Ye Ling took a deep breath, sat back in the repaired driver's seat, and gently stroked the slightly rough joystick with her fingertips.
Outside the window of the spaceship, the abandoned planet showed its hideous side: the dark red sky, like solidified blood, was so oppressive that it made people breathless; on the ground, the strange rocks looked like the skeletons of some giant beast, telling of the ancient horror.
This scene made her feel an indescribable uneasiness in her heart, as if she was in the belly of a giant beast and could be swallowed at any time.
"Fasten your seat belts, guys, this ride might be a bit bumpy." Ye Ling joked in a nonchalant manner, trying to ease the tense atmosphere.
But the hand gripping the joystick revealed her true feelings.
The spacecraft's engine made a low roar and slowly rose into the air.
The gravity of the abandoned planet is much greater than that of an ordinary planet. The spacecraft's ascent speed is extremely slow, as difficult as an old ox pulling a broken cart.
Ye Ling concentrated on controlling the spacecraft, trying hard to maintain balance and not daring to relax at all.
However, not long after the spacecraft took off, an unexpected accident occurred.
"Warning! Warning! A strong radiation storm has been detected!" The spacecraft's alarm system screamed shrilly, the red warning lights flashed wildly, and the entire cockpit was instantly illuminated in blood red.
"Oh my god! What a terrible place! My ex's temper is even worse than mine!" Ye Ling couldn't help but complain.
Outside the window, the originally dark red sky suddenly became even more eerie, like boiling blood, rolling and roaring.
The radiation energy visible to the naked eye, like dancing poisonous snakes, slammed into the spacecraft's energy shield, causing ripples.
The spacecraft shook violently, as if it would be torn into pieces at any time.
Ye Ling held the joystick tightly, trying to control the balance of the spacecraft, beads of sweat the size of beans rolled down his forehead.
Seeing this, Tryndamere immediately activated his mecha's ability, and a light blue energy shield enveloped the spacecraft to resist the invasion of radiation.
"Tryndamere, thank you!" Ye Ling looked at Tryndamere gratefully.
Kasa stared at the various instruments nervously, her face pale, and her hands tightly grasped the armrests of the seat, fearing that she would be thrown out.
"Teacher Ye Ling, how long can we hold on?" Kassa's voice trembled slightly.
Ye Ling gritted her teeth and looked forward with a determined gaze, "Hold on until I find the route!"
Ye Ling stared at the flickering light on the navigation screen, her brain working rapidly.
The radiation storm on this damn planet is more troublesome than she imagined, like a dog-skin plaster that can't be shaken off.
Fortunately, she had an excellent memory, and with Kassa's knowledge of this ghost place, she finally found a relatively safe route.
"Turn left ten degrees, then pull up thirty degrees!" Ye Ling gave the order decisively, with a hint of excitement in his tone.
Under her control, the spacecraft deftly avoided a surging radiation cloud in front of it, just like drifting, which was thrilling and exciting.
"Beautiful!" Kassa couldn't help cheering, and her nervousness was relieved a lot.
Tryndamere also nodded secretly, expressing his approval of Ye Ling's driving skills.
Ye Ling raised her eyebrows proudly, "Basic exercises, no 6."
The atmosphere inside the spacecraft became much more relaxed, and the alarms gradually subsided.
However, the good times did not last long.
Ye Ling's gaze fell on the fuel display screen, and her expression instantly became solemn.
"What's going on? Why is the fuel consumed so quickly?" She frowned, with a hint of disbelief in her tone.
Kasa leaned over to take a look and gasped, "This... This is too fast! At this rate, we won't be able to make it back!"
The atmosphere inside the spacecraft became oppressive again, as if a huge rock was pressing on everyone's heart.
"Damn it!" Ye Ling slammed the joystick hard, feeling filled with regret.
Are they going to be trapped in this damn place?
Ye Ling's brain was working rapidly, various plans flashed through her mind, but were rejected one by one.
"No, I have to think of a way..." Ye Ling muttered to herself,
Suddenly, she thought of something and raised her head sharply, "Wait! Maybe..."
"Maybe we can use the planet's gravity to create a slingshot effect!" Ye Ling slapped her thigh and shouted excitedly, "Adjust the flight trajectory and speed, and use the planet's gravity to accelerate. This way we can save a lot of fuel!"
Tryndamere's eyes lit up. "That's a good idea! But it's very difficult to operate. If you're not careful, you'll be captured by gravity and crash onto the planet."
Kasa also echoed worriedly: "Yes, Teacher Ye Ling, this is too dangerous!"
Ye Ling smiled confidently, "What are you afraid of! Fortune and wealth are achieved through risk. How do you know if you can't succeed if you don't give it a try? Trust me, an experienced driver is very steady!"
She quickly adjusted the flight parameters of the spacecraft, her hands dancing on the console as if she was playing a passionate piece of music.
The spacecraft began to tilt, approaching the planet's gravitational pull.
As the spacecraft got closer to the planet, the gravitational pull grew stronger and stronger, and the spacecraft began to vibrate violently.
Kasa clutched the armrest of the seat tightly, her face pale, and she felt like her heart was about to jump out.
Tryndamere activated the mecha's stabilization system, trying to keep the spacecraft balanced.
Ye Ling stared at the data on the screen intently and calmly adjusted the attitude of the spacecraft.
She felt like she was walking on a tightrope and would be crushed to pieces if she wasn't careful.
"Hold on, you'll almost succeed!" Ye Ling gritted her teeth, beads of sweat oozing from her forehead.
Under the influence of the planet's gravity, the spacecraft's speed became faster and faster, rushing into the distance like a cannonball.
"Wuhu! Take off!" Ye Ling shouted excitedly, and her tense nerves finally relaxed.
The numbers on the fuel display also stabilized and no longer dropped rapidly.
Kai'Sa and Tryndamere also breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.
Just when they thought everything was going well, Ye Ling suddenly discovered a dense belt of meteorites in front of them.
"Oh my god! What's going on? Are you kidding me?!" Ye Ling couldn't help but swear.
"This asteroid belt is very dangerous, we must go around it!" Kassa said anxiously.
"It's too late!" Tryndamere pointed at the radar screen. "The surrounding radiation storm is approaching. We must get through the meteor belt as soon as possible!"
Ye Ling took a deep breath, her eyes determined, "Then charge ahead! I'm not afraid of a hammer!"
She gripped the joystick tightly, ready to face new challenges.
Kaisa and Tryndamere were also ready for battle and stood firmly beside Ye Ling.
"I hope the Duan Yu family doesn't know that I'm so extravagant..." Ye Ling murmured in a low voice.
“Here I come!”
