Chapter 828: Infiltrating The Warehouse (1/2)

As such, as Tang Wulin burrowed through the earth, none of the Northsea Legion's detection devices were able to discover him. On the seismographs, no abnormal tremors were being detected as one man's activity was nowhere near enough to create tremors that would set off an alarm.
Thus, Tang Wulin would rest for a while when he grew tired, and continue to dig after he recovered. Even he had lost track of how long he'd been digging for.
During the process, he returned to the surface to rest on two occasions. He had also returned to the ocean to kill a sea soul beast, then chopped it up into sas.h.i.+mi using his golden dragon claws as he was unbearably hungry. After recovering some energy, he returned to the underground world to continue his excavation.
”Ding!” A crisp clang suddenly rang out, and Tang Wulin immediately stopped what he was doing. The fine hairs on the back of his neck stood up on end, and he hurriedly withdrew his aura.
What was that?
He didn't dare to summon his Bluesilver Emperor soul rings to illuminate the tunnel, so he could only use his blood essence soul rings instead. Under the illumination of the golden soul rings, he was surprised to discover that a metal plate had stopped him in his tracks.
Did this mean he'd already entered the base or was this a metal barrier that separated the base from the outside world?
Tang Wulin gently pressed his palm flat against the metal board to sense the nature of its existence. He was already close to becoming a Saint Blacksmith, so he was extremely familiar with metals.
He could generally ascertain the special properties of a type of metal simply by touching it and using his spiritual power to detect it.
This was what he was doing right now, and he was able to quickly discern that this was a type of metal that wasn't exactly uncommon, but was very resolute; it was a type of t.i.tanium alloy.
There were no energy fluctuations emanating from it, which meant that this was just a plain alloy, rather than a large soul tool.
This discovery came as quite a relief to Tang Wulin. If this were a soul tool, then he would be in some trouble. At the very least, he'd have to keep digging down until he could go around this metal wall. However, if it were just a normal metal wall, then that indicated that he was situated right outside the Northsea Legion base. Thus, he'd be able to enter this base after breaking through this wall.
Tang Wulin's heart rate accelerated slightly, and after a moment of contemplation, he extended a single finger. A dark golden blade of light slowly emerged from his fingertip, then pierced soundlessly into the metal wall before him.
No t.i.tanium alloy could stand up against his Golden Dragon Dreadclaws. After piercing his claw into the metal, Tang Wulin slowly rotated his finger, quickly drilling out a small hole.
All of a sudden, his finger plunged through to the other side without any further resistance, and he knew that he'd drilled through the wall.
He silently withdrew his finger, and he was stunned to discover that this metal wall was over two feet thick.
Such a thick t.i.tanium alloy wall naturally had ultrpowerful defensive properties, but it would've also been extraordinarily expensive to construct. The Northsea Legion certainly wasn't sparing any expenses!
A faint beam of light pa.s.sed through the small hole that he'd just drilled out with his finger, and for some reason, he was almost moved to tears by the sight of that ray of light. He had finally seen light that belonged to the human world again! Ever since he'd set foot on the demonic island, he'd been living an inhuman life, and he was finally back in human civilizations.
This was only a small hole, but that was all that was required for Tang Wulin's Spirit Abyss realm spiritual power to enter the legion base.
Much to his surprise and elation, he had stumbled upon a ma.s.sive underground warehouse. The warehouse was filled with all types of soul weapons, most of which were soul missiles. It was undoubtedly the case that Tang Wulin had unintentionally stumbled upon the Northsea Legion's most important storage warehouse, and it was no wonder that such a thick t.i.tanium alloy wall had been erected to protect this place.
The good thing about this warehouse was that there was no one in it, but at the same time, such an important warehouse had to have extremely st.u.r.dy defenses on the outside.
What should he do?
Regardless of what he did next, he had to enter the warehouse first. Even if worst came to worst, he could just go back the same way he'd come.He had to see if there was some way to make it out of this warehouse first.
