Chapter 522: Operation "Rake Worm"
Chapter 522: Operation "Rake Worm"
Master Tao Qian looked at Jun Shiyi and said calmly, "Brother Jun Shiyi, I think it's best if you make the trip to Cauldron. My cultivation at the Nascent Soul stage means my flight speed is much too slow, and it would take me an hour and a half to two hours to get there. You, on the other hand, can make it in just half an hour. As the saying goes, ‘speed is of the essence in military affairs.’ I believe you are the better choice for this mission."
After speaking, Master Tao fixed his gaze on Jun Shiyi, watching his reaction closely.
If Jun Shiyi were unwilling to go himself and insisted on Tao Qian returning to Cauldron, it would likely indicate some sort of plot.
...
However, to Tao Qian's surprise, Jun Shiyi's reaction was completely different from what he had expected.
Jun Shiyi slapped his forehead hard. "By Jupiter, I forgot about the difference in our flight speeds!"
He then quickly took off in the direction of Cauldron, shouting as he flew, "You two wait here. I'll contact Senior Yang and be back soon!"
With those words, Jun Shiyi's figure vanished into the horizon.
The three of them had brought satellite phones when they arrived, but due to Su Yu's overwhelming spiritual energy fluctuations, the phones were now completely useless. Hence, Jun Shiyi had no choice but to head to Cauldron.
Watching Jun Shiyi fly away, King Arthur remained silent, but Master Tao Qian was visibly stunned.
What was going on here?
Could it be that he had wronged Brother Jun Shiyi, and Jun Shiyi had no ulterior motives?
Master Tao Qian fell into deep self-reflection, realizing he shouldn't have been so suspicious.
Meanwhile, at the Luther Mountains, on Mount Albert, in the Skrull military base.
The Skrulls had built a main command center next to their spiritual energy collection plant in this military base.
The main control room was equipped with over 30 screens of various sizes, each displaying a special location on Earth.
Jenive sat in the main control room, her eyes fixed on all the screens.
The largest screen in front of her showed the image of the seawater palace where Su Yu was located.
The seawater palace was pulsating like a heart, with colorful lights flashing above it. These images were being captured by satellites.
Commander Monk stood behind Jenive.
Over the past ten days, Jenive had consistently thwarted Monk's attempts, and eventually, he gave up on his goal.
At that moment, Jenive turned to him and asked, "Monk, can you estimate how long it will take for Su Yu to complete his breakthrough?"
"This..." Monk thought for a moment before answering, "Based on my experience, it should take no more than six hours, and it might be even faster. However, whether he will succeed in his breakthrough is still uncertain."
Jenive nodded and turned back to the screens.
She murmured to herself, "It seems it's time for us to launch our full-scale operation."
The Skrulls had named their operation "Rake Worm," a designation given by their supreme commander, Lance.
This operation consisted of three parts, all of which were now nearing completion.
The three parts were:
1. Equip 500 elite Earth warriors with SUN-47 automatic pulse laser rifles and SUN-259 laser guns to assault the nuclear warfare headquarters in NHD State.
2. Equip 50 Gordon family assassins with spirit-concealing crystals and IOTN-22 stealth rocket launchers to attack the five mercenary camps located on the slopes of Yunlu Mountain.
3. Contact major Earth factions to form the "Anti-HX Alliance," preparing to simultaneously challenge HX and the Earth United Z※ led by HX.
These plans were carried out in secret, with the Skrulls providing a vast array of shielding and confidentiality devices. HX's hackers and spies were completely unaware of the ongoing operations.
Meanwhile, the United Z※ was preoccupied with disaster relief efforts, leaving no time or energy to monitor other areas.
Now, the time was ripe, and the plans were finally ready to be put into action!
Jenny sent a task execution request to Lance.
Upon receiving approval, she immediately contacted her various subordinate departments and launched the "Lekochong" operation!
The first to act were the various Z※s.
One hour later, at 11:00 AM, YG's leader made a statement on the internet.
He declared that YG no longer recognized the Blue Star United Z※, refused to acknowledge the legitimacy of HXZ※, severed all ties with HXZ※, and formally declared war on HX!
His declaration immediately caused a storm on the internet.
As the shock and disbelief spread, FG, JND, ADLY, and others began to post similar statements on social media platforms.
The Pacific Nation chimed in as well, neither too early nor too late.
The reason they weren't the first to speak out was that the Skrulls wanted to keep Gordon as a trump card, to be played at the most critical moment.
The declarations from various Z※s immediately plunged the world into chaos.
Blue Star citizens watched in disbelief as their leaders made these statements.
"Forming a United Z※ to combat the alien threat" was the hope of every Blue Star citizen, and everyone had been working towards this goal.
Now, with the sudden betrayal of the Z※s, what was happening? Were they aligning with the surrender faction?
On major social media platforms, people were discussing the situation fervently:
"What's going on? What are the Z※s up to?"
"Not recognizing the Blue Star United Z※? Are they going to go their own way or join the surrender faction?"
"Actually, the surrender faction isn't entirely unacceptable. If the Skrulls can guarantee our survival, then we might consider it."
"Stop! Stop! Talking like that is illegal."
People were frantically discussing the situation online, with many even questioning if they were still dreaming.
In the capital of HX, Hu Jing, the Speaker, was nearly thrown into disarray by this sudden major shift.
He pulled out his phone and called Zhang Zheng. Once the call was connected, he immediately asked, "Zhang Ling, what's going on?"
"Speaker comrade," Zhang Zheng replied solemnly, "I haven't figured out the full extent of what's happening, but I can assure you that the Skrulls and the surrender faction are definitely involved!"
"You're stating the obvious. I know the Skrulls are behind this," Hu Jing said irritably.
If Zhang Zheng were there in person, Hu Jing would have rolled his eyes at him.
Zhang Zheng remained calm and said, "Regardless, we must stay composed. People are panicked right now, and we need to take this opportunity to issue a formal diplomatic statement. Oh no, this is bad!"
His tone was steady at first but rose sharply towards the end, almost shouting.
"What's wrong, Zhang Ling?" Hu Jing's heart tightened.
"The mercenary camp on the waist of Yunlu Mountain is under attack!" Zhang Zheng shouted. "The Great Cultivators on Yunlu Mountain just left after receiving a call from Jun Shiyi and were immediately attacked... Wait! Could it be that Jun Shiyi is using a feint to draw them away?"
