Douluo Continent: I, Huo Yuhao, am the Master of Spirit.

Chapter 445 The Primitive People Shocked by Soul Guidance Devices, Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect

"Erio——————"

"Honey, as long as you're happy."

"Don't kill the boss's cat. If the boss gets angry, he might banish you to the God of Emotions' timeline to challenge the great gods."

"Baby, if it were you, what are your chances of winning against the top players?"

Kafka laughed heartily, while Silver Wolf was speechless. Really? Letting her fight in the God Realm like this, she's guaranteed to die!

"Hey! I'm just asking, in case the boss agrees."

"As for playing against top players, let me develop for a few more decades. Even in a game, you can't let a marksman who has been playing for three minutes in the game take on the Storm Dragon after twenty minutes."

"Of course, if the God of Emotions is willing to supply me with all his might, and the boss grants me the authority to [Dream], I might give it a try, since it's quite challenging."

Kafka patted Silver Wolf on the shoulder and said, "Why don't you just ask the boss to give you the position of Lord of Spirit? Our Wolf Lord has quite the ambition."

Amidst their playful banter, the four of them entered the auction house one after another. The auction house had a semi-circular entrance, where four maids were waiting.

There was still some time before the afternoon auction, and the guests attending the auction would usually engage in tedious social interactions in the banquet hall next door.

The area around the main gate was unusually quiet. Four maids wore long white dresses with hems that trailed on the ground. The dresses were decorated with patterns and words woven with silver thread, which were probably symbols of the Heavenly Dou Empire.

The four maids immediately came forward and bowed to Kafka and the others. Their attitude was very proper, and their smiles were well-trained, making people feel comfortable without feeling that they had lost their manners.

They showed no signs of soul power; they were simply ordinary people.

Whether in the future or the past, some high-end venues always prefer to hire ordinary people as maids or bodyguards.

On the one hand, these ordinary people have little ability to resist and will not make the guests feel threatened. On the other hand, ordinary people who have experienced the harsh realities of society understand better what the law of the jungle is and know how to be humble towards the strong.

High-end venues like auction houses value prestige; without prestige and reputation, they simply cannot attract rare items and distinguished guests.

"Excuse me, is there anything I can help you with?"

"We're here to sell things." Firefly's voice was very soft, showing no trace of the Fire Knight's demeanor.

Upon hearing this, a maid in a white dress said with a bright smile, "Four distinguished guests, all auction items need to be appraised by an appraiser to determine their value."

"If the appraised value of the auctioned item exceeds one thousand gold soul coins, the bidder is eligible to participate in the afternoon auction."

We have prepared many treasures for this auction, including a top-grade thousand-year-old soul bone!

Silver Wolf's eye twitched; she felt like she was about to become a吐槽 (tu cao, meaning to roast or criticize) performer.

"How exactly are these two words, 'millennium' and 'top-grade', combined? Of course, if it's an external soul bone, that's another story."

"Alright, alright, take us to find an appraiser. Time is of the essence and the task is urgent."

A maid immediately led the four people into the auction house. The interior of the auction house in the Heaven Dou Empire was not so magnificent, but pure milky white.

The reliefs on the surrounding walls are not exaggerated, but simple and bright, which is refreshing and creates an elegant atmosphere.

It's more like a museum than an auction house.

This does deviate somewhat from the history recorded on the Magic Network, though it's also possible that the Douling Empire's practices influenced later records.

The Heavenly Dou Empire does not seem to pursue extreme external extravagance, but rather a restrained kind of luxury.

During this period, the Star Luo Empire, ruled by Baihu, favored ostentatious extravagance, with resplendent gold and grandeur being the mainstream aesthetic.

The two empires eventually became like each other.

The maid stood attentively in the appraisal hall on one side of the hall, and gestured for the four of them to enter.

Inside the appraisal hall were eight appraisers dressed in black robes, all fiddling with the items in their hands. A maid waved to an auctioneer with the number one on his chest and said, "Appraiser number one, please appraise the value of their items."

The first appraiser put down the vase in his hand, approached Kafka and the others, gave a slight bow, and said, "Hello, may I ask what this item is?"

Kafka took out a level 6 soul-guided ray cannon and a level 6 defensive soul-guided device from her storage soul-guided device and handed them to him, saying, "These two soul-guided devices."

The appraiser, who subconsciously took the soul tool, was a little confused. The weight of his arms almost made him fall to the ground. He looked left and right but couldn't figure it out.

He walked to a table, placed the soul tool on it, put on his glasses, and gently stroked the outer shell of the soul tool with his palm, exclaiming in surprise, "The material feels like high-mountain rock essence, but it's not quite the same. Is this a soul tool?"

"Why does this look so strange? And this bracelet, is it a storage soul tool?"

