah Ah!”
With his lead, the passengers quickly unfastened their seat belts . As they cried, they screamed!
The entire cabin was filled with screams and cheers! Everyone was dancing to express their joy! The entire plane was in a tumultuous uproar!

On the Road to Elspar (Book 1)
The year is 1329. The Huntress' War has entered its tenth year, inflaming competing nationalisms and pitting the Confederacy of Caldrein against one of the continent's superpowers, the Tenereian Union. Desperately outnumbered, the Confederacy has relied on the prowess of its famed Caldran mercenaries, with highly-trained and experienced warbands returning from foreign conflicts to the defense of their homeland, and it is on their backs that Caldrein has successfully mounted a valiant defense for a decade. But they are losing, and day by day, with all the grace of a sledgehammer, the vast Tenereian armies take one more bit of Caldran territory, one footstep at a time. Sixteen-year-old Neianne from the village of Caelon has submitted herself to Faulkren Academy, one of the centuries-old institutions established to train the next generation of Caldrein's elite soldiers of fortune, to learn the ways of wars for three years before embarking upon the defense of her country. Her dryad family once hailed from reclusive woodland communes isolated from Caldrein's complicated mainstream society, and her upbringing leaves the shy village girl unprepared to suddenly train alongside other apprentices from backgrounds as low as the dirty slums of Caldrein's cities and as high as the halls of aristocratic power. Yet the war is eroding the norms and traditions that the Caldran people have long considered part of their national mythos, and the tensions within the confederacy that have long simmered under the surface - race, class, community, identity - are slowly but surely dividing its people, and Neianne must grow and discover who she really is, even as the war that she is steadfastly training for comes to its inexorable end... On the Road to Elspar is a fantasy quest - a work of interactive fiction wherein readers get to vote on what happens next at critical junctures - that is the first entry in a story that follows Neianne of Caelon, which first began on July 20, 2016. Originally a three-part in medias res prologue to a larger story titled On the Elsparian Road, it was eventually decided that this section - which covers Neianne's three years at Faulkren Academy - become its own independent story due to length, structural, and accessibility reasons. Despite this being a reader interactive work of fiction, due to logistical and verification concerns, voting will only be counted on its thread on the forum Sufficient Velocity, where this story originally began. As such, the content here on Royal Road serves as a story-only archive. You are, of course, entirely welcome to enjoy On the Road to Elspar as a conventional work of fiction, just as you are welcome to comment, discuss, and provide critique. But if you would like to participate in the voting, then I would be honored to welcome you on Sufficient Velocity. To facilitate accessibility and to ensure the best reading experience, this story-only version of On the Road to Elspar will be updated at a periodic pace, even though further content exists, so as to not overwhelm new readers on Royal Road. If you enjoy this story, wish to binge it, and/or want to participate in voting immediately, you may of course read all additional content via the link provided above. This paragraph will be removed once the content on Royal Road catches up with what has already been posted in its original thread. Cover artwork by DreamSyndd.

Neophyte
Blurb:Layla lives in a multi-planar universe where gods and superhuman immortals roam. Immortality is possible but only to those with money, power, and connections. Layla isn't worried about that, though. She's just trying to pay the rent. Robinhood style, of course. Atom is the self-proclaimed Mantle of Procrastination and good times. He Ascended from Earth a thousand years ago. A millennial NEET shut-in at heart, he enjoys video games and holo tube while spending time with his female companion, who does all his deific duties for him. Join the crazy adventures of a lazy God and his unwilling follower's rise to power. The first few Arc's of the story is an Academy arc. I think you will know if you like the story by chapter 6 as the first chapter may be confusing (or sucks, idk I like it so whatever)._________ The story is a slow burn. If you are expecting quick progression, I suggest looking at some of the other great stories on RR. I personally enjoy and Patreon several, but that's not what I'm writing. That might hurt my chances of trending anytime soon (or ever lol), but that is fine with me. I'm sure some of you will appreciate the story as much as I do in writing it. FAQ: The story has elements of xianxia and wuxia along with some GameLit (at some point). The story takes place in an age where tech has advanced to a complete integration with magic. Imagine everything running on mana or qi instead of electricity, and you will get the idea. There will be crafting but not until later in the story. It's actually a core plot elemenet for Layla. I'm writing this story for my own enjoyment and as a way of relieving stress in my life. I'm not a pro author or a naturally gifted wordsmith. I don't have beta readers and every chapter posted is a first draft. I'm still learning and will strive to improve as I continue the story. If you don't speak up I can't work on improving as an author. I welcome any criticism and encouragement that would help me become a better writer. I can't believe you read this far down! ;) Enjoy the story. --Cover Credit-- Cover art (emblem) by: Oxana Che Cover Design by: Miblart

Rise of a Scarlet Devil (Regular+Draft Version)
A young girl slain during a war was brought back to life by some unknown force millennia later. She could only remember a vague face within her memories, uncertain as to who it was but there was one thing she did know. She needed to kill that person. But she was too weak, she needed to hide, to grow. She needed to flee from the battlefield her enemy reigns over. And to do so, she needed to run eastward, towards Helios, a safe haven for those who have lost their homes in the war. And where she would grow to become the strongest Hunter under her own strength. What was it that brought her back? Only time will tell. #Author's Note The novel is organized like this:Regular Chapters (Act, Title, Part (ranging from 1 to 9))Draft Chapter DisclaimerDraft Chapters (Entry Number, Perspective, Title, Part (ranging from i to ii)) Regular chapters are edited chapters that reflect the story aspect more while Draft chapters reflect plot progression more. An occasional interactive chapter will appear in the drafts but nowhere in the regular chapters. Expect changes when reading between Regular and Draft chapters as some events in the story may change in length or entirely removed/changed. Only read the draft version if you want a future view and/or opinion on the story and design elements. The main character is a human from a fantasy world reincarnated as a devil. The story possesses Reincarnators, Transmigrators, and Summoned Persons. though mainly focusing on Magic and other abilities such as Aura and Skills. Wizards (those who prepare arcane spells) and Mages (those who use elemental magic) are separate but seen as the same by common inhabitants of the world but clearly defined as different by more influential persons and by the circles themselves. The main character WILL not be a Mage or Wizard but will incorporate mana into her attacks to aid her as does any high-rank combatants. The system in the novel quantifies a person's abilities and keeps record of them but does not define natural ability, occasionally granting special abilities as skills to a person once prerequisites are met. There is no leveling system and no occupational systems in the novel featuring only a stat based and skill based system. Also, this novel is my first and will most likely be trash.
