Gu Yuena glanced at them, "Good, since that's the case, go and get ready."
The Titled Douluos nodded, and quickly left...
The leading Hyper Douluo, with a wary expression, asked, "Pagoda Master, what do we need to do?"
That attack just now, even he had to use all his might to fend off, which meant the opponent's strength was not weaker than his own, maybe even stronger!
The others also cast curious glances, waiting for Gu Yuena to issue a command...
However, she simply said, "Right now, the most important thing for you is to stand guard at the Spirit Pagoda and prevent outsiders from breaking in!"
Everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Yes, Pagoda Master, we will certainly prevent outsiders from entering the Spirit Pagoda!"
No matter what the command was, as long as they didn't have to go to the front line to die, it was good enough!
After all the outsiders had left, Leng Yaozhu couldn't suppress her curiosity and asked, "Gu Yue, I am very curious, just what level has your strength reached?"
"That casual strike earlier, even a Hyper Douluo couldn't easily block it!"
As soon as the words fell, the golden pupils of Di Tian flashed with a cold light, and he sternly said, "Vice Tower Master, that is not something you should ask..."
None of the ferocious beasts, including himself, had ever thought about questioning their lord's strength, yet Leng Yaozhu, who was ostensibly a teacher, dared to utter such words!
Bi Ji, beside him, pulled him back, reminding him, "Di Tian... you have already angered the lord before, now it would be better to stay quiet!"
Di Tian roughly shook off her hand, snorted coldly, and said no more...
Gu Yuena looked straight at Leng Yaozhu and shook her head, "Teacher, I beg your forgiveness, but I cannot tell you yet."
About her Silver Dragon King bloodline and strength, even to the closest person, she would not reveal!
Leng Yaozhu did not show any disappointment, but nodded understandingly, "I see... I understand!"
Even without an exact answer, she could still roughly speculate...
Gu Yuena turned to look at the others, "Di Tian, Bi Ji!"
Both answered in unison, "My lord!"
Gu Yuena's expression became serious, "For the time being, you two will be in charge of managing the Ten Thousand Beast Platform, and—pay special attention to the Titan Ape and the Azure Oxpython!"
Bi Ji exclaimed, "My lord, do you suspect them..."
"Though not certain, their relationship with Tang Wulin is not simple, and they might leak known information!"
Those two were really tricky!
...
Compared to the calm elsewhere!
The city facing the invasion by the Abyssal Creature Army was now ablaze with artillery fire, corpses strewn everywhere...
Everywhere was pervaded by a thick scent of blood...
The leading federation officer shouted, "Everyone fire!! Fire! The abyssal creatures are coming again!!"
In an instant, every Soul Master around him, despite the weariness echoing in their minds, infused their Soul Power into their soul weapons...
The sky was filled with soul cannonballs and various attacks, bombarding the continuously approaching front...
"Boom!!"
The abyssal creatures were blasted into disarray, but as if they felt no pain, continued to surge forward...
Even though they knew they were facing another round of bombardment...
After numerous bombings, there was no sign of the abyssal creatures diminishing; many Soul Masters had lost their will to resist...
"My God, just how many of them are there? We're almost out of Soul cannonballs, and still, we can't kill them all!"
"Damn it! Is this defense line going to be breached by the Abyssal Creature Army again?"
"Isn't that obvious? With our current reserve of Soul cannonballs, I'm afraid they will flatten us within half an hour!"
"I think we should all retreat fast. We've been defending this long without a single reinforcement; staying here will only turn us into ghosts!!"
"You! Stop sowing discord among our troops. We are soldiers of the federation; even in death, we must complete the mission assigned by our superiors!"
"That's right, as soldiers of the federation, how can we live in cowardice! Fight them with everything we've got!!"
Just as these soldiers were preparing to fight to the death with the abyssal creatures, a metallic clanging sound suddenly arose from behind, drawing everyone's attention!
"Buzzzzz..."
With the naked eye, one could see countless black and white Mechas charging from the back, mercilessly strafing the horde of abyssal creatures in front of them...
Yes, these were the Mecha Brigade that had arrived just in time!
But that wasn't all; countless Soul Masters that the eye couldn't count were appearing one after another from behind...
Hall Master Zhao Chong shouted loudly, "Disciples of the Tang Sect, follow my command, use area-of-effect soul skills and soul weapons to bombard the Abyssal Creature Army, and alleviate the situation on the battlefield as much as possible."
Originally, it was supposed to be Liang Xiaoyu leading the Tang Sect disciples for this support, but at his request, someone else was chosen...
These Tang Sect disciples clearly had undergone special training, and within a short period, they fortified the original defense line once more...
Instantly, they turned the frail defense line into one solid as gold soup, easily withstanding wave after wave of assault from the Abyssal Creature Army...
"Those are the Mecha Brigade of the federation! Thank goodness, headquarters has actually sent them here!"
"It seems that the headquarters hasn't given up on us, knowing this place was about to fall, they sent reinforcements just in time!"
"Hahahaha, with reinforcements here, what do we have to fear? Whether it's abyssal creatures or the Abyssal Emperor, all can go to hell!!"
"Aside from the federation's Mecha Brigade, the disciples of the Tang Sect have also arrived, and they've instantly filled the missing parts of the defense line!"
"As expected of the Tang Sect, the coordination among these disciples is even better than that of our federation, they are actually suppressing the Abyssal Creature Army!"
"Things are looking up; let's all put in an effort, let these abyssal creatures die here today, they won't take another step past us!"
Seeing the situation gradually improving, Zhao Chong finally breathed a sigh of relief...
Thank goodness they were in time; had they been any later, these abyssal beings might have broken through again!
The federation's commander, covered in dust, arrived beside him, beaming, "You must be Hall Master Zhao of the Tang Sect, right?"
Zhao Chong nodded slightly, "Correct!"
The latter then said with an excited face, "This time, it's all thanks to the Tang Sect's assistance that we were able to hold onto this place!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Song couldn't agree...
He coldly said, "It's too early to say we've held our position! Don't forget, the Abyssal Emperors haven't made their move yet!"
According to the reports when the defense lines had previously been destroyed, the Abyssal Emperors always attacked the human defense lines' rear with impatience, tilting the scales of victory in their favor!
But now, not a single Abyssal Emperor had been seen!
Could it be, even Abyssal Emperors can tire??
The commander swallowed hard, "If you're worried about the Abyssal Emperors... those beings have actually bypassed this defense line and moved on to the rear!"
...
