Chapter 295: Energy Core? Can We Use It?

"According to preliminary detection, this may be a technological research station of an ancient civilization!" There was a hint of excitement in Xavier's voice, but he remained calm.

Sterkar nodded: "Very good, start the excavation immediately, and give priority to searching for technology modules related to weapon systems or energy technologies.

This is what we need most right now!"

Savile immediately ordered his men to start acting separately. Several exploration team members quickly dispersed and began to conduct a detailed exploration of the ruins with various scanning equipment.

A few minutes later, Savile reported again: "Master Pioneer, we found a device with extremely strong energy response deep in the ruins. According to preliminary judgment, this may be the energy core of an ancient civilization!"

When Sterkar heard this, his eyebrows slightly raised: "Energy core? Can it be used by us?"

"It's not clear yet!" Savile paused, then continued: "We need to further analyze the structure and principle of the device. If successful, we may be able to use this energy core to improve the energy system of our battleship!"

Sterkar nodded: "Very good, hurry up and analyze it and find a solution as soon as possible.

If we can use this thing, it will be a huge breakthrough!"

"Understood!" Savile responded, then turned around and led the team to continue the exploration.

However, at this moment, Zhizi's voice suddenly became urgent: "Master Pioneer, the patrol fleet of Terra civilization is accelerating towards the ruins and is expected to arrive in fifteen minutes!"

Sterkar's face darkened slightly, and he immediately ordered: "Leo, put the invisible warship into a first-level combat readiness state. If the Terra civilization's fleet crosses the cordon, stop it immediately!"

Leo responded through the communication: "Understood, the invisible battleship is ready, we will intercept it at the first time!"

Sterkar stared at the screen, and the situation was obviously becoming increasingly tense.

The technology in the ancient ruins may be the key to this interstellar confrontation, and the Terra civilization is obviously not afraid of it.
Missed this opportunity.

The comments in the live broadcast room were already exploding:

[The patrol ship of Terra Civilization has really arrived! Now it’s time to watch the fun! ]

[Shit, this is really hanging in the balance. Can Sterkar get the ancient technology first? ]

[Fifteen minutes! Just fifteen minutes! I’m so nervous that my palms are sweating!]

[The mission designed by Designer No. 009 of Azure Star is too intense this time. It feels like a big battle will break out at any time! ]

[Can Sterkar's team obtain the technology within fifteen minutes? I feel like this mission is going to be difficult! ]

[Anyway, this dungeon is getting more and more exciting! ]

Sterkar's eyes were still fixed on the holographic projection screen, his expression calm, but his mind was already rapidly calculating every next step.

Fifteen minutes is almost a moment in an interstellar battle.

Whether it is Xavier's excavation progress or Leo's interception mission, there is no room for error.

He pondered for a moment, then quickly issued an order: "Sophon, maintain full surveillance of the Terran civilization patrol ship, and do not miss any subtle movements.

Have Leo pay close attention and be prepared for an exchange of fire at any time!"

Tomoko responded immediately: "Understood, surveillance has been strengthened.

The Terran Civilization fleet is approaching at an accelerated speed, but has not yet entered the cordon range!"

Sterkar nodded, then called up Savile's communication and contacted the intelligence minister again: "Saville, the situation is urgent, the patrol ships of the Terra civilization are approaching at an accelerated speed.

How much time do you have left to finish it?"

Xavier’s image immediately appeared on the holographic screen, his expression slightly solemn, but still calm: “Master Pioneer, we are doing our best to extract the technological data of this energy core.

We are now two-thirds done, but will need another ten minutes to complete all the analysis and extractions!"

Sterkar frowned slightly. "Ten minutes? The Terran fleet will arrive in fifteen minutes. You must handle it before then!"

Savile pursed his lips, a hint of nervousness flashed in his eyes: “I understand, I have asked the team members to speed up the progress.

However, even if we can extract the data within ten minutes, disassembly of the energy core may take more time.

We are trying to speed it up, but the structure of this thing is much more complicated than we expected, so we can’t operate rashly! "

Sterkar was silent for a moment after hearing this, and then he said in a deep voice: “Then extract the technological data first, and the energy core can be processed later.

