Chapter 306 Rune Deciphering and Ruins Exploration
Ellie's fingers flew across the detection device, her forehead beaded with sweat. She was completely absorbed in deciphering the information behind the energy runes; the complex and mysterious encryption language of the ancient civilization had become her key weapon in her battle against the dark creatures. As she delved deeper into the deciphering, the runes' flashing frequency gradually slowed, and the dark creatures' attacks weakened accordingly.
"Almost there!" Ellie gritted her teeth, her gaze fixed intently on the screen, trying to grasp the secret that was about to be unlocked. Finally, as the last set of rune codes was cracked, the energy runes surrounding the ruins changed abruptly, transforming from a powerful offensive state into a gentle fluctuation. The dark creatures seemed to have lost their source of power; their movements became sluggish, and their attacks became feeble.
Seizing this golden opportunity, Lin Yu commanded the fleet to launch a final counterattack. The main cannon of the "Starshine" was fully charged, and a dazzling beam of energy pierced the darkness, accurately striking one of the most powerful dark creatures. This dark creature instantly dissipated under the impact of the energy beam, and the other dark creatures, seeing this, fled and disappeared into the shadows of the ruins.
After the battle, the fleet slowly approached the ancient ruins. As they set foot on the ruins, an ancient and mysterious aura enveloped them. The walls of the ruins were covered with various strange patterns and symbols, closely related to the history and technology of the ancient civilization. Ellie and her research team immediately began their investigation, hoping to find more clues about mysterious powers and forbidden lands within these ruins.
Deep within the ruins, they discovered a massive stone gate. Engraved on the gate was a huge star map, shimmering with an eerie light, seemingly guiding them. Ellie carefully examined the star map, trying to find clues to open the gate. She discovered that the frequency of certain stars in the star map was related to an ancient civilization's timekeeping system. After some calculations, she finally found the corresponding code.
As the password was entered, the stone door slowly opened with a dull thud. An ancient aura emanated from within, as if telling the story of time's vicissitudes. Inside was a vast, secret chamber, in the center of which sat a massive crystal ball. The crystal ball emitted a soft glow, and countless stars seemed to twinkle within it.
As Lin Yu and Ellie approached the crystal ball, it suddenly emitted a brilliant light, enveloping them. Within the light, they witnessed a series of breathtaking scenes: the birth of the universe, the rise and fall of ancient civilizations, the origin of mysterious forces… It turned out that this crystal ball was a memory storage device left behind by an ancient civilization, recording a forgotten chapter of history in the universe.
According to the records in the crystal ball, the mysterious power originates from a dark corner of the universe; it is an entity with an extreme thirst for energy. In order to obtain powerful energy, it constantly searches for energy nodes in the universe, and energy collection stations and forbidden lands are its targets. Hidden within the forbidden lands is a powerful energy called "Stellar Core Power," which can alter the order of the universe. If this mysterious power were to obtain it, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Lin Yu and Ellie realized the gravity of the situation and decided to immediately return to the fleet to inform the representatives of the Azel civilization of their discovery. However, when they stepped out of the secret chamber, they found the atmosphere within the ruins to have become strangely eerie. The once quiet ruins were now filled with low, rumbling sounds, as if something enormous was awakening.
Suddenly, the ground began to tremble violently, and cracks rapidly spread. From the depths of the ruins, a gigantic mechanical creature slowly rose. This mechanical creature was entirely composed of black metal, exuding a chilling aura. Its eyes flashed red, revealing boundless killing intent.
Lin Yu swiftly drew his weapon and shouted, "Everyone be careful! This might be the last line of defense protecting the ruins!" The team members raised their weapons, confronting the mechanical creature. The mechanical creature slowly raised its arm, and a powerful beam of energy shot towards the fleet. Lin Yu directed the team to quickly dodge; the energy beam grazed the edge of the fleet, struck a distant building, and caused a violent explosion.
Faced with such powerful mechanical beings, can the fleet once again escape danger? And how will they stop the mysterious force from acquiring the "Star Core Power"? Everything remains unknown, waiting for them to overcome one by one.
