Chapter 1001: The Battle at the Ronge Mountain Spring (Part 2)
A magnificent burst of star energy once again struck the force field shield, this time hitting the relatively weak waist area.
But something unexpected happened that caught Starling off guard—
Her burst of star energy didn't just hit the shield; it easily penetrated the dozen-meter-thick barrier and entered the base, striking the buildings inside.
Boom!
The burst transformed into a stream of light, smashing into the ground and hitting the central psionic storage station.
The storage station, completely devoid of any defenses, was instantly reduced to dust by the ferocious star energy.
"This..." Starling was completely stunned as she watched the scene.
The Skrellians had completely abandoned their defenses against star energy, just for a single Star Rainbow Focus?
Commander Ruge, standing beside the spatial rift, was fully focused.
This was their "Plan B."
"Plan B" would be activated if they couldn't stop Starling's Star Rainbow Focus from hitting the force field shield.
Once Plan B was activated, they would permanently engage the "Star Energy Ultra-Defense Rune."
This would allow Starling's star energy attacks to pass directly through the force field shield, without hitting the shield itself. However, other forms of attacks, such as physical arrow shots or magical elemental attacks, would still be blocked.
The benefit of this was that they wouldn't have to worry about the Star Rainbow Focus anymore. However, the downside was that the Skrellian high-ranks inside the shield would directly face Starling's star energy attacks.
For the Skrellians, the advantages outweighed the disadvantages.
Although the Skrellian high-ranks would face Starling's attacks head-on, the absence of the Star Rainbow Focus would significantly increase the shield's durability.
After activating the "Star Energy Ultra-Defense" rune, Ruge shouted to the Skrellian high-ranks around him:
"Everyone, I'm initiating Plan B. For the next while, Starling and other Blue Star humans' star energy attacks will pass directly through the shield and hit us. Please prepare accordingly."
"Understood!"
"Roger that!"
The Skrellian high-ranks responded and collectively raised a small defensive barrier between them and the Blue Star humans.
Every Skrellian high-rank present knew about Plan B, as the expeditionary force's commander, Lance, had briefed them on it.
Though they would face Starling's attacks directly, and not just Starling, but also Druids and certain special classes among the players knew star energy attack methods.
However, the number of Blue Star humans capable of using star energy was limited, and the Skrellian high-ranks were confident they could withstand the damage.
Thus, they remained calm, hiding behind the barrier without a hint of panic.
...
In response to this situation, the Blue Star side quickly adapted.
The moment Starling's burst of energy passed through the force field shield, Su Yu immediately understood the Skrellians' strategy.
If the Skrellians had exposed this weakness, they had no reason not to exploit it.
"Starling, go straight for the Skrellian high-ranks," Su Yu ordered.
"Got it!" Starling spread her massive wings, and a torrent of star energy cascaded like a sky-covering flood toward the Skrellian high-ranks.
"Zhong Feng, Corbin, Longlan..." Su Yu called out a series of names: "Go help Starling, and only use star magic to attack the Skrellian high-ranks."
"Understood!"
"Roger that!"
The players Su Yu called out flew out of the formation, joining Starling and focusing their star magic attacks on the Skrellian high-ranks.
These players were either Druids, like Zhong Feng, who transformed into an Owl Beast Form (a chubby, round, and adorable bird), or they were special class players like Corbin and Long Lan.
Corbin is a top-tier player from the European server, specializing in the Celestial Envoy class, while Long Lan is an Asian top-tier player from the American server, specializing in the Duskstar Arcanist class.
Both of their magical attributes primarily revolve around stellar energy, which can penetrate force field shields.
...
Thus, Chen Xing led a group of over a dozen Druids and a few special class players in attacking the Skrul high-ranking officials.
Stellar spells, glowing with the brilliance of a starry river, pierced through the force field shields and headed straight for the Skruls.
The dozens of Skrul high-ranking officials did not dare to be complacent.
They poured the majority of their power into small defensive barriers to withstand the onslaught of steller spells.
Chen Xing is a genuine god-level existence, and Zhong Feng is now a Seventh-Class Upper.
Even if the other Druids and stellar energy class players are disregarded, the full-power output of Chen Xing and Zhong Feng alone is formidable.
The Skrul high-ranking officials prioritized their own survival, so maintaining the small defensive barriers became paramount.
...
Boom!
Accompanied by short and frequent energy collisions, Chen Xing and Zhong Feng's steller spells from the Blue Star side struck the small defensive barriers.
Chen Xing activated all his spell enhancement skills, making his spells particularly devastating.
Faced with such overwhelming damage, the small defensive barriers creaked and groaned. The core defense zone at the center of the barrier was almost breached by Chen Xing's Final Awakening: Stellar Lance!
The Skrul high-ranking officials broke out in cold sweat after being hit by Chen Xing's highly threatening move.
If the small defensive barrier were to be breached, it would result in fatalities!
They hurriedly increased their spiritual energy input, barely managing to stabilize the small defensive barrier.
...
However, with the Skrul high-ranking officials diverting too much power to the small defensive barriers, the outer force field shields were in trouble!
At the beginning, the Skrul high-ranking officials had directed all their power into the force field shields, which, combined with the Burn Defense Runes, made the shields extremely resilient.
But now, they were diverting 70% to 80% of their power to the small defensive barriers, leaving only 20% to 30% for the force field shields, significantly weakening their defense.
As a result, in just 4 minutes, the force field shields were reduced by one-fifth.
Under the Blue Star humans' overwhelming offensive, the force field shields were now at only 60% of their peak strength.
...
Watching the battle at the Langue Spring, Maraena, the Emperor of the Skrul Star, and Lance, the supreme commander, wore indifferent expressions.
Lance sighed and said, "Your Majesty, this battle is essentially decided. At the current pace, if there are no major fluctuations, the Blue Star humans will break through the force field shields in about 17 minutes."
"17 minutes? The Blue Star humans are getting faster," Maraena nodded.
At the Ruape Volcano Spring, the Blue Star humans took 26 minutes to break through the force field shield, but this time it only took 17 minutes, a significant increase in speed.
It seems they must find new ways to counter the Blue Star humans.
