Douluo Amon: I am the Heavenly Venerable of the Dragon King.

Chapter 409 Carat: Please invite Commander Shen Yue down.

"Major General Kra, we have arrested all those involved in the case. What do you think?"

At the warehouse entrance, a senior colonel immediately ran over to report the situation to Kra.

"Very good. Go and notify the other officers of the rank of colonel and above. Next, our Northern Naval Corps should also get moving."

"Yes." The colonel immediately ran off.

After watching the colonel leave, Clara walked towards Shen Xing, who was still lying on the ground unable to move due to the paralyzing ray.

Shen Xing stared blankly at Kela. When her body was completely numb and she heard the warehouse manager say that he was going to take her away and hand her over to an unknown enemy, she was on the verge of a breakdown.

She knew, of course, how terrible it was to be captured by the enemy and held hostage to threaten her sister. It wasn't just a disaster for her, but for her entire family.

In her nightmare, her sister had compromised because she was held hostage by Tang Wulin. In reality, she believed that her sister would do the same thing for her, even if she didn't want to.

This is what true sisterly affection looks like.

The two sisters grew up together and had a very close relationship. She knew her older sister well; she was definitely biased towards family, regardless of right or wrong. In crucial moments, the older sister was more likely to become emotional.

If her sister were to commit a grave mistake for her sake, the family would inevitably suffer a devastating disaster. Therefore, in that instant, she wished she could die immediately rather than be taken away by Major Chen, the warehouse supervisor.

Every girl has a savior in her heart, especially in times of despair. Who doesn't hope that a hero will suddenly appear and save them?

However, Shen Xing never expected that the person who saved him would be Major General Kra.

Young Master Kra has been in the North Sea Fleet for almost a year now. During this time, he has been well-behaved. Although he chats with some officers, he hasn't done anything significant.

He showed absolutely no interest in vying for military power. It was as if he was there to retire. So she and her sister Shen Yue gradually lowered their guard against him.

Unexpectedly, Major General Krah made a stunning debut today, directly annihilating the three traitors.

Kela knelt down next to Shen Xing. "Staff Officer Shen, do you think this is a good opportunity? The warehouse manager is a traitor. He was smuggling soul-guided cannon shells when you discovered him, so he harbored malicious intentions and acted ruthlessly."

"Our beautiful Staff Officer Shen was caught off guard and heroically sacrificed her life. Then I heard Staff Officer Shen's dying cry. So I rushed to the scene and avenged Staff Officer Shen. Don't you think this story is touching?"

What!

Shen Xing's pretty face turned deathly pale instantly, because she suddenly remembered that in Kela's file, it was written that he had disregarded the lives of civilians when carrying out missions.

The Shen family represents the dove faction, while Clara is a hawk. Such a ruthless guy might take this opportunity to get rid of her.

Shen Xing's eyes darted around. She couldn't speak or move, but the fear in her eyes was exceptionally clear.

Looking at Shen Xing's fearful eyes, Clara smiled and said, "I was just joking with you, why did you take it seriously?"

If it were Shen Yue lying on the ground right now, then Kela might still consider whether or not to deal with her, but Shen Xing?

Forget it, she's just a small fry. Kra wouldn't dare to lay a hand on her. After all, Shen Yue isn't stupid. That flimsy story might not fool her.

Moreover, Shen Xing is also a witness.

Clara glanced at the ground; he could sense someone digging a hole underground. "It must be Tang Wulin and the others. Are they already preparing to leave Devil Island?"

Normally, Carat wouldn't mind messing around with Tang Wulin and the others, but for now, forget it.

After all, even if Tang Wulin and the others were captured, it wouldn't make a difference. They are students of Shrek Academy, and that alone means that Kra can't do anything to them.

Clara walked to the wall and pressed the alarm button.

A piercing alarm immediately resounded throughout the warehouse, then spread to the entire North Sea Legion base. The fixed-equipment soul-guided artillery shell warehouse was a key location for the legion, and its internal alarm was set to the highest level.

Soon, a team of fully armed soldiers from the Northern Navy Corps arrived, and at the same time, security inside the base was quickly brought to its maximum.

"Major General Kra, what exactly happened here? Please explain."

