Chapter 97 Duke White Tiger
That Dai Yueheng is so annoying!
Upon arriving at the military camp, Huo Yuhao originally wanted to observe the military situation on the Douluo Continent more closely. However, Dai Yueheng, in an effort to win Huo Yuhao over, kept babbling in his ear, half-introducing and half-showing off the strength of this army.
But since they're teammates now, he can't show any impatience.
Led by Dureth, a member of the Duke's mansion, Shrek and his group finally met Duke White Tiger.
Before the person even appeared, bursts of air explosions entered their ears. Looking at the figures facing them, Huo Yuhao subconsciously focused his gaze.
His blond hair fluttered in the air, his profile was resolute and tough, and his tall stature was probably close to two meters. He was shirtless, revealing a body of well-developed bronze muscles.
Is this the White Tiger Duke? I really can't recall any memory of this face, but I do remember a simple sketch that my mother drew on the ground with a stick.
This was the first time the father and son had met. However, the blood ties were none of his business as a transmigrated soul. Huo Yuhao only knew that once he had avenged that grudge, this body would belong to him completely, so he naturally had to perform well and fulfill the original owner's last wish.
But let's forget about it for now. We can't afford to mess with them or beat them. Let's focus on developing our strength first.
Du Leisi, who was at the front, quickly stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Marshal, the young master and the people from Shrek Academy have arrived."
Upon hearing this, Duke White Tiger stopped punching, turned around and faced Shrek Academy and his group. His sharp eyes swept over everyone until he saw Dai Yueheng, at which point his expression softened considerably.
Dai Yueheng quickly stepped forward, knelt on one knee before Duke Baihu, and respectfully said, "Father."
Huo Yuhao himself didn't feel anything, but his heart raced again when he heard the word "father," and his blood rushed to his head. There were no other abnormal reactions, after all, Huo Yuhao was still suppressing his emotions.
Although Huo Yuhao did not tell Wang Dong about his background, thinking of Wang Dong's actions in the original work, Huo Yuhao still quietly took a half step back and subtly distanced himself from Wang Dong.
They won't be able to catch him now, will they?
After a brief chat, Shrek and his group had a meal and rested under Durex's guidance. At noon, they set off again in the direction the Death Hand bandits had fled.
To speed up their journey, Dai Yueheng also borrowed more than a dozen flying soul guides from the military camp.
That's right. Shrek Academy, the number one academy on the continent, has established a Soul Guidance Department and has level eight Soul Guidance Masters, yet none of its core inner disciples have their own flying Soul Guidance Devices.
I don't even know where to begin complaining about this.
Because they might be venturing into the borders of the Sun Moon Empire, it was not convenient for the soldiers to go too far in. That's why Shrek Academy needed to take action. After all, Shrek was "neutral" and strong enough that the Sun Moon Empire couldn't really say anything.
The borrowed soul tools, being military equipment, were not worn to prevent border conflicts. Instead, they were used in a soul master hunting formation to venture deeper into the Mingdou Mountains.
After traveling and searching, it got dark in the blink of an eye, and the group, feeling somewhat tired, began to prepare dinner.
Since they were in the wild, Huo Yuhao wasn't interested in slowly grilling the fish, so he took out a lot of cold dishes that he had saved up to make do.
Since the storage soul guide does not have a preservation function, it can be put into the refrigerator for freezing, which is especially suitable for cold dishes and braised dishes that are more flavorful when eaten cold.
Dinner proceeded without incident. Dai Yueheng boasted about his father's achievements again, which amused Huo Yuhao.
Once we eliminate the fluff, let's extract the key words: He followed his grandfather to the battlefield at the age of thirteen, starting as a common soldier, and until he became a legion commander at the age of twenty-three, no one knew his identity.
How did these words end up together? Let's not even talk about the fact that a thirteen-year-old can join the army and go to the front lines; let's just assume that each country has a different conscription system.
It's a mystery how Duke White Tiger managed to conceal his identity while accompanying his grandfather to the battlefield and rising to the rank of legion commander.
The martial spirit is the best indicator of a person's character, especially the martial spirit inherited from a family; anyone with a bit of experience can tell the difference.
Isn't it obvious that the nameless grandfather is paving the way for his descendants? It has inexplicably become something to boast about.
Needless to say, his devotion was another matter. While Huo's mother could be dismissed as an accidental drunken affair, the existence of Dai Luoli completely destroyed the White Tiger Duke's persona.
He has time to go back to Duke Baihu and recreate another one, but he doesn't even have time to make amends or care for the mother he ruined. Duke Baihu himself probably forgot about it.
No, I asked Madam Baihu about Huo's mother's condition once, and after learning from Madam Baihu that Huo's mother was suffering from a serious illness, I didn't even go to see her.
It was obvious that Duke White Tiger did not regard this personal maid who had grown up with him since childhood as a human being.
There's no need for Dai Luoli to highlight how clownish the Huo family mother and son are.
Dai Yueheng, who was speaking eloquently, suddenly felt a chill.
Dai Yueheng touched his nose and continued to tell Ma Xiaotao about the great achievements of Duke Baihu, and even expressed his ambition to become a person like Duke Baihu.
It has to be said that Dai Yueheng is a perfect father-worshipper. He knows nothing about his father, but he believes everything he hears about the White Tiger Duke. He can talk at length about anything related to his father.
If Wang Yan hadn't discovered the evil spirit master's whereabouts and ended the break early, Dai Yueheng might have been able to continue playing for another hour without repeating himself.
With Huo Yuhao's mental detection assistance, Wang Yan easily found the evil soul master's trail based on the clues left behind.
"We should be heading in the right direction. There are a lot of messy footprints ahead, clearly indicating that people have been here frequently."
Wang Yan said in a deep voice, "The enemy should be not far away. Everyone, adjust your mindset and prepare for battle."
Upon hearing this, everyone began to mobilize their soul power, preparing their martial souls to be activated at any time.
Huo Yuhao silently switched his mental detection to focus solely on the direction of the footprints, and at the same time took out two soul tools and put them on his person.
One is a specially made vest, which is both sturdy and comfortable, and the other is a soul-guided shield shaped like a belt.
Wang Yan looked at Huo Yuhao with some surprise. He didn't expect Huo Yuhao to be so quick-witted. Before he could even ask Huo Yuhao to conduct a one-way probe, Huo Yuhao had already done it.
Upon closer inspection, one could see Huo Yuhao wearing a soul tool.
"Yuhao, what's wrong with you...?"
Wang Yan's voice immediately attracted the attention of the others, who all focused their gaze on Huo Yuhao.
"Aren't we preparing for battle? I'm preparing now." Huo Yuhao struggled to put on the metal vest. It has to be said that this thing looks just like a vest, but because of his poor craftsmanship, it wasn't very comfortable to wear.
