Give Douluo a technological shock

"Are you sure you can kill him???" Chen Fu hadn't reacted much at first, but when he heard that Jin Lin was going to give Chen Hong a 'flying spear' attack, his expression immediately became very strange.

Chen Hong: My goodness, I didn't do anything to you, why are you trying to kill me?

“I can’t kill her.” Jin Lin thought about it seriously and realized that she really didn’t know how to kill Chen Fu, but she still said earnestly, “But I will keep trying!”

Chen Fu remained silent, but his mind was in turmoil.

Chen Hong: Boss!!! I didn't do anything!!! Where did this disaster come from?! Help!!!

'How about you make a sacrifice?'

Chen Hong: My ass! Look at what she's saying, is she even speaking human language? She already said she didn't know how to kill me, what does "will keep trying" mean? I'm not even a few months old, what grudge or injustice did she inflict on me?

'Hmm, is it better to have a short, sharp pain than a long, drawn-out one?' Chen Fu was trying hard not to laugh out loud.

Chen Hong: ? ? ? ? ? ?

"Here, catch." With that, Chen Fu reached out and brushed the silver bird-patterned ring on the end of her hair, took out a delicate silver ring the size of a ring from the spatial soul tool, and then tossed it to Jin Lin in the distance.

"What is this?" Jin Lin grabbed the silver ring accurately in one go, and then looked at Chen Fu without looking at it.

"The Soul Lock Ring made of Spatial Mithril, besides being able to use the Soul Lock effect, also contains an access permission, a sub-plate belonging to my Creation Permission, the same sub-plate as that guy Hong. If you really don't like him, just use this to shut down his access to the Heavenly Dao Network, and then use your Gundam to stab him to death."

"Of course, you can't use this permission now; it will be unlocked at the appropriate time."

Chen Fu shrugged, indicating that you could poke whoever you wanted, it didn't matter.

Jin Lin looked at the hand she was holding, a smile appearing on her face. Then she quickly turned and disappeared around the corner, but her gentle voice clearly reached Chen Fu's ears: "Hmph, fine!"

Watching the golden scales disappear in the blink of an eye, as if fleeing, Chen Fu smiled helplessly.

"I apologize for making a fool of myself in front of my colleagues."

Chen Fu spoke softly to the empty void under the night sky, then turned and disappeared.

The Dawn Ship's once-a-year return voyage is a rare occurrence. The people in Dawn City now include not only those powerful old men and women, but also many titled Douluo.

While the outside world is constantly producing Title Douluos, Star Dou is naturally also capable of producing them, since the Pandora Core is produced by its own people.

Besides titled Douluo like Qingmu, who joined early on under Ye Kongtian's influence, other Soul Masters with insufficient background and strength also joined Star Dou gradually. Among them were some commoner genius Soul Douluo who couldn't get Pandora Cores due to insufficient bloodline quality. Combined with the natural bounty of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, Star Dou boasts over ten human titled Douluo, though most are of lower rank, the sheer number is impressive. Furthermore, many of the Body Soul Douluo from the Body Sect, who have been wandering outside to avoid external panic, have also advanced to titled ranks. Therefore, Star Dou may have a total of twenty to thirty human titled Douluo.

Of course, this is still a bit few compared to the more than two hundred titled humans on the entire continent. After all, every family has its own titled Douluo.

Even the Sun Moon Empire, which has always had very few Title Douluos, is now approaching twenty after receiving the bounty of nature from the Holy Spirit Church.

Jin Lin was a Soul Douluo who specialized in body cultivation, so he had no idea how many eyes were hidden in these empty voids.

And that doesn't even include the 100,000-year-old soul beasts in the ocean, which are not even human-owned.

It's alright, it's all Chen Fu's fault for losing face.

In short, it's solid and substantial.

Woo!

As dawn broke over Dawn Harbor, the Dawn ship arrived as promised.

It carries the hopes and longings of people on both sides of the Taiwan Strait.

The fit young man stood on the high deck, his sharp eyes proving invaluable as he quickly spotted the girl waiting quietly for him amidst the cheering crowd.

A pale gold, pure white dress; blue and pink hair; and sparkling starry eyes—just as he looked when he left this land, and just as he looks now upon his return.

Time seemed to fly by, but in the man's bright, intelligent eyes, they were like two warm and pure hearts, never changing.

"Beautiful lady, may I have the honor of having lunch with you?"

The man looked tenderly at the girl who was still in a daze, and confidently and gracefully bent down and extended his hand.

These small yet skillful movements must have been practiced countless times behind the scenes.

However, just as this familiar handsome guy was flirting with his friend, Xiao Xiao next to Wang Dong laughed and said, "Your movements are so practiced, do you often hold other people's hands over there?"

