They were still pillaging excitedly before this, but the legion itself wasnt huge, and there were only so many people. They were also in enemy territory, so they were still comparatively careful. They would communicate with every small team leader after a period of ti to confirm everyones locations.
But when they were establishing communication once more, they realized to their surprise that many small teams werent responding, like they had gone missing just like that.
The two soul engineer legions leaders were running scared. They imdiately gave the order to gather in the sky and take a roll call.
Dou Ling City was in ruins. The city defense army were still blindly defending themselves against the soul engineer legions attacks, and the city was full of agonizing cries and chaos. Citizens were holed up in their houses, and nobody knew when a stationary soul cannon shell would land in their hos. Their walls didnt give them any security at all.
The attacks suddenly stopped at this mont. Shadows began flying high into the sky one after another, and they were evidently gathering.
I think theyve realized, Tang Wutong whispered in Huo Yuhaos ear.
Huo Yuhao scoffed and said, A soul engineer legion together is an extrely formidable entity, but if they are separated, they will die. The Sun Moon Empires soul engineer legions have won too many victories, thats the reason theyre so arrogant, and this hubris is an important reason why theyre losing their lives. Lets go. Well obliterate them so that we can avenge the Dou Ling Empires dead.
Huo Yuhao grasped Tang Wutongs hand and drifted upward as he spoke before they bolted into the air like a flash of lightning.
Huo Yuhao and Tang Wutong beca almost entirely like air with Imitation covering them, and they arrived at the soul engineers assembly point quicker than the soul engineers themselves.
Huo Yuhao could see six soul engineers hovering in midair with one look.
According to the Sun Moon Empires beast-ranked soul engineer legions organizational structure, every soul engineer legion had three legion commanders, one head commander and two vice-commanders.
These few should be their commanders. There were two head commanders, who were both Class 9 soul engineers, and there were four vice-commanders, who were Class 8 soul engineers. Huo Yuhao had already dealt with another Class 8 soul engineer back at the soul tool front. These two soul engineer legions had sent their best forces to participate in this operation.
Huo Yuhao held Tang Wutongs hand and waited quietly.
There were more soul engineers flying up from below at this mont, and they were all gathering at their assembly point.
Huo Yuhao didnt move, and he just waited quietly with Tang Wutong not far from those commanders.
The six commanders expressions were becoming increasingly darker. There was no way they couldnt, because there were far too few flying up from below. Furthermore, they were mostly missing entire small teams.
These small teams didnt even communicate at all.
The Evileye Tyrant Soul Engineer Legions commander was called Xia Xuanchen, and he was replacing the Manic Bull Douluo, Wang Yiheng. He was initially vice-commander before the Tang Sect dealt with Wang Yiheng, and was then promoted to head commander. His strength was still comparatively lower than the Imperial Dragon Soul Engineer Legions commander.
Old Xu, sothing doesnt seem right! We might be in trouble. Why are we missing so many people?
The person he referred to as Old Xu was the Imperial Dragon Soul Engineer Legions head commander, Xu Tianyuan. He belonged to the royal family, and the Imperial Dragon Soul Engineer Legion was under many of the royal family mbers control. They werent entirely obedient to the Emperors authority, and this legion could be considered one of the strongest forces that the royal family controlled.
Xu Tianyuan was also part of the royal family, and he should be considered Xu Tianrans older cousin in terms of seniority. But the truth was, he was much older than Xu Tianran was, and his status was one of the highest among the Sun Moon Empires royal family. Otherwise, he wouldnt be able to command the Imperial Dragon Soul Engineer Legion.
The Imperial Dragon Soul Engineer Legions strength was second only to the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineering Legion. Their nas were very similar, but they represented very different strengths.
The royal family was especially formidable when they ca together for certain designations, such as when the many princes were vying for the throne.
However, the Imperial Dragon Soul Engineer Legion had always been rather neutral. They didnt lean toward any prince, and their neutrality was the reason for their continued existence. They only served the royal family, and furthered their needs.
Yes, sothings wrong. Why are we missing so many people? Can it be because those little bastards are pillaging until theyve forgotten about discipline? Xu Tianyuan himself found that a little hard to believe when he spoke of that possibility.
Xia Xuanchen forced a laugh and said, Thats not quite possible, is it? Even if theyre off pillaging, its not possible that we cant communicate with them. The small team leaders cant be so shortsighted.
Xu Tianyuan nodded as he lowered his voice and said, If nobody else assembles, we will activate our linked defensive barrier and retreat. Weve achieved our goal, anyway.
Xia Xuanchen hesitated, then said, But were missing so many brothers.
