Chapter 1171: Seven Days Later

After everything was explained, Su Yu initiated a vote to decide this crucial issue. Everyone was still very supportive of Su Yu, and the results came in quickly: 18 votes in favor, with no opposition. The decision was unanimous!
Su Yu didn't say much. As soon as the meeting ended, he immediately issued orders to change the strategy of their forces.
...
Seven days passed, and it was now September 5th.
At 11:00 AM on September 5th, Manina stood on a hill overlooking the ninth defensive line. He had his hands behind his back, gazing south toward the main battlefield. He wasn't alone; a squad of over 60 bodyguards surrounded him. This elite squad, led by the peak 7th-stage powerhouse Mont Loar, provided significant protection. Each bodyguard was at least a peak 5th-stage warrior, and the squad leaders were all at least 6th-stage upper-level.
In the past, Manina never brought his personal guards anywhere because it was cumbersome and didn't offer much protection. However, after reviewing the documents provided by Emperor Dixin, Manina had kept his guards close. Although the guards weren't entirely effective, having them around gave him some peace of mind, at least making him feel less isolated.
...
Standing on the hill, Manina's gaze was fixed on the main battlefield between their forces and the Blue Star humans. The situation on the front lines remained unchanged. Their side continuously bombarded the enemy with Disintegration Ray Turrets, various laser weapons, and antimatter railguns, causing the Tarxin Defense Grid and the "Hongjun Sky Net Defense Array" to be riddled with holes.
However, the Tarxin Defense Grid and the "Hongjun Sky Net Defense Array" recovered quickly, often within seconds. Thus, the battlefield was a constant cycle of destruction and restoration, with both sides depleting their energy reserves.
Occasionally, the Blue Star humans retaliated, using their psychokinetic weapons or captured laser weapons and antimatter railguns. However, their counterattacks were weak compared to the Skrull forces' overwhelming firepower, and a few force field shields easily deflected them.
At the highest points of the Tarxin Defense Grid, high-stage powerhouses were engaged in battle. They fought along the edges of the grid, either in one-on-one duels or in groups, with several 6th and 7th-stage powerhouses falling each day.
The divine-level powerhouses were also in constant combat. For example, Plante and Chancellor Cao, Manina III and Emperor Qin Shi Huang, Zhongfeng and Stym, Xu Xiaotian and Sibo, and Old Meng and Lei. They clashed frequently, causing the sky to darken and the sun and moon to dim with each confrontation until they were too exhausted to continue.
However, their battlefields were often higher up, usually in outer space, and required additional defenses in the stratosphere to prevent the aftermath from spreading below.
They also fought with restraint, rarely engaging in life-or-death battles. The impact of a full-scale battle between divine-level powerhouses was immense. For instance, if Emperor Qin Shi Huang and Manina III were allowed to fight without restraint, the entire Asian continental shelf would be shattered!
If all the divine-level powerhouses unleashed their full strength, the entire country of Japan might slide into the eastern sea trench within days!
At that point, not only would the Blue Star humans face catastrophic damage, but the Skrull expeditionary force would also be submerged, with no dry land left to stand on.
To avoid such a disaster, both sides fought with great caution.
