Chapter 1647: Get A Hold Of It!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Godkiller-ranked fixed soul ammunition?” Old Demon Greed’s expression turned solemn upon hearing this. Shrek Academy was destroyed by this object back then. Two Godkiller-ranked fixed soul ammunitions destroyed Tang Sect and Shrek, and the entire Shrek City along with them. It plunged the lives of people into misery and sufferings with countless deaths and casualties.
The existing ammunition was also the final rank-12 fixed soul ammunition. Moreover, Tang Wulin had just made a call to Tang Sect’s research department to inquire about the details regarding the Godkiller-ranked fixed soul ammunition. Tang Sect’s product design department explicitly told him that the final ammunition was the most powerful ammunition out of all three of the Godkiller-ranked fixed soul ammunitions. It was given a terrifying name and was known as Eternal Heaven!
According to the speculation of Tang Sect’s researchers, the Godkiller-ranked fixed soul ammunition’s destructive force was almost equal to the combination of the two prior ones. In fact, it was even more destructive. It was the federation’s most terrifying secret weapon. As soon as Eternal Heaven was launched, everything within the explosion range would utterly be destroyed into flat land. Even a God may not necessarily survive the explosion.
This was the product of mankind’s technology and intelligence. It was also the embodiment of perfect destructive power. Even if Tang Sect’s Soul Circuit Defense System was completed, it could not possibly withstand this object and could only strive for a little chance for everyone to escape the explosion.
Fortunately, there was only one such item on the entire continent. Moreover, the current state of resources did not allow the ammunition to be produced anymore in any form. However, even if there was just one such ammunition, it could possibly be dropped at any moment.
Old Demon Greed raised his brows and abruptly slapped onto the table. It startled Tang Wulin.
Long Yeyue angrily said, “What are you doing?!”
It was as if there were two balls of flames burning in Old Demon Greed’s eyes as he swallowed a gulp of nonexistent saliva. His adam’s apple bobbed in his throat as he spoke in excitement, “Get a hold of it. Get a hold of this item. It’s because it is too powerful, right? Won’t it be good if it was in our hands? We can keep it hidden and it is still better than leaving it to those unreliable people.”
Tang Wulin was stunned. Old Demon Greed truly deserved his name! The first idea he had was to get a hold of the ammunition? However… wait!
Lightning suddenly flashed past Tang Wulin’s mind as he came up with an idea. Yes! If he could get a hold of this Godkiller-ranked fixed soul ammunition called Eternal Heaven for Tang Sect and Shrek, then it seemed like all the issues would be solved.
Without the Godkiller-ranked fixed soul ammunition, both Hawk Faction and Spirit Pagoda would be rendered incapable of threatening Shrek Academy. Five Great Douluos were overseeing the academy so Shrek would not be afraid even if the entire Spirit Pagoda were to come seeking trouble. It was impossible for Spirit Pagoda to openly and unscrupulously attack them. Even if they were to do so, there were way too many things that the five Limit Douluos were capable of achieving.
At the same time, the federal fleet’s pressure on Star Luo Empire and Dou Spirit Empire would be reduced greatly without the presence of Godkiller-ranked fixed soul ammunition. On the contrary, if Shrek could get a hold of the ammunition, they would not even have to hide or conceal it because the ammunition’s presence itself would pose as a deterrent force people.
How did Shrek City get blasted back then? Those people would have to consider the repercussions if the Godkiller-ranked fixed soul ammunition Eternal Heaven in Shrek’s hands landed on their heads one day. With the item in Shrek’s hands, even the federal parliament would have to think twice before doing anything. Shrek and Tang Sect’s status would certainly rise with the tide.
By then, would the federation still harbor the intention to dispatch military troops? How were they going to threaten Tang Sect?
The federation was genuinely depleting in its resources but plunder was not the only method to resolve this issue! The Tang Sect had always been engaged in an exchange of resources with the Star Luo Empire and Dou Spirit Empire through mutual trade. There were many matters that did not need to involve war. War was a simple and crude way of receiving gains and benefits in the fastest and easiest manner through plundering. However, the same goal could be achieved through trading as well! Why were people so reluctant to peacefully settle the issues?
