Chapter Twenty-Three: The Forest of Soul Beasts
Early the next morning, before the other work-study students got up, Gu You and Tang San packed their luggage and rushed to the Martial Spirit Palace.
Ma Xiunuo and Su Yuntao drove the carriage and set off with Gu You and Tang San towards their destination Soul Beast Forest. The two of them knew that Gu You and Tang San didn't have them, so they prepared bacon, pickled vegetables, and other durable foods in advance, and also prepared three buckets of clean water.
Gu You and Tang San were not unprepared, in addition to the necessary kettles and clothes, Gu You found a lot of weapons stacked when he was cleaning up the utility room, so he chose a few good daggers and short swords and tied them around his waist.
Tang San didn't bring a short sword, he chose all daggers, and found a few light table knives to re-polish, and found the materials for setting traps in the clutter pile, and put them all on his body.
At the same time, using the pharmacological knowledge learned by the Tang Sect in his previous life, he picked a lot of herbs outside Notting City to make various ointments, and divided them into two small bags, one of which he kept for himself, and the other had been handed over to Gu You last night and informed him of the effects of various ointments.
Ma Xiuno was very satisfied when he saw the two of them fully armed, and every soul hunt was dancing in the middle of the gap between life and death, no matter how cautious it was.
It takes two days to get from Notting City to the Soul Beast Forest, and in the past two days, Ma Xiuno has been teaching the two of them various precautions and tips for the Soul Beast Forest, such as not lighting a fire at night unless necessary, not being too close to the water's edge at night, and the rumor among civilians that lying on the ground and pretending to be dead can survive in the mouth of the soul beast is false, etc. Gu You and Tang San also knew that Ma Xiunuo was caring about them, and they took down what he said very seriously.
Two days later, the group arrived at the periphery of the big forest, and the two of them thought differently, there was a human gathering area on the periphery of the forest, a large number of houses, and there were vendors along the street, all kinds of shouts and shouts came one after another, and a noisy atmosphere shrouded the Guyou group.
Seeing that there was something wrong with the demeanor of the two, Ma Xiuno smiled and said, "Isn't it different from what you imagined." ”
"This is a soul hunting town, and it usually takes nearly a week to enter the soul beast forest, so all kinds of supplies must be prepared, and this kind of soul hunting town is slowly developed from this. Food, drinking water, medicines, weapons, armor, etc. can all be purchased here, but the price will be much more expensive than other places. ”
Ma Xiunuo touched Gu You's head, and then said: "There is also a team of soul masters, usually soul hunters need to form a team, and all kinds of soul masters are fully matched. The first is that the strength of the soul beast is often much stronger than that of the soul master who needs its soul ring, and the second is that someone also needs to be vigilant when absorbing the soul ring to prevent being attacked by other soul beasts. ”
Tang San asked, "Grandpa Ma Xiunuo, do we need to prepare some more items?" ”
"No," said Marcuno, "we have good things in us." ”
Mattheno stretched out his right hand, and on his right index finger was a black ring with mysterious patterns printed on it, and a small white gem in the middle.
"This is the soul guide, with this thing you can easily bring all the daily necessities."
"What is a soul guide?" Tang San asked.
Mattheno explained, "A soul guide is a special item that is powered by soul power. Just like the lights we usually use, a series of common things in life, such as devices that lead water to the bathroom, are soul guides, but they are classified as auxiliary soul guides. ”
"The ring on my hand is a storage soul guide, and there is about three cubic meters of space in the ring, and you can put or take out items at will by instilling soul power. But it is not possible to hold a living creature, and if it is put in, it will die. ”
"This is the symbol of every Martial Soul Hall Master, this one in my hand was given to me by the previous Notting City Martial Soul Hall Master, and I will give it to the next Hall Master when I retire in the future. The Martial Soul Hall of Notting City is the lowest-level Martial Soul Palace, so the internal space of this ring is only three cubic meters, and the ring space of the more advanced Martial Soul Hall Hall Lord is even larger. ”
"Finally, there are the weapon soul guides, which can play an incredible role through soul power. I heard that there is a sword-type soul guide in the Wuhun Palace, which can slash out flying slashes after instilling soul power, and if it is used by Title Douluo, it can even cut off mountain peaks. ”
"It's a pity that the production principle of the storage soul guide and the weapon soul guide has been completely lost, although the life soul guide has not been lost, but there are no production drawings, and only a few people retain the production process through word of mouth."
