Chapter 1049: The Thorn Bug Plan
Chapter 1049: The Thorn Bug Plan
The spread of the Tower Xin Defense Web not only surprised the Skrul people but also the workers and military personnel stationed at the construction site of the defensive line. Everyone looked up at the sky, where another "sun" had suddenly appeared, surrounded by a golden "spider web" that stretched and intertwined in the air. Each person was visibly startled.
People put down their work and began discussing this unusual phenomenon:
"What is that thing?"
"I don't know. But with such a strong spiritual energy fluctuation, it must be something significant!"
"Quick, call the United Government!"
"The United Government must already know. There are surveillance cameras everywhere on the island."
"Is this something the Skrul people have created?"
"Maybe. But it could also be something we've created. Who knows?"
"Yeah, our high-tier experts often come up with things we can't even imagine, like the intercontinental teleportation array or the space elevator."
"It looks a bit dangerous. Should we evacuate?"
"Evacuate? Where would we go?"
"Let's just wait for the United Government's announcement. I'm sure they'll release one soon, and then we'll know everything."
"Alright."
...
Everyone had a strong trust in the United Government. In the past year, whenever any major event occurred, the United Government would always be the first to issue an announcement, explaining the cause, process, and outcome of the event.
Moreover, the announcements were always accurate, never once failing or contradicting the facts, making them very reliable.
As expected, the United Government did not disappoint. About ten minutes after the incident, they posted an announcement on the dedicated section of the Evolution game forum:
"To the Blue Star citizens on the Rainbow Islands, everyone must have seen the anomaly in the sky, the golden disc continuously emitting golden threads.
Please rest assured, the anomaly will not cause any harm to anyone.
This anomaly is the ultimate defensive weapon that Su Yu exchanged from the Holy Silver Secret Court... (omitted 1000 words)"
The official announcement, which was 1,000 words long, provided a detailed introduction to the Tower Xin Defense Web, covering its functions, location, and significance from multiple perspectives.
At the end of the announcement, the official also reassured everyone—no need to worry, as this anomaly is something created by our own people, and it is not only harmless but highly beneficial.
Seeing the official announcement, the people on Rainbow Island finally felt more at ease.
Initially, the sight of the second "sun" in the sky made everyone feel a bit uneasy. But upon learning that it was our ultimate weapon, everyone turned to eagerly await its strength and effectiveness!
At the various construction sites of the defensive lines, the workers gathered in groups, excitedly discussing:
"So it's a defensive weapon set up by our own people. That's a relief!"
"Actually, thinking about it, only we and the Skrul could create such an anomaly at this time. Since the war hasn't started yet, it can't be the Skrul, so it must be something we've created!"
"You're just shooting the breeze, Old Li!"
"Hahaha!"
"But from the official's introduction, this 'Tower Xin Defense Web' is quite powerful!"
"Who said it wasn't? It took 10,000 points and is a planetary-level creation. How could the effect be poor?"
"It must be better than the defenses we've built."
"Hope this defense web is effective! It must stop the Skrul!"
...
Currently, there are quite a few people on the Rainbow Islands.
The combined forces of the United Government's army, defense builders, logistics, and transportation workers numbered around three to four million.
Looking up at the Tixin Defense Net that covered the island, the atmosphere was electric with cheers and excitement. Not only were the people of the Neon Islands jubilant, but those on the continents beyond were also buzzing with enthusiasm, discussing the event with great fervor.
However, the Skrulls within the spring were far from pleased. The mood inside their base was tense and heavy.
Half an hour later, the golden threads above had spread to cover a quarter of the sky. The Skrulls could only watch helplessly, completely powerless to stop it.
Even if they could leave the spring, it would be nearly impossible to break through the layers of high-tier Blue Planet psychics to sabotage the Tixin Defense Net.
Plant, Manina III, and other god-tier Skrulls attempted to use their mental powers to penetrate the force field and reach the golden discs above. However, the Blue Planet psychics, including Su Yu, Cao Chancellor, and the First Emperor, were quick to counter with their own mental powers.
The mental forces of both sides clashed and gradually wore each other down near the golden discs. On the surface, it seemed that neither side had the upper hand.
But because the battle was evenly matched, the Skrull gods were unable to use their mental powers to touch the golden discs. The situation remained at a stalemate.
...
However, an unexpected event occurred at this moment—a seventh-tier Skrull powerhouse crossed a spatial rift and arrived on the Blue Planet.
Half an hour earlier, Plant, Manina III, and Alice had arrived through the spatial rift, causing it to violently oscillate and contract. Due to the instability of the rift, no Skrulls had crossed over in the following half-hour, and Plant and the others didn't need any seventh-tier or lower to come to their aid.
But now, a seventh-tier practitioner had managed to cross the rift.
As soon as he appeared, he drew the attention of everyone present.
Plant was about to scold him for not following orders, but when he saw who it was, his scolding turned into a surprised, "Morgan, what are you doing here?"
The newcomer was none other than Morgan Leysun.
Crossing a contracting and oscillating spatial rift was extremely dangerous. When Morgan Leysun emerged, his protective magical shield was already deformed and irregular, on the verge of shattering.
But Morgan paid no attention to his shield. He first glanced at the golden threads spreading across the sky, then quickly flew to the five god-tier psychics and said solemnly, "Elders, I have something very important to report."
Plant and the others nodded silently, waiting for Morgan Leysun to continue.
Morgan Leysun wasted no time and said seriously, "Elders, do you remember the 'Thorn Bug Plan'?"
"The Thorn Bug Plan?!" The Skrull gods' faces lit up with realization.
Of course, there was the "Thorn Bug Plan." How could they have forgotten about it?
...
The "Thorn Bug" in the "Thorn Bug Plan" was a harmful insect on Skrul that fed on crops. They were numerous and could darken the sky when they flew, causing immense headaches for Skrull farmers.
In fact, the Blue Planet had a similar harmful insect—locusts. Both insects posed significant threats to agriculture, so the "Thorn Bug Plan" could also be called the "Locust Plan" if it were on the Blue Planet.
