From the Soul Motion Machine onwards, the Mechanized Douluo

Chapter 144 I've been holding back a huge amount for you! [Bonus chapter for the generous donation]

"Soul Ring Theory? What is that?" Three big question marks popped into Hu Liena's cute little head, and a hint of confusion flashed in her beautiful light red eyes. However, her attention quickly shifted, and her curious gaze focused on the ordinary-looking envelope.

"That kid Chen Hong has finally decided to contact me?" A hint of curiosity flashed in Hu Liena's beautiful eyes. She was extremely curious about the gift Chen Hong had suddenly given her.

"Could it be that petty guy, angered by one of my letters, is writing me a letter to get revenge?"

Hu Liena thought that given Chen Hong's personality, he was actually quite capable of doing something like this!

"Never mind! I'll just open it and see!"

"That bastard went too far. I helped his tech guild so much, and he just vanished into thin air."

Hu Liena felt a surge of anger at Chen Hong's scoundrel-like behavior of only showing up when he needed something.

Hu Liena has witnessed the development of the Technology Chamber of Commerce over the years, especially after the Chamber successfully dragged the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School into its fold and took up residence at Shrek Academy. The Technology Chamber of Commerce became very famous among the high-ranking members of the Spirit Hall.

Even at the temple, there are rumors of discussions about the Technology Chamber of Commerce.

After all, the Technology Chamber of Commerce is a chamber of commerce whose main business is road construction and research on soul tools. It has appeared in the high-level circles of the Heaven Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire many times. In the soul tool market, it has forced the two imperial chambers of commerce to close free trade, establish trade barriers, and sign market stabilization agreements.

Hu Liena has witnessed everything the Technology Chamber of Commerce has developed. Since the Technology Chamber of Commerce is a new force that Hu Liena "discovered" herself, it is basically regarded as a force within Hu Liena's camp within the Spirit Hall.

Hu Liena thought she had a very good eye, and she saw at a glance that Chen Hong was different from others. Although his soul power talent was not very high, Hu Liena had long since stopped expecting much from Chen Hong's combat ability. It would be great if he had a smart brain like Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang.

As the Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall, Hu Liena harbored a touch of pride. Among her peers, aside from that one person, she didn't believe she was inferior to anyone else, and therefore, she didn't think anyone was stronger than her. She was destined to succeed her teacher, Pope Bibi Dong, and carry on the banner of the Spirit Hall!

There was no man in the world more outstanding than her teacher, Bibi Dong, so Hu Liena felt that there shouldn't be any man more outstanding than herself in the world either!

Of course, this excellence specifically refers to talent in soul power cultivation; Hu Liena still maintains a basic sense of awe regarding intelligence.

At such a young age, Chen Hong seems to have already shown intellectual potential that surpasses his time, which is sure to excite Hu Liena.

After all, the person she admired most was her teacher, Bibi Dong!

Bibi Dong's love for Yu Xiaogang also aroused the curiosity of the naive young Hu Liena.

Why would the world's most powerful woman fall for a man widely regarded as a "master of waste"?

Hu Liena cleared her chaotic mind and, filled with curiosity, opened the first letter Chen Hong had written to her.

Taking out the letter, Hu Liena saw a line of large characters that made her face darken:

[To Chen's little fans at the Spirit Hall]

The signature below is:

Don't be obsessed with me, I'm just a legend.

It's hard to imagine what kind of perverse sense of humor Chen Hong had that allowed him to suppress his embarrassment and write that sentence.

Hu Liena's little feet stopped wobbling, and with a dark expression, she took out the letter. Surprisingly, the contents were quite serious:

"To Lady Hu Liena: I apologize for disturbing you day and night."

"Still acting all high and mighty like that." Hu Liena subconsciously pouted.

"Over the past two years, under the protection of the Spirit Hall and Lady Hu Liena, the Technology Chamber of Commerce has developed rapidly and has temporarily achieved some minor, unremarkable successes."

"??? So you can only speak half a sentence, right?" Hu Liena felt that Chen Hong, this bastard, was about to reveal his true colors.

"The soul tools provided by the Technology Chamber of Commerce are still rather small-scale, and I, Chen, am truly unable to offer anything of value to repay the Spirit Hall and Lady Hu Liena for their protection of the Chamber."

"The Spirit Hall must have already received news of my father Chen Lin's soul power baby bottle; it's the next flagship product of the Technology Chamber of Commerce. The blueprints will also be offered to the Spirit Hall."

The principle behind the Soul Power Milk Bottle is incredibly simple. The Soul Storage Metal mined from the Sword Mountain Range only needs purification and a few simple modifications to be usable. Therefore, the blueprints are completely unimportant; what matters is Chen Lin's ingenious design and the artifact patterns that Chen Hong is slowly studying.

If only the Technology Chamber of Commerce possessed the Soul Power Milk Bottle, it would be a disaster. But if everyone had it, and the Technology Chamber of Commerce's version was exceptionally effective, then it would be technology plunder.

"At least you have some conscience," Hu Liena thought, her inexplicable anger dissipating somewhat when Chen Hong said he would give the Soul Power Milk Bottle to the Spirit Hall. Chen Lin had shown the Soul Power Milk Bottle to Chen Hong immediately after creating it, and then had Bishop Soto send a copy to Spirit City. Hu Liena had only learned of this from her teacher, Bibi Dong, in the last few days; currently, the Spirit Hall's higher-ups were all waiting for the Technology Chamber of Commerce's next move.

The Soul Power Milk Bottle has already touched upon the field of "Soul Guidance Weapons". The higher-ups of the Spirit Hall knew at a glance that the Technology Chamber of Commerce alone could not handle it. Based on previous cooperation, the Spirit Hall was now waiting for the Technology Chamber of Commerce to take the initiative to give up its monopoly, rather than having the Spirit Hall take action itself, lest it be seen as disregarding past relationships.

In a sense, the Spirit Hall's higher-ups are very concerned about the Technology Chamber of Commerce and are willing to offer plenty of goodwill.

Because the Technology Chamber of Commerce's positioning is too bizarre. Like a succubus, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School thinks it's a branch of their own, and the two great empires think the Technology Chamber of Commerce is very compliant and harmless, always informing them of any good food, and that if their own technological strength is insufficient, they can only blame themselves. The Spirit Hall, on the other hand, feels that the Technology Chamber of Commerce is like a subordinate they inexplicably recruited from somewhere, as if no matter what happens, the Technology Chamber of Commerce will inform them.

The Chen family of three each maintains their own power base and has deeply inherited the true essence of the Ning family's succubus bloodline!

"The Soul Power milk bottle is still not up to par, so I've prepared a huge Soul Ring Intent Technique for you!"

Why did your tone and demeanor change so suddenly?! You're not pretending anymore, are you?!

Thank you to [Book Friend 4611] for the 100 reward.
