Ye Xinglan pursed her thin lips, "We've only just arrived at the Northsea Legion and already targeted like this. If the students from Shrek Academy were to join, it's hard to tell how much worse it could be!"
Next to her, Xu Lizhi chimed in, "Yeah, and especially that major. He doesn't seem like a reasonable person at all!"
Wu Siduo said coldly, "Regardless, the fact that we were able to escape from the Northsea Legion is good news. However, we still need to be cautious, in case they catch up with us..."
Tang Wulin shook his head, "That's unlikely. If they had dispatched a soul airplane to pursue us, we would have heard something by now!"
Yue Zhengyu stretched lazily, "I think so too, I'm going to sleep for a while..."
Suddenly, the entire soul airplane experienced a huge roll, with all those inside shaking...
Seated in the pilot's seat, Xie Xie, with an unsightly expression, said, "Wulin, Zhengyu, stop chatting and come over to control this now! We're going to crash otherwise!"
Tang Wulin and Yue Zhengyu immediately snapped back to reality and quickly took their seats at the co-pilot's controls, looking at the multitude of buttons on the dashboard, and asked blankly, "Xie Xie, what should we do?"
Xie Xie urgently instructed, "You just use the four buttons on the far left and the back to control the soul airplane's stability and speed! Leave the rest to me!"
After hearing this, Tang Wulin and Yue Zhengyu exchanged glances and started trying to operate the controls...
"Buzz..."
In a flash, the exhaust port at the rear end of the soul airplane forcefully ejected a purple-blue flame, directly boosting the speed several times over...
Not only that, but it also started to roll 360 degrees and looked just like it was about to crash...
Xie Xie, feeling dizzy in the head, chastised, "That's the accelerator, Zhengyu, can you be a bit more reliable?"
"And Wulin, are you intentionally trying to make us all land in the river? You're supposed to maintain balance, not show off acrobatics!"
It was his first time feeling like he had two pigs for teammates...
Finally, after enduring for about ten minutes, Tang Wulin and Yue Zhengyu could finally control the soul airplane steadily...
The latter couldn't resist showing off, "This soul airplane isn't so difficult after all, I've got the hang of it in just ten minutes! I really don't know why Xie Xie took so long to learn it!"
Xie Xie's face darkened, "Do you have any shame? I'm controlling over a dozen buttons on this dashboard by myself, even monitoring the direction and altitude!!"
"And you only had to manage four buttons!!"
If controlling a soul airplane was really that easy, why would he have spent so many days earnestly learning?
Tang Wulin didn't bicker with them but turned to Yuanen Yehui at the back and said, "Ye Hui, could you please open up the map and confirm our route?"
Yuanen Yehui nodded, took a map out of the soul tool, spread it out, and analyzed seriously, "Everyone, based on our current position, we should be here. The target island is to the far west, roughly a few days' journey!"
"However... in a few hours, we will be crossing the area where many sea soul beasts dwell. Although we are thousands of kilometers above the sea, there's a chance that powerful sea soul beasts might launch an attack, so we need to be careful!"
Wu Siduo's brows slightly furrowed, "A few days of flight... But can this soul airplane last that long?"
She certainly did not want to become the dinner of a sea soul beast!
Upon hearing her, Xie Xie's lips slightly curved upwards, "Don't worry, the soul airplane nowadays can convert solar and wind energy into electrical energy, and store it. If we maintain normal operations, it should definitely last!"
Wu Siduo pursed her lips, "Is that so? Well, that's good then!"
...
Northsea Legion!
The leading major's face was incredibly grim, and he seemed hardly able to look directly at the few officers standing before him!
Indeed, these officers were the highest-ranking commanders of the entire Northsea Legion!
The leading colonel said furiously, "To actually let a prisoner use a soul airplane to escape, what kind of major are you?"
The major bowed his head, clenching his teeth and said, "Sorry, it was my oversight!!"
It was clear that the prisoners were supposed to be restrained with Soul Suppressing Handcuffs. How could something like this have happened??
This wasn't just an embarrassment for him; it was a blow to the entire Northsea Legion's reputation!
The lieutenant colonel at his side tried to appease everyone, "Let's all calm down! It's not entirely his fault. After all, the fact that the prisoner managed to crack the fingerprint lock and use a soul airplane implies that there might be an inside informant within our Northsea Legion!"
Upon hearing this, the colonel and the other officers' expressions eased somewhat...
The former demanded coldly, "Now, immediately pull up all the surveillance footage from the Northsea Legion; we must confirm the identity of the person who used the soul airplane to escape!"
The next second, the technicians seated at the computers promptly brought up the surveillance images on the large screen, filtering out any irrelevant information...
At last, they froze on the images of Tang Wulin and the others boarding the soul airplane...
Seeing this scene, the major's pupils contracted sharply, "This is... those Shrek Academy students? I didn't expect them to be the ones who escaped from the confinement room!"
How on earth did they manage that??
Could it be that the Soul Suppressing Handcuffs and Spiritual Confinement Helmets we put on them were just for show?
The colonel demanded icily, "Major, please explain this to me!"
The major took a deep breath and recounted, "Indeed, I had ordered the soldiers to put the Soul Suppressing Handcuffs and Spiritual Confinement Helmets on them, and they were locked in the confinement room!"
"As for how they managed to escape, I have no idea!"
Hearing this, the colonel seemed even more irate, "Hmph! It seems to me you no longer wish to be a major!"
From this incident, it was also evident that the security at the Northsea Legion wasn't as tight as imagined!
Even a few students at the Soul Emperor level were able to easily break free from restraint!
The lieutenant colonel next to him narrowed his eyes and said, "Now that we've confirmed that the individuals who fled from the Northsea Legion are students of Shrek Academy, there's no need to keep pursuing this matter."
Of course, if they had been real criminals escaping, they would have deployed troops to capture and bring them back!
Regretfully, the colonel let out a deep sigh, "First, let's report to the elders of Shrek Academy. We have to be careful in case these students encounter trouble in the sea region and the responsibility falls on our Northsea Legion!"
Following that, communication was established with the elders of Shrek Academy...
The one who answered was Cai Yue'er, who asked with confusion, "Is there something you need, officers of the Northsea Legion?"
Those children should already be imprisoned by the Northsea Legion; reaching out to her now seemed to serve no real purpose!
Then, the colonel said unflinchingly, "Elder Cai, we are specifically notifying you that your academy's students have successfully commandeered a soul airplane from the Northsea Legion and are approaching that small island!"