"Huh?" Huo Yuhao, who had been radiating confidence and sunshine, was instantly brought back to reality by Xiaoxiao's heart-to-heart words. He immediately became stammering, and his face flushed as he nervously explained to Wang Dong, "Ah! No, no! No! I..."

"Hehe," the girl from before had grown into a beautiful young woman. Seeing the boy revert to his old awkwardness, she burst out laughing. Her smile was bright and gentle, like a bright galaxy or the warmth of spring, sincere and radiant, gentle and warm.

"Don't listen to Xiaoxiao's nonsense, she's just a troublemaker." Wang Dong'er tugged at Xiaoxiao, who was still laughing happily, and said to a person who was walking silently and seemingly non-existently in the distance, "Where's your buddy over there? Why don't you go catch up?"

"Huh?" Xiao Xiao was confused for a moment, then followed Wang Dong'er's gaze and saw a "plain" and "unremarkable" person dressed in light blue casual clothes. However, when you saw this person, you could almost hear the sound of wind rustling through the bamboo forest.

"It's been a long time. The little rascal from back then has grown into such a charming young man." Yang Xiao, with his black hair and blue eyes, who was known as "a golden light blooming among commoners," walked to Huo Yuhao's side and then smiled gently at Xiao Xiao, who looked like a girl next door.

"Ah! You're the brat!" Xiao Xiao blushed bright red when Yang Xiao called her that, and glared angrily at the blue-eyed man in front of her whose aura seemed to be interacting with the outside world.

She just has a golden dinosaur cub, she's not some kind of brat!

"Haha, let's go, there are plenty of elders here, let's not block the passage." A bright and clear light flashed in Yang Xiao's blue eyes. He smiled and nodded to the elders who were "hiding" in the distance. Then he invited Xiao Xiao and Wang Dong'er to come with him to other places for a gathering.

"Haha, yeah, there are so many seniors I don't recognize. Let's go, Dong'er, let's find somewhere else to chat. Lots of people are watching us." As he spoke, Huo Yuhao's cheeks, which had been pretending to be a sunny young man, suddenly became a little hot.

"Huh? Really? Is that so?" Wang Dong'er and Xiao Xiao didn't know what the two were talking about. They looked around but didn't find anything wrong.

If we're talking about gazes, then many passersby do occasionally cast glances at the two of them, but such gazes from the opposite sex shouldn't be enough to make Huo Yuhao react like this, especially since Yang Xiao referred to them as "seniors."

"Let's go, let's talk somewhere else." Yang Xiao smiled, without explaining, and pulled Huo Yuhao up, leading Wang Dong'er and Xiao Xiao towards an "old shop" that he knew about but had been around for less than five years.

Passing through the crowd of family members who came to welcome them back from their long voyage, Yang Xiao and Huo Yuhao looked curiously at this metropolis that had completed the transformation from the industrial age to the modern age in just three years, while leading Wang Dong'er and Xiao Xiao toward a shop located on a bustling central street, but with a very elegant environment.

This is a detached wooden building with a sign on the outside depicting a large, round-headed shark blowing bubbles in a deep blue coral reef.

This shop is owned by a bubble-blowing soul beast friend that Yang Xiao met while on duty in Kunlun Continent. As for why this friend was able to be so willful as to open his tea shop, which he used for leisure, in the city center, we have to mention the Demon Soul Great White Shark force behind this friend.

叮叮

Amidst the crisp sound of wind chimes, Yang Xiao led Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong'er, and Xiao Xiao through the door. However, Yang Xiao did not see anyone he recognized at the front desk, so he went over and whispered a few words to the receptionist before being led by the staff to sit on a beautiful little balcony.

"Brother Yang, did you come here often before?" Looking at Yang Xiao's composed expression and natural posture, Huo Yuhao, who rarely frequented such places, couldn't help but feel a little nervous. At the same time, Xiao Xiao asked, "Weren't you always mining on the Kunlun Continent? How come you seem so familiar with this place? I didn't even know this place before. I only heard from the Buddha that it's a social circle for powerful sea spirit beasts."

"Never been here before? What's wrong?" Yang Xiao poured everyone their favorite drinks, and then continued, "Hey, how can you say it's mining? Although I've mined before, my job is usually to patrol the sea and crack down on the local specialties there."

"Local specialties? What are those?" Wang Dong'er first thanked Yang Xiao, and then asked curiously what local specialties were.

"Hahaha, you're so silly! The local specialty over there is pirates!" Xiao Xiao burst out laughing. Only Wang Dong'er, who had been in seclusion, would be so foolish.

"Huh? This...this is considered a local specialty?" Wang Dong'er was extremely surprised, thinking, "This thing is considered a local specialty?"

“It’s a huge area, and we don’t have enough manpower, so we often trade with the local people. That’s why the pirates target the transport ships that don’t have our people.”

