Douluo's Steady Douluo

Chapter 198: Task Master
Back at the lake, Xie Chun jumped off the shoulders of the giant ape, and took out the scraps and wood left over from the previous building to prepare for cooking.

"Are you going to cook grilled fish?" Xiao Wu licked her lips. After living in the human world for so long, she still has some knowledge.

"It's okay if you want to eat." Xie Chun poured out the six or seven fish that had just been collected in the system space, "I caught a lot."

He is still willing to give some convenience to this kind of trivial matter, just treat it as a favor, and when he wants to kill people with the Titan Giant Ape later, Xiao Wu is too embarrassed to agree.

"Then I'll wait here." Xiao Wu squatted aside, staring longingly at the simple grill he set up.

Flipping through the storage ring, Xie Chun successfully found all kinds of seasonings that he had hoarded before. In order to prevent himself from accidentally wandering outside, he had already prepared a series of things for survival in the wilderness.

Three tents were prepared alone, and there were countless other odds and ends for survival.

After threading a few fish, Xie Chun tentatively lit a fire, seeing that the spirit beasts had no objection, so he dared to increase the firepower.

This place is not a matter of setting fire to the mountain and sitting in the bottom of the prison. You will be arrested on the spot and sent to see God.

It's just that there is a lake next to it, so it's hard to burn it. It is estimated that the sky blue bull python will be extinguished with a flick of its tail.

As the flame gradually grew bigger, Xie Chun sprinkled the prepared sauce, and the sound of sizzling gradually appeared between the firelight, and after a few minutes, the tempting aroma came from the grill.

The fish on the grill was already dead, but there was still a strange light in its eyes.

Xiao Wu, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, couldn't bear it long ago, and quickly asked, "Is it all right?"

"Let's eat." Xie Chun handed over a skewer of fish that was just cooked, then turned down the heat, and the rest was roasted sauce.

"It smells so good, can I eat it?" Titan Giant Ape bent down and sniffed, and immediately took a few steps closer to the grill.

"Why don't you change the day? This little food is not enough for you to eat." As soon as the words fell, Xie Chun was shocked, and the titan giant ape in front of him shone for a while, and then turned into a muscular man.

"You have also transformed into a human?" Xie Chun subconsciously called up the system panel, which still displayed the words 10-year-old soul beast, and there was no information about the transformation at all.

An ethereal voice came from behind him: "It just has the appearance of a human being, but it is still a soul beast in essence."

Xie Chun turned his head and saw a handsome young man with bull horns on his head, a real tauren.

"By the way, why aren't you a girl? Your voice should be female." He strongly condemned this point. What the show lacks now is girls who are good-looking and can be beaten, not handsome men.

"There is no distinction between male and female pythons." Da Ming quietly sat next to Xiao Wu, picked up a bunch of grilled fish and ate them with peace of mind.

Turning his head and looking, the silent Er Ming had already eaten two strings of fish.

Damn it, it's a good thing he is a food-type soul master, otherwise he might not even be able to eat lunch if he makes a trip.

Taking out a few barrels of instant noodles and putting them on the ground, Xie Chun picked up a skewer of grilled fish and took a fierce bite, then looked at Daming: "Actually, I suggest you make a female appearance, anyway, it's all fake, you can change it however you want. "

"why?"

"Because girls can increase the ratings." Xie Chun said the eternal truth. "I'm going to tell you about this. First of all, the hair must be black and straight, then the chest must be big, and the legs should be longer. As for the clothes, I will draw you a design later. Just change."

"???"

Tianqing Niuban finally rejected his proposal, which is a bit of a pity.

"Why don't you think about it again? Become our company's image spokesperson, speak for the Star Forest, and you will be famous in human society at once." Xie Chun found something wrong when he said this, "Forget it, you can continue to eat fish. .”

If the Star Dou Great Forest became famous, maybe there would be more soul masters who came to hunt for soul rings, wouldn't that be counter-propaganda?
In the end, Xie Chun only had time to eat one piece of grilled fish, and the rest was divided up by the three soul beasts.

"Hi, I'll catch fish for you later, let's continue eating this tonight." Er Ming is already ready to catch the fish in that river dry, and the leftovers can be saved when the time comes.

"As you wish." Xie Chun looked at the young man who was only half a head taller than him, could the Gundam not be able to drive now?
Xiao Wu beside her was lying on the grass basking in the sun, Xie Chun looked at her and suddenly realized something.

"Wait a minute, since you can all transform into human forms, why does Xiao Wu have to become a human to rebuild?"

"You really don't know?" Daming looked at him strangely.

"My situation is quite special." Xie Chun coughed lightly, "Why don't you tell me?"

"To put it simply, when a soul beast reaches 10 years of cultivation, it has two choices. One is to maintain its own strength to survive, that is, like Er Ming and I, the price is that it can only survive for 1000 years."

".1000 years?"

"Yes, after 1000 years, there will be a catastrophe for soul beasts. Only after passing through can you continue to live. If you can't get through, you will die and die. Most soul beasts can't get through this hurdle. Choose this hurdle. The road basically represents a lifespan of only 1000 years."

"That sounds good. Another option is to transform into a human like Xiao Wu and practice again." Xie Chun wondered how long human beings can live, no matter how upgraded they are, it is impossible to live for 1000 years.

"Well, after the soul beast takes shape, you need to start training from the beginning, and you must contact humans to progress, and you can truly hide your identity as a soul beast after entering the mature stage after level [-]." The Azure Bull Python nodded.

"Then, isn't it full of food? Its lifespan is short, and its strength needs to be rebuilt. Even entering human society, there is a risk of being hunted and killed. Why do some soul beasts choose to take form?" Xie Chun really couldn't understand this. Wave operation, if it were him instead, it would be better to stock up a wave of food during the soul beast period and wait for the catastrophe.

The Azure Bull Python was silent for a few seconds, then quietly glanced at Xiao Wu who lowered his head: "Of course it's because of the great potential of human beings, and once they break through the [-]-level barrier, they will be able to live forever, comparable to gods."

"Breakthrough level [-]?" Xie Chun thought of the information he had collected before, that there really are gods in this world, and those gods should be soul masters who have broken through level [-].

"Becoming a god at level [-] is not something to talk about." Azure Niuban smiled, "And soul beasts are destined not to become gods, so they can only transform into humans to pursue the slightest possibility."

"Why can't soul beasts become gods?" Xie Chun wondered if there is racial discrimination in this place too?
"That starts from a long time ago"

Xie Chun: "."

It's broken, it looks like it triggered the rhythm of a certain mission plot, and I'm afraid it will not be a long cutscene CG, plus a group of NPCs sending missions.
