Shortly after they arrived at their destination, the situation outside suddenly changed drastically. -... The Covenant Tracking Fleet Command, which had not waited for the infiltration ship to report for several hours, finally couldn't help but be curious and ordered the entire fleet to jump to the planetary system where Chamhak was located.
Since it is a fleet-level group jump, the space disturbance caused upon arrival is very large for ship-based instruments and lasts for a long time, so they are almost detected by the space-time fleet at the moment they jump here.
: "It was discovered that multiple jumps reached the target, the initial position is expected to be 080.092, 5 to 20 astronomical units away from us..." Inside the bridge of the Pergasos, a series of latest discoveries were quickly reported to Demien, who took over as the commander of the fleet.
After hearing such a report, the latter sighed silently, lamenting that such emergencies always seemed to happen after he took over command. Chen Chao would not have encountered such inexplicable unplanned emergencies when commanding the fleet.
Like many people on the expedition team, Damien was not very supportive of the plan to explore the ruins of Chamhak. His main concern was the situation he encountered at this time. This was the home court of the Covenant. If one of them was not done well, their fleet would be beaten up.
But since he had arrived here, he still hoped that things would happen as Chen Chao expected. Unexpectedly, not long after Chen Chao took his guests away from the fleet, the situation he was most worried about happened.
: "Damn it, send the message to the captain and inform him that we must evacuate immediately. At the same time, the second battle group is transferred here to attract the enemy's attention as much as possible..." Demien issued this series of instructions before the enemy's forces and heading information was confirmed.
He didn't believe that the large fleet that appeared in this galaxy at this time would belong to any other force except the Covenant, and it would never be a coincidence that the fleet of the Covenant suddenly appeared in this galaxy. They had previously confirmed the reconnaissance and navigation plans of all Covenant ships in nearby hundreds of light years, and this fleet is definitely an unplanned existence.
After receiving the order from Demien, an emergency notice message was immediately transmitted to Chen Chao and his group on the surface of Chamhak. At this time, Chen Chao was just about to take the delegation members into the ruins to visit. After seeing the news, he immediately frowned.
Exploring the remains of Chamhak should have been the safest mission, but he didn't expect to be discovered after staying here for less than a day. After thinking about it for more than ten seconds, he finally gave up his original plan and decided to withdraw all troops as soon as possible and leave the galaxy.
But this does not mean that he will give up his plan to excavate the remains. Although the Covenant fleet has arrived here unexpectedly. Their fleet must avoid this head-on conflict, but this does not mean that they cannot continue to excavate the remains.
After sending most of the incombatable members of the delegation to the shuttle on the return trip and issuing an order for the entire ground troops to retreat, Shen Chao himself took the guard members and several Spartan soldiers, including the Chief of the Master, into the depths of the ruins.
The ruins here will not stop them, such as the "ancient humans". Although the Chiefs and the Chiefs are not identified as friendly targets, they will not be attacked by the security system of the ruins accompanied by Shen Chao and others.
As long as they enter the depths of the ruins, the security system of the ruins will automatically close the passage when they come in, making it impossible for the Covenant personnel to enter. If they want to leave, Chen Chao and the others can always safely evacuate through a newly opened space-time "gate".
Under such arrangements, other teams that were performing missions on the surface of Chamhak quickly abandoned equipment such as uncarryable drones, and all combatants boarded the shuttle and retreated to the fleet as quickly as possible.
At the same time, Chen Chao and the others finally entered the huge ruins and explored the heritage left by ancient humans. The passage in the ruins was very tall, at least ten meters high, and it looked like they were designed for giants.
All the building materials in the passage look stone-like. If the previous archaeological team had not confirmed that many stone walls had mechanical ‘sex’ institutions behind them. Many sections of the road had preset traps, it would be hard to believe that this was a building left by a highly evolved interstellar civilization.
While Shen Chao and his friends were exploring the remains, the space-time fleet was tensely responding to the current situation. After rushing to this planetary system, the fleet of Star Covenant did not waste time searching, but went directly to Chamhak, who was trapped in communication interruption.
Although the second battle group attracted the firepower of some of the Star Covenant warships, the opponent seemed to see that they were "temptation" bait, and the main fleet was still rushing towards Chamhak. At this time, the surface withdrawal operation was not completely over.
Most of the teams had withdrawn from the Pergasus, but according to their expectations, before the last batch of ships retreated, the Star Covenant warships would enter the combat radius of both sides. Head-on combat is inevitable.
