Level 9 Soul Guidance Shells! Zhongli Bai's Death God Demon Puppet! Two Hits with One Shot!
"Enough!!"
"Do you really want to start a war?!"
After Heaven Dragon Douluo unleashed his Martial Soul Avatar, a colossal Dark Demon Dragon coiled high in the sky, its eyes looking down on Red Dragon Douluo and his companion.
[Douluo Continent · Evil-Eyed Lecherous Tiger Dai Mubai]:
"He's rattled, he's rattled!"
[Douluo Continent · Eat My Sausage Oscar]:
"Boss Dai, if those troops belonged to your Star Luo Empire, you'd be even more rattled than he is!"
[Douluo Continent · Resting Fire Phoenix Ma Hongjun]:
"Bai, honestly, how can you make snide remarks at a time like this!
Can't you see Phoenix Douluo and the others are still struggling to hold them off? Damn, just watching the sky screen has me worried sick. I wish I could jump in there and burn that ship to ashes for them!!"
As Heaven Dragon Douluo roared, he breathed out purplish-black dragonfire to intercept the bombardment. Behind him, Zhongli Bai, Yan Shaozhe, and the others did the same, but even these Titled Douluo could only cover so much ground.
Lives were still being snuffed out across the battlefield.
At last, the first round of bombardment thinned, then fell completely silent.
More than a fifth of the Sun Moon Empire's forces were dead or wounded. Their formation had fallen apart, and pained screams, officers' shouts, and the cries of mounts tangled into utter chaos.
Red Dragon Douluo still watched Heaven Dragon Douluo hovering before him with a cold, mocking gaze. His voice was as icy as a god of death reaping lives.
"Prepare the second round of fire!"
At his command, the mouths of more than a hundred Heavy Fixed Soul Guidance Cannons around the Wanderer lit up one after another. Their dark barrels locked onto the entire coastline once more.
The second round began charging.
Zhongli Bai stepped forward. He was the Sun Moon Empire's state preceptor and a Limit Douluo.
He looked at Red Dragon Douluo opposite him. His voice was hoarse and piercing, steeped in an unnatural chill.
"You think this bombardment can hurt us? Or do you truly believe we can only stand here and take it?"
"Listen to me, you bastards from the so-called Blue Silver Continent. If Heaven Dragon and I didn't have to protect the soldiers of our Sun Moon Legion, the two of us alone could tear your so-called warship apart!"
"If we stop caring about the cost, neither you nor that brat piloting the Mecha will escape. Even that warship will be staying here on the Sun Moon Continent!!"
Zhongli Bai's voice carried clearly across the coast, reminding everyone watching before the sky screen of the same thing.
[Douluo Continent · Seven Treasure Sect Master Ning Fengzhi]:
"He's right. Look at those top-tier Titled Douluo. They're barely injured. If they weren't shielding the soldiers below, they'd be strong enough to charge straight at that Mothership."
[Douluo Continent · Theory Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang]:
"Sect Master Ning is right. From my perspective as the Theory Grandmaster, this so-called Mothership is only useful for long-range firepower. Once someone gets close, perhaps any Titled Douluo could seize complete control of it!
In other words, it only looks terrifying. Once the fighting starts, it's just a heap of scrap metal!"
"Your Excellency Heaven Dragon, charge in! Forget about us and destroy that Mothership!"
"State Preceptor, avenge us!!"
"Your Excellency Phoenix, sacrifices are inevitable! We're willing to die for our country. Just avenge us!"
The battlefield erupted with fervor. The wounded soldiers had long been seething, some even sinking into despair. But after that reminder, they realized the Limit Douluo had never fought at full strength.
And that changed everything.
If the deaths of a few could bring down that colossal monster, they would gladly die!!
Heaven Dragon Douluo, suspended in the air, glanced at Zhongli Bai beside him with a complicated look.
The state preceptor was every bit as calculating and ruthless as his reputation suggested. Heaven Dragon Douluo served the imperial family, but he usually spent his time in seclusion cultivating. He had only heard of this newly appointed state preceptor.
Zhongli Bai's words had sounded like a threat to the people from the Blue Silver Continent. In truth, he had used the soldiers' outrage to pressure the Sun Moon Empire's Titled Douluo into acting!
Now those Titled Douluo could attack without holding anything back.
After all, the soldiers themselves had said they were willing to die!
This Zhongli Bai was frighteningly shrewd!
He had sold out the soldiers below, and they were still counting the money for him.
Zhongli Bai's mouth twitched almost imperceptibly. He took another step forward, gazing at the enormous warship with burning eyes.
"Heh. Foolish natives."
Inside Crimson Typhoon's cockpit, Ye Gucheng gave a derisive laugh. Then his voice rang out, merciless as an autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves.
"Wanderer, prepare both secondary cannons. Lock onto those two—
Morons!"
"Two shots at once!"
"Fire!!"
The earlier barrage had come only from ordinary Soul Cannons. The two Level 9 Soul Guidance Secondary Cannons and the Level 10 Soul Guidance Main Cannon had merely charged in preparation; none had actually fired.
But since these people wanted to witness the power of the Wanderer's three main weapons, he would let them experience it firsthand.
Each of the two Level 9 Soul Guidance Secondary Cannons was now loaded with two Level 9 Fixed Soul Guidance Shells. That was what he meant by two shots at once.
Firing two Fixed Soul Cannon Shells from one Soul Cannon at the same time would make the effect even more devastating.
The Sun Moon Empire's troops showed signs of regaining their morale. He would crush them back into the mire with the most terrifying attack yet!
They wanted to lift their heads again?
Not a chance!
Boom!
The instant the Level 9 Soul Guidance Shells left their barrels, the roar shook the seas.
To the naked eye, all that could be seen were two thick columns of light streaking away at blistering speed, the energy within the shells compressed to its limit.
The columns swept over the sea, instantly vaporizing the water that rose beneath them. Space twisted along their path. Nothing could stop this strike!
Heaven Dragon Douluo's and Zhongli Bai's expressions changed drastically. Goosebumps broke out all over them, as though something lethally dangerous had locked onto them. Neither could afford to feign calm. With simultaneous roars, they drove their Martial Soul Avatars to full power!!
Only then did Zhongli Bai's Martial Soul fully reveal itself: a gigantic, death-god-like demon puppet wielding a purplish-black scythe, its aura sinister and terrifying.
The two Limit Douluo acted together, not to attack, but to defend.
Dark dragon power intertwined with Death God Power, forming layer upon layer of defensive barriers!
The moment the shells fired, both men knew they could not dodge. If they could not dodge, they had to endure!
Eighteen Soul Rings lit up in succession, their Soul Skills reinforcing the two men's defenses again and again.
They were Limit Douluo indeed. In moments, layers of black Soul Power shrouded that stretch of sky like an enormous turtle shell.
But when the blue-white columns struck, blinding white light swallowed everyone's sight.
Boom------!!
Heaven and earth turned white. Everyone on the battlefield went deaf in an instant.
Soldiers on the ground collapsed in swathes like wheat beneath a scythe, knocked unconscious by the shock wave. The Sun Moon Empire's Titled Douluo in the air could no longer hold steady either. They were hurled backward, swaying like drunks.
Red Dragon Douluo carried Ye Gucheng backward through the air, escaping the aftershock of the collision.
When the dust settled and the blinding light faded, the sight before them made every viewer watching the sky screen draw a sharp breath.
