Douluo: The Peerless Sun, Moon, and Yuhao

Chapter 225 Beginning...Unit Zero, activated

"Brother...ah no, Brother Huo, Brother Hao...no, no, no...uh..."

"Anyway, I remember that soul rings can only be added when the soul power level reaches the bottleneck? But I haven't even reached 25 yet, so what's the use of calling me here."

Bai Xiuxiu, who had just regained her freedom and had not had time to rejoice that she did not seem to be in danger of becoming a sashimi for the time being, suddenly had a nervous look on her face as she spoke.

"Is it possible that you planned to deceive me from the beginning?"

Huo Yuhao raised his eyebrows, said "Oh" and asked, "Didn't Lin Xi tell you?"

"Say...what do you say?"

"Looking at your reaction, it's true that he didn't tell you. No wonder, I happened to not mention it to him either." Huo Yuhao smiled and pushed the soul beast illustrated book on the table to Bai Xiuxiu.

"The fusion of souls does not strictly require soul power level like adding a soul ring. As long as the body can bear it, it can be done at any time."

"It's just that the load of souls on mental power is not small. According to our calculations, based on the general mental power level of a normal soul master, using two or three souls to stack up to the sixth or seventh level is basically the upper limit. This is already an absolute limit. This is a threshold that some soul masters cannot cross in their lifetime."

"For the sake of insurance for soul fusion, it is best to fuse the soul when the soul power reaches the bottleneck and the mental power level reaches its peak. However, if you are confident about the mental power level, it doesn't matter a little earlier, let alone your situation. .”

Bai Xiuxiu nodded thoughtfully: "So that's it... This is much more flexible than the original situation, right?"

"That's just an unintentional side effect. Let's go and choose a soul that suits you."

Huo Yuhao stood up from his chair, hooked his hand to Bai Xiuxiu and motioned for her to follow him.

Bai Xiuxiu stood up and followed Huo Yuhao in hospital clothes. After thinking about it, she couldn't help but ask:
"Don't you still have a lot to ask me?"

"Yes, but it is precisely because there may be too many things to ask. You should not delay too much time here and affect the students behind you. Come to this room to find me after dinner in the evening, and then we can talk alone."

Huo Yuhao led the way, pointing to several portraits of soul beasts hanging on both sides of the corridor and explained:

"This place was renovated from a spirit beast zoo a long time ago. Now it is mainly engaged in the research of spirit beasts. Some related equipment has been retained and continues to function."

"For example, the soul beast safety cage, the visitor observation corridor, and... the sea soul beast aquarium."

Bai Xiuxiu followed and listened carefully. When she heard "Sea Soul Beast Aquarium", a strange expression appeared on her face.

The poor and helpless sea soul beast was restrained in a small aquarium, and could only humiliately let the humans who could eat it with just one mouth stand outside to criticize, watch and point... It's so strange. oh!

"By the way, which soul do you like most, the Great White Shark or the Deep Sea Demonic Whale?" Huo Yuhao suddenly asked while walking on the road.

"Can I choose between these two? It seems that neither one is suitable for me... If I must choose, it would be the Deep Sea Demonic Whale." Bai Xiuxiu was greatly shocked.

"Oh, it's a pity that we don't have either of these two kinds of magical beasts, and the Thousand-Year Soul Beast seems to have no use other than being your pet." Huo Yuhao turned around and smiled.

"...Has anyone ever told you that such a character is a bit bad?"

"You're really boring. If I were an ordinary person, I wouldn't talk to him like this... We're coming soon. The sea soul beast can only be a 7000-year-old ice sea electric ray at most. Do you want it or get it from the land soul beast? Choose one?"

"I think I'd better choose carefully. Those with higher seniority may not be suitable for me..."

There were dozens of students sent by the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy to participate in the soul experiment, and it was obviously impossible for them all to complete the process in one day; some students who were not scheduled to fuse souls that day were sent directly to the living area to get off work early.

As for the students who were lucky enough to come to choose their favorite souls on the first day, Huo Yuhao pulled them one by one to talk more about their personal life situations, allowing Huo Yuhao to get a general understanding of the recent high-quality students of the academy.

Generally speaking, in this era when combat power is rapidly expanding and Shrek Academy is constantly dropping combat power in the later stages, the quality of students at the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy can only be said to remain stable as always...

