Global Game: Ten Billion Spirit Energy Coins From The Start

Chapter 677: 674, The Offense Comes to an End_1
 

The protective force field of the Giant Skru Base was initially a deep grey, giving off a metallic sheen while also overlaid with a grid of lightning stripes. It looked particularly cool and futuristic.

From outside the force field, the surveillance devices of the Blue Star humans couldn’t detect what was happening inside the shield.

Yet, the video images passed on by Xue Wenli showed that the Skru had somehow turned the force field into a colorless and transparent state, making it look like a transparent water curtain.

Through this “water curtain”, Blue Star humans could clearly see the situation inside merely with the naked eye.

Clearly, this was deliberately done by the Skru, intending to let the Blue Star humans know what was happening.

North America — Alaska Range — Giant Spring Eye of Mount McKinley.

The water curtain of Mt. McKinley’s spring eye also turned from deep grey to a colorless and transparent state.

Coming from Beak Country, a God-level player, “Valkyrie” Cecilia, travelled through the space cracks and gently descended into the sky of this spring eye.

Cecilia is the most powerful psychic warrior of the Skru clan, wearing a deep black, dimly glowing, heavy metal armor.

Her skin was emerald-like in its translucency and was a light green color while her long, red hair appeared flaming, holding a captivating glow.

This “red and green” appearance looked quite ugly in the eyes of Blue Star humans but it was particularly appealing to Skru aesthetics.

The Skru below her looked up at her like they were looking up at a goddess; their eyes were filled with admiration, respect, and fanaticism.

“We welcome Lady Cecilia!” On the ground, the expeditionary army knelt on one knee uniformly. Even the stage seven commander of the base knelt down.

…

At this point, the video abruptly ends.

Su Yu and the cultivators exchanged glances, then Su Yu cast the next video.

The next video was set in North America — Mexico City East — Orizaba Mountain’s Giant Spring Eye.

In the video, eight stage seven cultivators wearing Beak Country costumes and three others in costumes from other countries descended onto this giant spring eye.

Su Yu was quite familiar with these eleven stage seven cultivators.

They were directly subordinated to Cecilia.

Cindy Doppler once wanted to invite them for help during her battle with the rebels, but they remained neutral, not intervening in the civil war of Beak Country.

Now, they had arrived on Blue Star, too.

…

Aside from these two videos, the rest were pretty much the same.

Manina XIII invited five God-level beings and their subordinates to guard the spring eyes, filling the missing gaps in defense.

By now, it was nearly impossible for Blue Star cultivators to easily conquer the giant spring eyes bloodlessly like they had before.@@novelbin@@

“Ah.” Having finished watching these videos, sighs echoed among the crowd of Blue Star cultivators.

Prime Minister Cao Cao stroked his beard and sighed, “Luckily, we acted fast. If our action had been two hours later, we might not have been able to occupy the spring eye beneath us.”

Emperor Taizong gravely said, “From what I can tell, Emperor Raging Sun must have offered these God-level beings many benefits to have them help guard, such as a share in the yield from the spring eyes.”

“Very likely.” Emperor Liu Che agreed, “In that case, our future assaults on the giant spring eyes are likely to be very challenging!”

“Indeed!” Su Yu also sighed, “In the future, every giant spring eye will have a resident Skru God-level being. If we want to take over that spring eye, we must defeat two Skru God-level beings and the defense of a giant base, all within three hours. That is seriously hard.”

“Ah, this is tricky!” Cultivators started to discuss among themselves.

…

The videos that Xue Wenli sent to Su Yu were not confidential videos that couldn’t be made public.

After getting approval from Chairman Hu Jing, she posted all the videos on the “Singer” website.

As soon as the videos were uploaded, a storm in public opinion erupted online. This incident became the focus of discussion for all Blue Star citizens.

“My God! Now it must be hard for the cultivators to recapture the spring eyes, right?”

“It seems so, at least for the short term.”

“Well, there is a silver lining. Our cultivators can take this opportunity to rest. They must be very tired after fighting continuously for so many days, right?”

“The cultivators really should take some rest, especially Boss Ke. He hasn’t been online in the game for seven days… It’s not too late for us to recapture these spring eyes one month before the decisive battle.”

“Speaking of one month before the decisive battle, by that time all cultivators must have regained their full strength, and I’m sure Boss Ke would have reached stage eight. Our chances will be much bigger then!”

“Yes, we can wait.”

The atmosphere online was overwhelmingly positive, with comments that were very heartening.

…

Su Yu made a final confirmation with Xue Wenli at the Ural Spring Eye.

After confirming that all 19 giant spring eyes occupied by the Skru had been reinforced by forces equivalent to God-level, Su Yu heaved a sigh and turned to the cultivators behind him:

“Everyone, it looks like our assault will have to end for now. For quite some time in the future, we’re unlikely to launch another similar assault.”

“Ah, we really have no other choice.” The cultivators sighed.

Prime Minister Cao Cao timely added, “Considering the efforts everyone has made this time, we’ll have plenty of spiritual energy to recover our strength once we return. I hope everyone can regain their peak strength as soon as possible. To go ‘even higher’, if possible!”

“May your words come true.”

Without more targets to assault, the cultivators were somewhat listless.

After chatting for a bit more, they boarded their fighters to return to the Yunlu Mountain headquarters.

Su Yu did the same, boarding a supersonic fighter and returning to East Sea City with Tina, Morning Star, and Alyssa.

…

“Ah, it’s finally over!” On the fighter, Su Yu collapsed exhaustedly on the cabin bench without any care for his image.

After eight days of overloading battles, he was utterly exhausted, he couldn’t even be bothered about maintaining his appearance.

It was pretty much the same with Alyssa and Tina.

They too were too tired to speak, sitting next to Su Yu. They held the drinks Morning Star handed to them and gulped them down.

All three people and the cat remained wordless, while the fighter continued forward.

After ten minutes, Su Yu finally regained his composure.

He looked at Alyssa, Tina, and Morning Star sitting next to him, gratitude filling his voice, “Whatever it is, I am genuinely grateful to the three of you for everything this time…”

Before Su Yu could finish, Morning Star reached out a paw to cover his mouth and sternly said, “We’ve told you before, don’t use the word ‘thanks’. If you really want to thank us, help out more in our world in the future.”

Su Yu gently brushed Morning Star’s paw away, nodding, “Alright! You all now know what’s going on in Blue Star. The attacks have ended for now and there probably won’t be any battles for the next two or three months.”

During this period, I’ll devote all my energy to the Evolution World but will also make time to spend with you.”

“That’s more like it!” Tina and Alyssa happily nestled themselves into his arms on either side, with Morning Star nestling in his chest.

The peaceful picture of three people and a cat huddling together was like a beautiful painting.
