As the yellow alert lights continued to flash inside the cabin, symbolizing the imminent launch emergency status, everyone's movements seemed unusually swift. The foldable chairs along the walls were quickly pulled down, and members of the Valkyrie mercenary group took their seats, skillfully fastening their seat belts tightly in preparation for the upcoming liftoff vibrations and potential high-speed maneuvers.
In this moment, Jim seemed to maintain his characteristic optimism and humor, turning to Leo sitting beside him with a relaxed smile, as if trying to ease the tension in his own way. "Hey, Second Lieutenant! Remember the feeling of riding a spaceship last time?" His voice sounded particularly loud in the quiet cabin.
Leo nodded nervously, memories of the last mission to Four Minnow Star flooding his mind. It was a journey filled with unknowns and dangers. Now, as the upcoming mission was about to begin, what kind of challenge would it bring? Thinking about this, he couldn't help but shudder, silently praying that everything would go smoothly this time.
At this critical moment, everyone on the ship was preparing in their own way. Whether it was using jokes to ease the tension or quietly making psychological preparations, everyone knew that once the Train of Harmony took off, they would face an unprecedented challenge.
When the yellow alert light suddenly changed to an urgent red, the atmosphere inside the ship became even more tense. A merciless mechanical voice echoed throughout the ship, announcing the impending change: "Launch in progress! Launch in progress! Please ensure you are seated in your designated position, prepare for launch, repeating..." As this voice continued to play, the Train of Harmony began to tremble. Initially, the tremors were almost imperceptible, but quickly intensified, enough for Leo to feel each shake as if it were directly transmitted to his bones.
As the roar of the ship's thrusters grew louder, Leo could feel the increasing pressure of the g-forces, from a slight discomfort to an almost unbearable weight, making every breath unusually difficult. Under this continuously intensifying force, his body was firmly pressed into the seat, and even his fingers felt a slight ache, as if every cell was resisting this sudden increase in gravity.
Train of Harmony's acceleration process seems to be telling every passenger that they are leaving the Earth's gravity and heading to a destination full of unknowns and dangers. In this situation, even Leo, a mercenary who has experienced countless battles, couldn't help but feel a mix of nervousness and excitement. This is a new challenge, a battle they have never experienced before, and the starting point is the intense upward vibration.
As the ship continues to accelerate, Leo feels his stomach churning, a strong sense of discomfort enveloping his entire body. Around him, some passengers wearing The Cult of the Celestial Worm Missionary robes are unable to resist the powerful pressure and are vomiting next to their seats. These sudden scenes, along with the heavy chaotic smell in the air inside the ship, intensify Leo's discomfort.
At this moment, a mechanized voice suddenly came from the ship's speaker, announcing in a clear and calm tone, "Preparing to leave the atmosphere, in ten seconds, nine seconds..." Each countdown sounded like a heavy hammer striking Leo and every passenger's heart, pushing their nervousness to the limit.
As the countdown continued, the ship's vibrations seemed to reach a climax. Leo tightly grasped the armrest of his seat, trying to stabilize his body with all his strength. He closed his eyes, attempting to calm himself through breathing, but the intense G-force pressure and the cries of the surrounding passengers constantly reminded him of the difficulty and uncertainty of this journey.
When the countdown finally reached zero, an unprecedented silence instantly enveloped the entire ship. At the moment of leaving the atmosphere, all the vibrations and discomfort seemed to vanish in an instant, replaced by a strange sensation of weightlessness. Leo opened his eyes to find everything around him had become so tranquil, as if they had entered a whole new world. The peak of this painful experience seemed to gradually subside with the stability of the ship, giving Leo and the other passengers a brief moment of peace in their long journey.
As the captain's voice echoed through the entire Train of Harmony, declaring that The Cult of the Celestial Worm's ship had successfully left Earth's atmosphere, the surrounding Missionaries immediately responded to the captain's words. Their voices were low and filled with devoutness, as if every praise contained profound emotions for their faith: "Praise Azra! Praise the Worm!" This chanting reverberated within the confined space of the ship, creating an almost ritualistic atmosphere.
Leo was panting, trying to recover from the tense ascent just now. He leaned back in his chair, trying to find a more comfortable position to relax his body and mind. After experiencing the intense vibration and pressure of the atmosphere, this moment of calm was especially precious to him. He closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and tried to detach his attention from the surrounding chanting and the mechanical operation of the ship, seeking that long-lost inner peace.
However, even in this moment of calm, Leo's mind was filled with thoughts and worries about the upcoming mission. He knew that this operation would be full of challenges and dangers, requiring careful and thorough planning and preparation for every step. In the confined space of the ship, every passenger, whether a missionary or a mercenary, was preparing to face an unknown future in their own way. Leo knew that from this moment on, their journey had officially begun.
