Tang Wulin had a slight frown. That would be a delicate position to maintain.

Zang Xin continued, “Due to the attack on our headquarters, we can’t spare too many personnel to help you. Only the worshippers from the two continents’ branches can provide you with assistance once you’re there. Have a safe journey.”

“We’ll give it our all.” Tang Wulin nodded solemnly.

On this journey, they would be facing the high-ranking officials of two countries. They would have to deal with the infighting in the Dou Spirit and Star Luo Empires. They would probably have to deal with the Spirit Pagoda and the Holy Spirit Cult. Their every step was filled with peril.

It was not an easy task to arrive at their final goal.

“The plan was put in place long ago. I won’t talk too much about that. Sect Master, if something can’t be done, remember, your own safety must take priority. You’re the Tang Sect’s hope, as well as Shrek’s. You must take extra care of yourself when fighting the experts from the Holy Spirit Cult. The Holy Spirit Cult may have infiltrated the two empires already. Maybe even the federal army. Such spies would certainly be the Holy Spirit Cult’s veterans. Once the war starts and there is a large number of casualties, that’s when they’ll make trouble. What you must do is to stop all this from happening. You’ll surely face a large number of the Holy Spirit Cult’s elite.”

“The Holy Spirit Cult!” When he spewed these three words, Tang Wulin’s eyes were filled with killing intent. It could be said that he had a blood feud with the Holy Spirit Cult. Many Shrek Academy teachers had died in the great explosion caused by the Holy Spirit Cult all those years ago.

After sending the Amorous Douluo off, Tang Wulin organized his thoughts. This time, what he was about to do could very well change the situation on the entire continent. He was slightly excited, but he felt heavy-hearted as well. If he had not experienced what he had gone through, he might not even be qualified to do this.

Elder Long, the Amorous Douluo and the Heartless Douluo had high expectations of him. He had to succeed in this endeavor no matter what.

Their roster journeying to the two empires this time could also be described as grand. They were the current Shrek Seven Monsters, Strength God, the Body Douluo A Ruheng, Gale Saber Demon, the Saber God Douluo Sima Jinchi, all members of the Blood Dragon Unit, and Her Excellency the Holy Spirit Douluo.

Although Elder Long and the Amorous Douluo were not involved in the operation, the Holy Spirit Douluo Yali had requested that she accompany them on their journey out of concern for their well-being.

She was the best Recovery System soul master on the continent. With her present, the safety of the entire team was greatly increased.

The Holy Spirit Douluo was a rank-98 Title Douluo. Even Tang Wulin and the others were unsure just how powerful she was. However, they knew that she was equal to a Hyper Douluo when she fought an evil soul master.

If the Holy Spirit Cult had not unleashed Godkiller-ranked fixed soul ammunition back then, Shrek Academy would not have been that easily crushed, given its strength.

Other than experts of high-rank, the Tang Sect’s Douluo Hall also sent a brigade of mechas to accompany them.

This was the fighting force which the Tang Sect had kept hidden. They were all equipped with superior equipment and the mechas were manned by soul masters with cultivation bases of five rings and above. There was a total of a hundred and twenty mechas in the mecha brigade. This included twenty black mechas and a hundred purple mechas. This brigade was formidable.

There was a total of six mecha army corps in the entire Douluo Federation. Every army corps had three thousand mechas. An army corps would have twenty black mechas at most.

Every mecha army corps was supported by twenty thousand men in logistics and various support vehicles. Their equipment was uncountable.

The Tang Sect’s mecha brigade was on par with one-third of a mecha army corps’ combat force.

In modern warfare on the Douluo Continent, mechas were mainly involved in terrestrial and low altitude battles. High altitude battles were the domain of fighter aircraft.

Currently, there were three soul fighter aircraft brigades on the Douluo Continent. There was a total of about a thousand soul fighter aircraft. This was their greatest advantage which they could use to completely suppress the other two continents.

The Star Luo Empire and the Dou Spirit Empire were clearly lagging behind in fighter aircraft and mecha technology. This was especially true in terms of soul fighter aircraft. Even the highest estimates numbered the Star Luo Empire’s units at less than two hundred. In terms of technology, they were at least a generation behind the Douluo Continent.

The Dou Spirit Empire had a hundred fighter planes at most. The state of their technology was worse than the Star Luo Empire.

