Chapter 2, Audacious and Unrestrained
Finally, the mech ship stabilized. Lin Qiyu straightened his back, whistled, and proudly looked around: "Hmph, you won't let me down... Haha, am I not down now? Huh, who is that?"
Lynch Yu skillfully activated the ignition device; although he had never piloted a real individual mecha ship, his control on the simulator was exceptionally proficient
Lying on the sofa, Lin Qiyu began to contemplate his next course of action. He knew that he had to act quickly; otherwise, if Ke Zhenfeng discovered that something was missing, he would undoubtedly be unable to escape, and the grand adventure plan would be completely ruined.
His first thought was that his grandfather and the others were coming after him. He immediately panicked, hurriedly entered the invisibility command, and began to track the signal
Lynch Yu stretched his body with satisfaction, realizing that his entire gear was still quite heavy. He thought to himself: "It's all Grandma's fault for not giving me the evolution serum. Now I'm at my weakest. Sigh, this is going to be tough. However, for the sake of my great adventure, all of this is worth it. Haha!"
Lynch Yu turned off the energy switch, removed the helmet, stretched vigorously, moved his sore neck a bit, and crawled out of the cockpit
Recalling the promise made to my partner, it has not even been half a day, and the little rascal actually dared to sneak away in a single-soldier battle mech ship, which infuriated the old man
The mech ship shook violently, and Lin Qiyu shouted loudly: "Wow, wow... wow... I'm going to be shaken to death..." His strength was too weak, and he could see that he could not press down the control stick.
If his elder brother were to see this, he would surely go mad; this is simply a test of the fatigue level of the mecha ship
Linqiyu, feeling guilty, glanced back nervously, laughing heartily with a chuckle. He reached out to pick up a small metal box, stuffing it with handfuls of items.
The canyon is difficult to descend, and Lin Qiyu is wearing a scanning helmet, searching for a path to climb down.
A slight tremor occurred, and a few minutes later, Lin Qiyu shook the kettle and heard the sound of water inside.
Lin Junbao was in the command cabin like a trapped beast, and the freshly brewed cloud mist tea was smashed to the ground along with the cup.
Lynch Yu piloted the aircraft to escape, causing the entire Silver Leopard exploration spaceship to descend into chaos
Lynch Yu let out a breath, activated the protective energy shield for entering the planet's atmosphere, and shouted: "Haha, I'm here!"
Put on the high-performance lightweight armored protective suit and multifunctional boots first, then wear the scanning helmet. Insert the shock knife into the outer thigh, pick up the 82-centimeter long kinetic gun, quickly fold it up, and place it into the gun pouch on the back. Insert four high-performance magazines diagonally into the chest pouch, and then insert the small missiles one by one into the spare magazine on the lower back. Finally, toss some small gadgets haphazardly into the backpack.
Lynch Yu immediately activated the fine analysis function, and the sound reemerged, albeit in a more indistinct manner
In fact, Lin Qiyu himself did not know what to do with these weapons; it was merely a natural affinity of a young man for powerful weaponry.
He wants to quickly send this recording to his grandfather, as the instruments on the ship will surely be able to analyze what these people said
He fastened the red and white striped helmet onto his head, feeling a sudden heaviness, and couldn't help but exclaim, "Oh dear, this heavy helmet is going to crush me to death." He then busied himself adjusting the helmet's elevation knob, otherwise he wouldn't be able to see anything.
Not far away, there are dozens of scattered red dots, which represent a group of people searching for something, and they are very close to his mecha ship
Lynch Yu twisted her body, dragging out the equipment that had just been pushed under the bed, and then opened the lightweight metal box on the bed, beginning to put on the gear.
Linqiyu almost burst into laughter and casually typed "YES" to send back. He knew that his grandfather had tacitly approved of his adventure; if it weren't for sitting in the cabin, he would have jumped up and danced with joy.
After a great effort to climb to the top of the canyon he had just seen, Lin Qiyu finally could not hold on any longer. He leaned against a large rock and sat down, breathing heavily.
Before long, it displayed that the download was complete, and Lin Qiyu exclaimed proudly: "Awesome... oh... yeah!"
After a while, Lin Qiyu opened his eyes, touched his chest, then felt the dashboard, and exclaimed: "Wow! I have landed!"
After circling around again, there is still nothing to be gained
Only then did the last segment of text pop up on the monitor: "Remember! Do not let your grandmother find out! You must return to the spaceship before your grandmother comes back, understand?"
Looking at the yellow planet beneath the porthole, he was filled with excitement and longing, whispering: "I am coming, oh, but how can I get down there?"
