Chapter 844: The magical creature
"What is this guy doing?!"
Su Hao closed a certain fool's messages. Checking Li Xin's location, a coordinate popped out, "Wait... Damn! This brat is outside the city?"
Su Hao was shocked, looking at the coordinate.
Li Xin was actually outside Huangliang City right now!
What's he doing here?
Su Hao directly launched his 3D modeling and scanned around. Huangliang City couldn't be modeled, but every action outside the city can be built in the temporary world model. Soon, Su Hao saw Li Xin, and his jaw almost fell.
"!!!"
"It's actually true!" Su Hao's eyes opened wide.
Swish!
His figure vanished.
Su Hao quickly sprinted out of the city.
He felt that each time Li Xin appears, he would bring him a surprise. Under Synchronous Payback, he could clearly see that behind Li Xin, a terrifying ferocious beast was chasing him with strong killing intent. Big dog? When he saw that ferocious beast, Su Hao really wanted to curse at Li Xin's face for a second.
Big dog, your head!
That is obviously not a dog but a wolf! Does your dog at home look like that?!
You thought it was a husky?!
Although the distance was far, fortunately, Li Xin was running around Huangliang City. Su Hao hurried over from the other side of the city. If he were running in the opposite direction, even one hundred Su Hao's wouldn't be able to save him.
In three seconds, Su Hao was out of the city!
The distance from Li Xin was getting closer and closer. That big dog behind him, no, that ferocious beast was about to reach Li Xin as if it could bite him at any moment.
Three more seconds passed!
When Li Xin was just about to get bitten, Su Hao finally saw these two figures and quickly summoned his Shadowless God Needle without hesitation!
Swish!
Shadowless God Needle sped towards them.
The beast which was about to swallow Li Xin suddenly got startled. With its fur standing upright all over its body, it halted while staring at the Shadowless God Needle that appeared out of thin air.
A perfect boundary spirit!
It recognized it.
"Howl~!"
With a howl, it glared cautiously at Su Hao from a distance and finally fled quickly before Su Hao arrived. It was actually running even faster than during the chase earlier.
"Huh?"
Li Xin apparently didn't notice the flashing silver needle. When he saw the wolf suddenly turn around and run away, he was stunned for a second before proudly declaring, "Hahahaha, it actually got scared of me and fled. A silly big dog, you actually dare to chase this young master. I dare you to come back, and I assure you that I won't kill you."
Slap!
Su Hao hit him with his palm in annoyance.
"Ouch, who dare to sneak attack this young master?!"
Li Xin raged. When he turned his head, he was shocked to see Su Hao, "Oh, Big Boss is here. Did you see that big, stupid dog get scared away by me?"
Su Hao recalled his Shadowless God Needle. How did this brat able to survive in this era of origin ability with such IQ?
"Huh?"
Li Xin finally saw it and then came to his senses, "So it was Big Boss who saved me. Hehe, well that big dog is pretty smart. It actually got scared away when we have an advantage in number."
Su Hao: "..."
What did it have to do with more people?
"How did you trigger that thing?" Su Hao quickly shifted the topic. He felt that if he's to continue such a conversation, his IQ will fall quickly.
"Oh, you mean that dog?" Li Xin scratched his head and then said in a bad mood, "Not sure. When I was looking for treasures, this damn big dog appeared out of nowhere and chased me. Too bad, it was not obedient. If it's to stand there for me to hit for a bit, I can easily kill it in minutes... Just a damn big dog, and it dared to act this arrogant!"
Su Hao rolled his eyes.
Nonsense, who would stand there for you to hit?
However...
Something was amiss!
Since when was there a beast at the world realm in the Federation?
Su Hao suddenly realized this problem, and it's a terrifying wolf! If he's to measure with a beast's standard, it should be an emperor rank beast. Its strength is unimaginable! Such a character, how could it appear in the Federation's territory? Su Hao faintly felt that something was wrong. Could it be the berserk beasts had finally taken action?
"What treasure are you looking for?" Su Hao squinted his eyes.
"Nitai artifact." Li Xin became excited again when he talked about it.
Su Hao wiped off his sweat. Such a change of emotion is really too quick. Just a second ago, he wasn't happy, yet now he is excited.
"You're searching for a Nitai artifact?"
"Yes, yes." Li Xin sounded very excited, "They said that there is a powerful Nitai artifact here. I even bought a treasure detector. It has a needle that points to the direction of Nitai artifacts."
Having said that, Li Xin actually pulled out a compass-like tool.
"Have a look, the pointer above will show the location of Nitai artifacts." Li Xin was full of spirit as if he was playing with an interesting toy.
"En..." Su Hao looked at this obvious fake tool and then sighed, "Lead me to the place where you got chased."
"Great!"
Li Xin was so lively, and there were not even any signs of him being chased by a world esper. Having seen this, Su Hao was speechless, "When you're in danger, it's not a good idea to use your communication device. Plus, you only had a few seconds of time! Next time, team up with someone or else who will save you?"
