"Brothers, don't make a fuss. Our energy is limited. We don't have that much time to sit in the cockpit and do hard labor every day. Our goal is the stars and the sea. These boring tasks of sailing and daily patrols should be left to the NPCs in our territory. Otherwise, why would we spend so many resources training them?"

"But don't worry, this is on the premise that they have thoroughly learned it. After a whole night of intensive training yesterday, this group of elites has successfully mastered all the basic operations."

"Now, I plan to take them out for a spin, let them practice and play around, and let them complete the subsequent clearing missions. We players can just sit back and have some tea while giving instructions."

After hearing Xu Tian's explanation, the viewers in the live stream suddenly understood.

[Holy crap, that makes sense. No wonder he's capitalist Brother Tian; he's got a knack for exploiting NPC labor.]

Indeed, piloting a warship is fun at first, but if you do it every day, you'll become a space truck driver. Players should be responsible for drawing their swords and looking around aimlessly, leaving the miscellaneous tasks to their subordinates.

However, I still have some concerns about whether these natives can handle the technological advancements of Industry 3.0.

At this moment, not only were the viewers in the live stream worried, but the players standing behind these NPCs were also staring wide-eyed at their every move.

"Ahem, um, main engine warm-up program, start."

An NPC wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and shouted in a trembling voice.

"No, no, oh my god, this is too slow. With this warm-up speed, by the time we take off, the monsters below will have already finished three meals."

A player standing behind him immediately jumped up in frustration and shouted at him.

"Space stabilizer calibration complete, importing coordinates."

On the other side, in front of the navigation console, an NPC was frantically typing on a holographic keyboard.

"Not fast enough. Can't your fingers be a little more nimble? Where did your strength go when you're chopping trees and pulling weeds? If you're even a second slower in entering the coordinates, we might just crash into that mountain next to us. Re-enter them and pick up the pace."

The entire hall was suddenly filled with this comical scene of driving school instructors teaching novice students.

The players' frustrated roars and the NPCs' panicked yet desperate attempts to respond transformed the serious interstellar warship cockpit into a comedic marketplace.

The viewers in the live stream almost burst out laughing when they saw this.

[Hahaha, what the hell is this space driving school? This scene is hilarious!]

[Coach: Depress the clutch! Shift gears! NPC: Sir, what is a clutch?]

I noticed that these NPCs' hands were shaking; they were probably thinking, "If I had known this would happen, I would have preferred to go back to the village and farm."

[Those guys from Tian Ge's Guild are way too strict, but to be honest, operating a warship of this caliber really doesn't allow for the slightest carelessness.]

Under the players' almost nitpicky and strict guidance and constant corrections, the massive warship, though somewhat bumpy in the process, finally roared to life.

"Boom!"

The thruster ignited successfully, and the enormous reverse thrust instantly distorted the surrounding air.

The warship steadily left the flat-topped mountain range and successfully ascended to an altitude of several hundred meters.

"Reporting to the captain, all systems are functioning normally, the shields have been raised, and we have successfully taken off."

One of the leading NPCs was so excited that his voice trembled. He turned his head and looked at Xu Tian, ​​who was sitting high up, with a fanatical gaze as if he were looking at a god.

Xu Tian nodded in satisfaction, waved his hand, and said loudly.

"Very good. Since there are no problems with takeoff, let's get right to the test of the firepower system. Today, you will lead us to continue to wipe out the monsters on this planet."

Chapter 361 For the Lord

"Yes, sir."

Accompanied by a powerful command, the warship turned around and, like a dark cloud that blots out the sun, began to cruise freely over the green planet.

About half an hour later, a large number of dense red dots suddenly lit up on the warship's radar screen.

The NPC in charge of radar monitoring immediately reported this.

"Report: A large-scale high-energy biological reaction has been detected 30 kilometers ahead. The target is located in a rock cavity 150 meters underground and has been preliminarily identified as a group of gregarious underground monsters."

A glint flashed in Xu Tian's eyes, and he immediately issued the attack command.

"Good, target confirmed, fire, dig them out from under the ground."

At this moment, sitting in the main weapon control seat was Ruoxue, who had been personally taught by Chujian. Chujian stood beside her with a serious expression, personally supervising her operation.

"The main gun system has been connected to the grid, and the compressor has started operating."

Ruoxue looked at the data on the panel and immediately let out a delicate shout.

"Start charging up. Pull the energy valve to 80%, but not all the way up. 80% penetration is enough to deal with monsters more than 100 meters underground. Save some energy for later."

"Yes".

The NPC immediately followed Ruoxue's instructions and skillfully pushed the control lever.

