It took more than two months. On August 21, the Skrulls occupied all nine lines of defense.
Occupying 9 lines of defense means that the Skrulls occupy the entire Neon Kingdom's Honshu Island and the nearby waters. Beyond that is the Blue Star people's last line of defense - the tower defense network.
Now, the Blue Star human troops have withdrawn outside the tower defense network.
Relying on the defensive capabilities of the defense network, the Blue Star people will make the final resistance outside the defense network.
…
At 3 pm on August 21st, in the Blue Star Human Base behind the southern hole of the Tower Fire Defense Network, Chairman Hu Jing was chatting with Su Yu wordlessly.
Chairman Hu Jing is responsible for the logistics work of the entire war. He is so busy that he has not slept for more than two months;
Su Yu was responsible for commanding the entire war, and he didn't sleep for more than two months.
But Su Yu is a peak god-level expert after all, and he is still in high spirits even if he hasn't slept.
Inside the headquarters, Chairman Hu Jing watched the flashing red dots on the screen. This was the latest update on the Skrull army's attack.
Currently, the Skrull army has fully entered the ninth line of defense.
When the Skrulls finish resting, the war between the two sides will officially begin!
"The Skrulls are quite fast, but this is much better than we planned!" Chairman Hu Jing smiled at Su Yu: "It has been 82 days since the war began, and it is only now that the Skrulls are approaching the tower defense network.
This is a big relief for us!”
"Yes! Thanks to the 'Sea Planting Project'." Su Yu said with a smile.
In these two months, the magical flora planted by the "Sea Planting Project" have really helped!
According to Su Yu's estimation, without the "Sea Planting Project", it would only take the Skrulls 20 days at most to break through the nine lines of defense, and the troops would be directed towards the tower defense network!
But now, with the massive amount of demonized plants in the "Sea Planting Project", they delayed it for 82 days!
These are quite precious two months.
In the two months since they were dragged out, they have made more complete preparations. They have done better in terms of military dispatch on the front line and resource supply in the rear, and they are more confident in dealing with the Skrulls.
"Yes, thanks to the demonized flora, we have gained more than two months." Speaker Hu Jing folded his arms slightly relaxedly and leaned gently on the comfortable gray leather chair: "Because these two months
, now the public sentiment around the world has stabilized a lot, which makes our logistics work not so passive."
"Indeed." Su Yu nodded in agreement.
Although Su Yu focused most of his energy on combat command on the front line, he also had some knowledge of the sentiments of the people in the rear.
Two months have passed, and the mood of ordinary people in society is still very stable.
Everyone was very panicked in the first few days.
In the first few days of the war, the streets were filled with fearful people, public security was in chaos, and the crime rate soared.
But now, the public has clearly seen the Skrulls pulling their hips. It takes more than two months to clean up the demonized plants. The Blue Star United Defense Force has not suffered any major losses, and people's emotions are naturally much more stable.
Now, human society in the rear is prosperous.
Because of technological advancements such as breakthroughs in controllable nuclear fusion, people's living standards have improved by leaps and bounds, and everyone can enjoy a very superior life.
It's just that the wartime system is still in place, and ordinary residents still have to provide most of their production output to the front line. Otherwise, the lives of the people in the rear are no less than paradise.
But even though most of the production output has been sent to the front lines, people's lives are still very good, especially much better than before the war started.
So the social level is very stable, and there is peace and tranquility everywhere.
A stable social environment also makes Speaker Hu Jing's logistical work easier, and it is much better than a turbulent society.
"I just hope that after the official decisive battle, the social level can continue to be so stable." Speaker Hu Jing looked up at the ceiling and murmured.
"This is not difficult, Chairman Hu." Su Yu picked up the cup on the table in front of him, took a sip of tea, and responded: "As long as we do a good job on the front line and seal the enemy within the tower defense network, at the social level,
There won't be any big problems.
And I firmly believe that we can hold on. This is not only the last line of defense, but also the ultimate barrier that we have spent a lot of energy to build. It will definitely not be..."
Before Su Yu finished speaking, Speaker Hu Jing waved his hand and interrupted: "Don't raise the flag yet, just do it properly. There is no need to say it out loud."
Then he sat up straight on the leather seat, changed the topic, and asked: "Let's talk about something else. Regarding the 'AI Blue Whale', is it still sleeping? Is there any sign of waking up?
"
When Speaker Hu Jing mentioned the AI Blue Whale, Su Yu's face immediately darkened.
He shook his head helplessly: "No, the blue whale shows no signs of waking up. It is no different from when it was first upgraded. No one knows when it will complete the upgrade."
In the past two months, the biggest pain point of the Blue Star United Defense Force is that the AI Blue Whale upgrade cannot be used.
Because the AI Blue Whale cannot be used, Blue Star Humanity has to let many senior executives devote their energy to logistics management.
