Chapter 554
After arranging Yashan and Feng Cheng to accompany Ah Xing, Su Hao stopped caring about anything else and went straight back to the island to continue researching the characteristics of the Source.
Since mastering the Divine Sense, he had a premonition that the time to unveil the mystery of the Source was not far away.
Most importantly, perhaps the Source could really help him solve the Heavenly Stone that would come down in a hundred years. Of course, it could be something else.
With the assistance of Divine Sense, in just a few days, Su Hao summarized some characteristics and laws.
"First, the Source is something like space, with no gaps, can be divided into different parts, but there is no specific minimum unit. Each division will release a certain amount of energy;
Second, if a Source Bead is set as a spatial unit, then theoretically there is no limit to the amount of 'Source' that can be stored in one spatial unit. That is to say, theoretically, after all the material in the infinite universe is transformed into Source, it can be stuffed into the same Source Bead. Of course, this is only theoretical, whether it can be achieved is unknown. Perhaps the Source Bead is what astronomers call a 'poor version singularity';
Third, the Source can be transformed into pure various forms of energy, as well as unstable various substances. The transformed substances have the same properties as real substances, but they are very unstable. Without the support of subsequent Source, they will collapse in at most two hours. However, after the collapse, the substances will randomly aggregate into some elements or compounds, transforming into real substances;
Fourth, matter can be transformed into Source in turn, but only under specific conditions can uniform Source Beads be formed;
Fifth, the Source Device is an object that can release a special Source field, which is related to the frequency of particle movement inside the Source Device. It is speculated that this frequency of movement is influenced by the special movements of the entire planet's environment, commonly known as resonance;
Sixth..."
After sorting out all the discoveries clearly, Su Hao transformed into a "Life Child" and randomly chose a positioning stone to teleport away.
He had left many positioning stones all over the world, which conveniently allowed him to travel freely in this world.
Now, what Su Hao had to do was to search the world for various disasters, solve them, and observe how the 'Induction' turned into Source Beads after being destroyed.
If he figured this out, he could completely rely on the Source Device to produce Source Beads autonomously.
"Judging from the popularity of Source energy technology in this world, perhaps there is already technology to produce 'Source' using Source Devices. Only in this way can the energy used by major cities and factories have stable guarantees."
With that in mind, Su Hao rose up with his teleportation ability and quietly infiltrated the palaces of major cities to collect the knowledge they had accumulated into the bullet space.
With his current strength at the God Transformation Realm, who could he be afraid of?
He wasn't even afraid of the weirdness...
But just to be safe, he should research the 'Fragile Skin Defense' against weirdness first!
With an additional goal in mind, every cell in Su Hao's body became excited. His flying posture became light and agile. His Divine Sense swept across two hundred thousand meters, encompassing everything around him, then he casually chose a direction and flew off.
Disasters were almost everywhere in the world, and solving one would lead to another popping up from an unexpected place.
With Su Hao's sensing range of two hundred thousand meters, it could be said to be easy to find disasters.
Just an hour after he flew, he sensed an anomaly in a mountain hollow.
Thick fog pervaded the area, the silence within the mist was eerie. The plants and trees perceived within were all burnt and withered, while birds and beasts lay on the ground gradually corroding into bones. The exposed rocks and soil had also become pitted, as if eroded by acid rain year-round.
Su Hao carefully sensed it and his eyes lit up: "It should be a natural disaster. The erosion range is not large, so it should have formed recently and hasn't been discovered by anyone yet. Let's go take a look."
He flashed to the edge of the natural disaster and immediately smelled a pungent odor.
Su Hao frowned and immediately stepped back: "It smells like rotten eggs, isn't it the smell of hydrogen sulfide?"
He thought for a moment, then casually summoned a yellow rat that was being raised in the experimental base. After recording its consciousness information, he threw it into the fog.
The yellow rat screamed sharply, its short limbs constantly stomping and gesturing in mid-air, then its body traced a perfect parabola and entered the thick fog.
