Let you do a copy, you do Wuchang: Great Wall Watch

[I think there is still a risk. After all, the intelligence system of the Terra civilization is so strong that they may not fail to notice Sterkar's little tricks! ]

[This is the world of Warhammer 40K. Terra civilization is everywhere. I'm afraid that Sterkar is in great danger this time! ]

Sterkar frowned as he watched the progress of the exploration mission.

Although everything seemed to be going well, he always felt a little uneasy.

Suddenly, Tomoko's voice sounded in his mind again: "Master Pioneer, the exploration team A encountered an unidentified ship while performing a mission. We are unable to identify its model. Should we continue to approach?"

Stekar stood up abruptly, his eyes fixed on the display screen.

"Immediately tell them to stop approaching and keep a safe distance. First find out who the other party is!"

"Understood, the order has been issued!" Tomoko's tone remained calm.

The exploration fleet began to slow down, trying to avoid the unidentified ship, but at this moment, the unidentified ship suddenly began to accelerate and approached the exploration team at a rapid speed.

Sterkar's heart trembled: "This is a hostile action! Leo, send a frigate to reinforce Group A immediately!"

Leo's communication was immediately connected: "Already in action! But the distance is far, they may not be able to hold out for too long!"

Sterkar said coldly: "Let Group A hold off the opponent as much as possible. Once the frigate arrives, launch a counterattack immediately!"

Leo responded and the frigate moved forward at full speed, but the detection ship of Group A seemed to be powerless when facing the unidentified ship.

The live broadcast room was flooded with comments again:

[What the hell! What's going on? Encountered the enemy again?! ]

[This unidentified ship doesn't look simple. Sterkar's exploration team is probably going to be in trouble! ]

[Is this the edge of Terra civilization? It doesn’t look that safe! ]

[Group A is in danger. It's still a question whether the escort ship can arrive in time! ]

[I'm getting nervous. I'm afraid that Sterkar will lose a detection team this time! 】

Sterkar stared at the screen, clenching his fists slightly. "No, we can't let them be wiped out! Elena, contact the other exploration teams immediately and ask them to prepare for evacuation. If Group A can't hold on, the other teams must also retreat immediately!"

Elena quickly operated the communication system and conveyed the instructions to all exploration teams.

Sterkar looked at the detection ship group A on the screen. They were already in danger due to the approach of unidentified ships.

The speed of the unidentified ship was far beyond expectations, and it approached Group A's detection ship almost instantly. The flashing red warning light on the screen was particularly dazzling.

"Damn it, Leo, how long will it take for the frigate to arrive?" Stekar asked coldly.

Leo's voice came from the communicator, with obvious tension: "Master Pioneer, the frigate will arrive in five minutes. They are rushing to the target area at full speed, but I'm afraid Group A can't hold out that long!"

Sterkar's face was gloomy, his brows were furrowed. "Let Team A delay as much time as possible, activate all protective measures, and hold back that unidentified ship!"

"They have been ordered to activate all defense systems, but the opponent's weapon system looks very powerful, and our detection ships simply do not have enough combat power to deal with it!" Leo's voice was helpless.

"Damn it!" Stekar stood up with a hint of anxiety in his eyes.

He never liked being in a passive situation, especially in tense moments like this.

Elena also came over at this time, her brows furrowed. "Master Pioneer, this unidentified ship is very likely the secret weapon of the Terra civilization. They deployed this kind of ship in the fringe area, obviously not just for monitoring, but most likely to directly eliminate any approaching threats!"

Sterkar gritted his teeth and said, "The Terra civilization will not let us get close easily!"

Elena continued, “It seems that we need to prepare a stronger force to counter these deployments of Terra civilization. The exploration ship alone is far from enough.

Maybe more warships or hidden technology equipment is needed!"

"Is it useful for you to say this now?" Stekar snorted coldly: "Rescue Group A first!"

Elena spread her hands helplessly and continued to operate the console.

At this moment, the unidentified ship on the screen suddenly emitted a dazzling beam of light, directly hitting one of the detection ships of Group A.

A few seconds later, the signal of the probe ship disappeared and it was completely destroyed.

