Chapter 275 Earth's "Age of Exploration"
Su Chen's order acted like a shot of adrenaline, quickly calming the entire Earth fleet from the euphoria of surviving the catastrophe and plunging them into a new wave of fervor.
Clean up the battlefield!
Everyone understands what this means.
Those debris floating in space represent technology far beyond what Earth's civilization could imagine.
This is an unprecedented and enormous opportunity!
"All combat teams, immediately convert to engineering teams!"
"Deploy all 'Worker Bee' drones and conduct a comprehensive search!"
"Elder Ogus... no, Captain Ogus! Please have your mothership assist us by using the tractor beam to drag the larger pieces of wreckage to the rendezvous point!"
Chen Zhou immediately began to give instructions in an orderly manner.
Oghuz, who had just surrendered, also showed the awareness that a "good servant" should have.
He obeyed Su Chen and Chen Zhou's orders without question, immediately directing his battered mothership to diligently perform its menial tasks like a giant scavenger ship.
Although he felt humiliated to the point of bleeding, the contract deep in his soul prevented him from resisting in the slightest.
Moreover, he also saw the remains of those harvesters.
As an elder of the Star Devouring Cult, he knew better than any Earthling how terrifyingly valuable these things were.
If these technologies could be deciphered… his gaze toward the “Pangu” became even more complex and awe-inspiring.
Perhaps, following this mysterious young master, one's future achievements will surpass those of becoming an elder in a sect?
The thought flashed through his mind for only a moment before he extinguished it.
He has no right to think about these things now.
The entire fleet has become a giant "scavenging" team.
Earth warships moved among the wreckage, using small traction beams and robotic arms to collect pieces of varying sizes into their cargo holds.
The massive mothership was responsible for handling the enormous wreckage that was often several kilometers long.
Although the scene was busy, everyone's face was filled with the joy of a bountiful harvest.
Su Chen, on the bridge of the "Pangu" ship, contacted Shen Mo and Zhao Gang, who were at the lunar base, via remote communication.
When the holographic projection was activated, Shen Mo and Zhao Gang were stunned speechless for a long time when they saw the spectacular scene behind Su Chen, where countless warship wrecks were floating.
"Advisor...whose house did you...run?"
Zhao Gang stammered, feeling as if his worldview had been refreshed once again.
"The situation is a bit complicated and can't be explained in just a few words."
Su Chen smiled and said, "Anyway, we've struck it rich. Get ready, I brought back some 'local specialties' for you."
"Local specialties?"
Shen Mo's eyes were fixed on the wreckage of a Reaper warship, half of which was being towed by the mothership's tractor beam behind Su Chen.
The black crystalline structure, the futuristic-looking metal skeleton, the dark golden energy patterns flowing across it that hadn't completely dissipated...
All of this made this top scientist on Earth breathe rapidly.
"Oh My God……"
Shen Mo's voice trembled: "This...this is such a perfect creation! This material structure, this energy circuit...it...it's not even what we understand as a 'technological creation,' it's more like a...living entity!"
"That's right."
Su Chen nodded: "Therefore, this analysis and reverse engineering will be an extremely challenging task. I need you to mobilize all of Earth's top scientific research resources and prepare for a tough battle."
"No problem! Leave it to us!"
A raging fire had already ignited in Shen Mo's eyes, the kind of fervor a scientist feels when they discover the ultimate mystery.
"Don't even mention a tough battle; even if it costs me my life, I'll figure this thing out!"
Zhao Gang, rubbing his hands excitedly, exclaimed, "Don't worry, Advisor! We'll provide the manpower and resources you need! I'll go and apply to the Supreme Committee right now to pour all our resources into this!"
After ending the communication, Su Chen glanced at the busy fleet one last time.
He knew that once these spoils were transported back, Earth's civilization would usher in an unprecedented "Age of Exploration" marked by a technological explosion.
Fourth-generation psionic weapons, new energy shields, and even decomposition technology that can interfere with space... These things, which previously only existed in fantasy, will gradually enter the research and development stage as these remnants are analyzed.
The Earth's technology tree will be forcibly illuminated by a large segment.
Just then, a communications officer responsible for compiling information on the spoils of war suddenly reported:
"Commander, report! Search Team 37 has discovered a navigation data core, which has not yet been completely destroyed, in the wreckage of a Star Eater Cult escort ship!"
"Oh?"
Su Chen became interested: "What's inside?"
"Most of the data was corrupted, but we managed to recover a small portion. It was... an incomplete star map."
The communications officer projected the incomplete star map onto the main screen.
It was an unfamiliar star field, marked with the coordinates of several galaxies.
At the end of the star map, an area marked with a blood-red emphasis caught Su Chen's attention.
Next to that area, there was a note written in the secret language of the Star Eater Cult.
"Prophet, translate."
"Translating... Translation complete."
On the screen appeared a few words that made Su Chen's heart race.
"Third fragment of the map, the cemetery of civilization."
The third fragment of the Genesis Ark map!
Its location is in a forbidden area known as the "Civilization Cemetery"!
In the Shadow's memory, there are also scattered records of this place.
It was an ancient star field filled with danger and curses, where countless once glorious civilizations ultimately perished inexplicably, without even knowing why.
That place is the nightmare of all interstellar explorers, a forbidden zone for life.
Unexpectedly, the Star Devouring Cult also set its sights there.
Su Chen looked at the star map, his eyes becoming incredibly deep.
A new goal has emerged.
However, before embarking on the next expedition, he must first thoroughly digest the gains of this expedition and transform them into the true strength of Earth's civilization.
Meanwhile, in another part of the lunar base, in a gravity training room specifically prepared for high-level awakened individuals...
Liu Yiyi and Lin Xue are undergoing rigorous training.
Sweat soaked through their combat uniforms, but their eyes were filled with determination.
"Sister Yiyi, tell me, how is Su Chen now?"
Lin Xue asked breathlessly as she dodged the incoming energy balls.
"He'll be alright," Liu Yiyi replied decisively.
"He's Su Chen, after all. What we need to do now isn't worry about him, but strive to become stronger, strong enough... next time, to stand by his side, instead of just waiting for news from the rear!"
After saying that, she let out a delicate shout, and the long sword in her hand burst forth with a dazzling light, splitting the object in front of her in two.
Their strength was also rapidly improving with the resources and techniques provided by Su Chen.
They are all contributing their own strength to the future of this civilization.
