Douluo Continent: Contract Goddess, Transforming the Mecha Girl World!

Chapter 220 The Surprise of the Eighth Soul Ring, Old Poison Master Becomes a Beast!

Upon hearing this, Liu Erlong was clearly somewhat surprised.

After all, the Poison Douluo's granddaughter had always studied at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, and although the young woman believed that her own Blue Tyrant Academy was no less prestigious, she had to admit that it was inferior...

The Tian Dou Royal Academy does indeed have advantages in terms of resources and accommodation, so what is Dugu Bo's granddaughter here for?

Seeing is believing. At this time, Liu Erlong was unaware that Dugu Yan had also taken a share of the pie from her beloved little man, so naturally she didn't take precautions against her love rival.

"Senior Poison Douluo, of course, no problem! As long as your granddaughter is willing, our academy will warmly welcome her!"

Liu Erlong smiled and readily agreed.

"Haha, good, good, good!"

"Dean Liu, you really are a straightforward person!"

Having completed the important task entrusted to him by his granddaughter, Dugu Bo was overjoyed and clapped his hands repeatedly in approval.

Chen Shi smiled calmly at the situation. In any case, they were all his women. Yan'er could come and go as she pleased. The girls would meet and get to know each other sooner or later.

Besides, it's good to get to know each other beforehand and build rapport, so that it won't be awkward when we sleep in the same bed later.

After the chat and negotiations ended, Dugu Bo prepared to escort the two away, but Chen Shi still had something to say.

"Old Poisoner, since you're already here, could you do me a favor while you're at it?"

Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo raised an eyebrow. He had been waiting day and night for this kid to ask him for a favor!

"Ahem, what's the matter? As a Title Douluo, there are very few things in this world I can't do!"

Looking at Dugu Bo's enthusiastic and smug expression, Chen Shi smiled with satisfaction.

"Here's what happened. A few days ago, my master successfully broke through to level 80 Soul Douluo, but his eighth Soul Ring was delayed until now due to some issues."

"So today, Old Poison Master, could you lend a hand and capture a few soul beasts while you're at it? They don't need to be too old, 80,000 years or more will do, um... that's all."

Dugu Bo, standing to the side, was stunned after hearing Chen Shi's words. His arrogant and smug expression disappeared. This really was a "small favor"!

It should be noted that the eighth spirit ring of an ordinary Soul Douluo is usually around 50,000 years old, but Chen Shi immediately asked for 80,000 years!

Good lad, this isn't just treating Poison Douluo like a free thug, this is downright utterly ruthless!

Seeing this, Chen Shi quickly began to add fuel to the fire, and the evil gardenia's plan to kill with praise officially began.

"Old Poison Master, you are the infamous Poison Douluo, capable of reducing enemy ships to ashes with a wave of your hand. What are a mere 80,000-year-old soul beast worth mentioning? Right?"

Dugu Bo was used to bickering with Chen Shi, but today he suddenly seemed like a different person, which made Dugu Bo feel a little embarrassed.

There was no other way; he had already boasted about it, and Chen Shi had done the Dugu family a great favor, so the old poison master had no choice but to bite the bullet and take on this difficult task.

"Chen Shi, let me be frank from the start: these soul beasts that are over 80,000 years old are not like cabbages on the roadside that you can just pick whenever you want. Putting aside their strength, just finding one depends on fate."

When hunting such a powerful, high-age soul beast, Dugu Bo became serious, since one-on-one combat wasn't his forte as the Poison Douluo.

"Don't worry, old poison master, my master and I will be there to back you up. As for whether we can find a suitable soul beast, you don't need to worry about that. I have a plan."

Chen Shi smiled mysteriously, his confident tone making him utterly convincing.

"Very well, then I'll just have to make my move!"

Dugu Bo nodded immediately. He knew Chen Shi's methods; they were definitely superior to his own! At the same time, Liu Erlong, the female protagonist of this incident, watched Chen Shi and Dugu Bo discuss matters. She was deeply moved. She never expected that the young man would prepare such a surprise for her before leaving!

Soon, Chen Shi summoned the Dragon and Phoenix Mechs, and the three of them took to the sky. The last one spoke up and made a suggestion.

"Chen Shi, Sunset Forest isn't huge, but it's still quite vast. How about we split into two groups to search for the soul beasts? That would save us more time."

Liu Erlong thought so too, but Chen Shi shook his head: "No need, old poisoner, just come with me!"

Immediately afterwards, Chen Shi took the young woman's hand and led the way flying eastward, leaving Dugu Bo bewildered and with no choice but to follow closely behind.

After flying nearly a hundred miles in the sky, Chen Shi suddenly stopped again.

Looking around, a small hill, half-covered by vegetation and topped with red rocks, rises abruptly from the ground, appearing quite out of place in the jungle.

Dugu Bo used his mental power to probe but found no powerful soul beasts, and couldn't help but ask in bewilderment, "Chen Shi, what did you bring me here for? To climb mountains?"

Chen Shi chuckled lightly: "Old Poisoner, this isn't an ordinary mountain; it has another name—a dormant volcano!"

Extinct volcanoes refer to those volcanoes that have erupted in the past but are now abandoned. However, their interiors still contain a large amount of lava, which is why they have prevented Dugu Bo from detecting them.

However, Chen Shi is different. With his intelligent chip, he can see through and analyze everything. What can a small, dormant volcano do to him?

In fact, Chen Shi had already discovered this extinct volcano. At the time, he was thinking of finding a suitable soul beast for the young woman to keep as a surprise when she came out of the volcano. He never expected to discover this wonderful place.

Those who have played games like Pokémon or Rock Kingdom know that most of the surviving spirit beasts in volcano maps like this are fire-type or rock-type.

Although soul beasts don't have specific attributes, the principle is still the same.

Chen Shi looked down and soon found the target he was looking for.

"Old Poisoner, look what's that?"

Dugu Bo looked in the direction the boy was pointing and saw a group of slender lizards crawling at the foot of the mountain. Their skin was grayish-brown with faint dark red spots, like surging magma.

[Target Soul Beast: Fire Lizard]

[Year Attribute: Around 5000]

[Living habits: Prefers warmth, lives in groups...]

"Chen Shi, these lizards are only a few thousand years old; they're far from being your eighty-thousand-year-old soul beast!"

Dugu Bo chuckled, dismissing it as a minor mistake by Chen Shi.

"Hehe, don't be in such a hurry, old poisoner. We don't care about the small ones, but there are still big ones!"

The next moment, the boy's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he condensed a blade of evil fire in his hand and hurled it toward the mountain below!

"Bang!"

With a muffled thud, a huge hole was blasted into the dormant volcano!

Immediately afterwards, accompanied by a series of strange cries, dozens of fire lizards suddenly emerged from the hole!

One of them was exceptionally large, and it even had a single horn growing from its head!

[Target Soul Beast: Earthfire Dragon!]

[Soul Beast Trait: The Earth Fire Lizard can evolve into the Earth Fire Dragon after breaking through ten thousand years of cultivation!]