The other NPCs responsible for the secondary artillery system also quickly sprang into action under the player's watchful eye.

They quickly adjusted the angle, aiming the dark muzzles at the unremarkable wasteland.

The entire process was smooth and seamless. Although it lacked the extreme decisiveness of a player's actions, there were no pauses or mistakes whatsoever.

"Power up, target locked."

"emission".

"boom!!!"

The warship shuddered violently, and a thick blue beam of light shot out from the main cannon, like a thunderbolt descending from the heavens, striking the ground in the distance.

The hard rock layer couldn't withstand the terrifying heat and energy impact for even a second and was instantly vaporized.

A terrifying, bottomless pit has suddenly formed.

Immediately afterwards, those enormous insect-shaped monsters that were hiding deep underground, which were either dormant or breeding, were reduced to ashes in this energy storm before they even had time to scream.

Those monsters that were lucky enough to escape being vaporized on the edge of the explosion were also blown into the air by the violent shockwave.

"Secondary gunnery, fire freely, clear the wreckage."

As the order was given, the secondary guns on both sides of the warship sprang up like mushrooms after rain.

The sound of energy pulses resounded through the sky.

The blue flames blasted the monsters out of the air into pieces.

"pretty".

Chu Jian stood aside, watching this near-perfect coordinated attack, and couldn't help but slap his thigh proudly. He turned to Xu Tian and said boastfully.

"How about it, Tianxia? My personally trained student, plus Xuexue's on-site command, the quality of this is undeniable, isn't it?"

Xu Tian looked at the area on the big screen that had been completely leveled, smiled and nodded, praising it generously.

"Indeed, you're quite capable as an instructor. At first glance, you're really something."

Qin Fengxue, also sitting in the vice-captain's seat, echoed with a smile.

"Great, it seems we can really hand over this part of the work completely from now on."

At this moment, the most shocked people in the entire cockpit were the NPCs who had personally pressed the launch button.

They stared blankly at the massive crater a hundred meters deep on the holographic screen, watching those terrifying beasts that were once invincible in their eyes, whose only hope was divine protection, vanish into nothingness with the slightest touch of their fingertips.

"Is this how adults operate?"

An NPC looked at his trembling hands and muttered to himself.

"This is unbelievable! Those powerful monsters that used to be able to easily slaughter an entire village are now so utterly helpless in front of these steel creations?"

Another young man's eyes welled up with tears of emotion.

At this moment, everyone was filled with ecstasy and pride.

In the past, they could only hide behind the city walls in fear, relying on these undead lords to deal with the monsters.

And now, they themselves are actually able to wield this power to slay gods and demons, and personally eliminate these threats.

With this initial success, the subsequent clearing operation went exceptionally smoothly.

This interstellar warship, piloted by NPCs, has transformed into the most terrifying cleaner on this planet.

The light from the energy cannons flashed across the continents, bombarding any powerful monsters that dared to show themselves.

After five hours of intense, continuous combat, these initially somewhat reserved human youths finally became thoroughly familiar with the entire warship's operating system.

Their eyes changed from initial fear and tension to absolute confidence.

The planet A-2-6 was completely wiped out by this indiscriminate bombing, and no dangerous creatures could be detected on the surface anymore.

"Planetary life detection scan complete, threat level: extremely low."

Listening to the report from the main AI, Xu Tian stood up from the captain's chair and stretched his limbs.

"very good".

Xu Tian's voice echoed in the driver's cab.

"You are now qualified interstellar warship operators. The monsters on this planet have been cleared out, and our field test has come to a successful conclusion."

He looked at the fifty resolute faces and gave the next instructions.

"From now on, all of you who have learned and mastered the operating skills, immediately return to the school in Asheria through the Ender Box."

"Your task is to immediately compile all the knowledge you have learned into a book and teach it to more people in the territory, so that they can also learn how to operate this warship."

Xu Tian's gaze became deep and filled with ambition.

"Our guild is about to begin mass production of these warships. I want to see an interstellar fleet belonging to our Zhutian Guild as soon as possible."

"And every new warship built in the future will need the people you train to operate it. Do you understand how heavy the burden on your shoulders is?"

"Understood, for the Lord, for the Guild of the Gods."

Fifty NPCs stood in unison and bowed, their voices deafening, filled with fervent faith.

Then, led by Clara, the group of NPCs lined up in an orderly fashion and jumped into the Ender Chest in the center of the hall one by one, teleporting directly back to their home planet.

With the NPCs gone, the once bustling driver's cab became empty and quiet once more.

Xu Tian waved away the surrounding players, telling them to rest or move around freely in other areas of the warship.