"Damn it!" Sterkar punched the armrest angrily. "Their weapon system is beyond our imagination!"

Leo's voice came again: "Master Pioneer, Group A has lost a detection ship, and the remaining ships are trying their best to evade, but the situation is very bad.

The frigate will arrive in three minutes!"

Sterkar took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. "Let the remaining ships in Group A evade with all their might and save their lives first. Once the escort ships arrive, launch a counterattack immediately!"

"Understood! I will continue to command them to evade!" Leo responded quickly.

The comments in the live broadcast room were also completely blown up at this moment:

[Fuck! The probe ship was instantly killed! The Terra civilization is truly so terrifying! ]

[What the hell is this unidentified ship? With such a powerful weapon system, Sterkar has no way to resist! ]

[Stekar is really going to fail in this mission. It's so hopeless! ]

[This is the Terran civilization in Warhammer 40K. It doesn't give you a chance to breathe! ]

[The escort ship will arrive in three minutes. I'm afraid the remaining probe ships won't make it! ]

[Stekar really shot himself in the foot this time, the exploration mission completely failed! ]

At this moment, a new signal suddenly appeared on the radar screen. Elena's eyes widened suddenly: "Master Pioneer, there is more than one unidentified ship! We have detected two smaller ships, and they are rapidly approaching the remaining exploration ships of Group A!"

"More ships?" Sterkar gritted his teeth. "They want to wipe us all out in one go!"

"The other party obviously doesn't want to give us any chance!" Elena said solemnly: "The weapons and equipment of these ships seem to be more powerful than expected, and their goal is clear, which is to completely destroy Group A!"

"Let the frigate speed up, they must arrive as soon as possible!" Stekar ordered loudly.

Leo's voice sounded even more nervous: "The frigate is already traveling at full speed, but we have to tow the unidentified ship!"

Stekar stared at the screen intently. Seeing the two smaller ships getting closer and closer, he suddenly turned around and looked at Elena: "Is there any way to temporarily block the signal of our detection ship? Make them disappear from the radar for a while?"

Elena quickly operated the console and shook her head after a moment: "Master Pioneer, our probe ship does not have such a function, and even if the signal is blocked, their optical system can still capture the existence of the probe ship!"

"Damn it!" Sterkar cursed angrily, "Are we just going to watch Group A being wiped out?" Elena was silent for a while, and suddenly said, "Perhaps we can try to use the engine overload of the probe ship to create a short energy burst and interfere with the opponent's weapon system!"

Sterkar frowned: "In that case, the energy system of the probe ship itself will also be damaged. The risk is too great!"

"Indeed, but this is the only way to buy time for the frigate!" Elena looked at Stekar, waiting for his decision.

Sterkar gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, let's give it a try. We can't just sit there and wait for death!"

"I understand. I'll arrange it right away!" Elena quickly started to work.

At this time, the detection ship of Group A has reached a moment of life and death. The weapon system of the unidentified ship is recharging again, obviously preparing for the next round of attack.

Just as the attack was about to begin, the probe ship's engine suddenly flashed a blinding light, and then a strong energy wave erupted, briefly interfering with the unidentified ship's locking system.

Leo's voice came through the communication, full of surprise: "Master Pioneer, the interference was successful! The unidentified ship has temporarily lost its lock on us!"

Sterkar immediately seized the opportunity and shouted, "Let Group A retreat at full speed. The frigate will be here soon!"

"Understood!" Leo responded.

At the same time, the live broadcast room's barrage broke out again:
[Fuck! Sterkar actually came up with this idea! Engine overload can actually interfere with the enemy!]

[This is so exciting. Can Group A hold out until the frigate arrives this time?! ]

[I thought they were doomed, but I didn't expect them to do something like this! ]

[The ships of the Terran civilization are so powerful, Stekar is indeed quite capable! ]

[However, this overload will definitely have side effects. How long can Group A's probe ship last?! ]

[Although the interference was successful, the frigate has not arrived yet! This is so dangerous! ]

As the barrage said, although the interference was successful, Group A's detection ship also entered an energy emergency state. All systems were overloaded and could not be maintained for too long.

