Chapter 653: Replicating a Feat?
Chapter 653: Replicating a Feat?
Ranchi is currently in the main command room not far from Emperor Manina.
He steps out of the room and strides confidently toward the Emperor, a broad smile on his face. "Your Majesty, the 'Blasting Extraction' plan is proceeding exceptionally well! The rate at which we are transporting psychic energy from Earth is even faster than anticipated. All of this is thanks to your brilliant strategy, which has led to such a significant victory."
"Enough flattery," Manina waves him off casually, then asks, "What are the Earthlings up to now?"
Ranchi stops two meters in front of Manina, bows his head, and speaks in a serious tone. "I can break down the Earthlings' actions into three parts:
First, the United Earth Government. They are growing increasingly restless and are preparing to use nuclear bombs to attack our small bases, attempting to forcibly reclaim the psychic springs.
Second, the 37 Sixth-Rank cultivators on Earth. These 37 cultivators have dispersed throughout the world, disrupting our psychic energy transportation at various springs.
Both the United Earth Government and these 37 Sixth-Rank cultivators are acting as we predicted."
Ranchi pauses for a moment.
Manina nods. "Go on, what else?"
Ranchi hesitates before responding, "Regarding the six Seventh-Rank and above beings on Earth. Cao Cao is still on the move, attacking large springs, and has not changed his course due to this unexpected event.
As for the Seventh-Rank beings, Yang Jian continues to work with the game characters Morning Star, Tina, and Eliza to occupy small springs. They have also not altered their plans.
In short, their actions are all within our expectations."
Manina fixes his gaze on Ranchi. "Ranchi, are you holding back the most important person?"
Ranchi takes a deep breath and replies, "Yes, I haven't mentioned Su Yu. I left him for last because he is the only one who has surprised us."
"What is he doing now?" Manina's expression tightens.
To date, the Skrulls' biggest threat has been Su Yu, who has already caused significant damage to Skrull operations.
Hearing that Su Yu is up to something again, Manina's nerves are on edge.
"I don't know," Ranchi shakes his head. "Before the massive psychic energy eruption, Su Yu captured two small springs in Japan. After that, he disappeared from our radar.
We have no idea where he is or what he is doing, despite using every surveillance method at our disposal."
"Is that so?" Manina strokes his chin thoughtfully.
According to their previous predictions, Su Yu would separate from Yang Jian and others after the global psychic energy eruption, using his ability to teleport long distances to attack small springs and disrupt the energy transportation infrastructure.
However, it has been 15 minutes since the eruption, and Su Yu has not shown up yet. What is he hiding in the shadows?
"Ranchi, keep a close eye on any information related to Su Yu. Report to me immediately if you find anything!"
"Understood!"
As the two top Skrull leaders are gripped by anxiety, the scene shifts back to Earth. Su Yu, using the [Invisibility Spell], has infiltrated a large Skrull base in the East Siberian Mountains, the largest Skrull base in the region.
Su Yu's original plan was to use his teleportation ability to travel the world, disrupting the Skrulls' efforts to transport psychic energy.
But then he remembered what he did when he captured the Lingwu Mountain spring—using the cleric's [Mind Control] ability.
Su Yu's skills took control of the spaceship's pilot and the second-in-command, making them replace the psychocannisters bound for the Skrull planet with high-yield tactical missiles.
Later, this fully loaded spaceship achieved significant results in battle—indirectly sinking the floating island above Trenar City and causing the Skrulls to lose tens of thousands of psychocannisters they had mined earlier.
Given this, could he replicate this feat again?
Of course, the Skrulls would be smarter this time. They would definitely implement strict security checks upon the return of the transport ships to their home planet to prevent a repeat of the previous disaster.
But things were different now!
The speed at which the Skrulls were returning psychocannisters had increased by several dozen times, and the number of transport ships had also multiplied by the same factor.
If the Skrulls continued to use their cumbersome security system, it would likely cause congestion on Skrull.
This was akin to the security checks at a train station during the Spring Festival. If the ticket inspectors continued to check each ticket individually, it would lead to massive congestion at the exit. In such a situation, the inspectors often abandoned the checks and let people through directly to avoid the congestion.
Similarly, the Skrulls might abandon their "security checks" and allow the transport ships to pass through quickly to avoid congestion.
If he could send another missile-laden ship past the checks, he might successfully sink another floating island!
With this in mind, Su Yu concealed his presence and infiltrated a large base in the Siberian Mountains.
Unlike last time, Su Yu wasn't moving slowly. He constantly reminded himself, "Faster! Speed up as much as possible and get the missile-laden ship to Skrull as quickly as you can!"
He needed to move fast because he was the main focus of the Skrulls.
At such a crucial moment, if he disappeared for too long, it would definitely raise the Skrulls' alertness.
The cost of raising the Skrulls' alertness was a significant decrease in the success rate of his plan.
So this operation had to be fast! The faster, the better!
...
And indeed, Su Yu had created a series of miracles.
At the 3rd minute of the global psychic surge, he decided to execute this operation;
At the 4th minute, he arrived at the target spring and successfully infiltrated it;
At the 6th minute, he successfully controlled the psychocannister transport ship's pilot, modifying the flight and transport instructions;
At the 9th minute, he smoothly controlled the base's fifth-rank deputy commander, agreeing to the two commands and clearing all traces of his actions;
At the 11th minute, the psychocannister transport ship, fully loaded with "Buzz-626" missiles, took off and successfully passed through the spatial rift to return to Skrull by the 16th minute.
As Su Yu had predicted, his 15-minute disappearance had already raised the Skrulls' alertness.
After saying goodbye to Emperor Rangi, Rangi returned to the main command center, focusing intently on the various screens in front of him, closely monitoring the war's developments, especially on the whereabouts of Su Yu.
However, Rangi had too many and too varied issues to pay attention to, making it impossible to cover everything.
The transport ship returning from the Siberian Mountains base passed through the spatial rift and flew for another minute without being detected by the Skrulls.
At this point, the countdown to the ship's explosion was down to the final 30 seconds!
