Chapter 296 Once a real fight breaks out, it will be disadvantageous to us!

At this moment, Leo's communication was connected again, and Leo's figure appeared on the screen, his expression looked a little nervous: "Master Pioneer, when we intercepted the Terra Civilization Fleet just now, although our stealth warships did not reveal their position, the patrol ships responded quickly, and it seems that their vigilance has been improved a lot.

I'm afraid that after this, they'll send more fleets to explore the ruins!"

Sterkar frowned slightly, obviously realizing the seriousness of the problem: "You are right, the Terra civilization cannot give up so easily.

Now that we've stopped them, they're bound to get suspicious.

Next we must make greater defensive preparations and not let them get close to the ruins!"

Leo nodded: "I have ordered the warships to remain on high alert. If the Terra civilization makes any further moves, we will respond immediately.

But the problem is, if the main fleet of the Terran civilization intervenes, it may be difficult to fully cope with these current stealth warships alone!"

Sterkar's expression became more serious, and he obviously realized this: "You are right, these invisible warships alone are indeed not enough to deal with their main fleet.

But we haven't exposed too much yet. Once a real fight breaks out, it will be disadvantageous to us!"

Leo sighed: "Indeed, they are too strong to fight head-on!"

Sterkar thought for a moment, then said: "Well, you continue to keep the invisible fleet on alert, but don't act rashly.

If the Terra civilization sends out more fleets, test their movements before making a decision.

Our goal is not to confront them head-on, but to ensure that the ruins are not discovered by them!"

"I understand, Master Pioneer!" Leo nodded and ended the communication.

Stekar stood up, walked to the window of the command center, and looked at the vast starry sky outside.

The power of Terra civilization is extremely strong, and the only thing he can rely on now is the breakthrough of ancient technology.

This is also his chance to turn the tables.

At this moment, Elena's communication was suddenly connected, and her voice was filled with a hint of uncontrollable excitement: "Master Pioneer, there has been a major breakthrough in the analysis of ancient technology data! Although the structure of the energy core is complex, we have found a preliminary decoding method and can apply the energy conversion principle to our existing energy system!"

Sterkar's eyes lit up and he turned around immediately: "Tell me specifically, how much improvement can it bring?"

Elena pushed her glasses up, her voice a little confident: "According to preliminary simulation calculations, the conversion efficiency of the energy core can increase our existing battleship energy system by at least 30%.

This means that under the same energy consumption, our warships can continue to fight for a much longer time, and the energy supply of the weapon system will be more stable! "

"More than 30%?" A hint of joy flashed in Sterkar's eyes, and he nodded: "This is a huge breakthrough for our fleet, especially in a protracted war, which will bring us a huge advantage!"

Elena continued, “Moreover, we also found some technological fragments related to ancient weapon systems.

Although it is not yet fully decipherable, we believe that this data can provide a very important reference for future weapons development!"

Sterkar smiled with satisfaction: "Very good, keep moving forward, especially the application of the energy core.

We must transform this technology into actual combat power as soon as possible!"

Elena nodded and said, “We have arranged for the team to go all out and try to complete the technology transformation as soon as possible.

Please rest assured! "

"I believe you!" Stekar nodded and ended the call.

He returned to the center of the command center, feeling a little more relaxed.

Although the threat of Terra civilization still exists, the breakthroughs in ancient technology undoubtedly give him more hope.

The application of energy core technology will be an important step in the rise of the Raider Planet.

At this time, Zhizi reminded again: "Master Pioneer, according to the latest intelligence, the main force of the Terra civilization fleet has not made much movement, but the intensity of border patrols has increased.

We speculate that they may have noticed the anomaly in the ruins area!"

Stekar frowned slightly. Although there was no sign of a direct conflict for the time being, this invisible pressure was always hanging over his head.

He must speed up his actions and thoroughly consolidate the combat effectiveness of the Conqueror Planet before the Terra civilization really makes a move.

He slowly sat back in his chair and glanced across the holographic screen again: "Tomoko, pull up the current overall combat capability assessment report of the Raider Planet for me. I need a detailed analysis to see how long we can last in the next possible confrontation!"

Sophon quickly projected a complex combat capability assessment report onto the holographic screen, with all the data clearly visible.

Stekar looked at it carefully, weighing various factors in his mind.

Although the Raider Planet is improving rapidly, it still has a long way to go before it can truly compete with the Terra civilization.

At the same time, the live broadcast room's barrage of comments emerged again:
[Wow, the energy core technology has broken through! This time, Stekar is going to be successful! ]

[More than 30% increase in energy, this is a qualitative leap for interstellar battleships! ]

[Sure enough, the copy design of the designer of Azure Star No. 009 is too amazing. It has both technological breakthroughs and a sense of crisis. It really makes people unable to stop! ]

[Hahaha, I feel like Sterkar is going to be stable this time. If the energy core technology can be successfully applied, the combat effectiveness of the Raider Planet will be greatly improved! ]

[But don't be too happy too soon, the Terra Civilization will definitely not sit idly by, their next actions will definitely be more intense! ]

[I just like watching this kind of tense confrontation, with both technological breakthroughs and interstellar struggles, it's so exciting! ]

Stekar looked at the comments and smiled softly.

Although he knew that players were full of expectations for this technological breakthrough, he remained clear-headed.

He knew very well that the power of Terra civilization was far more than what it seemed.

Even though they have achieved a phased victory now, there are still countless challenges waiting for them.

Sterkar took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Sophon, continue to closely monitor the actions of Terra civilization. We cannot afford to make any mistakes and must remain vigilant at all times!"

Tomoko responded: "Understood, I will strengthen monitoring of the border and ensure that any abnormal situation is reported in a timely manner!"

