Minecraft players are invading the worlds.

"Don't rush, don't rush, let's go to the cockpit. It's not fun to just leave it on the ground after all the trouble of building it. It has to fly out and have a spin!"

Everyone echoed this sentiment.

In this intricate network of passages, following the signs on the walls, they passed through the ecological planting area, the primary medical pod, the temporary armory, and so on. The level of sophistication in each area amazed everyone.

After more than ten minutes of searching, they finally passed through the last few heavy blast doors and successfully arrived at an extremely open area.

As the metal door bearing the commander's insignia slid open to both sides, a massive and technologically advanced bridge cockpit was fully revealed to everyone.

Xu Tian glanced around and discovered that the driver's cab was actually divided into two levels.

The second floor is a suspended semi-circular platform, where a very imposing master control chair is placed. In front of it is an enormous transparent holographic observation window, which is obviously the command seat for the captain and the first officer.

The first layer below presents a semi-fan shape.

Dozens of control panels are arranged densely, and each control panel is equipped with a metal shock-absorbing chair.

The screen was flashing various complex green data streams and radar patterns.

Xu Tian walked up the steps to the control panels.

He noticed that next to each control panel, there was a thread-bound book that emitted a faint glow.

The cover prominently displays the four characters "Operating Instructions".

Chapter 348 It's Getting Ignited

Xu Tian picked up a book at random and flipped through it.

The content is not obscure; the system even simplifies complex mechanical principles into various intuitive operating instructions in a very user-friendly way.

For example, the lever controls the thrust, several specific combinations can adjust the shield frequency, and there are physical buttons for locking and firing.

But the more Xu Tian looked, the more his brows furrowed.

"The operation method may seem simple, but to make this behemoth, which is several kilometers long, perform complex maneuvers in space, such as dodging meteorites and adjusting the firing angle, requires extremely close cooperation among the dozens of operators below."

Xu Tian couldn't help but recall the time he spent playing mods in Minecraft in his previous life.

Back then, sailing a ship was so easy. Press W to move forward, press space to ascend, and left-click the mouse to fire. One person could sail a warship and rampage through the sky.

Anyway, whether it crashes into a tree or a mountain, the warship's rigidity means it can just ram through it.

"Sigh, the world has really become more realistic, and the threshold for micro-management has also increased. This kind of highly coordinated operation is simply impossible to be a lone hero like before."

However, Xu Tian thought again, isn't this precisely the charm of interstellar warfare?

If it's really just mindless button pressing like before, what's the point?

"Brothers."

Xu Tian turned to look at the high-level players who had followed him in.

"Quickly learn this. It has operating instructions for different positions. Let's start this big guy and have some fun with it."

"okay".

Everyone immediately agreed excitedly.

Xu Tian took the master control manual and went straight to the second floor, where he plopped down in the large and comfortable captain's seat.

This feeling of having great power made him feel excited.

Seeing this, Qin Fengxue also lightly leaped up to the second floor and sat in the vice-captain's seat slightly off to the side next to Xu Tian. She picked up her own operation manual and quickly and attentively began to browse through it.

The fifty driving seats below were quickly snapped up by the players who were most proficient in mechanical principles.

The remaining hundreds of people who didn't manage to get a spot were envious, but they knew now wasn't the time to join in the fun.

They all left the bridge, intending to go to other areas of the warship, such as the main gun charging room or the logistics compartment, to see the internal details of how the warship operated.

The driver's cab was quiet for more than ten minutes, with only the sound of turning pages and occasional hushed conversations.

"Brother Tian, ​​this method is quite simple. The complex underlying logic has been encapsulated. In fact, we just need to memorize these instructions to get the boat moving."

"I think we should let the NPCs learn it in the future. Although they don't understand the principles, as long as we train their muscle memory, it should be quite easy for them to get started."

Qin Fengxue closed the manual and said to Xu Tian.

"Yes, that's what I think too. As long as you can press the right button and know which lever to pull when which light is on, that's fine."

Xu Tian nodded, then turned on the main control microphone on the captain's seat, and the sound was broadcast throughout every corner of the warship via the internal broadcast system.

"Brothers, how's it going with your studies?"

The fifty drivers below straightened their backs in unison and shouted in unison.

"Reporting to the Chairman, there are no problems. We are ready to take off at any time."

"very good".

Xu Tian took a deep breath, a hint of fanaticism flashing in his eyes.

"Shipwide announcement: The destroyer is about to conduct its first airborne test. All crew members still inside the ship, immediately find something to hold onto and prepare to experience the feeling of defying gravity."

Players wandering around the warship heard the broadcast and immediately cheered excitedly.

They rushed to the portholes, gripping the handrails tightly, their eyes fixed on the outside.

