Chapter 1223: 1164, Change the mode of investigation Chapter 1223: 1164, Change the mode of investigation “Your Majesty, a large number of scouting airships have been damaged and can no longer support subsequent surveillance missions,” AI Blue Devourer reported to Manina at the Mount Fuji headquarters.
Manina still sat upright in the command center, directly in front of him was an electronic map displaying the real-time movements of the reconnaissance airship fleet.
Originally, the electronic map showed 300 little red dots moving along predetermined routes–the dots representing the reconnaissance airships he had dispatched.
But now, these red dots had all deviated from their course, and quite a few had disappeared and lost all contact with the command headquarters.
Hearing Blue Devourer’s report, Manina asked in a grave voice, “Blue Devourer, how many reconnaissance airships have we lost?”
AI Blue Devourer immediately replied, “Up to now, we have lost a total of 78 airships.
The ‘Ice Shooter’, ‘Corn Pitcher’, ‘Ice Watermelon Pitcher’, and ‘Clover’ planted by the Blue Star People are too densely packed. The airships can’t withstand such concentrated attacks, and not only are they heavily damaged, but the reconnaissance mission is less than 1% complete.”
“Is it so difficult?” Manina sighed upon hearing this.
He shook his head with a stern face and said, “Forget it, have the remaining reconnaissance airships return. The reconnaissance airships have lost their function. We will change our strategy and scout in a different way.”
In fact, the reconnaissance airships weren’t that useless. Even with Demonic Plants everywhere, the airships could still easily complete reconnaissance missions.
The reconnaissance airships made by the Skuru people were made of excellent materials; their sturdy hulls constructed from high polymer materials could support high-altitude operations.
The airships could fly above the troposphere of Blue Star, reaching high altitudes of tens of thousands of meters to carry out reconnaissance activities. At such high altitudes, the bullets of the Demonic Plants couldn’t reach them.
But the situation was different now; there was that golden defense net above the reconnaissance airships.
Because of the presence of this golden net, the reconnaissance airships could not fly too high; a couple of thousand meters was the limit.
At such low altitudes, the bullets of the Demonic Plants could easily hit them, and most Third Order plants didn’t even need the wind assistance of the ‘Clover’ to easily reach a couple of thousand meters.
It was precisely for this reason that the reconnaissance airships were so powerless under the threat of the Demonic Plants and were heavily destroyed.
As of now, the reconnaissance airships were completely useless, and they had to adopt other methods to continue reconnaissance.
So, what method should be used?
After pondering for a moment, Manina ordered AI Blue Devourer, “Blue Devourer, inform Langqi to send 20 Stage Seven cultivators to complete the reconnaissance mission.”
If reconnaissance airships were useless, he could only send high-ranking powerhouses to take on the reconnaissance tasks.
While Stage Seven cultivators flying at an altitude of a couple thousand meters could still be hit by the bullets of Demonic Plants,
compared to the reconnaissance airships, these ordinary bullets couldn’t break through the defenses of Stage Seven cultivators, and the slowing effect was almost non-existent. The fierce winds blown out by ‘Clovers’ had no effect on them either.
Therefore, sending out Seventh Order powerhouses would surely allow for the reconnaissance to be completed smoothly.
At the same time, Manina once again instructed AI Blue Devourer, “Blue Devourer, also inform the Old Ancestor and Your Excellency Pu Langte that the three of us will go see the golden defense net together.”
Now was the time to take a look at that golden defense net.
In the past, they had not made contact with the golden defense net because they were sealed by the Blue Star People’s first line of defense, and they couldn’t touch it without breaking through the line.
Now that the first line of defense was broken, it was time for the Skuru people to find out what exactly this golden defense net was.
…
10 minutes later, 20 Seventh Order Skuru cultivators flew out of the first defensive line, scattering in all directions.
Each of them carried three or four surveillance devices of various sizes, capable of capturing everything within their field of view.
At the same time, Manina, Manina III, and Pu Langte ascended into the sky, flying more than 2000 meters upwards toward the golden net above.
But just as they approached the golden net, Pu Langte immediately noticed that on the other side of it, Blue Star’s God Level Peak Cao Cao was smiling at them.
However, only Cao Cao was there; the other Blue Star God Level cultivators weren’t present.
“Hehe, Cao Cao, we meet again,” Pu Langte slowly closed in, wearing a strained smile as he greeted him through the defense network.
“Yes, we meet again,” Prime Minister Cao Cao replied calmly. Smiling, he waved his hand at the trio, “I knew you would come to see the ‘Tarxin Defense Network’. What do you think? Magnificent, isn’t it?”
With another wave of his hand, the golden defense net vibrated like a plucked string, emitting a pleasant humming sound.
Manina’s gaze sharpened, “The ‘Tarxin Defense Network’? This net is called the ‘Tarxin Defense Network’?”
“Oh? You don’t know?” Prime Minister Cao Cao seemed a bit surprised, “This net has been in place for so long, I had thought you had already thoroughly investigated its name and details. I didn’t expect your information gathering to be so poor!”
“We are not as formidable as you imagine,” Pu Langte completely ignored the mockery in Prime Minister Cao Cao’s tone.
He flew next to the Tarxin Defense Network and placed his hand directly onto it.
The golden panel of the defense network touched his palm, but Pu Langte didn’t feel any abnormalities.
To his touch, it felt like a piece of ordinary glass, very smooth.
Yet this “mirror” was far more solid than glass; he lightly pressed on it, and the golden panel didn’t budge at all.
Seeing Pu Langte’s actions, Prime Minister Cao Cao continued to smile and said, “This is a defense network specially designed by the Holy Silver Federation to counter the cosmic insect race. I’m not joking when I say that this net alone could defend against you for hundreds of years with no problem!”
“Hundreds of years? You must be joking!” Both Manina and Manina III were incredulous; they thought it was complete nonsense.
It wasn’t because they had already determined the actual defensive capability of the Tarxin Defense Network, but because they knew that the Blue Star People couldn’t possibly have a defense network that would hold them off for hundreds of years.
After all, the “Principle of War Fairness” was in place, and the items Su Yu had exchanged for thousands of credits, no matter how powerful, could not severely disrupt the balance of the entire war.
Based on their estimations, the defensive power of this network–although not weak–wasn’t something they couldn’t breach.
With a bit of effort, they should be able to break through the defense network without much cost.
…
“Manina, try testing the strength of the defense network,” Pu Langte gestured subtly to Manina in front of the network.
“Understood,” Manina acknowledged.
He immediately casted a Seventh Order Spell on the spot–[Eye of Destruction].
Bright red, blistering beams of light burst forth from his staff, striking the golden panel directly in front of him like a laser.
Zzz–zzz–
The collision and friction of the beam against the golden panel produced a piercing sound, along with a series of sparks.
But this instantaneous spell failed to penetrate the golden panel.
The bright red beam continued for about half a minute. During this half minute, the cumulative damage inflicted by the beam was comparable to Manina’s full-power attack.
Yet the golden panel remained intact, with no significant change in its outward appearance.
Only a series of bright red marks, confirming that the spell had hit, appeared on the panel where the beam had passed.
