Chapter 969: Kill the chicken to warn the monkey Chapter 969: Kill the chicken to warn the monkey …
The protective shield of the base soon beca overwheld under the assault of the Blue Star main forces, flickering and trembling ceaselessly.
Without the supervision of the Skrull high-rank cultivators, and their continuous input of spiritual energy for repairs, the overall defense was naturally greatly diminished.
Adding to that, Pri Minister Cao and Emperor Qin Shi Huang unleashed their full power without any regard for restraint, causing the shield to quickly falter.
Creak——creak——
The shield uttered a series of “whimpers”.
About a minute later, the originally solid grey-black protective shield was sliced open by the last swing of the Sword of Many Proverbs, leaving a gap over ten ters wide.
“Go!”
Pri Minister Cao and the Emperor of Shu were very clear about what they needed to do.
They teleported at the sa ti, taking just a few short seconds to reach the entrance of the space cracks, blocking it.
The space cracks were the only escape route for the high-ranking Skrull within the base; blocking it, they beca fish on the chopping board.
…
But before they could block off the space cracks completely, so of the high-ranking Skrull had already fled through it.
Because there had been a full two minutes’ ti.
In these two minutes, six out of eight Skrull seventh order had escaped, and eleven of the sixth order had also gotten away. The rest were all blocked outside the space cracks.
The remaining two seventh order, one lacked the ans to make a desperate escape, while the other was reluctant to use their ans.
Seeing Pri Minister Cao and the other approaching so swiftly, the one hesitant to use his escape thod imdiately showed a look of regret on his face.
But he no longer had the chance to regret it.
Emperor Qin Shi Huang did not hold back.
His golden book spun in the sky, its forr heavy presence, akin to a mountain, vanished in an instant, and the book turned sharp to an extre degree, transforming into an indestructible sword.
Whoosh!
The regretful Skrull seventh order had no ti to react; he only felt a chill in his abdon before his body was cleaved in two at the waist.
The spiritual energy shield protecting his body was also bisected into two hemispheres by this single cut, without the slightest ability to resist.
Pri Minister Cao on the other side was just as formidable.
The hilt of his Sword of Many Proverbs once again split into tens of thousands of tiny swords.
The tiny swords shot out towards the other Skrull seventh order as their target.
This Skrull seventh order reacted quickly, boosting his spiritual energy shield to maximum defense and employing all his life-saving artifacts.
But the difference in levels between them was simply too great.
Pri Minister Cao was a genuine god-level peak, while the other was rely a lower seventh order.
A full-force attack from Pri Minister Cao would require even Pu Langte to focus intently, let alone a seventh order like him.
Thus, amidst the rain of swords, the Skrull seventh order was quickly turned into a porcupine. But because his physical body wasn’t strong enough, he instantly exploded into a mist of blood.
The two seventh orders were each annihilated by Pri Minister Cao and Emperor Qin Shi Huang, and the tremors from the fight spread far and wide.
So of the Skrull sixth order in the vicinity of these two suffered severe casualties from these shockwaves.
…
Pri Minister Cao and Emperor Qin Shi Huang decided to eliminate these two seventh orders for a couple of reasons, one being that the previous battles at the Spring Eye had left both sides with a lot of pent-up anger; another reason was to make an example out of them.
Previously, the Blue Star Humans had only captured the Skrull high-rankers, not killed them, and had even abstained from maltreatnt.
Take for instance the seventh-rank powerhouse Haidun Rieyang, who, while in the Blue Star’s prisoner of war camp, not only had plenty to eat and drink but also enjoyed virtually unrestricted freedom, even being taken on tours of human cities.
Perhaps it was because the Blue Star People treated their prisoners too well, which made the Skrull Expeditionary Force oblivious to what pain really is, not knowing the consequences of opposing the Blue Star People.
Now, by executing these two, Pri Minister Cao and Emperor Qin Shi Huang were issuing a warning to the Skrull people.
Inside the Spring Eye, the over sixty Skrull sixth order who hadn’t escaped were completely dumbfounded.
Seeing how simply the two seventh order had been killed before their eyes delivered a great visual shock to them!
What should we do? Could they also be going to die?
But now there was no chance to escape. How could these Sixth Order cultivators have the ability to escape into Spring Eye, passing two God Level peaks?
