Chapter 291 5000 points! This is a big harvest!
Leo's communication was connected immediately, and his tone was full of joy: "Haha, Master Pioneer! We really completed the task, 5000 points! This is a big harvest!"

Elena couldn't help but smile: "Yes, Master Pioneer, these 5000 points can not only improve our technology, but also greatly strengthen the planet's defense system!"

Sterkar nodded coldly: "Although we won this time, the reaction of Terra civilization was much faster than we expected, and the next operation will definitely be more difficult.

Next, we must proceed with caution and not take any unnecessary risks!"

Leo was a little excited, but when he heard what Stekar said, he calmed down: "Master Pioneer, what do you mean?"

Sterkar said in a deep voice: “Terra civilization has begun to deploy comprehensively against us, we can no longer act rashly.

Although we have obtained 5000 points, we are still far from having enough strength to confront their core defense force.

Next, what we need to do is to stabilize development and enhance the strength of the planet!"

Elena nodded in agreement: "Master Pioneer is right. Our planet is still in the development stage. Although our combat capability is not weak, there is still a great risk in a head-on conflict with Terra civilization.

With the points earned this time, we can carry out a comprehensive technological upgrade, especially improving the planet's defense capabilities and resource development efficiency!"

Although Leo was reluctant, he knew that Sterkar’s decisions were always rational: “Master Pioneer, I will listen to you.

Since now is not the time to attack, let's accumulate strength first.

However, if there is a chance, I still want to take the fleet to harass Terra to prevent them from acting rashly!"

Sterkar waved his hand and said firmly: “Leo, now is not the time to do anything petty.

We must take every step steadily and not waste resources and opportunities easily!"

Holden’s communication was suddenly connected, and his voice was a little excited: “Master Pioneer, 5000 points have been received. According to the previous resource allocation plan, we can start a series of upgrades immediately.

Especially the resource collection system, which is the key to our development of planetary strength! As long as the technology upgrade is completed, our resource output speed will be increased by at least three times!"

Sterkar nodded gently: “Very good, Holden, you are responsible for this aspect.

The collection and storage of resources will be our most important task next!"

Holden smiled and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Pioneer, I will do my best to ensure that the economy and resource reserves of our planet will reach a new peak in a short time!"

Sterkar continued, “Elena, your research team must focus on improving our defense technology and the combat capability of the fleet.

The technological power of Terran civilization is extremely strong, we cannot just rely on the current level of technology!"

Elena nodded immediately: "Understood, I will ask the scientific research team to step up research and development, especially to make breakthroughs in energy shields and antimatter weapons, so that we will not be at a disadvantage in future battles!"

Sterkar turned his gaze to Savile: “Savile, the intelligence agencies must continue to strengthen their monitoring of the Terran civilization, especially the movements of their top leaders.

During this period, their reactions must be more sensitive, and any disturbance must be reported immediately! "

Savile responded seriously: "Don't worry, Master Pioneer, our intelligence network has covered the outer areas of Terra civilization.

As long as they have any unusual movements, we will be informed in advance!"

Sterkar nodded with satisfaction: “Very good, in the next period of time, we have to focus on the development of the planet.

The Terran civilization is powerful and cunning, and we must deal with them with the strongest attitude.

5000 points is just the beginning, we need more! ”

At this time, the live broadcast room's barrage appeared again:
[5000 points are in hand! Awesome! ]

[Sterkar made a lot of money this time. 5000 points is enough to make their planet take off! ]

[Haha, no matter how powerful the Terran civilization is, what does it matter? Sterkar is taking a steady approach and not rushing into a head-on confrontation. How smart! ]

[Don't rush to attack this time, the best way is to develop first! After all, the counterattack of Terra civilization may come at any time! ]

[This is a chance for Sterkar to grow. Once his resources are increased, the next battle will be more certain! ]

Sterkar glanced at the comments and smiled faintly: "The audience understands that this is indeed a good time to grow!"

