Chapter 201: Minors are forbidden to watch? Doesn't work for me
"With his identity, he just sat in a balloon, and he was not afraid of some accidents and accidentally fell into a meatloaf......" Meng Hongchen whispered.
"No, it's really not, people must follow the strong to protect it, don't bother us."
Judging from the performance of his top-level martial soul like Zihuang Annihilating Heavenly Dragon, Xu Tianran's beep is now a Contra Douluo, and no matter how bad it is, he is also a high-level soul saint.
The fact that a balloon burst and was killed is still ridiculous no matter how you look at it.
And just under the gaze of the soldiers who were looking forward to it, especially from the soldiers, who wanted Xu Tianran to hurry down and let them go back to rest, the huge observation balloon painted with the royal family emblem of the sun and moon finally landed slowly on the landing field not far in front of the audience.
The officer who had just fired a firework pressed a button, and two gaps appeared on both sides of the half-body wall that had been tightly protected in the passenger area, and they slowly landed on the ground under the traction of the hydraulic rod, forming a smooth passage with a small slope.
Well...... It looks like it's handicapped accessible when the bus stops at a stop.
Xu Tianran changed into a wheelchair with a higher technology content today, and gently stroked the sensor on the left armrest, and the wheelchair immediately turned and drove automatically, allowing him to operate the wheelchair alone in front of the audience.
As the crown prince with a lot of competitors eyeing him, Xu Tianran may not usually care if someone pushes his wheelchair around from behind, but in today's occasion for countless important people, he still wants to show his strong side as much as possible to appease people's hearts.
In front of everyone's eyes, it is too timid to let the people behind push themselves around, and it is inevitable that people will be worried......
He also has to try his best to reassure people's hearts, so that everyone can see that his body as a prince is fine, and his life will be long, and he is worthy of entrusting the future.
The officers and other entourages who came with Xu Tianran in the balloon kept a certain distance and followed him, not only so as not to steal the limelight from Xu Tianran, but also to ensure that they could react in time when someone was holding a murder weapon such as "Natural Cut" and wanted to assassinate him.
The various light and dark sentinels arranged in the entire training ground are unknown, and there are several Titled Douluo present, even so, it is impossible to guarantee that everything is foolproof; If the hostile forces brought in a Rank 9 Soul Guide Shell to detonate here, the Sun and Moon Empire's soul guide research team would have to stagnate for fifty years, to say the least.
Fortunately, as Xu Tianran smiled and manipulated his wheelchair to pass in front of the audience one by one, he kept waving his hand, and from time to time he talked a few words with the carefully selected audience representing all walks of life, and there was no chaos.
When passing by Huo Yuhao's seat in the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, Xu Tianran raised his arms high and said in a loud voice full of emotion: "Everyone has worked hard! I thank you for the military and civilians of the empire! β
And the audience responded neatly according to the content of the previous rehearsal: "Hello prince! β
After singing and performing in harmony, Xu Tianran also had a cordial conversation with Ma Rulong, who was selected as a representative, and the four ancestors from the Douluo Three Kingdoms and Shrek's last competition as reserve members, and praised them fiercely with beautiful words that don't want money.
The Shrek exchange students in the audience had different expressions when they saw this, and the group of teachers who had no work in the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy wanted to arrange for them to go up to talk with Xu Tianran at the beginning to express their gratitude to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for their care, but fortunately, they were pushed back by Teacher Fan Yu.
If anyone dares to go up, it is estimated that they will not have to go back to the academy in this life, and wait to contribute to the construction of the Sun and Moon Empire for the rest of their lives like the four young students now.
As Xu Tianran, who looked very good today, passed through the audience, Huo Yuhao also used his mental detection to constantly observe the situation of the audience present today.
East, West, South, North, Middle, Party, Government, Military and Civilian Studies; The Sun and Moon Empire didn't have the first, but at least the other four groups of people had a bunch of representatives present.
The military and police gendarmes representing the national armed forces are also scattered in various places to maintain stability.
