Chapter 2114 Ye Ye's Operation

As the absolute brain and core of a starship, the captain's position is extremely important. Therefore, there has been a saying circulating on Venus: the commander of a starship, or even an entire fleet, may not be the one with the most skilled operating skills, nor the one with the best grades in school, but he must be a person with a strong heart and a high sense of responsibility, who can act decisively and make the most correct decision in times of crisis.

An hour passed in a flash. While Lu Yue was teaching Ye Ye the skills of starship driving, the shuttle was already nearing the end of warp flight. Lu Yue stared at the prompt of exiting warp flight and turned to Ye Ye.

"Next, I will manually exit the warp speed. Watch me carefully." Lu Yue said seriously. His hands danced on the console like butterflies, and each movement seemed so precise and fast. As he operated, the starship began to slow down gradually, and finally exited the warp speed smoothly.

"Now try to enter warp speed manually. Remember to pay attention to the energy distribution ratio and the calibration of the route."

Lu Yue reminded again. Although most of the work on the starship can be done by the crew, entering and exiting warp flight is a crucial link. As the captain, Ye Ye must also be proficient in this technology.

Ye Ye took a deep breath to calm himself down. Then, he followed the steps taught by Lu Yue and carefully entered the instructions on the console. His fingers tapped quickly on the keyboard, his eyes fixed on the data and images on the screen.

However, just at the critical moment of entering warp speed, Ye Ye suddenly found that there was a slight deviation in the energy distribution ratio. His heartbeat instantly accelerated, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on his forehead. Before he could adjust, the alarm sounded suddenly, resounding throughout the cockpit.

Lu Yue did not panic because of this sudden situation, his voice remained calm.

"Don't be nervous. Adjust the energy distribution according to the method I taught you before, close the protective shield, and divert it to the engine." Ye Ye calmed himself and quickly followed Lu Yue's instructions.

After some intense adjustments, the energy distribution finally returned to normal. Ye Ye breathed a sigh of relief and continued to complete the remaining steps. Finally, the starship successfully entered warp flight and the alarm stopped.

"Don't be nervous. Small mistakes are normal. Next, I will tell you about the autopilot mode. It can make your life much easier in most routine navigation, but in special circumstances, you still have to rely on manual operation."

Lu Yue patiently continued to teach the precautions of driving a starship. Although this starship did not have an automatic driving function, Ye Ye still listened and learned attentively, working hard to improve his driving skills.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, the shuttle crossed the endless void like a flash of lightning and arrived at its destination - a rubble area on a mining planet that had become fragmented due to excessive mining.

This area was supposed to be a prosperous mining area, but due to long-term over-exploitation, large areas of the mining planet collapsed, forming a barren rubble belt. These rubbles float aimlessly in space, and their movement speeds vary depending on their size.

Lu Yue stood in front of the observation window, pointed at the piles of rubble floating in the void, and introduced them to Ye Ye.

"This is the rubble area of a certain mining planet. It also exists in the real world. Moreover, it is very close to a certain planet of our China."

he went on.

"These gravels vary in size and speed, so we can do some target practice here. Although the fire control locking system is easy to use and can cover most combat scenarios, on the battlefield, the situation often changes rapidly. You can never predict whether you will have to switch to manual aiming mode to fight in the next second."

Ye Ye listened to Lu Yue's explanation attentively, nodding from time to time to show his understanding.

In this way, one of them imparted knowledge and skills seriously, and the other learned humbly, and time passed unknowingly. In a blink of an eye, five hours passed. Lu Yue looked at Ye Ye in front of him. Although his face revealed a trace of fatigue, his eyes flashed with a little excitement.

On the other hand, Lu Yue's mouth twitched slightly when he looked at Ye Ye, whose excitement had not yet subsided.

Five hours passed, and Lu Yue used almost cramming teaching methods to cram countless knowledge into Ye Ye's mind. Perhaps because there were too many knowledge points, Ye Ye always encountered various accidents... and many accidents that made people laugh and cry.

For example, when Ye Ye was driving the shuttle, he accidentally mistook the warp flight start button for the fire control radar scan button. This mistake almost caused the shuttle to launch a small torpedo while entering warp flight.

You know, the driving manual clearly stipulates that it is strictly forbidden to use any weapons during warp flight. This is not because the speed of the warp jump is too fast, causing the weapons to be unable to be used normally, but because doing so is extremely likely to cause a barrel explosion accident.

In fact, similar cases have happened before. Once, a large cruiser violated the rules and used photon torpedoes to shoot while chasing the enemy in warp flight. However, unexpectedly, the cruiser eventually collided with the torpedo it had launched! After all, the speed of a torpedo is far less than that of a starship entering warp jump. The gap between the two is like a world of difference.

This was not the only time Ye Ye had made such a mistake. His various operational errors gave Lu Yue a headache.

"Brother Ye, driving a starship is no joke, don't let your imagination run wild..."

Lu Yue looked at Ye Ye, who was still obsessed with studying all kinds of weird tactics, and couldn't help but sigh helplessly, then spoke.

Hearing Lu Yue's words, Ye Ye scratched his head a little embarrassedly. In fact, it really can't be blamed on him for having wild ideas. After all, this is what the system's skill book teaches!

Ye Ye's learning speed was very fast. In just a few hours, he was like a sponge, quickly absorbing the knowledge that Lu Yue taught him. However, this was not because Ye Ye had extraordinary talent, but because Ye Ye's brain began to ache ten minutes after Lu Yue began to lecture.