"Please forgive my ignorance, but could you tell me what kind of soul tool this is? Judging from the material alone, it is indeed a treasure."

This level-six soul-guided ray cannon is made of synthetic metal, which is currently the most important material for level-six soul tools. The raw materials are plentiful and inexpensive.

However, in ancient times, only Gaoshan rock essence possessed the properties of this alloy. But this appraiser was quite skilled and actually knew about Gaoshan rock essence.

"Let me introduce it. That big one is called the Soul Guiding Ray Cannon. It's a level six soul tool. When you inject soul power into it, it can release fire-attribute rays. At full power, its power is equivalent to a Soul Saint's strike."

"That bracelet is a level six defensive soul tool. When infused with soul power, it can generate a soul power barrier around it, which can withstand the attacks of a Soul Emperor," Silver Wolf said casually. In her opinion, these soul tools were nothing special.

In the main timeline, a level-six soul tool is the kind that would be dropped on the ground and no slightly famous faction would bother to pick it up.

If you want it, go to Tiandou Plain to buy it wholesale; it won't cost much on average.

These words were a bit hard for the number one appraiser to understand. The other seven appraisers in the appraisal hall also put down the items they were holding and gathered around the table to look at the two soul tools.

"Soul tools have attack and defense types?"

"What does 'level six soul tool' mean? I've never heard of it."

"I don't know, I've never seen it. I've only seen storage soul tools and balancing soul tools used to stabilize carriages."

This is the first time I've ever seen such a long, black soul tool.

"Isn't it a bit too cumbersome to use this to hit people? Wouldn't it be better to make a hammer out of the high-mountain rock essence?"

Just like cavemen encountering an AK47, the eight appraisers weren't much better off.

Modern level six soul tools are products that integrate soul tool mechanics and soul tool design. The soul tool array and mechanical structure work together perfectly, making them much more effective than ordinary level six soul tools.

"Um, distinguished guests, since these are weapons, could you please take them to the testing grounds in the back for a trial?"

The first appraiser wiped the sweat from his brow and addressed Kafka and the others.

"Do as you please." After receiving Silver Wolf's permission, the eight appraisers led the four to a testing ground at the back. There were many suits of armor on the testing ground, some of which had some scratches.

The first appraiser was holding the Soul Guidance Ray Cannon but didn't know how to use it. Silver Wolf guided him to point the cannon forward and put his finger on the trigger.

"Inject soul power, and when the small screen behind you displays 100, you can press the trigger. A full supply of soul power allows you to fire four times."

"Try it yourself. This is the recoil-free version. Just make sure your hands don't shake."

Being able to work as an appraiser at the Heaven Dou Auction House naturally makes one a Soul Master. The old man in front of him was a Soul Master, and he began to inject Soul Power according to the instructions.

Shock was evident on his aged face. The massive iron block before him was like a bottomless pit, draining his soul power until it was almost completely depleted. Finally, the small screen displayed "one hundred".

The first appraiser pulled the trigger at the target ahead, and the muzzle of the soul-guided ray cannon immediately lit up with a blazing white light, shooting out a ray of soul power carrying high temperature.

The scorching heat washed over the faces of the appraisers around them. Everyone stared wide-eyed, for in front of them lay a long, crimson road, the writhing lava silently proclaiming the temperature of the radiation.

The armor in front was instantly vaporized, and the high temperature remaining in the air caused the light to ripple and fluctuate.

The first appraiser was dumbfounded, finding it hard to believe that this was the attack he had launched. Without a doubt, if this strike had hit the Soul King, the Soul King would have had no chance of survival.

Even a powerful offensive beast spirit, the Soul Emperor, would absolutely not dare to take this attack head-on!

The small screen on this soul-guided cannon also displays "seventy-five," meaning it can still launch three more attacks.

A Soul Master's soul power was actually able to unleash four Soul Emperor attacks! This is simply a divine artifact!

The first appraiser said in a trembling voice, "Honorable guest! We are not authorized to appraise the value of this item. Please allow me to call the board member over."

Silver Wolf frowned and said, "Tsk, what a hassle. Go and come back quickly."

Kafka patted Silver Wolf's shoulder and said with a smile, "Don't be impatient, baby, we have plenty of time."

Perhaps sensing the urgency of the situation, a dignified old man dressed in a magnificent gold-embroidered robe, with white hair and gold-rimmed glasses, arrived at the testing ground.

"Are these the auctioneers? It's a pleasure to meet you! My name is Xue Beihe, and I am the general manager of this Tiandou Auction House. I will be the one to appraise this item."

The old man performed a noble greeting. As a director of the Tiandou Auction House, he inevitably had to deal with various forces, so he naturally had a very shrewd and worldly mind.

He picked up the soul-guided ray cannon with one hand, aimed it forward, and pressed the trigger again, unleashing another burst of blazing white soul energy rays.

