A hint of despair appeared on Xu Xiaoyan's face. ”I feel so bad! What do we do, Captain?” Her voice was beginning to choke up, as if she were on the verge of bursting into tears.

”Don't worry, everything will be fine. The worst-case scenario is that we'll fail this mission and be forced to accept our punishment. We haven't done anything, so the Northsea Legion won't hurt us even though we've been detained. After all, the academy knows we're here, and we haven't attacked anyone or stolen anything, so we haven't committed any crimes.”

The major smiled, and said, ”You've made the right decision. Take them away and detain them. Oh, by the way, I graduated from Imperial Sun Moon Soul Engineer Academy, as did virtually all of the high-ranking officials of the Northsea Legion, so we've always abhorred Shrek Academy. You didn't think that the legion situated in the northeastern region would have such strong ties with the Imperial Sun Moon Soul Engineer Academy in the west, did you? Do you know about the relations.h.i.+p between these two academies?”

How could they not know? Back in the day, Tang Wulin had once led his friends to challenge the Imperial Sun Moon Soul Engineer Academy.

Tang Wulin lowered his head in a resigned and indignant manner. Not only had they walked into a trap, the people that had sprung the trap had a personal vendetta against them as well!

The major continued, ”Stop putting on that fake resigned display. I really hate your Shrek Academy, but I can tell you're all definitely inner court disciples, so you must all be one-word battle armor masters to go along with your five-ring cultivation ranks. Don't even think about getting away; I won't give you any chances. No matter what kind of pitiable display you put on, I won't take pity on you. Put some spirit-sealing helmets on them as well; there's no way they'll be able to escape then. With those helmets on, you won't even be able to think, so just take a good nap for about 10 days here, and I promise you that I'll definitely release you at the conclusion of the 10 days. Perhaps you'll be quite hungry by then, but you definitely won't die.”

Tang Wulin abruptly raised his head at the sight of the helmets the soldiers were carrying toward them, and a panicked expression appeared on his face. ”No, you, you can't do this! You... Argh!”

As soon as the helmet was fitted onto his head, a powerful magnetic field completely scattered his cognitive functions, and he slumped straight to the ground.

Everyone else had had their soul power sealed, so there was no way for them to resist. As such, they were also fitted with the same helmets and fell unconscious as well.

The major shrugged. ”This is how things should be. Students of Shrek Academy are all extremely cunning, so I can't give them even the slightest opportunity. These spirit-sealing helmets will completely seal off your minds, so just sleep like good boys and girls. I wonder if your academy will actually expel you after this. Don't blame me for all of this; if there's anyone you should blame, it's Shrek Academy for being too heartless with its students. Take them to the detention center and release them in 10 days.”

14 soldiers immediately rushed forward at once, splitting up into groups of two before quickly carrying away Tang Wulin and his friends.

The major stroked his chin with a contemplative look on his face, and said, ”Get the special operation unit to search the area around the base and use the radars to see if they have any allies lurking outside the base. In particular, make sure to detect for the presences of mechas.”

”Yes, Major.”

The major was always renowned as a very methodical and thorough man, so he certainly wasn't going to allow any oversights.

The dark detention chambers were the places that soldiers were most afraid of.

There was nothing inside the rooms, and each room was only two feet tall, making it impossible for one to sit up, and the rooms were completely devoid of light. There were only small openings through which food could be delivered, and the most terrifying thing about these detention chambers was that there was absolutely nothing in them.

For normal people, being able to last seven days in here was already an extremely remarkable feat as being enclosed in dark and claustrophobic s.p.a.ces for long periods of time will inevitably lead to mental breakdowns.

Thus, Tang Wulin and his friends lay in silence in a detention chamber with handcuffs around their wrists and helmets on their heads.

After a long while, a pair of hands slowly rose up within the dark s.p.a.ce before gently grabbing onto a helmet, then slowly wrenching it apart.

That's right, the helmet was literally being wrenched apart. Normally, these helmets couldn't be opened without their corresponding keys and electronic pa.s.scodes, but this helmet was being torn apart by a pair of bare hands

Due to the restriction from the pair of handcuffs, the process wasn't very smooth, but in the next instant, the pair of hands jerked violently, and the handcuffs were instantly shattered, while the helmet was also completely prised apart in the process.
