Chapter 136 Experiment Subject No. 1 Obtained
Chapter 136 Subject One Acquired
"But, as you know, in a family where power changes hands, no one can ever remain unscathed. There is only the strong suppressing the weak, and there is no such thing as compassionate prayer. After you and I were assassinated one after another, your father also began to fight back."
At this point, Mu Hanyan's face was filled with pride. In her eyes, her man had never broken his vow and had lived up to it for the rest of his life. Su Xinyuan was her pride, and Mu Hanyan was also Su Xinyuan's pride!
"When I was first assassinated, I was fortunate that Elder Chen discovered it in time, so a tragedy was averted. Therefore, your father did not take it seriously, but only thought it was a warning. In order to show his attitude, your father even gathered everyone and gave up all the power in his hands, just to seek peace."
"However, things did not go as smoothly as expected. This peace only lasted for a few months. After two of the remaining four heirs were eliminated, your father received an offer from one of them, but Su Xinyuan chose to refuse."
"Until one day, your father was invited to a banquet. Halfway through the banquet, you were attacked. This attack was successfully thwarted by Su Xinyuan, who had sensed something was amiss beforehand. It was on that night that your father chose to take control of the family."
At this point, Mu Hanyan reached out and touched the group painting on the wall. "That night, your father said to me, 'Yan'er, I'm sorry for not being able to give you the life you wanted. But you must believe me, from today onwards, no one in this family will bother us and our child again.' That night, he settled you and me in and then turned and left the courtyard."
"Five days later, when he returned, he held the family head's token, a sapphire ring containing spatial treasures, and a space ring containing pinkish-blue gemstones. He happily told me that no one would disturb our lives anymore."
"After Elder Chen's explanation, I finally understood that after your father left that night, he dragged you to the Su family's ancestral hall and personally snapped their necks. Since then, even though the power within the family has shifted, you and I have always lived a peaceful life. However..."
"Hmm? But what?" It seemed the story wasn't over yet, and driven by curiosity, Su Yu pressed for an answer.
Mu Hanyan smiled and said, "It's nothing really. It's just that there are always a few clueless people who end up there forever in the ancestral hall..."
Alright, so it turns out my own father isn't any better. No wonder none of these old guys have been moved all these years. With Old Chen around, who wouldn't be blind enough to come and die? After all, they don't even know who Su Xinyuan is.
The story wasn't long, but it allowed Su Yu to learn about Su Xinyuan's past. He realized that his current situation wasn't much different from Su Xinyuan's...
After bidding farewell to his mother, Su Yu returned to Mingde Hall. In his spiritual sea, he commanded his clone, "Go to Teacher Xuan's place. Someone should be waiting for you there."
After receiving the news, the clone Luo Yu returned to Xuan Ziwen's laboratory and even audited a class. There was also a Shrek Academy student who had been bullied terribly by Wang Shaojie, but he had toned it down considerably after Xuan Ziwen intervened.
Sure enough, not long after Luo Yu left Mingde Hall, the news reached Ju Zi's ears.
The subsequent events were largely as expected. Su Yu did not have his clone agree to Xu Tianran's offer, but he gave it a deadline. If it agreed too early, things would not go so smoothly.
The best approach is to keep Xu Tianran on the hook. Only by causing this arrogant and shrewd man to make a mistake will the best results be achieved.
If Luo Yu subsequently joins Xu Tianran's forces, she will undoubtedly become a crucial pawn.
As for the rest, let's leave it to Ju Zi. Even if Ju Zi doesn't provide any assistance, as long as Ju Zi is by Xu Tianran's side, Luo Yu will definitely infiltrate Xu Tianran's circle, and even become Xu Tianran's bodyguard, eventually controlling Xu Tianran...
Beside Xu Tianran was a Title Douluo, but this Title Douluo was not yet powerful enough, meaning that his plan could still be implemented.
In the blink of an eye, half a year has passed. Now, Elder Yi has basically recovered his complete memories. However, although his strength and consciousness have been stabilized, his strength has not yet recovered.
