Chapter 848: Shen Xing’s Nightmare
Yue Zhengyu, Xu Lizhi, Xie Xie, Yuanen Yehui, Ye Xinglan, Xu Xiaoyan were all relieved . Was it finally time to go? It had taken two whole years! They had had enough of this place .
Tang Wulin looked at the group of old demons before him . For some reason, he saw loneliness in their eyes .
"Seniors, are all of you stuck on the Demon Island forever? Is there no other way for you to leave this place? Or is there any way that I can help you?"
Old Demon Greed shook his head while Old Demon Blight chuckled . "I appreciate your kindness . Our existence is nothing but energy . Without the protection of the destruction and life energy, we'll end up as scattered souls immediately when we leave this place . Even though we're so lonely here, the circumstances allow us to have long lives . There are both pros and cons . In the future, if you're willing, you can come back and visit us . Of course, you can always return to relive your experiences here if that is what you desire . . . "
"Captain, let's go quickly!" Yue Zhengyu pulled at Tang Wulin .
The corners of Tang Wulin's lips twitched, then he suddenly shouted . "Shrek Seven Monsters, stand at attention . "
The remaining six immediate stood upright alongside him . Tang Wulin spoke solemnly, "Salute!"
…
"Oh!" Shen Xing sat up from the bed, panting heavily .
She had already lost count of how many times nightmares awakened her in the past few months .
The dream felt so real . She was only performing her routine inspection at the fixed soul ammunition warehouse when she encountered a situation that was completely beyond her expectations . The man's face was crystal clear in her mind . He held her as a hostage to threaten her sister . She was brought up to the Skywing F-17, and in the end, that bastard ejected her straight out of the aircraft .
The nightmare ended with the intense weightlessness one felt when falling from high altitude . Shen Xing still clearly remembered that she lost control of her bladder the first time when she had awakened from this nightmare . That was truly unacceptable .
The perpetrator was real . He was once detained by the army corps with his companions, and afterward, they escaped by actually hijacking an aircraft . Even so, these incidents were all completely unrelated to her! She did not have any contact with him at that point, so why was she having the nightmare .
It was even stranger that her sister was having the same nightmare, identical to Shen Xing's .
'Damn it, damn it! Get the hell out of my dreams!'
Feeling jittery, Shen Xing gave her mattress two strong punches .
She turned over and got dressed in her military uniform before walking over to the mirror . Dark circles had formed under eyes due to poor sleep . Her training during the day was already tough, so it had become a habit for her to sleep as soon as she had returned . These days, even sleep had become so arduous for her . She had no choice but to spend more time meditating .
Shen Xing made the decision to get some fresh air outside . She would meditate after she came back, and at least she would not be dreaming during meditation .
If the bastard knew what was good for him, he would never come back from the Demon Island . If he did, she would certainly teach him a good lesson, in exchange for all the nightmares .
Shen Xing walked out of the dormitory as she strolled around the base aimlessly . Even though she did not have a high rank, but she had an extremely important inspectorate duty . The patrolling soldiers would immediately salute her when she passed by .
The Northsea Army Corps was located near the ocean . The sea breeze made the night feel cool and refreshing, and Shen Xing felt slightly less worried .
"Huh? How did I come here?" She was surprised to find that she had walked all the way to the warehouse from her dreams without even noticing .
It was the actual spot that was used to store fixed soul ammunitions .
Shen Xing frowned . "Darn it . " She turned around and was about to leave when she paused .
'It would be better to take a look . Perhaps it'll be a weight off my shoulders if I were to take a look at the location of my dream . Otherwise, it's truly agonizing not being able to distinguish between dream and reality . '
At that point, she walked into the warehouse of her own accord . She used her high-ranking access pass to use the elevator and quickly arrived underground .
The soldiers on duty saluted her in succession upon seeing her . They gazed at her respectfully all the way to the warehouse .
"Staff officer Shen, are you still inspecting at this time?" the major in charge of warehouse management smiled as he asked her .