: "All the first battle group should pay attention. We will take the enemy within 2 minutes. All the battle plan 014 is adopted, and it is the first priority to save yourself. All warships must ensure that the transition engine is in the hot engine state..." Damien issued this series of combat orders with a little nervousness.
At this time, Sikong found that the enemy's origin and quantity information had been determined, and the invading Star Covenant tracking fleet had nearly 100 warships inside, which were far exceeding them in terms of quantity and firepower.
Although the space-time fleet can gain unilateral advantages in the early stage of the battle and even have the ability to severely damage the opponent's fleet. However, they cannot fight here for too long, otherwise casualties will inevitably be inevitable.
The actual battle began later than Demien expected. After finally rushing to the periphery of Chamhak and encountering the space-time fleet, the other party seemed very surprised. He was so surprised that he did not fire at them immediately, but instead made nearly a hundred Covenant warships lined up in a wide battle formation to form a confrontation with them.
The two sides did not fight immediately. This was really beyond the expectations of Damien and everyone else in the fleet, but they did not delve into the reason here, but instead used this gap to quickly retract the last group of people, and then collectively jumped out of the galaxy in front of each other's eyes.
The reason why the Covenant's tracking fleet hesitated and did not fire at them immediately was because the Space-Time Fleet was mistaken for a new interstellar race fleet, because the previous "interaction" with the Covenant was very short and no identification information was left for the other party.
Therefore, there is no ship style of the space-time fleet in the Covenant's database, and it is not possible to identify them as enemies. During the navigation, they were not detected by them until a very close distance. This made the commander of the Covenant's tracking fleet make a judgment that the other party's ship's technical level is significantly higher than that of their own, which allows both sides to avoid an almost destined "communication" fire.
While the time and space fleet escaped, Chen Chao and the others also went deep into the core area of the ruins. Due to the need to collect data, Chen Chao temporarily borrowed Cortana's chip from the Chief of Staff to collect information on some hidden terminals along the way.
At one of the intersections, they suddenly encountered an "accident". A sudden stone wall blocked Chen Chao and the Chief, and separated them into two teams. However, due to the powerful communication technology, the connection between them was not interrupted.
: "This must be some kind of defense mechanism in the ruins. Don't worry, I will open another road..." Chen Chao used communication equipment to comfort the magistrate and the other side of the wall, but in fact, the accident itself was arranged by him.
A team of scientific research teams that entered the ruins before had entered the core area of the ruins and gained control of the security system. Compared with the security system they discovered on the ring belt before, the security system in the ancient human remains here is not as advanced.
Compared with the fully automatic security mode directly controlled by AI like 343 Crime Fire ‘Flower’, the security system here is more like a semi-automatic mode. As long as there are humans who follow the system's recognition to enter the control room, they can easily obtain control of the system.
Chen Chao just asked the team members in the control room to temporarily adjust the settings and suddenly blocked a thick stone "door" between him and the Chief. Of course, he had no intention of harming the other party, but just wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to talk to Cortana.
At this time, Cortana's chip was on a terminal not far from the stone gate. When Shen Chao was talking to the Chief of Staff, her holographic image was watching with her arms holding her back, as if she could see Chen Chao's intentions.
: "The appearance of this wall is not an accident, right? If so, the terminal I am currently in will not be without any warning." After Shen Chao hangs up the communication with the Chief Secretary, Cortana's holographic image leans against a virtual wall, raised his eyebrows and asked Chen Chao not far away. Although she was asking, her tone was completely affirmative.
: "Yes, this is not an accident. I just need a few minutes to talk to you." Chen Chao said as he opened the opaque mask on his helmet and gave a positive answer in the face of the right one.
He knew that Cortana could detect lie through facial expressions and skin color changes. In their brief conversation, both sides needed great mutual trust to reach some useful results, so he hoped to show his honesty through this move so that Cortana could see that he was not lying and then make some breakthroughs.
Before, Chen Chao had been trying to recruit the Chief of the Sect, but both the first attempt on the ring belt or the verbal test before and after entering the ruins ended in failure. As the return date approached, Chen Chao gradually realized that perhaps the breakthrough had never been on the Chief of the Sect.
The Chief of the Master himself may be infinitely loyal to Unsc, but according to the plot in the game series, he cares more about the people he cares about. He even disobeys the orders of his superiors.
