Chapter 1467: Ion Shield
Chapter 1467: Ion Shield
As the Automaton appeared before her, Leah drew in a sharp breath.
But a doubt lingered in her mind, "Isn't this all going a little too smoothly?"
The main force had raided over a thousand kilometers to reach Crystal Grid City. If they could destroy this "Octopus" before them, the entire Automaton force would crumble.
However, the ease of their progress was unsettling, almost unnatural.
"Forget it, no time for doubts!" Leah quickly dismissed her uncertainties.
With the final enemy in sight, she decided to strike first and ask questions later. Without hesitation, she transformed into a red light and charged forward, her sword tip concentrating about three-tenths of her power, slicing a deep red line across the sky.
The reason for releasing only three-tenths of her power instead of going all out was that Leah sensed that if she used her full strength, the entire planet might collapse under the strain.
And three-tenths of her power was more than enough to slay her enemy.
Thus, her longsword carried this three-tenths power, rushing towards the Automaton.
However, the Automaton remained unperturbed.
It calmly released a blue energy shield.
The shield crafted by the Automaton differed greatly from the spiritual energy shields created by carbon-based life forms:
This shield was primarily composed of countless high-speed moving ions, crisscrossing under the influence of a powerful electromagnetic force, forming a solid and dense energy matrix.
Leah's sword light, like an angry dragon's roar, rushed forward, and the ion shield immediately responded.
The magnetic field intensity surged, and the surrounding space distorted and deformed under its influence.
After the collision, the sword light's energy was absorbed and deflected by the shield, and the point of impact erupted in dazzling white light.
Unfortunately, the sword light failed to penetrate the ion shield.
The energy ripple from the impact caused the entire Crystal Grid City to tremble.
The ground shook violently, cracking with countless fissures. The sky also trembled violently, and every living being felt like a small boat struggling to stay afloat in a storm, struggling to maintain balance.
But Leah's sword light was not enough to break through the shield. After the collision, the shield remained intact, and the pale blue ions continued to flow unhindered across its surface.
Witnessing this, Leah was shocked, and her heart sank.
She finally understood why she had felt doubtful earlier—was all of this an illusion?
"How is this possible? How can it release an energy shield of this magnitude?"
Leah's eyes widened in disbelief.
The Automaton must have achieved this without external aid, relying solely on its individual strength.
But how could this be?
Wasn't this Automaton a 'false breakthrough'? Its strength was only a tenth of hers. How could a tenth of her power block her attack?
"Wait, was it really a 'false breakthrough'?" Leah's thoughts were in disarray. "Could it not be a 'false breakthrough' but a 'true breakthrough'? If it was a 'true breakthrough', it could indeed withstand my attack. But if it's a 'true breakthrough', why didn't it stay in Antarctica?"
Leah's mind descended into complete chaos.
...
To be continued in the next chapter!
Confronted with this situation, Leah quickly turned back to Su Yu, "Su Yu, you..."
But as she turned, her voice abruptly stopped. To her surprise, Su Yu and Morningstar had vanished without a trace.
She swiftly scanned the area with her psychic energy, finding no sign of Su Yu within a radius of several dozen kilometers.
"Damn! We've fallen into a trap!" A thunderous realization struck Leah's mind.
