Chapter 104: Su Tong
“Tian Meng Ge, stop calculating for now. I have something to ask you.”
Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm was trying to calm his thoughts after losing composure upon seeing the outrageous title Giant Mountain Super Powerhouse.
At this moment, he was deducing the Magic Net program. Currently, through his coordination and cooperation with Ilex, the Magic Net code program had been developed to seventy percent.
It was expected that next month, the Magic Net prototype would be completely finished, and there would definitely be no problem with it.
Afterward, as long as they waited for Roman’s Foundation to arrive, the Dream Divine Kingdom construction plan would take the first step.
Hearing the familiar voice, Tian Meng removed his hood, looked up at the sky of the Sea of Consciousness, and asked:
“What’s wrong, Yu Hao?”
Huo Yuhao’s voice soon began to echo in this Sea of Consciousness that resembled the Starry Sky.
“Tian Meng Ge, how exactly can an Ice Sky Snow Woman Martial Soul appear on a human under natural circumstances?”
Tian Meng scratched his head and said: “Natural circumstances?”
“Snow Empress shapeshifting, of course.”
“What else could it be? Such a creature nurtured by heaven and earth is extremely noble and impossible to become a human’s Martial Soul.”
“Unless we use Technology and Ruthlessness to forcibly construct an Ice Sky Snow Woman Martial Soul, I can’t think of any situation where a natural person can awaken an Ice Sky Snow Woman.”
“You know, the Ice Sky Snow Woman is Extreme Ice and Snow, surpassing even the Ice Empress in Ice Attribute. How could a normal human possibly withstand such an attribute?”
In the Sea of Consciousness, Huo Yuhao sighed, and his ethereal voice echoed amid the colors of the stars:
“Too young, Tian Meng Ge.”
“Use my Spiritual Power to take a look at the girl next to me.”
“Tian Meng Ge, you still need more practice!”
These words left Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm utterly baffled, like Louis XVI. After getting permission, he probed the stunningly beautiful girl next to him through Huo Yuhao’s Spiritual Power.
“Let me see what’s going on?”
At first, Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm was casually holding his arms, then his body trembled, and he put his hands down.
“Hiss~ I need to stand up to see this.”
Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm suddenly stood on the back of the Golden Tortoise, his face showing utter confusion.
Clearly, this young silkworm had received a massive shock.
“Outrageous.”
His lips kept moving, finally spitting out these two words.
“This isn’t right?”
“Martial Soul studies don’t exist anymore!”
“How could this Martial Soul possibly appear on a human?!”
“There’s only been one Ice Sky Snow Woman in history! How could Snow Empress leave behind a Bloodline?!”
“If there was, the other two of the Northern Three Heavenly Kings would have killed over long ago!”
Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm calmed down for a while, but he couldn’t find a reasonable theory to explain this phenomenon no matter what, so he could only sigh and say:
“Existence is reasonable.”
“You’re right, I’m still too young.”
“There truly are countless prodigies in this world!”
Seeing that even Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm couldn’t give a reasonable explanation for the Martial Soul of the girl next to him, Huo Yuhao simply let it go.
It was probably a world bug designed by that adult.
Due to their powerful Spiritual Power, both Huo Yuhao and Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm thought very quickly. Although they conversed for a long time in the Sea of Consciousness, only a few seconds had passed in the outside world.
Amid the girl’s surprised gaze, Huo Yuhao tore off that Mission Information, then pointed backward toward the sofa in the Rest Area.
“I’m also interested in this mission.”
“How about we go over there and talk?”
The girl nodded and followed Huo Yuhao to the Rest Area of the Mission Hall. It was quite noisy here, filled with sounds of arguing and boasting everywhere.
The chaotic noises easily disturbed one’s thoughts, and Huo Yuhao didn’t like this bar-like environment either.
He used Spiritual Power to cover the surroundings, creating a Soundproof Wall around the two of them.
The girl’s ice-blue eyes, like snowflakes, widened slightly. She had also diligently cultivated Spiritual Power and naturally knew how difficult this feat was.