Lynch Yu looked around repeatedly, his small head swaying to the point that he felt a bit dizzy, especially with that damned helmet growing heavier and heavier.
He flew the aircraft close to the ground while simultaneously establishing a connection with the mothership's database; he needed the latest topographic map of this planet
He climbed to the top of the canyon, lay on the rocks, and looked into the canyon
Fortunately, wearing multifunctional boots has made walking much easier. In such a peculiar forest, wearing ordinary shoes would likely become impractical very quickly
He kept muttering, "I am escaping! I am escaping! I am escaping! Escape! Escape! Oh no, if Third Brother and Grandfather catch me, I will be doomed!"
After flying over several mountain ranges in succession, I surprisingly could not find a single flat area.
Lynch Yu knew that the landing ship must have flown out of the atmosphere He felt very nervous because he clearly heard his grandmother's name
Lynch Yu looked around and, seeing that no one had noticed, reached out to grasp the hatch, slightly shrinking his body before jumping in
If grandmother were on the ship, it would be quite troublesome, as she would keep looking for him. Now, he is finally liberated and free
"... ... One more sip, another sip, damn it ... ... let's play a drinking game ... ... not possible ... ..."
The most desired kinetic gun was first grabbed, and beside it were four high-performance energy magazines, which were casually tucked into the pocket. Then, seeing the directional demolition grenades, a handful was seized and stuffed into the pocket; these directional demolition grenades were only the size of a lighter, yet their power was immense.
Although Lin Qiyu has traveled through space countless times in the simulator, this time he is piloting a genuine combat ship, and his feelings cannot be expressed merely by excitement
... ... discovered ... ... the Silver Leopard ... ... reagent ... ... '' an aged voice drifted in and out.
Having packed his tool kit, he stood up, gently climbed the boarding ladder of the mech ship, opened the hatch, and bent down to crawl inside
Gao Liansheng complained: "You country bumpkin! How could I possibly do such a thing? I am not afraid of your scolding; I am more afraid of my sister-in-law's reprimand, haha. I was thinking, that little Rain is truly remarkable, managing to keep us all in the dark. Her actions are so discreet; she truly is the treasure of the Lin family... Haha, in my opinion, let her run if she wants to. Where can she possibly go? Once she has had enough fun, she will naturally come back. There is no use in you getting anxious and worked up!"... Haha, in my opinion, let her run if she wants to. Where can she possibly go? Once she has had enough fun, she will naturally come back. There is no use in you getting anxious and worked up!
After searching for more than half an hour, I still could not find it
Academician Zhong Beiwun... this time... seize... difficult to handle, we must...
He thought for a moment and couldn't help but smile: "Who cares who it is? I'm here to have fun, and I need to make the most of my time. If Grandma boards the ship first, it won't be any fun at all. Let's go!"
The two medium landing ships are approximately five hundred kilometers away from the mecha ship, traveling at a relatively slow speed, with the instruments indicating a speed of only three hundred. The mecha ship can easily catch up to them
Twelve individual combat mecha ships, six are secured on the top deck, and six are parked on the deck, with the exit located directly beneath each mecha ship.
He suddenly exclaimed, "Hehe, a small super automatic guided missile, I like it!"
This planet is characterized by numerous mountains and few plains, with some small lakes, and the vegetation appears to be quite lush
He was panting heavily and muttered softly, "Fool! Why didn't I think of autonomous driving earlier... Ah, the scenery is quite nice, haha"
Ping!
His head is a full size smaller than the helmet, and his eyes are just covered by the upper part of the helmet
An audacious idea surged uncontrollably into my mind: "Hehe, a single-person small-scale mecha ship... Wow, will grandpa scold me if he finds out? Can't be bothered, he's always so strict and controlling..."
He patted his chest, looked around, and whispered with excitement, "Yes! Done!"
Lin Junbao understood his meaning, which was to keep it confidential for the time being. It makes sense, if his old partner knew about it, it would cause chaos.
Grandfather only heard and said, "What didn't you hear? I heard it loud and clear! Come back!" The last word sounded like a thunderclap in my ears.
He opened the terrain recognition system and began scanning the terrain. He needed a small area for landing.
The mecha battleship circled to the back of the planet and plunged into the atmosphere with a roar.
If Ke Zhenfeng sees him plundering his treasures like this, I'm afraid he will explode on the spot.
Lin Qiuyu closed her eyes and whispered, "I didn't hear it... I didn't hear it... la la la la... didn't hear it."
Be careful to tidy up your things, carrying a large pile of prohibited items on your back and in your arms. Lin Qiyu muttered, "No one can see me! No one can see me!" and sneaked away to his own cabin.