Xu Tianyuan gritted his teeth and replied, What can we do if our enemy has powerful individuals hidden within the city? This is the Dou Ling Empires capital city, and I believe news of this ambush has already been sent out. Reinforcents will arrive very soon. Since we have accomplished our mission and we cant afford to deal with anything else, well retreat before considering other things. Safety cos first.
Alright. Even though they were both commanders of beast-ranked soul engineer legions, the Imperial Dragon Soul Engineer Legions commander, Xu Tianyuan, was the leader of this operation. Xia Xuanchen felt bad about his subordinates, but he had to be decisive at a ti like this.
More and more soul engineers began gathering around them.
Xu Tianyuan suddenly developed a strange sensation at this mont, and Xia Xuanchen felt the sa way.
They were both Class 9 soul engineers, and they had to be one of the better ones among their fellows for them to beco commanders of beast-ranked soul engineer legions.
Careful, Xia Xuanchen growled before he swung his right hand, and a brilliant silver warhamr suddenly appeared in his grip before it blasted out into so empty space.
Eh? A faint exclamation could be heard as countless small golden hamrs erupted from nothingness and expanded in all directions.
Xia Xuanchens hamr was very effective. The silver light diluted so of the golden light when the golden light erupted, but that was it.
Xia Xuanchen and Xu Tianyuan grunted before they flew backwards, and blood ran down their mouths and noses.
The strength of the two beast-ranked soul engineer legions commanders were displayed at a ti like this. In that mont when the golden light that had appeared out of nowhere erupted, both Xia Xuanchen and Xu Tianyuan patted their chests at almost the sa ti.
A formidable strength exploded forth from their human-shaped soul tools, and trendous propulsion forces blasted out in circles.
These propulsion forces didnt just propel them out like an arrow, but also propelled their vice-commanders and the other soul engineers who had just assembled around them toward the periphery. They were like snowflakes and flowers dancing through the sky for a mont.
Mantra Amidst the Void, Spiritual Tempest!
Huo Yuhao and Tang Wutongs figures appeared from the air. That previous attack was Spiritual Tempest, one of their formidable martial soul fusion skills.
However, not even Huo Yuhao had expected the Sun Moon Empires powerful individuals to react so quickly. They chose the best thod to deal with Spiritual Tempest.
The two commanders had erupted with powerful propulsion forces that even Tang Wutong and he were affected by to a certain extent. The other three hundred soul engineers also instantly dispersed, and most of them avoided Spiritual Tempests area of effect.
But most didnt an all of them, and the heads of so thirty-odd soul engineers closest to Spiritual Tempests epicenter exploded in the air. Blood spurted from the tops of their heads as their corpses plumted toward the ground.
The four vice-commanders were stunned from that formidable spiritual shock, but Xu Tianyuan and Xia Xuanchen werent. Their human-shaped soul tools were Class 9 soul tools, which were equipped with strong defensive capabilities. Furthermore, individuals at their level were undoubtedly equipped with soul tools that could protect them against spiritual attacks.
Therefore, even though they took the brunt of the attack and also felt dizzy, they sacrificed two of their precious defensive soul tools ant for spiritual attacks before they forcibly protected themselves against Huo Yuhao and Tang Wutongs Spiritual Tempest.
Huo Yuhao trained his eyes on Xia Xuanchen, especially that silver hamr in his hands.
That silver hamr wasnt a soul tool. Instead, it was a martial soul. A Class 9 soul engineer had actually used his martial soul at such a crucial mont, and this ant that Xia Xuanchen wasnt just a soul engineer. He was a true Titled Douluo at the sa ti.
There are truly many powerful individuals hidden within the Sun Moon Empire!
But Huo Yuhao didnt stop. He was faced with hundreds of soul engineers, and any pause ant that his enemies would team up against him. He took this opportunity when both soul engineer legions were in disarray, and he and Tang Wutong pounced at Xia Xuanchen with a flash.
The stronger their opponent, the quicker they had to destroy them. Furthermore, these two commanders were very effective at commanding their soul engineer legions. Huo Yuhao and Tang Wutong had to kill them first before they could co closer to destroying these two soul engineer legions.
Xia Xuanchen could tell that he was Huo Yuhaos target when he caught the look in his eyes. Silver light erged from his body as he released a Class 9 protective barrier.
Huo Yuhao and Tang Wutong arrived in a flash. A bright and crisp dragon roar rang out from Tang Wutongs body as she punched at Xia Xuanchens barrier, while Huo Yuhao pushed out with his left hand.
Their attacks seed simple and unassuming, but Xia Xuanchens senses saved him once more in that mont. He could feel the terrifying power contained in that fist and palm. They seed so simple, but they made him feel like his life was in danger.