Xu Tian sat in the control chair, his hands on the armrests, and said in a deep voice.

"Each department, conduct the final pre-flight checks and report back one by one."

Below, a countdown inspection officially begins.

"The main control radar is activated, the airspace scan is normal, and no obstacles have been detected."

"Shield generator preheating complete, magic-weapon fusion frequency stable, shield system normal."

"The weapon control center has been connected, the main gun coolant circulation is normal, and the close-in weapon system servo motor has passed its self-test."

"Internal gravity balance system is online, airtight compartment lock confirmed, life support system is normal."

As various data scrolled across the holographic screen in front of Xu Tian, ​​the last player in charge of power slammed down a green button and reported loudly.

"Warp drive engine preheating complete 100%, ion combustion chamber pressure normal, reporting to captain, everything is normal, ready for takeoff."

Xu Tian suddenly stood up, his eyes flashing with a sharp light, and grabbed the huge push rod on the main control panel that represented the total power.

"Alright, all crew members, listen up! Main engines, propulsion system, maximum thrust."

Xu Tian shouted and pushed the lever to the top with his right hand.

In an instant, a deep, terrifying roar erupted from the stern of the warship.

Eight massive warp drive engines simultaneously unleashed blinding, dark blue exhaust plumes hundreds of meters long.

The terrifying force slammed into the ground, instantly scorching the solid earth of Asheria into a glassy state before exploding with a deafening roar.

The massive destroyer shuddered slightly, and then, the colossal vessel, thousands of meters long, defied the constraints of gravity and, with an unstoppable, ferocious momentum, slowly lifted off the ground.

The entire interior of the warship experienced a slight tremor due to the enormous acceleration, but it was quickly counteracted by the gravity balance system.

At this moment, the live stream room had completely erupted into a frenzied frenzy.

The barrage of comments was so dense that the image was almost invisible.

[So exciting! It's fucking exciting!]

The roar of the engine, the sound effects—it's simply art!

[It's up! It's really flying! A starship thousands of meters high has taken off!]

[I'm so excited, brothers! My manly blood is boiling at this moment, I'm invincible!]

Charge! Break out of this planet and unleash our firepower across the entire universe!

My mom asked me why I was kneeling while watching the live stream. It's because this game isn't just a game anymore; it's a real, second world!

At this moment, in every corner of the continent of Eshilia, countless civilians, craftsmen, and NPCs who had just returned from working in the fields stopped what they were doing.

They stared blankly up at the scene on the distant horizon, completely stunned, not even noticing the farm tools falling to the ground.

It was a silvery-white mountain range, a steel mountain soaring into the sky.

Chapter 349 This is called a special feature

The propulsion flames spewed from the stern of the warship, leaving a long, deep purple halo in the sky, making the originally azure sky appear as if a divine miracle had occurred.

"What is that...?"

An elderly human man's knees buckled, and he knelt directly on the ground, his cloudy eyes filled with utter shock and awe.

"Is that what the lords have been researching all this time? It actually flew out of the world."

The other human was also trembling all over.

In the still-uncivilized worldview of these indigenous people, the end of the sky is the abode of the gods.

And now, these immortal beings have actually built a fortress that allows them to ascend to the realm of gods.

This soul-stirring visual impact deeply shocked them, as if they had truly witnessed the descent of a god. Countless people across the continent of Eshilia knelt and prayed at this moment.

Inside the warship's spacious cockpit, Xu Tian sat steadily in the captain's chair, feeling the slight vibrations as the warship pierced through the clouds.

He looked at the rows of green data displayed on the holographic projection screen in front of him, confirming that all the warship's systems were functioning properly and there were no signs of disintegration or overload.

"It seems our assembly skills are up to par."

Xu Tian nodded in satisfaction.

He then immediately opened the system's built-in communication panel, found Clara who was in charge of internal affairs in the main city of Eshilia, and sent her a private message.

【The Only One in the World: Clara, my warship has successfully completed its test flight. Go to the main city and various territories immediately and hire some quick-witted and literate natives for me at a high price.

Gather them at the technology testing grounds, establish the first interstellar shipyard schools, and let them quickly familiarize themselves with the blueprints to prepare for subsequent fleet construction. Gold coins are not a problem; spend them freely.

Just seconds after the message was sent, Clara, who had obviously also seen the breathtaking scene in the sky, replied instantly.

Clara: Understood, my lord. You have made history for Aisheria. I will immediately issue the highest-level recruitment order and will certainly train the best shipbuilding craftsmen for you.

After turning off the communication panel, Xu Tian turned his attention back to the starry sky in front of him.

As the warship continued to ascend, the view outside the window gradually changed from blue sky and white clouds to a deep dark blue, and the stars twinkling in the dark universe could even be faintly seen.
