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

Chapter 598 Gu Yuena is here

In the past, the Tang Clan was already extremely unpopular with federal officials.

After all, if the Tang Sect hadn't frequently provided assistance to the other two continents in terms of soul guide technology, the Federation's invasion would have been much easier.

Now that the Tang Sect is going to warn the other two continents and gift them weapons of mass destruction, it can be called "treason".

If the weapons Tang Sect delivers to the other two continents cause significant losses to the Federation army, then not only neutral officials, but even those close to Tang Sect would likely turn against them immediately.

Therefore, in Zang Xin's estimation, Tang Clan's weapons could be used, but they absolutely could not be used on a large scale.

After all, the soul guidance technology of the other two continents is not very advanced. If such powerful weapons were used on a large scale, even a fool would probably guess that they were behind it.

In the past, they had been engaging in underhanded activities rather than openly displaying their power. The Federation, also mindful of the Tang Clan's influence, adopted a policy of turning a blind eye.

But if these things were brought into the open, the meaning would be completely different.

Tang Wulin frowned slightly; this was a delicate matter to manage!

Zang Xin said, "Because headquarters was bombed, we can't spare many people to help you. Only when we get there can the retainers of the two continental branches provide you with assistance. Be careful on your journey."

"I'll give it my all." Tang Wulin nodded solemnly.

Their journey will involve facing high-ranking officials from two countries, internal power struggles within the Douling Empire and the Xingluo Empire, and possibly even the Spirit Transmission Tower and the Holy Spirit Cult. It can be said that every step they take will be difficult.

Achieving the ultimate goal is by no means easy.

After seeing off the Amorous Douluo, Tang Wulin sorted out his thoughts. This time, what he was about to do could very well change the entire continent's landscape. If he hadn't had so many past experiences, he wouldn't be qualified to do this at all.

In any case, this operation must succeed.

Their delegation to the two great empires this time was quite formidable, including the current Shrek Seven Devils, Hercules, Body Douluo Aruheng, Gale Blade Demon, Blade God Douluo Sima Jinchi, the entire Blood Dragon Squad, and the Holy Spirit Douluo His Majesty.

Although neither Long Yeyue nor the Amorous Douluo participated in the operation, for their safety, the Holy Spirit Douluo Yali will accompany them.

This is the number one healing soul master on the continent. With her around, the safety of the entire team is greatly enhanced.

It's important to know that Holy Spirit Douluo is a level 98 Title Douluo, and Tang Wulin and the others weren't entirely sure of her exact strength. However, they did know that she was in no way inferior to a Limit Douluo when facing an evil soul master.

Moreover, the Holy Spirit Douluo brought them crucial news: she had once met the Sky-Supporting Douluo. This was undoubtedly exciting news.

However, it seems that the Sky-Supporting Douluo has lost his memory, and for some reason, he is walking with Leng Yaozhu, the deputy tower master of the Spirit Pagoda, which is also a troublesome matter.

Overall, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages. At least now they know the general direction of the Sky-Supporting Douluo. It's better for him to be with the Spirit Pagoda than with those lunatics from the Holy Spirit Cult.

The Amorous Douluo had also assured the Holy Spirit Douluo that he had dispatched spies from the Tang Sect to infiltrate the perimeter of the Spirit Pagoda headquarters. They would see if they could rescue the Sky-Supporting Douluo when the time was right.

The most important thing now is to prevent this war from starting.

Besides these powerful individuals, a mecha squad from the Tang Sect's Douluo Hall also accompanied them on their journey.

This is the Tang Sect's hidden combat force. It's all top-tier equipment, with all mecha pilots being Soul Masters of the fifth ring or higher. The mecha squadron consists of 120 mechas, including 20 Black-level mechas and 100 Purple-level mechas. Their combat power is formidable.

The entire Douluo Federation consists of six mech legions, each with a full complement of 3,000 mechs. Each legion has approximately 20 black-level mechs. The logistical support for each mech legion requires 20,000 personnel and countless logistical support vehicles and equipment.

The Tang Clan's mecha squadron is comparable to a third of a mecha legion in terms of combat power.