Stekar nodded, then looked at the combat effectiveness assessment report on the holographic screen.

The future situation is complex and unpredictable, but he is prepared for the worst.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, another period of time has passed.

“Master Pioneer, the latest resource report has come out. Our mineral extraction rate has increased by about 15%, but it should be noted that energy consumption has also increased by 7%.

I think we should consider whether we should make some optimization in the energy supply area! "This is Holden, who is standing at the conference table with a pile of data. Although his tone is still calm as usual, it can be seen from his eyes that he is still a little anxious.

Hearing this, Stekar nodded slightly.

He was fiddling with a small holographic projection device in his hand, which showed the entire map of the Raiders planet and some projects under construction.

Sterkar put down the device in his hand, waved his hand and said, “The energy supply problem is not something that can be solved in a day or two, I know that.

But to be honest, this 15% improvement is not very obvious.

Holden, do you think it is possible to adjust it so that the increase in mineral mining is higher? Or can we have other more efficient methods?"

Holden frowned and waved his hand, as if responding to some invisible pressure: "Master Pioneer, I know you are very concerned about this, but this increase is already the limit of current technology, otherwise I would not ask you to pay more attention to the energy consumption problem.

The mineral aspect has already been optimized and it is unlikely to be significantly improved.

As for a more efficient method, ah, for this, we may have to seek help from scientific research!"

"Oh, I knew that this matter would eventually fall on Elena's head!" Stekar sighed. Although he said it lightly, his brows were slightly frowned, and it was obvious that he was a little helpless about this issue.

Elena was sitting at the other end of the table. When she heard them mention her name, she slowly raised her head. The corners of her mouth slightly raised, and she looked at Sterkar with a smile: "You knew that this matter would come to me, didn't you? It's useless to say anything now!" She shrugged, then tapped the table with her fingers: "To be honest, I have indeed studied the mineral problem, but the technology we have at present can basically achieve the limit that Holden said.

To go further, some kind of breakthrough technology may be needed!"

Sterkar frowned. "Breakthrough in technology? What kind of breakthrough? Our scientific research team is working hard on the development. Don't tell me there is no way!"

The corners of Elena’s mouth twitched slightly, and she waved her hand: “Master Pioneer, I certainly won’t say there is no way, but there is currently no ready-made technical solution, and it takes time and research resources.

Or, you can also complete the dungeon mission to see if you can get some black technology!" Her tone seemed very casual, as if she was teasing, but it was indeed the truth.

Leo stood aside, silent for a long time, then suddenly interrupted and said, "Speaking of missions, sir, when will the mission to investigate the Terra civilization that you mentioned last time start? According to the information I got from the intelligence department, there seems to be some movement from the Terra civilization recently. Should we make some preparations in advance?"

Xavier also came out from the corner at this time, his face serious: “Leo is right.

Intelligence shows that the Terran civilization's fleet has been quite active recently, and my people are also trying to find out more about it. But, you know, this civilization's technological level and anti-detection methods are too strong, and the information we have now is very limited, so we may need some more advanced methods!"

Stekar tapped his fingers on the table a few times, as if he was thinking about something.

Suddenly, he raised his head and looked at Elena: "Can you give me a time point, how long it will take to solve these technical problems?"

Elena shrugged: "The only promise I can give is that we are working hard. Of course, if you can get some black technology samples, things will be faster!"

At this moment, Sterkar's sophon suddenly flashed, and a mechanized voice came: "Master Pioneer, the designer of Azure Star No. 009 has issued a new mission. The mission content is to explore the recent technological trends of Terra civilization. After completing the mission, you will obtain new energy conversion technology!"

Tomoko's voice was cold and emotionless, but its presence instantly quieted the entire conference room.

Sterkar snorted with a slightly amused expression, “It just so happens that this mission has come, so you don’t have to worry about it.

Elena, Holden, don't worry, I'll go and complete the task, and I'll be able to solve the problem when I come back!"

Elena shook her head helplessly, but didn't say much: "Then you better be careful, the technology of Terra civilization is not something we can easily deal with!"

Holden also sighed and waved his hand: "Hey, we will continue to deal with things here, you go, safety first, don't joke with the hope of our planet!"

Leo clenched his fists and looked at Sterkar: "Sir, I am at your disposal at any time. I am ready to go!"

At this time, the live broadcast room's barrage also became lively:
[Wow, the mission of Terra Civilization has arrived! This is a big job! ]

[I knew the dungeon designer wouldn't make the mission too easy. Terra Civilization is the Emperor's territory!]

[Stekar must be careful this time, don't let us miss the ending by accident! ]

[The missions of the dungeon designer are always interesting. I am looking forward to the rewards of this mission. It won’t be too easy, right? ]

[Black technology new energy conversion technology? This sounds amazing! I wish I could get it.]

[We have all seen how advanced the technology of Terran civilization is. This mission will not be easy! ]

Sterkar glanced at the mission briefing projected by Sophon and sneered: "Leo, prepare the fleet, target - the border of Terra civilization, we have to take a good look at what they are hiding!"

Leo immediately stood up straight, a resolute expression on his face, and a hint of urgency in his tone: “Sir, I will arrange the fleet immediately.

This time, preparations must be meticulous, and both personnel and equipment must be foolproof.

The power of Terran civilization is no joke, be careful."

"Stop talking nonsense, Leo, I trust you to do the job.

We don't plan to engage in direct fire on this mission. The most important thing is to collect intelligence!" Sterkar waved his hand. Although his tone was relaxed, his eyes revealed a hint of vigilance.

He understood the power of the Terra civilization. It was a powerful force under the rule of the Emperor. Just sending out a fleet would make other civilizations tremble in fear.

Leo nodded and replied, “Yes, sir.

I'll be ready right away."