So much so that Bai Xiuxiu, who had no foundation in soul tools, was able to beat everyone in the mid-term assessment with a total score, and even this phenomenon would continue until they graduated.

After nightfall, Bai Xiuxiu, who had finished dinner with her classmates, took advantage of the opportunity when others went back to sleep. She escaped smoothly and sneaked back into the office where Huo Yuhao was interrogated during the day like a thief.

"The Demonic Great White Shark clan has lost contact...what the hell is this?"

From Bai Xiuxiu's mouth, he asked in detail about all the events that had happened since the last separation between the two. Huo Yuhao coaxed him away like a child and begged him in tears, "Please help me find my clan members. The Demon Soul Great White Shark clan must be rich." Bai Xiuxiu of "Newspaper".

Sitting in the room with no lights on, Huo Yuhao was bathed in the faint moonlight, with a calm face and constantly thinking about the news he had learned from Bai Xiuxiu. The top 3 in the extreme north in the sea of ​​​​spirits were also discussing intensely.

"The Demon Soul Great White Shark clan suddenly disappeared after the natural disaster... I have heard about them. They are a very dominant race in the offshore area."

The Snow Emperor and the Ice Emperor sat side by side on a sightseeing boat in the sea of ​​​​spirits, leaning on their chins and speaking softly.

"I can make this race disappear silently. I'm afraid...I can't think of the reason at the moment. I probably don't have this ability." The Snow Emperor shook his head and looked at the calm lake around him with complicated eyes. the spiritual sea.

Sitting in the driver's seat, manipulating the rocker to change the direction of the sightseeing boat, the boatman Tian Meng thought about it carefully and then said:

"When I was captured by Di Tian and others in the Star Dou Forest to absorb energy, I heard some secrets."

"The Demon Soul Great White Shark is a member of the Poseidon. I wouldn't be surprised if they have something that can communicate with the divine world. And as the little girl said, their clan also has a way to instantly contact the little princess like her... as long as If there's a chance, I think her parents will at least get some word out to her."

The Ice Emperor held a glass of lemon juice in his hand, looked at the simulated moon and night sky above the sea of ​​​​spirits, shook the lemon juice with ice cubes and said:
"I think you can let your imagination run wild... For example, during a natural disaster, a meteorite suddenly fell from the sky and hit their home, causing an undersea earthquake. Anyway, given the situation at the time, it would probably be covered up. Hello. , Yuhao, what do you think?"

"It's all just guessing anyway. I think something even more outrageous than this is possible." Huo Yuhao sat on the back of the boat, holding a fishing rod, looking at the fish float where there was destined to be no feedback, and said with a smile.

Niang Xipi, what kind of strange development have I encountered?

Is it possible that the Demonic Great White Shark clan was approached in advance to seek revenge?That's not a problem, the difference is 2 years.

You can't really be killed by a meteorite like the Ice King joked, right?
Bai Xiuxiu can't change the world, but the loss of contact with the Demon Soul Great White Shark clan really has to be taken seriously.

The preoccupied Huo Yuhao was worried about this, as was Di Tian who was far away in the Star Dou Forest.

Lin Rachel, who also learned about the fate of the Great White Sharks of Demon Soul from Bai Xiuxiu's mouth, sent a letter to a mysterious address. The letter was then handed over to Di Tian - she obviously had more convenient contact information. But just too lazy to use it.

Even the Snow Emperor was not sure that he could kill the Demonic Great White Shark clan without leaking the news, and Di Tian could not do it either. The Red King, who had lost his job because Miss Ruiju was traveling, was already shouldering the secret investigation ordered by Di Tian. The mission is to go to the southern seas of the Sun and Moon Empire.

Although he did not get a clear guarantee from Huo Yuhao that "I will protect you from now on", Huo Yuhao obviously had no intention of exposing Bai Xiuxiu, which made Bai Xiuxiu very satisfied.

Especially after the last student successfully fused his soul three days later, there was still no secret inspection team from the Sun and Moon Empire to drag him away. Bai Xiuxiu was completely relieved and began to experience that she only needed daily physical examinations and nothing else. A short vacation on a mission.

It's just that the outstanding students from all grades of the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy were too involved, and they brought this atmosphere to their new residence, so Bai Xiuxiu, who originally wanted to eat and drink in peace for a few days, had to pick up the book. Let’s learn together.

