Chapter 922

Everyone nodded and approved Elise's proposal. Since then, Blue Star has started a new round of construction in full swing.

Time flies, and a few years have passed. The Universe Cultural Exchange Center has been built on Blue Star. It is like a bright interstellar pearl, attracting civilizations from all over the world. Alien friends of different skin colors and shapes shuttle among them, sharing the scientific and technological achievements, artistic treasures and unique cultures of their respective planets. Blue Star people also took this opportunity to learn a lot of unprecedented knowledge, and the field of scientific research has made rapid progress.

On this day, Li Yang was discussing new energy conversion technology with a scientist from a distant planet in the exchange center. Bai Zhi hurried over, looking slightly anxious: "Li Yang, there is something new. Our deep space probe discovered something at the edge of the Milky Way. There was a mysterious energy fluctuation with extremely abnormal frequency, which was suspected to be related to some kind of super-large interstellar weapon.”

Li Yang frowned when he heard this. After saying goodbye to his alien friends in a hurry, he and Bai Zhi hurried back to the laboratory. Elise had been waiting for a long time. When she saw the two people coming in, she immediately pointed at the holographic image and said: "This energy fluctuation is too strange. I used the power of the rainbow to detect it from a distance, but I was unable to penetrate its core area. It seemed as if it was being trapped. An invisible force blocked it."

Li Yang stared at the image, pondered for a moment and said: "No matter what it is, the potential threat cannot be underestimated. We have to organize an elite scientific expedition team to investigate it personally, and bring a trolley along with us, just in case."

Bai Zhi nodded in agreement: "That's fine. If you know yourself and the enemy, you can win a hundred battles. However, this operation must be secretive, so as not to alert the enemy and cause unnecessary trouble."

Soon, a scientific expedition team composed of top scientific researchers and elite warriors was formed, boarding a special interstellar spacecraft and heading towards the edge of the galaxy. Along the way, everyone was nervous and always paying attention to the surrounding movements.

When they arrived at their destination, the sight before them took everyone's breath away. I saw a giant ring-shaped facility suspended in a vast nebula. Strange runes were engraved around the facility, and faint blue light burst out from time to time, which was the source of the mysterious energy.

"What the hell is this?" One team member's eyes widened with shock on his face.

Li Yang looked solemn and controlled the spacecraft to approach slowly: "No matter what it is, scan and analyze it first and collect as much data as possible."

But just as the spacecraft approached a certain range of the ring facility, it suddenly began to tremble violently, and alarms sounded one after another.

"No, I've been discovered!" Bai Zhi exclaimed.

Before he finished speaking, the ring-shaped facility suddenly shot out several thick beams of light, heading straight for the spacecraft. Li Yang had quick eyes and quick hands, and quickly released the cart to resist. The cart's entire body shone brightly, and it withstood the beam attack.

"Retreat! Keep the distance first!" Li Yang shouted.

The spacecraft retreated urgently. At the same time, the space around the ring facility began to twist and deform. Small aircraft with strange shapes came out one after another, and surrounded the scientific expedition team in a fan shape.

"It seems that it's not that easy to escape unscathed." Elise gritted her teeth and danced with her hands. The power of the rainbow spread instantly, turning into barriers to protect the spacecraft.

Not to be outdone, the scientific expedition team controlled weapons one after another and launched a fierce battle with the incoming aircraft. For a time, the interstellar battlefield was filled with rays of light and artillery fire.

Under the control of Li Yang, the cart was like a dragon sailing out of the sea, rushing left and right among the enemy groups, and the aircraft exploded wherever it went. However, there were too many enemies, and they kept coming, and the scientific expedition team gradually fell into a bitter battle.

"There is no way to go on like this. We have to think of a way to break the situation!" Li Yang was sweating on his forehead and worried.

Bai Zhi watched the battle closely and suddenly had an idea: "Li Yang, look at the energy fluctuations in the ring-shaped facility. There seem to be several key nodes. If they can be destroyed, the entire facility may be paralyzed."

