Chapter 424 Fierce Battle and Sudden Turning Point
Energy beams crisscrossed the dark universe, explosions deafening, as the battle between the fleet and the planetary defense system intensified. Lin Yu stared intently at the screen, his hands deftly maneuvering the warship to evade the enemy's dense attacks. "Hard left! Avoid that powerful beam!" he shouted, his voice clear and forceful over the communication channel.
The warship swiftly turned, a thick beam of energy grazing its hull, the powerful shockwave causing the ship to shake violently. "Shield energy down to 60%!" the shield operator's voice was tense. Lin Yu frowned, knowing that if this continued, the fleet's situation would become increasingly difficult.
"Concentrate fire on the energy shield nodes!" Lin Yu decisively ordered. The team responded swiftly, the warship's weapon systems operating at full capacity, beams of energy precisely targeting the planetary shield nodes. Under the fleet's fierce attack, the shield's light began to flicker, and some cracks appeared.
However, the enemy seemed to have detected the fleet's intentions, and their defenses intensified. Small combat aircraft rose from the planet's surface, swarming towards the fleet like bees. These aircraft were extremely fast, weaving nimbly between the warships and constantly launching small missiles, causing considerable trouble for the fleet.
"Watch out for these small aircraft! Don't let them get close to the warships!" Lin Yu shouted. The team members adjusted their attack targets, and in an instant, flames soared and explosions raged around the fleet. However, there were simply too many aircraft, and despite the team's valiant resistance, several managed to break through the defenses and approach the flagship.
"Activate the close-in weapon system!" As soon as Lin Yu finished speaking, the flagship's close-in weapon system activated instantly, a dense barrage destroying any approaching aircraft. But at the same time, the planet's large defensive weapons launched another attack, a massive energy pulse hurtling towards the fleet.
"Attention all ships, activate emergency evasive maneuvers!" Lin Yu's voice carried a hint of anxiety. The warships made an emergency turn, energy pulses grazing the edge of the fleet, the powerful impact sending several ships veering off course.
Just as the situation reached a stalemate, Ellie, amidst the tense battle, suddenly noticed a crucial detail. "Lin Yu, the energy frequencies of these defensive weapons seem to follow a certain pattern, fluctuating briefly every so often." She quickly operated the equipment, displaying the analysis data on the screen.
Lin Yu's eyes lit up: "This might be our breakthrough! Listen up, everyone, when the energy frequency fluctuates, concentrate all your firepower and attack the same spot on the energy shield with all your might!" The team members quickly prepared, their eyes fixed on the changes in the energy frequency on the screen.
Finally, the energy frequency fluctuated. "Fire!" Lin Yu shouted. All the fleet's weapons launched their attacks simultaneously, a powerful energy beam shooting towards the same spot on the energy shield. Under the powerful firepower, the cracks on the energy shield rapidly widened, and finally, with a "bang," a large hole was torn in the shield.
"Success!" Cheers erupted from the fleet. But Lin Yu remained vigilant; he knew this was only the first step. "Continue forward, stay alert, and be prepared for new challenges."
The fleet passed through the torn shield and flew towards the planet's surface. As they approached, they discovered a massive complex of metal buildings below, shimmering with strange lights, clearly indicating a highly advanced technological civilization.
However, before the fleet could land, a group of creatures dressed in strange equipment flew out of the building and surrounded the fleet. These creatures held energy weapons and their eyes were full of vigilance. "Who are you? Why have you trespassed into our territory?" one of the creatures questioned through a communicator.
Lin Yu quickly responded, "We are explorers from the universe, here in search of the 'Heart of Order.' We mean no harm, we simply hope to receive your help." Upon hearing "Heart of Order," the other party visibly paused, a complex emotion flashing in their eyes.
At this crucial moment, how will the other party respond to Lin Yu's request? And do they really know the whereabouts of the "Heart of Order"?