After Huo Yuhao completed the soul fusion work that he could only count on himself, he left the remaining task of "monitoring the vital signs of the volunteers for the next month" to others, and turned around to participate in new tasks.

A few days later, the Mingdetang underground base was re-reinforced according to new drawings.

Jing Hongchen stood proudly in a laboratory that was a hundred meters in diameter and 30 meters in height, looking at the 15-meter-tall metal man in front of him.Although the Experimental Subject No. [-] in front of us can only be regarded as a semi-finished product, it has not yet been equipped with complete subsystems. Its core core array function system has been very complete, and the main technical problems have been overcome.

The humanoid soul guide is no less a super project than the high-energy compression array soul guide. The extremely complex project has been dismantled into seemingly unrelated sub-projects and distributed for research. However, the entire Sun and Moon Empire can complete There are only a handful of soul engineers who understand his situation.

Huo Yuhao can only be regarded as "qualified to understand the general situation". If it weren't for Jing Hongchen's importance, he shouldn't be here to watch today.

"Finally...my years of hard work have now seen the light of day, and the whole machine can be tested today!"

"Hahaha, I laugh at the poisonous and ignorant Shaozhi of the Noumenon Sect. They only know how to snatch the 10-year-old soul beast embryo. So what if they snatch it away? The real treasure was once right in front of them!"

"As long as there is it, as long as there is Experimental Subject No. [-], how many [-] million gold soul coins can I want but I can't get it?"

Jing Hongchen stepped forward, patted the thigh of the humanoid soul guide, and laughed.

The Snow Emperor in the spiritual sea made a "cut" sound, put down his sunglasses, put his head in his hands and continued sunbathing, and no longer used Huo Yuhao's senses to look at the old human man.

"Congratulations to the Hall Master for your great achievement!"

"Congratulations, Hall Master, for adding another important weapon to the country!"

"As expected of Master Hongchen, he easily accomplished what we couldn't do!"

Rainbow farts were sent up one after another. Jing Hongchen waved his hands and humbly said "Thank you" while continuing to smile like a villain.

Huo Yuhao also used mental detection to carefully scan the details of the humanoid soul guide. Just the passages formed by the thousands of core magic arrays on its body only require a soul guide of Jing Hongchen's level to be able to operate it!

In comparison, Xuan Ziwen's current research on sealed baby bottles and soul ring memory is just like Tu Yile in terms of complexity...

Just by understanding this thing, Huo Guai actually made a [-]-meter youth version of the humanoid soul guide before the exchange student ended to persuade Xuan Ziwen to change jobs!

Huo Yuhao thought about it and realized that he might not be able to do this, because Electrolux had already arranged a teaching course on undead magic for him, and Snow Emperor and the others were also waiting for him to digest the time bomb of Snow Pill as soon as possible. There are also a lot of start-up things over there waiting for my decision...

Compared with Huo Gua, the survival rate of his relatives and friends is a little higher, so he has more things to be busy with. Having the humanoid soul guide controlled by the Hongchen Hall Master is not his focus. It is definitely not as hungry as Huo Gua. to learn.

Touching the metal leg of the humanoid soul guide with emotion and fascination, Jing Hongchen turned around and asked, "Yuhao, do you want to try controlling the humanoid soul guide?"

"Me?" Huo Yuhao hesitated for a moment under the envious gazes of everyone.

"Isn't my identity inappropriate? What if I accidentally press the wrong button..."

Jing Hongchen smiled and shook his head: "It doesn't matter. I have manipulated this thing a lot during debugging. In the future, the threshold for using humanoid soul guides will be lowered, and it is more than enough to control it with your current knowledge."

"You are here to test drive it, also to test its downward compatibility. After all, as a ninth-level soul engineer, I am not aware of some ordinary people's troubles and problems."

"What the hall master said is, then... I won't be polite."

Jing Hongchen first went to the cockpit and entered the operating password - something he had never revealed to anyone for fear of accidentally leaking the secret; then he called Huo Yuhao up to experience it.

The outer armor of the cockpit slowly closed after Huo Yuhao entered it. There are two ways to operate the giant 15-meter-tall humanoid soul guide and the miniature, personal-fitting humanoid soul guide that each ninth-level soul master has in the later part of the original work.

