In his mind, a mecha troop’s worth of military might was enough to overwhelm the soul beasts. It included one thousand mechas and a large number of supportive and offensive soul devices. These large-scale soul devices were powerful enough to shock the soul beasts into retreating.

He felt that by mobilizing so many military forces was more than enough of a precaution.

He had never expected to receive bad news after the mecha troop was sent out for less than half a day.

As they were heading to their coordinates, they suddenly encountered a ferocious attack. Countless enemies appeared from all directions like a storm and devoured the entire mecha troop within mere moments.

The Northern Army Corps’ mecha troop was a fully functional, organized military squad! Guo Zhenfeng’s jaw dropped upon learning of the situation. He could not afford such immense losses! How was he going to justify this to the military headquarters?

Fortunately, he made a display of his aptitude as a renowned general of his time. Firstly, he calmed himself. Then, he sought reinforcements from the military headquarters at once. Moreover, he submitted all the information acquired to the headquarters swiftly. Meanwhile, he ordered the remaining five divisions at Thule to head inland and put down five defensive lines. He mobilized all the resources he could to defend against the enemy’s massive attack.

In the report submitted to the headquarters, Guo Zhenfeng stated that they were definitely not fighting against the soul beasts on the northern ice sheet, but a special species of creatures.

The abyssal creatures’ appearance was clearly different from the soul beasts in Thule. Guo Zhenfeng was a Title Douluo-ranked powerhouse too and he had knowledge of soul beasts as well. These abyssal creatures did not fall into anything he knew of soul beasts. He had also described the invasion situation as being extremely severe.

It was precisely due to his prompt report to his superiors that he managed to give the Federation some extra time to prepare.

Nevertheless, Guo Zhenfeng had never expected that three defensive lines would be broken within such a short amount of time. He had dispatched many soldiers to build five lines, most of which had defense systems.

What was the significance of three broken defensive lines? It meant that more than half of the Northern Army Corps’ military forces had already been completely annihilated from this world including supplies, gears and supporting units.

It was too fast. It had only taken one day’s time!

How many soul devices were there in an army corps? There were countless weapons in addition to strategic fixed soul ammunition.

All three of the rank-9 fixed soul ammunitions allocated to the Northern Army Corps had been sent to the battlefield, but it had only managed to slow down the opponent’s formidable offensive slightly. After the momentary hindrance, the terrifying creatures charged at them once again, slamming into the defensive line.

The soul communicator call was made by Guo Zhenfeng’s deputy regimental commander. He had personally commanded the frontline at the forefront of the battle.

He knew his old partner better than anybody else. The man was an iron-blooded soldier! He would never seek reinforcements in such a manner unless they had really failed to hold.

“Dispatch my order. Send all the forces in the fifth line to strengthen the fourth line. Get the attention of the entire army and pass down my exact words. I want every brother to hear me.”

“Brothers, I’m Guo Zhenfeng. Our Northern Army Corps is encountering an unprecedented attack at this moment. However, you must remember that the wide expanse of the Douluo Continent is right behind us. There are thousands of citizens in the Federation, our flourishing cities, and our families and friends. We are the last line of defense guarding the continent. If we fall, the people will be plunged into misery and suffering. I’m heading to the frontline now to join our forces defending us. The last line of defense is also the lifeline of our family and friends. The only thing we can do now is give our lives to protect it. Brothers, I’m no longer the regimental commander now. From this moment onward, we are brothers-in-arms that share our life and death. As long as I can still breathe, I, Guo Zhenfeng, will never retreat from the frontline. I love the northern defense line. For the Federation, for my family, for our young blood, we shall kill those disgusting creatures!”

Guo Zhenfeng finished his emotional, motivational speech and sent it to the entire army corps. He then turned around immediately and said to his staff officer secretary, “All the soldiers, follow me to the frontline now. Where is my guard battalion? Let’s go. We shall not tarry even for a moment.”

The staff officer panicked.

“Regimental commander, you can’t go. We still need you here to lead the army corps and mobilize the forces! Also, what if the military headquarters were to send over an order?”

Guo Zhenfeng said coldly, “We’ve already given a full report of the situation to the military headquarters. I’ve carried out my reporting duties. You’ve been with me for so many years and you’ve seen me leading and commanding the army corps. Furthermore, there’s nothing else for me to command. You should stay and report the situation at the frontline to the military officers. We’ll see when the military headquarters’ reinforcement comes which will decide if we live. As the regimental commander of the Northern Army Corps, I must join my brothers now. As the federal military officers, I can’t hide in fear.”

“Regimental commander!” The staff officer secretary’s eyes reddened at once. “I’m going to join you. I want to be with my brothers too.”

“Preposterous! You’ll be more useful if you stay here. What can you do at the frontline with your weak capabilities? Stop talking nonsense and stay here. I’m departing!” He walked to the outside in long strides upon saying that.

He had only walked for a few steps when he suddenly stopped. He turned around once again and looked toward the staff officer secretary. He hesitated for a moment before he said, “If I die in battle, please help to pass my message to Shen Yue. I worked so hard just so I can be a worthy partner to her one day.”

Upon saying that, Guo Zhenfeng straightened his military cap and gave the staff officer secretary a military salute.

The staff officer secretary and the Northern Army Corps’ soldiers in the surroundings stood upright and returned Guo Zhenfeng’s military salutation.

“I pledge to live and die with the defense line!”

Guo Zhenfeng’s proclamation was akin to a shot of adrenalin that coursed through the entire Northern Army Corps instantaneously.

There was a saying that ‘an incapable soldier is just a soldier, but an incapable commander will make a team of incapable soldiers’. When the supreme commander showed his leadership by example, the soldiers were united as if they had just consumed Bloodthirst Bean Buns!

Twelve hours later at the northern front line, there was artillery fire across the battlefield.

“Boom! Boom! Boom!”

The entire northern front line was not formed on flat ground. it was formed from crisscross screens placed at high and low strategic locations. All the mountain slopes were equipped with heavy artillery fire and defended by numerous soldiers. The hill-like terrain was converted into an extremely comprehensive defense system.

There were many glaciers and dangerous peaks in the north.

In order to enter inland through Thule, one would need to cross the glacier and the treacherous peaks first. This path which went through a specific chokepoint was the only one that led inland from Thule. The remaining paths were icy waters with exceedingly low temperatures where unique sea soul beasts lived.

At that moment, abyssal creatures that stretched as far as the eyes could see were charging toward the Northern Army Corps’ final defensive line like a tide.

A constant stream of gray mist floated into the distance continuously from the point at the front line. The mist came from the slain abyssal creatures.

Guo Zhenfeng had never experienced such a battle ever since he enlisted. He had never encountered enemies that could not be exhausted.
