Douluo: On Becoming a God through Science

elder brother?

When You Chen heard this title, he couldn't help but twitch his lips. What, are you planning to change your sacrifice target in this life?

"I'm 35, how old are you?"

"I—" Xiao Wu's eyes rolled around, and after a long pause, she pouted and said in dissatisfaction, "6 years old."

Hearing this, You Chen spoke emotionlessly as if reading aloud: "Wow, there is a 29-year age difference. It seems that our parents are still strong in their old age."

Xiao Wu's braids drooped down immediately: "Okay, uncle is uncle."

"very good."

You Chen nodded, with some double meaning in his words, and then he picked up the grilled fish from the grill and took a bite.

The emanating fragrance and crisp sound made Xiao Wu's eyes widen instantly.

You Chen's mouth curled up immediately, and he blew on the burnt fish, saying calmly, "I told you, this is the most perfect state!"

That attitude immediately made Xiao Wu so angry that her teeth itched.

"Okay, there's not much grilled fish left, I want to eat it myself. I'll give you some candy."

"Tsk, candy again, are you really thinking you're teasing a child?"

Although Xiao Wu was being stubborn, she very skillfully took the beautifully wrapped candy thrown to her by You Chen.

Over the past few days, You Chen would feed Xiao Wu from time to time, and now almost the entire box of "friendly premium candy" had gone into Xiao Wu's stomach.

Silent all night.

After Xiao Wu fell asleep in the tent, You Chen was still standing outside the tent by the campfire, looking up at the starry sky.

And so it came to the early morning hours, the time point for task refresh.

Ding.

Looking at the first few words of the task, You Chen already showed a happy smile.

"Sure enough, Yu Xiaogang, I've been waiting for you!"

【Task: Yu Xiaogang, a theoretical scholar from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan, is resentful of you for publicly denying his theory of "The Ten Core Competitiveness of Spirits", and plans to use the power of Bibi Dong, the Saintess of the Spirit Hall, to target you. How can you tolerate this? How can you sit and wait for death in the face of such a person who relies on power! ?

You have two ways to complete this task.

First, those who rely on power to show off their power must be made to suffer the pain of being oppressed by a more powerful power!

Secondly, after you publish a truly reliable research result, there will be great scholars to debate for you! Completely crush Yu Xiaogang in theory, prove your theory to Yu Xiaogang, and make her convinced!

Complete the task in the first way and get the basic reward. Complete the task in the second way and get the extra reward. Complete both ways at the same time and get the ultimate reward on top of that! 】

[Basic rewards: ten intermediate nutrition pills, intermediate soul power pills, intermediate strength pills, intermediate speed pills, intermediate soul power amplification pills, and two "flashes of inspiration"]

[Extra rewards: an intermediate experience pill, a soul ring age enhancement card (thousand years), one "seeing the origin"]

[Ultimate Reward: The second soul ring with the best adaptive age, …]

Before You Chen could finish reading the description of the ultimate reward, suddenly... the last line of text became violently distorted and blurred.

[Ultimate Reward: The adaptive best text is finally finalized after more than ten seconds of text distortion.

[Ultimate Reward: Adaptive Best Year Soul Bone (upper limit of 100,000 years)]

"..."

You Chen was silent for a moment, and then he muttered to himself: "Sure enough, the previous situation was a system bug?"

Although no problem with the timeline was discovered, the system did become smarter in this regard.

Well... maybe it can't be said to be smart, but the previous situation of directly defying the rules of the world really hurt the system, so maybe it has learned its lesson?

However, You Chen had never expected that the same good thing would happen again.

He had already prepared for the possibility that there would be no spirit ring rewards in the future.

What he cared more about was whether the route he had envisioned could go smoothly.

During the mission, Yu Xiaogang's appearance was not as unexpected as Kendall's, but an expected scene, which obviously made You Chen very satisfied.

The reward for a task is determined by the difficulty of the task as determined by the system.

For example, although there is a purple cardinal behind Ye Han, the little fights between classmates will not lead to the death of the cardinal, so the difficulty of the task itself and the hidden risks are not high.