Actually, he didn't see anything and was scared to death. This was his first time driving a mecha ship into the atmosphere, so it would be strange if he wasn't afraid.
Although he has studied martial arts and regularly undergoes strength training, after all, he is still too young and his body has not fully developed. This level of exertion is already his limit.
At first glance, he was greatly surprised.
Lin Qiyu dared not move at all.
Lin Qiyu is not stupid at all. He followed behind calmly and reduced his speed to 300. Even at this speed, it was still very fast, especially since they were flying at an extremely low altitude.
Lin Qi Yu looked at the scenery outside the cabin, picked up the remote control, took a deep breath, and said to himself, "The first step of the adventure is a success! Yeah!"
Once again, I carefully arrived at Hangar No.1 and scanned it again. Inside, it was quiet without any signs of life. Lin Qiuyu grinned and slipped inside.
Lin Qi Yu knows that the equipment on each ship here is different.
Lin Qiyu breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that the Silver Panther spaceship did not have a medium-sized landing craft, so this definitely wasn't his own.
Amidst the chaos and confusion, a loud shout of "Kuang Dang" was heard, and the hangar door was opened. Lin Qiyu shrank down in fear, silently praying, "Please don't let it be Grandpa."
He doesn't hesitate to take action, if he can't solve it, no one can. He raised his hand and turned off the communication device, and said loudly, "Who was calling me just now... No one? Then goodbye to you, haha!"
A loud roar came, Lin Qiyu turned over and crouched beside the rocks, activated the invisibility device on the lightweight armor, and immediately disappeared into the pile of stones.
A disc is spinning rapidly and automatically flying towards the landing ship. Just as the landing ship accelerates, the disc silently attaches itself to the side deck of the landing craft.
After sitting down, he raised his hand to close the hatch, and immediately adjusted the seat height. You should know that the big brother is 191 centimeters tall.
Everything is ready. Lin Qiyu began his first solo adventure.
Another remote control was installed, the switch was set, Lin Qiyu snapped his fingers and made a "pop" sound, but he was startled by the noise he made.
Data is continuously downloaded from the central computer of the exploration spacecraft.
Looking out from the helmet, it turned out that Ke Zhenfeng had entered
Suddenly, the scanning helmet emitted a warning signal. He quickly crouched down, activated the stealth device, and immediately enlarged the scanning image.
He suddenly became very curious. Didn't Grandpa say that this was an undiscovered planet? How could there be a landing ship visiting? Let's go take a look
This is a tracking display device. He turned on the display device, activated the listening device, but did not dare to turn on the scanning function
A medium-sized landing ship flew out from the canyon, just a few dozen meters away from Lin Qiyu
The mech ship slowly extends out of the spacecraft, with two mechanical arms firmly gripping the mech ship.
Lin Junbao shook his head: "You should not go, but I am not sure whether I should inform your sister-in-law or not"
He exerted all his strength and reached out to press the autopilot switch, causing the mech ship to stabilize immediately
When Lin Qiyu initiated the ignition, his adventurous activities were discovered by his grandfather
After performing three consecutive barrel rolls, the mecha quickly pulled up. The intense movement made Lin Qiuyu dizzy, and he exclaimed in his mind, "This is so cool!"
He pulled out a slender silver rod-like instrument from the side pocket of his backpack and exclaimed happily, "Haha, I found it!"
He suddenly pressed the control lever, activated the propulsion device, and immediately his small body sank deeply into the seat. The mecha ship rushed towards the planet at high speed, and the numbers on the speedometer jumped rapidly. In an instant, it reached the maximum speed of the mecha ship.
The mech ship descended rapidly. Upon nearing the ground, Lin Qiyu discovered that the plants on this planet were yellow and red, somewhat resembling the deep autumn scenery of Earth, and were exceedingly beautiful
He discovered that it was the landing craft he had just lost track of, but there was only one, resting at the bottom of the canyon, while the other had vanished without a trace. At the same time, he also noticed that above the canyon, in the dense forest, there was surprisingly a small flat area. He immediately piloted the craft to fly there
Old Gao smiled and said, "If you really don't feel at ease, I'll go find him... Yuer is still quite obedient, but he's been restricted by you two old folks, not allowed to do this or that. Now he's taken matters into his own hands."
He chuckled softly and quickly entered a long string of numbers. The metal door of the storage room slid open quietly, and he was so excited that he almost shouted, hurriedly covering his mouth, and then he dove inside.
The simulator and the real mecha ship are not significantly different; any differences that do exist are merely the personalized settings of each individual on the mecha ship
Lin Qiyu felt secretly pleased in his heart, because he never touched the mech warship in front of his big brother, but in private, he had already familiarized himself with the warship and even cracked his big brother's startup password.
