Douluo: Dragon King's Star Devouring Wings

Chapter 643

Since the Sun Moon Continent drifted to the Douluo Continent 16,000 years ago, the Sun Moon Empire, which lived on the Sun Moon Continent, and the Empire, which lived on the Douluo Continent, have been at war.

From the first Holy War when the continents collided, to the second Holy War in which Lingbing Douluo Huo Yuhao stopped the Sun Moon Empire from unifying the continent, and the third Holy War in which Huo Yuhao's son Xu Yunhan unified the entire continent.

Three holy wars have already broken out between several countries, and today, a fourth holy war is about to break out.

In order to keep enemies out of their borders, the Star Luo Empire and the Dou Ling Empire have practically laid out all their resources.

The allied forces of the two countries staked almost everything, and the number of ships they deployed reached two-thirds of the total fleet dispatched by the Sun and Moon Federation.

However, with the advancement of soul guidance technology to this point, it is no longer an era where victory can be achieved simply by sheer numbers.

In terms of both soul guidance technology and the quality of soul masters, the two empires were far inferior to the combined forces of Tang Sect and Shrek Academy.

This war was less a war and more a one-sided massacre.

Tang Sect was the largest arms dealer in both the Star Luo Empire and the Dou Ling Empire, so they knew all too well the performance of the weapons they sold.

Moreover, the Tang Clan isn't foolish enough to sell them their most advanced weapons.

In other words, the weapons of the Star Luo Empire and the Dou Ling Empire were already generationally inferior to those of the Tang Sect, not to mention that the two empires were far inferior to the Tang Sect in terms of the quality of their Soul Masters.

For the soldiers of Xingluo and Douling, all they felt was a sudden, blinding red light as if the sky had been torn apart.

The Tang Clan's mech squadron seemed to materialize out of thin air, appearing abruptly before them. As an arms dealer for both the Star Luo Empire and the Dou Ling Empire, the Tang Clan naturally knew how to evade their radar.

Hundreds of blue soul-guided rays swept across like the Grim Reaper's scythe. The shield of the Star Luo Battle Spirit's flagship instantly erupted with blinding lightning.

However, their good fortune was short-lived. The soul-guided shields of the two imperial warships were torn apart in an instant. Under the attack of the soul-guided rays, towering pillars of fire instantly rose from the surface of the ships, and the armor flowed like molten wax under the scorching of the soul-guided rays.

"Activate the mech force!"

The commanders of the two imperial fleets roared out orders. Dozens of black-class mechs were launched from the warships, their soul-guided blades tracing eerie blue paths through the air.

However, even though they are both Black-level mechs, how could the mechs of the two great empires possibly compare to the mech squadron of the Tang Clan?
The Tang Clan's mech squad swept past at twice their speed, firing their soul-guided guns, each shot severely damaging the enemy's protective shield.

The soul-guided beams from the mechs of the two great empires struck the soul-guided beams of the Tang Clan mech squad, only causing tiny ripples.

However, the soul power blades of the Tang Sect mecha can easily cut through the armor of the two great empire mechas.

Suddenly, a mech pilot from one of the two great empires let out a scream mixed with the sound of metal tearing as his mech was pierced.

Before being hit, a mech pilot from one of the two great empires desperately fired all his soul-guided cannons at the Tang Clan's fleet. However, a blue soul power barrier suddenly appeared on the Tang Clan's Thousand Hands mothership, engulfing all the flames of the explosion.

On the sea, ships of the two great empires were sunk one after another, and huge mushroom clouds rose into the sky.

Burning rare metals spread across the sea, turning the water into an eerie sea of ​​fire. Sailors who had fallen into the water struggled in the flames; some were smashed into the deep sea by the wreckage of mechs, while others were lifted into the air by the blast waves of the explosions.

The soul-guided rays of the Tang Sect's mech squadron were still roaring, each beam capable of tearing through the hulls of the two great imperial warships and incinerating the soldiers inside into ashes.

"Damn it! Those traitors from the Tang Clan! Those traitors from the Tang Clan!"

The commanders of the two imperial fleets roared in anger upon seeing this scene.

He had sensed something was wrong from the very beginning when the Tang Clan's mech squadron deliberately avoided their radar system and approached the fleets of the two great empires undetected.

The ensuing war undoubtedly proved this point, as the Tang Clan's mecha squadron became intimately familiar with almost all the weapons of the two great empires.

They can always easily avoid danger and always find their weaknesses, directly destroying their mechs and weapons.

"Sir, what should we do?" a soldier beside him shouted in a panic.