If the situation is urgent, retreat immediately and don't take risks! "

"Understood!" Xavier nodded immediately and turned around to continue directing his team members to speed up the progress.

After shutting off Xavier's communication, Sterkar took a deep breath, his eyes still fixed on the Terra civilization fleet on the screen.

Although the current fleet of the Terra civilization is not large, he is well aware that this patrol ship is just an outpost and there may be greater threats hidden behind it.

If they were to discover the movements of the attacker planet, the consequences would be disastrous.

At this time, Leo’s communication was connected, and there was a hint of tension in his voice: “Master Pioneer, we have entered the first level combat readiness state, and the invisible warship is patrolling near the cordon.

If the Terran fleet comes any closer, we will intercept it immediately!"

Stekar nodded: "Very good, remember, try to avoid direct fire, but once they cross the line, never let them pass!"

Leo responded in a deep voice: "Understood, I will personally command this operation to ensure that everything goes well!"

At this moment, Zhizi's voice sounded again: "Master Pioneer, the patrol ships of the Terra civilization have entered the edge of our cordon, less than ten light years away from the ruins area.

According to their speed, they will be completely within our warning range within five minutes!"

Stekar's eyes were stern, and a hint of coldness flashed across his gaze: "Leo, prepare for action!"

Leo's voice immediately became tense and firm: "Yes, Master Pioneer!"

At the same time, progress on Savile's side continued.

On the holographic screen, Xavier's team members were operating various instruments at their best, trying to speed up the extraction of technological data from the energy core.

Deep in the ruins, the huge and complex energy core still flickers with a faint blue light, emitting a mysterious power, as if silently telling the glory of ancient civilization.

"Master Pioneer, we have completed 90% of the data extraction, and we expect to complete all the extraction work in two minutes!" There was a hint of nervousness in Xavier's voice, but more of it was professional calmness.

Sterkar nodded: "Very good, keep working hard, the Terra civilization fleet will arrive in five minutes.

You must evacuate before they arrive!"

Xavier immediately responded: "Understood, we are ready to retreat immediately once the mission is completed!" Time passed by minute by minute, and a tense atmosphere enveloped the entire command center.

Sterkar's eyes never left the holographic projection screen. The Terra civilization's fleet was getting closer and closer, and the invisible warships were constantly adjusting their positions, ready to take action at any time.

"Data extraction completed!" Savile's voice suddenly came, with a hint of suppressed excitement: "We have successfully extracted the technological data of the energy core and are in the final packaging.

Prepare to evacuate!"

A trace of relief flashed in Sterkar's eyes, but he remained calm: "Very good, evacuate immediately and ensure the safety of the scientific and technological data.

The energy core can be dealt with later. The most important thing now is to avoid being discovered by the Terran civilization!"

Savile nodded and quickly directed his team members to evacuate in an orderly manner.

The equipment deep in the ruins has been shut down, but the energy core is still flickering with a faint light, as if waiting for the next awakening.

However, just as Savile's team was about to evacuate the ruins, Sophon's voice rang out again in a hurry: "Master Pioneer, the Terran civilization's fleet suddenly accelerated, and they will enter the ruins area within three minutes!"

Stekar stood up suddenly, with a cold light in his eyes: "Leo, stop them!"

"Got it!" Leo's voice was a little nervous, and then the invisible warship on the screen responded quickly, silently emerging from the edge of the cordon and blocking the front of the Terra civilization patrol ship.

The patrol ships of the Terra civilization apparently also noticed the presence of the invader planet fleet. The fleet immediately slowed down, the distance between each other gradually shortened, and the situation became explosive.

Inside the command center, operators' fingers were moving rapidly on the keyboards, red warning signals were constantly flashing on the radar screens, and the atmosphere was extremely tense.

"Master Pioneer, the Terran civilization's fleet is trying to bypass our warships. Apparently they are aware that we are guarding this area!" Tomoko's voice was calm, but also revealed a hint of nervousness.

