In the midst of the frantic efforts to repair the Ark, the days passed one by one. Yang Hao, Li Qiang, and Lin Xiao led the crew members, working tirelessly day and night. They scavenged usable parts from the wreckage of abandoned warships, disassembling and reassembling them in an attempt to repair the power systems and weaponry. Lin Xiao, meanwhile, delved into the fusion technology between the alien relic and the Ark's systems day and night, hoping to unearth more functions and enhance the Ark's capabilities.
One day, while analyzing cosmic scan data, Lin Xiao suddenly shouted excitedly, "Yang Hao, Li Qiang, come here quickly!" The two rushed to the control center, and Lin Xiao pointed to a flickering bright spot on the screen, saying, "I've discovered a celestial body that might be a habitable planet! According to preliminary scans, it has a stable atmosphere, liquid water, and possibly even a suitable ecosystem."
A glimmer of hope flashed in Yang Hao's eyes, but he quickly regained his composure. "Don't get too excited yet. We're not sure if this planet is truly suitable for survival, and with the Ark's current power, reaching there won't be easy." Despite the numerous difficulties, this was still a glimmer of hope for humanity's continuation, so they decided to take a risk and give it a try.
The Ark adjusted its course and slowly headed towards the habitable planet. Along the way, dangers in the universe lurked like shadows. A small asteroid belt lay ahead, with a dense swarm of asteroids raining down like raindrops. Yang Hao quickly ordered the activation of the defense system, with laser cannons and energy shields fully engaged. Lasers shot out, shattering the approaching asteroids, while the energy shields resisted the impacts of the few that slipped through, emitting dazzling lights.
After barely making it through the asteroid belt, the Ark encountered a powerful cosmic radiation storm. The radiation surged like a tidal wave, crashing against the Ark's energy shields. The shield strength continuously dropped, and the alarm sounded again. Lin Xiao urgently adjusted the shield energy distribution, while Li Qiang led the crew members in repairing the damaged areas. Yang Hao stared intently at the storm, his mind racing as he thought of a countermeasure. He noticed a certain pattern in the energy fluctuations of the storm and instructed Lin Xiao to adjust the shield frequency according to this pattern to better resist the radiation.
After a grueling resistance, the Ark finally survived the radiation storm. With everyone's anticipation, the habitable planet drew closer. As the Ark entered the planet's orbit, through the portholes, they saw a vast expanse of blue ocean and lush greenery on the continents. But before they could catch their breath, a series of energy beams shot up from the surface and headed towards the Ark.