And the people who attended on behalf of the Douluo Three Kingdoms and Shrek...... The face is basically not very good-looking, at most when Xu Tianran passes by, he shows a perfunctory smile.
However, when Huo Yuhao's spiritual detection swept to a group of relatively special people, he couldn't help but stop temporarily.
That group of people is quite extraordinary in terms of status and wealth based on their clothesβof course, there can be no ordinary people who can appear here today, and even if they are dressed plainly, they are basically pretended.
But the paradox is that this group of people are wearing all kinds of masks on their faces to hide their identities - according to the Douluo Continent Mask Law, as long as they wear masks, others will ignore features such as hair color and posture, and they will never be able to identify their identities unless the plot requires them.
Such a cover-up approach naturally attracts a lot of attention on such occasions, and the best explanation is that even if it attracts some unnecessary attention, it is much better than being directly discovered.
Huo Yuhao, who knew the inside story, immediately thought of those "representatives of public opinion" in the western frontier of the Heavenly Soul Empire - seeing that although they seemed to be a little reluctant, they still had to applaud, especially when Xu Tianran passed by, they were about to clap their palms red, it was really embarrassing for them.
"I don't know how many princes and generals there are, and those who are full of food and support want to be independent? Trick the devil to go. β
While Huo Yuhao stared at the group of people from the Western Xinjiang who were pulled over, he also decided to wait until the end of the show today to ask Ye Guyi if her evil soul master's detection radar had any response.
After all, as the royal black gloves and latrines of Xu Tianran and even the Sun and Moon royal family, the Holy Spirit Sect is simply like the existence of Emperor Xiaochuan, and any vicious incident will inevitably make people deduct the pot on them as soon as possible.
And after talking cordially with the audience, Xu Tianran's next step is to inspect the army on behalf of the emperor - although the soul master group seems to be well-equipped, in fact, there is a generation difference in combat effectiveness with ordinary armies, but in terms of momentum, it is far from comparable to the standing army with a large number of people.
Xu Tianran's face in a wheelchair had a little more smug taste of spring breeze, and at this time, he had indeed reached a new high point of power in his life - although the elite division in front of him under various banners was not loyal to him, Xu Tianran had begun to regard the army as something he had to put his strength in.
This is also a kind of inevitability, without the support of the army, you still want to sit on the throne, dream of it.
It's just that although the banners raised by that army are quite encouraging in the eyes of the audience on the side of the Sun and Moon Empire, from the meaning in the eyes of the attendees of the Douluo Three Kingdoms and Shrek Academy, it seems that they don't care much about it, and even have a lot of contempt.
A group of defeated generals, the more banners they have, the more empty they become. If the combat effectiveness of these units is really at the level that they boast, how did they lose the last war?
"It seems that some people are not very convinced, I don't know what to be proud of with their performance that they haven't taken advantage of all these years."
Meng Hongchen sensed all kinds of meanings in the eyes of those foreigners through Huo Yuhao's spiritual detection and sharing, and couldn't help but feel a little sour.
Huo Yuhao was paying attention to the performance of Xu Tianran, who was holding Shang Fang's sword and brushing his sense of existence, and explained nonchalantly:
"The experience of winning the last war is not necessarily a valuable legacy, and sometimes it becomes more of a drag."
On the contrary, former losers are more motivated to sum up the experience of failure and find innovative ways to break the situation. And this change is combined with the dilemma of the victors who continue to cling to the past experience and try to continue to strengthen the original advantage......"
"One possible outcome is that the winner of the previous war will instead fall into an avalanche in the new war because he does not adapt to the new form of warfare."
The Maginot Line is such a product, the Ming Dou Mountain Defense Line painstakingly managed by the Star Luo Empire...... It's not much better.
Especially in the original book, the gathering of five hundred soul saints and above of the Star Luo Empire who had been shocked for a long time in the original book attacked the Mingdou Mountain Range, and was harvested by Ye Xishui, who was waiting for the rabbit.