Li Yang followed Bai Zhi's gaze and found several nodes with particularly strong energy fluctuations. He was heartbroken: "Okay, I'll give it a try! Elise, cover me!"

Elise nodded heavily: "Don't worry, I'm here!"

Li Yang controlled the cart, carrying powerful energy, and rushed towards the key nodes of the ring-shaped facility. Seeing this, the enemy aircraft surrounded and intercepted like crazy, but they were all repelled by the carts one by one. Just as they were about to approach the node, the ring-shaped facility suddenly released a powerful electromagnetic interference, and the cart's movement slowed down instantly.

"Oops!" Li Yang secretly shouted.

At the critical moment, Elise tried her best, and the power of the rainbow turned into a majestic torrent, canceling out the electromagnetic interference. The cart took the opportunity to accelerate and hit a key node. There was a loud noise, the light at the node exploded, and the energy fluctuations of the ring-shaped facility were instantly chaotic.

"Successful!" Everyone in the scientific expedition team cheered.

Enemy aircraft that lost energy support fell one after another. The scientific expedition team took advantage of the situation and launched a charge, killing the remaining enemies in one fell swoop.

After the battle subsided, everyone cautiously approached the ring facility and began to conduct in-depth research and analysis. After some hard work, its mystery was finally unveiled.

It turned out that this was a defensive fortress left behind by an ancient interstellar civilization. Due to its age, some of the programs were disordered, and the scientific expedition team was mistakenly regarded as an intruder. The fortress contains a large amount of advanced technology and precious resources, which is undoubtedly a huge wealth for Blue Star.

"The harvest this time is so rich!" Li Yang said excitedly, "Bring it back to Blue Star and study it carefully. Our technological level will definitely reach a higher level."

Everyone was delighted. They dismantled the fortress, loaded it onto the spacecraft, and set off on their return journey. After returning to Blue Star, the scientific research team immediately devoted themselves to intensive research work. Relying on the technology in the fortress, they successively overcame many difficulties and developed a series of cross-era scientific and technological products.

Blue Star is becoming more and more prosperous, and its influence in the universe is also increasing day by day. But Li Yang and others know that the mysteries of the universe are endless and crises are always around. In the future, there are more unknowns waiting for them to explore and challenge, but the people of Blue Star have long been prepared. With fearless courage, outstanding wisdom and the power of unity, they will overcome obstacles and move forward steadily in this vast galaxy.

That day, Li Yang stood on the highest observation deck of Blue Star, looking at the starry night sky, with a lot of emotion in his heart. Bai Zhi and Iris came quietly and stood beside him.

"What are you thinking about?" Bai Zhi asked softly.

Li Yang smiled slightly: "Nothing, I just feel that it has been too difficult along the way. From the initial fight against God's punishment to the current exploration of the galaxy and the fruitful harvest, every step is full of hardships, but fortunately we never give up."

Iris also said with emotion: "Yes, Blue Star can be what it is today, all thanks to everyone's concerted efforts. There is still a long way to go in the future, I hope we can always protect this peace and prosperity."

Li Yang's eyes are firm, looking into the depths of the vast universe: "Don't worry, as long as our faith is not extinguished, Blue Star will bloom with eternal light in this universe, fearless of any challenge!"

The three were immersed in the emotion of the past and the expectation of the future, suddenly, Bai Zhi's communicator rang urgently. She looked down, her face instantly became solemn, and she whispered: "Li Yang, Iris, urgent news came from the Alliance, saying that in the 'Shattered Star Belt' area not far from Blue Star, several interstellar caravans disappeared one after another, suspected to have encountered interstellar pirates."

Li Yang frowned, and a sharp look flashed in his eyes: "Interstellar pirates? Humph, these guys have always been elusive, specifically targeting caravans and plundering resources. The interstellar trade order we have finally established cannot be disrupted by them."

