Douluo Continent: The Spirit-Eyed Detective Huo Yuhao

Human life is really troublesome...

…………

"I want to buy these." Gu Yuena pushed the mountain of goods in front of the cashier.

"Ah, this..." The cashier looked embarrassed.

after an hour,

"That's a total of thirty-five gold soul coins."

"Here you go." Gu Yuena took out a heavy bag of soul coins. She was prepared for human currency, having collected many deep in the forest.

“That…little girl…”

Gu Yuena was about to leave when the cashier called her back.

"What's the problem?"

"Excuse me, what kind of antique is this?" the cashier asked, pointing to the gold soul coins in the bag.

The bag was full of gold soul coins from some unknown dynasty, and even their shapes were different from those of today.

"..."

Gu Yuena remained silent; how could she have known that humans could exchange currency so quickly?

………………

Fortunately, although the currencies are from different eras, they are made of real gold, and are even more valuable as antiques.

After a series of tests, the supermarket still refused to accept this antique...

Then Gu Yuena found the bank card that Huo Yuhao had prepared in the storage device and successfully bought the items back.

"Human life is really tiring..."

Gu Yuena sat on the sofa, turned on the TV. Thanks to the efforts of many electric soul masters, the soul guide TV was now able to play clear color pictures and had dozens of exciting channels.

"Let's start by learning about humans from this." Gu Yuena opened a bag of spicy snacks and a bottle of soda, intending to take a break. ...

……

"Hey, guess what?"

"What's wrong?"

"That Title Douluo, he even smashed his soul core!"

"Hi!"

A burst of canned laughter came from the television.

"Hahahaha..." Gu Yuena laughed heartily, her voice as clear and melodious as a silver bell.

She was chewing on spicy snacks and finishing a bottle of soda in a couple of gulps when she suddenly woke up.

"Ah! What am I doing? I should be doing something important."

Gu Yuena shook her head, reminding herself that she was there to observe humans and that she also had the important mission of reviving the soul beasts.

"Is it the effect of this soda?" She picked up the empty soda bottle, which still contained some residual spiritual energy.

“There’s a kind of spiritual energy mixed in that makes people feel joyful, relaxed, and lazy.” With her cultivation level, Gu Yuena could tell at a glance that Huo Yuhao’s food was seasoned with spiritual energy.

"A very ingenious method of using mental power, but this alone shouldn't be enough to affect me..." She examined it more closely, "This is..."

"It's actually life force!" Gu Yuena exclaimed in surprise. These foods actually contained a very small amount of life force!

“It’s not just food.” She looked out the window at the sky, where the invisible magic circle that enveloped the entire Shrek City was constantly radiating a trace of life force.

Although few in number, its strength lies in its continuity.

Moreover, they were deliberately made into an easily absorbed form, making them countless times more convenient than refining them yourself.

No wonder she felt so comfortable as soon as she entered the city.

Vitality is also very important to Gu Yuena, otherwise she wouldn't have stayed at the Lake of Life.

"No matter what, I need to think about what to do next..." Gu Yuena thought to herself.

Suddenly, a burst of loud music started playing. It turned out that the game console next to us had been turned on, and the screen lit up with a dazzling yet strange image.

"What is this thing that belongs to humans?" Gu Yuena walked closer to the screen. She didn't know much about game consoles, but she saw messages like "Help!" and "Save me!" playing on it.

"Should we save him? How does this thing work?" She was temporarily drawn to this abrupt thing that interrupted her thoughts.

She lightly touched the controller, and the game interface instantly changed.

"Can I choose my career?"

"Hero, warrior... well, I'll choose the mage."

Gu Yuena chose to continue the game, and after an animation, the screen flashed... the payment interface.

"Click here to buy divine gear for only 648 copper soul coins and save your teammates."

"Huh? Do I need copper soul coins?" Gu Yuena was a little unsure what to do.

"Help! Help me! I don't want to die..." a teammate on the screen shouted.

"Well, let me try out how to use this human's electric soul guide." Gu Yuena made up her mind and clicked the payment option on the screen.

……

……

"Teammate! Where's your teammate? Help!"

In the dimly lit room, Gu Yuena munched on potato chips and called out, her fingers flying across the keyboard.

The sounds of slashing and hacking echoed continuously on the game screen.