The only option before them was to surrender imdiately.
“Powerful Blue Star Humans, I am willing to surrender,” one said.
“I surrender,” said another.
“I also surrender, please do not kill ,” implored a third.
The group of Sixth Order cultivators shouted their surrenders in clear Mandarin while they threw their weapons to the ground and raised their hands high to show their sincerity.
Pri Minister Cao Cao’s icy gaze swept over the faces of all the Skru Sixth Order cultivators.
He did not scan a single person without them visibly shuddering.
However, he and Emperor Qin Shi Huang had no plans to continue killing these Sixth Order cultivators.
The death of two Seventh Order served as enough of a warning, capturing the remaining Sixth Order as prisoners to exchange for resources with the Skrull people was more practical; killing them would be wasteful.
“We surrender!” they called out.
“I too surrender,” another voiced echoed.
In the base below, cries of surrender continued one after another.
The base’s defensive weapons were extinguished one by one as ordinary soldiers and Fifth and Sixth Rank High Rank Cultivators gathered in the plaza to surrender to the Blue Star Humans.
In a battle of this level, even without their surrender, they could not inflict any harm on the Blue Star Humans. Moreover, most of the troops in the base were Lunkete People who lacked the resolve to die for the expeditionary force, so everyone was quick to surrender.
…
anwhile, in the Skru Star top-tier powerhouse video conference room, it was dead silent.
Within the various video feeds, one face stood out as the darkest—it was the Lunkete God Level Sidim without a doubt.
In this battle, all the fallen were his subordinates! A majority of the Fifth and Sixth Rank cultivators who had been captured were also his disciples.
Witnessing two Seventh Order subordinates being instantly killed by Emperor Qin Shi Huang and his ally, Sidim felt as if his heart was bleeding.
Initially, he had stationed his forces at Mount Kilimanjaro because participating in its defense would grant them a share of fifty percent of the Spiritual Energy from Spring Eye.
Now, with the death of two Seventh Order, it could be said that the loss was enormous!
Even if those captured Fifth and Sixth Rank cultivators could be ransod back by the joint governnt’s funds, this was still considered a severe loss.
After about half a minute of silence, words squeezed out from Sidim’s clenched teeth, “I’m going to the Space Cracks to see the extent of my subordinates’ injuries.”
As he finished speaking, his screen went black; he had already left the video conference room.
The expression on the faces of the others in the video conference room was one of helplessness; no one had expected the Blue Star People to be so ruthless this ti, to actually kill two of their Seventh Order!
It was known that the Skrull people had a total of 161 Seventh Order cultivators. Now, with two dead, and adding Haidun Rieyang who had died recently, there were only 158 left.
Each Seventh Order was, without doubt, one of the top personages on the planet!
The loss of two in one go, if this news spread out…
At that thought, Manina took a deep breath. No matter what, they must not let this incident leak out!
Lunkete Chairman Kusman also aptly said, “Your Majesty Manina, we must seal off the news of this battle and prevent any dia from reporting the deaths of the two Seventh Order, especially you must not let the rebel organizations know.”
“Of course,” Manina nodded and ordered AI Blue Devourer, “Blue Devourer, inform everyone aware of this battle that without my permission, no one is allowed to reveal any information related to this battle! Should there be any leaks, the leaker must face the maximum penalty!”
“Understood, Your Majesty,” responded AI Blue Devourer imdiately.
At this mont, Manina’s eyes flickered with a sudden thought—he might be able to use this incident to his advantage.
He instructed AI Blue Devourer again, “Blue Devourer, there’s another thing. In the next few days, work with Sunshine and the other AIs to keep a close watch on the internet. The instant you find soone spreading information about the battle, notify right away!
Particularly in these first few days when the Blue Star People have just arrived at our Skru Star, they are likely to speak out about matters related to righteousness. If soone spreads true information related to the battle, then that person is undoubtedly a traitor!”
Manina had long suspected that there were traitors within the Skrull people, especially those from Beak Country’s anti-union organizations. He truly doubted whether these people were in collusion with the Blue Star People.
But at present, he had no solid evidence to confirm that they were traitors.
Perhaps from this incident, they could determine whether Cindy Doppler and others were indeed traitors.
“Understood, Your Majesty!” AI Blue Devourer answered once more.
