Chapter 314 305 spoils of war
Continue your adventure with My Virtual Library Empire
It was taken for granted by Bai Zhongqi that Su Beisi, the Teizene prince, would be killed. Throughout history, Teizenes have never disclosed any information about their civilization to the enemy. Regardless of how detestable these Teizenes might be, they possess a certain pride, and upon capture by the enemy, they would seek to commit suicide rather than endure any harsh torture or technologically advanced interrogation methods, which prove useless against them.
The Deep Sleep System was also attempted by the Iridium Star people for use in interrogations. However, in situations where the subject is highly vigilant, it results in the collapse of the virtual reality environment created by the consciousness, thus failing to yield any intelligence.
Moreover, in a desperate last stand, the Teizenes entered their assault landing capsules, attempting to draw the battle to the surface of the planet, effectively abandoning a large number of their warships. Although practically all of the Teizene warships were severely damaged, Bai Zhongqi immediately dispatched bionic human suicide squads to board and take control of some of them, securing vital intelligence preserved on these ships.
Even as the Teizenes tried to blow up the warships and destroy the data in the end, their technology in relevant fields was still somewhat inferior to that of the Iridium Star people, and Bai Zhongqi was able to obtain many useful things, such as the shield array's technological devices and operational logs of the Teizene warships' various equipment.
"Your Majesty, this time we have captured 27 Teizene warships, including 11 of their main battle ships. Linyin and the team from the Scientific Research Institute have already begun a thorough search of these warships. If we're lucky, we should be able to recover some useful items," Zero said, visibly elated after the victory, with obvious joy in his eyes.
Even Bai Zhongqi himself was very excited and happy, although he had been quite confident before the battle. Even if the two strategic fleet groups and the defense ring could not stop the enemy, he still had the ultimate ace up his sleeve—the Homeland Titan.
True Titan-class ships can only be built by high-level civilizations!
Although the Homeland Titan could only be considered a lower-end version of a Titan-class ship in many respects, just in terms of firepower density and size, it had already surpassed many high-level civilization's Titan-class ships.
Linyin still looked somewhat upset, "If I could have completed it an hour earlier, the situation might have been better."
Bai Zhongqi shook his head, "Everyone is fighting in their own way. The soldiers of the Universe Army are one kind, you are another, and even BBY dancing in the sky three kilometers high is another way. Each effort is done with all their might and deserves respect."
Speaking of BBY, Linyin actually showed a smile, "The BBY sisters are so pretty, they almost made me swoon."
Bai Zhongqi was slightly embarrassed and had to change the subject, asking, "How is the research on the Teizenes' Shield Array coming along?"
Linyin replied, "We got hold of the actual devices, which are somewhat damaged, but my mentor is an expert in this area. It should be no problem to restore and even improve upon them."
Bai Zhongqi was also pleased, as reaping the spoils of war had always been his favorite part of playing games. Now, in reality, it felt just as good. He was mostly unimpressed with the technology from the Teizene warships, save for the Shield Array, which could provide a leap in advancement for the Star Alliance Fleet.
In a larger-scale fleet formation, the defense of the Star Alliance Fleet could be doubled, and this would offer a greater advantage in head-to-head fleet battles.
A key factor in warfare between two civilizations is the capture of the opponent's critical technology. However, often the enemy civilization is of a lower level or not sufficiently developed, leaving little to harvest.
Bai Zhongqi then said to Linyin, "Prepare your methods for Anti-shield Sharing. The first wave of invading Teizene fleets allowed us to eliminate the most dangerous part, but they still have nearly a thousand warships crossing the spatial barrier to reach the Danlu Interstellar Cloud. The methods of Anti-shield Sharing won't be needed here, but Commander Xu could make good use of them."@@@@
