Chapter 33 Huo Yuhao enters Mingde Hall, progress in armor research
Mingde Hall is located in the core area of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy. On the surface, it is just an inconspicuous building. But when Huo Yuhao really entered it, he found that the scale of Mingde Hall was much larger than he had imagined.
After entering the ordinary building that covered an area of less than 500 square meters, Xuan Ziwen led Huo Yuhao through three checkpoints, some of which were guarded by soul masters, and some were directly guarded by soul guides.
Led by Jing Hongchen, the two entered the building. Huo Yuhao saw 20 elevators arranged in a circular shape. Each elevator was full of metal texture and could accommodate more than ten people.
Walking into an elevator, Jing Hongchen scanned his identity card on a soul guide, then raised his hand to hold the metal column in the center of the elevator and injected soul power. The elevator immediately slowly fell down.
This process took nearly two minutes to complete. Huo Yuhao secretly calculated the depth of their descent and was shocked to find that they had penetrated at least a hundred meters underground.
During the descent, the interior of the elevator is completely sealed, and no outside can be seen. Only a small white light brings some brightness.
"Are you surprised already?" Jing Hongchen lowered his head, chuckled and looked at the young boy beside him.
Huo Yuhao quickly withdrew his spirit eye detection and bowed slightly to the senior: "Senior, I have indeed... never seen these in the Xing Luo Empire."
Jing Hongchen raised his head with some pride: "Mingde Hall is the core of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy, and it is also the joint efforts of the hall masters of all generations. Mr. Lu is willing to use you to study here as a condition for developing the Valkyrie armor. You are really lucky. I don't know what Mr. Lu sees in you."
Huo Yuhao did not reply this time. Jing Hongchen did not say anything more, nor did he explain anything to him. When learning soul guides in Mingde Hall, one should listen more, watch more, and think more, instead of asking more questions.
The metal door of the elevator slid open, Jing Hongchen nodded to Huo Yuhao, and then walked out first.
This place is simply a world of metal. It is still an arc-shaped hall, but all he can see is metal. After exiting the elevator and walking through a short corridor, his eyes suddenly opened up.
“Ah——” Huo Yuhao took a breath of cold air because the scene before him was so shocking.
This is an extremely wide hall, and you can't even see the edge at a glance. Countless laboratory tables are neatly arranged and extend into the distance. Even in this horizontal row, there are more than fifty. The size of each laboratory table is five meters by three, and the number extending into the distance is even greater. Behind most of the laboratory tables, there are people busy.
This huge hall, with a 20-meter-high arc-shaped dome, was also covered in metal. The strong metallic smell and the humming sound of metal affected Huo Yuhao's senses.
Jing Hongchen pointed to the ninth laboratory table in the first row from the left and said, "Welcome to Mingde Hall, Huo Yuhao. That position will be yours from now on. As for the resources for researching soul guides, everyone can go to the warehouse to get ten kilograms of rare metals every month. However, since you were introduced to me by Mr. Lu himself, I will give you five kilograms more. I wish you all the best on your path as a soul guide."
"Thank you, Master Hongchen!"
Huo Yuhao no longer regrets following Lu Xueling.
If he had not left the White Tiger Duke's Mansion, he might still be a servant at the bottom of the mansion, looked down upon by everyone. After all, he was still just an eleven-year-old boy, and he had lived in that kind of environment since he was a child.
Huo Yuhao asked himself, he was a person who held grudges, but he also cherished favors more. When Jing Hongchen said this, Huo Yuhao felt a surge of warmth in his heart, and the grievances that he had suppressed for many years suddenly turned into a warm current flowing into his heart.
Jing Hongchen waved his hand and turned to leave: "I still have to go to Mr. Lu to see the progress of the research and development of the Valkyrie armor."
The lift door opened again, and under Huo Yuhao's gaze, Jing Hongchen left quickly, and his eagerness could be seen.
In a luxurious living room, Lu Xueling was holding a design drawing in his hand, drawing non-stop. Xilin supported her chin, enjoying the massage from Bella behind her while watching her servant's serious look.
However, Lu Xueling's actions stopped for a moment, because two prompts from the system came into his head. [The Herrscher of Corrosion successfully corroded the first and second targets, and absorbed negative emotions such as fear of collapse and despair, and obtained a total of about 500HW of collapse energy for the host. ]
[Son of the Plane, Huo Yuhao, loyalty has reached 30%, a total of 200HW Honkai Energy has been obtained. ]
The good news coming from both Shi Bao and Huo Yuhao at the same time made Lu Xueling couldn't help but smile slightly.
Xilin crossed her legs and asked, "Human, what are you laughing at?"
"Erosion has already started to act, and there is good news." Lu Xueling put away the banknotes, turned back and smiled at the queen: "Xilin, you don't want to be outdone by Erosion, do you?"
Xilin folded her arms as if she was unconvinced: "Humph, it's okay to let her be proud for a while."
Lu Xueling did not continue teasing his queen and continued to work on his work, but he was at a decision point.
“The Domain Equipment: Bai Lian is not yet complete, but the energy absorbed from the erosion and Huo Yuhao can just make up for it… and it can be upgraded to a complete B-level, but…”
Lu Xueling raised the tip of his right index finger and a miniature holographic projection appeared. This was another set of Valkyrie armor.
The crimson armor fits the whole body, the black leather wraps the skin, the boots are also black, and the armor has a strong metallic texture and does not lack a flexible look. On one side of the armor, there is also a dark sword suspended, and occasionally a few light blue electric lights flash by.
[Valkyrie Armor: Pulse Suit Scarlet]
Should I continue to upgrade the Domain Equipment·Bai Lian to the complete B level, or should I also get this Pulse Equipment·Scarlet?
Bang bang bang.
There was a knock on the door. Lu Xueling put away the holographic projection and coughed twice: "Come in."
Jing Hongchen walked in slowly and bowed to the three people: "Mr. Lu, I want to check the progress of the Valkyrie armor research."
Xilin sneered and stretched her muscles: "It's only been two days, are you so anxious, old man?"
Jing Hongchen laughed: "The short-lived Bailian armor has not yet given me enough pleasure. Although I have the design drawings given by Mr. Lu, I still have to rely on you for the technology."
Lu Xueling shook his head slightly and walked towards Jing Hongchen: "Master Hongchen, you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry... Besides, if the stigma is not popularized, it won't be of much use even if I give you armor, right?"
While talking, he had already walked behind him, with his hands behind his back, emanating strands of collapsed energy, causing cold sweat to break out on Jing Hongchen's forehead.
“Hehe…” But Lu Xueling soon calmed down a lot, patted Jing Hongchen on the shoulder, and smiled slightly: “How about this, Master Hongchen, I will show you the semi-finished product of the new armor first.”
hum...
The holographic projection of Pulse Suit Scarlet was released again, but Lu Xueling enlarged it to its original size.
