Chapter 399 Mysterious Fluctuations and Unknown Planet
Like a flock of silver birds, the fleet sped through the vast universe toward the source of the mysterious energy fluctuations. Along the way, Lin Yu and his team carefully studied the limited intelligence, trying to find a clue from the faint energy signal. Ellie stared intently at the fluctuating data on the screen, her brow furrowed: "Lin Yu, this energy fluctuation is very peculiar. It doesn't seem to be naturally occurring, and it's also different from the energy characteristics of any civilization we've encountered before."
Lin Yu nodded slightly, his gaze profound: "Whatever it is, we must be careful. Strengthen the fleet's vigilance and be prepared to deal with any emergencies." As the fleet gradually approached the target area, the surrounding environment became increasingly eerie. The already sparse stars became even scarcer, and countless eyes seemed to be hidden in the darkness, watching their every move.
Suddenly, a massive planet appeared ahead of the fleet. This planet was shrouded in a thick purple mist, obscuring its surface, but the mysterious energy fluctuations emanated from its interior. "This planet is unusual. Approach cautiously," Lin Yu ordered, and the warships slowly steered towards the planet.
As the fleet entered the planet's gravitational pull, a powerful gravitational force swept over them, severely impacting the warships' navigation. "Activate the gravity compensation device and maintain stability," Lin Yu shouted. The crew quickly operated the equipment, and the warships struggled forward under the pull of gravity.
Just as the fleet approached the planet's atmosphere, a group of unidentified flying objects suddenly emerged from the planet's surface and hurtled towards the fleet at high speed. These flying objects were small in size and extremely fast, reaching the fleet in an instant. "Enemy attack! Prepare for battle!" Lin Yu shouted, and the fleet quickly went into combat mode. Weapon systems activated instantly, and beams of energy shot towards the unidentified flying objects.
However, these unidentified flying objects were extremely agile. They easily evaded the fleet's attacks, then circled the warship at high speed, continuously firing strange energy beams. The warship's shields flickered under the attack of the energy beams, and the energy readings dropped rapidly.
“These guys’ attacks are troublesome. Let’s find out their attack patterns!” Lin Yu said. Ellie quickly operated the equipment, analyzing the attack patterns of the unidentified flying objects. After some tense analysis, she finally made a discovery: “Lin Yu, these flying objects seem to attack at a certain frequency. We can try adjusting the frequency of the shield to counterattack.”
Upon hearing this, Lin Yu immediately ordered, "Adjust the shield frequency according to Ellie's analysis!" As the shield frequency was adjusted, the attack effectiveness of the unidentified flying objects significantly decreased. The fleet seized the opportunity to launch a counterattack, concentrating its firepower on the objects. Under the powerful barrage, some unidentified flying objects were successfully destroyed, while the remainder quickly fled, disappearing into the purple mist.
Although they had temporarily repelled the unidentified flying object, Lin Yu knew this was just the beginning. They continued their advance towards the planet's surface, finally breaking through the thick purple fog and seeing the planet's true face. The planet's surface was covered with enormous mountains and bottomless canyons, and between the mountains, some strange structures shimmered with mysterious light.
"These buildings look ancient, as if they're hiding some secret," Lin Yu said. The fleet slowly landed on a flat open space. Lin Yu led his team off the warship and towards the nearest building. As they approached, they found the building's doors tightly shut, covered with strange symbols and patterns.
Ellie took out her detection equipment, trying to decipher the meaning of the symbols. After some effort, she finally made a breakthrough: "Lin Yu, these symbols seem to be an ancient script, recording the history of this planet. It is said that this place was once home to a highly advanced civilization, but a huge catastrophe occurred later, and this civilization disappeared."
Lin Yu's heart skipped a beat: "Could that mysterious energy fluctuation be related to this vanished civilization?" Just then, the building's door slowly swayed, as if about to open. What secrets lay hidden behind that door? What challenges awaited Lin Yu and his team?