If it weren't for the novice mission, the rewards would be mediocre.

If the bishop behind him is a protective person, then the mission reward will be raised to a certain extent. This information was confirmed by You Chen based on the information from so many previous missions.

On the contrary, Yu Xiaogang's strength was poor, but at that time, the Saint Bibi Dong stood behind him! The family behind him, especially his father, actually still cared about his children.

This means that Yu Xiaogang's level in the system task rating will not be too low.

And what about You Chen at that time?

He's just a 12-year-old kid with nothing!

Based on his own inference, You Chen has guessed the related tasks of Yu Xiaogang, and the rewards will not be too bad.

but……

"Even so, the reward seems a bit high, right?"

You Chen shook his head and no longer considered the fact that the reward was slightly beyond his expectations.

Objectively speaking, this task is indeed difficult.

The system does not presuppose a future to judge the difficulty of a task.

For example, in the future Qianxunji will worry that Bibi Dong will be abducted by Yu Xiaoang and will obstruct their relationship.

The system will not take such future conditions favorable to Youchen into account in the current task, thereby reducing the difficulty level of the task and deducting rewards.

When the time traveler You Chen arrives, everything in the future will be reshuffled. It is impossible to set the difficulty of the task based on something that has not happened as an absolute condition.

The system will only determine the difficulty and reward of the task based on the current situation, the comprehensive capabilities of the task objectives, the overall capability gap between the two parties, and the conditions for task completion.

Therefore, it is reasonable that the reward for this task is higher.

There were new terms in the mission rewards this time, so You Chen naturally paid more attention to it.

“Illuminating the Origin”, its description is no less than that of “a flash of inspiration”.

This is undoubtedly another reward in the "special" category.

Its effect is complicated to explain, but it allows soul masters to feel the origin of their martial souls more deeply... To sum it up in one sentence, this is a reward that can greatly improve the soul master's understanding of his own martial soul, thereby improving his control over the origin of his martial soul.

'This is absolutely great stuff!'

It seems that because I signed the contract early, I didn’t know when the new book was dropped from the recommended list. It’s a bit annoying…

Chapter 39: Arrival at Nottingham

You Chen's eyes were fiery.

If "a flash of inspiration" is a panacea, a reward that can definitely be used, then "illuminating the origin" is definitely worth waiting for even if it wastes a few years. It can be said to be a must-get task reward!

As long as the effect is not insignificant, and the "quantity" required for quantitative change to lead to qualitative change is not too exaggerated, its value is definitely no less than a ten thousand year soul bone that is extremely suitable for a soul master!

The degree of control over the original power of the martial soul is the watershed that distinguishes the truly strong.

Throughout history, there have been many soul masters with lower-quality martial souls who, through their extremely high control over their original power, were able to use their power very efficiently and unleash combat power far beyond the quality of their own martial souls.

According to the records of the Spirit Hall, there was once a Soul King who used a mid-quality wooden sword spirit and killed a defensive Soul King with a top-quality spirit with a single sword strike!

But You Chen is You Chen after all. He quickly suppressed his inner restlessness and observed the mission information.

As expected, both quest completion conditions are now in an incomplete state.

It's hard to say whether he used a higher power to oppress Yu Xiaogang. Can we say that he used Qianxunji's power to drive Yu Xiaogang out of the Spirit Hall? It seems that he can say that, but it doesn't seem to have much to do with him.

But if we talk about completely crushing Yu Xiaogang in theory, You Chen would certainly have done it long ago.

But just like the previous task of "making a female classmate look at him differently", he did not complete it as soon as he received it.

Based on You Chen's current understanding of the system, this kind of task completion condition related to the subjective consciousness of the task target does not necessarily require him to run in front of the other party and make the other party look at him differently.

For example, he suddenly completed a "look at the other person differently" task before he even met the other person.

Judging from the result afterwards, as long as the other party had such an idea after he accepted the task, the condition was met.

As for this kind of "proving the theory" and "theoretical crushing", it can be discussed in two situations.

One is that Yu Xiaogang inexplicably remembered the fact that she was not as good as You Chen, and started to do Yu Yu, and then she considered the mission accomplished.

