However, there were simply too many "little black dots."
The High-tier Experts each did their part, doing everything they could to expand the coverage of their spells, but quite a few still slipped through the net.
Moreover, the detectors and robots released by the Skrulls were far from ordinary. Many had been fitted with substantial Magic Resistance based on the characteristics of Blue Star human spells. As a result, many of the "little black dots" withstood area-of-effect spells head-on and sped away with their damaged bodies.
Meanwhile, Su Yu and the others rapidly communicated through Psionic Energy about what to do.
Su Yu grabbed an intact miniature reconnaissance robot, forcibly dismantled it to inspect its internal structure, then communicated with the others through Psionic Energy:
"From what I can see, the Skrulls released nothing but detection devices. They contain several imaging instruments, sensors, and optical signal transmitters. Other than reconnaissance, they serve almost no other purpose, and they have no offensive capability."
Chancellor Cao quickly replied, "Of course they have no offensive capability. If the Skrulls dared release devices capable of attacking, they would be violating the ironclad rules.
"It seems the Skrulls wanted to use these reconnaissance devices to conduct one final survey of Blue Star before the Taxin Defense Network shut down."
Speaker Hu Jing agreed. "That's most likely the case."
"But these reconnaissance devices have extremely high Magic Resistance!" Zhong Feng said in surprise. "I saw the area-of-effect spells of many sixth-rank magic classes fail to destroy them!

"Perhaps because physical classes can't attack across such a wide area, the Skrulls focused on raising their Magic Resistance," Su Yu said at last. "Everyone, spread out, especially
