Witch Punk 2840

Chapter 206 The Space Carrier
"I'll go fly with you." Looking at Xiu soaring in the sea of ​​clouds, Xia Ye said suddenly.

"What?" Chris didn't respond for a while.

"Accompaniment. After all, this is the first test flight. According to the usual practice, an accompanying flight is required, so that if there is any accident, it can be rescued." Xia Ye explained solemnly.

"But why didn't I hear you mention it before?"

"Hey... because I just thought of it. In fact, seeing Xiu flying in the air feels so good, so I can't help but want to fly."

"..."

"Anyway, that's it, I'll go back when I go~" After Xia Ye finished speaking, he crushed the Thunder Feather floating in his palm, and his whole body turned into a flash of lightning, flying towards Xiu's direction.

The distance of more than ten kilometers was crossed in the blink of an eye, and when he reached the girl, Xia Ye ended the effect of "Thunder Feather", and then immediately used "Thunder Knight". In the falling Xia Ye, she controlled Thundercat, ran to Xiu's side, and flew side by side with her.

"How do you feel?" Due to the loud noise of the propeller, Xia Ye had to shout to let the other party hear him.

"Great meow!" Xiu replied loudly, with a rare smile on his face.

"Actually... before... I didn't understand... why you... must... make this... small thruster..." she continued, "but now I... finally understand... la!

"Because flying... feels... really good... and being on a boat is... completely different..."

Xia Ye looked at her, and suddenly noticed something that she hadn't noticed before.

"You cut your hair short?"

Xiu had always had long twin ponytails before, but now he has short hair that just exceeds his chin.

"Hmm... long hair is easy...to get caught..." Xiu pointed to the air intake of the thruster.

"It's true!" Xia Ye suddenly realized that if the hair was sucked in... just thinking about it would be scary.

"In that case... the thruster will... be damaged." Xiu continued.

...So you were worried about this?But thinking about the strength of "synchronized strengthening" that can resist the breath of whales, it seems to make sense.

"In short, short hair is quite suitable for you. I think it is more suitable than the previous long hair with double ponytails." Xia Ye said sincerely.

"……thanks."

"What's the speed now?" she asked again.

Xiu read the reading sent back from the airspeed meter through the tail: "320 knots...about..."

Compared with the ship, it is very fast, Xia Ye thought, but it is still far from her ideal speed. I don’t know if there is a similar sound barrier in the ether. If there is, I don’t know where the limit is. Can you break through.

"Let's go back." She said to Xiu, "It's better to take a short time for the first test flight, and we'll have to test the landing later. In the next few days, we still need to test the speed boundaries at various altitudes, and draw out the flight envelope." .In addition, climb rate, turning radius, roll acceleration... etc. also need to be tested. All in all, there will be many test flights in the future, and you will all have to work hard~"

"No problem." Xiu nodded, then pulled it up, and after reaching the top of the semicircle, it rolled cleanly, completed a 180-degree turn, and flew towards the test ship.

It seems that she is really enjoying it, Xia Ye thought to himself, controlling Lei Mao and chasing after him.

Not long after, the test ship reappeared in view.

"I'll go down first." Xia Ye said, "You hover here and wait until the test ship raises the green signal flag before landing from the stern."

"it is good."

The two separated, and Xia Ye quickly landed on the back deck. After the effect of "Thunder Knight" ended, she became naked again. Fortunately, everyone was familiar with the way, and the new sailor suit was quickly delivered to her hands.By the time she got dressed, the two uprights on the rear deck had already been erected.

"Xiuji, it's up to you to land." Xia Ye said to the black cat who came beside him.

"I don't care about this cat~ But the cat is very curious, what should I do if another witch lands at the same time as one witch takes off?"

This is indeed a problem, Xia Ye thought for a while and suggested, "Avatar?"

"No, meow. The cat needs to be split into two groups for takeoff, and it needs to be split into two groups for landing. If it takes off and lands at the same time, the cat will be divided into four groups! That will definitely make me in a hurry, meow!"

"Hey, is that so?"

"Of course meow, master, you can't have three heads chatting with three people at the same time, can you?" Xiuji gave an example.

"Uh... that's right." Xia Ye immediately understood.

While the two were chatting, the engineers also made preparations before landing. Xiuji turned into two balls of tentacles again, wrapped around the two pillars respectively, and more than ten tentacles stretched out, weaving a sheet between the pillars. net.

Everything was ready, a green signal flag was raised on the top of the bridge, and Xiu, who received the signal, slowed down while drawing a downward sloping arc in the air, aiming at the tentacles on the rear deck and rushing. When going down about 20 meters, repair the thrusters that are completely closed, and at the same time turn on "synchronized enhancement".

This is a well-designed process before take-off. In case the landing fails and one hits the deck, it will not be dangerous if the "synchronized reinforcement" repair is turned on; and the propeller is turned off to prevent the running propeller from colliding explosion.

The girl dived towards the deck at an angle of about 30 degrees. For a moment, Xia Ye almost thought that the landing had failed, but Xiu still managed to crash into the range of the tentacles.The slender tentacles strangled her body in an instant, stretched like a rubber band, and quickly reduced the huge kinetic energy carried by the girl.

Finally, the No.1 Strike Witch in the world successfully completed the entire process from takeoff to landing.

From this moment on, the whaleship became something that no one in the past could have imagined.

……

The success of the first test flight cheered everyone up, all previous doubts were swept away, and the appearance of Xiu flying freely in the etheric sea left a deep impression on everyone.If not only cat witches can use the "Strike Suit", I am afraid that everyone will rush to experience the taste of flying in the air.

The next day, the test ship equipped with catapults and assault suits couldn't wait to go out to sea again. This time, Curen also boarded the ship. Ye invites back to the bridge.

Along with Chris and Yaha.

"So, do you have any new ideas?" Curran said as soon as he was seated.

Xia Ye was startled, pointed to his face and asked, "...is it so obvious?"

"Yeah." Curen said with a smile, "You have written 'Look, look, look, I designed the Strike Witch is amazing, right? So you will agree with the next new idea, right? Yes, right? ?'--so."

When Ke Lun described it like this, both Chris and Jaha couldn't help laughing.

Xia Ye wasn't embarrassed at all, and asked along the way: "So, you will definitely agree?"

"Then you have to listen first before you talk." Curran was not fooled at all.

"Actually, it's also related to 'Strike the Witch'." Xia Ye explained, "We have finalized three ships, a supply ship, a ship equipped with rapid-fire guns and a ship equipped with large-caliber whaling cannons. Now there is the last one left. One, and the plan for the most important flagship 'Moby Dick' has not been determined."

"So, what do you think?" Curran asked.

"My idea is - the new 'Moby Dick' will be a ship specially designed to carry Strike Witches, and I will name this ship 'Helicarrier'."
