Chapter 1211: 1165, The Battle of the Second Defensive Line (Part 2) Chapter 1211: 1165, The Battle of the Second Defensive Line (Part 2) PS: I apologize; I’ve been truly busy for the past month, and my inspiration also waned. The following four chapters were published without completion. I will surely make up for them in the following days. If you see this line of text, please refresh the page in a couple of days to check. If this line is not here, then it is the revised version.

“Your Majesty, our reconnaissance airships have suffered significant damage and can no longer support subsequent scouting missions.” Mount Fuji Headquarters.

Manina still sat erect in the command center, opposite him was a digital map displaying the real-time dynamics of the reconnaissance airships.

Originally, the digital map showed 300 little red dots proceeding along their predetermined routes, but now these dots had all deviated from their paths. Even more dots had vanished, losing contact with the headquarters.

Upon hearing the report from Blue Devourer, Manina asked in a deep voice, “Blue Devourer, how many reconnaissance airships have we lost?”

The AI Blue Devourer immediately replied, “As of now, we’ve lost a total of 78 airships. The Blue Star People’s Demonic Plants such as ‘Ice Shooters’, ‘Corn Pitchers’, ‘Ice Watermelon Pitchers’, and ‘Clovers’ are too dense. The airships didn’t even complete 1% of their scouting mission.”

Manina sighed, “Forget it, order the remaining reconnaissance airships to return. They are essentially useless on the future battlefield.”

In reality, the reconnaissance airships weren’t that ineffectual. Even with Demonic Plants covering the ground, the airships were originally able to easily complete the scouting task.

The reconnaissance airships manufactured by the Skuru people had superior performance, capable of high-altitude operations. They could completely fly above the troposphere of Blue Star, undertaking scouting activities from an altitude of ten to twenty thousand meters.

From such high positions, the bullets of Demonic Plants couldn’t reach.

But now, with that golden defensive web overhead, the reconnaissance airships couldn’t fly high; one to two thousand meters was their limit.

The bullets of the Demonic Plants could completely reach the one to two thousand meters of altitude, which caused the reconnaissance airships to seem so powerless in the face of the threat from the Demonic Plants.

Now, the reconnaissance airships were utterly useless.

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

Since the reconnaissance airships were of no use, he could only let the high-ranking powerhouses take on the scouting mission.

The bullets of Demonic Plants couldn’t break the defenses of the Seventh Order cultivators, nor would they be much affected by the slowing effects. The fierce winds from the “Clovers” hardly impacted them at all.

So by sending out high-ranking powerhouses, the exterior area should be able to be explored.

At the same time, Manina once more instructed the AI Blue Devourer, “Blue Devourer, also inform the elder ancestor and His Excellency Pu Langte that the three of us will go and take a look at the golden defensive web.”

Before, they had been sealed off by the Blue Star People’s first line of defense, unable to reach the golden defensive web in the sky without breaking through.

Now that the first line of defense was breached, it was about time for them to see for themselves what it was.

…

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

Each of them carried scouting devices, able to capture everything within their fields of vision.

Meanwhile, Manina, Manina III, and Pu Langte, all three, ascended simultaneously, flying more than 3,000 meters upwards, approaching the golden defensive web.

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

However, besides Cao Cao on the other side, none of the other Blue Star God Level had come.

“Hehe, Cao Cao, we meet again,” Pu Langte greeted with a feigned smile.

“Yes, we meet again.” Prime Minister Cao Cao smiled and waved his hand, “I guessed you’d come to ‘Tarxin Defense Network’ to have a look, I just didn’t expect you’d come only now, a bit slower than I thought.”

“This web is named ‘Tarxin Defense Network’?” All three focused their gaze on the defensive web.

“You didn’t know?” Prime Minister Cao Cao seemed surprised: “The web has been in place for so long; I thought you had already figured it out. I didn’t expect your information-gathering capabilities to be so poor!”

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

He flew next to the Tarxin Defense Network and placed his hand directly on it.

The golden panel of the defense web contacted his palm, but Pu Langte felt no backlash.

To his touch, it felt like touching a smooth mirror surface, extremely smooth. However, this “mirror” was much harder than glass; he pressed it lightly, and the golden panel didn’t budge.

Seeing Pu Langte’s action, Prime Minister Cao Cao smiled, “This is the Holy Silver Federation’s defensive web specifically designed to counter the cosmic insect race. No joke, just this web alone could defend you for hundreds of years without a problem!”

“Hundreds of years? What joke is that?” Both Manina and Manina III on the side expressed disbelief; they thought Prime Minister Cao Cao was completely talking nonsense.

Actually, it wasn’t because they had already discerned the defensive capabilities of the Tarxin Defense Network, but because they knew that the Blue Star People could not possibly acquire a defensive weapon that could defend against them for hundreds of years.

After all, the “Principle of Fairness in Warfare” was in place, and what Su Yu spent thousands of credits to exchange, no matter how powerful, couldn’t drastically upset the balance of the whole war.