Iris also frowned and crossed her arms: "The environment in the Shattered Star Belt is complex, with dense asteroids and chaotic gravity. It is indeed an excellent place for interstellar pirates to hide. But they are so rampant this time, attacking caravans one after another, and there may be other hidden stories behind it."

Li Yang thought for a while and said decisively: "No matter what, let's find out first. Gather our elite fleet and bring the latest detection equipment. This time we must wipe out these pirates in one pot."

Soon, a well-equipped fleet was assembled in outer space of Blue Star. Li Yang, Bai Zhi and Iris boarded the flagship and led the fleet to rush towards the star-shattering belt. Along the way, the fleet remained highly alert, with all kinds of detection instruments fully turned on, not letting go of any abnormalities.

When they arrived at the edge of the star-shattering belt, the scene in front of them made everyone gasp. Interstellar debris was seen floating everywhere, energy turbulence flashed from time to time, and a gloomy breath came over them.

"This is a damn place, no wonder pirates like to hide here." A fleet member muttered in a low voice.

Li Yang looked grim and ordered: "Slow down, turn on the invisible shield, and act carefully. Send out a few reconnaissance drones first to find out where the pirates are hiding."

The drone quietly flew into the star-shattering belt, and not long after, the pictures sent back made everyone furious. Behind a hidden asteroid group, there were several rough-looking and well-armed pirate ships parked, with the logos of various caravans hanging on the hulls, which were obviously looted "trophies". The crew members of the caravan were imprisoned on a dilapidated transport ship, all of them looked depressed.

"Too arrogant!" Iris gritted her teeth, "They dared to do evil under our noses, we must not let them go."

Bai Zhi analyzed calmly: "Don't worry, looking at this situation, there are a lot of pirates, and they are familiar with the terrain of the Star Fragment Belt. We may suffer a loss if we fight hard. We have to think of a comprehensive tactic to catch them off guard."

Li Yang nodded slightly, his eyes swept across the holographic tactical board, and he quickly conceived a plan in his mind: "So, we will divide our troops into three groups. Iris, you lead one group and use the power of the rainbow to interfere with the pirates' communications and radar systems, making them blind and deaf; Bai Zhi, you lead another group to flank and use our newly developed high-energy pulse cannon to paralyze their power system; I will take the cart to attack head-on, attract their firepower, and disrupt their deployment."

"Okay, let's do it!" Iris and Bai Zhi responded in unison.

The plan was set, and the fleet moved quietly. Iris took the lead, and the power of the rainbow quietly penetrated into the electronic equipment of the pirate ship like a flexible silk thread. In an instant, the communicator on the pirate ship sizzled, the radar screen was covered with snow, and the crew fell into panic.

"What's going on? The communication is broken and the radar is out of order!" A pirate leader shouted in panic.

Before they could react, Li Yang controlled the cart like a tiger descending from the mountain, wrapped in dazzling light, and rushed straight towards the pirate fleet. Seeing this, the pirates turned their guns and fired wildly at the cart. But the cart was not a vegetarian, and it easily resolved the attack. Wherever it went, the outer shell of the pirate ship was smashed to pieces.

"What kind of monster is this?" The pirates were terrified.

At the same time, the flanking troops led by Bai Zhi took the opportunity to outflank and were in place, with high-energy pulse cannons firing at full power. Blue beams hit the power cabin of the pirate ship accurately, and the pirate ship instantly lost power and spun in place.

The battle was one-sided, and the pirates were losing ground. But these guys were veterans after all. They fought to the death and came up with a desperate tactic. The captain of a pirate ship roared with red eyes: "We're going to die anyway, let's take them with us!" After that, he activated the self-destruction program on the ship.

"No, they're going to self-destruct!" Li Yang exclaimed.

Iris was quick-witted, and the power of the rainbow quickly condensed into a solid shield to block the impact of the self-destruction. The rest of the pirates saw that the situation was over and surrendered.

