Douluo Continent: I, Huo Yuhao, am the Master of Spirit

Chapter 300 Sea Dragon Douluo: "I don't understand!"

Dai Hao, who was originally stationed in the Mingdou Mountains, was suddenly transferred by Xu Jiawei to Tianxing City, the westernmost city of the Xingluo Empire. Although he did not say anything on the surface, he was quite dissatisfied in his heart.

No marshal would be happy to be suddenly transferred away from his main battle zone and sent to an unfamiliar defense zone.

Because he arrived in a hurry, he couldn't bring all his White Tiger Guards with him, only some of his old comrades.

Upon hearing this, Xuanji Douluo was worried about Dai Hao, so he temporarily resigned from his position as the leader of the First Soul Master Legion and came to Tianxing Port with Dai Hao.

Furthermore, because the navigation technology on the Douluo Continent was not advanced, the four land nations were engaged in a power struggle and had no contact with the other two continents. Each continent had its own things to do.

Sea spirit beasts are notoriously dangerous. There are no fewer than five 100,000-year-old beast kings in the near sea. Unless there are special circumstances, no one wants to venture out to sea.

For various reasons, the coastal cities of the Star Luo Empire are actually quite backward, completely different from the golden age of the previous life. In the Douluo Continent, advanced cities are generally surrounded by a forest of soul beasts.

The troops stationed here are not receiving timely supplies, and they eat fish for all three meals a day. It is only recently, because of the Sea God family, that they have received an extra amount of subsidies.

The Star Luo Empire was relatively better off, but the Dou Ling Empire didn't even have coastal defenses, leaving its gates wide open, allowing pirates to come and go as they pleased.

In a sense, the Heavenly Soul Empire has no sea at all; the nearest icy sea is next to the Sun Moon Empire and the far north.

The icy sea is also home to the dominant race of mermaids. Only pirates who have eaten too much red bean and want to die would come here to plunder.

At this moment, all of Dai Hao's dissatisfaction with the Star Luo Emperor vanished, and he finally understood why Xu Jiawei was so alarmed.

The radar and high-altitude detection soul guide showed that the western sea area was densely packed with sea soul masters and sea soul beasts!

Its density is comparable to the medium-sized beast tide that once erupted in the Starry Sky Forest.

If these guys are allowed to land, the western part of the Star Luo Empire will definitely be in turmoil!

"Give me the order!"

"Beat me to death!"

"Activate all Dream Coin reserves! Full power supply!"

"While the enemy is densely packed, use fixed-position soul-guided cannon shells to bomb them!"

With a wave of his hand from the command post, Dai Hao quickly sent all orders down to all units via the magic network and communication soul guides.

The numerous self-locking enemy soul-guided cannons deployed along the shore had long since completed their charging. Upon receiving the unlock command, the entire west coast was suddenly illuminated, and the sea soul masters and sea soul beasts rushing towards the shore thought it was dawn.

Soon, this thought may become their last thought in this world, as a blazing white light instantly engulfs a large area of ​​the sea.

"Zizi"

In the darkness, the seawater evaporated into a layer of white steam due to the high temperature, and the painful howls of the Sea Soul Masters and Sea Soul Beasts immediately resounded throughout the entire sea area.

The high temperatures scorched their skin, and the scalding steam damaged their internal organs.

Numerous white, yellow, and purple spirit rings rose from the ocean, creating numerous light sources that illuminated the terrified faces of the vanguard spirit masters.

They had been at sea for too long, and without a magic network to gather information, they were unaware of the extent to which soul tools had developed on land.

After the main cannon of the self-locking enemy soul-guided turret cooled down, the surrounding soul-guided machine guns began to unleash bullets carrying various attributes towards the sea.

This weapon, which combines the structure of a machine gun from the previous life with the characteristics of a soul tool from Douluo Continent, should be considered a level six soul tool if rated according to the soul tool rating system.

However, this level six soul tool is far more powerful than the level seven one, and its cost is also far greater.