In addition to their mecha squadron, the Tang Clan also brought fighter jets with them, all cutting-edge technological products. However, these weren't for combat; they were intended for Tang Wulin and his group to use as escape routes in case things got desperate. Their plan was quite comprehensive.

"boom--"

Just then, a loud roar rang out from afar. Even though Tang Wulin was currently living in the city center of Tianhai City, he could still hear the sound clearly.

"Beep beep beep!"

At the same time, the piercing sound of police sirens instantly echoed throughout the entire Tianhai City.

"What's going on? Has someone attacked Tianhai City?" Tang Wulin looked into the distance with suspicion. At the same time, his soul-guided communicator also received an emergency call from the Amorous Douluo.

When Tang Wulin arrived at the room of the Amorous Douluo, the others had just arrived as well.

Zang Xin said in a deep voice, "There's no time to say more. I've already contacted the Tang Clan. We must move. Just now, at the naval port, someone attacked the Federation fleet with level nine fixed-position soul-guided shells. A black-class battleship was sunk. Tianhai City will probably be in a state of panic for a while. We need to hide better."

"A level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell?" Upon hearing this name, Tang Wulin's expression changed.

He nearly lost his life in that terrifying attack when Shrek City was destroyed! He never expected that the Level 9 fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell would appear again.

Zang Xin said in a deep voice, "Come with me."

The place they were staying at originally belonged to the Tang Clan, so all their check-in records were missing. Led by Zang Xin, they followed a pipe behind the hotel and entered the underground world again.

The Shrek Seven Devils, Aruheng, Sima Jinchi, and the members of the Blood Dragon Squad were all brought down one after another. In just one hour, everyone had completed their assembly.

Just as Zang Xin had predicted, Tianhai City had already declared military control and launched a city-wide search for the perpetrators. Furthermore, news of the attack was being kept secret from outside Tianhai City, preventing it from spreading too widely.

Soon, the news came back. The military launched a full-scale search, deploying various large-scale detection devices. Within Tianhai City, all Soul Masters of the third ring or above were subject to strict military checks to confirm their identities.

Meanwhile, the Amorous Douluo brought back news that made Tang Wulin think deeply: according to the current military investigation, the attack was launched by a secret force from the Star Luo Empire.

"That's impossible," Tang Wulin said decisively.

"Since the Star Luo Empire has decided to cooperate with us, why would it escalate the conflict at this time? While the level 9 fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell is indeed extremely powerful, in reality, against a mothership battle group, at least in terms of destruction, a single shell is simply not enough to accomplish anything."

"On the contrary, it will only make the Federation hate them more. It may even bring the war forward. Moreover, transporting a level 9 fixed-position soul-guided cannon shell to the Federation is not an easy task, let alone in Tianhai City."

The Amorous Douluo Zang Xin nodded. "We all understand that the attack was almost certainly not launched by the Star Luo Empire, but the military doesn't think so. A battleship is very expensive to build, and the military must be in an uproar right now, with all fingers pointing at the Star Luo Empire."

Tang Wulin frowned. "If it's not the Star Luo Empire, then who could it be? Could it be the Holy Spirit Cult?"

Zang Xin said in a deep voice, "I also think it's highly likely to be the Holy Spirit Cult, but according to the information coming from the military, we haven't found anything related to the Holy Spirit Cult. On the contrary, all signs indicate that the attack came from the Star Luo Empire's military."

Tang Wulin frowned. "Could someone be deliberately misleading us?"

Zang Xin said in a low voice, "It's hard to judge. But the attack did result in heavy losses. The only reliable information we have so far is that the battleship was undergoing maintenance at the time, and there were only basic maintenance personnel on board."

"Therefore, the casualties were relatively small, with about two hundred people dying. If a full complement of personnel had been in place, it would have exceeded three thousand."

A glint flashed in Tang Wulin's eyes. "Could this have been staged by the military themselves?"

Zang Xin shook his head and said, "No, it won't happen. The cost is too high. This Black-class battleship is indeed controlled by the hawks. The cost of a battleship is extremely high, and the hawks are absolutely unwilling to bear such a loss."

"Therefore, the attacker must be someone else, and only those people could launch an attack using level nine fixed-position soul-guided cannon shells."