Tang Wulin had done some research with the high-ranking officials in the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy before. If a war did break out, the Federation’s first move would be to annihilate the Star Luo and Dou Spirit Empires’ aerial forces to gain control of the skies.

Although mechas could also fly, their speed was much slower than a soul fighter aircraft, unless it was a black mecha.

A mecha would also consume more energy than a fighter aircraft.

Currently, soul fighter aircraft technology was developing at a fast pace. It was even starting to incorporate some outer-space technology which was still experimental. Compared to mechas, the cost of building fighter aircraft was expensive. However, it had many more possibilities. After all, it was impossible for a mecha to go into space, at least not with the technology available at the time. That feat was only possible for divine mechas.

Other than the mecha brigade, the Tang Sect also sent fighter aircraft to escort them. They were all products of the latest technology. However, they were not used to battle. Their function was a means of escape for Tang Wulin and the others if and when things went out of control. They had considered all possible outcomes.

“Yuxue, do you have time? We’ll have a stroll at the beach.”

“Sure!”

Tang Wulin did not wake the others, leaving the hotel with Long Yuxue silently. They hailed a taxi and went toward the seaside.

Although it had been three months, they were still not done making of their three-word battle armor. The higher the battle armor’s rank, the more difficult it was to design and inscribe the soul circuit. Currently, the Shrek Seven Monsters were in the awkward situation of not having battle armors to use. All the metals for the mechas had completed Soul Forging.

Hence, it could be said that with every battle armor piece that Yuanen Yehui and Ye Xinglan made, the strength of their team could be increased by a notch.

When it came to three-word battle armor, the process was not solely reliant on one’s own strength. It also had a lot to do with one’s luck. It was not easy to accomplish it perfectly.

This was especially true when Tang Wulin had forged almost all the metals they had to make the three-word battle armor using the most extreme methods. This had made the making of the three-word battle armor very difficult. Yuanen Yehui and Ye Xinglan were already giving it their all. However, if they wanted to complete everyone’s three-word battle armor, it would take some time.

Tang Wulin lowered the window slightly and took in the sea breeze with its fishy and tangy smell. He felt a rare sensation of relaxation. His gaze seemed unfocused on anything outside the window. For Tang Wulin, it was rare to have time to simply be.

He had been away from home for so long that the concept of having one seemed distant to him now. However, when the familiar aroma filled his nostrils, it still gave him the feeling of being in a dream.

Tang Wulin suddenly felt that the happiest moment for him was not in his everyday improvement, but it was actually the days when he was free of worries with his parents and Na’er.

Even though those memories of his were fading now, every time he reminisced about it, he would still be filled with happiness.

He would look for his parents and Na’er no matter what. Gu Yue had Na’er’s appearance and even changed her name to Gu Yuena. He had been avoiding this all the while. However, avoiding it was not a solution. Tang Wulin knew in the depths of his heart that Na’er’s disappearance must have been connected to Gu Yue.

When he returned from his mission to the two empires, he was sure that his strength would have reached a new level again. When that time came, he would ask Gu Yuena about this no matter what. He would ask her where Na’er was and ask her about…

He heaved a long sigh. Tang Wulin’s gaze started becoming lost. Every time he thought about Gu Yuena, he could not calm his heart.

Long Yuxue sat beside Tang Wulin. He was looking outside the window, but her eyes were on him.

His eyelashes were really long. Even Long Yuxue, as a woman, was jealous of them. His eyes were too beautiful, especially when he was simply gazing dreamily. His face was so gentle that it broke her heart.

Gradually, he appeared gloomier. Maybe what the others saw was his outstanding qualities, formidable power, and immense natural talents, and perhaps it was because she had been paying him too much attention, but Long Yuxue saw many things about him which the others did not.

‘He’s shouldering too much. Something must have happened between him and his girlfriend. Otherwise, why isn’t she here beside him, after so long?’

‘He’s such a good man, so why is his girlfriend unwilling to stay by his side?’

Tang Wulin was like a mystery and a trap to her. She clearly knew that the closer she got to him, the harder it would be for her to extract herself from this. However, Long Yuxue could not help but be attracted to him.

‘It’s unfortunate being with a man like this, but I think that knowing him is one of the most interesting things that has happened to me.’ Long Yuxue knew that she had never regretted liking this man beside her.
