Chapter 185: Huo Yuhao’s Backup Plan Also Includes Meili
Regarding what Roman said about Plane Consciousness helping him, Huo Yuhao truly had no doubts.
Humanity’s Burning Incineration would undoubtedly be a catastrophe for any world, but for Douluo Star, it might be a good thing.
Or rather, Little Planet Spirit had long wanted to directly reboot, and this generation of humanity had truly been spoiled rotten by her.
She gave all the resources she could give, but they played with Supernatural, couldn’t advance in Supernatural, played with Technology, and Technology only progressed one process in ten thousand years.
If Huo Yuhao hadn’t brought the concept of Soul Tool Machine Tools to Douluo Continent ahead of time, following their line of thinking, who knows how many thousands of years it would take to think of the path to mass production.
It was clearly something that could be solved just by using their brains, yet this group of guys took a huge detour.
Say they’re stupid? These Soul Engineers’ brains are really sharp. As the highest authority in the enthusiastic R&D department, Huo Yuhao had taught quite a few Soul Engineers.
These Soul Engineers’ minds turned really fast; they learned new knowledge without any slacking, and Mathematics was spot-on with one teaching.
A level six Soul Engineer could perfectly integrate into Huo Yuhao’s research base with the new knowledge system after just three months of training.
Later, Huo Yuhao also figured it out: Soul Engineers of this era are all-rounders.
The Core Formation Array of a level seven Soul Tool is akin to a large-scale integrated circuit board, extremely complex in both logic and structure, with very high precision requirements!
This group of Soul Engineers could, with just an engraving knife and a piece of Metal, handcraft various high-order Soul Tools from raw Materials in three months.
In his previous life, any scientist who saw them would be shocked and say, “They are practically superhumans.”
IQ and ability are not the issues; the problem lies solely with the entire Soul Tool system.
To put it bluntly, the entire Soul Tool is a weapon born for Slaughter, with combat as the main theme, and the tech tree extended from it is all for combat.
Limitations, unscientific aspects, and social factors caused Douluo Star’s Soul Tools to completely collapse.
Seeing this group of hopeless cases, it’s no wonder Little Planet Spirit wants to play Humanity’s Burning Incineration.
Back then, if Huo Yuhao hadn’t retracted it in time, Little Planet Spirit would have almost secretly accessed this Incantation.
In the end, she could only puff out her Mouth and give up the idea.
He retracted his thoughts.
Hearing Huo Yuhao’s voice with a relieved tone, Roman couldn’t help but smile and say:
“Haha.”
“As expected, seeing your expression, I knew Boss you definitely prepared a Backup Plan.”
“That’s good, otherwise, if there were choices, who would want to use that Incantation!”
Roman leaned back relaxedly against the soft chair back, his emerald green eyes restoring their former laziness and gentleness.
To be honest, the other party’s serious demeanor was indeed imposing, worthy of King Solomon’s name.
Huo Yuhao added another sugar cube to his Cappuccino cup.
He preferred sweets, the sweeter the better. Adam across from him didn’t speak, but Audrey followed Huo Yuhao’s example and started adding sugar.
Slender fingers held a thin spoon stirring in the ceramic cup, and she said mildly to Roman:
“Do you still remember what my evaluation of Tang San was?”
Roman recalled for a moment, his orange-red ponytail swaying slightly behind his head.
“I remember you said Tang San was a ridiculous clown.”
Huo Yuhao nodded and said:
“Correct.”
“This evaluation fits Tang San the most.”
“He always thinks he can control the unknown.”
“For any matter, as long as some Wisdom and power are used, it can develop in the desired direction.”
“He never considered that events could spiral out of control.”
“Or rather, he doesn’t believe the future he guides will lose control.”
Roman pinched his chin and said thoughtfully:
“Sounds very self-centered.”
Huo Yuhao chuckled and continued:
“Pretty much.”
“Everyone is somewhat self-centered to varying degrees.”
“I’m no exception.”
“But Tang San incorporated an unquestionable certainty into his self-centeredness, even deceiving himself.”
“Tang Buddha’s life can be said to have been smooth sailing.”
“In his early years on Douluo Continent, he had two Deities protecting him.”
“With tactics that could be called laughable, he shattered the Martial Soul Empire.”
“This could be considered an excellent Matchmaking mechanism.”
“The Martial Soul Empire was even worse than Tang San in war Command.”
“After ascending to God Realm, two Divine Positions pushed him to God King in an almost crude manner.”
“He could be considered a lucky God.”
“His weapon is the old Sea God’s Sea God Trident, his skills are the old Sea God’s Thirteen Halberds of Gold, and his position in God Realm was given by Shura God.”
“This smooth-sailing development made him feel that Fate revolves around him.”
“Naturally, he would have such ideas of scheming and controlling everything.”
“However, Bai E and the others are after all my Children, and also my Retainers.”
