Chapter 102 The Missing Module of the Soul Guidance System
Four days later, Shrek Academy reappeared on the Soul Battle Stage.
This time, the match against Yunluo Academy will be a solo battle.
That is, the first time Xu Sanshi's inhuman substitution tactic was used.
However, more than the competition on the stage, Huo Yuhao was looking forward to the scene of Jiang Nannan cutting bananas after Yunluo's second team member came on stage.
Pretending to know the answer.
Seeing the banana snap in two with a crack, even though he already knew this, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but shudder, successfully eliciting a bewildered look from Wang Dong.
Huo Yuhao simply shook his head slightly, indicating that it was nothing.
This kind of reaction is something a woman dressed as a man couldn't understand.
In addition, the third Soul Master to appear this time also attracted Huo Yuhao's attention.
The third Soul Master used a fortress-style tactic, remaining stationary in place with his entire body covered in Soul Guidance Devices; he was essentially a bunker, a common sight during the Anti-Japanese War.
He Caitou sat next to Huo Yuhao. Seeing that Huo Yuhao seemed quite interested in the Soul Masters on the stage, he leaned over and whispered, "Junior Brother, this is the Fortress Battle Formation, which is the most powerful in both attack and defense among us Soul Masters."
"I know." Huo Yuhao nodded. "This battle tactic has some obvious drawbacks. One person's soul power alone cannot sustain it for long. However, I think that once the Milk Bottle can solve the problem of soul power loss, this kind of fortress will have an extremely terrifying suppressive force in war. Its fierce firepower will make it difficult for soul masters of the same level to get close by conventional means."
Upon hearing this, He Caitou's pupils contracted.
If the problem of the milk bottle's soul power loss is really solved, wouldn't the combat power of the Sun Moon Empire's army increase dramatically?
"However, the biggest drawback of this tactic is that the fortress cannot be moved, especially when facing advanced soul-guided cannons. The defensive power provided by the defensive soul-guided device is simply not enough to completely withstand the power of the soul-guided cannon shells."
He Caitou scratched his head and said, "However, it is almost impossible to accurately hit a fortress from outside its attack range."
Hearing He Caitou's words, Huo Yuhao sighed helplessly.
In fact, the problem of insufficient accuracy of the Soul Guidance Cannon in Douluo Continent is quite easy to solve.
After a period of research on soul tools, Huo Yuhao basically figured out the gap between the current soul tool system and the scientific system.
It mainly involves three aspects.
This refers to the research, industrialization, and standardization of the theoretical system of Soul Guidance Technology.
This is the reason why the current Soul Guidance System cannot completely overwhelm Soul Masters.
The Soul Masters of the Sun Moon Empire fell into a misconception, relying excessively on the powerful flying bricks, just like the Soul Masters of Douluo Continent. They accumulated Soul Guidance technology little by little through brute force and trial and error, lacking research on Soul Guidance theory.
Take supersonic aircraft, for example. In its previous life, it involved building wind tunnels to test various data and eventually obtain the finished product.
Soul-guided technology is to be created first to see if it works and how well it works. As for why it works, no one knows. Just build it according to this method.
Even if some Soul Masters discovered some patterns in the Soul Guidance Array and wanted to study them, their lack of basic scientific knowledge, such as mathematics and physics, turned them from being contributors to the edifice of science into independent builders.
Unless a truly exceptionally talented person emerges, it is simply not something that one person can accomplish alone.
Secondly, there is the issue of industrialization. The production of soul tools still relies entirely on the manual craftsmanship of soul masters.
Whether you are a level one soul master or a level nine soul tool, the process of making a level one soul tool is the same, only the speed is different.
Can you believe it? A Soul Master has to personally complete every step of the Soul Tool making process, including but not limited to cutting the core array inscription material, carving the core array, and forging the outer shell. This was something that was unthinkable in my previous life.
The failure to industrialize is the reason for the shortage of soul tool production capacity.
In addition, due to the small-scale workshop model of Soul Masters, standardization is also a huge challenge.
