Douluo Continent: The Spirit-Eyed Detective Huo Yuhao

………………

A grove of trees on the shore of Poseidon Lake,

“Junior brother, look closely, this is the inspiration you gave me when you invented the generator last time.”

Beibei's expression hardened, and she summoned the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Martial Soul, with blue and white arcs of electricity flashing from her arm to her fingertips.

Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong, and Tang Ya stood to the side, clearly feeling the terrifying energy contained within that arm. The constantly flashing electric light illuminated their faces, making them appear and disappear.

Then Beibei reached into her pocket and pulled out a metal coin.

"Yuhao, you told me before about the principles and relationship between electricity and magnetism. I've been thinking about it ever since, and then..."

He flicked the coin into the air with his thumb with a clink.

The coin spun and landed on the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex's claw.

"That's probably the feeling."

No sooner had he finished speaking than a beam of light crackling with arcs of electricity shot out like a spear, its power surpassing that of a fixed-position soul-guided cannon.

A loud whooshing sound cut through the air, and Wang Dong and Tang Ya both covered their ears tightly.

As the long, spear-like beam of light swept across, rows of trees on both sides were toppled and tilted, and the soil on the ground was turned upside down and charred black by the electricity.

The beam of light continued until it reached the surface of Lake Neptune, stirring up large waves and water vapor.

The bursting lake water fell like rain, waking the stunned crowd.

"Beibei, you...you...when did you acquire such a powerful special move!" Tang Ya was both surprised and delighted.

"Actually, this is the first time I've used it. Before, I had only imagined and practiced it." Beibei herself was also surprised.

"Wow...so powerful! This attack is so strong it could practically pierce through the Sea God Lake and reach the inner courtyard." Wang Dong was astonished by the power of this move. At the same time, he wondered when he could have such a powerful ultimate move. If he could, he could probably roam freely anywhere.

"It's an electromagnetic cannon."

Huo Yuhao used his mental detection to observe the entire destructive path of the "electromagnetic cannon" with great interest.

He then exclaimed excitedly, "This is a railgun! Senior Brother, you are a genius at using electricity! I've decided that I must tailor a cultivation technique just for you."

"Is that so?" Bei Bei was suddenly praised by his junior brother and scratched his head shyly. Compared with his junior brother, he felt that his once self-proclaimed clever brain was far inferior.

"No need to be modest, Senior Brother. You've given me a wonderful new inspiration. I want to thank you properly." After saying that, Huo Yuhao muttered something about electricity and magnetism and left on his own.

"This child, once he starts thinking, he doesn't care about anything else." Tang Ya shook her head helplessly.

"Well... Teacher Xiaoya, Senior Brother, I'll be going now too, goodbye." After saying goodbye, Wang Dong jogged to catch up with Huo Yuhao.

On the way to the Soul Guidance Department,

"This guy, can't he see me at all?" Wang Dong followed behind Huo Yuhao, but he acted as if he didn't see her, keeping his head down and walking forward.

Even when she held her hand out in front of him, he didn't even blink.

"Yuhao... is he really this passionate when he's deep in thought?" Wang Dong exclaimed, marveling at how different intelligent people are.

When will I be this smart?

Although Yuhao forced her to read many books and learn a lot of knowledge that she would never have encountered before, she felt that she hadn't changed much.

Perhaps I've become a little smarter?

"Is it smart to learn the Sun Fist? Maybe I can create my own soul skill..." Wang Dong had his own thoughts.

Soul Guidance System Laboratory

"This is!" Fan Yu and He Caitou both exclaimed in surprise upon seeing Huo Yuhao's current state.

"What's wrong with Yuhao?" Wang Dong asked, puzzled.

“You don’t know this, but the last time Yuhao was in this state, he invented an electronic communicator. Before that, he also had batteries and generators,” He Caitou explained.

“We call this state, which seems to be an epiphany, ‘the birth of a miracle,’” Fan Yu nodded.

"Is it really that exaggerated?" Wang Dong was speechless at the strange name. Moreover, she seemed to see this situation often, when Huo Yuhao was writing and drawing on the opposite bed, almost every night.

Is this an epiphany? No way, shouldn't epiphanies be much rarer? How can it happen so frequently?

Just then, Huo Yuhao began to write.

Chapter 26 Shrek Daily, Douluo Weekly, and Painkillers

"No, the design is overdone."

Huo Yuhao frowned as he looked at the blueprints he had just drawn.

He had just experienced a burst of inspiration, his mind racing with ideas that he simply couldn't contain.

After finishing the drawing, he realized that he had gone too far with the design; this thing was not yet achievable in the current Douluo Continent.

"Let's put it away for now."

He stuffed the blueprints into his storage soul tool.

"Yuhao, what did you design? Why did you put it away again?" Fanyu asked disappointedly, having been looking forward to seeing it.

"Something that can connect the entire Douluo Continent," Huo Yuhao said. "It can also accelerate the distribution of our products from Shrek City to the whole world."