Since Elder Yi awakened, Su Yu has not only focused on his own cultivation, but has also been infusing his spiritual power into Elder Yi from time to time. For other soul masters, this kind of infusion of spiritual power is tantamount to courting death.
However, Elder Yi is different. He is of the same origin as Su Yu, and even depends on Su Yu.
On this day, Su Yu was estimating the time. After thinking about it carefully, he realized that it was time for the Body Sect to come and cause trouble. All he had to do now was to dug a hole under the table with the numbers 1, 2, 3, and 8, and then block the hole with the table.
However, things are quiet for now, but once danger arrives, the Eye of Destiny will give you a warning.
"It's probably coming soon. Get ready. Don't fucking tell me the first explosion will be here."
Sure enough, the Fate Gate between his brows suddenly opened, and a strong sense of crisis constantly stimulated Su Yu's brain.
They're here! They're here! The Body Sect is here!
This was no time to dwell on things. They were fully prepared to activate the Red Dust Blessing. Originally, the Red Dust Blessing was the last gift that Elder Mu had left for him, but Su Yu had given it to Wang Dong instead.
Who knew that when Wang Dong left Shrek Academy to become an exchange student, he was worried that Su Yu would be in danger, so he secretly put the item on Su Yu's body again.
Sure enough, in the next instant, several explosions rang out in succession, and the shockwaves from the terrifying explosions swept through Mingde Hall.
Fortunately, Su Yu chose 1238, which put him on the edge. If he had been in the center, he would have been in trouble instantly.
The explosion happened so suddenly that the Soul Masters at the epicenter didn't even have time to react. They could only watch helplessly as they were engulfed by the explosion. The explosion covered a wide area, and at least a hundred Soul Masters were instantly vaporized at the beginning of the explosion.
In Mingde Hall, which was under strict guard and considered of utmost importance by the Sun Moon Empire, who could have imagined that it would suddenly suffer such a terrifying attack?
Hundreds of lab tables were torn apart by the terrifying force of the explosion, metal fragments flying everywhere, transforming into a horrific metal frenzy. Screams mixed with the stench of blood erupted outwards like a geyser under the impact of the terrifying shockwave.
The terrifying explosion even shook the ground violently. More than a third of the people in the massive underground soul tool manufacturing base were affected, and in an instant, the soul masters and students studying in Mingde Hall suffered heavy casualties.
After the explosion stopped, the people from the Body Sect appeared and then wreaked havoc inside the Mingde Hall.
As for Su Yu, he had already used the abilities he gained after absorbing the soul bone to dig a path under the table with his Dark Gold Terror Claw. As for the location of the dig, Su Yu had already blocked it.
Su Yu wasn't idle either. While Jing Hongchen and Du Busi of Mingde Hall were fighting, he frantically dug downwards. According to the original novel, there was a passageway five meters below the experimental tables numbered one, two, three, and eight. If you followed this passageway, you could find the first experimental subject.
Without hesitation, Su Yu rushed out of the tunnel at top speed and finally found the location of Experiment Subject No. 1.
The laboratory was enormous; the circular laboratory was over a hundred meters in diameter and thirty meters high. The moment Su Yu stepped inside, he immediately spotted Experiment Subject Number One.
This is a huge humanoid metal body, standing fifteen meters tall. Its massive body is entirely cast from metal. Although it looks somewhat rudimentary, the overall structure is complete. The chest area is open, and there seems to be a chair or something similar inside.
On this enormous metal figure, he discovered thousands of core magic arrays. Moreover, the sophistication of many of these core magic arrays was something he had never heard of before.
Even more terrifying is that this enormous metal figure seems to contain an extremely terrifying energy. This energy is inherent to the metal itself.
Using the mental detection technique copied from Huo Yuhao, Su Yu carefully examined the No. 1 experimental subject inside and out.
No wonder Jing Hongchen searched frantically at all costs after losing this thing. Now it seems that this thing is the origin of the mecha of later generations, or even the origin of the battle armor and mecha of later generations!
