Divine Lucky Star-Chapter 173: The Tornado is Back!
Chapter 173 -173: The Tornado is Back!
The colossal tornado was wreaking havoc on the ground, all swept away under the ferocious winds. However, as it passed a small hill, the wind speed dropped significantly, possibly due to the terrain. In that brief lull, the helicopter carrying Wang Hao and others was flung out!
The helicopter was thrown with astonishing velocity, spinning in the air like a cannonball, crashing headlong into a valley ahead!
Everyone inside the helicopter screamed in panic, “Ahhhhhh!”
Wang Hao, with his keen eyes, spotted immediately that the direction the helicopter was flying was precisely towards the valley he had seen earlier, and right below was the lake!
“Damn, there’s a chance, guys! Quick, unbuckle your seat belts and get ready to jump!” Opportunities are fleeting, and there could be no hesitation. Wang Hao was the first to unbuckle Bai Yaning’s seat belt, and everyone quickly followed suit—no one was foolish enough to miss the chance to jump into the lake below. Waiting strapped in would be idiotic!
Soon, everyone had their seat belts off. Just then, the helicopter was right above the lake surface, mere meters away. Wang Hao shouted loudly, “Jump, jump now!” He, with a large backpack and holding Bai Yaning, was the first to leap.
With a “splash” they hit the water. Hahaha!
They survived!
Following Wang Hao’s lead, everyone else jumped like dumping dumplings, splashing repetitively into the water. Fang Wenbin didn’t hesitate either – screw helicopters, saving their lives was crucial. Jump!
“Splash!” “Splash!” “Splash!”
Everyone jumped down, and then Wang Hao watched the fifty million dollar helicopter spin and crash into the cliff with a thunderous explosion, turning into a massive fireball. The entire lake surface even trembled from the impact.
In the water, Fang Wenbin covered his face and screamed, “My fifty million! My Romanee Conti!”
Fifty million gone, just like that. Oh, what a pity, that money could have been so useful…
Surviving the calamity! Being alive is indeed a fortune! Who cares about the cost of the helicopter at such a time? Zhao Zhenhao even grinned at Wang Hao, whispering, “Brother Hao is awesome. I was wondering how to take this guy down, but now look, the helicopter is gone, haha, thrilling!”
Damn it, are you saying this helicopter wreck is all my fault? I can’t take this blame!
But thinking about it… it actually is.
Now, Wang Hao understood even more the power of this luck dice—whenever it rolled either extreme bad luck or extreme good luck, it indeed created dramatic scenes. The scene just now could rival a Hollywood disaster movie without any special effects!
“It’s good to be alive,” Wang Hao sighed deeply. “At least we didn’t die, right? I mean, although we lost the helicopter, we did save everyone, right? Shouldn’t they be thanking me?”
From one side, Fang Wenbin shouted, “Brother Hao, thank you! If it weren’t for you, we probably would’ve been goners!”
See!
As they spoke, another thunderous “crack” roared through the sky. A bucket-thick bolt of lightning struck a large tree on the shore, which fell over with a crack and began to burn.
God, the disaster clearly wasn’t over yet!
Everyone looked up—the sky was covered with dense, spinning clouds, as if ready to devour the whole world. Close by, the terrifying storm was rolling towards them!
Damn, this isn’t over yet!
Right now, they were in the lake, unable to run fast, and there was clearly nowhere suitable to hide. When that storm hit, death was imminent!
“Brother Hao, think of something quick!” Zhao Zhenhao shouted. “If you don’t figure something out before the storm is here, we’re all going to die!”
Damn, what can I do at a time like this? This is a natural disaster!
As Wang Hao was trying to think, suddenly there was another “boom”—a second explosion from the helicopter, distinct from the first. It wasn’t just the sound of the helicopter exploding; the mountain was collapsing too.
“Rumble…” Huge boulders tumbled from the cliff, revealing a huge cave!
Today really is my lucky day! Heaven doesn’t seal all the exits!