Sterkar's eyes were fixed on the radar screen, and his heartbeat quickened.

"How long will it take for the frigate to arrive?" Stekar asked in a low voice.

Leo's voice was a little nervous: "In less than a minute! We are approaching at full speed!"

A minute later, the frigate's signal finally appeared on the radar screen, and they were approaching the battlefield at an extremely fast speed.

A glimmer of hope flashed in Sterkar's eyes: "Launch a counterattack immediately and bomb those unknown ships!"

The frigate quickly entered combat status and opened fire at full power. The unidentified ship was suppressed for a while and was temporarily unable to continue chasing Group A's detection ship.

Leo's communication came again: "Master Pioneer, the frigate has arrived, we are launching fire suppression, Group A can retreat safely!"

Sterkar breathed a sigh of relief: "Very good, let Group A evacuate immediately, and then do our best to destroy these unidentified ships!"

The frigate's powerful firepower suppressed the unidentified ships, and they began to retreat slowly, obviously unwilling to engage in a head-on confrontation with the frigate.

Sterkar stared at the battle scene on the screen and sneered: "Terra civilization, you are lucky this time, we will not let you go so easily next time!"

The barrage in the live broadcast room also completely exploded:

[Hahaha! The frigate has finally arrived! This time Stekar has turned defense into offense! ]

[Fuck, this operation is so cool, Sterkar's probe ship can retreat safely! ]

[The unknown ship is about to be destroyed. Sterkar's counterattack is simply beautiful! ]

[This wave is really thrilling. I didn’t expect that I could counterattack! ]

[But having said that, the cost of this mission was not small. We lost a probe ship! ]

[Stekar is still quite capable. The Terran civilization has suffered a small setback this time! ]

Stekar stared coldly at the battle scene on the screen. The unidentified ship began to retreat under the fire suppression of the frigate, but he knew that this was only a temporary victory.

The power of the Terra civilization is definitely more than that. The reason we were able to force them back today was just because we were lucky enough to have the frigate provide timely support.

"Leo, do you want to continue the pursuit?" Elena asked after hesitating for a moment while standing aside.

Stekar waved his hand and said, “No need, don’t chase me too closely.

It's good that they retreated. Continuing to pursue them will only expose more of our cards.

Now we have to conserve our strength and wait for a better opportunity to strike again!"

Leo confirmed through the communication: “Received, Sir Pioneer, the frigate has stopped pursuing.

The remaining probe ships of Group A are withdrawing to a safe area, and we are escorting them back to the main ship!"

Sterkar nodded and said, "Very good. Let Group A return to the base for repairs immediately. The remaining exploration mission will be temporarily suspended.

We have been exposed, and the Terran civilization will definitely strengthen its defenses!"

There was a hint of regret in Leo's voice: "Yes, Master Pioneer, although we barely completed the retreat this time, the Terra civilization is becoming more and more wary of us. I'm afraid the next mission will be more difficult!"

"That's right. The Terra civilization reacted much faster than we expected!" Stekar sneered. "However, this mission is not a complete failure. At least we have tested some of their strength!"

Elena nodded in agreement: "Yes, we have obtained a lot of useful data, especially the combat mode and weapon system of the unidentified ship. Although Group A paid a price, this intelligence will be of great help to our future operations!"

Sterkar sat back in his chair and rubbed his temple: "Now we have to make a new plan. It is impossible to directly confront the fleet of Terra civilization.

Elena, have you made any new progress in your research projects? Especially the research on stealth technology and energy shielding! "

Elena took out the data pad, glanced at it and said, “The research on stealth technology is still in progress, but we have made some groundbreaking discoveries.

If we could find enough rare minerals, we might be able to build ships in the near future that could block most radar detection.

This will greatly improve the safety of the detection mission!"

"Rare mineral resources? These things are not abundant in our resource reserves!" Sterkar frowned slightly: "I'm afraid Holden will be angry again!"

Elena smiled helplessly: "Yes, these resources are very scarce on our planet. I'm afraid we need to carry out large-scale interstellar mining missions." (End of this chapter)