"Damn it, can't you cast a healing spell? You've been holding onto it all this time?" Gu Yuena launched a skillful attack, sending an angry emoticon to her teammate as she did so.

"That 'glowing butterfly' on the other side is too weak, but the guy nicknamed 'Spirit Eye Detective' is quite powerful."

Only after the words "Battle lost" appeared did she slam the controller to the ground.

"Ah! I was so close to slaying the dragon! The princess is waiting for me to rescue her. What a bunch of stupid teammates!"

Gu Yuena lay down on the floor. To be honest, the entire room, except for the small area where she could lie down, was completely filled with garbage.

"Sure enough, I still prefer 'Red and Green Plumber' to 'Soul Master Dragon Quest,' and that new 'Contra' game is pretty good too." She took another sip of soda while lying down.

Is it because I'm also a dragon?

"Yes, I'm a dragon too..."

"..."

"Wait! What am I doing?!" Gu Yuena sat up abruptly, scratching her messy silver hair.

"Gu Yuena, Gu Yuena, have you forgotten your important mission? Although the revival of soul beasts seems to be no longer a concern, we can't let things continue like this..." she warned herself, forcefully smashing the empty soda bottle on the floor.

With a beep, a teammate messaged again, "Want to start another game?"

"Then... let's do it one last time." Gu Yuena leaned back in front of the screen and picked up the controller.

…………

snow country,

Wang Dong: "Yuhao, left, left, hurry up! The other side is so useless, I always manage to wipe out their stats."

Huo Yuhao: "Coming, coming."

Wang Dong: "Ah, I'm dead, I don't want to play anymore."

"That guy on the other side, nicknamed 'Silver Dragon Soul,' is so strong. He was a complete newbie who couldn't play before, and he's become this good in just a few days." Wang Dong put down the controller and exclaimed in amazement. "Hehe, bringing the game console along was definitely the right decision. And the soda that's been chilled in the snow tastes even better."

"You've been so lazy because you've been drinking too much. Even though Dream Soda is delicious, you have to drink it in moderation," Huo Yuhao laughed. "Get up, let's play another round with the other side."

"What surprised me even more was that we've come all the way to the far north, yet we're still able to connect with the people in Shrek City."

"Haha, that's a trade secret," Huo Yuhao said mysteriously.

This is because the network connected to this game is based on the vast divine consciousness of Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, which can almost cover the entire Douluo Continent.

"This is exhausting! So much information is flowing through my brain every second, even though I'm a spirit now and don't have a brain," Tianmeng Ice Silkworm exclaimed in the Sea of ​​Spirit.

"Haha, Brother Tianmeng, you've gone to a lot of trouble. I'll take over your position when I officially reach the Divine Consciousness level," Huo Yuhao comforted him.

Chapter 100 Gu Yue, Na'er, the Second Year

"Gu Yue Na, Gu Yue Na! How could you fall so low! Have you forgotten the human observation plan we set up before?" The Dragon God roared.

This can't go on any longer.

After a few days,

"Soda tastes so good."

Gu Yuena gently shook the bottle, "This stuff is even more intoxicating than wine..."

The nimble toes swung rapidly across the game console controller.

"Weak? Please, you're really weak. I could beat you with my feet. Haha, if you're bad at the game, don't play." The silver-haired girl mocked, her manners extremely poor.

"Ah, I'm done drinking." Gu Yuena stood up, preparing to go out and buy some more.

She wasn't indulging in games and snacks; in just these few days, by absorbing the refined vitality from the environment and food, her internal injuries were healing much faster than they had in the Lake of Life.

She had also observed the reason for this: at the center of the city-protecting formation, there was a piece of living gold placed at the eye of the formation.

Actually, it was half a heart. Huo Yuhao cut his own heart in half, and the other half was still hidden inside his body.

Although the origin of the Life Gold is unknown, it is far too generous of them to share this treasure with the world, Gu Yuena thought.

"In any case, with this grand formation, Shrek City can practically be called a cultivation paradise. If we could talk to Shrek about expanding the formation to include the Star Dou Forest and also utilize the life force of the Lake of Life, that would be a good option." Gu Yuena thought that this would be a win-win situation for both sides, and the humans would probably agree.

"I'll talk to Huo Yuhao about this when he gets back." Gu Yuena was satisfied with her idea, took her bank card, and went out.

"I am not addicted to human life, well, absolutely not."
