"BT, don't waste ammunition. Start with the level-seven Fixed Soul Guidance Cannons, then move to the level-eights!"

Looking at the dense swarm of mecha before him.

Luo Feng felt not panic, but rather excitement.

This was his debut on the Douluo Continent.

It was also the foundation of his growth.

If not for the previous naval battle, he wouldn't even have known the underlying logic of this Douluo Continent.

For a transmigrator like him who possessed a Vanguard Titan, this was essentially just a monster-grinding game.

The more he killed, the more experience he gained, and the higher his level would become!

[Rest assured, Ironclad. I have already formulated an attack plan; you only need to approve the results.]

In truth, although the enemy had hundreds of mecha.

The strongest among them were only Black-Grade.

At least for now, the radar had not detected any red mecha.

That meant they were trash!

To deal with enemies of this level.

Theoretically, one level-seven Fixed Soul Guidance Cannon could take out three.

Setting aside defense and evasion, two would be enough to finish the job.

And a single level-eight Fixed Soul Guidance Cannon could theoretically take out eight to ten.

Not to mention that the enemy's current formation was extremely dense.

With a single shot, the splash damage alone would achieve results beyond imagination!

"Excellent!"

"Open fire! Blow them to hell!"

[Understood, Ironclad.]

As BT's cold, emotionless mechanical voice faded, the Vanguard Titan's massive metallic body suddenly halted in mid-air.

It entered a state of absolute firepower discharge.

"Click-clack-clack-clack!"

A series of teeth-gritting, heavy metallic mechanical locking sounds exploded in the sky.

The Vanguard Titan's shoulder armor folded outward, revealing a dense, honeycomb-like matrix of micro-missile launchers;

At the same time, the hidden weapon bay in the mecha's chest swung wide open.

More than thirty [Level-Seven Fixed Soul Guidance Cannons] glowing with a ghostly blue light, along with fifteen larger [Level-Eight Fixed Soul Guidance Cannons] emitting a blinding red glare.

Under the guidance of the Titan's internal fire-control system, which possessed computing speeds comparable to a god, they simultaneously completed ignition and targeting!

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"

In the sky, it was as if a reverse meteor shower had begun!

Forty or fifty lethal streaks of light, trailing long tails of flame.

They carved bizarre, death-defying arcs through the sky that completely defied aerodynamics.

It was that classic Itano Circus-style trajectory (derived from the mecha aerial combat settings of the Gundam series)!

With an overwhelming, unavoidable posture, they whistled toward the dense Federal mecha legion ahead.

At this moment, the hundreds of Federal mecha opposite were still advancing rapidly in a tight combat formation.

Inside the leading Federal Black-Grade mecha.

The commander looked at the solitary dot on his radar, a sneer of contempt hanging on his lips.

"A single unknown mecha model with a death wish dares to stand before our Federal East Sea City First Mecha Battalion?

All units, maintain formation. Use main cannons for crossfire coverage and blast him into..."

"Beep-beep-beep-beep!!!"

Before the commander could finish his sentence, the green radar screen inside the cockpit was instantly filled with a blinding, blood-red hue.

The highest-level anti-air alarm sounded, nearly piercing his eardrums.

"Warning! Ultra-high-energy weapon lock detected!"

"Warning! Quantity: Extremely dense! Energy level: Level-seven to level-eight!"

"Evasion impossible! Evasion impossible!"

"What?"

The sneer on the commander's face froze instantly, replaced by a look of ghostly terror.

Dozens of level-seven or higher Fixed Soul Guidance Cannons?

Even the Federation's top-tier interstellar motherships could not complete such a terrifying, concentrated volley of fire instantly without a lengthy charging process!

This simply did not conform to the fundamental logic of Soul Guidance technology!

However, the Grim Reaper would not grant him the time to ponder the laws of physics.

"BOOM!!!"

The first Level 7 Fixed Soul Guidance Cannon landed precisely on the left flank of the Federation mecha formation.

This was merely the beginning.

Immediately following it was a series of chain explosions, dense as firecrackers but ten thousand times more terrifying than thunder!

"BOOM-BOOM-BOOM-BOOM-BOOM!!!"

Over a stretch of sea no more than a few kilometers wide, more than thirty Level 7 Soul Guidance Cannons and fifteen Level 8 Soul Guidance Cannons detonated.

Like deathly red lotuses blooming in purgatory, they erupted one after another!

The violent energy storms overlapped and compressed, ultimately forming an absolute zone of destruction capable of swallowing even light itself.

This was entirely a one-sided massacre, an unreasonable, dimension-crushing strike.

Those [Purple-Grade Mecha], which cost a fortune to build on the Douluo Continent and were regarded as the ultimate dream by countless commoner soul masters, were as fragile as thin sheets of paper at the center of the Level 7 Fixed Soul Guidance Cannon explosions.

Their prideful soul power defensive shields could not even hold for half a second before shattering like soap bubbles.

Subsequently, the intense heat and shockwaves directly tore apart and vaporized the outer armor of the Purple-Grade Mecha.

And those [Black-Grade Mecha], which usually stood high above and claimed to be able to take on a hundred enemies on the battlefield, met an equally miserable end.

When fifteen Level 8 Fixed Soul Guidance Cannons exploded amidst the barrage, the terrifying penetrating power and explosive yield of the Level 8 cannons became the death warrants for these Black-Grade Mecha.

"No! Block it! Block it for me!"

The Federation mecha commander frantically squeezed his Soul Douluo-level soul power, attempting to prop up the final defense of his Black-Grade Mecha.

But he discovered in despair that, under the Vanguard Titan's monstrous fire-control lock, a full three Level 8 Soul Guidance Cannons had formed a triangular pattern, locking onto him relentlessly!

"THUD—CRACK!"

The sturdy chest armor of the Black-Grade Mecha was pierced instantly.

Violent plasma flames raged inside the mecha, followed immediately by a bone-chilling secondary explosion!

The sky was dyed a blindingly vivid scarlet.

Accompanied by the chain of explosions, a tragic "rainstorm" filled with the violence and cruelty of the industrial age fell from the sky.

It consisted of countless torn steel fragments, burning soul guidance batteries, and broken mechanical treads and arms.

And mixed among these cold machine parts were even more shocking sights.

Those Federation mecha pilots, who had originally hidden in their cockpits believing themselves to be indestructible, met the destructive shockwave with their physical bodies the moment their armor was torn away.

Charred limbs, broken torsos, and blood that had not yet fully congealed, mixed with burning machine oil, splattered down into the surging East Sea below.

The surface of the sea was instantly dyed a tragic dark red.

[Ding! Congratulations on successfully destroying the enemy Purple-Grade Mecha cluster and killing 142 Soul Emperor-level mecha pilots. Your soul power level has increased by 1!] [Ding! Congratulations on successfully destroying the enemy Black-Grade Mecha formation and killing 45 Soul Saint and Soul Douluo-level commanders. Your soul power level has increased by 2!] [Ding! Current soul power level: 91 (Titled Douluo)!]

Luo Feng, sitting in the cockpit of the Vanguard Titan, listened to the system notifications that sounded like celestial music in his mind.

Feeling the terrifying soul power within his body undergoing another qualitative change, he curled his lips into a grim, death-like smile.

Is this what the ancients meant by "the success of one general is built upon ten thousand withered bones"?

However, if I want to level up quickly from here on out, I'm afraid I'll have to start hunting Titled Douluo!
