Chapter 1046: Setting Up the Tashin Defense Network
Half an hour later, the small troop transport ship, model TC-34, took off from the Yan Mountain headquarters, carrying Su Yu and his team toward the Fuji Spring in the northeast.
The most important task Su Yu had today was to set up the Tashin Defense Network.
With only a month left until the final battle, now was the perfect time to deploy the network.
In the past, they had refrained from setting it up earlier to prevent the Skrulls from studying and potentially finding a way to counter it. However, with the deadline approaching, it was crucial to establish the network, allowing the Earth forces to familiarize themselves with its operation. Delaying it any further would be risky.
...
The troop transport ship moved swiftly, reaching the Fuji Spring in just a few minutes.
Construction in Japan was in full swing, and as they flew over the island, they saw construction sites everywhere. The Earth forces had concentrated all their defensive resources on the island, setting up ten lines of defense alone.
During the flight, Su Yu and President Hu Jing actively introduced the 16 elders to the functions of these defenses and the objectives of each line in the upcoming war.
After the introduction, President Hu Jing summarized, "Just these ten lines of defense have consumed 55.6% of our Earth's defensive resources.
According to the war simulations by AI Blue Whale, these ten lines will significantly delay the Skrulls' advance, allowing us to hold out for 10 to 15 days.
Although the Skrulls can break through all ten lines in a couple of weeks, they will be exhausted and will need time to recuperate before continuing their assault."
During the past half-hour, Commissar Zhang had distributed AI Blue Whale terminals to each of the 16 elders and taught them how to use them.
The elders were very interested in AI Blue Whale, as the database provided quick answers to all their questions.
After listening to President Hu Jing, Elder Liu Che stroked his long beard and asked solemnly, "What happens after the Skrulls break through the ten lines of defense? How will we deal with them then?
On our way here, I saw that the tenth line of defense is built along the coast of the island. Once the Skrulls breach these ten lines, how will we combat them?"
The 16 elders, unaware of the Tashin Defense Network, turned their attention to President Hu Jing.
President Hu Jing quickly explained, "Here's the plan: we have a final, ultimate weapon—the Tashin Defense Network!..."
He briefly described the origin and capabilities of the Tashin Defense Network.
The 16 elders were immediately impressed!
The Tashin Defense Network? It sounded like an excellent defense mechanism!
Firstly, this defensive weapon was recommended by the Starsea Silver, Donna, who was well-known for her close relationship with Su Yu.
Secondly, the network was crafted by a planetary-level entity, and Su Yu had spent 10,000 credits to acquire it, ensuring its defensive capabilities were extraordinary.
President Hu Jing concluded, "In summary, we have a final war plan: we will use the ten lines of defense to wear down the Skrulls' momentum and slow their advance.
Once the Skrulls break through these ten lines, we will fall back to the Tashin Defense Network and defend it with all our might.
The Tashin Defense Network is our last line of defense, the final barrier protecting humanity on Earth.
Our fate as Earth humans hinges on this defense network. If we can hold off the Skrulls, we win. If we can't, we lose."
The Earth forces alone could not stop the overwhelming Skrull army emerging from the spring.
To completely block the Skrulls, the Tarxin Defense Network is the world's only hope.
The 16 elders also realized this, their brows furrowing as they fell into deep thought.
Indeed, the Tarxin Defense Network seems to be the only option to stop the Skrulls.
After all, it's a planetary-level creation, perhaps it can hold them back?
...
After a moment of contemplation, Elder Liu Che spoke up, "So, you brought us here today to witness the setup of the Tarxin Defense Network?"
Chairman Hu Jing nodded, "Exactly. Today we will set up the defense network and test its specific functions and defensive capabilities. That's why Su Yu said it would be a shame not to witness it."
"Ha, then we'll be watching closely."
The elders' spirits lifted. Setting aside other matters, they hadn't expected to encounter such a significant event upon their return to Blue Star!
They were eager to see just how effective the Tarxin Defense Network, a planetary-level creation, would be.
...
...
As they chatted, the spacecraft stopped above the spring at Mount Fuji.
At the foot of Mount Fuji, players and ancient cultivators were already gathered in large numbers.
All mages and ancient cultivators of the sixth rank and above were in position, and the two-thousand-strong magic corps controlled by Su Yu's clone stood in a neat circular formation at the base of the mountain.
Everyone was waiting for Su Yu. Once he arrived, the setup of the Tarxin Defense Network could officially begin!
From the small troop transport, Su Yu was the first to step out.
Glancing at the neatly arranged players, the magic corps, and the ancient cultivators below, he didn't hesitate. From his storage backpack, he pulled out a golden, light-like "shield."
The "shield" was completely transparent, covered with layers of strange, intersecting text that formed a three-dimensional "X" shape.
The text was not in the standard language of the Holy Silver Federation, so Su Yu had no idea what it said.
But that didn't matter.
Holding the "shield," Su Yu gently tossed it into the sky and infused it with spiritual energy.
Seeing Su Yu's actions, the hundreds of high-ranking players, ancient cultivators, and the thousand-strong magic corps simultaneously extended their hands or weapons, channeling their spiritual energy toward Su Yu.
Furthermore, six large-scale Spiritual Energy Beam Generators were set up on the ground at the foot of the mountain.
These generators had already absorbed a vast amount of spiritual energy, which they now focused into beams, all directed at Su Yu.
Soon, Su Yu was enveloped in a thick, dense, milky-white spiritual energy, forming a large, pale white light cocoon around him.
However, due to the different attributes of the spiritual energy, friction and collisions occurred as it converged, gradually shifting the "milky" color toward "pale purple" and even "deep purple," becoming wild and uncontrollable.
Su Yu, of course, wouldn't allow the spiritual energy to become wild. Uncontrolled, wild spiritual energy would be unusable.
Using his body as a medium, he transformed himself into a massive "funnel," drawing in the endless spiritual energy around him and channeling it, without a drop wasted, into the "shield."
