Chapter 476 The Tide Within the Temple of War
"By then, the insect and the martial soul will be completely fused. Even if it can be removed, the person whose soul is removed will be crippled."
"Of course, this is just speculation. After all, the highest level of Ouke that we have captured so far is only Soul Emperor."
Shi Mengshan nodded, then suddenly asked, "But judging from your attitudes, Vice Hall Masters, it seems you don't like these creatures? They must have some drawbacks, right?"
"Of course." Guan Yue nodded. "Although these creatures do offer ordinary people the possibility of becoming Soul Masters, their uncontrollable factors are too high. Where do they come from? How did they get here? Could there be some kind of conspiracy involved?"
"There are too many uncontrollable factors, and almost everyone who transforms into an Ox is inclined to do evil. It would be impossible without the influence of those insects."
"This alone shows they're definitely not benevolent. We still know far too little about the Oxus, so it's always good to be cautious. Besides, do you really think it's a good thing that ordinary people can cultivate?"
Shi Mengshan asked doubtfully, "Having the possibility of cultivation, isn't that a good thing?"
Guan Yue shook her head. "Meng Shan, the spiritual energy of our Douluo Continent is ultimately limited. If everyone has the potential to cultivate, the spiritual energy of the world will be completely absorbed by them."
"Our Douluo Continent's resources were already beginning to run out. If ordinary people get involved, the depletion of the world's vital energy will only accelerate."
"At that time, before we can successfully explore outer space, Douluo Continent may face a situation of depletion of its vitality."
"I see." Shi Mengshan said thoughtfully.
Guan Yue continued, "Furthermore, the Palace Master and I discovered that those Oukes seem to be under some kind of restriction. We once had a Title Douluo of the Mental Realm examine that Soul Emperor-level Ouke in the Federation."
"We wanted to enter his spiritual sea to see how he became an Ouker. But before we could find out, the Ouker suddenly died."
"We've also examined some ordinary Oukers, but we found that their memories are perfectly normal, as if they suddenly became Oukers. The difference between the two alone is enough to tell us that there must be something wrong behind this."
"After the Federation analyzed the Ouker incidents in various places, we found that Ouker incidents occurred frequently in Tiandou City, so I speculate that this place may very well be their stronghold."
"And in fact, we did discover some clues, didn't we?"
"That's right." Shi Mengshan nodded. "Within two months, several Oukes also caused trouble in different regions. Because we deliberately ignored them, those Oukes were able to escape successfully."
"Duanmu Yan and I were each responsible for monitoring those who had turned into Oukes. We discovered that they seemed to still retain their senses. Their daily routines were also very regular, just like ordinary people."
"These people don't know each other on the surface, but they always gather at a villa on the outskirts of Tiandou City on the afternoon of the first of every month."
"Because we were afraid of alerting them, we didn't get too close. After two months of observation, we discovered that in addition to them, many other people would also gather there. Those people had also been registered as missing persons."
"So, Duanmu and I deduced that that's probably their base. Judging by the time, it's today. Duanmu just reported to me that the person he was monitoring has already set off."
"Vice Hall Master, should we attack now, or wait until the first of next month?"
Guan Yue waved his hand and said, "Delay will only lead to complications, so of course we should strike now. Tell your team to hold back for now and wait for me to arrive before making a move."
"Yes." Shi Mengshan nodded.
Neither of them intended to seek assistance from the Heavenly Dou City garrison. Firstly, too many people would be unsettling and could easily alert the enemy. Secondly, they were confident in their own abilities.
Guan Yue is a Limit Douluo, and Shi Mengshan is a level 95 Super Douluo. Although the War God Hall team she brought only has five members, each of them is a seven-ring Soul Saint and a two-word Battle Armor Master.
With this lineup, even if there are many of those Ogres, they are confident that they can defeat them.
After all, the strongest Oukeser at present is only at the Soul Emperor level. Guan Yue chose to take action personally to prevent Oukeser from having any hidden cards.