In order to resist the offensive of the Sun and Moon Federation, the Star Luo Empire and the Dou Ling Empire have gathered all their naval military forces.

At first, they thought that even if they couldn't defeat the Sun and Moon Federation's fleet, it would greatly alleviate their offensive and make Qian Gu Huang Yu's so-called declaration of invading the Star Luo Empire's homeland in a month a laughing stock.

However, they did not expect that they would be defeated by the Tang Sect's fleet without even seeing the Sun Moon Federation's own fleet.

Tang Sect! Tang Sect!
This strategic partner they once trusted most, their former national protector, and their most relied-upon arms dealer, has actually turned their guns on them.

Heretics are more terrifying than alien races. If they trusted and respected the Tang Clan before, they now hate them just as much.

The commander removed his blood-stained military cap and looked around—his trusted adjutant had been reduced to ashes by the soul-guided ray, the communications soldier's earpiece was still crackling, and the distant hum of the Tang Sect mecha's soul-guided cannon charging could be heard.

"Abandon ship!"

A hoarse voice carried throughout the ship through the loudspeakers. On deck, surviving soldiers dragged their injured legs toward the lifeboats. Some looked back toward the bridge and saw the commander's upright figure standing in the thick smoke, the medals on his chest gleaming faintly in the firelight.

As the last lifeboat entered the water, he pressed the hatch locking button, forever locking himself to the battered warship.

The warship's engines roared as if on the verge of collapse, and its thrusters spewed out twisted blue flames.

"Long live the Star Luo Empire!"

The commander placed his blood-stained hands on the cold control panel, the instrument panel reflecting his resolute face.

He increased the speed of the War God mothership to maximum and charged towards the Tang Clan's mothership, the Thousand Hands.

Through the porthole, the massive silhouette of the Tang Sect's Thousand Hands mothership was revealed beneath the clouds, its swirling soul-guided shields resembling dazzling stars.

Twenty thousand years ago, the God of War Dai Mubai and the Thousand-Handed Douluo Tang San were good brothers, but now, the inheritors of their respective wills have finally turned against each other.

Faced with the suicide attack by the War God mothership, Yun Ming, who had been waiting for a long time, finally made his move.

He leaped into the sky and gently pointed the Sky-Piercing Spear forward, instantly enveloping the War God mothership in a silvery-white light.

No matter what the commander did, there was no action.

"Move! War God, why aren't you moving!"

The commanders of the two empires frantically manipulated the control system of the War God, but no matter what they did, the War God remained stationary.

Looking up at the War God, which he had imprisoned in place using spatial confinement, Yun Ming's eyes flashed with regret. "You were a good soldier, but... what a pity."

As soon as Yun Ming finished speaking, the main cannon of the Thousand Hands was already fired, and the incoming soul power cannons instantly engulfed the War God. After the motherships of the combined fleets of the Star Luo Empire and the Dou Ling Empire were destroyed, the remaining fleets of the two empires were naturally unable to withstand the attack alone and were completely defeated in no time.

Despite the victory in the war, Cao Dezhi's face showed no joy; on the contrary, it was filled with unease and worry.

"What's wrong, Captain?" Yun Ming walked over to Cao Dezhi and asked. Although one of them is now the Pavilion Master of the Sea God Pavilion and the other is the Sect Master of the Tang Sect, they still like to address each other in private, just like when they went to participate in the Soul Master Competition.

Cao Dezhi said, "Didn't I come to the Star Luo Empire with Zang Xin before? I even recognize some of those soldiers from earlier."

“When we first came here, they looked at us with respect and envy, but now, they look at us with deep-seated hatred.”

Yun Ming was silent for a moment, then patted Cao Dezhi on the shoulder and said, "Although the road ahead is still bumpy, at least we have won now, so cheer up."

...

On the Temple, the mothership of the Sun and Moon Federation, Yun Ming and Zang Xin were invited to a banquet.

Cao Dezhi was originally invited, but he declined, citing a bad mood.

In this allied force between the Tang Clan and Shrek Academy, Yun Ming, Cao Dezhi, and Zang Xin all personally led the charge, while Feng Wuyu and Zhuo Shi were also part of the alliance.

In addition, almost all the elders of Shrek Sea God Pavilion and the powerhouses of Tang Sect Douluo Hall came out in full force.

Of Shi Tang's high-ranking officials, only Guan Yue remained to guard the headquarters.

To celebrate the victory in the first battle, Qian Renxue held a banquet on the Temple, inviting high-ranking officers from various armies.

As the greatest contributors to this war, Yun Ming and Zang Xin received a great welcome as soon as they entered.

