From the Soul Motion Machine onwards, the Mechanized Douluo

Chapter 151 Old Deng! I left the will-o'-the-wisp downstairs at your place! [A Day in the Life of a Drifter]

Chen Hong's Beast Blood Divine Rune is a medium that uses the blood of a soul beast, which is full of soul power, to communicate with the soul power of heaven and earth. This medium allows Chen Hong to bear the energy load in place of Chen Hong, enabling him to release cross-level soul skills.

In Chen Hong's view, Oscar's soul spell also seemed to be a medium for communicating with the soul power of heaven and earth. Otherwise, how could Oscar, with his own soul power alone, produce a giant soul power sausage that could restore the soul power of five or six teammates?

Unless energy is no longer conserved, Oscar's portion of soul power was transformed into several portions of soul power through his soul skill, which were then consumed by other soul masters.

Compared to the non-conservation of energy, Chen Hong felt that Oscar's strength was insufficient to overturn Chen Hong's fundamental understanding of the conservation of energy. Therefore, there could only be one correct conclusion: when Oscar released his soul skill, not only his soul power was involved, but also the soul power of heaven and earth. Ultimately, Oscar used one unit of soul power to leverage the balance of heaven and earth's soul power, creating a giant soul power sausage containing several units of soul power.

Therefore, what Chen Hong needs to study is whether Oscar's soul skill, martial soul, or soul incantation is what allows Oscar to leverage the soul power of heaven and earth, giving his own soul power several times the leverage of the soul power of heaven and earth.

Although his intuition told Chen Hong that it was most likely a soul curse, he still wanted to carefully verify this bold hypothesis.

"Speaking of which, why are you, a support-type Soul Master, so obsessed with possessing an intimidating presence?"

Inside the research lab, Chen Hong casually sat at a table, looking at Oscar, who was slowly recovering his mental strength not far away, and asked him curiously.

Chen Hong himself is considered a support Soul Master, but he seems to have begun to possess a certain level of powerful control abilities.

So, every support player has a heart set on dealing damage?

"This..." Faced with Chen Hong's question, Oscar hesitated for a moment, then decided to be honest: "Let's just tell Brother Chen the truth."

The longer Oscar spent with Chen Hong, the more he realized that Chen Hong was a good person with a stable personality. As long as he didn't make enemies, he was a helpful person.

(Chen Hong: Child, that's not being helpful, that's having a strong interest in you~)

"I...I've fallen for a girl," Oscar stammered, his face flushed, before finally managing to utter the words.

"Oh, is that all?" Chen Hong said, looking every bit the part of a gossipmonger, even though he actually knew everything.

"And also... that girl... is extremely outstanding." For some reason, Oscar felt that saying these words to Chen Hong was like telling the girl's parents, "Old Deng! The will-o'-the-wisp is downstairs at your house!" It was a bit exciting, but also a bit awkward.

"Okay, continue." Chen Hong nodded slowly with a faint smile, looking quite interested.

"But...but that girl's family requires me...I must be a Soul Master with strong combat power." Oscar's ears turned red, and his voice was very weak. Oscar felt that as soon as he opened his mouth, Chen Hong, who was super smart, would know what he wanted to say.

Oscar had subtly expressed his feelings to Ning Rongrong some time ago, but she rejected him with a smile. Ning Rongrong's reason for rejecting Oscar was that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School needed a powerful battle spirit master, not yet another support spirit master!

Oscar didn't know if Ning Rongrong had noticed his feelings for her. After all, he hadn't said anything at the time. He had only asked Ning Rongrong what kind of partner she wanted in the future when the Shrek Seven Devils (whose son, Bajie, was now playing with them every day and temporarily replacing Xiao Wu's agility attack with his pig charge) finished their training.

Ning Rongrong, her eyes sparkling with longing, said, "The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School needs a powerful Soul Master to lead the sect to revival!"

After that, Oscar never brought up the matter with Ning Rongrong again. From Ning Rongrong's words, Oscar understood that she definitely wanted a powerful battle spirit master. As for him, a support spirit master, it seemed hopeless!

"Hmm," Chen Hong pondered slightly. Well, the Technology Chamber of Commerce, lacking its own high-level Soul Masters, hadn't developed combat-type Soul Tools under Chen Hong's control. He planned to wait seven or eight years, see if he could recruit a Title Douluo from somewhere, and then lift the restrictions on combat-type Soul Tools. A large number of combat Soul Tools would flow into the market through the Technology Chamber of Commerce. Chen Hong didn't think Oscar could defeat Ning Rongrong head-on.

It's true that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will be impacted by the development of amplification-type soul tools, but that impact only weakens the uniqueness of Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda soul masters, diminishing their significance and making it impossible for them to continue maintaining such a large sect as the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda soul masters have merely been weakened, becoming replaceable entities, not dead.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School might be destroyed by the development of soul tools, but the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda soul masters won't die out. As long as they join Chen Hong's ranks, Chen Hong can naturally find places for these soul masters to realize their value. For example, they could become gold diggers or establish a strategic investment department. The people of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School are quite good at business.

Moreover, amplification soul tools have a terrible feature that they are prone to failure in enhancement. It's not that Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda soul masters can't find employment, but their employment opportunities will be squeezed out by amplification soul tools.

But what if Oscar was referring to Zhu Zhuqing? After all, this bastard hadn't mentioned her name, and if it was Zhu Zhuqing, Oscar might indeed be hesitant to call her by her name directly. Chen Hong felt he needed to consider this possibility.

Because Ning Rongrong had explained the future development of soul tools to the other party, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School no longer had as much demand for "soul masters with strong combat power" as before.

Since Oscar was being cryptic, Chen Hong had no choice but to be cryptic in return, to avoid any mistakes.

"Then you need to work harder. If you have the power to break the shackles of family on the other person, you will be able to bear the pressure of family, and even other pressures, for them." Chen Hong's words were meticulous, strictly following Oscar's answer, without any specific target.

but

For some reason, Oscar felt that something was off about what Chen Hong was saying. It sounded like Ning Rongrong, but it didn't. This left him unsure of Chen Hong's attitude.

I won't feed the defense