Tang Wulin thought for a moment and said, "Let's wait and see. What if this is a deliberate attempt to provoke conflict and hasten the start of war?"

"Then there must be someone behind this, fanning the flames and trying to make the attack escalate and create momentum in the media. Have you contacted Xingluo and Douling? We need to confirm first that it wasn't them who launched the attack."

Long Yuxue said from the side, "It's hard to say. Even if the Star Luo Empire and the Dou Ling Empire launched the attack, I'm afraid they won't admit it."

For a moment, the basement fell silent.

Yuan Enhui asked, "Your Majesty, will this matter affect our journey to the Douling Empire?"

Zang Xin nodded. "It will definitely have an impact. The sea area is completely blocked. Although our ships can still go out to sea, the chances of being discovered have increased significantly. We'll probably have to wait."

"However, if we keep waiting here while the Federation accelerates the war, it might be too late. Unless..."

Tang Wulin narrowed his eyes slightly. "Unless we can prove in a short time that this attack has nothing to do with the Star Luo and Dou Ling kingdoms, divert the public's and the Federation's attention, and prove that this is a frame-up."

Le Zhengyu frowned and said, "Our own identities are already very sensitive; we can't even conduct an investigation, so how could we possibly do it?"

Tang Wulin paced back and forth in the room, while the Amorous Douluo Zang Xin frowned deeply. Everything had been planned perfectly, but this sudden change might disrupt the plan and prevent the outbreak of war.

After a long while, Tang Wulin suddenly raised his head and looked at Long Yuxue, "Our identities cannot be exposed, but what if we act in the name of our Blood God Legion? The Blood God Legion is a secret legion, known only to the Federation's high command."

"However, the Blood God Legion is also a federal army, and even has a higher rank than the equivalent. Now we have no choice but to take the risk. Yu Xue, contact the legion and ask them to cooperate with us. I'll speak with His Majesty Douluo Mingjing."

"Okay." Long Yuxue immediately agreed without hesitation and went upstairs to make a soul communication call, as there was no signal in the basement.

Zang Xin looked at Tang Wulin, "Wulin, don't be impulsive!"

Tang Wulin smiled slightly and said, "Now we can only take the risk. Otherwise, such drastic changes would render all our efforts futile. We absolutely cannot let the war start prematurely. Aren't they trying to fan the flames?"

"Then let's divert their attention. Compared to Xingluo and Douling, the people hate the Holy Spirit Cult evil soul masters the most for launching multiple terrorist attacks."

"Boss, do you have evidence?" Xie Xie asked.

Tang Wulin shrugged. "Regardless of who did this, from now on, it's considered the Holy Spirit Cult's doing. The evidence will come, no matter where it comes from, whether it's true or false. Framing isn't something only they do."

……

At the same time, inside the Soul Guidance Train Station in Tianhai City.

A man and a woman also came out of the Soul Guidance Train.

Looking at the military soldiers conducting the inspection, the man curled his lip and simply took out an identification token from his pocket and showed it to the soldier. Then he and the woman were let through by the soldiers without even a basic check.

Qian Gu Zhangting turned around and said to the woman beside him, "Nana, you must have heard that loud bang just now. It sounded like a fixed-mounted soul-guided cannon exploding. Something seems wrong with Tianhai City right now. Should we go back?"

Gu Yuena wore a white dress today, which, combined with her silver hair and purple eyes, made her look aloof and stunning.

After hearing Qian Gu Zhangting's words, Gu Yuena said calmly, "Since we're already here, we should at least check the situation first."

Qian Gu Zhangting smiled and said, "Why did you come to Tianhai City? Do you really want to travel to the Star Luo Continent? After all, that's not our place, and there are certain dangers once the war starts."

"I think it's better if we stay at headquarters. Your spiritual cultivation is almost at the Spirit Domain Realm, right? Once you break through, could you give me a chance?"

Gu Yuena glanced at him. "We'll talk about it later. As for the Star Luo Continent, I haven't decided yet. I just want to go to Tianhai City to take a look. I heard that three major fleets are concentrated there now. It must be a very spectacular sight."

As she spoke, Gu Yuena looked toward the city center of Tianhai City, a hint of worry flashing in her eyes.

"I wonder how Fusheng is doing."
