Chapter 432 Departure

In the bridge, Li Meng sat in the command chair and looked around the huge bridge.

The positions in front of various instruments and equipment in the bridge have been assigned.

Zhao Yuyan and Zhao Yufang are still responsible for communications and radar. There are seven positions at the bottom, one is the driver, four positions correspond to lift engines 1-4, one position corresponds to the steering engine, and the last position is the thrust engine. Because it is mechanized, the power of the engine can be adjusted.

The reason why the four lift engines and the main thrust engine have their own control systems is mainly to reduce the probability of damage. If it is an integrated system, if this system is destroyed, the airship will completely lose control. If the control system is separated, even if one of the systems is destroyed, the other systems can still maintain the power of the airship.

Li Meng looked at Li Yutao in the lowest driving position and said, "Li Yuntao, are you confident in driving the airship?"

Li Yuntao is a flight pilot. Although his license is an aircraft driver's license, at least his eyesight is much better than that of ordinary people. From the pilots, Li Meng selected three people as pilots.

They are Li Yuntao, Xie Yun, and Wang Pengkun, all of whom are big men with standard figures.

With a smile, Li Yutao turned around and said, "Don't worry, captain, this thing is very simple to operate, just like driving a toy. Although the degree of automation is not high, there are detailed instructions."

Around Li Yutao are six engine controllers, four men and two women, and Li Meng knows their names.

In the bridge, all personnel are in place, waiting for the time to set off.

Of course, Chen Bei'er is indispensable where Li Meng is. At this moment, she is sitting with Wei Qiunan on the seat on the side of the rear hatch, where there are more than ten reserved seats.

Yang Xiuling is also in the airship. She is a weak woman, and Li Meng will not let her become a combat soldier.

Li Meng gave her a position as a restaurant supervisor, responsible for the food in the airship, and should be communicating with the restaurant staff at this moment.

Not all people in the airship are mercenaries.

There are three types of people who are not, one is the technicians, that is, the logistics personnel, and the other is the staff who cook in the restaurant. They are all civilians in Black Flag City and were recruited by GYB-0 Security Company.

Seeing the captain looking over, Chen Beier waved happily.

Li Meng laughed at Chen Beier's childlike reaction and retracted his gaze.

To say that she is not a child, but her every move is like a child, but her age of 26 is not fake, that feeling is very strange.

Unlike the mercenaries in the first-level hangar, everyone in the bridge wore white camouflage combat uniforms, which are white overall with light blue patterns, short-sleeved tops, and long-sleeved pants.

This is a uniform. After finding their own cabin, all mercenaries will wear this kind of clothing.

The fourth to seventh floors are fully enclosed living areas. Even outside, there is no need to wear protective clothing. The first to third floors are open areas. Once there is action, the hatch of the harbor will open and will be exposed to the outside environment. The personnel on the lower three floors must wear protective clothing to avoid being corroded by radiation.

Time passed bit by bit, and as everyone on the bridge waited, five o'clock arrived...

"Captain, it's seventeen o'clock."

Zhao Yuyan on the lower floor turned back and reminded.

Hearing this, Li Meng, who was sitting in the command chair, became alert. He tapped the instrument in front of him, turned on the radio, and said, "Everyone, I am Captain Li Feng. This airship is about to take off. It may be a little shaky. Please make corresponding preparations."

It's time to set off...

The voice on the radio let everyone in the airship know the news.

When the words fell, Li Meng turned off the radio.

Looking at Li Yutao at the bottom, Li Meng said, "Let's go."

Nodding, Li Yutao turned around, his face slightly serious, and said, "The lift engine starts, the thrust engine is preheated, and the lift engine power is set to 30%. Don't worry, let's see how heavy this airship is."

"Engine No. 1 starts, power: 30%."

"Engine No. 2 starts, power: 30%."

"Engine No. 3 starts, power: 30%."

"Engine No. 4 starts, power: 30%."

With the shouts of several people, outside, on the airship in the square, four huge lift engines suddenly started, and the huge propellers and rotors started to rotate, and the rumbling engine roared through the world.

"Started, started..."

Even though the night was approaching, there were still some people in the square, and the roar outside also attracted the attention of the mercenaries in the city wall. Many people ran out of the city wall and looked at the airship started in the square.

In the square, the four huge lift engines of the airship caused rolling waves, which were almost visible to the naked eye and whirring.

But it was useless. The airship in the square did not move at all.

Seeing that the lift was insufficient, Li Yutao in the bridge shouted: "Don't worry, take your time, we have to adapt to this airship and see how strong its lift is. After the first time, we can understand it better. Increase the power and set the lift engine power to 40%."

"Engine No. 1 starts, power: 40%."

"Engine No. 2 starts, power: 40%."

"Engine No. 3 starts, power: 40%."

"Engine No. 4 starts, power: 40%."

Outside, the roar of the engine became louder, and the wind and waves became stronger, but the airship remained motionless.

Seeing that the airship was still not moving, Li Yutao glanced at the holographic screen in front of him. Based on the airship status information monitored on it, he knew where the power of the airship's launch power was.

Li Yutao shouted: "Continue to increase the lift, the power is 60%."

"Engine No. 1 starts, power: 60%."

"Engine No. 2 starts, power: 60%."

"Engine No. 3 starts, power: 60%."

"Engine No. 4 starts, power: 60%."

Outside, the roar of the engine increased a few points. In the rolling wind and waves, the huge speedboat suddenly shook, and then slowly rose in height, but the rising speed was very slow, and it took several seconds to rise to a height of several meters.

Seeing that the airship's launch speed was too slow, Li Yutao knew that the lift was still insufficient.

Li Yutao shouted again: "Continue to increase lift, power is 80%."

"Engine No. 1 starts, power: 80%."

"Engine No. 2 starts, power: 80%."

"Engine No. 3 starts, power: 80%."

"Engine No. 4 starts, power: 80%."

As several people reported loudly, outside, the rumbling sound of the engine became louder, and the speed of the huge airship suddenly became faster, higher and higher, and rushed straight into the sky.

Seeing the airship's take-off speed, Li Yutao breathed a sigh of relief and shouted: "Maintain the current power, thrust engine afterburner, power: 40%."

"Yes, thrust engine afterburner, power 40%."

Outside, the airship, which had risen to an altitude of nearly a thousand meters, started to rotate the propeller of the thrust engine at the tail, which allowed the huge airship to fly forward slowly when it took off, flew over the city wall, passed through the heat wave field, and entered the world full of radiation outside.