Those unfamiliar terms, professional terms, and various buttons and precautions that he had never heard of were almost bursting his brain. Just when Ye Ye felt that his brain was about to crash, he suddenly had an idea and remembered the starship driving skill book engraved by the system.

So, Ye Ye used this skill book without hesitation. Instantly, a stream of information poured into his mind like a tide, and the knowledge that originally gave him a headache became clear and easy to understand.

At that moment, countless knowledge flooded into Ye Ye's mind like a tide, as if it was engraved on a CD and deeply imprinted in his memory. This knowledge was like the stars in the night sky, shining with dazzling light, illuminating his originally vague cognitive field.

In the blink of an eye, the content that Lu Yue just explained was like a puzzle, which was quickly pieced together in Ye Ye's mind and integrated. This amazing learning speed even surprised Lu Yue. After all, Ye Ye was not like a novice who had just started starship driving. His comprehension ability was simply beyond ordinary people.

"ok, ok, I got it."

Ye Ye licked his lips and said as if a little embarrassed.

“I just thought this might be a better option.”

Hearing Ye Ye's words, Lu Yue rolled his eyes helplessly. He knew very well that these experiences were accumulated by countless predecessors after a long period of exploration and practice, and it was not so easy to optimize them. However, the wonderful ideas that Ye Ye just proposed made Lu Yue feel familiar, but for a moment, he couldn't remember what went wrong.

Lu Yue decided to keep an eye on it. He silently called out the auxiliary interface of the starship's simulated cockpit in his mind, and then turned on the recording system without hesitation. In this way, no matter what Ye Ye's performance would be, it could be fully recorded for careful study later.

"Okay, you should be familiar with the general operation process, and your hit rate in hitting meteorites is also quite high, reaching 90%! So, I think it's time for you to start real combat drills!"

Lu Yue said to Ye Ye with a serious face.

After hearing this, Ye Ye was stunned and asked silently.

"Actual combat?"

Seeing this, Lu Yue shook his head helplessly and explained, "That's right, it's actual combat! The meteorites you faced before, although they can be considered a form of training, are far inferior to our real enemies - starships! Starships are not only protected by shields, but can also perform various maneuvers and evasive maneuvers, and they are also equipped with powerful firearms systems! So, don't treat starships as those stupid meteorites that can only float forward!"

After hearing what Lu Yue said, Ye Ye showed a trace of calmness on his face, as if he didn't take the other party to heart.

Seeing this, Lu Yue continued.

"Next, I will summon a small shuttle ship of the demon race that simulates the driving habits of the demon race in the system panel of the starship simulation cabin. Your task is to completely bomb this enemy ship into a pile of debris within five minutes! Do you understand?"

Ye Ye smacked his lips and nodded to show that he understood.

When Lu Yue saw Ye nod, he immediately began to operate in his mind. In the system of the starship simulation warehouse, a small demon shuttle was summoned.

Not long after, Lu Yue completed all the operations. As he moved, the light strips around the cockpit instantly turned red, and the entire cabin was enveloped in a tense atmosphere.

"Warning! Hostile starship force detected! Encounter expected in one minute!"

Suddenly, a sharp mechanical alarm and a piercing whistle broke the silence of the universe, like the horn of death, foreshadowing that a fierce battle was about to come.

In front of Ye Ye, the red exclamation mark on the screen rose up like a burning flame. At the same time, a red dot on the radar map was approaching them at an alarming speed, like a ferocious beast, opening its bloody mouth, ready to devour them.

Seeing this, Lu Yue silently stepped back a few steps. Although his movements were subtle, they revealed an obvious retreat and escape. Obviously, the next operation could only be completed by Ye Ye alone.

This level of shuttle ship actually does not need too much assistance from the crew. With advanced automation systems and powerful driving skills, the driver alone can complete 80% of the operations. However, facing Lu Yue's hands-off, Ye Ye did not panic at all.

After all, such small scenes are commonplace for Ye Ye. Since using the skill book, he has "experienced" similar situations countless times.

Lu Yue stood quietly at the side, watching Ye Ye silently, his heart full of curiosity and expectation. He wanted to see how Ye Ye would respond in this emergency situation. At the same time, he was also secretly thinking in his heart, if it were him, what action would he take?

Soon, Lu Yue simulated a response plan in his mind, which he thought was perfect. This plan was like a perfect answer sheet, waiting for Ye Ye to answer.

What Lu Yue had not expected was that Ye Ye did not act according to the script he had planned in advance. It could even be said that Ye Ye had completely deviated from the method he had taught. Ye Ye was seen performing a series of complex operations on the virtual screen at an astonishing speed.

In an instant, their shuttle entered a silent mode as if it was under a spell. Although the engine was still running, it no longer provided any thrust, as if the entire shuttle had entered a state of sleep. At the same time, Ye Ye did not hesitate to adjust the protection system to full capacity, and the protective shield was like an indestructible shield, opening in all directions.

At this moment, the small shuttle of the demon clan quickly entered their visual range like a streaking meteor. Looking at the shuttle that was coming at them with great momentum and speed, Lu Yue frowned tightly, his heart full of doubts and puzzlement.

He really couldn't figure out why Ye Ye did this? Was he going to just stand there motionless, waiting for the shuttle of the demon clan to hit him? Isn't this a typical standing output? Lu Yue couldn't help but wonder, why didn't Ye Ye use the intricate terrain of the gravel zone and his more flexible maneuverability than the shuttle of the demon clan to launch a large-scale roundabout operation? In this way, he could not only effectively avoid the direct attack of the demon clan, but also give full play to his own advantages and cause greater trouble and pressure to the opponent.
