I Represent the Star Luo Empire, Following Tang Wulin to the Douluo Continent

"A moment of a spring night is worth a thousand pieces of gold; we can discuss the rest later."

Red waves rolled, and the night passed in silence.

The next morning, as the first rays of sunlight refracted through the glazed tiles of the Star Luo Imperial Palace into the room, Luo Feng opened his eyes, feeling refreshed and invigorated.

In his arms, Dai Yun'er was still breathing evenly and sweetly, her delicate little face flushed with a satisfied glow.

For Luo Feng, this night was, in every sense of the word, a "rebirth."

Not only had he completed a major life milestone, but more importantly, the system notifications constantly chiming in his mind told him that his "good brother," the Vanguard Titan, had undergone an epic-level evolution.

[Good morning, Ironclad.]

BT's familiar, slightly metallic electronic voice rang out punctually in Luo Feng's sea of consciousness.

[Last night, the system fully analyzed and absorbed the '100,000-year-old Beast: Dark Demon Evil God Tiger' soul spirit.]

[Energy conversion rate reached a perfect 100%!]

[Congratulations, Ironclad. The Vanguard Titan has unlocked a brand-new tactical core: [Evil God Phase Shift Module].

This module integrates the space and time laws of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, allowing the unit to enter a high-dimensional hidden space for a short period.

It ignores the vast majority of physical and soul power attacks and comes with a powerful dark-attribute electromagnetic pulse (EMP) interference effect.]

[Additionally, regarding the weapon systems you are most concerned about: three [Level 11 Fixed Soul Guidance Cannons] have been successfully crafted as backups.

As for the legendary [Level 12 God-Slaying Soul Guidance Cannon], the progress bar has reached 15%.

The system is continuously calculating a stable matter-recombination equation.]

[As for the rest, there are about 300 units of Level 7-10 Soul Guidance Cannons in storage!]

Holy crap, while I was busy with Dai Yun'er last night, my Vanguard Titan was "feasting" away in the Star Luo Treasury...

"Well done, BT."

Luo Feng silently gave his mecha a mental thumbs-up.

With the [Evil God Phase Shift Module], the Vanguard Titan was no longer just a mobile nuclear arsenal.

It was now a heavily armored thug with the movement techniques of a top-tier assassin.

Offense and defense in one—simply perfect!

He carefully pulled his arm out from under Dai Yun'er and got dressed.

Today was the appointed day.

Since he had drunk the nuptial wine and taken his father-in-law's priceless dowry, he naturally had to fulfill his promise to Tang Wulin.

Outside Star Luo City, at a highly concealed Royal Military Port.

A deep-sea submarine, specially camouflaged and equipped with an anti-reconnaissance soul guidance array, sat quietly on the water.

Tang Wulin, Xie Xie, and the other members of the Shrek Seven Devils were already waiting on the deck.

Every face was etched with gravity and determination.

They were about to embark on a path filled with thorns, one of vengeance and reconstruction.

Just then, accompanied by a low engine roar, a Star Luo royal hover-car pulled steadily to a stop at the pier.

The door opened, and Luo Feng, dressed in a tight black outfit, stepped out with a brisk pace.

On his left wrist, he wore a space-compression bracer flickering with a faint blue light—the Vanguard Titan's portable containment device.

"Yo, good morning, everyone.

Looking at those serious expressions, one might think we were heading to a public execution."

Luo Feng waved his hand with a carefree, lighthearted smile.

Xie Xie's mouth twitched.

"Imperial Son-in-law Luo, we're going back to stir up trouble right under the Federation's nose; one wrong move and we're doomed.

Are you going to war, or are you going on vacation?"

"Correction."

Luo Feng held up a finger and walked over to Tang Wulin.

"I'm not going on vacation; I'm a 'super hired gun' that the Tang Sect Master paid for with a cup of wedding wine.

Leave professional matters to the professionals.

You lot handle the brainwork and coordination for rebuilding Shrek, and as for those blind dogs blocking our path..."

Luo Feng tapped the space bracer on his wrist, a flash of rebellious sharpness in his eyes: "I'll be the one to turn them into dust."

Tang Wulin looked at the high-spirited, unfathomably powerful young man before him, took a deep breath, and extended his right hand.

"Luo Feng, I won't say any more."

This journey to Douluo Continent, we live and die together.

"I'm counting on you!"

"I take the money, I handle the trouble. Let's go!"

Luo Feng also reached out his hand, gripping Tang Wulin's firmly.

The two great cheaters had officially joined forces!

As the submarine submerged, the group officially embarked on their voyage back to Douluo Continent.

Because the Sun Moon Federation's three major fleets had been wiped out in one fell swoop by a Vanguard Titan in the Star Luo waters not long ago, the entire Federation military was in a state of utter madness and paranoia.

The eastern coastline of Douluo Continent had been fortified like an iron bucket.

In the sky, hundreds of high-altitude reconnaissance soul guidance devices patrolled twenty-four hours a day; on the sea, dense sonar nets and anti-submarine mecha squadrons shuttled back and forth.

"Beep, beep, beep!"

The moment the submarine entered the coastal area less than fifty nautical miles from East Sea City on Douluo Continent, a piercing alarm sounded frantically in the control room.

"Oh no!"

Tang Wulin stood up abruptly, his expression changing drastically.

"The Federation changed the frequency of their coastal defense sonar; our stealth coating has been exposed! There's an enemy mecha squadron approaching rapidly from above, the number... is over one hundred! There are even five Black-Grade Mechas (Soul Douluo level) among them!"

"Prepare for battle!"

The Shrek Seven Devils instantly entered their highest state of combat readiness.

If they were pinned down here and drew the experts from the Federation's War God Temple, their plan to return would be dead in the water.

"Hey, hey, hey, put your martial souls away. Why so tense?"

Just as the atmosphere reached its breaking point, Luo Feng stood up from his chair unhurriedly and stretched his back.

He glanced at the dense cluster of red dots on the radar screen, a cruel smile curling at the corners of his mouth.

"Sect Master Tang, do you remember our agreement before we boarded? I said I was the super hired gun you employed. How could I let the future Sea God Pavilion Master dirty his hands with the grunt work of cleaning up small fry?"

"Luo Feng, that's an entire mecha battalion, and there are Black-Grade mecha pilots!" Tang Wulin frowned deeply. "Can your mecha exert its full power underwater?"

"Underwater?" Luo Feng chuckled and tapped his wrist guard sharply. "My Titan is a conqueror of the stars and seas; a mere two hundred meters of water depth is nothing!"

"BT, Protocol Three: Protect the Ironclad's allies. It's time for us to work!"

[Command confirmed. Environmental adaptation module activated. Evil God Phase Shift, ready.]

"Hum!"

There was no harsh summoning sound, nor any massive turbulence in the water.

Everyone in the submarine felt their vision blur for an instant.

An extremely evil, cold, and high-dimensional spatial fluctuation instantly penetrated the submarine's heavy armor.

Luo Feng vanished from inside the submarine entirely!

This was the spatial power the Vanguard Titan had just parsed from the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger.

It seemed quite useful!
