Chapter 605: The ship can no longer go ashore?
Seeing the large stack of documents Shen Ciyuan had placed on the table, Ye Nanxiao stepped forward, picked them up, and began to peruse them.
Every page was filled with dense handwriting, and there were even places where a small note was pasted on to correct a mistake.
Various theories were recorded by Shen Ciyuan in simple vernacular language.
"The Silver Mirror Beast's projection is achieved by sensing all of the enemy's movements through special organs. After sensing is complete, it can replicate a projection that is exactly the same as the enemy and use soul power to construct it, giving the projection combat power."
"Therefore, I speculate that if I could acquire the Silver Mirror Beast's innate ability and convert it into a soul skill, I would be able to possess this ability to project images. This soul skill requires sufficient observation time, after which I would be able to replicate an opponent's projection!"
"And this observation time is not complicated for my Cold Moon Mirror. It can even perform an instant analysis, because no one can deceive in front of the mirror."
Shen Ciyuan's analyses are all based on a large amount of data, making them convincing.
"This projection is more like a copy." Ye Nanxiao raised his eyebrows slightly, not expecting that such a soul beast existed.
"This is replication. The reason why the Silver Mirror Beast is so rare and precious is that it is not only a variant of the Mirror Beast that is hunted by humans, but also rejected by both humans and Soul Beasts. After all, no one wants to see someone who can easily replicate them, especially someone who can completely replicate them," Elder Xuan said.
Long after the original Shrek Academy members became legends, the Mirror Beast was the dream beast of all support-type Soul Masters, especially those with food-type Martial Souls, who regarded it as a gift from heaven.
As a result, the Mirror Beasts were hunted down on a large scale. They were already rare soul beasts, and within a short period of a hundred years, they were almost extinct. In the modern calendar of the continent, the Mirror Beasts had already disappeared from the Douluo Continent thousands of years ago.
No one knows whether Mirror Beasts will still exist in this world.
Silver Mirror Beast, as a variant of Mirror Beast, was more fortunate. It was smaller in size, and its skin could reflect light, giving it a strong ability to hide. It was also relatively stronger in combat and more intelligent, having learned to use its talent for camouflage. In addition, it was able to survive by staying in the sparsely populated north.
"The Northern Forest, that place is close to the far north. It's a difficult place for a Soul Saint. Let Xiao boy accompany you. He might have some friends in the far north," Elder Xuan said, turning the wine gourd in his hand.
These casual words, however, stirred up a storm in Ye Nanxiao's ears.
He was born in the far north and spent a considerable amount of time there.
Shrek's oversight team shouldn't be able to find out about this!
"In the northern forest, even with good luck, it will take ten days to half a month," Luo Xinyao said.
"That's only under the condition of good luck. If we're unlucky, we might be buried by an avalanche." Ye Nanxiao placed Shen Ciyuan's manuscript on the table and pushed it toward Elder Xuan.
Clearly, they might not have that much time; Luo Xinyao came with a mission.
Shen Ciyuan paused for a moment, then turned his head slightly to look at Luo Xinyao.
Elder Xuan casually wiped himself down and picked up the manuscript to read it.
"Northern forest, cloud-covered cliffs, are you sure this is where the Silver Mirror Beast's tracks appeared, Yuan boy?" Elder Xuan asked, looking at the last page of the manuscript.
Shen Ciyuan nodded. "I paid a lot of money to have Lao Su inquire about this for me. Nanxiao should know the accuracy of this information."
The three of them simultaneously turned their gazes to Ye Nanxiao, causing Ye Nanxiao, who was about to grab a handful of sunflower seeds to crack open, to freeze instantly.
"Who did you say you found? How much did it cost?" Ye Nanxiao asked.
"Old Su, Su Rang!" Shen Ciyuan said, "I spent two months' salary on this!"
"Um, give me some time, I need to make a call." Ye Nanxiao took out his soul-guided communicator.
Su Rang is one of the two henchmen of the Aodu Chamber of Commerce, and he's in charge of the intelligence network for Feng Shiyi.
The soul communication was connected to Feng Shiyi almost the instant the call was made.
"Is something the matter?" Feng Shiyi asked.
"Help me ask around. Have Su Rang find out if any Silver Mirror Beasts have appeared in the northern forest. Yuanzi needs a Soul Ring," Ye Nanxiao said.
"Okay, wait for me a moment." Feng Shiyi said without hanging up the call.
Ye Nanxiao even heard Qiu Ye's screams through the soul communication, indicating that Feng Shiyi was personally training the three Qiu Wu sisters.
After about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Ye Nanxiao heard Su Rang's voice through the communication.
"Boss, according to the records of Hunter Team Thirty during their mission in the Northern Forest, they did indeed discover traces of Silver Mirror Beast activity. Based on the traces left at the scene, it's estimated that the Silver Mirror Beast had only been active for a few days when Hunter Team Thirty left the Northern Forest," Su Rang said quickly.
"Send Hunter Team Thirty over there again, um, no, I'll go myself." Ye Nanxiao thought for a moment, and realized that his clone might have an advantage in the area near the far north.
The spirit beasts in the far north are quite ferocious, and most of them are social creatures that live in groups. If they encounter humans, they will launch a large-scale attack.
None of the thirty members of the Hunter Squad possessed an ice-attribute martial soul, putting them at a disadvantage in terms of both mobility and survivability.
