Douluo Continent, Huo Yuhao who returned from Sekiro

Chapter 440 Huo Yuhao's Unique Thinking (Daily 10,000 words)

Inside the undead demiplane, Huo Yuhao scratched the back of his head, staring at the hundreds of little skeletons trying to piece themselves back together, unsure of what expression to make.

Never mind, as long as the teacher is happy.

Huo Yuhao waved helplessly, drawing magical runes in the air to form a spatial teleportation array. After confirming that everything was correct, he teleported back to his dormitory.

Watching the gray six-pointed star slowly disappear beneath his feet, Huo Yuhao let out a long sigh.

The legendary mage Electrocchio has always claimed that among the five categories of necromancy, he is only proficient in two categories: curses and summoning, as well as soul science.

Huo Yuhao had a different opinion on this.

You're not good at alchemy, but when you were telling your personal story, you mentioned that you'd handcrafted some amazing artifacts.

You, sir, are not good at spatial magic, yet you created a demiplane and can easily cast interdimensional teleportation arrays with your bare hands, claiming it's an essential skill for survival.

True masters always have the heart of an apprentice.

After a night of meditation, Huo Yuhao went to class as usual.

The events that occurred yesterday in the dean's office were as if they had never happened; neither of them mentioned them.

Some things are best left unsaid, as long as everyone understands them.

For the next period of time, Huo Yuhao maintained a monotonous yet fulfilling life.

During the day, he focused intently on learning about soul tools and absorbing all the knowledge.

After dinner in the evening, I would enter the undead demiplane to practice forging and magic, as well as some other miscellaneous things that I couldn't practice in front of others.

During these few days of study, in order to arouse Huo Yuhao's enthusiasm for learning about soul tools, Xuan Ziwen showed him a good thing - an all-terrain detection soul tool.

It was a very strange object, a sphere about two meters in diameter. Inside were three seats, one in the front and two in the back. The sphere was sealed, but there were windows separated by crystals on all sides, allowing one to see outside.

Beneath the sphere are six long metal legs. Each leg is divided into three segments, with a very sharp end that can easily penetrate the soil. The second segment of each leg is raised, and the third segment connects to the bottom of the sphere. It looks quite strange.

According to the other party, as long as the operator sits inside, they are not afraid of being detected by soul beasts. They can move flexibly in various terrains.

If it encounters danger on a mountain, it can retract its long legs and release a thick layer of rubber, protecting the operator's safety as it rolls down from a height. Furthermore, the sphere itself is sealed, so it won't cause any problems even if it falls into water if necessary.

Huo Yuhao was very interested in this thing. He not only spent several days copying the core formation, but it also sparked a brand new idea in him.

Since the undead can find suitable bones to piece themselves together, why should they walk on two legs like humans, which is extremely foolish? Wouldn't it be better to just prepare eight spider legs and attach them to their pelvis?

Humans walk on two legs because they have no other choice; they can't just cut off their own legs. Why would the dead follow humans in learning to walk?

If you replace the entire lower body with spider legs, low-level skeleton soldiers can be transformed into all-terrain off-road skeleton soldiers. What if you replace the lower body of the skeleton soldier with a bone track structure?

Huo Yuhao's eyes grew brighter and brighter as he thought about it. Although replacing the lower body of the skeleton soldier with a tracked mechanism would accelerate the wear and tear on the bones, the Gate of the Dead was full of bones.

Thinking about it that way, there's not much point in preserving the skeleton soldier's torso. Wouldn't it be better to just remove it, stuff the head into the tracks, and ensure the safety of the Soul Fire?

One brilliant idea after another popped into Huo Yuhao's head, and he immediately understood why his teacher was so excited after finding a new research direction.

Half a month later, Jing Hongchen did indeed keep his promise and brought all the Shrek Academy students who came to exchange into Mingde Hall, where their respective instructors led them in their studies.

Mingde Hall is located in the heart of the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

On the surface, this is just an inconspicuous building.

But once you actually enter, Mingde Hall will truly reveal just how terrifying its technological content really is.

Entering the ordinary building, which covered an area of ​​less than 500 square meters, Xuan Ziwen led Huo Yuhao through three checkpoints.

One path is protected by Soul Masters, and the other two are protected by Soul Guidance Devices.

Under mental detection, the powerful war soul tool hidden behind the soul tool guarding the checkpoint was revealed.

If someone were to attempt a direct assault from inside the passage, the scene would certainly be quite a spectacle.

Upon entering the building, the first thing that catches the eye is twenty elevators arranged in an arc.

Oh no, a soul-guided elevator.

Xuan Ziwen led Huo Yuhao into an elevator and scanned his identity card onto a soul tool. Then, he raised his hand and grasped the metal pillar in the center of the elevator, channeling his soul power into it. The elevator immediately began to slowly descend.

The metal doors of the elevator slid open, and Xuan Ziwen nodded to Huo Yuhao before stepping out first.

This place is practically a world of metal. The hall is still curved, but as far as the eye can see, it's all metal. After exiting the elevator and walking through a short passage, the space suddenly opens up.

The scene before me was truly breathtaking. It was an incredibly spacious hall, seemingly endless. Countless lab tables were neatly arranged, stretching into the distance. Even this single horizontal row probably contained more than fifty tables.

Just as Xuan Ziwen wanted to give Huo Yuhao a little shock and rekindle his interest in soul tools, Huo Yuhao opened with a trump card.

"Teacher Xuan, is the ventilation system in your Mingde Hall reliable? If an enemy attacks by poisoning or sabotaging the ventilation system, is there enough oxygen left in Mingde Hall for everyone to evacuate?"

"Besides these twenty elevators, are there any other emergency exits or escape routes inside Mingde Hall? I'm a little uneasy about conducting research from underground."

Xuan Ziwen's face darkened. Huo Yuhao's talent for soul guidance was definitely not bad, but his focus was never on soul tools. Even when he stopped cultivating soul power, he was always thinking about other things. Only when he was in the mood would he pay a little attention to soul tools.

However, after Huo Yuhao said that, Xuan Ziwen also became worried about the ventilation system and emergency escape routes of Mingde Hall. As far as he knew, although Mingde Hall had other exits, the authority required to open the doors was extremely high, and the number of people that the passages could hold for a short period of time was also quite limited.
