Chapter 826: Capture the ringleader first in order to capture all the followers.
Su Yu couldn’t understand why the Skrull people had cultivated such a large underground force only to cause trouble before the outbreak of the great war. Why not wait until the war had begun to make their move?
What benefit was there in creating havoc now? Or had their actions already been exposed?
Su Yu took out his phone, preparing to ask Xue Wenli what exactly was going on.
But just as he unlocked his phone and was about to access his contacts, his ringtone sounded—it was a call from Cat Morning Star.
“What’s up?” Su Yu answered the call.
“Nemesis, the rebels have started dispersing and fleeing, many of them are even taking hostages as human shields…” Morning Star conveyed the situation over there with concise language.
“I see.” Listening to Morning Star’s report, Su Yu’s brows furrowed deeply.
This was going to be difficult!
The Skrull people wouldn’t care about the lives of the Blue Star Humans at all, using hostages as shields while their own side had to be careful.
“All right, Morning Star,” Su Yu said on the phone, “come to me. We’re going to pull off a big job together.”
“A big job? Where are you right now?”
“I’m at the top of the government building.”
“Okay, I’ll be right there.”
After saying this, the cat hung up the phone.
Su Yu sighed heavily with a grave expression, then closed his eyes and continued to browse through Gordon’s memory fragments.
…
A minute later, a streak of starlight crossed the sky and arrived at the government building, appearing next to Su Yu.
Seeing that Morning Star had arrived, Su Yu, without another word, waved one hand, and a pale blue [Teleportation Portal] appeared in the middle of the office space.
“Where are we headed?” Morning Star asked with her spiritual power as she crawled into Su Yu’s pet space.
“You’ll know once we get there,” Su Yu said, stepping into the [Teleportation Portal] without hesitation.
The next second, he appeared in the air above a mountain peak.
This peak was the highest point of the Rocky Mountains—Mount Elbert, and it was also the outlet of a giant Spiritual Spring Eye, which, of course, was also where a gigantic Skru base was situated.
Su Yu had learned about this Spring Eye from Gordon’s memory and was also aware that Jennifer, who controlled him, was inside this base.
So, he teleported directly here, planning to capture the leader to defeat the enemy.
After the teleportation was complete, Cat Morning Star immediately jumped out of Su Yu’s pet space.
She trembled with surprise at the sight of the giant Skru base below, with astonishment written all over her cat face: “Nemesis, how did we come here? Which base is this?”
You couldn’t blame Morning Star; after all, every giant Skru base looked more or less the same, so it was normal not to recognize it.
“This is the giant base of the Rocky Mountains.”
“Aren’t you afraid there might be God Level guardians inside?”
“Of course not,” Su Yu said, smiling and shaking his head, “I dared to come here specifically because I know there are no God Level strong ones inside!”
He had just heard from Sky Dragon about the current situation on Skru Star; right now, all the God Level members of the Skrull Race were still on the Barren Continent.
Even though the “Endgame Sanctuary” had ended, in such a short time, they definitely wouldn’t be able to return to guard the giant Spring Eye.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, he might be able to drag Jennifer hidden in the Spring Eye out into the open.
“Come on, let’s break in!” Su Yu gathered magical power and flew towards the base’s protective shield.
Morning Star followed closely behind.
Moreover, she had figured it out; if Su Yu wasn’t afraid, why should she, being an immortal body, fear anything?
So, she sped up, surpassing Su Yu, and with a raise of her claw, a [Star Rainbow Focus] was imprinted on the base’s not so robust protective shield.
…
As Su Yu’s [Teleportation Portal] appeared above the base, alarms immediately sounded below.
Jennifer and Commander Monck were both taken aback.
They had never expected Su Yu to make a move on them.
“Quick, strengthen the base defense!” Jennifer said somewhat frantically.
“Got it.” Monck quickly stood up, and a series of defense commands were transmitted to key locations throughout the base via spiritual power.
Upon receiving the commands, the various defensive modules of the base were immediately activated, switching from “standby mode” to “full-load operation.”
However, the defenses were activated a bit late.
Within barely 5 seconds of Su Yu’s [Teleportation Portal] appearing in the sky above the base, the targeting mark of Morning Star’s [Star Rainbow Focus] had already imprinted on the shield.
([Star Rainbow Focus]: Creates a light spot that attaches to the target, absorbing and storing all spell damage that you and your teammates inflict. After 15 seconds, the light spot explodes, dealing twice the absorbed damage to the target. Casting time: 1 second, cooldown time: 2 minutes.)
[Star Rainbow Focus] is one of Morning Star’s most powerful shield-breaking skills, set to explode after 15 seconds.
But in such a short amount of time, the Skrull people could not possibly activate the shield to its maximum state, which provided the enemies with an opportunity.
Su Yu and Morning Star were of course well aware of this.
If the Skrull people had activated the defenses to the extreme, he and Morning Star may not even have been able to break through the shield and would have had to leave in defeat.
Now, by launching a surprise attack and catching them off guard, there was a high probability they could break through the shield and enter the base.
Therefore, after [Star Rainbow Focus] imprinted on the shield, Su Yu and Morning Star immediately unleashed all their burst skills, with a barrage of single-target and area spells raining down on the light spot like they cost nothing.
Su Yu’s Fifth Rank [Fire Dance Dazzling Flame Break] spell could cause extra damage to shields, and after activating his burst, he managed to cast fifty [Fire Dance Dazzling Flame Break] in rapid succession thanks to his ultra-fast casting speed.
When 15 seconds passed, the light spot punctually exploded, and the defense shield of the giant base had not even reached its maximum value, not even halfway there.
An earth-shattering explosion echoed above the base, and the shield was immediately blasted open with a huge gap.
“Now’s our chance!”
Morning Star jumped into Su Yu’s pet space with maximum speed, and Su Yu also released his [Flash Skill] at maximum speed, immediately entering deep into the giant base.
Once inside the base, the base’s antimatter railguns and various laser emitters aimed at him simultaneously.
But Su Yu was unfazed, as with his almost cooldown-free [Flash Skill], these attacks simply couldn’t hit him.
He then summoned all the creatures attached to his equipment.
[Elemental Harmony Breastplate]’s [Wind Lord Al’Akir];
[Legendary Mage Kadgar’s Spellbook]’s four [Arcane Puppets];
[Moon God Clan Badge]’s [Moon Goddess Illusion].
These summoned creatures were not weak, especially the [Moon Goddess Illusion], which was comparable in strength to him, although it had a somewhat short duration.
Under his control, the summoned creatures dispersed to wreak havoc around them.
He, on the other hand, released [Fire Phoenix Descend], targeting the base’s command center.
Boom!
[Fire Phoenix Descend] struck, and the command center was burned to ashes by the flames.
…
However, Jennifer was not in the command center.
The moment Su Yu appeared above the base, Jennifer knew they were in trouble and immediately fled the command center to save her life.
Now that Su Yu and Morning Star had broken in, escaping through a spaceship via the space cracks was basically impossible.
With no other choice, she could only conceal her presence, burrow deep underground, and attempt to save her life by escaping to the defensive fortifications within the mountains.
