Chapter 37
The Civilization of Cliff Tai

The combined effect of the two is not as simple as one plus one.

Just like how Wang Dong is now, the Battle Axe has already appeared in the star system of this civilization's home planet and is eyeing it.

However, they haven't noticed anything unusual.

This allows Wang Dong to enter the interspatial battlefield without having to immediately enter combat mode like other Spark warships.

Instead, he can calmly gather battlefield intelligence and formulate strategic tactics based on the actual situation.

If he encounters a highly dangerous interspatial battlefield, Wang Dong can choose to remain undetected and withdraw completely.

If he encounters an equally powerful opponent, Wang Dong has the advantage of first-mover.

As for the current situation where the enemy is weak and he is strong, he has ample time to devise better tactics to maximize his gains.

He no longer feels the awkwardness and helplessness he felt during his first entry into the interspatial battlefield.

“Activate the Sky Survey Radar and implement data information intrusion!”

Wang Dong calmly ordered.

The Sky Survey Radar is not limited to the functions of “target acquisition” and “fire control,” it also possesses the ability to collect data.

Combined with the powerful analysis and summarization capabilities of the onboard AI, as long as there is enough time, it can provide the commander with ample information.

For example, in the current star system.

Within each habitable planet, between planets, between planets and warships, and even between warships, there are countless communication signals and data streams.

Given enough time, the Sky Survey Radar can intercept these messages, and then analyze and summarize them using the onboard AI, compiling valuable intelligence.

There's no need to worry about language barriers.

In the interstellar age, this issue has already been solved using over a hundred methods.

From the initial “Civilization Dictionary” to the upgraded “Civilization Illustration,” and then to the various “Big Data Analysis” tools, countless methods have been developed.

After analyzing the languages and communication methods of over ten thousand different civilizations, the communication between two sides or even one-sided decryption is no longer a technical difficulty for most civilizations that use conventional communication methods.

After patiently waiting for only an hour, Wang Dong received detailed intelligence.

“Interspatial Civilization: Ya Tai Civilization, Civilization History 12060 years

Civilization Level: Level One Interstellar Civilization

Primary Energy Source: Nuclear Energy, Nuclear Fission, Large-Scale Nuclear Fusion

Sphere of Influence: 2 light-years, 3 habitable planets, 18 billion population

Fleet Combat Power: Battleships 20-48 points, Mothership 102 points

Language: Ya Tai Language

Civilization System: Monarchy

…”

Wang Dong skimmed through most of the information. Only a small amount of truly valuable information was considered for combat reference.

Based on the collected information, Wang Dong quickly started formulating a plan.

First, he assessed the Battle Axe's situation.

“The Battle Axe's only weapons are its main cannon and auxiliary cannon. Against this Level One civilization's warships, the main cannon is naturally a one-shot kill. Even the auxiliary cannon can instantly destroy them if it hits a vital point.

The Battle Axe's current ammo remaining is... main cannon ammo remaining: 123 rounds, auxiliary cannon ammo remaining: 2012.

A bit low.

I didn't expect to encounter such a large-scale opponent in the first interspatial battlefield.

The armor is only LV1. It doesn't matter for other parts, but it's important to avoid being hit too many times in the already damaged tail section.

Fortunately, the energy shield modules onboard the Battle Axe, after two upgrades, can play a significant role.

The planetary orbital cannons are not to be trifled with, and the two military fortress planets cannot be touched.”

Compared to the Battle Axe, which has a comprehensive combat power rating of LV6 and is considered overpowered, Level One interstellar civilizations appear somewhat weak.

For a civilization like the Ya Tai Civilization, which is at the initial stage of Level One interstellar civilization, they might pose a significant threat to Spark warships with a comprehensive combat power rating below LV5.

However, they would struggle against LV5 or higher.

A large amount of data shows that newly deployed LV0 Spark warships, if they don't understand the essence of "gou" (meaning patience, perseverance, and cunning), often have a high probability of being destroyed in the "interspatial battlefield."

It's not that LV0 Spark warships are weak.

The main reason is that the interspatial battlefield is always fought on the enemy's home ground, with the interspatial civilization holding a significant numerical advantage.

Hundreds of warships might attack your single ship.

If the energy shield's regeneration rate can't keep up, and the shield overloads, vital parts like the engine nozzle will be hit and you're finished.

Even a tiger cannot defeat a pack of wolves, let alone a brand new, inexperienced Spark warship.

Any reckless ship captain who charges into battle will often not last long.

Except for those "lucky ones" who happen to encounter small mining sites, observation posts, or remote colonies without armed defenses.

Most rookie Spark warships usually adopt the sixteen-character principle of “hide and observe, be cautious, hit and run, never turn back” during their first few entries into the "interspatial battlefield.”

They carefully gather some Source Points through small-scale attacks, which are used to strengthen their initial modules.

As the number of "interspatial battlefield" entries increases, the number of Source Points accumulated also grows, and the Spark warship becomes increasingly powerful.
