Chapter 1121: A Single Strike, Heavy Losses
Thunderstorm Cascade is a relatively rare seventh-tier spell, renowned for its exceptional magical penetration.
The Skrull drones generally have high magical resistance, and their bodies can activate a "Mini Deflection Force Field Shield," making them highly resistant to physical attacks. Elemental spells like fire, water, earth, and lightning do minimal damage to the drones. Only the spatial spell Dimensional Slash deals reasonable damage, but its efficiency in taking down enemy drones is not outstanding.
Thunderstorm Cascade is the exception! This spell has the highest energy density among seventh-tier area-of-effect spells, capable of effectively piercing through the drones' magical resistance and directly burning out their internal electronic components.
The Skrull drones are highly sophisticated machines, with each electronic component playing a crucial role in their functionality. Thunderstorm Cascade only needs to burn out a portion of these components to cause the drones to lose balance and plummet from the sky.
At this moment, Su Yu's clone cast Thunderstorm Cascade with evident success.
Dense, dark thunderclouds gathered in the sky, and in an instant, lightning flashed and thunder roared, with bolts of lightning dancing wildly! The lightning formed countless silver serpents, which intertwined and ultimately merged into a dense, waterfall-like torrent of electrical energy!
The torrent of lightning rushed down, striking the drones below with full force.
How could the drones withstand such a massive energy onslaught? The first few drones to be hit were immediately penetrated, exploding into bursts of light in the sky!
Even the drones caught in the periphery of the lightning torrent fared no better.
Many drones had their internal components extensively damaged by the stray electrical currents, causing them to plummet from the sky.
Only those drones on the outer edges, far from the lightning waterfall, managed to avoid the worst of it.
However, Su Yu's clone released not one but six Thunderstorm Cascades! Six consecutive Thunderstorm Cascades covered half the sky, leaving the drones with no room to maneuver as they were washed over by the "waterfall."
Thus, explosions and crashes ensued.
The neatly arranged drone formation was instantly torn apart, leaving six large, overlapping gaps that completely disrupted their formation.
Any observer could see that the drone formation had been dealt a devastating blow.
Soon, Manina's earpiece crackled with the AI Syblue's voice: "Your Majesty, the drone formation has been hit by a ranged spell from the Blue Planet. In the first wave of impact, 983 drones have gone offline, and another 222 have sustained varying degrees of damage, with 102 losing their combat capabilities!"
"Drone offline" does not necessarily mean the drone is destroyed; it could also mean that the drone's signal reception and transmission devices have been damaged by the lightning, temporarily losing contact with the main base.
However, the numbers clearly indicate that in the first wave of impact, the drone formation had already suffered a one-third loss. This can be described as "catastrophic damage"!
Yet, Manina remained unperturbed.
As mentioned earlier, his thoughts were entirely focused on his son, Morgan.
Even if the drone formation had been completely wiped out in a single strike, he would have merely raised an eyebrow.
"Syblue," Manina instructed, "I'm temporarily handing over frontline command to you. Take charge of the combat operations. You don't need to consult me unless there are significant tactical changes."
"Understood," Syblue replied without questioning, taking over the command.