He turned to the people in the hall and continued to instruct: "All departments must execute according to the plan and do not slack off.

Leo, although the fleet has no offensive mission for the time being, you must remain combat-ready to prevent any emergencies!"

Leo waved his hand and said generously: "Don't worry, Lord Pioneer! My fleet is ready to go into battle at any time and will never fail!"

Elena was quickly debugging the scientific research plan in front of the light screen, and Holden was also fully allocating resources. The entire planet entered a tense and orderly state of development.

Stekar stood in the middle of the hall, his eyes calm and deep.

"Terra Civilization, I know you won't give up easily!" Sterkar whispered to himself, "But during this period, we will accumulate strength in secret. When the time is right, you will see the true power of the Raider Planet!"

Following Sterkar's orders, the Raider Planet began to enter a stage of comprehensive development, with various technological upgrades, resource collection and military expansion rapidly underway.

Every part of the planet is running at high speed, preparing for the future battle.

Sterkar stood in front of the virtual light screen, looking at the panoramic view of the planet, his eyes determined: "The next time we act, we must be stronger than this time.

Terra Civilization, we will eventually shake your foundations!"

After a period of time, Sterkar has gradually become familiar with the work of ruling the Raider Planet.

That day, he sat on the main throne in the palace, with Leo, Elena, Holden and Xavier in front of him.

The atmosphere in the meeting room was neither hurried nor slow, and everyone was waiting for Stekar's instructions.

"Leo, how is the situation in the army today?" Stekar rubbed his eyebrows, looking a little tired, but his tone was still calm.

Leo stood straight, with some hesitation on his face, scratching his head: "Master Pioneer, the army is basically okay, in fact there is no big problem, but the recruits need more training. You know, recruits are always a little green!" "Green?" Stekar raised his eyebrows slightly: "Be more specific, don't just give a rough idea!"

"Ah, well, it's about the new recruits. Their tactical qualities haven't been fully developed yet. You know, this can't be rushed. They performed OK in simulated battles, but, uh, if they encounter an emergency, they get a little panicked.

Actually, this is normal. After all, they have just started, and we can't expect them to be as steady as veterans right from the start, right?" Leo scratched his hair, looking a little embarrassed.

Sterkar nodded and thought for a moment: "Well, how long do you think it will take for them to reach basic combat effectiveness?"

Leo pursed his lips and thought for a while: "Well, Master Pioneer, I personally think that we need at least another three months of training. Of course, this is an ideal situation, provided that there are no other emergencies.

If there is a sudden enemy attack, it's hard to say, but our current defense system is still quite reliable, Elena, what do you think?"

Elena pushed her glasses on her nose at this time, and said calmly: “The problem with the defense system is not big, but the psychological quality of the army still needs to be improved.

Technical equipment can help them improve their combat effectiveness in battle, but if they encounter psychological challenges, such as long-term combat pressure, they may not be so stable! "

"Elena, what you said makes sense!" Stekar nodded in agreement: "But, can psychological quality be achieved through training alone? What do you think, Leo?"

Leo nodded quickly: "Oh, that's what I was going to say! In fact, the issue of psychological quality, in addition to training, also requires combat experience. You know, real combat, the pressure of facing life and death, cannot be simulated on the training ground.

Therefore, appropriate practical training is the best method.

But, um, when it comes to actual combat, we can't take the initiative to provoke anyone, right? That's unrealistic!"

Sterkar rubbed his chin and glanced at Savile: "Savile, is there any movement in the intelligence department? Is there anything we can practice with?"

Xavier smiled lightly and spoke slowly: "Master Pioneer, there has indeed been some movement from the Terra civilization recently, but it is not large in scale. They are all small interstellar patrol ships, and they seem to be conducting exploration missions in some marginal areas.