Although the Sun Moon Federation and Shrek Tang Sect still have conflicts, they are still major contributors to this battle.

After exchanging toasts and several rounds of drinks, Yun Ming asked Qian Renxue, "Commander-in-Chief, this time it should be the entire navy of the two great empires."

"Now that the navies of both great empires have been annihilated by us, what should we do next?"

Qian Renxue asked, "Are you so sure this is the entire fleet of both great empires?"

Zang Xin laughed and said, "Previously, the Tang Clan was an arms dealer for the Star Luo Empire and the Dou Ling Empire. We knew exactly what we sold to them and what their industrial capacity could produce."

Although betraying a former ally caused Zang Xin great inner turmoil, the situation was beyond his control.

To ensure the future of Shrek Academy and Tang Sect, he had to demonstrate his loyalty to Qian Gu Huang Yu.

Qian Renxue nodded slightly and said, "In that case, it will be much more convenient to transport supplies by sea in the future."

"Rest for a few days first, and then you can split into two groups to conquer the Xingluo and Douling Empires."

Upon hearing Qian Renxue's words, Zang Xin's smile vanished instantly, and he said somewhat reluctantly, "Shrek and Tang Sect already have insufficient personnel; wouldn't this be too..."

Before Zang Xin could finish speaking, Qian Renxue interrupted him, saying, "Don't worry, we'll be there to support you at any time."

"Besides, you personally promised the Prime Minister that you would complete the mission, so you can't go back on your word now!"

"Moreover, given your understanding of the armies of the two great empires and the disparity in weaponry, the commander of the coastal army might fire a few shots symbolically out of a sense of dignity."

"But at night he'll be drinking and having fun with you."

...

After returning from the Temple, Yun Ming and Zang Xin didn't look too good, while on the Thousand Hands, Cao Dezhi, Zhuo Shi, and Feng Wuyu were...
"Boss, what's wrong with you guys?" Zhuoshi asked hurriedly upon seeing the situation.

Yun Ming said, "Le Qianxue instructed us to split into two groups to attack the Xingluo Empire and the Douling Empire respectively."

"What? Even the Sun Moon Federation, with its formidable strength, has taken so many years to prepare? How could we possibly succeed on our own?"

Zhuo Shi exclaimed in surprise. If it weren't for Yun Ming's serious expression, he would have thought that Yun Ming was joking.

Zang Xin sighed helplessly and said, "The situation is beyond our control! Now those Soul Clans don't trust us, and the two great empires think we have betrayed them. We have no choice but to follow the path of the Ancient Phoenix Feather to the bitter end."

"Let's not talk about that anymore, Lao Cao. How were our losses in this battle?"

Cao Dezhi said, "In order to minimize the consumption of fixed-position soul-guided shells and reserved soul power, we mainly used mechs in this battle."

"The main force that launched this attack was our Tang Clan's mech squadron. Out of thousands of black-level mechs, less than fifty were shot down."

"The fleet's main consumption comes from deploying soul power shields."

Upon hearing this, Yun Ming's expression finally improved a bit, and he said, "This is equivalent to us achieving the greatest results with the least losses."

Cao Dezhi said, "But in this battle, not a single soldier from either of the two empires surrendered."

"Some of them left the battlefield after confirming their defeat, and some even preferred to die in the icy sea rather than surrender to us."

When talking about this matter, Cao Dezhi's expression was extremely serious. If the two great empires would rather die than surrender, then those who would suffer the greatest impact would naturally be the vanguard of the battlefield, the line-filling babies.

They had originally prepared to treat the prisoners well, after all, the Tang Clan had maintained friendly relations with the two great empires for tens of thousands of years.

However, to everyone's surprise, the soldiers of the two great empires actually chose to die rather than surrender.

...

Sun and Moon Federation, Mingdu.

As the only designated sun of the Sun-Moon Federation, Qian Gu Huang Yu did not go directly to the battlefield. On the contrary, to avoid any trouble, she guarded the rear.

After reading the battle report from the front lines, Qian Gu Huang Yu nodded in satisfaction.

"Huang'er, how's the situation at the front?" Despite it being a war that would destroy a nation, Gu Yuena's tone was very relaxed, without any sense of pressure.

After all, if it weren't for achieving her own righteous goals, with her current strength, Qian Gu Huang Yu could destroy two great empires all by herself.

Qian Gu Huang Yu laughed and said, "What problems could there be? Everything is happening according to our plan. I just didn't expect that the Tang Clan would still have so many good things after suffering so many setbacks."
