Chapter 26 The Soul Hunt Begins
After leaving the soul-hunting town and continuing for half an hour, Gu You and Tang San saw a city wall that was about five meters high, with no ends visible on the left and right, and a large number of metal spikes installed on the wall.
Mathieu showed his ring and token to the guard guarding the gate. After Su Yuntao parked the carriage and Mathieu put all the items into the ring, the guard opened the gate made of pure metal and let Gu You
A group of people passed by, and then they discovered that spikes were also installed inside the city wall. Compared with the ones outside, the ones facing the soul beast forest were slightly darker, and there was solidified soul beast blood at the bottom of the spikes.
Seeing the gazes of the two people, Matthew Nuo explained: "These are what were left after the impact of the soul beasts during the beast tide. The last beast tide was hundreds of years ago."
Entering the city wall, there is an open grassland. Matthew Nuo explained that this is to facilitate the observation of the soul beast riot in advance and allow time to prepare and respond.
After walking for about half an hour, we finally arrived at the outskirts of the forest. Matthewno asked everyone to stop and make preparations before officially starting to hunt for souls.
Gu You sorted out the dagger tied to his waist and several daggers tied to his thighs. Tang San checked the daggers and sharpened table knives everywhere on his body. At the same time, he secretly checked the sleeve arrows in his hands, keeping
Ready to launch at any time.
"Let's go." Mathieu Nuo and Su Yuntao were also ready, and they led the two quasi-soul masters to officially start hunting for souls. Su Yuntao was responsible for opening the way, with the two newcomers in the middle, and Mathieu Nuo was responsible for the rear.
Entering the forest is completely different from what Gu You imagined. The forest roads are extremely difficult to walk. Fallen leaves, exposed tree roots, and vines will affect the position of your feet. Not to mention that there are bushes in some places. If you don't do it in advance,
He was well prepared, and with Su Yuntao in front of him responsible for clearing the way, the spikes on the bushes alone were enough to give Gu You a drink.
Gu You whispered to Tang San: "The forest here is completely different from our Holy Soul Village." Tang San nodded, and Matthew Nuo behind him smiled and said: "How can it be the same? The woods near the human living area
The Wuhun Palace has arranged for soul masters to clean it up, and the bushes and other things have been cleared away. In addition, soul masters will also be arranged to check later to prevent the emergence of ten-year soul beasts."
Gu Youyou said: "We just approached the Soul Beast Forest from the north gate. Wolf hunting is random. Let's go to the East District first to help Xiao San get his soul ring, and then slowly find the soul ring I want. Let's go southeast.
.”
After Su Yuntao heard this, he silently changed his direction from south to southeast.
Along the way, Tang San saw many spirit beasts, including herbivorous spirit beasts living in groups and carnivorous spirit beasts traveling alone. Gu You, Su Yuntao and Matthew Nuo explained to him one by one the knowledge of spirit beasts and how to use them when necessary.
Avoid conflicts with spirit beasts.
Gu Youyou: "Xiao San, you have to remember that if you don't need the soul beast's soul ring or you are being chased by the soul beast and cannot escape, you need to protect yourself. Otherwise, you must not kill the soul beast indiscriminately."
"Generally speaking, the soul rings of soul beasts are divided according to their age. That is to say, those who have lived for more than ten years are ten-year soul beasts, those who have lived for one hundred years are century-old soul beasts, and so on. The strongest soul beast
The beast lived for at least a hundred thousand years."
"Xiao San, have you ever thought about what to do if the soul beast dies?"
"Is the spirit beast dead?" Tang San thought for a moment, "It's impossible to imagine that there are so many forbidden life zones and the soul beasts in the sea are dead."
Gu You shook his head, "That's not the case, Xiaosan, usually a soul master has a maximum of nine soul rings. According to the most suitable soul ring ratio currently popular, two yellow, two purple and five black, even if a titled Douluo follows the minimum
If you hunt soul beasts in numbers, you have to kill nine soul beasts."
Tang San didn't understand even more, "Nine, that's not a lot."
"Just looking at one titled Douluo is indeed not a lot. But if you look at the many one-ring and two-ring soul masters across the continent, the number is terrifying."
"Why?" Tang San asked. Even Su Yuntao, who was leading the way, and Matthew Nuo, who was behind, were secretly listening.
"Because soul masters grow too fast, and soul beasts grow too slowly." Speaking of this, Gu You sighed, and then said: "A two-ring soul master needs two hundred-year soul rings, but a soul beast
It takes a full hundred years to grow into a century-old soul beast."
"We humans only need ten months to give birth to a child. After twenty years, the child will grow up and have another child. If the parents are soul masters, then the child will most likely be a soul master. As long as there is soul power, it is at least a link, even if it is the worst quality
It takes ten years for a soul beast to last ten years. How many children can a pair of soul master parents have in these ten years?"
Tang San, Su Yuntao and Matthew Nuo thought about it carefully, feeling a little scared inside.
Matthew Nuo said in a slightly trembling voice: "From the time a soul beast is born to the time it grows into a century-old soul beast, there may have been several, a dozen or even dozens of first-ring soul masters."
Gu You nodded slightly. "After I learned about the soul master profession, I knew very clearly that this profession was bound to die out."
"According to the data released by Wuhun Palace, the number of awakened soul masters every year is gradually increasing. Even if the number of soul beasts is enough now, what about after a thousand years, what about ten thousand years later, and what about a hundred thousand years later?
Does the beast still have a chance to grow into a hundred thousand year soul beast?"
"That's not right, Xiaoyou." Tang San interrupted Gu You, "Then what does this have to do with our current soul hunting?"
Gu You replied in an indifferent tone: "It doesn't matter, I'm just saying."
Seeing the other three people glaring at him, Gu You said calmly: "But the problem is here. Even if I don't say it out today, the problem does not exist. It will only continue to drag on until the soul beast is completely destroyed.
If a martial soul continues to practice without a soul ring, the soul master profession will completely disappear."
The reason why Gu You said this was because he had watched the situation of the hundred thousand year soul beast in "The Peerless Tang Sect". Also, although he has not watched the follow-up, his friends who have watched it also said that in "The Dragon King"
The plot in "Legend" and the story of the soul beast. Coupled with coming to this world personally, after investigation and thinking, Gu You is very convinced that even if Tang San does not regard Douluo Continent as his own backyard after becoming a god, the soul beast
It will inevitably become extinct, and the profession of soul master will completely disappear in tens of thousands of years.
"I am a genius (compared to the local aborigines). It would be fine if I did not find the problem. But now that I have discovered the problem and do not solve it, then the future me will definitely look down on the current me."
"I will definitely find a way to replace the soul ring and upgrade the soul power."
Tang San looked at Gu You in front of him. He felt the incomparably powerful will in his ordinary words. The sunlight passed through the canopy of trees above his head and shone on Gu You. At that moment, it was as if Gu You himself was emitting light.
This is something Tang San can't do. He has almost no personal will. In the original work, whether it's fighting against the Spirit Hall or becoming a god, Tang San passively fulfills the wishes of some people and does something, and never shows any signs of doing it.
This happened entirely out of one's own will.
"I will help you." Tang San said softly.
At this time, no one noticed that a pair of green eyes were watching them from behind the bushes on the left rear of Matthewno.