Everyone rescued the crew of the caravan, cleaned up the battlefield, and returned triumphantly. After this incident, Blue Star's prestige in the interstellar space was once again enhanced. Many caravans took the initiative to seek the protection of Blue Star, and interstellar trade became more prosperous.

However, not long after the peaceful days, new problems followed. On this day, Li Yang was studying the newly acquired alien technology in the laboratory, and a research assistant hurried over: "Dr. Li Yang, something happened! Our communication with several important allies was suddenly interrupted, and the interstellar signal was completely blocked. It is suspected that it was interfered with by high-tech means."

Li Yang's heart sank, knowing that this matter was serious. The interruption of communication meant that intelligence could not be exchanged, and the alliance could fall apart at any time. He immediately summoned Bai Zhi and Iris to discuss countermeasures.

Iris said solemnly: "The technological level of the power behind the silent shielding of interstellar signals should not be underestimated. Could it be that the Dark Abyss, whom we offended before, has come back again and is waiting for revenge?"

Bai Zhi shook her head: "Not likely. The Dark Abyss just suffered a defeat and was seriously injured. They should not have this ability in a short time. I think it is more likely that it is a newly emerging force that wants to make a name for itself on the interstellar stage and use our Blue Star as a warning to others."

Li Yang pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice: "No matter who it is, first find a way to restore communication and then find out the mastermind behind it. Iris, use the power of the rainbow to try to break through the signal shielding and see if you can get in touch with the outside world; Bai Zhi, organize a technical team to investigate the source of interference, and I will go to the alliance headquarters to learn about the situation of other allies."

The three acted separately. Iris came to the sky above Blue Star, dancing with her hands, and the power of the rainbow shone brightly, turning into a series of gorgeous ribbons, spreading towards the depths of the universe. She closed her eyes tightly and tried her best to sense the fluctuation of the signal. Her forehead was covered with sweat. After a long time, she shook her head helplessly: "No, the shielding force is too strong. My rainbow power can only penetrate a small part of it. I can't establish stable communication at all."

On the other side, Bai Zhi led the technical team in the laboratory. Various instruments were running frantically, and data was rolling like a tide, but the exact location of the interference source could not be found. "This interference method is too advanced and completely beyond our current cognition." A technician said annoyed.

When Li Yang rushed to the alliance headquarters, he found that it was also in chaos. The representatives of various allies were clamoring and anxious.

"Blue Star people, you have to think of a solution! Communication is interrupted, our trade routes are all paralyzed, and the losses are heavy!"

"If we can't find a solution, our alliance will be dead in name only!"

Li Yang raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and said calmly: "Don't panic, we are already doing our best to investigate the problem. This is obviously a deliberate act by a force, trying to destroy our alliance and reap the benefits. At present, we must unite, share intelligence, and work together to find out the mastermind behind the scenes."

Everyone calmed down and began to exchange the clues they collected. After a difficult investigation, they finally found a clue. It turned out that the source of signal interference came from a mysterious planet deep in the Milky Way. This planet had never appeared on the interstellar map before, as if it had appeared out of thin air.

"It seems that the key to all the problems lies on this mysterious planet." Li Yang's eyes were firm, "Let's organize a joint fleet and go to find out for ourselves."

The allies responded one after another, and soon a huge fleet composed of elites from various planets was assembled. Li Yang, Bai Zhi and Iris set out again and headed towards the mysterious planet.

After sailing in the vast universe for a long time, the fleet finally arrived above the mysterious planet. What came into view was a completely black planet, with a strange energy shield covering the surface, and all signals were ruthlessly swallowed up here.

"This place looks weird." A member of the fleet shuddered.

Li Yang looked solemn and ordered: "Don't approach rashly. Send out a reconnaissance robot to scan the surface of the planet to see if you can find an entrance or weakness."

The reconnaissance robot flew away quietly, and not long after, the picture sent back made everyone's eyes widen. I saw that the surface of the planet was covered with dense high-tech weapons, and there were energy transmission pipelines, which continuously released interference signals into the universe.

