Chapter 661: Moving to the Next Target - The Dama Wand Mountain Mega Spring
Chapter 661: Moving to the Next Target - The Dama Wand Mountain Mega Spring
As Premier Zhao saw Plante appear before him, he quickly braked in mid-air, stopping just over a hundred meters away.
However, Premier Zhao was not surprised by Plante's appearance. The Azure Star cultivators had long known that the Skrull would send reinforcements, though it was a shame they couldn't dismantle a few "Antimatter Railguns."
But the situation had changed now.
Premier Zhao managed to brake and stop, but the Great Cultivators within the "Seven Stars Big Dipper Formation" could not.
With their large numbers and massive size, their attacks were already on the way, leaving them no choice but to unleash them.
Under the formation's urging, a massive golden monument with the aura of ancient chaos appeared above Plante's head.
The monument carried an immense force, almost instantly reaching just above Plante’s head.
However, Plante showed no sign of panic.
With a swing of his left arm, a large, pale blue, semi-transparent particle shield appeared in front of him.
The particle shield was the size of a small mountain, completely enveloping the base below.
Soon, the ancient chaos monument collided with the particle shield.
A shocking shockwave erupted at their point of impact.
The shockwave rapidly spread out from the spring, devastating the ground for over a hundred kilometers.
However, the ancient chaos monument failed to break through the particle shield.
To be precise, it was far from breaking through.
From Premier Zhao’s perspective, the monument’s impact only caused the particle shield to ripple, and it was still far from breaking.
He even sensed that at least three such monuments would be needed to shatter the particle shield simultaneously!
“You've arrived just in time. Farewell, Plante.” Premier Zhao used his sword hilt to raise a deep blue shield, speaking and retreating cautiously.
After retreating three kilometers to the edge of the "Seven Stars Big Dipper Formation," Premier Zhao protected the six-stage Azure Star cultivators within the formation, carefully retreating from the spring's perimeter.
It took about four minutes for all the Azure Star cultivators to successfully retreat from the range of the mega spring.
And just like that, the battle for the mega spring ended with a whimper.
...
The Azure Star cultivators had to retreat because they couldn't handle Plante.
Premier Zhao's strength was less than a third of his peak, and even with the six-stage cultivators forming the formation and the five seven-stage cultivators like Su Yu, they could only barely manage to hold their own against Plante. They had no spare power to capture the spring.
Moreover, in three hours, the Skrull would send another batch of reinforcements, ensuring their defeat.
With no other choice, the Azure Star cultivators had to retreat and abandon the spring.
Plante watched the Azure Star people retreat without any intention of blocking them.
The reason he didn't stop them was that the spring's range was too small for him.
In such a small area, he couldn't fully exert his power, and a single misstep would make him fly out of the spring's range.
The boundary of the spring was a red line that the Skrull could never cross, so he had no choice but to let the Azure Star people leave.
Although the mega spring battle ended anticlimactically, the Azure Star cultivators were not discouraged.
This was just one part of their plan; the truly arduous battles were still ahead.
After leaving the range of the mega spring, the Great Cultivators all boarded their supersonic fighters and sped toward the next target location.
Su Yu, Ailijie, Tina, and the cat Chenxing were all aboard the same supersonic fighter.
As soon as they settled into the cockpit, Su Yu began explaining their next destination to them.
A large electronic map, taller than a person, hung on the cockpit wall. Su Yu took out an electronic red pen and circled a spot in the northern part of the Iranian Plateau, near the southern shore of the Caspian Sea.
"Alice, Tina, Morningstar, this is our next target: the 'Damavand Giant Spring' located in the northern part of the Iranian Plateau. This spring has an altitude of 5,671 meters. For this battle, Yang Jian and I will lead the charge, while Chancellor Cao will cover our retreat."
"Alright," Alice stroked Morningstar, who was nestled in her arms, and replied.
Tina glanced at the map and nodded. "It's not far from our current location! It looks like a short distance on the map."
Su Yu smiled. "That's right. The actual distance is only about 800 kilometers. With the supersonic fighter's speed, we'll be there in 10 minutes."
He then sat down between Tina and Alice, wrapping his left arm around Tina's shoulders and his right arm around Alice.
"Thank you both for all your hard work these past few days, running around to help our world. I don't know how to thank you enough!"
"Don't worry about it," Tina leaned into Su Yu's embrace, looking up at him with a gentle voice. "Your business is our business. No need for thanks."
Alice poked Su Yu's cheek lightly. "You, but to be honest, we haven't really faced any significant battles. It's not been that tough."
Alice was being honest. Over the past seven days, they had traveled with Yang Jian, occupying various small springs. They hadn't encountered any substantial resistance or opponents of the same level. Their main focus had been on the journey, and her strength remained in perfect condition.
However, her expression suddenly turned somber.
She rested her head on Su Yu's arm and looked out the window. "Sigh, what worries me the most is my country. I've been in your world for seven days and seven nights, which translates to 84 days in our world! I don't know if my avatar has made any mistakes or if she can manage the country well."
The game and reality were two different worlds, and Alice couldn't sense her avatar's state in the game.
She had confidence in her avatar's governance abilities, as the avatar was a 1:1 copy of her intelligence. The only concern was her avatar's strength.
Unlike Alice, who could activate her ancestors' power and burst to peak 7th-level strength, her avatar only had peak 5th-level strength.
If a powerful minister tried to stage a coup, the consequences would be dire.
"It's okay, Alice." Su Yu tightened his embrace and gently kissed her forehead. "Don't forget that the United Government, relevant departments, and all the players are in the game. They will help your avatar."
"You're right." Alice smiled and moved closer to Su Yu.
Tina, however, also wore a worried expression. "84 days. My dad and sister haven't seen me in almost three months! And without my avatar to keep them company, they must miss me a lot."
In the past, Tina would often visit her father and sister every two to three days while in the game world.
Now, after 84 days without seeing them, her father and sister must be very worried about her.