As for whether we have a fighting chance, well, I personally think that they are unlikely to take the initiative to provoke us. After all, our Raider Planet is still in the development stage, and Terra probably doesn't take us seriously!"

"You don't take us seriously?" Hearing this, Sterkar frowned slightly: "That makes me feel a little uncomfortable!"

"Haha, Lord Pioneer, don't be anxious. I am also telling the truth. After all, they are the Terra civilization and have the Emperor as their backer. I'm afraid we are not good enough in their eyes!" Xavier spread his hands helplessly.

At this time, Holden couldn't help but interrupt: "So, shouldn't we find some opportunities to show our strength? We can't always let them think that we are easy to bully, right? Besides, our technology and resources are very strong. Although we can't compare with the Terra civilization, we are growing very fast!"

Elena interrupted him calmly: “Holden, the problem is, what we need now is accumulation, not a head-on confrontation with Terra right away.

Although our current technology is advancing rapidly, there is still a gap compared to the level of Terra civilization. We can't be impatient!"

Sterkar sighed: “What Elena said makes sense, we can’t be too hasty, but we can’t fail to make preparations.

You guys, think carefully about what we need to do next. I hope to find a way that allows us to accumulate practical experience without causing too much trouble! "

"This is a bit difficult, Master Pioneer!" Leo scratched his head, looking troubled: "But I will think about it carefully. After all, we can't always stay in the training ground!"

Just at this moment, a mechanical humming sound suddenly came from the sky, and a drone slowly flew in from the window, casting a blue light, and then an information panel appeared in front of Sterkar.

[Task Tips: Main Quest - Advance the Technology Tree of the Raider Planet. Upon completion, you will receive the Terra Civilization Intelligence Package.]

"Here we go again." Sterkar glanced at the task panel and frowned, "Designer No. 009 of Azure Star really likes to give us tasks!"

Leo took a look at the mission content and seemed a little excited: "Wow, the reward this time is not bad, the intelligence package of Terra civilization? This is a good thing! Master Pioneer, this is an opportunity!"

Elena analyzed calmly: “However, it is not easy to advance the technology tree.

Our technology has advanced rapidly, but there are still many bottlenecks, especially in the fields of weapons manufacturing and energy!"

Holden nodded: “Yes, Elena is right, although our resources are abundant, it is indeed difficult to break through the current technological bottleneck, especially because we need more advanced resources to support it.

This also takes time!"

Stekar smiled slightly and said, "As for time, we can buy it.

Now that the mission has come, we must seize the opportunity.

Leo, you are responsible for the adjustments on the military side and try to improve the combat effectiveness and psychological quality of the new recruits as much as possible.

Elena, you have to speed up the progress in the scientific research department. I don't care what method you use, but the technology tree must move forward.

Holden, you need to be more precise in allocating resources, and not waste even a single bit!"

"Understood, Master Pioneer!" Leo, Elena and Holden responded at the same time.

Savile narrowed his eyes at this time: “Master Pioneer, there is something I must remind you of.

The intelligence package of Terra civilization will not be so easy to obtain. The difficulty of the mission may be higher than we imagined!"

The corners of Sterkar's mouth curled up slightly: "I know that the designer of Azure Star No. 009 will never give us easy tasks.

But the more difficult the task, the more it motivates us to become stronger.

Well, let's prepare ourselves, I don't want us to miss any opportunity!"

Just as they started to get busy, the comments in the live broadcast room suddenly surged:
[Holy crap! An intelligence package about Terra Civilization? This reward is simply outrageous!]

[I say, is Sterkar's wave stable? With the intelligence package, maybe we can counter the Terra civilization! ]

[Don't be too happy too soon. The mission of the designer of Azure Star No. 009 is never that simple. Just wait and see. There will definitely be pitfalls! ]

[Hehe, let's wait and see how Sterkar completes the task this time. It feels like a dramatic show! ]

[I guess he will definitely get into big trouble. The information about Terra civilization is not something that can be obtained easily! ]
