41Chapter 41: Federal Protection
"Stop talking nonsense." Leng Yulai waved his hand without looking back. Three streams of purple-black flames suddenly changed their trajectory and burned through the limbs of the three survivors. "Isn't this one still breathing?"
She walked slowly down the stairs made of purple-black flames. With every step she took, a burning footprint appeared on the ground.
Coming to the only black-robed man who could still moan, she raised her foot and stepped on his mask.
"Tell me." Flames danced at her fingertips. "Who sent you?"
The black-robed man's lips trembled, and the mask on his face suddenly forced a smile:
"You will soon find out..."
Before he finished speaking, his body suddenly swelled violently.
Gu Chenyu, who was extremely sensitive to the soul, changed his expression drastically and quickly shouted in a low voice:
"Be careful, it's the soul that explodes!"
"boom!"
A violent mental shock wave swept out, but was blocked in time by a light curtain formed by a purple-black flame.
Leng Yulai frowned slightly and looked at the others.
But they all blew themselves up as if their mission had failed.
Leave no one alive.
"Is this... a death squad?"
Leng Yulai took a breath of cold air.
In such a vast Douluo Continent, there are not many organizations that can train so many death warriors, and their strength is between Soul Emperor and Soul Douluo.

"They are not ordinary death warriors, but specially transformed soul masters."
Gu Chenyu stepped forward in time and checked the remaining traces.
"Is it the Tang Sect?"
Leng Yulai looked at Lu Jun with concern.
They all knew that the Tang Clan had been thinking about Lu Jun for a long time.
"I don't know either." Gu Chenyu shook his head. "I believe most people in the forces are aware of the Tang Sect's invasion of the Spirit Pagoda."
"The aura of their souls doesn't seem like that of the righteous people of the Tang Sect. Perhaps they aren't the Tang Sect."
"Perhaps some forces knew about our conflict with the Tang Sect, so they disguised themselves as members of the Tang Sect and attacked us?"
"...Those people from the Tang Sect are considered righteous people?" Leng Yulai laughed contemptuously, then his expression became serious. "However, if it weren't the Tang Sect, the situation would be even worse."
Gu Chenyu also fell silent.
If it's not the Tang Clan, then it means there are other forces targeting Lu Jun.
At this moment, the leading teacher, wearing a three-character battle armor, walked quickly over. He stopped five steps away from the two and saluted respectfully.
"Your Excellency, have you found out who did this?"
He is just a Titled Douluo in the academy.
One of them is the famous Dark Phoenix Douluo in the Spirit Pagoda, and the other is a Saint Craftsman and a Four-Character Battle Armor Master.
They are all above his status.
Leng Yulai shook his head and briefly explained their previous speculation.
The teacher's face grew darker with every word he spoke. When he heard that another force might be targeting Lu Jun, his fingers clenched unconsciously.
"This..." He hesitated for a moment, then lowered his voice and said, "How about, should Lu Jun cancel his participation? Let him stay in the academy. With the academy and the Spirit Pagoda protecting him, he's much safer than being outside."
"About this matter..."
Leng Yulai hesitated for a moment.
"We have to report this to the higher-ups and let them make the decision."
"After all, we are only responsible for protecting Lu Jun's safety."
"Okay, then I'll report the situation to the college's top management." The leading teacher nodded.
Both parties took out their communicators at the same time, walked to the side, and began to describe the process of the incident.
The students in the distance gathered together in a solemn atmosphere. It was obvious that they were beginning to worry about their lives because of the previous attack.
Long Chen kept rubbing his arms, the explosion just now still made him feel scared.
Just then, Leng Yulai ended the call and walked towards them.
Gu Chenyu and the team leader followed closely behind.
Leng Yulai walked up to Lu Jun and patted his shoulder:
"How are you?"
"I'm not seriously injured." Lu Jun smiled.
"Well, your on-the-spot reaction was pretty good, but you were a little too cocky," Leng Yulai commented, then continued, "However, the people above don't want to overprotect you. After all, even a genius has to go through numerous difficulties and break through themselves in desperate situations before they can truly stand on their own and become the pillar of a force."
Leng Yulai said:
"Your competition will continue. The Federation will arrange a dedicated soul guide train for us later."
Lu Jun raised his hand and rubbed his temple.
This is to train him severely.
"Don't worry, we're here to protect you. Even if someone is thinking about you, we can easily solve it like we did just now."
Leng Yulai comforted Lu Jun again, and then said to Gu Chenyu:
"I've called someone over. Let them investigate who these people are, where they're from, and what organization they belong to."
As soon as Leng Yulai finished speaking, a low roar suddenly came from the distant sky.
Everyone looked up and saw five pitch-black mechas cutting through the clouds, emitting a cold metallic luster in the sunlight.
Not only that, there was also a whole team of purple mechas following closely behind.
Each mecha has a striking emblem painted on its chest.
It is the emblem of the current Sun-Moon Federation.
"This... is it actually the mecha brigade that's here to escort us personally?" Long Chen's eyes widened.
Zhao Tianyu took a deep breath: "I didn't expect that the Federation would be so generous. Could it be..."
The students all turned their shocked eyes to Lu Jun.
This usually low-key freshman suddenly became mysterious in their eyes.
"Hey." Lin Yan quietly nudged Su Yu, "Could it be that classmate Lu Jun is the illegitimate son of the Federal Parliament Speaker?"
"This is too exaggerated!"
"There are also the Monarchs of the Spirit Pagoda who serve as his bodyguards."
"Don't talk nonsense. Classmate Lu Jun is a disciple of His Majesty the Heavenly Phoenix. This is normal." Su Yu whispered.
"I see!"
Everyone suddenly understood.
The leading black mecha has landed steadily, the cockpit opened, and a middle-aged man in federal military uniform jumped down nimbly.
"Report." The middle-aged man saluted Leng Yulai with a standard military salute. "The Seventh Special Service Group of the Federation has been ordered to escort you to Tianhai City."
Leng Yulai nodded slightly:
"Thanks for your hard work."
Not only that, when the Federation's specially made soul guide train slowly drove into the platform, everyone was shocked by the scene before them.
The silver-white streamlined body glowed with a cold light, and a striking federal emblem was printed on the body. This was not an ordinary civilian train, but an advanced soul guide transport vehicle used exclusively by the military.
"Is this also prepared for us?" Long Chen opened his mouth wide, his jaw almost dropping to the ground.
"That's right, go in quickly, this way you will be safer." Leng Yulai said calmly.
"With the Federation's protection, I believe those guys in the dark won't dare to act too recklessly."
"Knocking the mountain to scare the tiger is also a good choice, otherwise the problem will be endless."
