The truth was—her style of warfare was simply too insane...
Within the Federal Military Operations Command Center.
Yu Guanzhi took a deep breath, forcing himself to stay calm. "Compile the data. Begin analysis."
Soon, data reports came in. The Abyssal Bomb Bees attacked by self-detonation. At the moment of explosion, they generated immense blast force and destructive energy.
A single one wasn't enough to break through a soul-guided aircraft's shield. But just moments ago, each group of Bomb Bees numbered over a hundred. The shields naturally couldn't withstand such a concentrated detonation.
And in the face of this kind of coverage bombardment, no amount of combat skill mattered before acceleration kicked in. There was simply no time to react.
"According to analysis, these large abyssal bees have a time limit after accelerating. Some that missed the air fleet exploded a short distance later on their own. Recommendation: after they accelerate, the best course of action is to evade them and let them self-detonate."
The operations staff officer provided the assessment. But after saying this, even he gave a bitter smile.
Evading a wide-area, supersonic assault in an instant? That was far easier said than done.
The destruction of the First Air Corps was a heavy blow. The aircraft could be replaced. But those fifty ace pilots? Who knew how long it would take to train a new group of that caliber?
"Full barrage! Suppress them! Suppress those bees!"
"Don't let the swarm through!"
"Lock the coordinates—fire!"
From afar, the main cannons aboard the three major federal fleets began adjusting their barrels, aiming toward the same direction.
The Northern Legion, the Western Legion, the Northwestern Legion, and the Central Legion all had their long-range soul cannons adjust simultaneously.
Rumble...
The deafening roar of heavy artillery seemed to shake the heavens. The first wave of firepower erupted like it would awaken the entire polar north.
Even those deep within the Abyssal Core could faintly hear the distant thunder of cannons.
In that moment, the suppressive barrage caused chain reactions—Abyssal Bomb Bees exploding in droves.
Even the abyssal army regrouping in the distance stirred with unease.
The sky brightened, illuminated by countless soul-guided shells. The overwhelming barrage painted the heavens and exposed the abyssal forces below in stark detail.
The abyssal army wasn't idle. Upon hearing the bombardment, they immediately responded.
Giant Guardian Beetles emerged amidst the abyssal ranks. One after another, they spread their wings, forming enormous shields over a hundred meters in diameter to protect the creatures beneath them. At the same time, their bodies emitted thick purple energy barriers that extended even further. On the ground, massive hemispherical shields had formed, sheltering the majority of the abyssal army within.
Next, a flurry of black dots shot into the sky, intercepting the incoming barrage. They were Abyssal Bomb Bees.
In the air, they rapidly accelerated and collided with the descending soul-guided artillery.
These suicide attacks intercepted shells mid-air.
Inside the Abyssal Passage, Queen Bee had already regained her composure. She hovered in the air, her entire body becoming translucent green. Below, the Ghost Emperor and other Holy Spirit Sect powerhouses could clearly sense the overwhelming spiritual pressure radiating from her.
Queen Bee's individual combat power was arguably the weakest among the Nine Abyssal Emperors. But her race—the Bomb Bees—possessed some of the strongest overall battle capabilities, all due to control.
Her spiritual power was strong enough to precisely monitor and direct the flight path of every single Bomb Bee.
Boom—!
A dense series of explosions erupted in the sky, turning into vast glowing clouds, unleashing terrifying energy storms.
The aerial shockwave came first, followed a moment later by the thunderous blasts on the ground. Violent bombardment swept across the entire area in an instant.
It had to be said—the Abyssal Bomb Bees' interception was remarkably effective. A large number of soul-guided shells were intercepted before detonation.
But once those shells did explode, the usefulness of the Bomb Bees dropped drastically. The immense energy storms rendered them unable to even approach.
And the Federal barrage—this was only the beginning!
Inside the Operations Command Center, Yu Guanzhi was continuously issuing orders. The firepower from the seven legions was rotating in seamless waves, never pausing.
So what if the first volley had been intercepted by the Bomb Bees? The second round was already underway.
This was true carpet bombing. Relentless. The core region of the far north had already been blasted into a near-apocalyptic state.
"Satellite signal!" Yu Guanzhi shouted.
One of the large displays in the command center switched perspectives.
This was a high-altitude satellite view of the Far North.
Just as Yu Guanzhi had expected, the black fog over the Abyssal Core had dissipated significantly under the intense bombardment. They could now clearly see the battlefield below.
"Zoom in!" Yu Guanzhi stepped up to the screen, observing intently.
The screen magnified, and a massive crater came into view. But due to the ongoing bombardment, much of the detail was obscured. It could only be vaguely seen that the bombardment had not yet reached the crater's center.
"Lock coordinates. Adjust attack trajectory!" Yu Guanzhi shouted excitedly.
"Prepare rank-nine fixed-installation soul-guided shells. Fire ten in unison. Target: Abyssal Passage."
The order was immediately repeated by a staff officer. Not far away, one by one, the launch silos opened. Ten rank-nine fixed-installation soul-guided shells were loaded into their respective tubes.
The sight of ten rank-nine shells launching simultaneously hadn't been seen in ages.
Clunk—
The silos opened. With a deafening roar, one after another, the massive soul shells launched into the sky.
At this level, each shell radiated terrifying oppressive force just by existing.
As the ten rank-nine shells ascended in unison, it felt like the end of the world was nigh.
That crushing pressure surged toward the Abyssal Passage like a tidal wave. And all around them, the rest of the artillery became even more frenzied, unleashing hell upon the abyssal forces.
Through the satellite feed, they could see the Abyssal Passage engulfed in churning black mist—gray-black abyssal energy had risen, blanketing the battlefield.
Clearly, the bombardment was working.