Even though Shen Xing was beautiful, he dared not have any improper thoughts for she was the high-ranking regimental commander's sister . It was said that she would soon be recalled to headquarters for another assignment .
"Hmm, I'm here to take a look . " Shen Xing nodded in all apparent seriousness .
"Sure . Come, open the door . "
Such an important warehouse used for fixed soul ammunition required three keys and a specific passcode to unlock the door . Two lieutenants holding the keys were called upon by the major, in addition to the passcode and Shen Xing's iris scan before the door slowly opened .
A warehouse storing so much fixed soul ammunition naturally possessed an atmosphere that felt quite ominous . Although there was no hyper strategic type fixed soul ammunitions here, but the value of the ones they had was enormous . It was one of the most important warehouses of the Northsea Army Corps .
She walked into the warehouse and felt the familiarity of her dream arise spontaneously . Shen Xing's feeling of familiarity with this place was especially intense because she had been dreaming about it every night .
She Xing looked at the ammammunition her surroundings absentmindedly upon walking inside the warehouse . All of a sudden, she stopped in her tracks . "There should be four rank-5 fixed soul ammunitions here . Why are they missing? Show me the warehouse records . "
The spot where she stopped happened to be a shelf with a tidy arrangement of ammunition on it . However, there should have been an additional four fixed soul ammunitions, according to Shen Xing's memories . She could clearly remember that the bastard who had held her hostage had once hidden here for a moment in her dreams . Thus, she had an especially vivid memory of this .
However, she immediately regretted asking just before she had done so, seeing that it was just a dream! She was actually inquiring in real life about her nightmares . This was truly…
Even so, there was no answer forthcoming . Shen Xing turned around to look at the major in charge of the warehouse and saw shock flash past his eyes .
'How can she know that there should be four rank-5 fixed soul ammunitions over here? This is impossible! It has been a few months since her last visit here . '
The classifications and ranks of fixed soul ammunitions followed extremely strict storage rules, so its positions could not be changed simply unless it was used for service .
"I'm talking to you . " the highly intelligent Shen Xing could immediately sense a problem . She spoke quickly while her voice was turning stern .
The major immediately smiled apologetically and said, "The ammunitions were used for service . Please wait for a moment for the warehouse records . I'll get them it now . "
Shen Xing commanded, "Bring it to me stat . "
The major hastily nodded repeatedly . "Please hold on . I'm going now . " He turned around as he was speaking and exchanged glances with his two lieutenants .
The three of them walked toward the outside in quick strides .
"Why is everyone leaving? One person will do," Shen Xing shouted .
"Yes . " The major stopped walking . When he turned around again, there was a flash of light . Shen Xing shuddered as an intense numbness instantly spread through every part of her body . She slowly slumped down to the floor .
Her eyes widened as she could not believe that the situation before her was really happening .
A person capable of becoming a fixed soul ammunition warehouse supervisor would have had to pass through strict vetting, but there was no doubt that something had gone wrong with this man and his two lieutenants .
The major's expression turned slightly ferocious as he walked to Shen Xing and pulled off the communicator on her chest . He did it so forcefully such that he tore off the top two buttons on Shen Xing's military uniform .
As the buttons hit the ground, the snowy white complexion of her chest was revealed, but her entire body was so numb that she could not even shout .
The warehouse supervisor was breathing rapidly . "Why, why do you have to remember so clearly? Even I can't possibly remember how many ammunitions there are on each shelf . "
Shen Xing could not speak, but only glared at him with a fierce gaze .
The warehouse supervisor spoke with a disappointed expression, "I didn't wish for this to happen either . I know that it's a serious offense to resell fixed soul ammunitions, but I had no choice . They took my family . My son is still in their hands . I'm completely helpless, and I have no other options . I'll definitely have to take you as well, seeing that you're the general's biological sister . I suspect that you'll surely be of great value to them, so it should be to my benefit . Help Staff Officer Shen to stand up . We must leave now . Thank god it's still night time . Notify our escape route to make the preparations . We depart immediately . "