"Isn't Big Boss here now?"
"I just happened to be nearby."
"Haha, Big Boss, this is called the main character's halo. Even if you're not nearby, there will be others."
"Nonsense! When you forward the message, don't you notice that out of 200 people, 100 of them probably blocked you. As for the remaining 90 people, they are a thousand miles away from you. The remaining 10 contacts are invalid since they changed their number..."
"Huh? Someone changed the number?"
"That is not the key point!"
"Oh, Big Boss. What are you trying to say earlier then?"
"Forget about it. Just consider it as if I never mentioned anything."
"..."
The west side of Huangliang City, when Li Xin took Su Hao to the place where he got chased, Su Hao felt like this was a deep pain in the ass.
He would have never imagined that Li Xin was actually digging the wall!
Yes!
He went and dug a hole out of the wall!
Less than 100 meters on the edge of the city wall, there was a giant pit dug by Li Xin. Su Hoa stared blankly at this pit, which was a few meters in depth, "Why did you dig a hole for?"
"To find Nitai artifact."
Li Xin pointed at the pointer of the tool. His face flushed with excitement, "Look, this is the place where it points! This position must have a Nitai artifact. This is my very first treasure that I found since I embarked on a journey to gain experience! I need to find it since it has such a significant meaning to me."
"Let me have a look."
Su Hao held that fake tool.
Regrading treasure seeker, he had come across it before. The pointer would point the direction, while its reaction amplitude would indicate the approximate distance. However, it's not something that this tool in his hand can compete with.
"How much did you bought this treasure finder for?"
"1 million star dollars. How is it? Cheap right? Big Boss, let me tell you, it was on a huge sale when I bought it, and I even got free gifts such as a kettle, mouse, and shoe insole..."
"..."
Su Hao looked at Li Xin's excited expression and couldn't bear to tell him that he got cheated. Also, what's with that kettle, mouse, and insole?
Looking at the mall address engraved on the tool, Su Hao silently used his communication device to hack the store. All the goods in this black mall were suddenly all priced at one dollar, and the sales volume increased sharply. When they finally reacted to what happened, the mall won't be far from bankruptcy...
Of course, they were clueless that the reason they were hacked was because they had cheated some random fool.
"Cheap." Su Hao took the tool and changed its direction. The shaking pointer suddenly stopped. When Su Hao turned to aim at the city wall, the pointer began to shake madly again.
"How is it? There is something, right?" Li Xin asked excitedly.
"Is there really a Nitai artifact?" Su Hao pondered. Although it's a counterfeit, the basic functions are still there. This crazy movement of the pointer indicated that there is definitely something wrong...
Wait!
Su Hao suddenly thought of something thrilling.
Nitai artifact...
Treasure detector...
Wolf...
Could it be?
Su Hao swallowed his saliva for a bit. Activating his energy scanning again, when he looked at the city, he felt a strong sense of being distanced and also a hint of hostility. Yes, the city was expressing hostility towards him.
That damn wolf...
It's the city itself!
It's this giant Nitai artifact!
The reason the treasure finder's pointer moved was because it sensed this!
"Yeah, how could I forget about it." Su Hao muttered to himself.
Being nurtured for twenty years, it already had a soul? Although there were still some hints of a semi-conscious state, there is no doubt that this city has a soul. It probably sensed that this fool Li Xin was disrupting its foundation that it couldn't help but take action! What a magical era this is.
"Fill back the pit." Su Hao instructed.
"But Big Boss, it's a Nitai artifact." Li Xin muttered.
"Fill it first, I'll tell you later." Su Hao said nonchalantly.
"Oh." Li Xin nodded, and as his brutal strength erupted, he quickly filled the giant pit before they both left. Sure enough, Su Hao could feel that the hostility of the entire city towards him and Li Xin gradually disappearing.
As he expected...
This is a new soul.
Its mentality is so simple. If you're good to me, I will be good to you. If you harm me, I will harm you.
This city actually did have a soul.
After Su Hao explained to Li Xin, Li Xin's eyes opened wide. Obviously, with his IQ level, it's difficult to understand the soul's birth from a Nitai artifact's 20 years of cultivation. However, Su Hao didn't intend to explain that to him, "Two Nitai artifacts gave birth to it."
"Wow, so awesome!"
Li Xin sighed, "Nitai artifact can really give birth to its child?"
"Of course, plants can even turn into beasts. Why can't Nitai artifacts?"
"True."
Su Hao's words didn't make sense at all, but that didn't hinder Li Xin's interest. It was his first to meet a Nitai artifact with life, and for it to be able to bear a child, that's an amazing thing. From start to the end, he kept thinking about these in excitement. As for treasure hunting...
He had long forgotten about it.
"Is it really good to lie to him like that?"
In Kingdom of Heaven, Ping Yang really couldn't stand it anymore.
"Why don't you explain it to him?" Su Hao casually said.
"Pretend that I never mentioned anything." Ping Yang decisively rejected.