In the back row of the audience, among the exchange students of Shrek Academy who were mixed with other Sun and Moon Royal Soul Master Academies, Ning Tian was also holding a pair of binoculars, observing the equipment of the Sun and Moon Empire's army.
No matter how elite the armor and weapons of those ordinary soldiers were, Ning Tian didn't care. Ten thousand years ago, when resisting the Martial Spirit Palace, the Heaven Dou Empire was able to mobilize a million troops at every turn, and no matter how elite the cold weapon was, it would eventually become obsolete.
She only cared about what new things had been added to those soul masters.
When he saw those soul guide cannons on the ground and all kinds of individual equipment that were relatively small in size, Ning Tian's brows couldn't help but wrinkle.
There were many things she had seen for the first time, and the usual teaching content in the academy did not include these things at all.
And as far as she knows, some sects really want to get their hands on things Mingdetang relies on the fact that there are no other suppliers outside, so they are reluctant to export and put forward unbelievable conditions.
The Nine Treasure Liuli Sect has always been suspicious of the new equipment that Mingdetang constantly boasts and sells that is not even available in the auction hall in the Douluo Three Kingdoms, and this time it is also one of her tasks to take the opportunity to inspect the equipment of the Sun and Moon Empire's Soul Master Group.
After all, as long as Mingdetang did not carry out false publicity, the Nine Treasure Liuli Sect spent a lot of money to get it, and found that the effect of those text descriptions was actually not suitable for him, so he could only suffer this loss.
Watching the disabled prince inspect the army like a dog, Ning Tian couldn't help but shake his head.
She really didn't like this cripple very much, and she had read countless people in the Nine Treasure Liuli Sect before, and her first impression of this cripple was not very good.
It doesn't matter that there are too many elements of his feminine face, his eyes that are well disguised but can't get rid of a bit of gloomy and ruthless background after all, make Ning Tian feel that this can't be a good person.
This is not wrong, Xu Tianran is ruthless enough to be a competitor and is still in the normal struggle for the position, but the long-term physical disability actually makes it difficult for him to suffer from some ...... Psychopath.
For example, Xu Tianran's reaction after seeing Wang Dong in the original book and learning that he was his daughter from the mouth of the orange:
"Woman? If she changes into women's clothes, she must be beautiful. Xu Tianran muttered. But as he spoke, his eyes suddenly became violent. β
And the impotent rage of "ifγIf I hadn't lost the power of a man, then how many such beauties would I have"?
So much so that Huo Yuhao even saw Xu Tianran as the protagonist who wrote about his unification of the continent and became a generation of emperors, and after relying on soul guide technology to treat dysfunction, he included the beauties of the world in the harem, and engaged in wine pools, meat forests, and sea and sky feasts.
But Ning Tian was destined to be disappointed on this first day, because when Xu Tianran finished reviewing the army and making a stinky and long speech, the soul master group only fired a few symbolic salutes, and the rest of the day was all handed over to those ordinary troops to perform various intricate formations and pig rush charges.
Well, at least the formation change of the Standing Army of the Sun and Moon Empire still looks quite flexible, and there is no need to rely on the eunuchs of the prison army to convey the formation map issued by the emperor so that the generals below can strictly implement it meticulously.
It looked magnificent, but Ning Tian knew that the only value of these armies in the field was to rely on the loose formation and the accumulation of numbers to consume a few more shells of the Soul Master Regiment.
And the reaction of the military attache who was invited to watch the ceremony by the Star Luo Empire was not much different from Ning Tian, his main job was also to record the equipment and actual tactical performance of the Soul Master Group, this is a project that His Majesty the Emperor is focusing on now, and if he does a good job, he may be able to raise his position when he returns to China.
It's just that when he saw the individual equipment on his body compared to the armor of the ordinary army, the protective methods were quite casual, and the soul masters who were only wearing light military uniforms couldn't help but feel a headache.
It is impossible for the Sun and Moon Empire to openly announce how many shells and milk bottles each soul master group is equipped with, and the Star Luo Empire's imitation of the establishment of the soul master group can only rely on pure guessing in this regard, and what can be directly imitated is only those equipment that are exposed on the surface.
