Chapter 516: Supporting Companions and the Mystery of the Ruins
Lin Yu led his team to quickly board the warship and sped off towards Xavier's location. The warship raced through the vast universe, stars streaking across the sky like shooting stars. Lin Yu sat in the cockpit, his brow furrowed, his mind racing as he pondered the predicament Xavier had described, trying to devise a countermeasure in advance.
After a long voyage, they finally arrived at Xavier's star system. This was a system shrouded in thick nebulae, the pervasive fog interfering with the warship's sensors and navigation systems. Lin Yu carefully piloted the warship, navigating through the nebulae, diligently searching for Xavier's trail.
"Captain, the signal interference is too severe; it's very difficult to pinpoint the Xavier's location," the communications officer said anxiously. Lin Yu took a deep breath and calmly said, "Activate manual scanning, expand the search area, and search slowly. We'll definitely find them."
Just as the team members were searching with all their might, the warship suddenly began to shake violently. Lin Yu looked at the monitoring screen and saw a group of small flying creatures swarming towards the warship. These creatures resembled bats, emitting an eerie blue light. When their wings flapped, they generated powerful energy fluctuations that interfered with the warship's operation.
"Activate the defense system and prepare for a counterattack!" Lin Yu decisively ordered. The warship's defensive weapons activated rapidly, and beams of laser light shot towards the flying creatures. However, these creatures were extremely agile, easily dodging the attacks and continuing to approach the warship, ramming their bodies against the warship's shields.
During the fierce battle, Lin Yu discovered that these flying creatures seemed highly sensitive to a specific frequency of sound waves. He immediately ordered his team to adjust their weapons and emit sound waves of that frequency. Sure enough, upon hearing the sound waves, the flying creatures panicked, disrupting their attack rhythm. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lin Yu piloted the warship to break through the encirclement.
After shaking off the flying creatures, they finally located Xavier's warship near an asteroid belt. At this moment, Xavier's warship was enveloped by a massive energy shield, its surface flashing with defensive runes. Xavier's weapon attacks could only create ripples against it, unable to cause any real damage.
As Lin Yu's warship approached, Xavier spoke through the communicator: "Lin Yu, you've finally arrived. This defense system is too powerful; we've tried everything but can't break through." Lin Yu looked at the energy shield, thought for a moment, and then said, "Let's study these defensive runes together; maybe we can find a way to break through."
The two teams then began working together to study the runes on the energy shield. Using analytical instruments on their warships, they scanned and analyzed the runes. After much effort, they discovered a complex energy cycle mechanism among the runes; breaking any one link would compromise the entire defense system.
“I’ve discovered that the connection between this rune’s energy fluctuations and the other runes is the most crucial. If we can disrupt the energy transmission of this rune, we might be able to break through the defenses,” Xavier said, pointing to a rune on the screen. Lin Yu nodded and said, “Okay, let’s attack this rune together. I’ll use the warship’s main cannon, and you can use a special weapon to disrupt its energy fluctuations.”
Once ready, Lin Yu and Xavier launched their attacks simultaneously. Lin Yu's warship fired a powerful energy beam from its main cannon, while Xavier used a special weapon to unleash a disruptive wave, precisely hitting the crucial rune. Under the dual attack, the rune's energy fluctuations began to become chaotic, and the light on its energy shield began to flicker erratically.
As the attack continued, the energy transmission of the runes was finally successfully severed, and the energy shield vanished instantly. Xavier's warship broke free of its restraints and slowly sailed away. "We succeeded!" the crowd cheered excitedly.
Xavier piloted his warship closer to Lin Yu's warship and said gratefully through the communicator, "Thanks to you all, otherwise we don't know how long we would have been trapped." Lin Yu smiled and said, "Don't mention it, we are partners fighting side by side. Now, let's find the second key together."
Based on Xavier's previous explorations, the second key might be hidden in ancient ruins on an ice-covered planet in the galaxy. Thus, the two teams embarked on their journey once more. When they arrived at the planet, they were met with a world of pure white, howling winds, and blizzards; the harsh environment greatly hampered their operations. Where exactly are these ancient ruins hidden in this icy world? What new challenges will they encounter in their search for the key?
