Standing in front of a console, Zero frowned.
The reason he chose to stand here was because there were more than ten operating platforms here. Only the top of the operating console had a screen of light. Two concentric rings were constantly moving on the light screen, and at the same time, groups of symbols appeared below the light screen. These symbols were somewhat similar to the Roman symbols, so that zero judged them to be numbers.
And the way the numbers are displayed, in two groups side by side, in addition to the concentric rings of interlaced motion, there is no reason to believe that it represents information about certain coordinates. An operating platform with coordinates would appear. In other words, this should be the flying platform of the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p.
In general, the supply of energy, whether aircraft or other means of transportation, meets the requirements of the driving system first. If the transport could not move, then it would be of no use first. It seems that this unknown civilization did not go beyond this range, placing the required energy to drive in the first sequence. However, the platform in front of him had no other controls, not even the most common crystals. He really didn"t know how to move the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p.
But one thing was certain, since the operating platform was here, then the controller must be somewhere else. It was just that Zero could not understand the civilization this s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p represented, so he could not find a way to deal with it.
He tried to reach his hand out onto the metal platform. Immediately, several rectangular light frames appeared under his palm. As soon as he removed his hand, the light disappeared. Touch keys were not uncommon in this era. For example, in Phoenix City"s information center, intelligent computers used the touch b.u.t.ton on the light screen to operate. It seemed like the operation of the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p was inextricably linked to the touch of the keys. However, Zero did not know what commands these keys represented, and did not dare to randomly press them.
He used his free hand to caress the platform, and as he moved his palm, long rays of light appeared one by one. Zero"s eyes memorized the distribution of the light lattice. When he retracted his hand from the platform, he already had a complete light lattice distribution map in his mind.
This should be a recessive keypad of light arranged in a square, vertical seven, a total of 49 keybits. And on both sides of these keys, there were also columns of light with symbols on them. There were only two columns, and each column also had seven columns. There were a total of 56 keybits that formed the operating system of the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p.
For such an advanced aircraft, Zero believed that with just a simple command, it would be able to allow the s.h.i.+p to fly automatically. Unfortunately, even if he did, he would not know how to combine the b.u.t.tons to form the command to start the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p.
But in Zero"s memory, the third square of the symbol with the palm appeared in the third circle of the symbol that was placed on the right side of the circle of light.
Since there was automatic flying, there was naturally manual flying as well. Suddenly excited, Zero believed that it was the command b.u.t.ton for manual flight.
He reached out his hand. Zero was on the light b.u.t.ton in his memory. With a flash of the symbol in the palm, the neatly arranged keys suddenly appeared on the platform. After that, they scattered and then randomly scurried around, looking extremely nervous.
As if it had been set up early in the morning, all the squares slid to the edge of the platform and disappeared. When there was not even half a square left on the platform, a groove opened up on the left and right side of the platform. In each of the grooves, a fist-sized blue crystal floated up.
The crystal floated up to a certain height before stopping. Then, a blue light shot out from the crystal. The blue light was like a nebula enveloping the two crystals, followed by countless strange symbols flas.h.i.+ng in the blue light.
At the same time as the two crystals were raised, the engravings on the exterior of the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p also began to glow with a soft blue light. The blue light spread through the engravings on the s.h.i.+p, and the six metal wings began to vibrate. The central axis of each wing began to glow with blue light, and the s.h.i.+p"s reserve of energy began to flow into their drive system. One of the wings suddenly flattened out, and the metal sheets that had been scattered across the ground began to glow blue.
Suddenly, a blue light shrouded the cave. The s.h.i.+p seemed to have descended into the starry sky of the universe, revealing a dream-like beauty.
In the control room, Zero reached his hands into the two b.a.l.l.s of hazy blue light. When he came into contact with the crystal stone in the blue light, a screen appeared on each of the three walls in front of the operating platform.
Three screens, one big and two small. Using a technique unknown to zero, he faithfully transmitted the objects outside the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p to the screens. Zero saw the cave he came from and smiled. The appearance of the window indicated that the driving system of the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p had finally started. However, Zero did not know how long the energy storage would last, so it was best to leave the underground s.p.a.ce as soon as possible.
However, although these two crystals could be confirmed to be the s.h.i.+p"s manual control system, Zero did not know the actual operation method. As things stood, it could only try its luck.
When he put his hand on the two crystals, Zero could feel that the two crystals were not stationary. They were all moving slightly, but in different directions. The crystal on the right was moving horizontally, while the crystal on the left was moving vertically. Looking at the screen on the operating platform, it seemed like it had gained some insight. Wasn"t it the two data slots that made up the coordinates?
Could it be that by rotating the crystal to a specific scale, one could inject a destination into the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p? After all, the coordinates were flat, but the motion of the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p was three-dimensional. But in this way, the principles behind the rotation of these two crystals were unclear.
He clenched his teeth and waved his right hand, causing the crystal to move even faster. At the same time, the body of the s.h.i.+p began to shake violently.
Through the window, Zero could see that the scenery in the cave had obviously moved a little. With one move, he swept the crystal with his left hand.
The shock reappears, and the window clearly moves a little upwards.
Zero finally understood the purpose of these two crystals. They allowed the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p to move up and down separately!
The direction control was clear. What was left was the s.h.i.+p"s propulsion system. Push the crystals together and imagine them as levers to push them up. Unexpectedly, the crystal stone did not budge at all. However, when it was pressed down by Zero, the body of the boat suddenly shook violently. In the window, stone chips constantly flew down. It was the result of the intense friction between the s.h.i.+p and the rock stratum.
As soon as Zero let go of the crystal stone, the s.h.i.+p"s shaking stopped.
He tried a few more times and found that he did not need to press the crystal. As long as he did a pressing motion, the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p would be able to propel itself. At this point, he finally understood how to operate the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p.
Inhale deeply, press zero void crystal, at the same time slide crystal with the left hand to adjust the s.h.i.+p to the upward angle.
The s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p shook violently, but Zero remained motionless as if he was nailed to the ground. He pressed on the crystal and shouted, "Fly!"
In the underground cavern, the drone was enveloped in a blue glow that grew brighter and brighter. The metallic wings on both sides made a flapping motion, and a huge gust of wind swept through the area. The s.h.i.+p"s ma.s.sive propelling force caused intense friction with the rock layer, but under that blue light, the rock layer at the edge of the s.h.i.+p was constantly peeling off.
Finally, the s.h.i.+p plunged into the rocks. Streams of water flowed down from cracks in the rock layer. A moment later, a loud sound rang out. The layer of rock above the cave crumbled in all directions.
The giant rock was accompanied by a large amount of underground water pouring into the cavern from above. Countless stalagmites were broken at the waist, and a large amount of underground water was sent to the outlet through the branches of the cavern, adding a powerful undercurrent to the underground river in the large fissure.
The original underground cave had been filled with water, turning it into an underwater world. In this area of the water, the U-shaped s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p wrapped in blue light flew higher and higher. Finally, under the six wings of the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p, the s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p drew a blue flame in the water.
Rus.h.i.+ng into the sky!