"Although spatial soul tools can also be used to transport them, except for a very few rare resources, primitive transportation methods are generally used. Firstly, there aren't many spatial soul tools that require advanced soul tool engineers to create them by hand. Secondly, the proliferation of spatial soul tools can easily lead to more rampant theft."

Seeing Wang Dong'er's confusion, Huo Yuhao immediately explained the reason to her, and also explained the reasons behind it.

"Well, logically speaking, there are two very primitive empires over there."

"They're not primitive anymore. They recently announced a complete change in their ruling structure. Before, they were a united large tribe, but now they've directly adopted our system, becoming the Behemoth Empire and the Heavenly Fox Empire." Huo Yuhao looked at Wang Dong'er with some surprise, but still patiently explained to her.

"Alright." Wang Dong'er rolled her eyes at Huo Yuhao, who made her look like a complete idiot, and then continued what she had said earlier: "As an empire, there are very few soul masters among the common people. How can those commoners compete with the empire's soul masters?"

This was what Wang Dong'er was curious about. Leaving aside other matters, even within the Douluo Continent beneath her feet, she had never heard of anyone without soul power, or a commoner soul master, trying to steal official items. Regardless of their intentions, the sheer difference in strength was enough to deter ordinary people.

"Um..." Huo Yuhao hesitated, glancing at Yang Xiao, unsure whether he should speak.

"It's alright, we don't have any confidentiality agreement regarding this." Yang Xiao drank his tea alone, then glanced at Xiao Xiao across from him and said helplessly, "Stop glancing at me all the time, just say what's on your mind."

"You! Who would even look at you!" Xiao Xiao blushed slightly after being called out, turned away angrily, and drank her beverage.

Having received confirmation, Huo Yuhao ignored the two strange people and said to Wang Dong'er, "Most of the pirates over there are officially affiliated, although they don't admit it publicly."

"Don't let their seemingly foolish appearance fool you; they're actually quite clever. For example, they'll rob their own people's transport ships, kill the ordinary people on board, stage a pirate scene, and then sell the goods back to us. Of course, they only dare to sell them twice."

"Well, how should I put it? A smart fool." Huo Yuhao thought for a moment and then gave this assessment.

"That you"

"Those slaves used for consumption, or even those captured from who-knows-where, are naturally unwilling to accept this. So in many large mining areas, our people distribute simple alarm devices to notify nearby patrol teams to come to the rescue. Brother Yang is in charge of this kind of thing, but his area is to regularly patrol the sea and sometimes escort ships along the route."

The people on the Kunlun Continent, well, they're pretty inhuman.

Since Xingdou only had about 10,000 people on that vast land, which was undoubtedly insignificant compared to the entire continent, they often contacted the mines directly. These mines would then transport the goods to the designated locations, where Xingdou would pack and take them away.

However, after the local natives behaved themselves for a while, they discovered a loophole in this receiving process. Stardust's wages were paid as soon as the mine started operating, but if the goods disappeared midway, the mine's wages still had to be paid.

The Star Dou people didn't dare to move, after all, the lesson of over 100,000 of them being wiped out by a single shot wasn't long ago, and their memories of this ancient environment and society were still very vivid. However, their decision to specifically arrange transport convoys without any Soul Master escorts was a bit odd. So the reason for not having enough Soul Masters was that all those people had gone to become pirates and bandits?

"Huh? Is it really that bad?" Not only Wang Dong'er, but also Xiao Xiao, who was still angry with Yang Xiao, was surprised by this "role-playing" game that only insiders knew about. Are human lives really that worthless?

Even if that truckload of goods is worth millions, well, human life is indeed worthless.

Having lived in Xingdou for only five or six years in an environment that guarantees basic life rights, Xiaoxiao had almost forgotten that an ordinary person's life was worth only a few gold soul coins.

Are Gold Soul Coins really that valuable? Considering the "basic allowance" used by Soul Masters during the Spirit Hall era ten thousand years ago, an eleventh-level Soul Master could receive ten Gold Soul Coins a month as "basic allowance." In other words, it would take several people to consume their monthly allowance.

However, during the Spirit Hall era, there was a dedicated Soul Master wanted squad to keep most Soul Masters from achieving their theoretical KPIs. For example, one of the reasons why Zhao Wuji, one of the Shrek Academy's founding members, was wanted by the Spirit Hall was that he killed many civilians in a battle with the enemy in the city.

"So how did you respond?"

"A response? Since everyone's already tacitly agreeing, let's just treat them as pirates."

Huo Yuhao shrugged indifferently.

"Huh? Isn't that very dangerous?" Xiao Xiao exclaimed in surprise. She thought everyone was just pretending not to know each other and that life should go on as usual. She shouldn't give up the environment she had worked so hard to build just because she was being cheated on.

"Danger, perhaps a little," Yang Xiao said with an equally nonchalant smile.