"Good boss, you said you'd personally take action?!" Su Rang's voice gradually cracked as he became excited.
"Please let me follow! Ugh! @#%@"
Su Rang was interrupted halfway through his sentence.
"Let me, Old Xu, handle this! You know my abilities, boss!" Xu Zhen snatched the soul-guided communication device and said.
"Is this how you treat your good brother?" Su Rang conjured a long spear in his hand and hurled it directly at Xu Zhen.
Xu Zhen calmly summoned his axe to block Su Rang's attack, while still talking about his abilities.
Su Rang wasn't as tall as Xu Zhen, so Xu Zhen held him down with one hand.
"Alright, you two clowns, let Eleven answer the phone. I remember Eleven's cultivation is about to break through, maybe she can help her with something on this trip," Ye Nanxiao said.
Upon hearing this, Xu Zhen immediately fell silent and quietly handed the soul-guided communication device to Feng Shiyi.
Feng Shiyi raised an eyebrow. She hadn't told Ye Nanxiao about her recent cultivation progress, so how did he know she was just one step away from success?
"Little Eleven, don't think I'm just a hands-off boss. I care a lot about my employees. It's a pity that Little Li probably won't be able to break through the threshold for the next few years." Ye Nanxiao stroked his chin.
"Boss, this is getting a bit perverted." Although Feng Shiyi's lips curled up slightly, she didn't hold back her words.
"I'm so sad. Okay, I'm done playing. Find number three, and while you're at it, bring the two generals along. Let those two go out and stretch their muscles." Ye Nanxiao finished speaking and hung up the call.
"Nanxiao!!"
As soon as Ye Nanxiao turned around, Shen Ciyuan pounced on him and hugged his waist tightly.
"Holy crap! Let go of this mud! This is a classified area!" Ye Nanxiao jumped up and down, but he couldn't shake off Shen Ciyuan.
The latest novel is first published here!
Luo Xinyao looked at Ye Nanxiao with a strange expression, then looked down to confirm that she hadn't lost.
"As expected, the one who needs the most attention isn't that little girl, but Ye Nanxiao?" Luo Xinyao muttered to herself, pressing her hands to her chest.
"Don't bury your head in the air!!" Ye Fox's voice rang out in embarrassment and indignation; he was ticklish.
The next day.
Luo Xinyao organized the team and prepared to return to Wucheng.
She had achieved her mission. To prevent Luo Qian from causing trouble, she had to go back, since Luo Yan had already been sent back last night.
"Young Miss, the escort personnel from Yuheng Tower are ready," Jia Yi reported to Luo Xinyao.
He was somewhat surprised by the service provided by Yuheng Tower. After purchasing the soul tool, the Luo family even hired special personnel to escort it, claiming it was like delivering a package.
Jia Yi originally thought that it was just a matter of stuffing the soul tool into the storage ring and taking it away, right?
When he saw the complete set of maintenance equipment and the huge fortress that resembled a giant ship, he shut his mouth. Yuheng Tower was giving away maintenance services for free, so why not take it? But it seems that Luo Yan didn't get this treatment.
Luo Xinyao glanced at Ye Nanxiao and the other two, who were disguised, and only after confirming that Shen Ciyuan was being held firmly in the group by Ye Nanxiao did she feel relieved and order them to set off.
"Wow! This enormous thing, is it the young lady's doing? But is that a carriage?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? There's no need for horses at all!"
"Then how do we move? There are no horses!"
"Where's the horse?"
As Jia listened to the argument among the servants, he also wanted to know how this enormous fortress-like contraption was to be activated.
"Master, is the ship Yuheng Tower also a soul tool?" the guard asked curiously.
"Yes, send us to experience the Jade Balance Tower's latest transport soul tool." Luo Xinyao said calmly.
"Is this the latest soul tool from Yuheng Tower? A transport soul tool? I've never heard of it before?" Jia asked in confusion.
In their understanding, transportation means included horse-drawn carriages, or more advanced ones with multiple horses, and the common flying soul tools.
As for boats, I've basically never seen one except when I've seen one on the riverbank.
"This ship can even run on land?" The guard stroked the exquisitely carved railing and couldn't help but marvel at how rich Yuheng Tower really was.
"Can't the boat go ashore?"
"Starship One, let's set off." Luo Xinyao stood in front of the window, gazing calmly into the distance.
As soon as Luo Xinyao gave the order, Ye Nanxiao, who was disguised as a boatman not far away, immediately pressed the ignition button.
The Xingzhou-1 trembled slightly for a few seconds, then slowly rose to the surface, hovering about one meter above the ground. Then, white flames shot out from the stern nozzles, propelling it forward rapidly.
"Sit tight! The veteran driver is driving a new car today!" Ye Nanxiao shouted excitedly.
The driver's seat was specially modified by Ye Nanxiao based on the cockpit of Gundam and fighter jets from his previous life. The control stick is also W-shaped, and you can feel your blood boiling when you hold it.
Old Master Xuan gripped his small wine flask tightly, sat behind Ye Nanxiao, and watched Ye Nanxiao continuously press the control panel buttons above his head. He swallowed hard and asked, "Young man Xiao, are you sure you know how to operate this thing?"
"Don't worry! I've driven it in my dreams many times!"
