Chapter 547 New Discoveries, Vitality and Origin
Su Hao couldn’t remember how many bases he had built or destroyed.
He had grown accustomed to moving bases.
Everything in sight now was ‘external to the body.’
As long as it looked comfortable and far from human habitation, he felt it could become a new foothold.
Yashan and Feng Cheng felt the same way, not seeing anything wrong with wandering everywhere.
As for the concept of ‘home’ that was usually mentioned…
They hadn’t had any ‘home’ for a long time.
“It’s just a pity for those machines that were so hard to build. Our enhancing medicine will be cut off for a while again,” Feng Cheng sighed repeatedly.
Yashan smiled, “I have some connections over at the Evergreen Factory. Getting another set of equipment shouldn’t be a problem, but it will take some time. There’s no other way. When faced with this kind of situation, all we can do is wait.”
Thinking about it, Yashan handed a positioning stone to Su Hao, saying, “Boss Wei, I’ll go place an order at the Evergreen Factory now. When the location is confirmed, I’ll teleport back. This way, we can save some time.”
Su Hao took the positioning stone, “Alright!”
Yashan turned to Feng Cheng and instructed, “Feng Cheng, do you still remember the ‘Large-Scale Base Construction Technique’ I taught you before? This time, the opportunity to build a new base falls on you. Do well.”
Feng Cheng excitedly replied, “Alright, Yashan boss, you can rest assured. I’ll even make your bed higher and wider!”
Yashan chuckled and flew away.
Su Hao and Feng Cheng flew non-stop in another direction.
Curious, Feng Cheng asked, “Boss Wei, where are we going to build the new base?”
Su Hao replied, “Let’s find an island overseas!”
Compared to other places, islands seemed quieter. No matter what experiments they conducted, there would be no worries. The key was that he could freely teleport back and forth. In terms of distance, it wouldn’t be a problem anywhere.
Feng Cheng’s eyes lit up, “Island, I like it.”
Three days later, Su Hao and Feng Cheng found a small unmanned island overseas with a maximum diameter of thirty kilometers. They decided to make this place their new experimental base and casually named it Huludao, because it looked like a gourd.
Feng Cheng rolled up his sleeves, proudly displayed his ‘Large-Scale Base Construction Technique’ in front of Su Hao, and after receiving Boss Wei’s satisfied approval, happily flew to the nearby coastal city to purchase supplies.
Nowadays, in addition to taking care of Boss Wei and Yashan’s daily lives, Feng Cheng also has to take care of the cultivation and maintenance of various spiritual herbs, making his days very busy yet fulfilling, finding joy in it all.
With everything arranged properly, Su Hao took out the latest acquired source device, the ‘Processing Blade,’ and placed it on the experimental platform, carefully examining it for a moment.
The source device looked no different from ordinary objects, but the feeling it emitted was vastly different from ordinary objects, as if it radiated a wave, seemingly wanting to influence the surrounding things.
This ‘source device’ was very dangerous, but the level of danger was still within Su Hao’s tolerance range, so he planned to take advantage of this time to study what exactly this source device could do.
It was said that the source device would inherit some abilities from mysterious disasters.
As for the direction of the research, he already had a plan in mind.
“Ka ka ka!”
In the blink of an eye, Su Hao’s figure soared, a sleek and domineering armor enveloping him, his feet surging with golden armor, quickly spreading outwards, turning the surrounding kilometer into crystal.
The conversion armor beside Su Hao surged and quickly transformed into a humanoid shape, the crystal humanoid arm raised and stretched out, fingers molding as if real human palms.
He looked satisfactorily at his masterpiece, smiling as he disappeared on the spot, then teleporting five hundred meters away, still within the range of the conversion armor.
Next, he would control the dummy to operate the source device ‘Processing Blade’ for experimentation.
Within his domain of golden armor, any experiment could be conducted. Most importantly, with the source device now five hundred meters away, his safety was greatly assured.