"If they're connected, isn't Douluo Continent originally a single entity?" Fan Yu couldn't understand for a moment.

"Teacher Fanyu, is what I mentioned before done?" Huo Yuhao asked.

"It's been finished for a while now and has been moved to our new factory. But to be honest, I still don't understand your purpose in making this." Fan Yu pointed outside. "Want to go take a look?"

"Of course, let's go now."

As soon as he finished speaking, Fan Yu, displaying his full Soul Douluo cultivation, picked up the group and flew towards the city.

The setting sun shone into the newly renovated factory, where rows of unfamiliar electronic devices were displayed. The strong smell of ink mixed with the scent of paper and wood permeated the air.

"What are these?" Wang Dong covered his nose; the smell here was really unpleasant.

"These are... printing presses."

Upon seeing the machine that matched his expectations, Huo Yuhao's eyes lit up with joy.

"A printing press?"

Wang Dong knew about printing. Many of the books she read, as well as those collected by Shrek Academy and other academies and Soul Master sects, were printed manually. But manual printing was more than enough for Soul Masters to use, so why would so many machines be needed?

"Haha, to meet the quantity I need by manual printing, I'm afraid it would require the hands of a Title Douluo," Huo Yuhao laughed.

"Account ban... Yuhao, how many are you going to print?" He Caitou was shocked.

"How much? I don't know either. It's probably enough to satisfy the reading needs of everyone in the Douluo Continent," Huo Yuhao said casually.

"What's the purpose?" He Caitou admired his junior brother's ambition. If he hadn't had that almost certain death for revenge, he probably would have followed Huo Yuhao forever in his quest for the "scientific" path he spoke of.

"Purpose? Of course, it's to make it easier for me to explore the world," Huo Yuhao said matter-of-factly. "Even if I'm incredibly smart, I only have one brain. To explore the mysteries of the entire world, my energy, speed, and efficiency are all limited. Only when everyone in the world can start thinking, utilizing the collective wisdom of the world, and combining the wisdom of the past, present, and future, can I acquire more knowledge more quickly..."

That's what science is all about.

"I thought you were going to say something about the greater good of all mankind," Fan Yu said, both amused and exasperated.

"I won't make such empty promises. Perhaps many people will benefit from my actions, but that's just a natural consequence of scientific development. My original intention has always been my own desire to explore everything," Huo Yuhao said, waving his hand.

“You always manage to utter such outrageous statements, yet you always seem capable of doing them.” Fan Yu was very confident in her student. “Besides, this printing press isn’t just for printing books, is it?”

As the manufacturer, Fan Yu naturally knew that Huo Yuhao had made him do more than just print paper machines.

“Yes, my printing plant not only prints newspapers and books, but also plays an important role in printing low-level soul tool arrays with low precision.” Huo Yuhao reached out and gently stroked the huge machine, “so that low-level soul tools can be mass-produced.”

From that day on, newsstands and bookstores of all sizes appeared on the streets of Shrek City, and some convenience stores, supermarkets and restaurants under the name of the Huo Group also began to sell newspapers and various books and magazines.

In addition to food delivery and express delivery, Mengtian Logistics has also added newspaper delivery services.

Unlike the exorbitant prices of the past, these books, which even include a great deal of knowledge about martial spirits, are now sold at a much lower price, much cheaper than grilled fish from a roadside stall.

Among them, the most popular were Shrek Daily and Douluo Weekly.

The Shrek Daily published various interesting stories about Soul Masters, allowing many ordinary people without Soul Power to access information about these masters.

"So that's what those Soul Masters are like, huh? They seem no different from us." Sometimes I'd have that thought.

The Douluo Weekly is divided into several sections, including science, literature, martial spirits, and rare treasures, with extremely rich content.

Meanwhile, advertisements for various products began to fly everywhere in Shrek City, plastered all over the place.

In Huo Yuhao's words, this is called bombardment marketing.

At the entrance of the student dormitory,

Moon sat leisurely in his self-rocking wheelchair, reading the newspaper, while a radio played soothing music beside him.

Enjoy a peaceful and contented life in old age.

Although the old injuries and chronic ailments have not disappeared, they don't hurt as much now.

"We have to thank that amazing little guy for all of this..." Moon put down his newspaper and looked up at the azure sky.

He took a small medicine bottle out of his pocket, poured out a pill, and swallowed it.

"Take one painkiller every morning, noon and night."

That's what he said at the time. Mu En didn't have much hope at first. What use could medicine from a little guy who only had one ring back then and only two rings now be? Even if it was poison, his innate deadly poison hadn't killed him back then, so what kind of strange poison could kill a level 99 Limit Douluo?

The child was kind, so he didn't refuse and immediately ate one.

As a result, the effect was naturally quite good.

Although his physical condition had not improved, and although the malevolent energy of the dragon pill was still raging within him...

But he's not in pain anymore!

For years, I have been fighting against the resentment day and night, constantly tormented by pain, unable to sleep well, and unable to straighten my back.