These bullets were also specially made. Huo Yuhao didn't really understand chemistry, so he simply used soul power and miniature soul guidance arrays instead. Anyway, high-precision soul guidance machine tools could be mass-produced.

The combined price of these bullets is higher than that of the self-locking enemy soul-guided turret, but their effectiveness is undeniable.

The entire coastline lit up with deadly chains of fire, each chain containing soul power of all attributes, ensuring it could counter all types of soul power defenses.

Bullets, possessing both kinetic and energetic properties, are the most efficient killing weapons.

In an instant, the entire sea was littered with blood and flesh, and the remains of soul beasts and humans flew everywhere, with a large number of soul rings lighting up on the sea.

The painful cries once drowned out the howling of the sea wind.

The vanguard of the Sea God Clan immediately attempted a counterattack, throwing various ranged soul skills at the various firing points on the shore. However, these attacks were either too close or intercepted by the Star Luo Empire's coastal defense forces.

"Boom boom boom!!"

The fixed-mount soul-guided cannons at Tianxing Port also began to roar, and countless cheap fixed-mount soul-guided cannon shells, costing about five hundred gold soul coins each, fell on the sea like raindrops.

Because of the emergence of the Soul Guidance Machine Tool, the Level 6 fixed-position Soul Guidance Shell, which originally cost 50,000 gold soul coins, now only costs 2,000 gold soul coins, and Level 5 and Level 4 shells are even cheaper.

The Star Luo Empire purchased a large number of fixed-position soul-guided cannon shells and didn't feel any pain when firing them.

The fixed-position soul-guided shells, along with the chain of firepower, turned the nearshore area into a meat grinder. Sea Soul Masters and Sea Soul Beasts couldn't get close at all; their only thought now was to survive.

The deeper waters further back are alright, but there's really nowhere to hide near the shore.

Even if a Soul Emperor-level Sea Soul Master forcibly opens a Soul Power Barrier to resist the engulfing of the firepower net, the Soul Guidance Cannonballs that deliver a saturation attack will instantly shatter their internal organs.

"This is a massacre!"

"How are we supposed to land?! We can't even get close to the coast; anyone who goes will die!"

The Sea Soul Masters at the rear were almost mentally broken. They watched as their comrades who were charging forward were beaten into pieces in a few minutes. Even a regular army would lose morale if it came. How much more so these Sea Soul Masters who usually only had a good chance of winning?

"Fuck you! I'm not fighting anymore, this is suicide!"

The first to flee were not the sea spirit beasts, but the sea spirit masters. Driven by their survival instincts, a large number of sea spirit masters who were about to step into the near sea ran backward.

They were safe once they reached deeper waters.

Under the illumination of countless spirit rings, the high-altitude detection spirit tool captured images of the battlefield.

The Sea Spirit Masters and Sea Spirit Beasts in front suddenly collided with those behind them.

The Sea Soul Masters at the forefront were terrified and began indiscriminately slaughtering their comrades behind them, wanting nothing more than to escape the meat grinder-like battlefield. Within just a few hours, the entire nearshore area was transformed into a sea of ​​blood, littered with severed limbs, indistinguishable between humans and soul beasts.

The light of countless spirit rings almost obscured the dawn's radiance.

Dai Hao and others at the rear command post were dumbfounded.

This battle was the first time they had ever relied entirely on soul tools.

In the past, when they fought against the Sun Moon Empire in the Mingdou Mountains, they relied on traditional swords and spears and powerful martial spirits to fight the Sun Moon Empire to a standstill.

Even now, Dai Hao's military camp still has a lot of bows and arrows and spears. Their concept of soul tools is still limited to assisting in combat, rather than determining the outcome of combat.

This time, the main reason was that Dai Hao's White Tiger Guards were all landlubbers and didn't understand naval warfare at all. The entire Star Luo Empire's coastal defense force had also fought very few naval battles.

Many coastal troops still think that naval warfare is just about exchanging artillery fire before boarding and fighting.

