Chapter 864: Dao Ancestor Stepping on the Clouds and Soaring to the Nine Heavens (1)
Editor: Henyee Translations
Combat Wolf had already become the focus of everyone’s eyes.
The Xuanwu Fighter he was piloting was the only hope in this crisis. In fact, as the pilot, Combat Wolf’s palms were already sweating. Even his breathing was becoming faster and faster. The meteorites in front of him were more dense than he had imagined. These meteorites of different sizes and distribution were irregular, making it difficult for the Xuanwu Fighter to pass.
Even though the Xuanwu Fighter’s defense was already the top of Earth’s technology, it was completely unable to forcefully pass through the meteorite group and let the meteorite hit its body.
The seemingly calm meteorite cluster was actually very easily affected. When the meteorite cluster moved again and collided with the Xuanwu Fighter, it would be like a bomb, pushing the Xuanwu Fighter away from its fixed orbit. What was even more terrifying was that once the equipment in the plane was damaged, it would face the possibility of failure.
In the command room on the ground, Zhao Guofeng also clasped his hands behind his back and remained silent.
Combat Wolf was a capable general he had personally brought up, so Zhao Guofeng was not surprised that he could step forward. Someone had to resolve the crisis, but the danger was still very difficult to ignore.
This made Zhao Guofeng even more worried. He also prayed in his heart that nothing unexpected would happen next. Finally, under everyone’s gaze, the Xuanwu Fighter approached the asteroids. As it advanced, the asteroids became more and more restless.
Through the image transmitted back by the Xuanwu Fighter, the ground commander could clearly see the damaged space station that was in the asteroid group and was still spewing frozen liquid out.
As the temperature in the space station had stabilized above 50 degrees for a long time, not only did this cause a large number of equipment to fall into a malfunction state, but even the lives of the three astronauts in the space station were threatened.
The three of them also noticed the Xuanwu Fighter that was driving over. Naturally, they knew that this was their only hope. If they could not evacuate from here in the next three minutes, or if the space station was not repaired to lower the temperature, they would be the first to fall unconscious because of the high temperature. Once they fainted in such an environment, no one could guarantee that they would wake up again.
Combat Wolf had undoubtedly become the hope in everyone’s eyes. After he approached the meteorite group, he did not hesitate at all and quickly pushed the booster of the Xuanwu Fighter.
The moment the Xuanwu Fighter entered the range of the asteroids, all the seemingly calm asteroids quickly moved and kept approaching it. These meteorites had never been calm. From afar, it was as if their small movements had stopped.
Combat Wolf gritted his teeth and kept controlling the Xuanwu Fighter to dodge the surrounding meteorites. Although such an operation would slow down his speed, at least he would not end up in a plane crash and die.
“Xuanwu is still 340 meters away from the space station!”
“320 meters left!”
“300 meters!”
In the ground command room, all the technicians watched excitedly as the Xuanwu Fighter approached the space station on the big screen.
The piloting skills of Combat Wolf were indeed very outstanding. Otherwise, it was impossible for him to approach the space station like this in such a dense meteorite group. Under normal circumstances, any trajectory would quickly adjust its direction after detecting the asteroids.
In the space environment, although the absolute number of meteorites was huge, it would not affect interstellar operations too much.
Therefore, throughout history, Combat Wolf should be the only person who knew that the asteroids in front of him were still flying according to their original trajectory. He risked his life to cross the asteroids.
This was because he really could not avoid it. If he wanted to reach the space station, he had to pass through this meteorite cluster. While everyone was holding their breaths, the pilot, Combat Wolf, seemed to be more open-minded. He focused all his attention on the monitoring screen in front of him. Every time the meteorite approached, the alarm in the driver’s seat would be especially ear-piercing.
Combat Wolf simply turned off the alarm system. He accurately controlled the trajectory of the Xuanwu Fighter. This was mainly because the Xuanwu Fighter’s control system was supported by the Sky Brain Satellite.
Therefore, Combat Wolf could always pilot the Xuanwu Fighter at critical moments to avoid fatal danger.
“Report! The Xuanwu Fighter has officially arrived at the space station. It’s currently trying to repair the space station!”
As the technicians in the ground command room reported, Zhao Guofeng and the others gathered in front of the big screen again and looked at the Xuanwu Fighter that was quietly floating in front of the space station.
Combat Wolf quickly pressed the activation button. The small nanomachines on the spaceship quickly acted on the gap in the space station in the form of spray.
Beep, beep, beep…
Just then, an ear-piercing alarm sounded in the space station again. The three astronauts quickly went to the nearest instrument to check.
The results of the investigation made everyone’s hearts turn cold. Because most of the instruments had already failed in the leak just now, the pressure in the space station was getting higher and higher.
Even though the three astronauts had undergone systematic and professional cruel training, the high pressure still made them quickly feel physical discomfort.
