Chapter 290 Exploring the Astral Gate and Resolving the Crisis
The warship, struck by the beam of light, shook violently, alarms blaring. Inside the bridge, crew members struggled under the flashing lights, trying to regain control of the vessel. Damage reports poured in: partial power system failures and rapidly depleting shield energy.
Lin Yu was extremely anxious and immediately issued orders through the communication channel: "Medical team, proceed to the damaged warship for rescue immediately! Engineering team, do everything possible to repair the power system! Research team, analyze the energy properties of the light attack and find a solution!" Each team acted swiftly, and the entire fleet entered emergency response mode.
Led by Ellie, the research team worked against the clock to analyze the beam of light emitted from the "Astral Gate." They discovered that this beam contained a special quantum entangled energy, the frequency and fluctuation pattern of which were incompatible with the fleet's existing defense systems, thus causing such severe damage.
Ellie kept her eyes glued to the data on the instruments, pondering a countermeasure. Suddenly, she remembered her previous research on the energy core in the ancient ruins; the quantum control technology involved might be useful. She quickly shared her idea with Lin Yu and suggested using the flagship's energy control device to adjust the quantum frequency of the shield to resist the light attack.
Lin Yu decisively approved the plan. The engineering team quickly modified the flagship's energy regulation device to enable it to work in conjunction with the shield system. After tense operations, the shield's quantum frequency was successfully adjusted. At this moment, the "Astral Gate" once again emitted beams of light, its target aimed directly at the flagship.
Everyone's hearts were in their throats. As the beam struck the flagship's shield, the resulting energy collision illuminated the surrounding space. Fortunately, the adjusted shield successfully withstood the beam attack; although the energy readings fluctuated, they remained within a safe range.
"Success!" A cheer erupted in the command room. Lin Yu, however, remained vigilant. He knew this was only a temporary relief; more effort was needed to truly explore the "Gateway to the Stars."
After a brief rest for the fleet, Lin Yu decided to send a reconnaissance ship closer to the "Astral Gate" to gather further information. The reconnaissance ship cautiously approached the gate, with all its detection equipment operating at full capacity. When the ship got close enough, the runes around the "Astral Gate" suddenly flickered, and a powerful gravitational field began to form, attempting to pull the reconnaissance ship into it.
The pilots frantically maneuvered the spaceship, trying to break free from the gravitational pull, but the spaceship was only being pulled closer and closer. Seeing this, Lin Yu immediately ordered the fleet to activate its traction beams to help the reconnaissance ship escape its predicament. With the combined efforts of the fleet, the reconnaissance ship finally broke free of the gravitational field and returned safely.
Although the reconnaissance mission encountered setbacks, crucial information was gathered. Through analysis of the reconnaissance data, Ellie and her research team discovered a connection between the runes surrounding the "Astral Gate" and the writing of an ancient civilization. They revisited the materials they had previously collected from the ruins, and after arduous deciphering, finally found a way to break the gravitational field.
It turned out that these runes were an ancient energy control code; by activating the runes in a specific order, the gravitational field could be shut down. Lin Yu selected an elite landing team, equipped with energy activation devices, and they traveled to the "Gateway to the Stars" in small landing craft.
Under the fleet's cover, the landing team successfully reached the vicinity of the "Astral Gate." Following the code provided by Ellie, they carefully activated the runes. As the runes lit up one by one, the gravitational field gradually weakened and eventually disappeared.
After successfully deactivating the gravitational field, the fleet slowly approached the "Astral Gate." Lin Yu took a deep breath and gave the order to enter the "Astral Gate." The flagship was the first to enter the gate, followed by the other warships.
When the fleet entered the "Astral Gate," the sight before them stunned everyone. Beyond the gate lay a vast cosmic space, filled with countless strange celestial bodies and mysterious structures. The energy fluctuations here were exceptionally complex, yet contained a harmonious order.
However, before they could even explore further, a group of shimmering creatures suddenly appeared in the distance. These creatures were enormous, radiating powerful energy, and were rapidly approaching the fleet. Lin Yu immediately ordered the fleet to prepare for battle. How would the fleet respond to these unknown and powerful beings? What secrets and dangers does the world behind the "Star Gate" still hold?