The old man moved his arm slightly, and the ray left a fan-shaped patch of scorched earth on the ground. All the armor in front of him disappeared instantly, and the high temperature caused the appraisers around him to sweat profusely.

After the stored soul power dissipated, Xue Beihe recharged it, gazing at the soul tool with great admiration, exclaiming, "A creation worthy of awe the world!"

"The Soul Master world has always believed that Soul Tools only have auxiliary functions, but today I've truly learned something new: Offensive Soul Tools really do exist!"

Moreover, if such soul tools can be deployed in the military, then what are the Spirit Hall and the Star Luo Empire? A sharp light flashed in Xue Beihe's gray eyes.

Then, he tried out the defensive soul tool, personally using his soul power to bombard the soul barrier in front of him, feeling its defensive strength.

Without a doubt! The Soul King could not possibly break through this barrier!

Two soul tools, one for attack and one for defense, are truly divine artifacts!

Xue Beihe looked at Kafka and the others and said, "Truly a wondrous creation!"

"My initial estimate is a starting bid of eight million gold soul coins!"

"If you agree, I'll arrange it as the grand finale immediately!"

Silver Wolf couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement. A mass-produced item selling for eight million—the sheer technological superiority was practically robbery.

Even if it were converted into Dream Coins, it would be 800,000. I wonder how many games that could be sold. If the people in the main timeline found out, all the major merchants and factories would probably go completely crazy.

"It doesn't matter, just make the arrangements as soon as possible."

Xue Beihe immediately signaled the maid next to him to take the two soul tools away. He looked intently at Silver Wolf and asked, "Could you tell me who made these two soul tools?"

I am truly curious as to what extraordinary person could have created such a marvelous object!

"If you are willing to tell us, we will treat you as the most distinguished guests!"

This person's knowledge is enough to benefit the entire Soul Master world, giving them a completely new understanding of Soul Tools!

Silver Wolf revealed an expression of certainty, looking at Kafka, Blade, and Firefly, as if asking who would make a move.

The usually silent Blade opened his red eyes, unleashing a terrifying aura. One yellow, two purple, three black, and three red spirit rings appeared in the air, and the aura of a Super Douluo enveloped the small training ground.

Xue Beihe's body stiffened, and he almost fainted. It was already a miracle that he, a mere Soul Saint, could stand up.

"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask, and just nod if you understand."

Xue Beihe nodded repeatedly, like a chicken pecking at rice. Who would have thought that the young man behind him was actually a Title Douluo, and what about that Soul Ring ratio? Could this be right?! The master's theory is not like this.

After the scent dissipated, Kafka smiled and said to him, "Take us to the lounge. We'd like to participate in the auction this afternoon."

Xue Beihe dared not disagree. He should have said earlier that there was a Title Douluo present! If he had known there was a Title Douluo, he would not have said a word!

These days, the personalities of the titled Douluo are all stranger than the last, and you might offend them if you're not careful.

There was no true titled Douluo belonging to the royal family in the entire Heaven Dou Empire; Poison Douluo was merely a guest of Prince Xue Xing.

Offending a titled Douluo basically means you're out of the biosphere.

He immediately instructed the maids outside to lead them to the resting hall at the back. The reason he didn't lead them was because his legs went weak and his body was completely out of control.

Kafka and the others followed the maid to the resting hall at the back. The maid's eyes were filled with reverence and awe, and her movements became even more eager.

Silver Wolf waved her away and then said to Kafka, "It's definitely quieter here."

"Spirit rings are really a great thing. Once they're revealed, you can tell each other's strength, which reduces a lot of suspicion."

"Speaking of Kafka, how will the fourth catastrophe descend in the future?"

Um—I mean, what should we do about their identities? What if they log off? Where will their bodies be stored?

Kafka laughed and said, "Of course it's a sect."

"A sect belonging to the Fourth Calamity—the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect—has all its members entering a dormant state after logging off."

Players can choose to teleport their bodies back to their sect for free, or they can pay a sum of Dream Coins to have Cocoon manage their bodies and enter an invincible, ethereal state.

"Once a player dies, they will be forced to cool down for five days, and upon logging in again, they will lose 30% of their original cultivation level as a punishment mechanism."

Silver Wolf pondered for a moment and said, "That's not bad. By the way, who is the game administrator for the Fourth Calamity?"

Kafka pointed to herself and her and said, "Us."

"In the future, we will be the managers of the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect. The boss will give us some authority, and our main task is to prevent the server from crashing."

Silver Wolf, his voice brimming with enthusiasm and a hint of excitement, said, "Isn't it just a game designer?"

"After being played by the game designers for so long, I've finally become a designer myself!"

I will definitely make the players feel the love from the game designers!
