Chapter 1379: Jared's Jealousy
Crack!
The red "disc" was frozen in place.
The space around it solidified, then was sliced into countless fragments! The red "disc" couldn't withstand the immense force and was shattered along with the surrounding space. The crisis at the Blue Star headquarters was temporarily averted.
This was Su Yu's first time using a planetary-level spell, and the results were impressive.
However, he had no time to revel in his success, as the enemy quickly sent a mental message.
"Su Yu? You actually dare to return at this moment?"
The mental message came from Jared.
The blood-red "disc" was also Jared's attack.
He knew Su Yu's clan was in the building, and although Su Yu wasn't there at the time, Jared had casually launched an attack in their direction.
Crushing a few insignificant targets was no big deal to him.
But he hadn't expected Su Yu to return, and at such a critical moment. Was he not afraid of death?
"It's Su Yu! Delgrock, Montley, I'll be right back." Jared informed his two companions.
The rebel organization had sent two planetary-level experts to Hamanis City: Delgrock and Montley.
Montley was a fifth-stage planetary expert, while Delgrock was a seventh-stage planetary expert.
It was their combined efforts, along with Jared's sneak attack, that had swiftly defeated Oumir. Otherwise, they would have had a much tougher time.
Hearing Jared's words, Delgrock glanced at him and then buzzed, "You have 15 seconds. Do what you want, just make sure to time it right."
With that, Delgrock placed his hand on a deep purple crystalline cocoon.
The cocoon was about five meters in diameter, its surface reflecting a gem-like luster. Inside was a person, none other than Oumir.
After the combined attack from the three enemies, Oumir had been severely injured and was on the brink of death, all within a few seconds.
Jared and his companions had considered killing Oumir outright, but Oumir had a trump card.
The crystalline cocoon was Oumir's trump card.
Now, the cocoon protected Oumir, its hardness and defensive power were astonishing. The surrounding spiritual energy shield was incredibly thick, and even the three of them attacking simultaneously would take several minutes to break it.
Thanks to the cocoon's protection, Oumir barely clung to life.
Delgrock placed his hand on the crystalline cocoon, not because he had any designs on Oumir, but because he had nothing else to do and wanted to examine the cocoon's structure.
Jared had also been idle until Su Yu appeared.
The only one with a task was Montley. He was holding a blue crystal the size of a fist and pressing it against the Holy Song Tower in Hamanis City.
This crystal was not a spiritual energy artifact but an AI-focused weapon created by the Crystal Blue Collective.
The crystal contained nearly a billion different viruses, logic bombs, error programs, and a massive amount of junk data.
These were enough to destroy a Level 4 AI, and even a Level 5 AI might not withstand it. A Level 6 AI could be paralyzed for a long time.
Montley was now injecting the crystal into the Holy Song Tower. In their view, the destruction of AI Blue Whale was only a matter of time.
Delgrock and Jared's mission was simple: first, eliminate Oumir, then wait for Montley to inject the crystal, and leave the hub before the "35-second" deadline.
The "35-second" deadline came from their precise calculations.
Before the mission began, they had detailed calculations.
When Lyle descended on Zone 1 to attack Su Yu, he had calculated that he had only 5 seconds before the hub's stellar-level forces arrived.
Jared's situation was similar, but since they were in Zone 170, the hub's stellar-level forces would arrive much slower.
According to their calculations, it would take about 35 seconds for the hub's stellar-level forces to reach Zone 170 after receiving the news.
It might be a bit more or less, but in any case, they needed to compress their entire operation—appearing, attacking Oumir, injecting the crystal, and leaving—to within 30 seconds.
They had already used 15 seconds, so Delgrock reminded Jared that he only had 15 seconds left before they had to leave.
Jared, however, was unconcerned.
"15 seconds, plenty of time." A cold smile spread across his lips.
He flashed across several kilometers, appearing outside the Blue Star headquarters.
Then, he extended his right hand, fingers together, and a massive gray "book" the size of a small mountain descended like a mountain crushing the building.
After that, Jared turned and prepared to return to his companions.
This massive "book" was almost his full-strength attack, enough to instantly kill a newcomer like Su Yu who had just reached the planetary level.
Of course, he couldn't be 100% sure he would kill Su Yu, as he didn't know if Su Yu had any life-saving means.
But this attack would guarantee that Su Yu would be severely injured, if not killed outright.
As for Su Yu's clan, they would be obliterated in an instant.
"Enjoy a life of suffering from now on, for being such a show-off," Jared thought to himself.
The reason Jared was so fixated on Su Yu was indeed because of Su Yu's excessive showmanship.
Before Su Yu arrived, Jared had been the most prominent figure in the hub, the most dazzling star.
But recently, everyone had been talking about Su Yu, even saying that his ability to cause trouble far surpassed Jared's, perhaps even reaching half of Su Yu's level.
How could he tolerate that?
A child, barely 30 years old, who had been forcibly elevated by the Holy Song, had no right to be mentioned in the same breath as him.
"Hmph, let's see if you can still be a show-off after this," Jared muttered, activating his teleportation to leave.
But at that moment, a golden blade of light flashed behind him!