Dove Faction had always focused on promoting trade between the three great continents. Once the Hawk Faction’s upward trend was suppressed, then this advocacy could be moved up to the agenda once again.
In a short moment, Tang Wulin had already meticulously analyzed the situation in his mind. He nodded toward Elder Long. “This seems to be a rather good idea. What do you think, Elder Long?”
Long Yeyue deeply frowned and muttered to herself. “It will be the best-case scenario if we can get a hold of the Godkiller-ranked fixed soul ammunition because this will solve the biggest issue. However, the federation is certainly guarding the Eternal Heaven under strict surveillance. War God Hall’s core strength will be used to guard it and even Spirit Pagoda may mobilize some powerhouses over to join them. In addition to some of the federation’s newest technology, it could be said that the defense had been fortified. At the same time, we cannot blatantly carry out the operation. After the battle with Spirit Pagoda, the academy’s five Limit Douluos are under the secret surveillance of the federation’s satellites. If we are to leave the academy, there is a possibility that we will be discovered. The two Limit Douluos in Tang Sect can’t act rashly either. They need to show their innocence the most if we are to engage in an operation.”
Yes! Long Yeyue was right. The matter sounded simple yet it was exceedingly difficult to perform. Consideration was needed to figure out the manpower mobilized by War God Hall, the level of defense strength, the location of the Godkiller-ranked fixed soul ammunition, the method of setting up the plan, and the high-tech defense mechanism needed. Even though the proposed method would solve the issue with ease, it was a method that did not stand a chance at all.
“Senior Greed, do you have any idea on how to do this?”
Old Demon Greed rolled his eyes. “Have you not learned anything at all? Did I waste my effort for nothing? Little Yue Yue, let me tell you. Wulin is the most outstanding little boy that we have cultivated for so many years. He is absolutely the best in all of the subjects. What do we teach? Was it not on infiltration, destruction, killing, and competence? Let the young people go and try it out.”
Long Yeyue raised her head and looked towards Tang Wulin because she had suddenly thought of a possibility that could perhaps put somebody else in danger and not Tang Wulin. Tang Wulin was different because he was blessed by the Ancient Life Tree. He could return to Shrek through the connection with the Ancient Life Tree. There was no need to worry about his safety. Even if he failed, he should still be able to safely return.
“Wulin,” Long Yeyue called out.
Tang Wulin nodded without the slightest hesitation. “I will go. We will go together as the Shrek Seven Monsters with Tang Sect’s researchers familiar with this destructive weapon. Then we will have to gather all the related information and begin the preparation work from now on.”
Long Yeyue said, “Alright, I agree. Yali, how about you?”
Yali hesitated for a moment. “Will it be too dangerous?”
Tang Wulin spoke, “Don’t worry, mother. I have the confidence that I’ll be able to retreat safely at the very least. As long as we can locate the Godkiller-ranked fixed soul ammunition, I don’t think that it will be a big issue for us to take it with us. Thus, we need intelligence. Here, I’ll depart immediately to meet with the two excellencies in Tang Sect to have a discussion with them. I would like to seek their opinion while at the same time, we can launch Tang Sect’s strength to begin investigating the whereabouts of Eternal Heaven.”
Long Yeyue gave the final word. “Alright. Be careful.”
Tang Wulin was feeling slightly fiery hot in his chest upon returning to his room. He was not in a rush to immediately depart but he tidied up his train of thoughts first.
The act of stealing the Eternal Heaven was definitely not an easy feat. There was a saying that said ‘pulling one hair would affect the entire body’. If they could think of solving the issue by stealing the fixed soul ammunition, the military would have thought of it as well. Not only was the military guarding against them, but perhaps Spirit Pagoda was also doing so. After all, the two missing Godkiller-ranked fixed soul ammunitions happened in such a risky manner. The degree of strictness in guarding the final ammunition with the most powerful explosive power was certainly unprecedented.