But the launcher of the soul guide cannonball is not worth anything at all! On the contrary, the strange individual equipment on those soul masters that obviously uses various rare metals is even more elusive, and even without knowing the use, they can't even learn it, and no one in the country knows how to make it.
Moreover, the Sun and Moon Empire is so willing to invest in the small parts of individual equipment, and the logistics supply is only afraid that it will be more bloody, and the intuition of the military attache of Xingluo tells him that His Majesty the Emperor wants to fully imitate the Sun and Moon Empire's soul master group to deal with it may be a bit problematic.
Although he didn't know the phrase "those who learn from me live, and those who resemble me die", but the number of financial resources and soul guides is the Sun and Moon Empire's best advantages, and it would be strange to compete in the same way as the other party in the area where the opponent's greatest advantage is.
The military attache could see that the Sun Moon Empire's Soul Master Group's idea of army building was obviously based on attack, but if the Star Luo Empire didn't directly imitate it, would it be necessary to establish a defensive Soul Master Group? Where are there so many defensive soul guides, not to mention that compared to the soul guide ray gun that can be fired infinitely as long as you take a little rest and re-energize, it is impossible to rely on the shield to protect it repeatedly......
And when the schedule of the first day was over, and the guests in the audience dispersed in turn and went to the surrounding residences to rest, Huo Yuhao, who found an opportunity to get the answer from Ye Guyi, "The evil soul master's detection radar has responded, but there are too many people to locate it specifically, and it scares the old lady to death" Huo Yuhao turned his head and directly found Jing Hongchen.
"Yuhao, are you here?"
Jing Hongchen, who was in a good small building in the military guest house and temporarily moved in with his family, looked in a good mood, and was in the mood to make tea in the birdcage by the window.
"Hall Master, I have something I need answers from you."
Huo Yuhao stood opposite Jing Hongchen, with his hands behind his back and a serious expression.
Jing Hongchen looked up at Huo Yuhao, who had a tense expression, and waved his hand with a smile: "Don't be so serious, it can't be that you have discovered Haotian Sect again, right?" Sit down and drink tea first. β
Although Huo Yuhao sat on the sofa and took the teacup handed by Jing Hongchen, his expression did not relax at all.
"Hallmaster, I ......"
"You're just in time, this is the second stage of Mingdetang's raising and the list of alternative soul beasts that can be called later, how about you come and see what will be used to do soul experiments for you?"
Huo Yuhao swallowed back what he was about to say for the time being, and took the handwritten list handed by Jing Hongchen.
There are some common hundred-year-old soul beasts that make sense, but the problem is that some of the things above are too unbelievable......
Devouring dragon, with a ferocious personality, known as a mini Tyrannosaurus rex, has the talent to devour heaven and earth, and has cultivated for five thousand years.
Evil eye, four hundred years of cultivation.
Evil eye, two thousand years, six thousand years of cultivation.
Evil Eye Tyrant, 18,000 years of cultivation.
Huo Yuhao: ......
It's a big problem to think about these things!
"Hall Master, at this thousand-year level, the soul beast itself must be willing to achieve an acceptable success rate, you confirm these ......"
Jing Hongchen had a confident expression, and said with a smile: "You just put ten thousand hearts and guarantee that there is no problem." β
ββ¦β¦ Are they all dying? β
"Not exactly, but if they don't, they're dying."
Huo Yuhao looked at the list again with a complicated mood, and asked with some uncertainty: "Evil Eye, is this ...... Church Master, are you in contact with that being? β
Jing Hongchen put down the teacup and said slowly: "Don't think about it, evil eyes...... This is a soul beast that is a specialty of our Sun and Moon Continent, after the collision of the continents thousands of years ago, the Evil Eye Tyrant Ruler you know once achieved prestige by challenging the Emperor Heaven in the Star Dou Great Forest, and this species has also been integrated into all aspects of the Sun and Moon Empire, including the Evil Monarch Soul Mentor Group that you are more familiar with. β
"However, when did this soul beast arise in the Sun and Moon Continent, the age is too old, and there are many theories, many of which are more daring assumptions."
