Chapter 288: Sir Pioneer, it was so dangerous!
As the barrage of bullets rolled, Sterkar's eyes remained calm and his tone was firm: "Leo, make sure that all members of the fleet escape safely. There can't be any mistakes!"

"Don't worry, Lord Pioneer, we have entered a safe route and will soon be completely out of Terra's surveillance range!" Leo's voice gradually relaxed.

Sterkar breathed a sigh of relief: "Very good, next we will analyze all the data obtained from this operation to see if there is enough intelligence to carry out the next plan!"

The fleet eventually evacuated successfully, and Elena successfully ended the invasion.

Leo's voice finally regained its composure, and he couldn't help laughing on the other end of the communication: "Master Pioneer, it was really dangerous! But fortunately, we retreated quickly enough and didn't give those Terra guys a chance to catch up!"

Sterkar smiled slightly and said slowly: "Well, although the mission almost failed, it was still a success after all, and we got the key data.

This intelligence will be crucial to our future operations!"

Leo grinned and said, "That's for sure! Elena is also a hero this time. If she hadn't cracked Terra's defense network in time, we would have been exposed long ago!"

"Don't be too happy!" Sterkar waved his hand, his tone still calm and cautious: "Terra's defense system has not yet fully demonstrated its full strength.

This is just the outer patrol line. We haven't touched their real core area yet!"

Leo scratched his head, looking a little confused: "Master Pioneer, Terra's outer defenses are already so strong, could it be that the core defense system is even more terrifying than this? Do we really have a chance to break through their core?"

"Yes!" Stekar said with a firm look: "This operation is just an exploration, the real challenge is still to come.

And, don't forget, our ultimate goal is the Emperor.

His strength is far more than just these outer defenses!"

Elena's communication was connected again, her voice was a little tired, but still full of energy: "Master Pioneer, we have successfully analyzed the intelligence obtained from the Terra defense system.

Although the data this time is incomplete, it is enough for us to understand the deployment mode of the Terra patrol fleet and their response mechanism!"

Sterkar nodded: “Very good, Elena, you did a great job.

Next, we need to further analyze the data and formulate a specific plan for the next step of action!"

Elena sighed softly, as if to relax her nervous mood: “Understood, I will complete the detailed analysis report as soon as possible.

However, Master Pioneer, I think we may need more preparations next.

The technology and defense system of Terran civilization are more complex than we expected!"

Sterkar smiled faintly: "Complexity is inevitable, the designer of this dungeon will not let us get 5000 points easily.

Elena, sort out the data as soon as possible. I need to understand Terra's defense system and the detailed deployment of their patrol fleet as soon as possible!"

Elena nodded and said, "Okay, Master Pioneer, the report will be handed over to you soon!"

At this time, Holden also appeared at the door of the conference room. He looked a little anxious: "Master Pioneer, I just heard that the fleet has successfully retreated. This is great! However, our resource reserves will be a big problem next.

You know, this operation consumed a lot of resources, and I'm worried that there might be problems with the subsequent supply!"

Sterkar glanced at him and said calmly, “Holden, the resource problem is indeed a problem, but we have obtained valuable intelligence.

This intelligence can help us avoid more battles and save resources.

What you need to do is to dispatch the remaining resources as quickly as possible to ensure that the next operation can be carried out smoothly!"

Holden nodded quickly: “Yes, yes, Master Pioneer, I understand.

I will handle it right away and ensure that subsequent actions will not be delayed!"

While they were busy, the comments in the live broadcast room started rolling again:

[Elena is awesome! She actually managed to crack Terra's defense system! ]

[Fortunately, although he was almost exposed, Sterkar's operation was safe this time! ]

[But this is just the periphery! I heard from Stekar that Terra's core defense system is even more terrifying! ]

[I told you, a 5000-point mission couldn't possibly be this easy! This is just an appetizer!]

[Emperor! Sterkar's ultimate goal is the Emperor! Is it really possible? ]

[The design of this dungeon designer, Blue Star 009, is amazing. It completely captures the heartbeat rhythm of the players! Every step makes people sweat! ]

Sterkar ignored the comments and continued to calmly arrange the next task: "Savier, does the intelligence department have any further information about the Terra civilization? Although our operation has not been completely exposed this time, we can't take it lightly!"

Xavier immediately stood up straight and said seriously: "Master Pioneer, the intelligence department is currently monitoring Terra's communication traffic. Their defense adjustments have indeed accelerated, but there is no sign that they have noticed us!"

Sterkar nodded slightly: "Continue to monitor, and report immediately if you find any abnormalities!"

Savile quickly responded: "Understood, I'll keep an eye on it!"

At this moment, Leo's voice came again, full of confidence: "Master Pioneer, the fleet has completely entered the safe area, and all warships are intact.

We can now return to the planet to repair and prepare for the next mission at any time!"

Sterkar nodded: “Very good, Leo.

Notify all captains and ask them to remain on high alert. The Terra civilization may make new moves at any time!"

Leo promised loudly: "Don't worry, Master Pioneer, I will take care of it right away!"

As Leo's communication was interrupted, the conference room fell silent for a moment.

Sterkar stood in the center, thinking about his next plan.

He knew that this mission was just the beginning. The real challenge lay far behind Terra's core defense system, and what he would ultimately face was the existence that made the entire universe tremble—the Emperor.

As time passed, Stekar already had a clear plan for the next step in his mind.

He slowly turned around, smiled at the sky, and said calmly and firmly: "This copy has just begun!"

The barrage broke out again:

[Ahhh, Stekar is so calm! ]

[I also think this is just the beginning. The dungeon designer will definitely have more tricks up his sleeve! ]

[The Terran civilization in Warhammer 40K is not so easy to deal with. Sterkar will definitely face greater challenges next! ]

[Haha, I want to see how Sterkar faces the Emperor now!] [The dungeon designer, Azure Star 009, is a genius! Every mission is designed to be thrilling!]

