All Forces Enter Level Three Combat Readiness
The lieutenant grabbed the communicator from the console and shouted rapidly but clearly, "Level 9 high-energy reaction detected, coordinates 128.79, altitude 1200 meters, rapidly approaching. Forward patrol units, please confirm the source immediately!"
The Soul Guidance Radar can only detect energy intensity and movement trajectory. The origin of the two constantly approaching red dots on the screen still needs to be confirmed by human visual inspection.
The moment the order was given, two Mecha formations that were conducting routine patrols in the airspace around North Sea City simultaneously increased their altitude and rapidly approached the direction indicated by the coordinates.
Before long, the voice of the leader of the forward Mecha formation came through the communication channel.
"Source confirmed: A human Titled Douluo!"
"Repeated, source confirmed, it's a human Titled Douluo, not a weapon-based strike unit!"
Upon hearing this, a chorus of sighs of relief could be heard throughout the monitoring center.
The lieutenant's tense shoulders visibly slumped, as long as it wasn't Level 9 Fixed Soul Guidance Shell.
Soon, the Mecha formation ahead transmitted another image, captured from a high altitude at a long distance.
The image was projected onto the largest Soul Guidance Screen in the monitoring center. After magnification, everyone could see that two figures were flying side by side through the air.
Each of them was wrapped in a cocoon of Soul Power, within which the figures of several young boys and girls could be faintly seen.
After seeing their faces clearly, almost everyone in the monitoring center recognized them at the same time.
Leng Yaozhu, Vice Tower Master of the Spirit Pagoda Sky Phoenix Douluo Leng Yaozhu.
And Yun Ming, the Sea God Pavilion Master of Shrek Academy and the Sky-Supporting Douluo.
Although these two are high-ranking members of the most powerful forces on the mainland, they shouldn't harbor any ill will towards the North Sea Legion.
However, the simultaneous appearance of two top experts in North Sea City put everyone present on edge once again.
Without the slightest hesitation, the lieutenant grabbed the communicator again and immediately reported the situation to the legion headquarters.
While in mid-air, Huo Yuhao could clearly see the coastal city built along the sea in the distance below.
The city is not very large; gray and white buildings stretch along the winding coastline.
Without a doubt, this is North Sea City.
As they approached the edge of North Sea City, Yun Ming and Leng Yaozhu slowed down almost simultaneously, their figures descending slowly from the sky before landing steadily on a wide grassland on the outskirts of the city.
It has only been a little over two hours since the train was attacked, and they have already covered a distance that would take an ordinary Soul Train several hours to complete.
However, a question arose in Huo Yuhao and the others' minds: Yun Ming and Leng Yaozhu did not continue forward, but stood still as if waiting for something.
Before Huo Yuhao could even ask a question, his gaze caught two rapidly enlarging black dots in the distant sky.
Two figures flew out of North Sea City and instantly swept across the sky above the city's outskirts, landing steadily in front of everyone.
These were two officers in the Federation Army. The one in the lead looked to be in his fifties, with a resolute, chiseled face, slightly graying temples, and two gleaming gold stars on his epaulets—clearly a Federation lieutenant general.
The officer behind him was much younger, a woman who looked to be no more than twenty years old, with a pretty face and an upright posture.
But she wore a general's star on her epaulets, indicating that she was already a major general at a young age.
Yun Ming's gaze swept over the two of them indifferently. He did not recognize the young female major general, but she was probably a rising star in the Federation Army.
However, he did have some impression of the lieutenant general in charge. Luo Tingxuan was from the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Master Academy and was now the commander of the North Sea Legion. He was a powerful expert at the Titled Douluo level and had been stationed in the North Sea Legion for more than ten years.
Facing two Limit Douluo, Luo Tingxuan dared not be arrogant in the slightest.
His tone was respectful yet retained his military bearing as he asked, "What brings Your Excellencies to North Sea City?"
Yun Ming was well aware of the true purpose of the North Sea Legion's presence here. While it was said to be for defense against Sea Soul Beast, it was actually to guard against the Shrek Academy and to monitor the movements of Devil Island.
As the Sea God Pavilion Master, if he were to appear in North Sea City quietly, it would inevitably cause unnecessary suspicion and commotion if he were discovered.
That's why he took the initiative to stop, openly reveal his identity, and put his itinerary out in the open to avoid trouble.
That's all. Yun Ming won't give Luo Tingxuan a friendly look, even though the other party is the commander of the North Sea Legion.
Without wasting any words, Yun Ming got straight to the point. "Send them to Devil Island."
Upon hearing this, Luo Tingxuan's eyes flashed with undisguised surprise.
It's no secret within the North Sea Legion that Devil Island serves as Shrek Academy's "military training" base.
Every few years, a group of students from the Shrek Academy would come to North Sea City and set sail from there to Devil Island.
Those trainees caused the North Sea Legion a lot of trouble in their attempt to get to the island. Some forged passes, others climbed over the walls and broke into the port in the dead of night. Their methods were endless, and the North Sea Legion ' patrols were constantly annoyed by them.
However, the students always found their way there on their own; the academy never sent teachers to escort them, which had almost become an unwritten rule.
But this time, not only were people sent to escort them, but two Limit Douluo personally went along?
Luo Tingxuan's gaze swept back and forth between Yun Ming and Leng Yaozhu, pondering whether there was some hidden meaning behind it that he was unaware of.
He tentatively began, "To require two Your Majesties to personally escort you? That's rather..."
Before he could finish speaking, Yun Ming glanced at him and said calmly, "Don't overthink it. I just came to let you know."
After saying this, Yun Ming didn't even give Luo Tingxuan time to react. His Soul Power surged out again, enveloping Huo Yuhao and the others once more.
He and Leng Yaozhu took off at the same time, flying towards the North Sea, leaving the two generals standing there looking at each other in bewilderment.
Luo Tingxuan looked in the direction where Yun Ming had disappeared, his brows furrowing slightly.
The young female major general behind him stepped forward and stood beside Luo Tingxuan, her gaze also fixed on the direction where Yun Ming had disappeared.
Her name is Shen Xing. At a young age, she has already risen to the rank of major general. In the North Sea Legion, she is widely regarded as the most promising candidate to succeed Luo Tingxuan as corps commander after he retires.
At this moment, she asked in a low, cool voice, "Martial Brother, Qingtian Douluo really just here to send someone away?"
Luo Tingxuan turned around, looked at his junior sister who was always meticulous, and slowly shook his head. "Even if it's not, with the strength of the Qingtian Douluo, if he really wanted to do something, our entire North Sea Legion couldn't stop him even if we joined forces."
After saying that, he sighed heavily, his voice filled with weariness and helplessness. "I can only hope that nothing unexpected happens."
Finally, he composed himself, his complex expression vanishing, replaced by the authority and decisiveness of a legion commander. He turned to look at Shen Xing and ordered in a deep voice, "Give the order: the entire army is to immediately enter a state of Level Three combat readiness."
"Everyone needs to be on high alert these days, closely monitoring any activity in the Devil Island area. Report any unusual activity immediately."
Shen Xing's expression turned serious, and his voice was crisp and clear. "Yes!"