"My goodness, this is a thorough military fortress!" Bai Zhi exclaimed.

Iris frowned: "Such a powerful defense facility, it is definitely not possible to break in. We have to think of a clever way to destroy its energy transmission system and paralyze the entire interference device."

Li Yang nodded in agreement and then discussed tactics with his allies. Finally, it was decided that Iris would use the power of the rainbow to cover a group of commandos to sneak into the interior of the planet and destroy the energy transmission node; the rest of the fleet would feint at high altitude to attract the planet's firepower.

The plan was implemented, Iris waved her hands, and the power of the rainbow turned into a colorful cloud, wrapping the commandos in it. With the help of the cover, the commandos successfully landed on the surface of the planet and moved towards the energy transmission node.

At the same time, the fleet opened fire, and various beams of light poured down towards the planet. The defensive weapons on the planet were not to be outdone, and they fought back frantically. For a time, the interstellar battlefield was filled with roaring artillery and interlaced light.

Under the cover of Iris, the commandos arrived at the energy transmission node safely. But just as they were about to destroy it, a group of mechanical guards suddenly emerged from the surroundings, all of them tall and well-armed, and rushed towards the commandos.

"Hold on! Don't let them get close to the node!" the captain roared.

The team members took out their weapons and fought fiercely with the mechanical guards. The battle was extremely fierce, and team members were constantly injured and fell, but they gritted their teeth and fought desperately.

At the critical moment, Li Yang controlled the cart to come to support. The cart rushed into the enemy formation like a whirlwind, and instantly knocked away a large number of mechanical guards. The commandos took the opportunity to launch a general attack and successfully destroyed the energy transmission node.

As the node was destroyed, the energy shield of the mysterious planet gradually dissipated, and the interference signal also stopped abruptly. Interstellar communication was restored instantly, and the alliance fleet took advantage of the situation to launch a charge and destroyed the remaining defense facilities on the planet one by one.

When the war subsided, everyone discovered that the one who controlled all this was a mysterious force called the "Shadow Machinery Clan". This race is extremely obsessed with mechanical technology and wants to dominate the universe by controlling interstellar communication.

"Humph, the ambition is not small, but it's a pity that the wrong opponent was chosen." Li Yang sneered.

After this incident, the relationship between Blue Star and its allies became closer, and everyone knew the power of unity. In order to prevent similar incidents from happening again, Blue Star took the lead and united with its allies to establish a more advanced interstellar communication defense system, and also established an intelligence sharing mechanism to always be vigilant against potential threats in the universe.

Time flies, and Blue Star is moving steadily forward on the road of exploration and development. On this day, Li Yang, Bai Zhi and Iris were invited to attend an interstellar event. At the meeting, representatives from various planets gathered together to exchange scientific and technological achievements and discuss the way to peaceful development of the universe.

With its accumulated scientific and technological strength and influence over the years, Blue Star became the focus of the event. Many weak planets took the initiative to seek cooperation, hoping to develop themselves with the help of Blue Star's technology.

"Dr. Li Yang, I never thought that Blue Star could develop to such a level in such a short time. Your scientific and technological achievements are eye-opening." An alien representative exclaimed sincerely.

Li Yang smiled modestly: "This is not my own credit, but the result of the joint efforts of all Blue Star people. The universe is vast, with crises and opportunities coexisting. We Blue Star are willing to work hand in hand with everyone to explore the mysteries of the universe and maintain interstellar peace."

Iris also nodded in agreement: "Yes, cultural exchanges and scientific and technological cooperation are the ties that bring the planets closer. Only when we unite as one can we survive in this cruel universe."

Bai Zhi looked at the starry night sky outside the venue and said softly: "The road ahead is still long, and we still have many unknowns to explore and challenge. But I believe that as long as the faith is not extinguished, Blue Star and all like-minded planets will be able to open up a beautiful new world in the universe."