His understanding of Big Brother's mecha ship is second only to the owner of the ship, because Big Brother doesn't allow Xiaoyuer to touch it.
This type of individual combat mech is also piloted by elites within the military, with a very strict selection process. Lin Qiyu felt quite proud to pilot such a formidable machine with a body that had not undergone evolution
After searching for a while, he muttered, "Hmm, where did it go? I remember putting it inside... Oh, here it is!"
Watching the landing craft gradually disappear, Lin Qiyu smiled proudly, turned over and sat up, and rummaged through his backpack.
He put in a lot of effort for this password, specifically obtaining the same type of cipher machine, carefully distinguishing the different sounds of each key. After listening to the sound of San Ge pressing the keys a few times, he had quietly memorized it.
Oops, I have only played on the simulator, never actually touched the real thing...? Hmm, didn't Uncle Gao say I was doing well...? Hehe, that's settled then. Yeah! I'm going on an adventure!
To be on the safe side, he activated the protective shield and pushed the machine head down. Muttering to himself, "Slow down...reverse key...the speed is...probably this number...never mind!" The mecha battleship roared and charged towards the flat ground.
He muttered, "If I had known, I would have brought the powered parachute; now it's going to be difficult..." Realizing there was no other way, he had no choice but to turn back, thinking, "I might as well send the recording to Grandpa"
He opened the helmet scanner and found that there were people moving in the canyon. These people appeared and disappeared from time to time. He speculated that there must be caves at the bottom of the canyon.
He pushed the mecha ship to high-speed cruising mode, and the mecha ship shot away like a meteor.
Lynch Yu hurriedly activated the mecha ship, quickly inputting the launch password while simultaneously turning on the remote control. The mecha ship slowly descended into the launch port beneath the deck
The front section of the mech ship emitted a fiery red light, caused by the rapid friction of the protective shield against the air. Due to the high-speed dive, the surrounding scenery appeared blurred
I only heard my grandfather's loud voice in the headphones: "Xiaoyu... come back!"
Looking at the smoking trees that had been knocked down, Lin Qiyu stuck out his tongue and thought, "Fortunately, it wasn't a rock, otherwise it would have been disastrous"
The heavens do not align with human wishes, and Ke Zhenfeng walked directly into the processing room, opened the hatch, and drilled inside
It was only then that he realized the mecha ship had crashed into the forest, stopping only after toppling several rows of trees. Fortunately, the protective shield had been activated, and the mecha ship sustained no damage
Lin Qiyu felt as if there were a small drum in his chest, beating incessantly with a "thump thump" sound. He pounded his chest vigorously, finding it amusing, probably due to being overly excited
Lynch Yu became even more anxious: "Oh my, Third Brother, please don't go to the processing room, all your treasures are in my hands, wuwuwu."
He forcefully pulled the control stick, and the mech ship executed a right roll
Lynch Yu is somewhat unfamiliar with landing the mecha ship, as the mecha ship is a space fighter, and its entry and exit are primarily controlled by mechanical arms. There are few takeoffs and landings on land, and there has not been much practice on the simulator
Gao Liansheng knew that he was not at ease with his own health, and said: "Whether or not to inform the sister-in-law is up to you to decide; I, Lao Gao, dare not make a suggestion. If the sister-in-law finds out that it was I, Lao Gao, who said it, wouldn't she chop me up to make dumplings?"
He took a refreshing sip of water, let out a long sigh, and said with a wry smile: "My goodness, this is really exhausting me"
I can't drink anymore, my friend
Before long, a scream was heard: "Xiaoyu, where are you?" Ke Zhenfeng suddenly dashed out from the processing room, his face filled with anger as he ran outside. It was unexpected that his plump figure could be so agile.
Lynch Yu chuckled, knowing that it must be two crew members quietly drinking. He gently turned the knob, changing the listening direction, and a clear sound immediately came through.
He opened the hatch, and a strong smell of smoke wafted towards him
Without regard for the consequences, he reached out to turn off the camera and suddenly yanked the control stick. The mech ship executed a beautiful somersault and sped towards the yellow planet.
Lynch Yu shrank his neck in fright, only to realize that the imaging lens was activated, and once started, the images would automatically be transmitted back to the command cabin of the mothership
Lin Junbao thought it made sense, but he still felt a bit worried: "Yuer has never been injected with the evolution agent, and I fear his body may not be able to handle it. Moreover, if your sister-in-law finds out... sigh, that would be a big problem"
Huh? Where did you go? Hmph, trying to evade me... No way!
