Whether they were the Holy Spirit Cult's Evil Soul Masters who longed for the Abyss to descend or the powerhouses of the Sun Moon Empire and the Douluo Allied Army who did not believe in it, everyone grew wary the moment they truly realized the Abyss had arrived.
The Abyss was, after all, an entirely new world-a world from another plane.
It held opportunities, but it also presented an enormous challenge.
For the ordinary soldiers defending their homeland, the oppressive weight overhead made them instinctively tighten their grips on their weapons. A sense of uncertainty and bewilderment lingered in their hearts, as though only the weapons in their hands could give them a shred of confidence.
"Pass down the order! Have all three Soul Engineer artillery positions prepare. The moment the Abyssal army arrives, open fire at full power. Don't spare a single round of ammunition or a drop of soul power!"
"Have the four Hand of National Protection Soul Engineer Legions and the six standing Soul Engineer Legions activate their linked soul tool arrays and await orders in place!"
"Soldiers on the front line, check the fire oil, rolling stones, and firearms!"
"Charge the Light-Splitting Atomic Ray positions..."
Inside the Sun Moon army's command tent, Ju Zi sat in the center, swiftly relaying information through one Heavenly Mirror after another.
Ju Zi was the commander-in-chief of the Sun Moon Empire's allied forces for this campaign. Under Jiang Hai's instructions, she could draw on all the resources of the Civilization Research Institute, and the Heavenly Mirrors were soul tools she had strongly requested.
The Civilization Research Institute had stripped out the Heavenly Mirrors' research and storage capabilities, leaving only their communication function. It had rushed to produce over a thousand Heavenly Mirrors, ensuring that every battalion-level combat unit had one.
