Idle game leads to another world.

Chapter 713 It’s on fire
In the cockpit, alarms blared and flashing red and yellow indicator lights alerted the pilot that hostile signals were present.

Alyssa shook her dizzy head and looked up at the display screen, which was like a radar, showing several triangular targets approaching rapidly.

This is obviously a bad intention.

Recyclers do fight over loot, but when Alyssa escaped from the starship in a shuttle, a friendly company sent a small spacecraft to approach at the same time. Do you think this is a coincidence?

Alyssa realized in an instant that those guys were here to kill them all.

Although only a large dark cosmic background could be seen from the cockpit, more and more targets entered the detection range, a total of sixteen targets, divided into two batches for attack.

This is a standard offensive formation. Although we don’t know where it came from for the time being, two squadrons have been sent up.

It is unlikely that this amount of combat power can deal with a starship, but it is obviously aimed at Alyssa.

Sixteen against one, there's no way they can win.

Alyssa immediately grabbed the joystick.

In short, run first and talk later.

But the joystick had its own ideas. Instead of turning right to escape, it turned left, as if it was planning to confront the two approaching squadrons of fighter aircraft head-on like the cavalry.

Having just escaped from the tiger's mouth, Alyssa's hair almost stood up in fear when she saw this.

Alyssa tried to use all her strength to pry the joystick, but it was no use. The shuttle didn't listen to her commands at all.

"Run! You can't beat them!"

Unlike sitting in an out-of-control shuttle, this shuttle was obviously controlled by some kind of existence. Alyssa thought it should be the 'Creation Machine. Divine Crystal' that had appeared on the screen before, so Alyssa was turning the joystick and shouting, hoping that the machine soul would understand.

At this moment, the oscilloscope on the side of the main control screen suddenly lit up, accompanied by a slight beep, and a man's voice appeared on the speaker below the oscilloscope:

"Who said I can't beat him? How do you know if I can't beat him if you don't try?"

Alyssa was shocked in her heart. If you try, I will die!

But the machine soul actually responded, and Alyssa quickly said:

"They have two squadrons! They are all experienced fighters. We should escape immediately!"

"Don't worry, I suggest you fasten your seat belt."

We can communicate, but people just don’t listen!
Not only that, as soon as she finished speaking, Alyssa suddenly felt a strong acceleration, which pressed her directly into the chair.

The four engines on the shuttle's wings burst into brilliant light. On the main console panel, buttons whose uses Alyssa couldn't understand for the time being were pressed one by one, as if an invisible person was controlling the shuttle.

The image on the screen representing the engine status instantly soared to maximum power, and the speed was increasing as fast as a stopwatch.

"No!"

Alyssa's scream echoed in the cockpit, but unfortunately, the void, like space, could not transmit sound.

–‐‐——–‐‐——

On the other side, Li Chengxi was completely into the state. He even took the time to disconnect the laptop that was displaying Viola's screen, turned on the music player and started playing songs.

The fierce drum beats and screaming heavy metal music, with the volume turned up to the maximum and the violent engine roar from the Bluetooth speaker, made Li Chengxi's adrenaline begin to soar.

He recalled the first time he saw a player flying a spaceship in a space battle in a game hall when he was a child, the excitement of experiencing flight simulation at the Science and Technology Museum in middle school, and the magical moment on Anton Star when he was in college. This time, it was Li Chengxi who was excited!

On the screen, the box representing the enemy plane was getting closer and closer, and even against the deep background of the universe, the bright light of the enemy's engine could be vaguely seen.

The number is indeed a bit large, but not invincible.

Turn the mouse wheel and select the weapon option called ion beam, and quickly open the two built-in ion cannons on both sides of the shuttle body.

First, test the weapon performance.

In a short period of two seconds, the blue and white high-energy ions gathered into a beam of light towards the incoming aircraft group, just like the tracer bullets in a machine gun, drawing several conspicuous shooting lines in the pure black background of the universe.

Because the distance was still far and the sight was so obvious, the attacked aircraft group instantly dispersed and easily avoided the ion beam attack.

However, when they stabilized the aircraft again, they found that the Manta was gone.

I scanned the radar again and found that it had moved upwards.

While the ion beam was being emitted, Li Chengxi quickly raised the nose of the aircraft, and under the rotating jet of the engine, the shuttle climbed vertically at nearly 90 degrees.

When the enemy planes noticed, the Manta dived again.

Strong, too strong!
I don’t know if it’s because there is no air resistance in the void, but the flying feel of the shuttle is completely different from that of an airplane. The pointing of the nose is very flexible with the help of the directional control nozzles all over the fuselage. The strong sense of speed brought by the thrust of the engine running at full power is so strong that even Li Chengxi, who is looking at the screen, feels sweat in his palms.

This is much more enjoyable than the flight simulation driving experience.

The Manta re-entered the dive state, like an eagle descending from the sky, and pounced on the enemy aircraft group without fear, as if they were the prey pigeons.

People are in the cockpit and the radar is flat. When they suddenly encounter an enemy plane that suddenly climbs and then dives, the only way to observe is to stretch their necks and look up through the cockpit glass.

But the old hands will tell you, forget it, just maneuver first.

Because while you are watching, the other person's attack has already arrived.

Of the first eight enemy planes that approached the Manta, three immediately maneuvered to avoid it, while the remaining five maintained formation flight.

You can tell at a glance that he is a newbie.

"What a good fighter! Even a rookie with more than 20 hours of War Thunder flying time wouldn't do such a target behavior."

Li Chengxi was originally a little wary because Alyssa said that all the people coming were experts, but he was exposed after this test.

The muzzle of the ion cannon lit up with an energy-gathering light again, and as the machine body trembled slightly, several ion beams were fired at the enemy planes below that were too stupid to maneuver.

Two eye-catching orange-red flashes immediately appeared in the pure black void, and the Manta Ray passed straight through the two exploding flashes without slowing down.

The ion cannon was very powerful. Li Chengxi saw that when it hit the two enemy planes, a layer of something like a shield lit up, but they were defeated.

The problem is, this thing can't fire continuously, and you can only hold the fire button down for three seconds at most, otherwise it will overheat.

Although the void is extremely cold, due to the lack of medium, heat can only be dissipated by thermal radiation, which is very inefficient.

Every time the Manta's ion cannon fires, it will be retracted into the cabin to cool down again. Although it doesn't take much time, the firepower sustainability is very poor, which is something you need to pay attention to.

But it’s not a big problem, you can use it as long as you find the right rhythm.
