Chapter 985 Killing the Goose that Lays the Golden Eggs?
Then, Su Yu and others continued to seal the spiritual energy in the bodies of the senior Skrulls.
After their spiritual energy is sealed, these high-level Skrulls are not much stronger than third-level practitioners, and it is difficult for them to cause any harm.
During the process of sealing the psychic energy, Su Yu discovered that the cat Chenxing had been staring at Senior Yang Jian's trident with curiosity on his face.
He knew what Chenxing was curious about, so he asked for her: "Senior Yang Jian, how did your trident become more powerful with each battle? Based on your performance just now, your final strength is no less than the peak of an ordinary god!"
After saying this, Su Yu added: "Of course, if you don't want to tell it, or it involves your secret, then there is no need to tell us."
"Oh, you said this." Senior Yang Jian smiled and had no intention of hiding it: "My trident is made from meteorites from outer space, and it has a strong absorption effect when it is just born.
This weapon can absorb the power of other types around it bit by bit during the battle, gathering it together without dissipating. Take the battle just now as an example. It not only absorbed a small part of my power, but also absorbed a small part of your, Morning Star, and Elizabeth's power, and condensed the power into the core.
It is precisely because of this that the power of the trident will increase with each battle.
All my old friends know these things, and there is nothing they cannot say about them. "
"Oh, that's it." Su Yu and the cat Chenxing nodded at the same time.
Senior Yang Jian's weapons were actually made from meteorites from outer space.
As we all know, extraterrestrial meteorites come from the entire galaxy and have all kinds of strange properties. It is not uncommon for them to be able to temporarily absorb the surrounding spiritual energy and use it for their own use.
It's just that Senior Yang Jian's characteristic of "the more he fights, the braver he becomes" is really useful! There may be even more outstanding performances in future wars.
…
Just as Su Yu was thinking about it, the voice of senior Yang Jian came to his ears again.
"Little friend Su Yu." The old man pointed at the anti-barite drill below and frowned: "The anti-barite drill placed by the Skrulls, should we destroy it? Or should we keep it? Continue to operate and extract all the spiritual energy from the spring? "
"Huh? Of course, destroy it! Otherwise?" Su Yu blurted out, is this also a problem?
Now that Senior Yang Jian's trident has cooled down, he put the trident into his body and continued:
"If we destroy the anti-barite drill as before, that's okay.
But if we don't destroy the anti-barite drill, and instead keep it running, we'll have a huge amount of psychic energy to invest in the final battle!
Of course, this is indeed killing the chicken to obtain the egg, but the benefits gained from "killing the chicken" may really prevent us from starving to death.
Little friend Su Yu, what do you think? "
The amount of spiritual energy extracted from a giant spring using an anti-barite drill must be an astronomical figure!
If they make good use of the anti-gravity crystal drill now, the psychic energy they obtain can save many people from dying in future decisive battles!
The act of killing the goose to get the eggs will definitely be scolded by future generations, but if they didn't kill the goose to get the eggs, maybe they would have no descendants.
That's why senior Yang Jian raised this question to Su Yu.
"This..." Su Yu understood the meaning of Senior Yang's words and didn't know how to decide for a moment.
According to his past thinking, he must have dismantled the anti-barite drill without even thinking about it.
But now there are only two months left before the final battle.
If they had just mined the giant spring regularly in the past two months, the spiritual energy they would have obtained would definitely be less than 1% of the anti-barite drill.
Did they choose to dismantle the anti-recrystallization drill? Or choose to harvest a lot of spiritual energy and let the spring wither?
This time, Su Yu really hesitated.
…
Alijie, Chenxing and Tina also knew what Su Yu was struggling with.
In order to help Su Yu solve his problems, the three of them first used their mental power to have a small-scale discussion.
After the discussion, Alijie, as a representative, said to Su Yu: "Nemesis, do you want to hear our opinion on whether to extract the spiritual energy from the spring?"
"Oh? What do you think? Tell me and listen!" Su Yu's eyes lit up and he urged.
After all, Alijie is the head of state of the Plantagenet Empire. She has learned to handle government affairs since she was a child. She must have her own unique understanding of whether to kill the goose to retrieve the eggs. Su Yu really wants to hear their thoughts.
