"Only Ah Xing in front of him had reached Nuwa's standard.
After reading the documents in his hand, Takumi put them away.
"All very good."
"Ah Xing, you will be the captain here from now on."
"I'll have people bring all the planes later, and those who have reached the standard can start actual flight!"
Takumi made a decision immediately.
Since most of them were qualified, although none had perfect marks, they could at least touch the completed aircraft.
Hearing what Takumi said, everyone's eyes lit up.
Ah Xing also became excited.
After speaking to them, Takumi walked outside.
Seeing this, the rest hurried to follow.
Outside, Takumi glanced at the completed hangar.
He raised his hand and swiped in the air.
In an instant, a huge space crack appeared in front of everyone.
Seeing the space crack, their eyes widened.
But Takumi stepped in without hesitation.
On the other side was the entrance of the aircraft factory beside the mechanism workshop.
The sudden appearance of the crack startled the people here, but after seeing Takumi emerge from it, they reacted.
It was Takumi.
In Liyue, only Takumi had this ability.
"Open the hangar. I will take the planes."
Takumi didn't waste time.
The stationed personnel hurried to open the hangar door.
Looking at the planes inside, Takumi immediately used his domain power.
The engines began rumbling one after another.
Then they slowly taxied forward.
One by one, the planes entered the space crack.
In just moments, the hangar was emptied.
After finishing, Takumi returned to the air force base.
The pilots stared at the planes before them, blood boiling.
These were real planes.
During simulator training, they had crashed countless times.
But the thrill of soaring through the sky made them addicted.
Their adrenaline surged at the thought.
Takumi had used the Herrscher of Corrosion's power to retrieve many planes.
Then he turned to the group.
"There are only a dozen planes so far."
"So I can't satisfy everyone."
"Those whose names I read, step forward."
Takumi began calling names.
The group became excited, as if injected with fire.
Even Hu Tao was curious, wanting to see the planes up close.
But she knew Takumi was conducting serious work, so she did not disturb him.
Takumi called out the ten with the best scores.
According to Nuwa's evaluation, these people could fly alone.
Takumi still wanted to test them.
"Alright, go change into these clothes."
"I'm taking you up today."
A set of flight suits and helmets appeared before them.
Seeing the equipment, everyone lit up.
These were the outfits mentioned in training.
They rushed forward to take them and quickly went to change.
Takumi looked at the others.
"You continue practicing. When you meet the standard, your group can also fly."
"If you still fail, then work logistics on the ground."
"More people will join you in the future."
"The number of pilots is fixed. If you can't qualify, you'll only be alternates or ground crew."
Hearing this, everyone straightened up.
This was no joke.
After tasting simulated flight, their dream now was to soar through the real sky.
"You can inspect the remaining planes."
"Nuwa, lock those planes. They cannot be unlocked without command."
Cheers exploded instantly.
"Great!"
"Thank you, Master Takumi!"
They sprinted toward the planes with excitement.
After they left, Hu Tao leaned close.
"Takumi!"
"Which plane do I fly?"
She was slightly excited, wanting to fly one into the sky immediately.
Takumi rolled his eyes.
"Go, go, go."
"No."
"I'm not letting you fly without training."
"If you want to fly, use your motorcycle."
Hu Tao wanted to play with everything.
Takumi was helpless.
Hu Tao pouted but didn't argue.
She ran off to examine the planes up close.
After a while, the ten trainees returned wearing flight suits, holding their helmets.
Seeing this, Takumi said:
"Check—did you bring the wings?"
They answered quickly:
"Lord Takumi, all brought!"
"All ready!"
Takumi nodded.
"Good. Everyone board."
"Follow my command."
Takumi headed toward a fighter.
The trainees' excitement surged again.
They all rushed toward their nearest aircraft, climbing into the cockpits.
Seeing this, the people observing—including Hu Tao—stopped exploring and watched.
Takumi sat in his cockpit and activated the radio.
He began explaining the procedures.
Much of the infrastructure, like control towers, was not yet completed.
They would need specialized staff later.
But for this simple sky tour, none of that was required.
Takumi could directly take over their planes with his power if necessary.