Leading this group of soldiers was a burly male officer with the rank of lieutenant colonel.

Upon seeing Kra, the lieutenant colonel did not approach him. Instead, he gave a signal to the soldiers around him, instructing them to aim their guns at Kra.

This lieutenant colonel was not one of Kra's people; he was considered part of Shen Yue's faction. He didn't have much affection for this parachuted-in major general.

Although Kra's rank was higher, he had no intention of letting his guard down at this moment. After all, an alarm had just sounded, and the warehouse manager and two captains lay dead at Kra's feet—something was definitely not right!

Was it an enemy in disguise? Or had Major General Krak betrayed them? The lieutenant colonel quickly began to think.

"Heh, the warehouse manager betrayed us. They secretly smuggled fixed-position soul-guided cannon shells out of the base. When I discovered this, they tried to resist, so I executed them on the spot."

Kra's expression showed no panic, nor did she approach them, which made the soldiers subconsciously breathe a sigh of relief.

After thinking for a moment, the lieutenant colonel said, "I'm sorry, Major General, there's no evidence to prove what you said, so please stay where you are and don't move until Commander Shen Yue arrives."

"No problem." Clara raised her hands in agreement, exposing Shen Xing behind her to the others' view. "And if we're talking about evidence, then Staff Officer Shen behind me should be a good witness."

The lieutenant colonel's expression changed, and he couldn't help but take a few steps forward, but he still had some sense and eventually retreated.

"You few go and check on Staff Officer Shen's situation," the lieutenant colonel instructed the soldiers around him.

"Yes." The soldiers stepped toward Shen Xing. When they passed Kela, he did not stop them, but simply stepped aside to let them pass, which greatly reduced the pressure on the soldiers.

After all, rank matters, and to reach the rank of Major General, one needs not only military merit and connections, but also at least the status of a Soul Saint. How could ordinary soldiers not feel pressured when facing Kra?

"Sir, Staff Officer Shen is not in mortal danger. He was just hit by a paralyzing ray and is temporarily unable to move. He will be able to move freely again after a while."

The soldiers quickly completed the inspection and reported to the lieutenant colonel.

As time went on, more and more people gathered around. A large number of soldiers surrounded the warehouse completely.

Step, step, step.

Shen Yue, dressed in military uniform, quickly arrived at the warehouse, and the surrounding soldiers saluted her.

Upon arriving at the warehouse, Shen Yue saw her younger sister's weakened state, and a surge of intense anger welled up within her. Looking at Major General Kra, surrounded by soldiers, Shen Yue asked in a low voice, "What exactly happened?"

Clara smiled. "Commander Shen, let your sister explain the details to everyone herself. Also, I think we need to hold a military conference next."

Shen Yue's expression changed, and a strong sense of unease washed over her.

……

Meanwhile, in a corner below the base, Tang Wulin and his group quickly lifted the metal floorboards. "Quick, such a big thing just happened, the entire Northern Navy Legion is definitely on high alert. We must take advantage of their attention still being on that warehouse and evacuate quickly."

Tang Wulin and his companions had just come out of Devil Island, and in those short four months, they had suffered terribly.

No one expected that shortly after they arrived on Devil's Island, they would be dragged into a dream by one of the Nightmare Demons. The illusion was so terrifying that they might have lived in it for over a year.

However, after the old demons explained, they learned that the flow of time within the illusion was only a quarter of that outside, and they had only been here for a little over four months.

After more than four months of rigorous training, they have all undergone a complete transformation, and today marks the day they have completed their military training and are ready to return to the academy.

When leaving Devil Island, Tang Wulin and his companions discussed the matter and decided that digging directly from underground would be the best solution.

After all, this is the least likely way to be detected. Once inside the Northern Fleet, it is much easier to leave. Moreover, it incorporates everyone's experience of infiltrating the Northern Fleet multiple times in their nightmares.

They could roughly determine that the warehouse was relatively close to the inland area, meaning they only needed a shorter distance to escape the control of the Northern Fleet.

In fact, they have another advantage: they are not afraid of being caught.

Having finished their training on Devil's Island, they no longer needed to worry about wasting time here. They had indeed flown a Sky Soaring Seventeen from here, but only that one was real; the rest were all simulated by Nightmare Old Demon using his dreams.