"We think it's best to destroy the anti-barite drill device." Alijie said seriously.
"Destroy?"
"That's right." Alijie explained: "Because if you don't destroy the anti-barite drill, it will be equivalent to setting a very bad precedent.
For example, the bird leaves in our world, or the cigarettes and liquor in your world. When people try these things for the first time, they know that they are harmful to the body, so they feel very guilty. But after the first time, there will soon be a second and third time..."
"For another example, your Blue Star fashions men's and women's clothing." Chenxing suddenly interrupted at this time.
"This counts." Alijie smiled and continued: "You Blue Star people are now using the anti-bary crystal drill device to obtain a large amount of spiritual energy, and you will taste the benefits in a short period of time. Next, you will definitely use the crystal drill device Squeeze more springs and feel less and less guilt-free.
As the war progresses, you are likely to become dependent on the "anti-barite drill mining" model, because this model can obtain a large amount of psychic energy at no cost, and you will repeat this over and over again.
In the end, you will even drain all the springs in the world!
Don't think this can't happen, if you set a bad precedent, things like this will follow.
When the last spiritual spring of your Blue Star is drained, even if you win the war with the Skrulls, you Blue Star humans will be completely destroyed due to the exhaustion of your spiritual energy.
You have to think clearly about all this. "
Listening to Alijie's analysis, Su Yu felt the hairs on his back stand up.
What Alijie said makes sense. The Blue Star humans will definitely think about the second time after having the first time.
If all these "hens" that lay "golden eggs" are slaughtered, Blue Star humans will have no future.
Su Yu and senior Yang Jian exchanged glances with each other.
Afterwards, Su Yu smiled bitterly and said: "Senior, we should destroy the anti-barite drill. Even if our generation makes more sacrifices, we must leave hope for the future of mankind."
"I have no objection." Senior Yang Jian stroked his beard and said to Su Yu using voice transmission: "But little friend Su Yu, I hope you can master a few anti-bary crystal drills yourself.
If one day mankind is really on the verge of life and death, I hope you can squeeze out all the spiritual energy in all the springs and fight the enemy desperately.
Otherwise, if all human beings are to become extinct, how can we leave any hope? "
"Okay...I will do as you say." Su Yu nodded solemnly.
At the same time, he solemnly thanked the two people and one cat: "Thank you for providing me with such valuable advice, otherwise I might not have thought of this."
"You're welcome, we just did what we could." Alijie smiled calmly, and both Tina and Chenxing also smiled.
It's just that no one noticed that Tina's smile seemed a bit forced now, her brows furrowed slightly, and her expression was very unnatural. I don’t know if it’s because of the excessive consumption in the battle just now.
…
[End Space Blade]!
During Su Yu's casting, a translucent space blade nearly a kilometer long stretched across the sky.
brush!
The space blade slashed down from high in the air, cutting the anti-barite drill in half like cutting tofu.
Su Yu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the rumbling explosion inside the anti-barite drill after it was chopped into pieces.
At least now, he doesn't have to worry about whether to extract the spiritual energy from this spring.
However, what senior Yang Jian said made sense. It was time to secretly hide a batch of anti-barite diamond instruments. If the Blue Star humans really come to a life-or-death situation someday, having these things will give them an extra layer of protection.
Su Yu calmed down, fell into the air one kilometer away from the Skrull base, and shouted in the Skrull language below: "Skrull defenders in the base, listen, I am Su Yu, a blue star god-level powerhouse.
Your god-level powerhouse Elizabeth has abandoned you and run away. 13 of the 76 high-level powerhouses above level six have been killed and 63 have surrendered.
Now, I ask you to throw down your weapons, raise your hands and surrender immediately! Anyone who resists will be killed without mercy! "
Su Yu's voice quickly spread throughout the Skrull base.
The 15,000 Skrull soldiers in the base did not resist. They all raised their hands obediently, threw away their weapons and went out to surrender.
This battle had little to do with them. Besides, the high-level powerful men had already surrendered, so it was meaningless for them to resist, so they surrendered very simply.
Seniors Su Yu and Yang Jian flew close to the ground to supervise the surrender of the Skrulls.
