Chapter 427 Reversing the Battle and Mysterious Trails
Ellie swiftly translated her analysis into an action plan, directing technicians to adjust the warship's energy emission devices to concentrate and focus the special particles in the mist. Meanwhile, Lin Yu skillfully maneuvered the flagship to evade the mechanical creatures' attacks, simultaneously using the communication channel to direct other warships to distract them.
"Attention all warships! Keep moving! Don't let the mechanical creature lock onto the target!" Lin Yu's voice was firm and powerful, clearly conveying its message to every team member through the communication channel. The warships moved like agile fish through the fog, constantly shifting positions, while beams of energy shot towards the mechanical creature from different directions, interfering with its movements.
The mechanical creatures were thrown into disarray by this sudden tactic; their massive mechanical arms flailing wildly through the mist, unable to catch the agile warship. Just then, Ellie shouted, "Energy launcher ready!"
Lin Yu immediately ordered, "Fire! Aim at the core of the mechanical creature!" A dazzling beam of light shot out from the flagship, carrying special particles from the mist, striking the mechanical creature like a meteor. Instantly, intense electric currents crackled across the mechanical creature's body, its movements became sluggish and chaotic, and its previously glowing red eyes dimmed.
"Success! Keep attacking and destroy it completely!" Lin Yu shouted excitedly. The fleet seized the opportunity and concentrated its firepower on the mechanical creature for a final assault. Energy beams rained down on the mechanical creature, and with a violent explosion, its body began to disintegrate, eventually turning into countless fragments that dissipated into the mist.
"We won!" Cheers erupted from the fleet as the crew members embraced each other excitedly, celebrating their hard-won victory. Lin Yu took a deep breath. Although they had successfully defeated the mechanical creatures, he knew this was just a small episode in their exploration, and many more unknown challenges awaited them ahead.
"Continue forward and search for clues to the second 'Heart of Order'," Lin Yu ordered, and the fleet once again moved slowly through the fog. As they ventured deeper into the fog, the scanning equipment finally detected some faint signal fluctuations, which were similar to the signals they had detected near the first 'Heart of Order'.
“Lin Yu, these signal fluctuations are very likely related to the second ‘Heart of Order’,” Ellie said, pointing to the data on the screen. A glimmer of hope flashed in Lin Yu’s eyes: “Increase the scanning range and pinpoint the source of the signal.”
After much effort, the fleet finally pinpointed the source of the signal. Deep within the mist lay a planet shrouded in light, from which the signal was emanating. As the fleet approached the planet, they discovered a strange halo encircling it, within which various mysterious symbols and patterns flickered.
“This halo looks very unusual; it seems to be hiding some kind of secret,” Lin Yu said. He ordered the fleet to keep their distance and conduct a detailed scan of the halo. As the scan progressed, they discovered that the symbols and patterns were actually an ancient script, recording information about the “Heart of Order.”
"These inscriptions state that the second 'Heart of Order' is sealed deep within the core of this planet, protected by a powerful guardian force. Only through a specific ritual can the seal be broken and the 'Heart of Order' obtained," Ellie explained to Lin Yu after deciphering the inscription.
Lin Yu nodded slightly: "It seems we've found a crucial clue, but what exactly is this protective power and the specific ritual?" Just as they were pondering this, several beams of light suddenly shot out from the planet, flying towards the fleet. As the light drew closer, everyone discovered that it was a group of mysterious creatures dressed in white robes, hovering in the air, their eyes revealing majesty and mystery.
"Outsiders, you have trespassed into this sacred land! Leave at once!" the leading mysterious creature declared, its voice booming like a bell, echoing throughout the universe. Lin Yu quickly explained, "We meant no offense. We have only come to find the 'Heart of Order.' The universe is facing a great crisis, and only by gathering three 'Hearts of Order' can all be saved."
Upon hearing the words "Heart of Order" and "Cosmic Crisis," the mysterious creatures' expressions subtly changed. They exchanged glances, seemingly engaging in some silent communication. At this crucial moment, how will the mysterious creatures respond to Lin Yu's request? And will the fleet be able to successfully enter the planet and find the second "Heart of Order"?