[5000 points! Let's wait and see how Stekar wins! ]

Stekar stood there, a sharp gleam in his eyes.

He knew that the real decisive battle was still a long way off, and he and his Raider Planet would face greater challenges in the coming battles.

"Elena, please send the data to me as soon as it is sorted out. We will conduct more simulations next!" Stekar said lightly, with a hint of foresight in his voice.

"Understood, Master Pioneer, I will speed up the process!" Although Elena's voice sounded tired, it was still firm.

“Leo, once the fleet is ready, conduct tactical drills immediately.

We must always be prepared to deal with any emergency situation of Terra civilization!" Sterkar continued to give orders.

"No problem, Master Pioneer!" Leo responded excitedly: "Although this battle was thrilling, it also made me understand a lot.

I will make the fleet more prepared!"

Sterkar stood in the center of the conference hall, looking forward with a firm gaze: "We will not stop here. The true power of Terra civilization has not yet been fully demonstrated, and we still have a lot to prepare!"

"This battle has just begun!"

After Leo hurriedly left the conference hall, the entire hall fell into a brief silence again, with only the sound of various equipment operating gently echoing.

Sterkar stood in front of the light screen, swiping his fingers gently, and the data in front of him kept changing.

"Master Pioneer!" Tomoko's voice suddenly sounded: "I suggest you take a rest. Several consecutive days of high-intensity work and combat command may affect your judgment!"

Sterkar raised his eyebrows and said calmly: "Now is not the time to relax. The direction of Terra civilization is unclear. Any relaxation may cause us to pay a huge price!"

Tomoko maintained her usual calm tone: “Understood.

However, based on the intelligence analysis we obtained from the mission, the defense node layout of the Terra civilization is not impeccable.

If we can accurately strike these nodes in the next operation, we may be able to complete the mission at a lower cost!"

Sterkar paused for a moment and nodded: “Your analysis makes sense.

But we must be more careful, because the designer of this copy, Blue Star No. 009, will not let us pass easily.

At every step, there may be new traps waiting for us!"

"Yes, Lord Pioneer, I will continue to monitor the movements of Terra civilization and analyze the latest tactical data in real time!" Tomoko's voice was as calm as ever.

At this time, Elena’s communication was connected, and her voice was a little tired: “Master Pioneer, the intelligence analysis report has been completed.

I compiled all the useful information extracted from the Terra defense network, including the response time of their patrol fleets, fleet organization, and the distribution of core defense nodes!"

Sterkar didn't waste any time on small talk and asked directly, "What is the distribution of the core defense nodes? Are there any obvious weaknesses?"

Elena paused, as if considering how to word it: "From the intelligence, Terra's core defense nodes are not completely impeccable. Although their defense system is extremely complex, the protection of several nodes is relatively weak.

By attacking these nodes, we can paralyze part of their defenses.

However, this process may trigger a higher level of defense system, and the situation may become more difficult by then!"

Sterkar groaned for a moment and said coldly: "A higher level of defense? That's exactly what we have to face.

No matter what, we must break the core defense line of Terra civilization. Only in this way can we penetrate into the core of their civilization!"

Elena's voice was a little nervous: "Master Pioneer, if we choose to force a breakthrough, it is likely to trigger a large-scale reaction from the Terra civilization. At that time, they will mobilize more warships, or even the Emperor himself to intervene - we must carefully consider this risk!"

Sterkar sneered: "Emperor? He won't act easily.

Our actions now are not enough to make him do it himself.

However, adequate preparation must be made in advance.

How is Leo's fleet adjustment going?"

Elena quickly replied: "Leo has already started fleet preparation and tactical drills. Based on the patrol fleet data we obtained, Leo has formulated a targeted exercise plan to ensure that the enemy's attack can be avoided to the greatest extent in the next operation!"

"Very good!" Sterkar nodded with satisfaction: "We can't just rely on hacking. Although intelligence acquisition is very important, the strength of Terra civilization cannot be underestimated.

Next, we must develop a comprehensive set of tactics, including hacking, precision strikes, and fleet raids, for a comprehensive and three-dimensional operation!"

There was a hint of thought in Elena’s voice: “Yes, Master Pioneer, I agree with this idea.

The defense system of Terra civilization is too powerful, and a single method is unlikely to be effective.

We can first weaken their defenses through hacking, then send in fleets for precision strikes, and finally disrupt their counterattacks with direct raids!"

Stekar nodded slightly: “You continue to perfect the detailed battle plan and prepare all plans as soon as possible.

Remember, every detail must be taken into consideration!"

Elena responded: "Understood, I will finish it as soon as possible!"

At this moment, Savile walked in from the door, his face solemn, holding an encrypted intelligence report in his hand: "Master Pioneer, we have intercepted a very special communication from the peripheral intelligence network, which seems to be an urgent transfer order from within the Terra civilization.

According to our decoded analysis, they are mobilizing a hidden fleet and preparing to head to an unknown area!"

Sterkar frowned. "Hidden fleet? Are they planning to take action against us?"

Savile shook his head: "It's still uncertain, but according to intelligence analysis, the movements of this fleet are very strange, and there is no clear target pointing at us.

However, I think this may be their preparation to deal with external threats. After all, our actions this time have aroused their vigilance!"

Sterkar was silent for a moment, with a look of deep thought in his eyes: "Hidden Fleet. Terra civilization does have some secrets that we don't know.

How strong is this fleet? Any specific information?"

Savile spread his hands helplessly: "The intelligence we intercepted is too little. At present, we can only confirm that this fleet is very elite and equipped with a large number of cutting-edge weapons.
