Chapter 272 If they dare to attack rashly, we will make them pay the price!

At this moment, Zhizi's voice broke the silence again: "Master Pioneer, the main fleet of Terra civilization seems to have begun to assemble. They are approaching another area on our border and may be preparing to launch a tentative attack!"

Leo showed a hint of sneer on his face: "It seems that they are still unwilling to give up and want to further confirm our force deployment through attack!"

Stekar nodded calmly: “Then let them try.

If they dare to attack rashly, we will make them pay the price!"

At this time in the starry sky, the main fleet of the Terra civilization began to advance slowly, and their warships moved forward silently like ghosts in the dark universe.

In the distance, the false defense positions of the Raider planet flickered with energy fluctuations, as if welcoming an impending storm.

Sterkar stood in the command center, his eyes as sharp as an eagle, staring at every subtle change on the star map.

He knew that the commanders of the Terra civilization would not easily launch a full-scale attack. They were still testing the waters and looking for what they thought was a breakthrough.

But Sterkar won't give them that chance.

"Everyone, now is the time to test our will.

No matter how they attack, we must hold our line and win this battle!"

Inside the command center, everyone nodded silently, nervously and firmly preparing for the next step.

Stekar still stood at the core position of the command center, his eyes fixed on the Terra civilization fleet in the void.

His expression was calm, but deep down he was ready for the battle.

He understood that the commanders of the Terra civilization would not easily launch a full-scale attack, and every step they took was carefully considered.

However, the Raider Planet is no pushover, and Sterkar is prepared to deal with any emergency.

"Leo, how fast is the Terra civilization's fleet gathering? How far is it from our border defense line?" Stekar asked in a deep voice, staring at the star map intently.

Leo quickly replied: “Master Pioneer, the main fleet of Terra Civilization is slowly approaching the border defense line and is expected to reach our false defense area in another three standard hours.

They seem to be still cautious and moving slowly, obviously testing our reaction!"

Stekar nodded slightly: “Very good, let them continue to test.

We want them to think that we are on the defensive, but not to attack rashly.

This way, they will take further risks, and what we need to do is to strike them with a fatal blow when they show a weakness!"

Elena also stepped forward, holding a data report in her hand, with a little excitement on her face: “Master Pioneer, we have just completed further analysis of the Terra civilization data.

This technological data contains some very complex particle manipulation technology. If we can apply it to our warships, it can greatly improve our defense and attack capabilities!"

After hearing this, Sterkar's eyes flashed with a sharp light: "Particle manipulation technology? This is a very advanced technology. The Terra civilization is really not simple.

Elena, are you sure you can turn these technologies into practical applications as soon as possible?"

Elena nodded firmly: “Yes, Master Pioneer.

Although this technology is complex, we have already grasped the key points. All we need now is further experimentation and debugging before we can apply it to our warships.

I am confident that we can use these technologies to our advantage in the next battle!"

Sterkar nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, Elena, promote the application of this technology as soon as possible. Any advantage on the battlefield may determine the outcome!"

Holden also stepped forward at this time, his face a little serious: “Master Pioneer, although our technology and tactics are constantly improving, the problem of resource supply is still serious.

Our supply lines have been stretched to their limits, and if the battle continues for too long, our resources may not be able to keep up with the demand for armaments!"

Sterkar frowned slightly, then said: “Holden, the resource issue cannot be ignored, but our current priority is to ensure victory in the battle.

You continue to increase resource allocation while trying to find new mining locations.

If necessary, we can consider trading resources with other civilizations!"

Holden nodded and said, "I understand, Master Pioneer, I will do my best to ensure our supplies!"

Zhizi's voice suddenly sounded again, breaking the rhythm of the discussion: "Master Pioneer, the Terra civilization's reconnaissance fleet began to move closer to the false defense line we set up, less than fifty kilometers away.

According to the current energy fluctuations, they may be preparing to detect the energy response of our warships!"

Stekar's eyes turned cold: "They are going to take action? Very good, this is exactly what we want.

Leo, stay alert and don't reveal any flaws.

Wait until they are completely inside the trap area before we react!"

Leo nodded calmly: "Understood, Master Pioneer, we will strictly follow the plan!"

Elena added, "I have arranged a second layer of energy traps. Their detectors will be further disrupted. Any fleet approaching us will mistakenly think that we have a stronger defense force!"

Sterkar nodded and said calmly, “Very good, keep it up.

Although the commander of the Terran civilization is cunning, we will not let them take advantage easily this time!"

The atmosphere in the command center was extremely tense. Everyone was holding their breath, waiting for further actions of the Terra civilization.

As time passed, the fleet of Terra civilization slowly advanced and finally entered the trap area set by the attacker planet.

At this moment, Zhizi's voice sounded again, with a hint of tension: "Master Pioneer, the Terra civilization's reconnaissance fleet suddenly began to accelerate, and the energy fluctuations of their warships are increasing, and they seem to be preparing to launch an attack!"

Leo stood up immediately, his face serious: “Sure enough, they are ready to take action.

Lord Harbinger, should we strike back immediately?"

Stekar smiled coldly and waved his hand, “No hurry, let them do it first.

We need to observe their attack methods and strategies, and when they attack with all their strength, we can strike them a fatal blow!"

Elena stared at the star map nervously: "Our energy trap is working, but the Terra civilization's fleet is not completely confused.

They began to test us with long-range firepower, and seemed to still doubt our false defense! "Stekal sneered: "The Terra civilization is indeed cautious, they will not fall into our trap easily.

However, this also gives us the opportunity to continue to maintain false defense and not rush to fight back! "

Leo glanced at the star map and said in a low voice: “Master Pioneer, their attack range is gradually expanding, and they seem to be testing the limits of our defense line.