After all, that's exactly what our ancestor did when he followed Lan Hao Wang Tang San and fought against the Spirit Empire.

Since none of us understand naval warfare, let's just use the soul-guided device sent by His Majesty the Emperor to fire a few shots and try to weaken the enemy as much as possible.

Once they're ashore, we'll have a real fight to show the sea creatures the power of land-based Soul Masters.

The result was astounding. They only needed to utilize the functions of a soul power charger, pressing buttons, and intercepting the opponent's long-range soul skills. The self-locking enemy soul-guided turret, combined with radar and high-altitude detection soul guides, went on a killing spree.

The intersecting barrage of fire would not let any enemy trying to break through the defenses escape, and the fixed-position soul-guided shells in the rear left the advance troops that had reached the nearshore area with no way to retreat.

"This, this is simply a slaughterhouse."

"What kind of soul tool is this? Why have I never seen one like this before?!"

Xuanji Douluo stared at the rapidly disappearing red dot on the screen, and at the devastation on the sea displayed by the high-altitude detection soul tool, his lips trembling uncontrollably.

Not only the enemy, but they themselves were also terrified by these soul-guided devices. The terrifying firepower combined with the fixed-position soul-guided shells was more efficient in killing than any soul skill.

He couldn't help but tremble at the thought of facing the same situation one day while leading the First Soul Master Legion.

They are probably no better than these Sea Soul Masters.

Even if I use the Xuanji Umbrella to defend the legion, I'll probably face level eight or even level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannonballs in the next second.

Dai Hao stared intently at the row of self-locking enemy soul-guided turrets that had ceased attacking and said:
"Was this made by our Star Luo Empire?"

"When I get back, I will definitely ask His Majesty to provide the Western Army with dozens of these as well."

"If we install these artillery positions in the Mingdou Mountains and build permanent fortifications there, and station a Soul Guidance Artillery Division in the rear to provide high-level fixed-position Soul Guidance Artillery shells for bombardment, this would be an absolutely impregnable defensive line!"

Of course, the last thing called an impregnable, absolute defensive line was the Maginot Line.

If Otto wanted to fight, he probably had a hundred ways to turn this thing into junk.

A general from the coastal defense force standing nearby said respectfully:

"Marshal White Tiger was produced in Xilu City."

"His Majesty spent a lot of money to order from Tiandou Plain, but due to the rush, the coastal defense forces have limited ammunition."

After calming down, Dai Hao asked him:

"There are many?"

"Can we hold out until sunset?"

The general nodded and immediately said:

"Absolutely no problem!"

"Marshal! Something's happened!"

"The soul power detection device and radar have detected a high-level soul power reaction!"

One of the observers looked alarmed and immediately shouted at Dai Hao.

Dai Hao's gaze sharpened, and he shouted sternly:

"Provide details!"

Several observers began rapidly manipulating and calculating on the complex instruments, their voices trembling slightly as they spoke:
"A total of eight high-level responses!"

"Four of them belong to humans, one is at the Super Douluo level, and three are at the Title Douluo level!"

"The other four belong to soul beasts, at the 100,000-year level!"

Dai Hao looked at the sea situation displayed on the high-altitude detection soul guide and said solemnly:

"They're really getting serious now."

…………

In the Western Sea, the Sea Dragon Douluo looked down at the chaotic advance force below, his eyelids twitching wildly. His bronze skin turned red with anger, and with a sudden wave of his hand, all the Sea Soul Masters and Sea Soul Beasts that were trying to rush back exploded into a cloud of blood mist.

The entire advance force was instantly intimidated by this tactic and returned to calm.

"I don't know!"

"Why did the Western Sea suddenly become the burial ground for my advance troops just because I drank for a while?!"

"Tianxing Port has always been a strategic location fought over by military forces! How come it's now in such dire straits?!"

"Regardless, the advantage is in my hands this time!"

"Everyone, follow me and charge!! Take Tianxing Port!"
