Douluo Dragon King: I'm creating a golden age behind the scenes!

Chapter 99 Predicting Your Predictions

The explosions in the sky continued. Although they had not yet seen the real enemy, Shrek Academy and his group had already suffered heavy losses due to this series of attacks, with the inner court disciples in the group suffering heavy casualties.

One after another, fixed-position soul-guided shells came whistling down from below like a meteor shower, trailing long flames as they precisely struck the positions of the inner courtyard disciples.

This series of intense attacks kept the Shrek team completely engulfed.

The inner court disciples in the team were the first to be affected. Although they were all rare geniuses on the continent, no matter how much potential they had, they were only at the seventh or eighth level and were still in the growth stage.

The reason why fixed-position soul-guided cannons are called super weapons and are strictly controlled by the Federation is because of their terrifying lethality and destructive power. Although they are divided into different levels according to the level of the soul master, this is only based on the soul master's mobility and attack ability. This does not mean that the soul master can withstand the repeated bombardment of fixed-position soul-guided cannons of the same level with his bare body. Not to mention that they also need to deal with the attack of ultra-high speed intercepting soul-guided rays. Faced with such a fierce attack, even if they summon their battle armor in time, it is difficult to resist.

In an instant, screams and cries of horror filled the air as disciples were repeatedly blown away by the shockwaves of the shells, tracing tragic arcs in the air. Some were even directly hit by the shells, turning into a cloud of blood mist. The scene was horrific, and more than half of the inner courtyard disciples were killed or wounded in an instant.

Seeing this, the elders were filled with anger and heartache. These inner court disciples were all treasures carefully cultivated by Shrek Academy. The death of even one of them would be a huge loss to the academy.

At this moment, their figures constantly moved through the artillery fire, their battle armor gleaming and releasing powerful defensive shields, attempting to create a safe haven for their disciples.

However, the power of these fixed-position soul-guided projectiles far exceeded their expectations.

In fact, these fixed-position soul-guided shells were at most level seven or eight, and with the speed and defense of these elders, they could have easily taken them without taking any damage.

Unfortunately, their attack methods were too cunning. The shells did not go directly at the elders, but always bypassed them and accurately attacked the inner disciples, striking where they had to defend.

Faced with this situation, these elders had only one thought in their minds: to save the lives of these inner court disciples.

Therefore, they had no choice but to face the shells head-on, with no option to dodge.

However, the changes were too rapid and sudden. The shells rained down, and despite their best efforts to maneuver and defend, they were still injured by the aftershocks of the shells.

Several senior members were so shocked that their blood churned and a trickle of blood even spilled from the corner of their mouths. But before they could catch their breath, the research department launched wave after wave of attacks.

One after another, fixed-position soul-guided cannon shells were activated, continuously rushing towards the Shrek Academy students in the sky. The roar of the explosions was so loud that it hurt people's eardrums, and even the dark night sky was illuminated by this continuous attack.

Faced with these relentless attacks, the elders of Shrek Academy understood that if they continued to passively endure the beatings, they would eventually be exhausted.

Cai Yue'er frowned, a resolute glint in her eyes. Enhancing her power with her soul force, she shouted, "Those soul-guided cannon positions must be destroyed! Zhuo Shi, follow me! The rest of you, quickly protect the disciples and retreat!"

At this moment, amidst the roar of cannonballs, her voice gradually reached the ears of the Shrek team.

Zhuoshi instantly understood her meaning, and a resolute look flashed in his eyes.

The two attacked together, unleashing their strongest group attack soul skills. In an instant, streaks of moonlight blades and a phantom of a crimson dragon appeared in the sky, heading towards the barrage of fixed-position soul-guided cannon shells.

Destroying the incoming shells one by one—if this weren't a battlefield, it would surely be a spectacular fireworks display.

Without hesitation, they found their direction and accelerated their descent, heading straight for the research department's soul-guided artillery position.

As the soul-guided array drew ever closer, Cai Yue'er felt a growing sense of unease.

Sure enough, just as they were descending, two spatial fluctuations suddenly appeared like ghosts in their path, as if they had been waiting for a long time.