“There’s a cave! Everyone, quick, to the cave!” Wang Hao yelled, immediately swimming towards the cave with Bai Yaning in tow.
Fortunately, all the young gentlemen and ladies from wealthy families knew how to swim, and Wang Hao, who had grown up in the countryside by the river, swam effortlessly. He even managed to pull Bai Yaning along with one hand while carrying his large bag with the other…
Everyone hurried along at different paces, finally rushing into the cave.
Just as everyone had caught their breath upon entering the cave, the tornado they had been outrunning finally arrived!
“Whoosh—Whoosh—!!!”
People inside the cave exclaimed, “What a powerful wind!”
By then, the wind outside had started to rage, its howling sound terrifying, especially from within the cave!
A gigantic tornado!
With a diameter of at least fifty meters, it was even larger than the one during the previous air disaster!
Interestingly, the geographical location of this valley was truly magical. Although it was summer, the air outside remained hot and dry while the valley floor was quite cool. The interplay between hot and cold air easily generated winds. The main reason was that once the previous tornado entered the valley, it couldn’t escape the cliffs surrounding the area and simply spun in place!

The more the air spun, the bigger and stronger the tornado became, including the small lake at the bottom of the valley…
Wang Hao saw a massive tornado that one would usually only see on TV furiously swirling within the valley. The lake water was being sucked up, and not just water, but several large trees as well—including one that had been split and set ablaze by lightning—rotating and burning all at once!
With a “plop,” a fish was flung to the mouth of the cave, flopping around on the ground…
“This is freaking insane, damn it!”
Everyone was stunned, and just as the tornado continued for a good half an hour without any sign of stopping, it grew bigger and fiercer, and rain started pouring from the sky!
“Oh God, what is happening?!” Wang Hao exclaimed as he stared at the dark sky, “Are you kidding? Is this for real?!”
As if in response to his words, another loud “boom-crack” resounded, and a massive bolt of lightning struck down!
The entire valley was illuminated by the electric light as bright as day!
Everyone huddled behind Wang Hao, with Bai Yaning clinging tightly to his arm, whispering, “Wang Hao, I’m scared…” The usually aloof girl finally revealed her vulnerable side in the face of nature’s formidable power.
“Don’t be afraid, I’m here,” Wang Hao gestured with his hand, “Everyone, move further inside, be careful not to get swept up by the tornado!”
This was no joking matter; no one dared not listen, and they all ran deep inside the cave.
At this time, the dark clouds in the sky also gathered more densely, covering the last glimmer of the sunset completely, and suddenly another lightning bolt flashed, illuminating the surrounding scenery in intricate detail.
“Boom-crack—!!!”
Another lightning bolt struck a giant tree in the valley that was thick enough for three people to embrace. The tree was instantly split in half by the force of the lightning and burst into flames!
“Holy shit…” Witnessing everything, Wang Hao instinctively wrapped his arm around Bai Yaning’s waist and retreated further into the cave, “This lightning is terrifying!”
And where exactly was his hand touching…
Bai Yaning blushed, but knowing this wasn’t the time to dwell on such details, she let him hold her as they moved further into the cave.
“Boom-crack! Boom-crack!” Thunderclaps resounded one after another, booming in everyone’s ears, making it hard for them to keep their balance. Fang Wenbin and others were terrified, their last bits of bravado vanishing without a trace, huddling together.
They had never seen, nor even imagined, such a scene before!
Fang Wenbin cursed loudly, “Damn meteorological station said there wouldn’t be any rain! Trusting them is like expecting to win the lottery!”
“You heard the weather forecast for Zhonghai City!” Wang Hao said frustratedly, “We are over two hundred kilometers away from Zhonghai, you bumpkin!”
Fang Wenbin had probably never been called a bumpkin to his face before, but hearing Wang Hao swear at him surprisingly calmed him down—Brother Hao was almost like a deity!
“Brother Hao, what should we do next?” Zhao Zhenhao asked loudly, “The tornado is coming!”