The other option is that You Chen needs to have another theoretical debate with Yu Xiaoang, causing Yu Xiaoang to feel humiliated and frustrated once again.

But the first type of task, "power oppression" needs to be carried out in a practical way.

Just like some "defeat the target" tasks, even if You Chen has defeated the opponent before, he still needs to "defeat" him again.

As for how to successfully complete the task, he already had a plan in mind.

“Is this Nottingham?”

Xiao Wu looked at the gate of Notting City and sighed.

After stopping and walking along the way, it took the two of them a week to finally reach their destination.

In a sense, this journey is more like a picnic than a journey.

You Chen silently glanced at Xiao Wu and said, "Although I am your uncle in name now, don't think of using my name to cause trouble in Notting City. I know you are a playful and erratic person. If something really goes wrong, I won't care about you."

"Huh? Is this how you act as an uncle?"

Xiao Wu's eyes widened, and she spoke from You Chen's perspective: "Even if it's fake, no one else will know. If your niece is being bullied outside and you, as an uncle, don't even dare to fart, won't you be looked down upon?"

"It doesn't matter. Anyway, anyone who is worthy of my attention can see through this 'uncle and nephew' statement at a glance. Why should I care about the opinions of those who are not worth caring about? Giving you such a title will only save you a little trouble, so that no one will bully you. But this is not a weapon for you to bully others." You Chen explained.

"Tsk." Xiao Wu curled her lips and kicked the stones on the side of the road.

"Oh, I think I've never told you."

You Chen seemed to have just remembered something important. He stopped walking towards the main gate of Notting City and turned to look at Xiao Wu, who was confused. "I was driven to this remote place because I offended a big shot. I usually keep a low profile. I'm afraid that big shot will find something to blame me for and use it against me."

"You offended a big shot? Tsk tsk, you said you were here to do business, but it turns out you were kicked out. Uncle, you are so pitiful."

Xiao Wu tilted her head: "Speaking of which, it seems that you have joined some faction, uncle?"

You Chen nodded: "Yes. I am from the Spirit Hall."

The truth of this shock made Xiao Wu's body suddenly stiffen.

……

"Master Youchen, this is your steward's token and uniform. You must report here at eight o'clock every morning. You will have a two-hour break at noon. If there is nothing important in the afternoon, you can leave work at five o'clock at the earliest. Also, our branch hall has a rotation system for rest, and the specific schedule is..."

Inside the Spirit Hall, a young deacon in white was explaining the precautions to You Chen in a very disciplined manner.

"By the way, do you want me to take you to your dormitory here?"

After the introduction, the deacon in white asked questions.

You Chen shook his head: "No need, I have asked someone to buy a property in Nottingham City, and I will live there from now on. The specific address is (……), you can come to me in case of emergency, please write it down."

The white-robed deacon showed no surprise when he heard about the real estate. Although he seemed a little rich as he had bought the house in advance before coming, with the financial resources of a soul master, it was not too much pressure to buy a few properties in Notting City.

Those who can become yellow-robed deacons are at least soul masters, and strength is only one of the foundations.

Even a large number of branch hall masters in low-level cities are the yellow-robed deacons.

This is the case with the master of their Notting City branch temple.

Even though You Chen suffered an extremely humiliating "exile" in the eyes of the Spirit Hall members of this hall, in a small place like Notting City, the Yellow-robed Deacon was already a big shot.

The people in this hall think that You Chen is a "tiger in plain water", but taking the white-robed deacon in front of them as an example, they see You Chen as a "dragon swimming in shallow water".

Logically speaking, when a "big shot" like You Chen comes, the master of the branch hall should personally prepare the bed to welcome him.

But in reality, they only sent a deacon in white to handle the matter in a simple and official manner.

That's pretty much it.

However, You Chen had already anticipated this situation, so he would not take this so-called "show of power" too seriously.

"You should have noticed that this little girl is my niece. She came all the way here to rely on me. Do you have any connections to help me arrange for her to enroll in school here?"

After finishing his business, You Chen patted Xiao Wu's head, who was unusually silent, and asked the deacon in white.