“They are not for Tang Buddha to manipulate at will.”
“No matter the outcome, he must pay the price!”
Huo Yuhao stopped stirring, placed the Cappuccino on the table, his tone extremely serious.
“Rest assured, Bai E and the others have a connection to the [Imagination] Authority within their Bodies, which I gave them.”
“Once Tang Buddha goes too far, exceeding their endurance, the [Imagination] Authority will directly connect to the [Dream] Authority and pull the few people straight into Dream Space.”
“You know the priority of the [Dream] Authority in this regard; it ignores Space and time.”
“Then [Imagination] and [Understanding] will ruthlessly strike Tang Buddha hard.”
“This guy can’t withstand the bombardment of two Rules.”
“But in my view, the greater possibility is that Tang San will be directly drowned by Bai E’s Rage of Destruction.”
“His Will is something a mere clown like Tang San cannot shake.”
“All of Tang San’s actions will turn into the Blazing Fire of Tempering Destruction, ultimately piercing fiercely into his own chest!”
“How could a ridiculous clown possibly control Fate and Destruction?”
“He’s just digging his own grave!”
“Moreover, I am there as the safeguard.”
“I will ensure they don’t fall into the Abyss; whether they can spread their wings and soar high depends on them.”
“I once told you that I promised a beautiful future where west winds converge at the end of their Thorny path.”
“They are not Chess Pieces, but my Children.”
“I have never lied about this.”
After a moment of silence, Roman said:
“Mm.”
“I have never doubted those Children’s Will.”
“Since that’s the case, I’ll continue working.”
“There’s still a pile of work undone today.”
“Ah~!”
“I really want to get off work soon!”
“I still want to see Meili Jiang’s posts!”
Hearing Roman’s words, Huo Yuhao’s eyelid twitched, somewhat hesitant to speak.
“Um, Roman?”
“Really no need for me to send Meili over?”
Roman shook his head resolutely, his voice very serious.
“No need!”
“Being able to see Magic Meili in this world already makes me very happy.”
“She must have her own Life too.”
“I won’t disturb her.”
“Thank you, Boss!”
“Loyalty!”
After saying that, Roman closed the Magic Net. Huo Yuhao felt somewhat helpless, and a fake pitiful crying sound came from beside him.
“Wah wah wah.”
“Roman!”
“You’re way more conscientious than a certain unscrupulous Boss!”
“Brother Merlin is really moved!”
A beautiful Woman with white hair, red eyes, wearing a Maid Outfit had somehow sidled up next to Huo Yuhao.
A “well” mark appeared on Huo Yuhao’s forehead, and he slapped Meili’s delicate pretty face, pushing her away hard.
“Go work!”
“If you don’t work properly, when can I live in a Villa and drive a luxury car?”
“Go work!”
Meili said with a bitter face:
“I didn’t expect Brother Merlin to be Roman’s complimentary gift; it’s too heartbreaking.”
“As soon as I arrived, I was fed Niangni Spring. Do you know how much psychological damage that causes a Half Nightmare?”
“Boss, where is your conscience?”
Huo Yuhao smiled and said:
“Now you know.”
“My conscience was thrown away a few hundred years ago.”
“Without a conscience, life is so much easier now.”
“If you don’t work, I’ll get the whip. You don’t want to be ashore and get a hundred lashes, right?”
Meili hurriedly waved her hands.
“Don’t!”
“Brother Merlin will work hard from now on!”
“I will definitely let Boss you live in a Villa and drive a luxury car!”
“Please treat Mr. Merlin gently.”
Seeing her like this, Huo Yuhao helplessly shrugged. This guy in front of him had been constructed by Imagination just a week ago.
The moment he came out, Huo Yuhao fed him Yellow Girl Niangni Spring, turning him into Meili on the spot.
The real Meili, Huo Yuhao absolutely wouldn’t Imagine; it’s too wicked. Better let Merlin do it.
After a while, Huo Yuhao stood up to leave the Maid Coffee Shop. Adam and Audrey had already gone to Dream Space.
Adam went to handle affairs, and Audrey should be watching over the Spirit Dragon Clan’s eggs, waiting for their Birth.
Before going out, Huo Yuhao turned his head to Meili and said:
“Meili, I gave all Creation possibilities.”
“You’re no exception.”
“So, can I know what your Wish is?”
Meili paused while clearing the table, lifted her head, and said mildly to Huo Yuhao:
“I want to truly understand humanity’s pain, then comprehend the weight of this pain.”
“Emotions are something Half Nightmares cannot understand, but I want to figure out what it really is.”
Huo Yuhao waved lightly to the back, then put his hands in his pockets and stepped out of the Maid Coffee Shop’s door without looking back.
Gentle words flowed into Meili’s ears along the clear breeze.
“Is that so.”
“Then I wish you success.”