For example, top managers such as Speaker Hu Jing, Political Commissar Zhang, Chika Fujiwara, etc. are all busy with logistics.
It is their hard work and exhaustive thinking that allows the entire logistics work to run in an orderly manner and prevent it from collapsing due to the absence of the AI Blue Whale.
If it weren't for the upgrade of the AI Blue Whale, they would be able to use their wisdom on the frontal battlefield instead of exhausting their energy in logistics management.
It can be said that the "Blue Whale Upgrade" is the biggest war DEBUFF Anthem has given them, and the Blue Star side has suffered very serious losses.
What's even more annoying is that they have not received any compensation, and Anthem has never compensated them for this matter, as if the "fairness of war principle" does not exist.
Until now, Su Yu still feels a thorn in his heart when he thinks of this incident.
If Chant was not the supreme master of the two galaxies, he really wanted to ask Chant face to face why he was so partial to the Skrulls.
"Is the Blue Whale still not awake?" Speaker Hu Jing leaned back in his chair again, looked up at the top of his head again, and let out a long sigh: "It seems that we really can't expect to use the Blue Whale in this war.
We still have to rely on ourselves!”
"Yes, we can only rely on ourselves." Su Yu stood up and walked to the window, staring due north in the direction of the Skrull army.
The war should start soon. It is unrealistic to expect Blue Whale to suddenly complete the upgrade at this time. If they want to win this war, they still have to rely on themselves.
…
…
At the same time, Manina personally marched to the ninth line of defense and stood on the ninth line of defense.
He stepped on the line of defense under his feet and couldn't help complaining to Lan Qi beside him: "This line of defense is really crude, too crude!"
The reason why Manina complained was because the ninth line of defense under his feet was essentially a solid loess slope.
There is nothing on the loess slope except a row of high-explosive mines at the top.
This is completely different from the previous lines of defense of the Blue Stars.
Take the Blue Star people's first line of defense as an example, it is truly an indestructible barrier.
The giant 100-meter-high city wall on the first line of defense can accommodate hundreds of thousands of humans working at the same time. There is also a super spiritual array on top of the wall - the Longyuan Four Symbols Array.
To put it bluntly, it is no exaggeration to describe the first line of defense as "impregnable"!
But now that Manina is on the ninth line of defense, he can only see a dirt slope that is only 20 meters high and has no defense capabilities. How can he resist complaining?
Lan Qi heard His Majesty the Emperor's complaints.
But he didn't take it to heart at all.
Now Lan Qi has been thinking about another thing in his mind.
Just last night, he received news that Prince Morgan was about to carry out the ultimate action, which was to seize Manina's throne.
Lan Qi had been waiting for this day for a long time, and this news stirred up quite a stir in his heart.
So he didn't pay much attention to Manina's complaints, but thought about it all the time.
But he couldn't help but answer Manina's complaints.
So he thought quickly and replied: "Yes, Your Majesty, the Blue Star people's ninth line of defense is indeed very crude.
But this is normal.
The Blue Stars did not spend too many resources on these defense lines that could be easily breached. Instead, they invested most of their resources in the first line of defense and the tower defense network. Most of the peripheral defense lines were vacant.
, it’s not surprising that it’s simple.”
"Indeed, and basically there are no demonized plants here anymore, which is a good thing!" Manina stood on the slope looking south, with a smile on his face.
Standing on the ninth line of defense and looking out, there are no demonic plants at all between the defense line and the tower fire defense net, not a single one.
The Blue Star people's "Sea Planting Project" was very densely deployed on the first few lines of defense, and demonized plants were everywhere.
However, in the later lines of defense, especially the sixth to ninth lines of defense, the demonized plants are very sparse, with one plant often only being planted tens of meters away, and their ability to hinder the Skrull army is almost non-existent.
Beyond the ninth line of defense, there is not a single demonized plant! This shows that the number of seeds of the Blue Star people is also limited!
This also made Manina feel more relaxed.
From now on, they no longer have to worry about cleaning up the enchanted plants!
…
With the problem of demonized plants solved, there is only one thing left for Manina to focus on - storming the tower defense network and fighting a decisive battle with the Blue Stars!
Of course, the decisive battle requires all military units to be present, and they must also invest their strongest military power in the decisive battle.
"Lanqi." Manina asked Lanqi beside him: "The fleet has fully entered the ninth line of defense, right? Also, have the materials for the disintegrating ray flood tower arrived?"
Since the strongest military force is to be invested, Manina needs to be most concerned about two things - the first is the Skrull fleet, and the second is the disintegration ray flood tower.
Needless to say, the Skrull Fleet is naturally the main force of the Skrull Alliance's offensive;
As for the Cracking Ray Flood Tower, Manina found it very useful after using it in the last attack on the first line of defense!