Before it even landed, its consciousness was no longer under instinctive control, and its mind was filled with a single voice: "Climb in! Climb in!"
After landing, it ignored the burning sensation on its body, without hesitation, and crawled deeper into the fog.
As it crawled, it gradually became unable to move, its eyes corroded and rotted, losing its vision, its ears followed suit, losing its hearing, its even breathing caused its lungs to corrode and rot, turning into something like charcoal. Its fur gradually blackened and carbonized, its limbs stiffened...
Finally, it lost all signs of life.
And Su Hao got what he wanted. In general, every yellow rat under Su Hao's command could eventually show some value and wouldn't die in vain.
"Acid mist formed by various acidic liquids mixed together?"
Not only that, there were also some other miscellaneous things mixed in, forming the acid mist seen before him, which was highly corrosive. Even a yellow rat with strong vitality couldn't last for more than three minutes inside. It was estimated that ordinary people inside would have the same fate.
However, for Su Hao, these acid mists were no different from air; it didn't matter much. It just smelled a bit pungent, which could be easily solved by using a breath-holding technique.
After activating the 'Fragile Skin Defense', he slowly walked into the acid mist, carefully searching for anything that could be the 'core' while walking, and soon arrived at the center of the fog.
After casually circling around, he saw a huge hollowed-out piece of wood lying on the ground, with one-third of it buried underground. Thick acid mist gushed out crazily from both ends of the hollow, spreading outwards.
The amount of smoke emitted was even greater than what he had seen from a huge chimney on the roadside, billowing out like a rocket's jet.
"Found it, this piece of wood should be the core!"
His Divine Sense focused on the wood, immediately sensing the scene inside the hollow wood: three huge bird eggs, each the size of a basin.
But cracks covered the bird eggs, with one corner already broken, and the insides of the eggs were completely rotten. All the acid mist seen around originated from these three bird eggs.
It seemed that after the bird parents died while foraging, unable to hatch, they eventually rotted away. By a fortunate coincidence, they turned into the core of the disaster.
Su Hao approached slowly, crouched down, and carefully sensed the hollowed-out dry wood and the three rotten bird eggs with his Divine Sense.
Half an hour later, Su Hao finally thoroughly sensed the 'hollowed-out dry wood + three rotten bird eggs' composition of the core, inside and out, and discovered the fluctuation of the Source, mainly coming from the dry wood, while the three bird eggs emitted another special frequency.
"In other words, this piece of dry wood is the 'Source', and the bird eggs are the 'Induction'. The rotten bird eggs were first infected by some kind of force, similar to a special substance like a Source Device, which is the 'Induction', and then emitted Source fields, transforming the surrounding dry wood into Source, jointly forming the 'core' of the natural disaster, spewing out highly corrosive acid mist..."
"Now, as long as I destroy the bird eggs, I can resolve this natural disaster, and the dry wood will transform into Source Beads..."
Su Hao thought for a moment, intending to take this opportunity to conduct some experiments. For example, what would happen if he blocked both ends of the wood and prevented the dense fog from coming out? Or what would happen if he didn't destroy the hollow wood and just took out the bird eggs from inside? Or if one of the three bird eggs were destroyed first, what would happen...
Next, Su Hao executed all the play plans he could think of until the toy couldn't bear the burden anymore and completely broke down.
The core of this disaster, like a mischievous child's toy, couldn't hold on for long and was completely scrapped.
The hollowed-out piece of wood gradually emitted a dazzling light, growing brighter and brighter...
Su Hao closed his eyes, concentrating all his Divine Sense on the hollowed-out wood.
"Whoosh—"
A white light flashed, and the hollowed-out wood turned into a small pile of Source Beads, scattered on the ground.
Su Hao opened his eyes, his gaze sharp as he stared at the pile of Source Beads, murmuring to himself, "Is it like this?"