But it doesn't matter. No matter how strong your trump card is, can it really overpower a Limit Douluo like him?
……
A villa area in the western suburbs of Tiandou City.
Because of its proximity to the mountains, beautiful scenery, and a crystal-clear lake nearby, this area has been developed into an affluent neighborhood.
Duanmu Yan watched as the person she was monitoring entered the villa area, and said to the War God Temple badge in her hand, "The target has entered the villa area. What's the situation?"
"The situation is normal, and our surveillance personnel have already entered the villa area."
Soon, a series of reports came through the communicator.
Duanmu Yan nodded and said, "Then, everyone, gather here and wait for the Vice Hall Master and Senior Shi Mengshan to arrive."
"learn."
Soon, the five members of the team quickly assembled.
"Duanmu, what did the Vice Hall Masters say?" The one who asked was Shenwei. After graduating from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, he successfully joined the War God Hall on Ao Hongchen's recommendation.
Within the Temple of War Gods, strength reigns supreme. After years of cultivation, although he is only a two-word Battle Armor Master, he is already a prospective War God within the Temple of War Gods.
His third soul spirit was undoubtedly the Thunderous Hell Vine. With the help of this third soul spirit, the bloodline in his body finally began to merge, but it was still just a little bit short.
To truly master it, he'll probably need to engage in constant battles. That's what sets him apart from Lu Fa and the others.
Duanmu Yan said, "The Vice Hall Master told us to hold back for now and wait for him to arrive before we make a move together."
"Hmm." Kamui nodded, then didn't say anything more, just went to the side and closed his eyes to wait.
The other three witnesses also closed their eyes and waited.
This place is just on the outskirts of Tiandou City, not too far from the city center, so Guan Yue and Shi Mengshan appeared here in just half an hour.
"Vice Hall Master." The five immediately saluted Guan Yue.
"Yes, we're on a mission now, no need for all this formalities." Guan Yue was a gentle person by nature and didn't really care much about such etiquette, so she simply waved her hand.
"Yes," the five replied.
Looking at the five young people before her, Guan Yue couldn't help but nod in approval. Although they were still young, they had already been marked as key trainees in the records of the Temple of War. They were all future War God candidates.
Among them, Shenwei Kamui needs no introduction, possessing a powerful martial spirit and a powerful bloodline. Through his and the Palace Master's secret observation, it was discovered that Shenwei's bloodline was an extremely powerful dragon bloodline.
He is no less powerful than the Hell Demon Dragon King or the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King. As long as he can grow normally, becoming a Super Douluo is not a problem, and becoming a Limit Douluo is also a possibility. He is one of the key talents to be cultivated in the future.
The same applies to Duanmu Yan. In terms of bloodline, his Fire Qilin Martial Soul might be slightly inferior to Shenwei's. However, not long ago, the First War God Ao Rui personally led him to the seventeenth floor of the War God Temple to communicate with the Fire Li Clan who lived there.
Guan Yue didn't know what they talked about. But in the end, Huo Tian, the patriarch of the Huo Li tribe, was willing to follow Duanmu Yan and merge with his martial spirit, causing his martial spirit to evolve.
It was precisely because of this incident that Duanmu Yan possessed the potential to catch up with Shenwei and stand shoulder to shoulder with him.
Guan Yue naturally knew something about the Fire Li tribe living on the seventeenth floor of the Temple of War; they were not creatures of this continent.
The Fire Li tribe are creatures from another world, but were sent here due to a great catastrophe. Because of the harsh living conditions, they made a pact with the Federation and live in the sea of lava beneath the Temple of War.
The details are extremely complicated, but one thing Guan Yue is certain of.
That means the Fire Li Clan is very strong. Although the entire clan only has a few hundred members, the weaker ones can rival Soul Saints among humans. The powerful Fire Li Clan members can even contend with Title Douluos.
