Douluo Continent: The Evil-Eyed Dragon God, Many Women, Many Blessings

Chapter 461 "Seduction" - Unit-01

The images suddenly blurred, and everything began to return to normal. The spiritual energy that had surged into Xuan Ziwen's spiritual sea also receded like a tide.

"This is impossible!"

When Xuan Ziwen recovered from the image Huo Yuhao had given him, he shouted almost recklessly, and suddenly stood up. A powerful surge of soul power erupted from his body, scattering various metal objects on the ground.

If Huo Yuhao hadn't been quick enough to stop the stack of blueprints he had placed on the table, Xuan Ziwen would probably have been searching the whole house for them in no time.

A fine layer of sweat appeared on Xuan Ziwen's forehead, and his eyes were somewhat red. Like a fighting bull, he stared intently at Huo Yuhao and said, word by word, "Tell me, this is fake!"

Huo Yuhao's lips curled up slightly as he calmly said, "Teacher Xuan, you are an eighth-level Soul Master, and you shouldn't be far from becoming a ninth-level Soul Master, right? Can't you tell the difference between the real and the fake? Others may not be able to, but for a genius Soul Master with a spiritual attribute like me, anything is possible!"

Xuan Ziwen paused for a moment. If someone were to boast about being a genius soul master in front of him, Xuan Ziwen would definitely scoff.

But if the person boasting is Huo Yuhao, then...
Xuan Ziwen took two deep breaths and paced anxiously back and forth in the room, not even bothering to kick the scattered metal pieces.

Huo Yuhao chuckled, seemingly having anticipated all of this. He calmly sat down, poured himself a cup of tea from the teapot on Xuan Ziwen's table without any hesitation, and began to enjoy it with ease.

Besides the stack of blueprints, he also specifically saved this teapot from Xuan Ziwen's loss of composure.

As time passed, the sweat on Xuan Ziwen's forehead not only did not decrease, but continued to increase, and some even gathered into large drops that slid down his temples, while the back of his clothes was soaked with sweat.

At this moment, he had completely lost himself in thought, his brain working at high speed, frantically thinking as he wandered around.

This process lasted a full quarter of an hour before Xuan Ziwen suddenly stopped and turned sharply to Huo Yuhao, glistening beads of sweat flying out from his somewhat abrupt movement.

"How many core arrays did you use in total?" Xuan Ziwen's voice trembled slightly.

Huo Yuhao said, "Thirty-five."

"This is impossible, how could it be so little? Do you know, do you know?" Xuan Ziwen muttered to himself, his eyes fixed intently on Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yuhao smiled slightly: "Teacher Xuan, I am only a mere seventh-level Soul Master right now. How many core magic arrays do you think I could create on my own to complete that work?"

"Moreover, as you can see from its size and internal structure, without attaching any offensive weapons to it, there are only a handful of places where it can accommodate the core magic array. In order to ensure the balance between the mobility of Unit-01 and single-person control, I think thirty-five core magic arrays are the most suitable."

"Of course, there may be even better improvement plans, but that's beyond my current capabilities. If a senior researcher like yourself could lead the research, there would naturally be even more room for improvement." Huo Yuhao's voice seemed to carry a strange allure.

Xuan Ziwen pursed his lips, knowing that Huo Yuhao was trying to seduce him. He didn't respond to Huo Yuhao's last question, but continued to ask, "Then how did you manage to make him move without injecting soul power, and even activate the flying soul tool?"

A mischievous glint flashed in Huo Yuhao's eyes as he explained matter-of-factly, "Of course, they're milk bottles! I've attached twelve level-six milk bottles inside. While the soul power within the bottles will naturally dissipate, the process is much slower than with other soul tools." "Theoretically, as long as these twelve milk bottles are pre-filled with soul power, I can maintain this humanoid soul tool's flight for an hour, or even ten minutes of high-intensity combat, without using my own soul power. However..."

At this point, Huo Yuhao paused, his voice suddenly becoming a few degrees lower: "If we combine it with the sealed baby bottle technology that you developed, Teacher Xuan, the duration might be increased to about fifteen minutes."

Xuan Ziwen was shocked, his eyes fixed on Huo Yuhao: "How did you know I had already developed the technology to seal baby bottles?"

Huo Yuhao chuckled, but offered no explanation.

Xuan Ziwen stared at him for a long time, then shook his head, no longer dwelling on the matter. Instead, he asked, "So how did you make that humanoid robot move? How did you maintain balance? Didn't you use a core array to control each connection point? And what about the connections and coordination between the arrays? How many problems might arise during overall control? Have you thought about that?"

Huo Yuhao smiled and said, "Of course I thought about it, but if we use the core array to connect everything, the overall complexity and difficulty of production will increase significantly. So I used some other methods to replace some parts."

"What method?" Xuan Ziwen's eyes lit up.

Huo Yuhao shook his head regretfully: "I can't tell you yet, because it involves the secrets of our sect."

Xuan Ziwen raised an eyebrow: "Our sect? You've joined a sect?"

Huo Yuhao chuckled and said, "I didn't join. I created my own sect."

Xuan Ziwen raised his eyebrows even higher: "You actually created your own sect? When did this happen? How come I didn't know?"

Huo Yuhao chuckled again, clearly not intending to explain.

Although the Spirit Pagoda has been established for two years, during these two years, the new sect established by Huo Yuhao has been in a stage of stealthy development. Most of its energy has been focused on building the sect's headquarters and making soul tools to make money. In addition, Huo Yuhao deliberately concealed this, so Xuan Ziwen still doesn't know about it.

Xuan Ziwen's face darkened. Every time they got to the crucial part, this kid would play mysterious and keep them in suspense, which was really annoying.

Given Xuan Ziwen's expertise in soul tools, after he developed the milk bottle sealing method, he originally intended to apply this method to humanoid soul tools.

However, the humanoid soul guide device developed by Mingdetang is too large. If we use a baby bottle, let alone the fact that a level nine baby bottle cannot be made at present, even if we use a level eight baby bottle to drive it, we would need at least a dozen to make the experimental subject run smoothly, and it can only run normally for about half an hour.

Moreover, Xuan Ziwen was absolutely certain that the big guy was not as agile as the humanoid metal man Huo Yuhao had created.

Xuan Ziwen was not interested in Huo Yuhao's craftsmanship, because the so-called "Unit 1" also had many problems. In just a short while, he found at least five or six flaws.

But what he valued most was the special method Huo Yuhao used to replace the core magic array and drive the "Unit 1" – his so-called "secret of our sect"!