Step one: Manipulate the dummy to pick up the source device and casually manipulate it to see if it can trigger any functions.
Soon, Su Hao came to a conclusion: No!
Step two: Input a small amount of ‘source’ into it and attempt to activate the source device.
Source input successful, the ‘Processing Blade’ lit up, seemingly activated, but nothing happened.
Step three: Create more dummies around the source device, then let them run around to see if they can activate the source device.
Conclusion: No!
Step four: Control the dummy to rotate the source device in its hand, simulating a processing scene.
Then the dummies running around were attacked, shattering on the ground. The arm rotating the ‘Processing Blade,’ because it was in motion, also suffered a certain degree of attack. Conclusion: Indiscriminate!
At this point, a slight smile crept onto Su Hao’s lips.
After conducting a series of experiments, Su Hao finally gained basic control over the use of this source device: “It’s done! However, compared to mysterious disasters, this source device lacks the ‘static disaster’ and only retains the effect of ‘dynamic disaster.’ Not only has its attack power weakened significantly, but its range has also been reduced to fifty meters.”
However, Su Hao was not attached to the power it brought; no matter how strong the destructive power was, it would never surpass his own.
What he cared about was that by mastering the source device, he to some extent mastered the ‘source’!
The reason was simple: the source couldn’t be recorded into the ball space, but the source device could, meaning that even the smallest structure of the source device could be magnified and restored by him.
Studying the source device could also be considered as preliminary knowledge of studying the source.
“However, let’s not rush to record the source device for now. Let me continue with some other experiments, such as whether my vitality can activate the source device?”
With this in mind, Su Hao eagerly injected his vitality into the source device.
After a moment, Su Hao felt somewhat disappointed: “It doesn’t work, after all?”
Actually, this was within Su Hao’s expectations. Not working would be normal, right? If vitality could activate the source device, the amount of information contained within would be unimaginable!
Su Hao chuckled: “It seems I was expecting too much…”
At this moment, Su Hao’s expression slightly froze.
“No! There’s a reaction!”
Without hesitation, he appeared directly next to the source device, staring wide-eyed at the ‘Processing Blade’ firmly held in the dummy’s hand.
The blade shimmered with an extremely faint light, almost imperceptible without careful observation. As Su Hao continued to input his vitality, the faint light showed a trend of becoming stronger.
Excitement filled Su Hao’s eyes: “My vitality can actually activate the source device… Why?”
He immediately entered the ball space, retrieved the information of the vitality he had just inputted, and examined what changes had occurred to the vitality when it was inputted into the source device.
After a moment, Su Hao exited the ball space and muttered to himself, “The vast majority of vitality had no reaction, but a very small number of vitality directly disintegrated and disappeared. In other words, the reaction of the source device is related to this part of disintegrated vitality.”
Su Hao pondered for a moment, then suddenly increased the input of vitality, saturating the source device with vitality and continuously recording the information of the source device into the ball space.
After a full minute, Su Hao disconnected the input of vitality and entered the ball space to check the information. After a long time, Su Hao came out and murmured, “It seems that the source device continuously emits a special force field, irradiating my vitality for a long time, causing a very small amount of vitality to undergo some kind of change, disappearing without a trace, not even able to capture what it turned into.”
What did it turn into?
He vaguely had a guess: turned into the source!
It could be completely understood in this way: under the special radiation, a small probability of vitality transformed into ‘source,’ this extremely special thing, and then these small amounts of source activated the source device.
That is, what Su Hao saw, a faint light appearing on the source device after inputting vitality for a period of time.
If Su Hao’s guess was correct, then he would come to a conclusion that even shocked himself: vitality could be transformed into the source!
Could this be possible? He wasn’t sure if this was possible.
All the vitality in his body was refined bit by bit by himself, completely under his conscious control. He knew exactly what his vitality looked like. How could it possibly turn into this inexplicably strange thing like ‘source’?
But, what if his vitality really could turn into the source?
The amount of information contained in this was unimaginable!
