Spaceship

These car enthusiasts, who are willing to do anything to increase their vehicles' speed and achieve the best driving experience and thrill, would even consider installing the Dark Energy system on their cars if it weren't for its enormous size.

The cause of the accident was determined to be an accident. After receiving feedback from relevant departments, the Castle's artificial intelligence marked and noted the incident, and everything returned to normal.

But Rowan started scratching his head again, because although most of the Castle's layout had been revealed, the most important part was the soundproof, shadowy areas, and figuring out how to infiltrate those areas was the key.

Rowan was facing the technology of the Epoch Clan, but he could only use templates from primitive creatures to operate it. The difficulty was too great, and Rowan racked his brains but couldn't come up with a good solution.

Just as Rowan was about to break down and launch a direct attack, things miraculously took a turn for the better.

In the bright sky, a small black dot appeared indistinctly, gradually growing larger. As it shrank, people on the ground would then realize that it was a combat spaceship with a strong military style.

It is only a little over a hundred meters long, with a shuttle-like shape, almost a scaled-down warship design, and a standard paint scheme, representing ordinariness and mass appeal. But despite its unremarkable appearance, it can fly straight to the Landing Pad next to the Castle's security system does not react to this small spaceship at all.

Rowan's Star Port in space were not yet set up, and his own people had not yet been assigned to some observation posts. Therefore, Rowan knew nothing about the key information, such as where the spacecraft came from and when it arrived.

However, Rowan detected the spaceship's presence the moment it entered the atmosphere and sparked. Although infiltration into outer space Star Port was slow, several Zerg Swarm bases were already operational on this Life Star.

Because this planet was primarily designed to serve the researchers on the Star Port, it has not been overdeveloped. Apart from a few cities, there are almost no human-made structures in the wild. As a result, the planet's ecological environment is extremely good, with a great variety of native flora and fauna.

This provided Rowan with a wealth of material to manipulate. On this planet, each region has one or more dominant sky rulers.

In addition to their sharp beaks and claws, they also have exceptional eyesight, which helps them locate targets on the ground at extremely high altitudes.

When Rowan first had spare energy to produce units at his Swarm base, in addition to prioritizing the deployment of spies around the Pot Spirit Race- style Castle, he also prioritized the production of many of these aerial overlords.

However, each of these large birds of prey requires a large hunting ground to sustain its daily needs. Therefore, as apex predators, they are very rare compared to other species.

Despite the lack of monitoring devices in the wild, the Epoch Clan's technology, coupled with their control of near-Earth orbit, makes deploying surveillance satellites a piece of cake.

Moreover, unlike other races, the Epoch Clan has a very high adoption rate of artificial intelligence due to the existence of "Ying". Although artificial intelligence is still resisted by some people, it is actually very popular.

Artificial intelligence excels at big data analysis. If one or two of these Swarm -like aerial raptors suddenly appear, it's not a big deal. But if Rowan releases too many of them rashly, it will definitely cause anomalies in some of the Epoch Clan's monitoring data and lead to some unnecessary trouble.

So, on several dark and windy nights, with heavy clouds and poor satellite visibility, many uninvited guests arrived at the nests of native raptors, whose nesting locations had already been locked by Swarm and birds of prey.

They are very much the owners of the nest. Not only did they work together to completely devour the original owner, but they also cleaned up the nest and erased the signs of the fight. In the end, they even left behind a bird of prey that looked almost exactly like the original owner to take over the nest.

In just a few dozen days, the Swarm had replaced almost all the wild birds of prey with their own. This was only because the base was in its early stages and didn't have many ground troops, plus the limitation of only being able to use native species. Otherwise, not to mention things like Electromagnetic Cannon, the Tracking Insect that Rowan had developed to exterminate Pterosaur on Origin Star would have been enough to easily take down these guys.

With these birds of his own, Rowan gained some initial control over the planet. At the very least, Rowan could learn about events that occurred on the planet within minutes of them happening.

This standard spacecraft from outer space made no attempt to conceal itself upon entering the atmosphere; its bright red fireball immediately caught the attention of birds of prey with excellent eyesight.

Rowan, who was keeping a close eye on the situation, naturally received the news immediately. In fact, it was not uncommon for spaceships to re-enter the atmosphere; almost every day, several Transport Craft carrying personnel would travel to and from the planet's interior.

However, most of those Transport Craft were only small boats of twenty or thirty meters in length, with the largest being medium-sized ships of about fifty meters in length. Moreover, they were civilian vessels, equipped only with Close-In Weapon System to scare away birds.

What makes this standard-issue spaceship special is not only its length of over 100 meters, but also the fact that its cannons indicate it belongs to the combat order. It is much larger than a fighter jet, but smaller than a small warship; it could only be considered a super-small warship.

This seemingly ordinary Ultra-small Warship is actually far from ordinary. According to the intelligence obtained from Humins, this warship is extremely powerful, even capable of warp flight despite its small size, and at a considerable speed, making it one of the top-tier warships even among the Epoch Clan.

Furthermore, its protective capabilities are exceptionally strong. It is entirely made of a special synthetic metal, and its seemingly thin armor possesses protective capabilities far exceeding those of ordinary warships.

Among those special alloys, there is a particularly rare material that even the Star Sea Alliance, with its tens of thousands of star systems, has not produced much of.

Therefore, it cannot be deployed on a large scale. The reason why this small warship is so tiny is because this precious metal is too rare to build larger warships.

Such a sophisticated Ultra-small Warship is naturally not something ordinary people can ride; it is used by the elders of the Epoch Clan for short-distance travel or traversing the atmosphere. Its appearance indicates that there must be a flagship of an elder of the Epoch Clan nearby.

Rowan sighed inwardly, realizing that the speed of infiltrating the steel satellite needed to be increased; otherwise, it would be quite unreasonable to not even know that such a large and obvious elder flagship had appeared.
