Chapter 642: 639, Successfully Captured the ‘Third in the World’ Spring Eye_1
The situation unfolded just as Su Yu had anticipated.
After the teleportation array appeared above the “World’s Third” Spring Eye, Prime Minister Cao Cao and the other four immediately prepared for battle.
Alyssa, Tina, and Elder Yang began to gather energy, their eyes focused on the space cracks above, ready to strike the Skuru reinforcements as soon as they dares to show up.
Meanwhile, Prime Minister Cao Cao inspected the Giant Skru Base beneath him with a dignified gaze.
Scanning with his divine sense, no corner of the base remained hidden from him.
Standing in the sky, Cao Cao spoke loudly in Skuru, despite his unfamiliarity with the language:
“All Skuru in the base, listen. I am Cao Cao, the god-level peak power of Blue Star. I am giving you two minutes to drop your weapons, raise your hands, and surrender in the open area outside the base. Whoever dares not to surrender, dies.”
Simultaneously, he swung the [The Hilt of the Sword of Thousand Precepts] in his hand. A crescent-shaped blue sword qi flew out, instantly severing the communication line connecting the base to the mother star.
The connection between the base and the central command was completely cut off.
…
However, the large base below wasn’t entirely unresponsive.
When Su Yu and the others appeared, the dozens of 350mm laser cannons in the base fired beams of laser light at them under the stress response.
Though Su Yu’s magic power was nearly exhausted, he could still use the skills on his equipment.
He flew straight towards the lasers and activated a skill attached to his mage’s robe: [Summon Wind Lord Al’Akir].
“Wild wind! Hear my command!” Wind Lord [Al’Akir], towering 25 meters tall and clad in a heavy elemental armor, instantly appeared in front of Su Yu.
Under Su Yu’s control, [Al’Akir] plunged himself into the laser beams without hesitation.
Boom!
[Al’Akir] clashed with the lasers, sending an earth-shattering noise echoing across the sky and the earth.
[Al’Akir], merely of the sixth-level middle-tier strength, was almost instantly shattered by the laser beams into fragments.
However, the laser beams were also rapidly depleted while shattering [Al’Akir].
By the time [Al’Akir] was reduced to powder, only less than one percent of the laser beams remained, posing no threat to Su Yu and the others.
…
In the command room of the base, Commander Andrew Plante looked at the sky with a grave expression on his face.
He only had the strength of the sixth upper stage. The Blue Star’s forces of stage seven and above had arrived, and the communication line had been forcibly interrupted.
What was most terrifying was the fact that reinforcements from the central command were unlikely.
If the central command sent a god-level individual, they wouldn’t likely withstand the attack from Cao Cao and others. To send two, due to the contraction and turbulence of the space cracks, a second god-level individual would only be able to pass through three hours after the first.
The first god-level individual would be unable to withstand the four-hour attack from Cao Cao and his group, aside from Lord Plante himself.
Therefore, reinforcements were unlikely to arrive from the central command.
Since reinforcements couldn’t come from headquarters and resistance would be futile, Commander Andrew put down his weapon, raised his hands, and walked out from the command room with a gray face.
As he walked, he gloomily said, “Respected Blue Star powers, we surrender.”
Upon hearing the commander’s words, the other subordinates in the base breathed a sigh of relief.
They emerged one by one from the buildings in the base, shouting their surrender.
The 800 plus soldiers in this base were the direct troops of the Raging Sun Empire, having received ample patriotic education and unlike Lun Kete’s troops – they weren’t afraid of death.
But they knew resistance was futile. They couldn’t harm the enemy with their limited manpower, resistance would only lead to unnecessary sacrifice, so they chose to surrender.
…
The plaza in the middle of the base and the various roads were soon filled with Skuru raising their hands in surrender.
Most of Prime Minister Cao Cao and his group’s attention was focused on the space cracks above their heads.
However, after waiting for quite a while, and with no movement from the space cracks above, they finally began to relax.
“Ha ha, Elder Yang, Su Yu, it seems this Spring Eye was taken with ease!”
Cao Cao floated in the air, a rare smile on his face as he stroked his whiskers contentedly.
“Yes, your strategy worked brilliantly!” Su Yu gave him a big thumbs up.
Elder Yang was usually a man of few words, but he also sent a look of approval in the Prime Minister’s direction.
“With this base captured, we’ve done pretty well today. I think we can call it a day.”
Prime Minister Cao Cao then turned his eyes to the east.
By now, the sun had risen in the east. It was time for them to return to rest and log into their game.
…
Soon, the two-minute countdown ended.
Prime Minister Cao Cao used his immense spiritual power to “plow” through the base once more.
After the initial “plow,” he found that 99% of the Skuru had raised their hands and surrendered.
Only one Skuru man did not raise his hands; instead, his arms hung lifelessly by his sides.
Prime Minister Cao Cao’s divine sense immediately locked onto this person. His gaze pierced through the shells of the parked spacecraft and landed on him: “Who are you? Aren’t you going to surrender?”
But when he saw the Skuru’s attire, Prime Minister Cao Cao found it peculiar.
The man was clearly a sixth-grade power, yet he was clad in an entire set of prison clothes.
If he was a Skuru prisoner… why would a prisoner be in the cockpit of a spaceship that was about to take off?
What exactly was going on?
Prime Minister Cao Cao found himself unable to comprehend.
…
Of course, this sixth-grade power was none other than Lan Bo, Lan Qi’s brother.
It wasn’t that Lan Bo didn’t want to raise his hands, but his arms had been crippled from previous tortures and couldn’t be lifted.
He was almost in tears, quickly shouting, “Don’t kill me! I’m Lan Bo, the brother of the expeditionary force’s commander Lan Qi. The reason I haven’t raised my hands is because they can’t be lifted. It doesn’t mean I don’t want to surrender!”
“Oh? The brother of the commander of the expeditionary force?” Su Yu and the others were taken aback upon hearing this.
‘The commander of the expeditionary force’ was a powerhouse. His position in Skru Star was roughly equivalent to Commissioner Zhang on Blue Star.
How could such a brother of a powerful person fall to such a desperate state?
Su Yu used [Flash Skill] and appeared in front of Lan Bo after three consecutive flashes.
Lan Bo was startled, but Su Yu was already staring at him. “Are you really the brother of the expeditionary force’s commander?”
“Truthfully! The commander of the base can testify on my behalf.” Lan Bo quickly nodded.
“Well then… Just stay here, don’t move! Someone will come to take you to the prisoners’ camp.” Su Yu disappeared from Lan Bo’s sight after finishing his sentence.
Lan Bo didn’t seem to be lying.
If he really was Lan Qi’s brother, he should know many inside stories about the Raging Sun Empire.
Even if he didn’t speak, he could be sold for a good price in a few days.
Secretly delighted, Su Yu thought.