At the same time, they also spread the good news of the victory through the AI Blue Whale to the coalition government headquarters and the large army of Blue Star high-level practitioners who were arriving.
The good news made no mention of the anti-barite controversy.
Upon hearing the good news of victory, the coalition government and the army were shocked and their morale was greatly boosted!
Speaker Hu Jing was even more delighted.
Originally, according to the calculations of the AI Blue Whale, their Blue Star monks could only take down one giant spring, and there might also be greater sacrifices.
But now, only half an hour has passed, and they have successfully recaptured a spring without any blood!
They didn't expect this at all beforehand!
"Blue Whale, your prediction was miscalculated this time!" Speaker Hu Jing joked to the AI Blue Whale at the United Government Headquarters: "Senior Su Yu and Yang Jian took just over half an hour to get back a spring. This is different from yours." The predictions are different.”
"Comrade Speaker." AI Blue Whale retorted calmly: "This is mainly because I made a serious mistake in judging Su Yu's strength.
There is no information about his suit in my database. The entire calculation model is still calculated based on his original strength, so this serious umbrella appears. "
"It's not your fault." Speaker Hu Jing waved his hand: "Well, Blue Whale, now that you have enough data, can you recalculate how many springs we can build before Prime Minister Cao and the First Emperor return?"
"Okay." AI Blue Whale replied.
There was no delay in the AI Blue Whale's calculations. As soon as it finished its last sentence, the calculation results were already out: "Comrade Speaker, how many springs we can capture depends on the reaction of the Skrulls.
In my calculations, there are two possibilities: the first possibility is that the Skrulls let two god-level peaks, Plant and Manina III, come to Blue Star to garrison, so we can only capture 4 more springs at most;
If the Skrulls didn't let two god-level peaks come to Blue Star to garrison, we should be able to capture 6 springs. "
"Is that so?" Speaker Hu Jing nodded thoughtfully.
But what he didn’t know was that AI Blue Whale’s predictions were quite accurate.
At the same time, at the Skru top-level meeting, Manina, Kusman and four Skrull gods were discussing this matter.
Kusman asked: "Should we invite two peak gods to go to Blue Star to guard the spring? In this way, we can mine more spiritual energy from two giant springs."
Sturm looked at Manina: "Your Majesty, Emperor Lieyang, what do you think about this?"
After Elizabeth was seriously injured and dying, the leadership of the top-level meeting was handed over to Sturm, the strongest among all the gods.
Sturm attached great importance to Manina's opinion, so he asked him first.
"I think..." Manina thought for a moment and replied, "I think we can ask the ancestors and Mr. Plant to go over.
The two gods from Blue Star cannot take action on our planet because of the principle of fairness in war, so we don't have to deliberately guard against them.
In comparison, it is more important to obtain more spiritual energy."
"But the only disadvantage is..." Kusman frowned and said, "We don't know when the terminal secret realm ends. If our gods are not next to the secret realm when the secret realm ends, then the situation of our sixth-level practitioners entering the secret realm will be very dangerous and may be besieged by hostile races!"
"Indeed, this point must be guarded against." Manina nodded in agreement.
There are a total of 16 sixth-level Skrull practitioners who entered the terminal secret realm this time, all of whom are the best of the new generation in various countries.
Their lives and safety are of great concern to all Skrulls, and the United Government dare not leave them alone in the middle of the Savage Continent.
"How about this?" Stim said, "When the secret realm ends, the only ones who may attack them are hostile races such as bald eagles.
We let Lords Plant and Manina III show their strength, warn these hostile races not to take action, and promise to give them some resources. This should effectively protect the safety of our sixth-level practitioners."
No matter when, the "carrot + stick" strategy is always useful.
Manina thought for a while and nodded immediately: "Well, I think this method is feasible, what do you think?"
"I agree."
"I agree too."
...
In the top-level meeting room, Kusman and the other three gods expressed their agreement, and the plan was passed unanimously.
Stim nodded and said, "Since everyone agrees, then it's settled.
After the two peak god-level masters return, they will go to Rocky Mountain Spring and Mitchell Spring respectively;
Otas and I will go to Atul Peak Spring. Lai, you and Heber will go to Osorno Spring.
Does everyone understand?"
"Understood." Everyone answered.