If they push further, our false defense will likely be discovered!"

Sterkar’s eyes were grim: “Then let them advance, and when they penetrate into our core area, we will launch a counterattack.

Remember, we must not alert the enemy, we must kill them with one strike!"

At this moment, the Terra civilization's fleet began to gather more warships, and their attack intensity began to increase.

The false defense line shook under their long-range attacks. Although Elena's energy trap was still working, the commander of the Terra civilization was obviously increasing his suspicion of this area.

The live broadcast room's barrage of comments surged again:

[Fuck, the Terran Civilization's fleet is really taking action! This time they're fighting with real weapons!]

[The pioneer is indeed as steady as a rock. He has been waiting for the right time. I really admire his patience! ]

[But the Terran civilization's fleet is so cautious, will they see through our false defense? ]

[I feel like something big is about to happen! This battle is so thrilling, the dungeon designer, Azure Star 009, designed it too intensely! ]

[Hahaha, this kind of battle of wits is the best to watch! The Pioneer's counterattack will surely shock the whole audience! ]

[Look, the Terran Civilization's fleet is beginning to concentrate its firepower! If they continue to advance, there will definitely be big moves! ]

As time went on, the Terra civilization's fleet got closer and closer to the Raider planet's false defense line.

Just as they were about to enter the final core area, Sterkar suddenly gave an order: "Leo, prepare to counterattack, concentrate all your firepower and hit them head-on!"

A cold light flashed in Leo's eyes: "Yes, Master Pioneer!"

Under Sterkar's command, Leo immediately mobilized the warships. All the warships hidden behind the false defense line were instantly started, and the energy guns of the warships were aimed at the fleet of Terra civilization.

"Open fire!" With a command from Sterkar, the warship's artillery fire exploded like thunder, and countless energy beams penetrated the void and hit the fleet of Terra civilization directly.

The Terra civilization's fleet obviously did not expect this surprise attack. Several warships were destroyed in an instant, and flames of explosions bloomed in the starry sky.

Leo's fleet followed closely and launched a fierce offensive, and the battlefield instantly fell into chaos.

"Lord Pioneer, the first wave of attack was successful and the enemy fleet has been thrown into chaos!" Leo's voice was filled with fighting passion.

Sterkar's eyes were sharp: "Very good, continue to suppress them, don't give them any chance to breathe! Let them know that our Raider Planet is not so easy to deal with!"

Elena also reported excitedly: "Our energy trap successfully caused the Terra civilization to misjudge. Their warships are in a state of chaos and cannot effectively counterattack!"

Holden also showed an excited smile on his face: "That's good, the pioneer's plan is too good, they didn't expect our counterattack to be so swift!"

Sterkar remained calm: "Don't be careless, the Terran civilization's fleet cannot be defeated so easily, their commander must still be looking for our flaws!"

The battle raged fiercely in the starry sky. Although the fleet of Terra civilization suffered severe damage, they still maintained considerable combat effectiveness.

They began to regroup and try to counterattack the Raider Planet's fleet.

With sharp eyes, Stekar stared at the changes of the fleets of both sides on the star map and calmly directed every step.

He knew that the battle was far from over and the real test had just begun.

“Next, we have to be more cautious.

The Terran fleet remains powerful, but we will not let them succeed.

We must win this battle!"

The smoke of the battlefield has not yet dissipated, and the fierce confrontation in the starry sky is like a silent thunder storm.

The Terra civilization's fleet had apparently fallen into brief chaos after suffering a fierce counterattack from the raider planet.

Their ships scattered, trying to regroup and look for an opportunity to counterattack.

"Master Pioneer!" Leo reported through the communicator: "We have successfully destroyed three enemy patrol ships, but they are quickly adjusting their formation and may be preparing to counterattack!"

Sterkar stood in the command center, his eyes icy but revealing calm wisdom: "Very good, Leo, continue to suppress the fire, don't give them any chance to breathe.

Although the Terran civilization's fleet is tenacious, we must make them understand that they have entered a territory that they cannot control!"

Elena's voice followed closely, with a little tension: "Master Pioneer, I detected that the warships of the Terra civilization are adjusting their energy systems. They seem to be preparing to activate some high-energy weapons! We must be careful, they may use their core weapons to fight back!"

Stekar was not panicked at all, his expression remained stern: "Elena, can you determine the specific type of their weapon system? This may be the key to our defense!"

Elena quickly operated her equipment. After a moment, she looked up and said, "According to data analysis, the Terran civilization's fleet seems to be activating a plasma blasting device. This weapon has extremely strong penetrating power and explosiveness. Once hit, our shield system may not be able to fully resist it!"

"Plasma blasting device?" Sterkar's eyes narrowed slightly, and he quickly thought of a countermeasure.

"Leo, order all warships to adjust their positions immediately and disperse their formations to avoid being too concentrated and reduce the risk of being attacked on a large scale by the enemy.

At the same time, let Elena's technology team step up the reinforcement of the shield system, and use the backup energy for temporary reinforcement if necessary!"

Leo responded quickly: "Understood, Master Pioneer, I will adjust the formation immediately to ensure that we are not hit by concentrated fire!"

The atmosphere in the command center became increasingly tense, and everyone was staring intently at every data point on the screen.

The Terra civilization's fleet clearly began to counterattack in an orderly manner. Although they had just suffered a considerable blow, their commander obviously had excellent command capabilities and quickly restored order on the battlefield.

At the same time, Elena's team urgently adjusted the energy distribution of the shield system and tried their best to prepare for the upcoming attack.

Her hands slid rapidly across the console, issuing commands one after another.

"Master Pioneer!" Elena reported quickly.