This is no small offense, but given their status as the Shrek Seven Devils, the military will certainly not do anything to them; at most, they will just notify the academy.

Therefore, they could have been caught immediately after leaving the sea, made up a plausible story, and escaped, though it would have taken a little longer.

Unfortunately, given their personalities, they were clearly unwilling to return to the academy looking so dejected. Otherwise, wouldn't all the torment they had endured on Devil's Island have been for nothing? They had learned so much; they should put it to good use.

Little did they expect that just as they were about to burst out of the ground, they would witness such a grand spectacle.

They had already overheard some things while they were underground, and originally planned to help that Staff Officer Shen and do her a favor.

However, upon seeing Kra's appearance and hearing the alarms sounding from the Northern Fleet, they promptly fled.

Fortunately, perhaps because the entire Northern Navy's attention was drawn to that warehouse, Tang Wulin and his companions managed to slip away after knocking out several officers and disguising themselves as them.

These abilities were all learned on Devil's Island.

The seven old demons taught them more than just simple makeup techniques; they also taught them infiltration skills. How to change body shape, how to change speech and behavior, how to change voice. With sufficient soul power, all of this was not difficult.

It just requires a rather painful training process. But compared to being tortured by those old demons, what is this pain?

……

Northern Navy Corps.

Shen Yue listened to her sister's story with a gloomy expression, her mood at its lowest point.

There was a traitor within the Northern Navy Legion, and in such an important position no less! As the legion commander, she had an inescapable responsibility. More importantly, her own sister had nearly become a prisoner. This matter must be thoroughly investigated; the traitor must be eradicated at all costs.

"Pass on my order: immediately launch a purge. Conduct a thorough investigation within the legion."

"No need." At this moment, a calm voice rang out. Clara looked at Shen Yue's gloomy face, smiled, and handed her a document.

"Commander Shen, I have already instructed my men to arrest those traitors. Also, my men have compiled a list of the missing fixed-position soul-guided shells; please take a look."

Shen Yue quickly took it and began to read it. The more she read, the uglier her expression became.

Five hundred! At least five hundred fixed-position soul-guided cannon shells have gone missing from the warehouse. That's enough to start a small-scale battle!

In addition, some valuable military equipment had also vanished without a trace. Looking at the report handed over by Major General Kra, Shen Yue even suspected that this major general might be in cahoots with the warehouse manager.

Otherwise, how could the other party have produced this report so quickly after the incident?

Of course, Shen Yue only suspected this, after all, this major general had only been here for less than a year, but the theft of the fixed-mount soul-guided cannon shells, according to the records, was something that happened several years ago.

Due to the passage of time, some records in this report only cover the last two years, and records from earlier periods are no longer available.

Major General Kra said with a serious expression, "Regimental Commander Shen Yue, this is a major incident! Our North Sea Regiment has actually been infiltrated. What about the other regiments? What about the entire Northeast Military Region? This matter cannot be concealed and must be reported."

"I have already relayed the message to Mingdu. From now on, you and your officers should not move around unnecessarily, especially you. Please stay in your room during this period. I will only release you after the Federation issues its verdict."

Before Shen Yue could speak, Shen Xing, who was standing to the side, became anxious, "This was done by the warehouse manager, what does it have to do with my sister?"

Klara looked at Shen Xing with a serious expression. "Your sister is the commander of the Northern Navy Legion. So many soul-guided missiles have gone missing right under her nose. You're telling me it has nothing to do with her? Who would believe that?!"

Shen Xing wanted to say something more, but Shen Yue pulled him aside. "Alright, such a big thing has happened, and as the legion commander, I have an inescapable responsibility. Major General Kra, don't worry, I won't run away. I believe the Federation won't wrong an innocent person."

As she spoke, Shen Yue gave Kela a deep look. Although there was no evidence to suggest otherwise, she felt that the current situation seemed to be orchestrated by this major general.

She didn't have any evidence; it was just her intuition that told her.

"Men, take Commander Shen Yue away." Major General Kra waved his hand. The soldiers hesitated for a moment, and then a colonel led several soldiers to escort Shen Yue away.