Lin Qiyu shivered, realizing that she had truly embarrassed herself in front of her grandmother's house; just now, her grandfather had heard everything she said
Kelin Qiyu still felt extremely tired, as his entire equipment weighed over 30 kilograms. His body had not yet evolved, making it quite strenuous for him
Lynch Yu is a fearless newcomer, truly deserving of the title of the Lin family's bold fool. He canceled the autopilot, deftly pulled the control lever, and the fourteen-meter-long mech ship skillfully turned around and quickly gave chase
Two bright spots appeared on the display screen
The spaceship is quite large, and even with all the people on board, there are only about ten individuals. After four people left, the spaceship became even more desolate, and no one would pay attention to this little one.
He carefully closed the hatch above his head, excitedly rubbing his hands together, imitating the manner of the third brother, and kicked the wall at the bottom with one foot. Watching the password keypad fall down, he couldn't help but feel delighted
This place is different from the military; everyone has their own preferred weapon, so they are all modified. His favorite is his elder brother's mecha ship, which has powerful firepower and extremely fast speed, but his brother never allows him to touch it
Lynch Yu silently lamented, the mecha ship is different from the landing ship; although it only requires a short distance for takeoff and landing, it cannot take off and land vertically. In desperation, he had no choice but to fly forward blindly
Lynch Yu was still shouting loudly: "The scenery... is quite good! How... beautiful... ah!"
The sound has finally become inaudible
On the metal rack, there is a neatly arranged row of ultra-small guided missiles, each only the size of a large cigar. These powerful devices can be launched using a kinetic gun or a small launch pad, and there are several small launch pads nearby
... ... Position 8659001, and the No. 1 landing craft will rendezvous at 4531, 2343, all personnel ... ... '' The voice suddenly became indistinct
A stern voice from the communication headset said: "Yuer, what are you doing?"
He stood up and packed his backpack. Just as he took two steps back, he stopped again, thinking: "What if there is nothing going on? Wouldn't Grandpa just laugh at me for making such a fuss? No, I should investigate a bit more before deciding."
Fortunately, with the scanning helmet, he returned to the cabin safely and placed the items under the bed
He had long memorized the password to the storage room
He dragged out the backpack he had prepared from the cabin, opened the portable electronic map, downloaded the maps stored in the cabin computer, marked the position of the mecha ship on the map, and simultaneously activated the recording signal on himself, allowing the positions of the mecha ship and himself to be clearly displayed on the map
He pressed the button on the remote control firmly, and a slight tremor occurred as the mechanical arm released the small mecha ship, which slowly drifted backward away from the Silver Leopard spacecraft
After flying for about ten minutes, Lin Qiyu discovered on the display screen that something seemed to have happened in a canyon on the right side
Approaching the red and white warship, Lin Qiyu carefully opened the adjacent launch box, took out a multifunctional small pack, extracted a self-spinning threaded cone, opened the back of the launch box, and then retrieved a return line. He disconnected the line connected to the control cabin of the Silver Leopard exploration spacecraft, ensuring that when the mecha ship detached from the spacecraft, his grandfather and the others would not forcibly close the hatch upon discovering his unauthorized escape.
Having finished packing everything, Lin Qiyu opened the hatch and looked around.
He reached out to turn on the ignition switch and entered the identification password, thus enabling the machine to be activated at any time
Lin Qiyu piloted the mecha ship as if he were playing with a large toy, swaying in an S-shape one moment and performing low-altitude rolls the next, thoroughly enjoying himself. Just as he was having fun, he suddenly noticed that the tracking medium landing ship had disappeared from the display screen
He felt a stir in his heart, took out a palm-sized disc, pressed the red dot at the center of the disc, and with a slight "pop" sound, he raised his hand and threw the disc out.
Active scanning and passive eavesdropping are two distinct concepts. Eavesdropping is not easily detected, whereas scanning is more difficult to categorize. As long as there are preventive measures in place on the ship, initiating a scan can be easily noticed by others
After switching through four scanning modes in succession, not even a shadow was seen. Lin Qiyu, infuriated, struck the display panel with a fist.
What is most infuriating is that Old Gao is actually laughing on the side. The old man, enraged, shouted: "Old Gao! Did you let him out?"
He suddenly pulled the joystick, and the mech ship soared headlong into the blue sky
The canyon is desolate, with only the howling of the fierce wind echoing through it; the place where the landing ship had just docked is now completely deserted
The data indicates that these are two medium-sized landing ships
Approaching the porthole, Lin Qiyu pressed the switch, and with a "zzzz" sound, the metal curtain slowly rose.
He unfastened his backpack and took out the water bottle, then activated the switch to collect water molecules