"Yu Hao, I have to remind you, although the Evil Eye Tyrant Ruler does not regard all evil eyes as forbidden to hunt other humans and soul beasts, his character is very protective, and there are many direct descendants under the continuous branching."
"If you need the Evil Eye as a soul ring in the future...... This kind of soul beast is indeed in line with you, it's best to let us prepare in advance, don't hunt it yourself, otherwise it may be the result. β
Huo Yuhao nodded lightly, after all, Huo Hang's experience of almost being taken away was there.
"Hall Master, you can explain to me in detail about the attitude and communication of that master later, now I have more urgent things to know."
After that, Huo Yuhao's eyes looked straight at Jing Hongchen seriously.
"Hall Master, what the hell are those bullshit representatives from the Heavenly Soul Empire? This group of local nobles who have already made a lot of fat are really full, and there are so many people who want to go further? Forgive me for not believing it. β
"Among the people I know well, you are the most well-informed, the highest level and the most trustworthy, please forgive me for asking so directly, after all, it will not be long before you listen to their meanings and put them into action, and then it will be completely out of control...... Is it the work of those who do not see the light? This is tens of millions of lives, and the stakes are too high, so I can't help but be dissatisfied and wonder, will we be dragged into the water? β
Jing Hongchen bowed his head in front of Huo Yuhao's somewhat sharp gaze and was silent for a moment.
Attracting evil soul masters to make up for the lack of combat power at the top is a potential national policy that can be done and cannot be said inherited by many generations of the Sun and Moon Empire, Kong Deming and Jing Hongchen not only know about their existence, but also do have various cooperations.
Although Jing Hongchen didn't take the initiative to explain the situation of those people to Huo Yuhao...... However, with the current situation of the demonic wind in the underground world of Mingdu, it is not surprising that Huo Yuhao's intellectual curiosity and character know something.
After thinking about it for a while, Jing Hongchen asked rhetorically first: "Yuhao, do you think that if it is indeed as reported by the prince before, they want to instigate a rebellion in Western Xinjiang, and with the role of Mingdetang, is it possible not to be pulled into the water?" β
Huo Yuhao replied without stopping: "It's not the same as flooding the soles of your feet and not going over your chest, and it's completely different to simply do it for the interests of the country and satisfy more of some people's unspeakable thoughts!" β
"Hall Master, since I have enjoyed the pouring and cultivation of so many resources, it is naturally impossible for me to be as satisfied with simple cultivation as others, and some things that minors should not see and listen to are not applicable to me!"
"Anyway, at least you should be prepared for this kind of military event, right? Mingde Hall, the entire college, countless institutions, tens of thousands of people's jobs and even the safety of their families are counting on you to take the helm. If you take a wrong step in one moment, countless people will suffer because of it. You don't want to be scolded, why does my grandfather have to ask for food whenever your grandfather makes a mistake, right? β
Jing Hongchen took a deep breath, this kid is really growing up too fast, and he has a lot of thoughts, and when he saw Xu Tianran doing things around, he began to worry about whether Mingdetang would ascend to heaven on the spot.
At this time, Jing Hongchen did not answer directly, which was a default.
"Hall Master, what do they want to do so much?"
"There are more possibilities, a place of war and devastation to support their development, and a person to go to an empty place for them to plunder their wealth as a new place to settle down...... What do you think? Don't say it's me, does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince know it himself? Did he just feel that it was in line with his own wishes and pushed the boat aside? β
Jing Hongchen chuckled: "How can he have the ability to control everything in the palm of his hand...... At best, they are just cooperating, not the relationship between the dog and the owner, but it is fortunate not to be bitten by the snake. β
"Hall Master, I'd like to know more about them...... The Evil Eye Tyrant can't be offended, so will they be in peace? β
"At least the former is still in the Demon Forest, and they are right under Mingdu's nose!"
Jing Hongchen's face changed slightly: "It's messy, where did you hear this?" What did you hear? β
