As for the energy shield, it recovers 3% of the shield value every 30s. With the current Dark Matter Energy Shield Generator, that equates to a recovery of 4120 points per second. As long as external damage doesn’t exceed this value, the [Dark Matter Energy Shield Generator] will never overload.

Moreover, this is still a lv30 [Dark Matter Energy Shield Generator]. If the level of this component continues to rise in the future, this recovery value will increase further.

Having clarified all this in his mind, a satisfied Song Chi was ready to continue enhancing other components on the Cang Qiong that were still at Second Rank.

Currently, he had over 1700 strands of Second-Rank Floating Land Origin at his disposal, which was enough to enhance several other components to Third Rank.

But before he could take action, something occurred to him, and he stopped again.

It wasn’t that something unexpected had happened on the outside. Song Chi’s gaze was fixed on the engine components of the Cang Qiong.

The [Shadowcapture Antimatter Overstate Engine] component was acquired from his grandfather and had been operating on the Cang Qiong for nearly a year. Originally, it was sufficient to maintain a balance in the Spectral Energy supply on the Cang Qiong, but this balance was disrupted with the installation and enhancement to lv30 of the red component [Neutron Star Core Armor].

The [Shadowcapture Antimatter Overstate Engine], also at an enhancement level of lv30, currently provided 1500 points of energy per second and consumed 180 points per second.

Together with the 350 points per second for the [Dark Matter Energy Shield Generator] and 500 points per second for the [Neutron Star Core Armor], the consumption of just these three components had already reached 1030 points per second.

Besides these three, there were numerous other components on the Cang Qiong at the moment.

Therefore, the energy supply from the [Shadowcapture Antimatter Overstate Engine] was no longer sufficient.

Resignedly, Song Chi could only enhance this Purple Engine first, and after five consecutive enhancements, it reached lv35.

He actually wanted to keep enhancing it, but there wasn’t enough Third Rank Floating Land Origin left, only the last 7 strands, although there were still 55 pieces of Titanium Crystal. Find adventures at empire

Shadowcapture Antimatter Overstate Engine lv35

Quality: Purple

Feature: Extra 85% increase in Energy Supply Efficiency

Consumption: 205/s

Energy Supply: 2081/s

Post-Overload Buffer: 20 minutes

Energy Pool: 65000 Points (can store 65000 points of energy)

Convertible: {Shadowcapture Level Reactor}

UpRank Requirement: 35 strands of Floating Land Origin (Third Rank), 35000 Spectral Energy Points, 30 pieces of Life Core (Third Rank), 21 pieces of Titanium Crystal.

With the enhancement to lv35, its energy supply reached 2081 Spectral Energy Points per second, which was just enough to provide a slight surplus again.

However, the energy pool only increased from 60000 to 65000 points. The other components weren’t a big issue, but for the two red components, this was still not enough to support their continued enhancement, which was a nagging concern for Song Chi.

He also had to stop enhancing the Second Rank components, fearing that carelessness could lead to another situation of insufficient engine energy supply.

"Sigh, when I think about it, the engine needs to be replaced too..."

Truth be told, Song Chi felt a bit frustrated at this moment. With the Zhu Tian Ruins Market at his disposal, he was earning money a hundred times faster than other Torch Ship Captains of the same rank, but he still often felt as if resources were insufficient.

At this moment, he finally understood completely why so many Torch Ship Captains were stuck at a particular rank for decades or even centuries.

The individual combat power of the Torch Warships was indeed formidable within the Shattered Starry Sea, but it came at the cost of burning vast amounts of resources.

ps: Two chapters combined; there is no more for tonight.

Also, after midnight, it’ll be April. Let me pre-emptively claim the essential monthly tickets you all have.

Well... you wouldn’t want to see me on my knees begging, right? *witty dog head*
