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

These abyssal creatures are absolutely insane. They don't coordinate at all; they just charge forward recklessly, regardless of the consequences.

Guo Zhenfeng stood atop a mountain peak, his face somewhat pale. Not far from him was a tattered red mecha that was undergoing self-repair.

He has already launched several attacks, specifically targeting the enemy's abyssal creature leader, which has effectively delayed the enemy.

Moreover, his red mecha was recognized by all the soldiers of the Northern Legion. That was the undisputed number one mecha of the Northern Legion, the Azure Peak War God.

Therefore, whenever he appeared on the battlefield, the morale of the Northern Legion would be greatly boosted, and they would defeat the enemy time and time again.

However, too much time has passed; the war has already lasted for two days since it began. Humans aren't machines; they need rest. But because the first three lines of defense have fallen, there's no time for rest. Any pause could very well result in a devastating attack.

Everyone was exhausted, and the military stimulants were almost used up. The side effects were starting to appear. A breach had appeared in the fourth line of defense. If this continued, this line of defense probably wouldn't hold for another three hours.

"Where are the reinforcements? Why haven't they arrived yet?" Guo Zhenfeng roared into the soul-guided communicator in his hand.

"Commander, reinforcements are on their way, but the journey is long. The first batch of reinforcements will probably take another four hours to arrive."

Guo Zhenfeng took a deep breath to calm himself down. "Okay, I understand."

He knew very well that no amount of anger could change the reality. The far north was too far; the Federation had already done everything it could to dispatch reinforcements in such a short time. Four hours?

A bitter smile appeared on Guo Zhenfeng's lips. He could only hope that the reinforcements were strong enough to hold the line of defense behind them.

Now, all he can do is to do everything in his power, even if it means trapping the entire Northern Army here, to buy more time for reinforcements.

Returning to his mecha, he gently patted the Azure Peak War God that had been with him for many years, a mecha that his family had built for him at great expense when he was promoted to Major General.

"Old friend, you should rest well. I'm off." After saying this, his eyes flashed, and a powerful aura burst forth from his body.

He raised his right hand, and a large axe, wielding a wheel, instantly appeared in his grasp.

This is a long-handled axe, over six meters long, with a semi-circular blade that truly resembles half a wheel, measuring over one and a half meters in diameter. It is incredibly heavy.

The Mountain-Shattering Axe! A powerful weapon spirit.

Guo Zhenfeng roared and soared into the air, heading straight for the breach that had just been breached. Behind him, hundreds of mechs followed, all of them at least purple-grade or higher. This was his guard battalion, comprised of the legion's most elite mech divisions.

Among the creatures of the abyss, the vast majority resemble cockroaches and ants, while others are similar to mantises, but their attack power is much stronger.

Through observation, Guo Zhenfeng has discovered that the more humanoid abyssal creatures are, the stronger their combat power.

Therefore, he immediately spotted a massive abyssal creature, as large as a small mountain.

A flash of light appeared on the Mountain-Shattering Axe in his hand, and in an instant, the enormous axe descended from the sky as if splitting the heavens and earth.

"Annihilation Slash!" First Soul Skill.

Although it is only the first soul skill, it is also the core soul skill of Guo Zhenfeng's Extinction Mountain Axe.

Unlike most Soul Masters, the Mountain-Shattering Axe only has three attack Soul Skills. All other Soul Skills are added to these three Soul Skills to enhance their attack power.

This is a typical military combat method. Because on the battlefield, there's no need for a wide variety of soul skills. What's needed is simply to kill the enemy using the most direct and simple means.

Annihilation Slash is such a powerful offensive soul skill. It truly has the power to split mountains.

The mountain of flesh-like abyssal creature suddenly raised its head, its entire body trembling with stench. It roared at Guo Zhenfeng, the doctor, and its two thick arms lashed out at him.

"Pfft! Pfft!" With its arm severed, Guo Zhenfeng's giant axe cleaved the abyssal creature in two almost instantly, sending it soaring into the air as a thick gray current. Immediately afterward, he swept the axe left and right, and large swathes of abyssal creatures vanished into gray mist amidst the terrifying light. This caused the pressure on this side to drop sharply.

"Hold on! Seal the breach!" As he spoke, Guo Zhenfeng charged forward, his Mountain-Slaying Axe transforming into the tip of an arrowhead, determined to annihilate all enemies.

This gap is an important mountain peak, about 300 meters high. This position overlooks the entire area, connecting the upper and lower parts, and guarding and supporting the surrounding mountain peaks.

Furthermore, this location houses crucial defensive and detection soul-guided devices. Losing this point would render the fourth line of defense ineffective, like losing its eyes and outpost. Therefore, no matter what, this point cannot be lost!

Losing it means losing our lifeline!

Just then, a familiar shattering sound came from behind.

Guo Zhenfeng turned around abruptly. He saw a blurry figure flash by, followed by a burst of fire after the shattering sound. A purple-level mech had exploded.

"Damn it!" Guo Zhenfeng recognized at a glance that the exploded purple-level mech belonged to a young man he had high hopes for, a member of the guard team! These were people he saw every day.

Guo Zhenfeng's eyes turned red, and he swung his Mountain-Shattering Axe, which transformed into a large number of light blades that covered the area.

Hundreds of abyssal creatures turned into gray mist amidst the blade's shadow, but at that moment, he felt a chill coming from the side of his body.

Guo Zhenfeng instinctively dodged, trying to avoid a direct confrontation. But the other person was moving extremely fast, and still managed to tear his clothes.

A figure then appeared.

She was a woman with a very voluptuous, even somewhat exaggerated, figure. However, she had some distinct features that differed from those of a human female.

Before he could see it clearly, the figure had already disappeared again.

Guo Zhenfeng swung his Mountain-Shattering Axe horizontally, but it landed on empty air.

Just then, a series of shrill screams rang out. The defensive line on the mountaintop had been breached. A massive explosion erupted. The abyssal creatures that had stormed the summit were instantly wiped out in the ensuing blast.

"Damn it!" Guo Zhenfeng cursed angrily, his eyes reddening.

He knew that the Northern Legion soldiers, knowing the odds were against them, had sacrificed all their equipment and perished along with the enemy!

We can't hold out any longer, we can't hold this place any longer. The abyssal creatures are too powerful. The warriors are getting fewer and fewer as they fight, but why are they increasing in number?
