Douluo: What the hell is the academic master development system?

Chapter 887 Humans, they are so cunning, so incredibly cunning!!!
These humans weren't afraid; they were worried that their soul-guided cannonballs would damage the soul-guided devices hidden beneath the ground!

The beast tide has receded; more accurately, the first wave of the beast tide has receded.

Beneath Shrek City, the densely packed ground traps and the low-level soul tools that probably cost only a few million gold soul coins in total, brought death to nearly 70,000 soul beasts in this meat grinder-like war, with countless more wounded.

Large numbers of corpses were left behind by the beast horde and dumped below the city walls.

These dead soul beasts were all poisoned and were not suitable to be taken back as food, unless a soul beast believed it could withstand the terrifying toxicity of the Jade Phosphorous Seven Absolute Flowers.

Therefore, the retreat of the first wave of beasts caused the morale of the soul beasts to plummet instantly. What they faced was not a true enemy, but cold steel and various terrifying elemental reactions.

This is completely different from the survival of the fittest in the jungle. This combat mode, where the enemy is invisible, makes many soul beasts want to retreat.

In contrast to the slump in the spirit beast faction, the Shrek Academy faction was in a state of disarray.

If it weren't for the occasional military order that was being enforced, the Shrek City Guards would have already begun to celebrate.

From the beginning to the end of the beast tide, the entire Shrek City Guard repelled the beast tide that had once brought immense suffering to humanity without firing a single shot!
Nearly 70,000 soul beasts perished here, and countless soul rings drifted below Shrek City. Such a scene is probably the first of its kind in the human world!
At this moment, the only casualty of the Shrek City Guard was a guard who twisted his ankle while trying to dodge a soul beast's ranged soul skill. Apart from that, there were no other casualties!

A casualty ratio of over 60,000 to 1 is an incredible achievement.

If the war continues at this casualty ratio, even if the Star Dou Forest sends out an army of over a million soul beasts to invade the border, Shrek Academy will only need to suffer a few dozen casualties to completely wipe them out!

However, whether it was Shi Xing, Chen Ping, or the other Shrek Academy powerhouses, they all knew very well that such an exaggerated casualty ratio was based on a clever strategy.

Once the soul beasts of Star Dou Forest begin to gradually clear away the sprawling ground-based soul tools, and then launch another siege, it will be a pure head-on clash.

Theoretically speaking, if Chen Ping wanted to maximize the damage to the beast tide, he should have waited until the beast tide had fully spread out before simultaneously activating the trap soul guides in all four directions. In this way, the damage would theoretically be far greater than doing it alone in front of the south city wall.

The problem is that doing this would require far too many soul tools, so many that even if Shrek Academy mobilized all its manpower, it would be impossible to complete the production. Shrek Academy has no shortage of rare metals, but it lacks a large number of well-trained low-level soul masters, and even more so, it lacks the time to produce these massive amounts of soul tools.

Therefore, even though Shrek Academy made preparations early on, currently only the south city wall has been truly equipped with a massive number of trap soul tools to deal with the possible beast tide.

In the distance beyond the south city wall, a low rumble resounded. Everyone understood that the soul beasts had begun to dismantle the mines. Once these soul beasts had completely dismantled the soul-guided traps along their route, the beast tide would sweep in once more.

This is indeed an excellent strategy. However, could Chen Ping, who had made preparations at the foot of Shrek Academy's city walls long ago, not have foreseen that the soul beasts could come up with the strategy of defusing the mines?
Don't forget, the maximum distance this trap soul tool can be set up is ten kilometers away from Shrek City.

This location is beyond the reach of ordinary soul-guided devices, but it can be easily touched by a soul-guided howitzer, with a range of up to four kilometers.

"Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom..."

Shells landed precisely in the center of the distant beast horde, where they were clearing mines. Each soul-guided howitzer covered a specific area, but none overlapped.

Given the sheer number of soul beasts in the beast tide, aiming is basically unnecessary.

These heavy artillery pieces are all equipped with high-explosive shells at their core arrays, without exception. Only high-explosive shells can unleash the strongest combat power instantly on the battlefield.

Hundreds of high-explosive soul energy compression bombs slammed into the horde of soul beasts at an astonishing speed, instantly unleashing a terrifying energy storm.

The deafening roar echoed across the distant battlefield, accompanied by the screams, roars, and shrieks of the soul beasts, along with countless limbs of soul beasts scattered by the explosions, turning the battlefield into a scene of carnage.

Even the Shrek City defense forces witnessed for the first time the terrifying power of all the soul-guided cannons firing simultaneously.

If the beast tide was a flood, then this volley of fire was like forcibly cutting it off. The originally surging beast tide paused for a moment, and a large number of soul beasts in front were blasted to death by the heavy artillery.

Shi Xing floated up and hovered above Shrek City, roaring, "Do you see that? This is the power of Shrek!"

"For the glory of Shrek, Shrek City Defense Force, ignite the passion within you! For Shrek, we will fight to the last moment, we will burn our last drop of blood! Soul-guided cannons, second round, prepare, fire!"

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

The Soul-Guided Howitzer launched its second salvo, unleashing another hundred high-explosive shells at the horde of Soul Beasts.

Human research on soul beasts began the day soul masters appeared.

But how much do soul beasts really know about humans?

Even though many ferocious beasts in the Star Dou Forest have begun to try to understand the soul tools of the human world because of the auspicious beasts, the problem is that they know nothing about the most fashionable and advanced soul-guided howitzers on the battlefields of Sun Moon, Star Luo, and Heavenly Soul Empire.

This is why, when the first round of bombardment by the soul-guided howitzer inflicted heavy damage on the large group of mine-clearing soul beasts from ten kilometers away, not only were the soul beast army somewhat bewildered, but even their commanders were also stunned.

What kind of soul skill is this? It's so powerful! It can cover such a wide area at such a great distance and with such great power? Even a Title Douluo would find it almost impossible to do this!

A firepower coverage distance of 10,000 meters is a terrifying strike range that exceeds the imagination of all soul beasts. Even super Douluo rarely possess a super soul skill that spans 10,000 meters.

With the retreat of the first wave of beasts, the soul beasts remaining in front of the position are all high-level soul beasts of the thousand-year or ten-thousand-year level. Only these soul beasts can use their ranged soul skills to bombard the ground in large numbers, and destroy the hidden trap soul tools as much as possible.

At this moment, Shrek was focused on the actions of these advanced mine-clearing soldiers, which instantly caused Brigitte, who was in charge of command, to be completely blinded.

Humans are so cunning, so incredibly cunning!!!