The power of the Cracking Ray Hongbo Tower is astonishing. The cracking ray it releases is equivalent to a full blow from a peak god-level powerhouse! Not only can it break through the "Dragon Abyss Four Symbols Formation" of the Blue Star people, but it can also break through the tower defense network!
Of course he couldn't leave such a powerful weapon unused.
As early as when Blue Star's second line of defense was breached, he had already ordered the Overseas Students Association to dismantle the built cracking ray tower, transport the dismantled components to the front line and reassemble them.
Half a day ago, the Overseas Students Association set out from the headquarters with the disassembled components. It should be arriving soon, right?
Lan Qi opened his mouth and was about to answer.
But before he spoke, the AI's blue-eating voice sounded around them.
Qielan's voice was still emotionless: "Your Majesty, it's up to me to answer the question you asked.
My answer to you consists of two parts. The first part is the main force of our fleet.
At present, the main force of the fleet has been fully stationed on the ninth line of defense, 90% of the fleet is stationed on the south side of the ninth line of defense, and the remaining 10% is on the north side of the defense line."
"Yeah." Manina nodded to express his understanding.
According to his plan, he planned to fight the Blue Stars due south, so he also transferred most of the fleet to the south.
The small fleet in the north is only used for diversion.
AI Devouring Blue continued: "As for the second part, it is the escort of the components of the cracking ray flood tower.
The components escorted by the Overseas Students Association are almost here, and they are expected to arrive in 1.25 blue stars. The strong person responsible for escorting the components is Amelia, the vice president of the Overseas Students Association."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Manina nodded: "At 1.25 blue stars, it's pretty much what I thought."
After the components arrived, they assembled all the cracking ray towers in front of the ninth line of defense, and then they could officially fight the Blue Stars!
But...wait!
He suddenly realized that there was something wrong with AI Lanyan's words.
Amelia? Shouldn't it be his son Morgan?
Manina's eyes narrowed and he immediately asked AI Lan Qie: "Why is Amelia responsible for escorting? Where is Morgan?"
Manina valued these Disintegration Ray Flood Tower components very much, and he even believed that the components were as important as the Skrull fleet.
Of course he had to hand over such an important thing to the person he trusted most (his son Morgan) for escort. Why did the person in charge of transportation become Amelia?
"Back to Your Majesty." AI Qielan quickly replied: "Just now, His Highness Morgan sent a message - he said that he was eroded by the 'Steel Seal of the Defeated' and could no longer be responsible for the transportation work, so he put his work
He was handed over to his deputy Amelia and returned to the headquarters for recuperation.
He also said in the message that Amelia is very capable and can perfectly complete this escort mission for him, so your Majesty, you don’t have to worry."
"What did you say?! Morgan was also eroded by the 'Steel Seal of the Defeated'?" Manina was shocked when he heard the words of AI Devouring Blue.
"That's right." AI Qielan replied emotionlessly.
"This is really... this is really..." Manina was dizzy and in a trance. She didn't know what to say for a moment.
I didn't expect that the "Seal of the Lost" would be so powerful. At this juncture, something happened to his son Morgan!
…
Speaking of "Steel Seal of the Defeated", we have to go back to two months ago.
In the past two months, the "Steel Seal of the Lost" has been an old and vexing problem for both the Skrulls and the Blue Stars.
More than two months ago, when the Skrulls and the Blue Stars were fighting wits and courage on the first line of defense, the "Steel Seal of the Defeated" ushered in the first wave of outbreaks.
At that time, the core character of Blue Star [Cloud Shepherd] was eroded by the "Steel Seal of the Defeated". In desperation, he could only relieve the pain through self-sacrifice and death.
There was also a concentrated outbreak in the Skrull camp.
Fortunately, none of their core personnel were recruited, and the non-core personnel who were recruited were sent back to Skrull to recuperate, so the "Seal of the Destroyer" crisis gradually subsided.
In the month that followed, no one from either camp was eroded by the "Steel Seal of the Defeated". Naturally, the top leaders of both sides no longer took this seriously.
Just when the top leaders of both sides thought that the storm had passed and no longer took the "Steel Seal of the Defeated" seriously, the second wave came with great force!
One month later, the long-hidden "Steel Seal of the Defeated" broke out again and quickly swept both camps!
The speed and scale of this outbreak were staggering. In just a few days, about 10% of each side's troops were eroded, and they completely lost their will to fight.
There are also some senior executives among them.
A seventh-level being on the Skrull side was corroded and almost went crazy; the core senior executive of the Blue Star side [Chika Fujiwara] was corroded and almost had a mental breakdown. She had no choice but to withdraw from the battle sequence and engage in logistics work.
The root cause of this outbreak of "Seal of the Lost" is of course the aftermath of the battle between the Dark Energy rebels and the Holy Silver Fleet.