Even if she practiced for another ten years, she probably couldn’t construct a Soundproof Wall purely with Spiritual Power without mixing in Soul Power.
Huo Yuhao casually sat on the sofa, placed the Mission Information on the table, and said:
“Let’s introduce ourselves first.”
“My name is Huo Qiang.”
The girl sat across from Huo Yuhao, her legs together hidden under her blue-and-white long skirt, her sitting posture much more elegant.
After hesitating for a moment, her clear and cold voice reached Huo Yuhao’s ears.
“Su Tong.”
Huo Yuhao directly leaned back tactically. He hadn’t expected the girl to be so honest, giving her real name while out alone! She was clearly a honest person.
Brothers, you play mind games with me, but you connect heart-to-heart with me.
“Alright, since we’ve exchanged names, I’ll get straight to it, Miss Su Tong.”
“This mission involves one of my goals.”
“I need to get more information from the Adventurer’s Association side.”
Su Tong’s fingers tightly gripped the hem of her skirt, her ice-and-snow-colored eyes seriously looking at Huo Yuhao as she said:
“I promised the victims’ families that I would help them find the culprit.”
Huo Yuhao’s mouth corner curved up slightly, and he unabashedly scanned her body with his gaze as he said:
“Didn’t expect you to be such a good Samaritan with a heart of gold.”
“You’re just a Soul King. I can tell you clearly that this mission may involve high-rank Soul Masters.”
As the possessor of the Ice Sky Snow Woman Martial Soul, she had innate pride and naturally wouldn’t fear the unknown or danger.
Or rather, very few people had a temperament that didn’t match their Martial Soul.
Su Tong still met Huo Yuhao’s gaze directly, her eyes showing seriousness and determination.
Huo Yuhao smiled and said to her:
“Since you’re so insistent, we can investigate together.”
“There’s no limit on the number of people above. If two people accept it together, there shouldn’t be a problem.”
Su Tong thought for a moment, then finally nodded. She didn’t mind acting together with others; it meant they could watch each other’s backs, especially since Huo Yuhao was clearly a Strong Person.
After reaching a consensus, the two got up and went to the front desk of the Mission Hall, handing the mission list and Adventurer Seal to the staff together.
After the staff confirmed that their Strength met the mission requirements, they immediately went to the Archive Room on the First Floor and handed a more detailed set of Information to the two.
“Adventurers, the detailed information on the Missing Person Case is all here.”
“This is copied from the City Lord’s Mansion, with all details inside.”
Huo Yuhao took the Mission Information, exchanged a glance with Su Tong, understood each other’s thoughts, and took her away from the Adventurer’s Association.
In the biting cold north wind, Huo Yuhao gently pulled up his Black Trench Coat to block the loss of his body heat.
He exhaled a puff of white mist and said to the girl next to him, who was still wearing a skirt in this weather:
“Want to grab something to eat first? This damn place is freezing!”
“I’ll treat you to Kenlaishi.”
“Burgers and Fried Chicken are so tasty!”
Su Tong suddenly felt that the person next to her was a bit unreliable. Her delicate little face drooped, and she turned her head to look at him as she said:
“I think we should find a place first to look over the detailed information on the Missing Person Case.”
Huo Yuhao waved his hand and said:
“Without eating your fill, where does the strength to investigate the Missing Person Case come from?”
In reality, Huo Yuhao had already used Spiritual Power to read the case details in the archive.
It seemed to have lots of details, but none of them were useful; they didn’t connect at all, and quite a bit of the Information was even misleading.
In Huo Yuhao’s view, hoping to solve the case with this stuff was less reliable than hoping the culprit would turn themselves in.
In the end, it would still come down to using his World-shattering Wisdom to crack the case.
They were already in a fantasy world—who still played at being Detective Conan? Huo Yuhao’s main purpose in getting this archive was to find the general area where the culprit appeared.
Then directly use Spiritual Power for brute-force probing in that area. Spirit Abyss Realm not enough? There’s Spirit Domain Realm here too. Still not enough? There’s Divine Origin Realm here as well.