Stekar smiled coldly: "Want to bypass us? It's not that easy.

Leo, stop them, and give warnings if necessary!"

Leo responded quickly, "Understood! We will issue a warning and open fire if necessary!"

At this moment, Leo's stealth warship sent a strong energy signal to the patrol ship of the Terra civilization, apparently warning them not to come closer.

The Terra civilization fleet paused for a moment, then began to adjust its course, but they still did not retreat completely and were obviously still trying to approach the ruins area.

Sterkar's eyes were fixed on the screen, his mind racing.

At this moment, any wrong decision could lead to a full-scale interstellar conflict, but he could never let the Terran civilization enter this ruin.

"Leo, warn them again. If they don't listen, open fire immediately and force them back!" Stekar's voice was filled with unquestionable majesty.

Leo responded in a deep voice: "Understood!"

The invisible warship sent out an energy warning signal again, this time it was even stronger.

The patrol fleet of the Terra civilization seemed to have finally realized the danger before them. After a brief pause, the fleet slowly turned around and began to evacuate the ruins area.

"They retreated!" There was a hint of relief in Tomoko's voice.

Sterkar's expression remained serious: "Continue monitoring and make sure they stay away from this area completely!"

A few minutes later, the patrol ship of the Terra civilization completely disappeared from the radar range, and the stealth warship returned to the outside of the cordon.

Stekar finally breathed a sigh of relief and gently sat back in his seat: "Leo, well done!"

There was a hint of laughter in Leo's voice: "Master Pioneer, we have successfully intercepted them this time, but they will definitely be suspicious!"

Sterkar nodded: "I am suspicious, but at least we got what we wanted this time. The data of the energy core is enough.
To provide us with great technical support!"

Savile's communication was connected again: "Master Pioneer, we have successfully evacuated the ruins, and the scientific and technological data are safe.

Next, we will conduct further analysis and transform the data into practical technological applications as soon as possible! ”

Sterkar nodded with satisfaction: “Very good, the next task is left to you.

Remember, any piece of data could be the key to our fight against Terra civilization!"

"Understood, I'll do my best!" Savile responded firmly.

As the communication ended, a hint of deep thought flashed in Sterkar's eyes.

Although this operation was temporarily successful, he knew that the Terra civilization would never let go of this area easily.

Next, they must be extra careful to ensure that the other party does not discover any further movements.

The barrage in the live broadcast room has exploded at this time:

[Oh my god! Sterkar was in such a dangerous situation this time! They almost got into a fight!]

[Oh my god! This situation is really exciting. A war could break out at any time!]

[It is indeed the work of the designer of Azure Star No. 009. Every step is thrilling! ]

[Stekar's operation was very stable. He successfully intercepted the patrol ship of the Terra civilization and obtained the technological data! ]

[Hahaha, Sterkar is going to be very successful. The core data of ancient technology will definitely greatly improve the technology of the Conqueror Planet! ]

[I said, Sterkar is indeed a top player. He can handle this situation so calmly. He is so strong! ]

Stekar looked at the barrage, smiled softly, and had already started to think about his next move.

Stekar sat quietly in the command center, his eyes still fixed on the holographic screen. Although the crisis just now was temporarily resolved, he knew that the patrol ships of the Terra civilization would never give up this area easily.

He needs to seize this precious window of opportunity and fully promote the research and transformation of ancient technology.

"Smart Son!" Sterkar said solemnly, "Immediately sort out the ancient technology data that has just been extracted and hand it over to Elena's research team, giving priority to studying the technical applications of the energy core.

I need a detailed research report, and it would be best if I could get a feasible application solution in the shortest possible time!"

Tomoko’s voice was calm and quick: “The data has been sorted and is being sent to the research team.

Director Elena has received the data and she will analyze it as soon as possible! "

Stekar nodded with satisfaction and felt a little relieved.

He knew very well that technological breakthroughs were crucial at the moment. If the energy core technology of the ancient civilization could be applied to the planet's warships and defense systems, the overall combat capability of the attacker planet would have a qualitative leap.