The same formation can produce different effects and sizes depending on the school of Soul Masters, which is why Soul Cannons still have accuracy issues despite their long history of development.
Can you believe that two Level 8 Soul Guidance Cannons of the same model and from the same position can have different landing points, each a thousand meters apart?
Given this situation, even with Huo Yuhao's mental detection, the difficulty of accurately hitting the target with a single shot would be exceptionally high.
In this situation, the Soul Master still wanted to emulate the way powerful archers used their mental energy to lock onto targets.
It serves them right that their soul-guided cannons still can't hit the target even after thousands of years.
As long as Huo Yuhao brings out the two killer weapons of industrialization and standardization, and supplements his basic knowledge of artillery, even if the Douluo Three Kingdoms can't compete with the Sun Moon Empire in high-end soul tools, they can make up for the gap in low-end soul tools by sheer quantity.
Perhaps the level-five soul-guided cannons of the Douluo Three Kingdoms will fire farther and more accurately than the level-six soul-guided cannons of the Sun Moon Empire. The Sun Moon Empire's army barely managed to detect the Douluo army through their high-altitude probes, and before they could even set up their cannons, they were bombarded by the Douluo forces.
Unfortunately, no force on the Douluo Continent had the idea of getting Huo Yuhao to use these two deadly weapons.
Why not just create your own time-travel script by hand? That would be so much more fun.
……
Today's match was as expected, with Xu Sanshi's solo performance being quite entertaining. However, Huo Yuhao was more looking forward to the auction that evening than the match.
Everything went smoothly, and Wang Yan successfully persuaded everyone to buy the soul tool...
Yes, everyone...
Looking at Wang Dong sitting next to him, Huo Yuhao was full of questions.
Although he attended the auction, Wang Dong showed little interest in the soul tools. Huo Yuhao was caught by Wang Dong as soon as he tried to sneak a peek.
"What's wrong?" Wang Dong looked at Huo Yuhao curiously. Why was this guy looking at him with such a strange expression? There was nothing dirty on his face.
"It's nothing..."
Huo Yuhao suppressed his doubts and turned his head to watch the auction more closely.
"The Soul-Devouring Carving Knife starts at 100,000 Gold Soul Coins, with each bid increment no less than 5,000 Gold Soul Coins. Distinguished guests, you may now begin the auction."
The clear, elegant voice had barely faded when number 333 was raised.
"100,000 Gold Soul Coins".
Qingya was stunned for a moment. This was the first time anyone had made a bid since the Soul Devouring Blade appeared at the Starlight Auction House!
She swallowed back the words she was about to say about how rare the engraving knife was.
"Yuhao!" Wang Dong was also startled by Huo Yuhao's voice.
"Junior Brother..." Bei Bei frowned slightly, waiting for Huo Yuhao's explanation.
"I am of the spiritual attribute. If this carving knife truly only contains the soul of an evil soul master, perhaps I have the potential to completely eliminate it. Even if I can't now, I will definitely be able to in the future. Therefore, spending only 100,000 gold soul coins to buy a ranked carving knife is absolutely worthwhile. I guarantee that I will not use it until I have completely resolved the problem with this carving knife!"
Hearing Huo Yuhao's assurance, Wang Dong and Bei Bei felt much more at ease, at least Huo Yuhao's words were usually reliable.
On the contrary, Wang Yan, who had less contact with Huo Yuhao, said with some concern, "Yuhao, don't be impulsive. This concerns your life and future."
"I won't risk my life."
call……
Considering that Huo Yuhao had equipped himself with three defensive soul tools before fighting the evil soul master, Wang Yan believed it quite a bit.
Apart from Huo Yuhao, no one else dared to risk their lives, so the carving knife naturally fell into Huo Yuhao's hands.
Unfortunately, he couldn't touch it for a while. This feeling, like ants crawling, reminded Huo Yuhao of the feeling of waiting for a package in his previous life.
Looking back now, everything that I took for granted in my past life is truly something to miss.
