This brake is equivalent to an anchor, and its main function is to fix the alien spacecraft to the floor of the base.

Even if the brakes are opened, the spacecraft cannot move without starting the power system.

Chen Zhao is a dabbler in the study of spacecraft propulsion systems. He has never been able to figure out the principle that produces the acceleration at the moment the spacecraft starts, because that acceleration is twenty to thirty times greater than that of existing engines on Earth.

So Chen Zhao released the brakes just to see the flight trajectory of the spacecraft at the moment it took off.

After two days of research, Chen Zhao has figured out the preliminary operating procedures of the spacecraft. Now that the brakes are released, and since the base is in a mess and no one is paying attention to him, he climbed into the cockpit and started the spacecraft according to the model he had researched.

Hard work pays off. After Chen Zhao made some adjustments, the indicator lights inside the spacecraft suddenly started flashing.

Chen Zhao was overjoyed and prepared to let the alien spacecraft circle at a low altitude and then return to its original position. In this way, even if the base discovered it, it would at most give him a warning. People doing scientific research are bound to be curious.

The spacecraft's hatch closed and started up smoothly a few seconds later.

The takeoff of this spacecraft is completely different from the existing aircraft and spacecraft on Earth.

Existing aircraft must use a runway to take off. Spacecraft, on the other hand, are accelerated directly into space by thrusters. Once they escape gravity and burst through the atmosphere, the thrusters that carry the aircraft will fall off one by one.

This spacecraft from the planet Mercury took off without any warning after its engine was started.

Chen Zhao was overjoyed. In a short period of time, he immediately gained some understanding of Shuibo Star's aerospace technology.

Just as Chen Zhao was controlling the spacecraft to descend, he was horrified to find that the spacecraft had lost control!

After receiving Chen Zhao's order to slow down and descend, the spacecraft not only did not slow down, but accelerated and flew directly towards the northwest horizon. It was so fast, like a meteor. People on the ground could not see clearly what it was with the naked eye before it disappeared.

If the spacecraft takes off above a certain altitude, the base's radar will be able to detect it. However, the takeoff of this spacecraft did not have aviation approval, which was an illegal takeoff. Immediately, an alarm sounded in the base.

After a period of chaos at the scene, people were surprised to find that the alarm at the base had just sounded because Chen Zhao, the researcher in charge of studying the Shuiboxing spacecraft, was driving the precious research spacecraft!

This infuriated the base's leader. With a war imminent, Chen Zhao stole a spaceship. Could he be a spy sent by the enemy? He could even be a well-hidden Water Wave Lizardman.

Since the base can undertake such an important research task, it naturally has strong enough security capabilities.

Chen Zhao was suspected of defecting, and the base immediately activated the highest early warning system. On the one hand, it began to investigate the background of the traitor Chen Zhao, and on the other hand, it launched the air early warning and interception system, hoping to find and bring back the Shuibo Star spacecraft as soon as possible.

After the Shuiboxing spacecraft lost control, it quickly took off. Chen Zhao was so panicked that he wanted to use all his strength to smash the control panel. Unfortunately, the control panel was fluorescent and he didn't know what material it was made of. It was very hard.

Nowadays, even fighter pilots have to wear oxygen masks. This is because the planes fly very fast, and the air becomes thin and oxygen-deficient after reaching high altitudes, which is very harmful to the human body, not to mention the pilots of spaceships that fly even faster than fighter jets.

Chen Zhao was so flustered that he didn't even bother to take out his oxygen mask and put it on, so he quickly became exhausted and fainted on the dashboard.
