How can a single step decide the flow of everything?
The moment the duo decided their next course of action, they moved forward to face the towering silhouettes lurking in the distance.
Then, at that decisive movement, like a runner preparing for a long metre sprint, Adrian lowered his centre of gravity by crouching low, inhaled deeply, and with a sound reminiscent of a church bell, lunged forward!
'Shit! He's fast!'
Klaus thought so in dumbfounded silence as he followed suit, keeping to the shadows of the black labyrinth while trying to keep up. However, the distance between them only kept increasing.
This wasn't just Adrian's running speed. He was manipulating the wind vectors around his body to improve his acceleration, reducing drag and allowing him to slip through the air unnaturally. Of course, several factors such as air friction and inertia were still at play, but Adrian had mastered the delicate balance between resistance and propulsion.