The "Steel Seal of the Defeated" was mainly made by the Dark Energy Rebels to deal with the Holy Silver Fleet, and 99% of the "Steel Seal of the Defeated" were also eaten by the Holy Silver Fleet.
But the remaining 1% should not be underestimated. It was this 1% that caused the "Steel Seal of the Defeated" to explode in the two camps!
And that's not the scariest thing.
The most terrifying thing is that after the second wave broke out, the erosion of the "Steel Seal of the Defeated" never stopped. Wave after wave, and people were being eroded every three to five. This became the biggest headache for both camps.
And they had nothing to do about the "Seal of the Destroyer" outbreak.
Both Su Yu and Manina once asked the Holy Silver Fleet for help regarding the "Steel Seal of the Defeated".
But the response from the Holy Silver Fleet was that there was nothing they could do. Many Holy Silver human warriors had been eroded and lost their will to fight. It was not that they were unwilling to help, but that they simply did not have the ability to help.
Su Yu and Manina were also very helpless and could only watch the "Steel Seal of the Defeated" erupting in the army one after another.
As of today, August 21st, if I remember correctly, this is already the fifth wave of the "Seal of the Defeated" outbreak.
Manina originally thought that he was numb and would never have any major emotional fluctuations when he heard the news that someone had been corroded by the "Seal of the Destroyer".
But he couldn't help being shocked when he heard that Morgan had also been tricked!
Morgan's attack this time was equivalent to cutting off one of his right-hand men!
Although Amelia, the vice-president of the Overseas Students Association, is pretty good. As a seventh-level senior, she can speak in the association and manage the entire association.
But in Manina's heart, Amelia is far less reliable than Morgan.
This can be said to be the biggest bad news he has received today... no, it has been in recent times!
…
Standing on the slope of the ninth line of defense and looking into the distance, Manina calmed down for a while before completely calming down.
Of course, Lan Qi on the side also kept giving good advice.
Of course Lanci was very shocked when he heard the news at first! He was even more surprised than Manina!
But he soon realized that Morgan was not necessarily corrupted by the "Seal of the Lost".
He knew Morgan's secret plan and knew that Morgan would choose a suitable time to replace Manina in the near future.
So being eroded by the "Steel Seal of the Defeated" this time may be Morgan's "tactical trick"!
Morgan may have pretended that he had been tricked, and then hid in the shadows to implement his plans in the name of rest.
After a short period of thinking, Lan Qi found that the possibility of this was very high! Far higher than the probability that he would actually be tricked!
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! So Lan Qi felt a lot more at ease and kept comforting Manina.
With Ranchi's comfort, Manina's mental state quickly recovered.
After he recovered, he took a deep breath and asked AI Qielan: "Qielan, is Morgan in good condition now?"
"It's not particularly good to return to Your Majesty." AI Lanqie replied coldly: "His Royal Highness Morgan has similar symptoms to other people who have been eroded by the 'Seal of the Destroyer'. His body is filled with uneasiness, anxiety, fear and other negative emotions. He is currently recovering at the headquarters.
, drank the 'Mokon Ningshen Potion' and was sleeping."
"Moko Calming Potion" is a potion made by Mo Ke, the authoritative master of Scrooge Pharmacy. It is specially used to calm the nerves, stabilize emotions and relieve mania.
Although this potion is useless in curing the "Seal of the Destroyer", it can weaken the manic state of those who are infected to a certain extent, so every Skrull who has been eroded will drink some, and Morgan is taking the correct one.
It's this kind of medicine.
"Morgan...forget it, let him have a good rest!" Until now, Manina could only wave his hand sadly.
Although it was very painful to lose a left and right arm, there was nothing Manina could do.
Morgan has been tricked, so he certainly cannot be forced to continue to shoulder the heavy burden.
Given the special nature of Morgan's work, trouble will definitely occur if he continues to hold important positions!
"I have asked His Highness Morgan to get more rest." AI Qielan replied.
Then, AI Lanqi said to Lan Qi: "Your Excellency Lan Qi, I have some other important things to report to His Majesty. Could you please go back to the headquarters to express condolences to His Highness Morgan?"
"???" Lan Qi was immediately stunned when he heard the AI's words.
He was so surprised because it was the first time he heard such words. Lan Lan's words were so... humane?
Lan Qi had never thought that AI Devouring Blue would behave like this before, because AI Devouring Blue could never be so humane!
If it were the previous AI Lanqi, if there was something that needed to be reported to Manina alone without letting him observe, AI Lanqi would definitely say: "Your Excellency Lanqi, I have some other important things to report to Your Majesty, please do it now
avoid."
Instead of being humane, ask him to go see Morgan.
What happened to the AI that eats blue? Why did it suddenly become like this?
