Chapter 460: Twenty-one heads
The sky over the Northern Border. The biting cold wind that had persisted for over a month seemed to carry a rare hint of respite.
With the force of a thunderbolt, Su Zhan reduced the last Calamity-level Ice Howl Lord that had been wreaking havoc deep within the Northern Border hinterland to ashes.
This marked that the large-scale Calamity-level threats along the Northern Border defense line had been essentially cleared out.
Although the remaining low-level Mist Creatures were still numerous, with the defenders' morale recovering, they could no longer pose a subversive crisis.
The battle situation in the Northern Border had temporarily stabilized.
The encrypted communication line connected, and Li Su's voice was filled with excitement.
"Mr. Su! I've read the Northern Border battle report countless times already! Unbelievable, it's simply unbelievable! In just over a month, you've fought across thousands of miles, consecutively slaying twenty-one Calamity-level entities! You single-handedly turned the precarious Northern Border defense line into an iron wall! Do you know what they're calling you in the military now? The Guardian Deity of the Northern Border! The Council of Elders has already decided that once the fighting eases slightly, they will hold the highest-level award ceremony for you! You are the indisputable pillar of our Daxia!"
Li Su's praise was sincere and heartfelt, brimming with the relief of having survived a catastrophe.
The stabilization of the Northern Border was of crucial importance to the entire Daxia war situation, and all of this could almost be said to have been turned around by Su Zhan alone.