"With your talent, if you enter the Martial Soul Palace, at worst, you can become the hall master of the Martial Soul Hall in the capital of the two empires, and the storage soul guide you can get is much bigger than mine." Although they were rejected by the two, Ma Xiunuo still hinted at the benefits of joining the Wuhun Palace, hoping that the two of them could join the Wuhun Hall and grow up more smoothly.
"Wow, that's amazing." Gu You heard what Ma Xiunuo meant, but he still refused, and replied in this kind of exclamation tone that he knew when he heard it.
"Stinky boy." Matthew Nona Guyou had no choice but to laugh and scold.
At the same time, in Wuhun City.
"Your Excellency, this is the list of young children's martial spirits that have awakened this year." In an empty and golden hall, a thin man with sunken eyes walked into the hall and respectfully presented the scroll of paper in his hand to a woman who sat on a magnificent throne at the end of the hall.
The woman is the current Pope of the Wuhun Palace, Bibi Dong, she is wearing a bright golden long dress, the dazzling dress is shining, and there are more than 100 red, blue, and gold gems on it. The nine-curved purple gold crown on the top of his head is even more glorious, holding a scepter about two meters long and inlaid with countless gems. Her fair skin and near-perfect appearance made her look so different. Especially the kind of invisible noble and sacred that is exuded on the body, if you don't have a firm will, I'm afraid that the first time you see it, you will have a deep feeling of worship from the depths of your heart.
The woman stretched out her hand and took the scroll, and the man said: "This year, there are more children who have awakened martial souls from the martial soul halls in various places, and the statistics will take a long time, please forgive the Pope." ”
The woman said lightly, "It's okay." ”
The man bowed his head and said, "Thank you, Pope." ”
After a pause, he continued: "This year, there are a total of 365 children who have awakened level 7 innate soul power, of which three are full of innate soul power. It is worth noting that they were all awakened by the Notting City Martial Spirit Hall in the territory of the Heaven Dou Empire. ”
"Oh?" Bibi Dong was curious, "All of them?" ”
"Yes." The man's head was lowered, "The martial souls of the three children who are full of innate soul power are the Ultimate Conduction Dire Beast, the Soft Bone Rabbit, and the Blue Silver Grass. ”
"Blue Silver Grass?" The woman chuckled and said, "Blue Silver Grass can also awaken innate soul power? And what is that ultimate conduction dinosaur? ”
"Yes, according to the information from the report, the soul master in charge of awakening has carefully observed, and it is indeed the appearance of ordinary blue silver grass. The name of the other child's ultimate transmission dinosaur martial soul was chosen by himself, and according to the report, the martial soul has the potential to be suspected of being a top-level beast martial soul. ”
"Blue Silver Grass...... if his theory is true, is that kid ......?" Bibi Dong muttered to himself.
Then he asked the man, "What about the three geniuses?" ”
Cold sweat broke out on the man's forehead, "He, they all rejected the invitation of the Martial Spirit Palace. Bibi Dong was about to frown, but the man immediately said, "But the hall master of the Martial Spirit Hall in Notting City has presented a secret letter, and expressed his hope that it can be handed over directly to you, my lord. ”
After speaking, the man took out a letter from his arms and gently handed it to Bibi Dong.
Bibi Dong frowned and looked at the letter, gradually his brows began to stretch, and he said with a smile: "Genius, this kid is quite confident." ”
"Ghosts." "Yes, Your Holiness the Pope"
"You go and tell the person in charge of the "Martial Soul Daily" that if you receive an article from a person named Gu You in Notting City in the future, hand it in to me first. Go ahead. ”
"Yes, Your Holiness the Pope." With that, the man turned and left the hall.