The former is closer to the lines of EVA, Gundam, and mecha, while the latter is more like power armor.

The two also formed two development lines of mecha and doukai respectively ten thousand years later, so that Xuan Ziwen, who later developed the ice-level war god armor, became in a sense the father of doukai, and his historical status is higher than that of Jing Hongchen. The old boss is much taller - because Experimental Subject No. [-] was stolen, Jing Hongchen became a loser whose reputation was ruined in a lifetime.

Listening to Jing Hongchen outside, he briefly explained the operation method of Experimental Subject No. [-]. Huo Yuhao looked at the console with joysticks and buttons in front of him and had to admit that the operating threshold of this thing was indeed very low and user-friendly.

"Everyone, please stay away, Yuhao, you can test-run Experimental Subject No. [-]!" Jing Hongchen shouted in the empty laboratory.

"Copy that." Huo Yuhao responded through the loudspeaker, then turned off the loudspeaker switch.

Stepping on the pedal and holding down the rocker to push the 15-meter-tall humanoid soul guide forward slowly, Huo Yuhao muttered in a low voice:

"Unit No. [-], move..."

"Hiss... there seems to be something wrong. Is this thing closer to the positioning of Unit Zero?"

Seeing that Experimental Subject No. [-] still showed enough fluency to perform various basic movements under Huo Yuhao's first operation, Jing Hongchen nodded with satisfaction and welcomed a new round of rainbow farts from the senior soul mentors around him.

However, considering that Huo Yuhao's status in Jing Hongchen's eyes was no secret, a large part of everyone's rainbow fart was transferred to "I just said that Yuhao is extremely talented, but you, the hall master, have a better vision."

Huo Yuhao was busy tinkering with his Unit Zero, Bai Xiuxiu was showing off four nutritious meals every day at the medical base, including midnight snacks, Lin Ruiqiu was wandering the streets of Mingdu thinking about treasure hunting, and Wang Donger...

In view of the fact that his studies have been delayed a lot, Wang Donger, who simply continued to live in Mingdu after his failure, did not know that he was being targeted.

The location of Haotian Sect was too remote, and the scenery of Shrek City was already tired. After the special envoy arrived to pay the ransom, Wang Donger protested to Meng Hongchen and successfully evacuated the senior soul master who was monitoring her. She knew that her studies this semester had been delayed too much, Wang Donger, who was no longer under any psychological pressure after the mess, simply stayed temporarily.

She even asked for mental compensation from Meng Hongchen and asked for a special pass to the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy so that she could reunite with Xiao Xiao and other classmates or attend.

Meng Hongchen, who already knew that Wang Dong'er was allergic to offensive soul tools, was still talking about how Wang Dong'er refused to approve the trick that Wang Dong'er poked out. Even now, when she saw Wang Dong'er waiting for someone to block the door, she turned around and left, and the offensive and defensive positions changed for a while.

After nightfall, two men in black robes distanced themselves from Wang Donger and whispered.

"Are you sure she's okay?"

"I've confirmed it. Now the Ming Dynasty is tightening control. It only has no control over the foreign population. If we can't find sacrifices or earn ransoms, we won't be able to meet the quota for this quarter. The elders will blame it..."

"Damn, you're really mentally ill. It's not easy for a branch in Mingdu to be cautious enough to survive. Why are you setting targets for us?"

"Don't tell me, am I the one who put down the task? During the Ming Dynasty's crackdown a few days ago, several parts of our industry have been closed down to this day. Now we can only maintain operations due to the tight flow of water, let alone meet the capital handover requirements. "

A man in black was silent for a long time and said: "So we are going to kidnap?"

"The sacrifices and funds must be handed over. I secretly confirmed that she couldn't take out her citizen card when she stayed in the hotel."

“Damn that’s embarrassing.”

"I've done it a lot before, but now that life is getting better, you want to clear your name?"

"But... let me tell you, there is at least one relative or lover of a beautiful woman that you cannot afford to offend."

"So there is a lot of money to be made. Without high risks, there is no high returns. Are you going to do it? You have done so many wet jobs before, but don't get wet this time. If you don't accept others, the elders will ask you to do it next month. Coming to collect you!"

　Gua, it’s too late to have dinner with my classmates