Around the metal figure's body were platforms at varying heights, clearly cast for its creation. These platforms bore traces of residual soul power, indicating that Mingde Hall had been experimenting with them for a long time, and that the resources consumed in the research were an astronomical sum.
Not far away, Su Yu found the platform where the starlight sapphire ring storing Experiment Subject No. 1 was placed. As his mental probe went deeper, Su Yu finally found the starlight sapphire.
It was a piece larger than a palm, resembling a breastplate. It was surrounded by silver-white decorations, beautifully engraved with the shape of the core magic array, but at its very center was a huge gemstone shaped like a convex lens.
The gemstone itself is pale blue with six shimmering star-like lines. Its extraordinary brilliance is mesmerizing.
The star sapphire in front of him was much larger than the family heirloom ring in Su Yu's hand. After all, it needed more space to hold something that big.
Star sapphire is a magical gemstone containing immense energy. This gemstone possesses mysterious spatial power and is the best medium for crafting spatial soul tools.
If a piece the size of a fingernail is added to the storage soul tool, the storage capacity of the soul tool will immediately increase by more than one cubic meter.
Star sapphires are precious, mainly due to their limited production. However, because there aren't many particularly large pieces, their value is also limited.
This is why the Su family owns that piece of land; although it's expensive, it's not ridiculously expensive.
"Finally, I've found you! If it weren't for you, you damn thing, and Snow Empress, I wouldn't be suffering like this. Heaven rewards the diligent!"
Su Yu was so moved that he wanted to cry. Back then, in order to break into Mingde Hall, he went to the Sun Moon Empire alone and trained hard in Mingde Hall for a year and a half. He even became a disciple of Jing Hongchen. Wasn't it all for today?
With the objective achieved, the next step is to prepare for the disguise.
A siphon-like sensation instantly emanated from the enormous starlight sapphire in his hand, and Su Yu's soul power rapidly dissipated, disappearing by one-sixth in just an instant.
His soul power was much stronger than Huo Yuhao's. Although he still couldn't beat Huo Yuhao's freakish mental strength, after all, who could compare to him? His spiritual sea contained a million-year-old Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm and a four-hundred-thousand-year-old Ice Emperor, both of which had turned into his soul rings.
As a beam of blue light shot out from the dazzling surface of the star sapphire, the blue light radiated outwards in mid-air.
A corresponding light also emanated from the forehead of the giant metal figure. The two blue lights collided in the air, and the brilliant blue light instantly illuminated the entire massive laboratory.
Fortunately, the burst of blue light did not last long. By the time the light subsided, the first experimental subject had already been placed inside.
"Time to get out of here, or it'll be too late!"
After storing the spatial sapphire in his ring, Su Yu quickly had Elder Yi simulate his appearance as Poison Undying.
"Teacher, please do me a favor and make me look like I can't be poisoned."
Su Yu remained calm. Elder Yi was enough to help him get through this situation, because he wasn't entirely confident that he could replicate Huo Yuhao's soul skill and imitate the Poison Undying technique on his own. Therefore, seeking help from Elder Yi was the best option.
"Okay, relax and don't resist."
Elder Yi began chanting a spell. As Elder Yi's powerful spiritual energy enveloped Su Yu's entire body, Su Yu could feel himself undergoing a transformation from the inside out, although this transformation was temporary.
However, Su Yu could sense that even if Poison Undying himself appeared in front of him, he would not be able to detect any flaws.
This is what makes Elder Yi so powerful—he strives for absolute perfection in everything he does. However, after passing the test of the Soul Douluo from the Body Sect, Su Yu still has to face the tests of Poison Undying and Mirror Red Dust.
However, now that the die is cast, there's no turning back.
"Fortune favors the bold, I don't care what you say, let's go!"
Su Yu quickly walked back into the passageway, and sure enough, he encountered the Soul Douluo from the Body Sect.
Thank you Gu Linghan for the donation.
