Douluo: Legend of the Dragon King - The Voice of the Purple Emperor

At that moment, the enormous bell came from behind, its sharp edge slamming into Guo Zhenfeng's three-word battle armor.

Amidst the piercing scraping sound and the sudden, intense ringing of the bell, Guo Zhenfeng was thrown out. A huge crack appeared on the back of his tough three-word battle armor, and the armor's radiance dimmed considerably.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, a large number of abyssal creatures swarmed forward, launching a frenzied attack on Guo Zhenfeng. Countless attacks and corrosive effects took effect on the commander of the Northern Legion in a short period of time.

A dark bell appeared in the void, watching Guo Zhenfeng being engulfed by abyssal creatures. It then turned to look at the Northern Legion's last line of defense, a smug smile on its face. This line of defense was finally going to be breached; after that, the world would be wide open. This was exactly what she and the Holy Spirit Cult had been eagerly anticipating.

However, the smile on her face only lasted for a moment before it suddenly froze.

That was… Dark Bell’s pupils suddenly dilated.

At that moment, only one thought was in her mind: to run.

Terrifying heat surged into the sky, and the surrounding temperature reached an alarming level.

Level 11 Fixed-Equipment Soul-Guided Artillery Shell!

Although after humanity developed three god-killing soul-guided projectiles, due to resource constraints, it was explicitly prohibited to research soul-guided projectiles of level nine or higher.

But rules are rules, and some people will always listen to them, while others will never.

There are radical factions within the Federation who advocate for continuous military expansion, including all kinds of weapons and bombs of all levels.

Because of the radical faction, some internal research, such as soul-guided missiles, will not stop.

The power of this level 11 soul-guided cannon shell has been significantly reduced.

The Northern Legion's divisions are almost wiped out. For the Federation, once this defense is breached, reinforcements will not be able to establish a defensive line.

Then that would truly be a disaster for the Douluo Continent.

Therefore, some sacrifices must be made...

The terrifying heat incinerated everything, melting vast swathes of snow and causing abyssal creatures to dissipate from the heat.

Countless warriors' corpses vanished and melted away amidst the fiery clouds.

……

Supreme Combat Readiness Department.

"The Northern Legion has been completely annihilated."

Seeing the words on the soul guide screen, Yu Guanzhi was completely enraged.

"An entire legion was wiped out! This only halted the advance of the abyssal creatures!"

The speaker looked somewhat old, but appeared energetic and vigorous, with three general's stars hanging on his shoulders.

Yu Guanzhi, Commander of the Central Legion, a Limit Douluo. One of the top three big shots in the military. Even the Central Legion is significantly influenced by his family.

He is also another vice hall master of the War God Hall. His status in the War God Hall is second only to Chen Xinjie, the Vast Ocean Douluo, and is on par with Guan Yue, the Sky-Crossing Douluo.

However, within the military, his status was on par with Chen Xinjie's, and their influence was nearly equal. He was one of the representative figures of the military's hawkish faction.

One of the three most famous generals among the hawks.

The military's influence is deeply entrenched. But the most powerful faction is the Yu family, a position that has remained unchanged for a thousand years. Even a powerful figure like the Vast Ocean Douluo would have to show them respect.

"The north is too chaotic right now, and our support is too insignificant. Only by resolving one place can we better address the other."

Another person stood up and spoke.

"How do we solve this? I've investigated; abyssal creatures can resurrect. What about our warriors?"

The speaker was an old man sitting at the head of the right side. He was also a three-star general, but he had a very fierce appearance. He had dark skin, and his large, bell-like eyes protruded slightly, giving him a somewhat monstrous look.

Dong Zi'an, commander of the Western Legion. Also a high-ranking military figure. Once hailed as the military's most formidable general. His martial soul is the Blue-Faced Wolf, and his title is Ferocious Wolf. He is a Limit Douluo.

The Blue-Faced Wolf is actually just a very ordinary martial soul, but it is precisely because of this that it once made a name for itself in the military.

As we all know, the higher the quality of a Soul Master's Martial Soul, the greater the possibility of reaching a higher level. The difficulties involved in cultivating an ordinary Martial Soul like the Green-Faced Wolf to the Limit Douluo level are unimaginable, and mutations are inevitable. Without mutations, it would be impossible to reach the Limit Douluo level.

The Western Legion is extremely powerful, second only to the Central Legion in the Federation Army. Stationed in the western border, they are, in a sense, also the Blood God Legion's backup. If the Blood God Legion encounters problems guarding the Abyss Passage, the Western Legion will be the first to arrive to provide support.

This Fierce Wolf Douluo looks quite old, but is actually only in his sixties. He is hailed as Chen Xinjie's successor. His next step may also be to take a part-time position within the War God Temple.

"Your Western Legion should focus on the Endless Mountains. Blood God won't last long, even with reinforcements."

"Of course I know, but what I want to say is that the abyssal creatures that are killed in the Endless Mountains cannot be resurrected."

"What?"

Everyone stood up.

"I'm not entirely sure either, but what I am certain of is that guarding the Endless Mountains only requires one legion. However, it will need to be equipped with heavy firepower and at least two Limit Douluos."

"You mean, focus our defenses primarily in the far north?"

"That's right. The far north is a true natural barrier; beyond it lies the Douluo Continent! And with the endless mountains, the Fiery Basin, and the desert as barriers, setting up a defensive line makes it easy to defend and difficult to attack."

The speaker was the commander of the Northwest Army Corps, a middle-aged man with a refined appearance and a smiling demeanor, holding the rank of general. He gave off a very peaceful feeling.

Those familiar with him know that he is as cunning as a fox, hailed as a wise general in the army, and has commanded the Northwest Army for many years, making the Northwest Army thrive.

Within the Federation, the Central Army Corps, the Northwest Army Corps, and the Western Army Corps are known as the three major army corps.

The Poseidon Legion, the East Naval Legion, and the North Naval Legion are known as the three major navies.

Comparatively speaking, the Southern and Northern Armies were weaker.

The Northern Legion was stationed in the far north, where there wasn't much to defend, and its remote location made resource allocation difficult. Good soldiers were unwilling to go to such a place.

The Southern Legion, however, is allied with the Sea God Legion. With the Sea God Legion involved, the Southern Legion naturally can't be too powerful. After all, among all the legions, only the Southern Legion is directly under the Angel Family. In extreme situations, the Angel Family's orders are even more effective than the military, so the resources from the Federation are relatively less. It has always been under the control of the Angel Family…
