I'm afraid but you can't do that in Admin Tools, since it's not the right tool, you should use a CDN such as CloudFlare.
Before Admin Tools kicks in, you have to allocate and use the following resources:
On the other hand, using a CDN will block the request even before it reaches your site, making a more effective solution.
