“Your Majesty, a large number of scouting airships have been damaged and can no longer support subsequent reconnaissance missions,” AI Blue Devourer reported to Manina at the Mount Fuji headquarters.

Manina was still seated in the command center, opposite him was an electronic map that displayed the real-time movements of the scouting airship fleet.

Originally, there were 300 little red dots on the electronic map moving along their predetermined routes, but now these dots had all veered off course. Even more, a number of dots had disappeared from contact with headquarters.

Hearing Blue Devourer’s report, Manina asked in a deep voice, “Blue Devourer, how many scouting airships have we lost?”

AI Blue Devourer immediately answered, “As of now, we have lost a total of 78 vessels. The Demonic Plants planted by the Blue Star People, such as the ‘Ice Shooters,’ ‘Corn Pitchers,’ ‘Ice Watermelon Pitchers,’ and ‘Clovers’ are too dense, and the airships have not even completed 1% of their scouting mission.”

Manina sighed, “Forget it, have the remaining scouting airships return. Scouting airships are completely useless on the future battlefield.”

In fact, scouting airships were not entirely useless. Even with Demonic Plants everywhere, the airships could have easily completed the scouting mission.

The scouting airships made by the Skrull people had superior capabilities, capable of operating at extremely high altitudes; they could fly above the stratosphere of Blue Star, conducting reconnaissance missions from heights of twenty thousand meters or so.

At such heights, the bullets of the Demonic Plants couldn’t reach them.

But now there was that golden barrier above their heads. Because of the existence of this golden giant net, scouting airships couldn’t fly too high, one to two thousand meters was the limit.

And the bullets of the Demonic Plants could easily reach one to two thousand meters into the sky, hence the scouting airships appeared so powerless against the threat of the Demonic Plants.

Now, scouting airships could be considered entirely useless.

Manina thought for a moment and then instructed, “Blue Devourer, notify Langqi to send twenty Seventh Order cultivators to complete the reconnaissance mission.”

Since scouting airships were of no use, he could only let high-ranking practitioners undertake the scouting mission.

The bullets of the Demonic Plants couldn’t penetrate the defenses of the Seventh Order cultivators, and the slowing effects were almost ineffective on them; the wild winds blown by the ‘Clovers’ had even less impact on them.

Therefore, sending out high-ranking practitioners should allow them to explore the outside area thoroughly.

Meanwhile, Manina once again instructed AI Blue Devourer, “Blue Devourer, also notify the ancestor and Your Excellency Pu Langte that the three of us will go take a look at the golden giant net.”

They had been sealed off by the Blue Star People’s first line of defense previously and couldn’t touch the golden barrier in the sky without breaking through that line of defense.

Now that the first line of defense had been breached, it was time for them to see what this thing really was.

…

Ten minutes later, twenty Seventh Order Skrull cultivators flew out of the first line of defense, heading in all directions.

They each carried scouting devices, which could capture everything within sight.

At the same time, Manina, Manina III, and Pu Langte simultaneously ascended, flying over 3,000 meters up, approaching the golden giant net.

But just as they neared the golden barrier, Pu Langte immediately noticed that on the other side of the net, Cao Cao, the God Level Peak adversary from Blue Star, was smiling at them.

However, only Cao Cao was there; the other Blue Star God Level adversaries hadn’t come.

“Heh heh, Cao Cao, we meet again,” Pu Langte greeted with a forced smile.

“Yes, we meet again,” Prime Minister Cao Cao smiled and waved, “I guessed you’d come take a look at the ‘Tarxin Defense Network’; I just didn’t expect you’d take so long, slower than I anticipated.”

“This net is called the ‘Tarxin Defense Network’?” Manina and his companions all focused their gaze on the barrier.

“You didn’t know?” Prime Minister Cao Cao was somewhat surprised, “The net has been in place for so long, I thought you would have thoroughly investigated it by now. It seems your information-gathering capabilities are rather poor!”

“We don’t have many channels to obtain such information,” Pu Langte completely disregarded the derision in Prime Minister Cao Cao’s tone.

He flew next to the Tarxin Defense Network and pressed his hand against it directly.

His palm touched the golden panel of the barrier, and Pu Langte did not feel any backlash.

To his touch, it felt like handling an ordinary piece of glass, very smooth. However, this “glass” was much harder than actual glass; he pressed it lightly, and the golden panel did not budge.

Seeing Pu Langte’s actions, Prime Minister Cao Cao smiled and said, “This is a defense network specially designed by the Holy Silver Federation to combat the cosmic insect race, and no joke, this net alone could keep you out for hundreds of years without any problem!”

“Hundreds of years? What joke is this!” Manina and Manina III both showed disbelief; they felt that Prime Minister Cao Cao was completely talking nonsense.

The disbelief was not because they had discerned the defensive capabilities of the Tarxin Defense Network, but because they knew the Blue Star People could not possibly have obtained a defense weapon that could block them for hundreds of years.

After all, the “Principle of Warfare Fairness” was in place, and whatever Su Yu had exchanged for with thousands of academic credits couldn’t possibly severely affect the overall balance of the war.

Therefore, the defense network was highly likely the kind that they could breach if they just put in the effort.