The leader of the Huo Li tribe, Huo Tian, is no less powerful than a Limit Douluo, and he also possesses a mysterious seven-colored flame that is incredibly terrifying.
Having gained Huo Tian's active following, Duanmu Yan is also a potential powerhouse.
The other three, Ma Aiguo, Ma Huateng, and Ma Yun, are not quite as good, but they are also extremely talented and will be the backbone of the future War God Temple.
At this moment, Guan Yue suddenly noticed the monocle placed on the chests of the five people. Her gaze lingered for a moment, and she muttered to herself, "Is this a trend among young people nowadays? It seems that quite a few people in the Temple of War also like to wear monocles like this."
Of course, Guan Yue was just curious and didn't think much of it. He only noticed it because many War Gods in the Temple of War, such as the First and Second War Gods, had worn monocles.
"I recall that quite a few people in the Temple of War suggested developing monocles specifically for communication and detection."
Guan Yue found this trend among young people a bit hard to understand, but as long as it didn't affect the mission, he wouldn't interfere.
"Fortunately, I'm not the only one who's an old-fashioned person." Guan Yue glanced at Shi Mengshan beside her, who didn't have a monocle.
"Vice Hall Master, everyone has arrived. Please give your instructions on how to proceed," Shi Mengshan asked Guan Yue.
Guan Yue snapped out of her reverie, put her hands behind her back, and calmly asked, "After those Oukes entered the villa, did they make any unusual moves?"
Kamui said, "No, they're having a party right now. Based on my observations from the last two times, they should stay here until around 10 p.m. before leaving."
Guan Yue continued, "Are there any other unrelated people here?"
Duanmu Yan said, "There shouldn't be any more. Although this is an affluent area, very few people actually live here. Before the Vice Hall Master arrived, I had already informed the residents of the villas by phone, on behalf of the Federal Guard, that they should temporarily leave."
"Half an hour has passed now. If they listen to advice, they should know when to leave."
Guan Yue nodded slightly. They had already given their advice, and if anyone was really going to stay here and do something reckless, that would be their problem.
It's hard to reason with a damned devil.
"How many people went inside in total?"
"As of now, there are only a little over three hundred people. Although the security force reported a population of nearly five hundred, there will always be some discrepancies in reality. Of course, it's also possible that those who haven't come yet haven't become Oxus."
"it is good."
Guan Yue turned her gaze to the villa that Duanmu Yan and the others were monitoring, and said calmly, "Then, this time the five of you will take the lead. Meng Shan and I will follow behind to provide support. Unless something unexpected happens, we will not intervene."
Although there are supposedly more than 300 Oukes in the villa, so far, the Oukes have not actually shown much strength.
Even those Oukes who caused trouble in Heaven Dou City were mostly only comparable to Soul Masters of the first or second ring.
After all, most of them were transformed from ordinary people without soul power. Even if they really became Oukers, they would still need time to grow.
Duanmu Yan and his group of five possessed the strength of Soul Saints, and with their two-word battle armor, even if the more than three hundred people in the villa were all Oukes, they would absolutely be no match for them.
At this moment, Guan Yue suddenly said, "If it is confirmed that the more than 300 people in the villa are all Oukers, then I request that you capture them as much as possible without harming their lives."
"I will record this mission in the archives of the Temple of War. If you do well, I will give you a major commendation."
If everyone inside the villa is indeed an Oukes, then Duanmu Yan and her group of five will have to face at least three hundred Soul Masters of the first and second rings.
And capturing them all without harming their lives is no easy task.
They need to be careful to control their strength so as not to go too far, and they also need to guard against the escape of the Oukser. After all, others may not be able to defeat them, but if they scatter and escape, that would definitely be a troublesome matter.
This can be considered a small test that Guan Yue is giving to these young people.
He and Shi Mengshan were there as a backup plan. With the two of them around, even if things changed, he was confident that those Oukes wouldn't be able to escape.
In that case, Guan Yue wouldn't mind taking this opportunity to hone these younger generations.
