AutoTerra: Operating Systems

Chapter 15: Penetrating the Atmosphere

After completing negotiations and paying an advance for inter-service using Soni Sinclair's ‘ojek fuselage’ service, they finally entered the plane, preparing to make a departure to the Alam Darzia Satellite.

“Welcome aboard Supri Z Goceng,”, Soni said as they entered the plane. “Please, just grab the seat. No need for more snouts, we'll be leaving soon!”

“Hilih~ You are from earlier a lot of cincong, cumin seeds,” Instant led on Soni.

Before departure, Soni explained a few things about the flight using his plane to Arni who was the first time hitchhiking on this plane.

After that, Soni allowed the two hunters to sit in the passenger seat which is only available for five seats, while he also began preparing to sit in the steering chair.

Because the spacecraft is not as big as a commercial aircraft, even smaller, then this aircraft does not have a cockpit. So, the steering and seating areas of the passengers are put together in one room.

It only takes one pilot to drive it. How to drive this plane is fairly simple, almost as simple as driving a car, bus, or motorcycle.

Hence, Soni called it a plane ojek.

“OK, all are ready in place?” Soni started to turn on some one-on-one flying system.

“Ready!” arni said cheerfully after putting on her seatbelt.

While Astan remains with the face of the board after finishing installing the belt as well.

“OOokee...”.

Soni was already very excited to do his flight, both hands were also ready at the wheel.

“Stay in place, tighten your seat belts, and fasten your trouser belts. Do not let there be a trunk that haphazard, because we will travel to space matchless.”

Arni tried to hold back the laughter as Soni spoke so, between amused and embarrassed. While Astan was anxious to grab the pilot's blue hair until bald.

“Open the main hangar gate, Dude,” Soni said on the communication tool on the plane.

Slowly the hangar gate opened wide, revealing a black room that was also spacious but empty nothing.

Soni slowly runs the wheels of the plane into the room. After entering, the main hangar door was again closed as much as possible. The room is an area of special outdoor hangars aircraft that are about to take off from the ship. The function of the outer hangar area is to prevent oxygen loss on the ship during aircraft launch from the main hangar.

“Open gate area.”

Slowly the gate of the area opened, causing some of the air left there to go out without remaining.

Soni had a look back, trying to calm down Arni who looked uncomfortable when he saw the air coming out profusely from the area.

“Don't worry, Neng. Our plane is very tight, so the oxygen here will not leak.”

Arni just nodded his ass, although both hands began to clench tightly on the passenger seat arm so tense.

“OK, ready?”

Soni pushed the lever slowly, running the aircraft tires from the first slowly so it was getting faster.

“Slaunch, fly!”

The spacecraft flew out of the area, flying away from the Thornic Ship 035 towards the Darzia Natural Satellite.

Inside the plane, they did not feel any shock at all. Everything feels smooth and comfortable. Arni can also see beautiful views of the expanse of stars and also the surface of the Darzia Natural Satellite as the plane approaches the atmosphere.

“We only need 10 minutes to reach Darzia's atmosphere. So, you can relax first ‘lah, while snacking or what.

For a moment Arni saw Astan who was still calm in her seat while reading the comic on the tab provided on the plane. Fad Arni tried to peek at what kind of comic Astan read until Arni hurriedly turned his face with a tinge of red hue.

What I read was embarrassing.

“Hei, Tong!” call Astan to Soni. “You already have advanced comics ‘Dragon Swordsman Onar’?”

“Oh, yes! I have read until it runs out,” replied Soni enthusiastically. “That's the next big shot! Bininya the Swordsman Dragon Onar was cheating with the God of the Grave. That's the bin goat! The swordsman has been hard-pressed to’in hermit's scroll 5000 seconds for him. Uh! He was cheating on me. Cuckoo again with both of them.”

“Ooo…. So, fitting they again nganu it has been caught equally short?” Astan points a page at the comic in the tab.

“Ya, yes! It!” soni's pointers confirmed, and refocused on the steering. “Hire the swordsman. The next episode must be the same swordsman the god will fight. If you get to fight because of the snatch of the demonic bini, stupid is very they!”

“Waduh...” Instant flipping pages in tabs. “Befit in the forum his author blasphemed netizen. Because of this episode, right? Emang kemambingnya ‘lah bini this swordsman.”

“I hope to be an ex, let the swordsman get a better woman!”

Arni just silently lowered his head, twitching his own temple. Just found out that Astan has such taste in reading comics.

Soni's two hands are getting tighter at the helm, soon the plane will penetrate into the atmosphere.

“Everything, prepare. We'll soon be entering Darzia's atmosphere. There'll be a little shake, anyway. But, it doesn't matter,” said Soni.

“Awas you yes if until ugal-ugalan, I bump you later,” threatened Astan.

“Take it easy. All under my control.”

The plane began to plunge into the atmosphere. It felt a slight shock as the fuselage broke through the air which grew thickened as they entered Darzia.

Arni seemed so tense, his hands tightly holding the arm of the chair as this was his first experience of getting off the ship to a habitable natural satellite. While Astan remained silent, calm because this was an experience for the umpteenth time even though he rarely came here to hunt.

“OK!”

The plane made it through the atmosphere, now flying smoothly across a vast expanse of blue ocean in bright daylight.

For the umpteenth time, Arni was stunned by the natural scenery of Darzia. So beautiful with the blue sea sparkling, there are also two other natural satellites and the Gas Planet Yomna, the planet that became the center of orbit of this satellite.

“Woaaah...”

As Arni focused on admiring the beauty of the sea in the window of the plane, Astan and Soni began to chat.

“About where you going? I forgot the name, so instead nganter you guys here,” asked Soni accompanied by an awkward smile.

Astan is leaning, holding hands anyway. “Where aja, lah. The important thing in a place that many monsters Mutant Frog.”

“Ooo…. The Nyari Mutant Frog? Where there are many. Only swamps are the best habitat Mutant Frog. So, we're going there, huh?”

Astan just replies with a thumbs up.

The plane flew smoothly through the ocean towards a large island in front of them.