It directly distorted the surrounding space, forming a series of eerie cracks.

Following closely behind were two incredibly fast spatial blades, carrying a sharp edge capable of tearing through space, hurtling towards Cai Yue'er and Zhuo Shi.

He quickly summoned his battle armor, which shimmered with a mysterious light and empowered himself, causing his aura to surge. He then released his true martial soul form, assuming a defensive stance to try and withstand the fatal blow.

After a violent collision, even with their battle armor summoned, they could only barely parry the two attacks, but they were still injured by the powerful blows, and a trickle of blood spurted from the corner of their mouths.

When the two looked over, they realized that standing in front of them were two old men in gray robes.

The two old men exuded terrifying soul power fluctuations. Although they had not yet shown any killing intent, they still sent chills down people's spines.

Just from this, Cai Yue'er and Zhuo Shi understood that even in terms of soul power level alone, these two old men were definitely higher than them.

"Who are you people?" Cai Yue'er asked warily. Facing such an opponent, she dared not be careless, her eyes filled with vigilance.

At the same time, there was a hint of doubt. Logically speaking, Shrek Academy should have heard of such a powerful figure, right?

However, the two old men remained silent in the face of Cai Yue'er's question, seemingly too lazy to waste words with them. They simply activated their soul power and prepared to make their move.

As the soul power of the two elders fluctuated, spatial ripples were stirred up in the sky, and spatial blades attacked them, each carrying the power to tear space apart.

Sensing this terrifying power, Cai Yue'er and Zhuo Shi had no choice but to brace themselves and fight back. They began to circulate their soul power at full force, and their soul rings flashed with light as they attacked the spatial blades, engaging in a fierce battle with the two elders.

However, while Cai Yue'er was parrying him, she often looked towards the inside of the research department, as if she was worried about something.

After this series of encounters with the research department, she felt that her group had been thoroughly outmaneuvered and that they must have a backup plan.

As expected, the next moment, a violent explosion came from the research department's detention area. Upon hearing the loud noise, Cai Yue'er and her group showed a look of shock and paleness, because they knew very well what was there.

. .

Just an hour ago, in the sky, Cai Yue'er and the others were busy facing one soul-guided cannon shell after another. The roar of the cannon fire and the light of the soul skills intertwined, attracting the attention of most of the research department staff.

Inside the research department, in a heavily guarded area where prisoners were held, a group of Shrek Academy members dressed in black robes were cautiously making their way forward.

Along the way, guided by their informant planted in the research department, they skillfully avoided one soul-guiding device after another, as if they knew their own backyard.

Those obstacles that were once considered insurmountable became as fragile as paper barriers in their eyes.

One of the young inner court disciples, looking at the excessively quiet surroundings, couldn't help but mutter softly, "The defenses of this research department are nothing special. We just swaggered in like that and didn't encounter any decent resistance."

Another disciple chimed in, "Yeah, we thought there would be some powerful traps and experts waiting for us, but this is all?"

Gradually, their words became filled with smugness, as if the infiltration operation was already a sure thing.

The guards they encountered along the way were child's play to them.

These elite students from the inner courtyard each possess unique skills. Their casual use of soul techniques can render the guards powerless to resist. They easily deal with the guards without even expending much effort.

In this relaxed atmosphere, they quickly arrived at the cell where Tang Wulin and the others were being held. The team leader nodded to the person in charge, signaling him to open the door.

The accomplice skillfully operated the lock, and with a slight mechanical sound, the cell door slowly opened.

However, the scene that unfolded before them stunned everyone.

The cell was empty; Tang Wulin and the others were nowhere to be seen. Only a note lay quietly on the table. The handwriting on the note was strong and forceful, reading—"Welcome to the Research Department!"

For a moment, everyone fell silent. The smugness on their faces vanished instantly, replaced by shock and unease.

Looking back, the cell door was already closed, and even the soul power seemed to be suppressed by some force. The captain in charge frowned, and an ominous premonition welled up in his heart.

However, before he could react, everyone heard a series of "beep beep" sounds coming from all directions of the room. When he lifted the floorboards and found the source of the sound, he saw a terrifying scene.

"Soul-guided elemental bomb!!!"
