Chapter 1148: Thorn Bug Project 1110 Chapter 1148: Thorn Bug Project 1110 The spread of the Tarxin Defense Network not only surprised the Skrull people, but also the armies of the outer alliance governnt and the workers on the construction sites of the defense lines, who also looked up in surprise.
Gazing at the additional “sun” that suddenly appeared in the sky, and the golden “spider web” that wound and interwove around the “sun,” everyone was extrely astonished.
People put down their work and discussed the special anomaly among themselves:
“What is this thing?”
“Don’t know. But with such strong Spirit Energy Fluctuations, it must be sothing significant!”
“Quick, call the united governnt!”
“The united governnt must already know; there are surveillance devices everywhere on the island.”
“Is this sothing the Skuru people ca up with?”
“Maybe. But it’s also possible that it’s our doing, who knows.”
“Right, our High-Ranking experts often co up with things we can’t anticipate, like continent-crossing teleportation arrays and space elevators.”
“It looks a bit dangerous, should we evacuate?”
“Evacuate? Where could we possibly go?”
“Let’s just wait for the official announcent from the united governnt. Trust that it won’t be long before they issue a statent, and then everything will beco clear.”
“Alright then.”
…
Everyone placed a lot of trust in the official stance of the united governnt.
Because in the past year, whenever any major event occurred, the united governnt’s official channels would be the first to announce it, informing everyone of the cause, process, and result of the events.
Moreover, the official announcents were always very accurate, never once having failed or contradicted the facts, thus they were highly trustworthy.
Hence, everyone had developed the habit of waiting for the official announcent whenever sothing happened, and making decisions only after reading it.
Indeed, the official channels of the united governnt did not disappoint.
Within ten or so minutes after the event, the officials had already published an announcent in the exclusive section of the Evo Ga forum about the incident:
“To our Blue Star siblings on the islands of Japan, you must have all seen the anomaly above our heads, naly the golden disc continuously extending golden threads.
Please rest assured, the anomaly will not cause any harm to anyone.
This anomaly cos from the ultimate defensive weapon that Su Yu exchanged from the Holy Silver Court of Secrets… (1,000 words omitted)”
In a span of 1,000 words, the official announcent provided a detailed introduction of the Tarxin Defense Network, evaluating it from every dinsion including its functionality, location, and impact.
At the end of the announcent, the officials also didn’t forget to once again reassure everyone—there’s no need for concern, the anomaly was made by one of our own, and it’s not only harmless but also greatly beneficial.
Upon seeing the official announcent, people on the islands of Japan were finally much relieved.
Originally, seeing the second “sun” in the sky had truly been unnerving. But now that they knew it was a secret weapon of their own, everyone instead started looking forward to the “sun” being as powerful as possible!
On the construction sites of the various defense lines, the workers gathered in groups and excitedly discussed:
“So, it’s a defensive weapon set up by our own people, we can be at ease now!”
“Actually, if you think about it, at this ti the only ones who could produce such an anomaly are us and the Skru. The war has not started yet, so the Skuru people can’t show up; therefore, it must be an anomaly we created!”
“That’s hindsight, Mr. Li!”
“Hahaha!”
“But going by the official’s introduction, this ‘Tarxin Defense Network’ seems pretty aweso!”
“No kidding? Boss Ke spent 10,000 credits and it’s a Planet Level creation, how could the effect be anything but impressive?”
“Definitely better than the defense lines we’re building.”
“I hope the defense network is powerful enough! It must block the Skrull invasion!”
…
Currently, there are no few human beings on the Neon Islands. The joint governnt forces, defense line constructors, logistics, transportation workers… all together, there are approximately three to four million people.
Looking at the Tarxin Defense Network above their heads, the whole island was filled with laughter and excitent.
Not only the people on the Neon Islands, but also those from the continents outside the islands were spirited and eagerly discussing the matter.
However, in contrast, the Skrull people in Spring Eye were not pleased, as the atmosphere inside their base was grave.
Half an hour later, the sky overhead was densely covered with golden threads, spanning one-fourth of the celestial do.
In face of this, the Skrull people could only helplessly watch on, completely powerless.
Let alone the fact that they could not leave Spring Eye.
Even if they could, it would hardly be possible for them to break through the layered defenses of the Blue Star High Order powerhouses overhead and disrupt the Tarxin Defense Network.
God Level Skrulls like Pu Langte and Manina III employed their spiritual power to penetrate the force field shield, attempting to reach the golden disc above.
But how could the Blue Star People let them do as they wished?
God Level figures from Blue Star like Su Yu, Pri Minister Cao Cao, and Emperor Qin Shi Huang simultaneously used their spiritual power to obstruct them.
The spiritual powers of both sides clashed near the golden disc, each wearing down the other.
From the outside, it appeared that neither side had the upper hand, with no party gaining an advantage.
But precisely because they were evenly matched, the Skrull God Levels were unable to touch the golden disc with their spiritual powers, and the naked eye could detect nothing.
The two sides found themselves at a stalemate.
…
However, just at that mont, sothing unexpected occurred—a Seventh Order Skrull powerhouse crossed the Space Cracks and arrived at Blue Star.
Half an hour before that, Pu Langte, Manina III, and Alice had co to Blue Star, and the Space Cracks began to shake violently, beginning their contraction.
It was precisely because the Space Cracks were unstable, that for the following half-hour, no Skrulls crossed over. Pu Langte and the others also did not require the help of those below the Seventh Order.
But just then, a Seventh Order cultivator crossed through the rift.
The mont this cultivator appeared, he attracted the attention of everyone present.
Pu Langte was about to reproach the newcor for not following orders when he saw who it was. His reproach was left unspoken, replaced with, “Morgan, what are you doing here?”
The newcor was none other than Morgan Sun.
Passing through the contracting, quaking Space Cracks was extrely dangerous. After Morgan Sun ca through, his protective magic shield was so deford by the pressure that it turned from oval into an irregular shape akin to coal slag, on the verge of shattering.
But Morgan paid no mind to that.
He first glanced at the spreading golden threads above, then swiftly flew to the five God Levels and said solemnly, “Elders, I co with a matter of great importance.”
Pu Langte and the others nodded without speaking, silently waiting for Morgan Sun to continue.
Morgan Sun didn’t beat around the bush and spoke gravely, “Elders, I wonder if you all rember the ‘Thorn Bug Project’?”
“The Thorn Bug Project?!” Hearing this, the gathered Skrull God Levels all showed signs of sudden realization.
That’s right, the “Thorn Bug Project”—how could they have forgotten about that?
…
The “thorn bug” in the “Thorn Bug Project” refers to a harmful insect on Skru Star that particularly feeds on crops. Moreover, these pests are nurous, swarming in overwhelming numbers, causing endless headaches for the Skrull farrs.
In fact, Blue Star has a similar pest, the “locust”, and both these insects pose a great danger to agriculture. Therefore, the “Thorn Bug Project” could be known as the “Locust Project” if it were set on Blue Star.
