My Divine Diary

Su Hao no longer paid attention on the second day of the competition, choosing to optimize “radar’s” functions instead. For example, marking friendlies with a green ring, strangers with a gray ring, enemies with a blood red etc.

After going through a few days of fusion, his network formed by his perception rune had slowly taken effect. Not only did his perception range increase to two hundred meters, he also grasped the way to control his perception “Radar”.

He could control the blood qi in the rune based on a certain flowpath, there by increasing his perception range. After attempts, his current full strength at its max range perception could sense blood qi within a thousand meters. Of course, the further it was, the blurrier the perception.

And once Su Hao no longer proactively controlled the blood qi, his perception range would return to the two hundred meters.

“I didn’t choose wrong. This is a life-saving magic technique! From now on, my life preserving abilities will be much stronger!”

However, Su Hao greedily eyed the other beast veins stored in the third floor of the Lingyun Library and wanted to collect and record all of them for research. But there was an old man who was constantly on watch all year round and there was no way to sneak past him to enter and peek at the runes. More importantly, he didn’t want to run afoul of the teaching staff.

The reason for why he was greedy for the other runes was because he had always had doubts on why runes could produce such strange phenomena. What secrets were hidden in the complex structures.

If he couldn’t figure out the reason, his heart would feel as if there was an uncomfortable itch.

Although he had the perception rune now, he simply was unable to retrieve any useful information from the complex lines.

“I have to get more runes. With enough data, I’ll be able to unravel the hidden secrets.”

Su Hao firmly believed no matter how mysterious the runes were, they had to follow certain principles and laws of the universe. Special effects did not happen without reason. As long as he continually studied new knowledge, there would be a day he could unravel the mysteries.

Su Hao first took an inventory of his remaining money. 2 gold yuan 35 silver yuan.

Then he walked out of the academy and wandered around the streets and alleys of Lingyun Town.

Thinking of Wu Yuntian’s worn out set of clothes which hardly blocked the winter winds, he felt cold just looking at him. So he first went to a clothing store to pick out two sets of clothes. One for summer, one for winter.

He picked some good quality ones and spent a total of 20 silver yuan.

Thinking about it, he then also bought a quilt, spending another 10 silver yuan.

Then he went to the weapons store and picked out some maintenance and repair supplies for weapons and armor, which cost 35 silver yuan.

Finally, he went to buy a lot of spices and salts for cooking plus a fruit wine, spending 10 silver yuan.

In total he spent 75 silver yuan.

Once he returned to the warriors academy, the large bag on his back was almost three times the size of his body.

……

The next day, after Su Hao had packed away his belongings, carrying a huge backpack, he met with little fatty and He Qingqing outside He Qingqing’s dormitory.

Little fatty and He Qingqing saw Su Hao’s large pack with mouths wide open. Little fatty said in shock: “Xiangwu, what are you carrying! Are you moving out?”

Little fatty and He Qingqing’s packs also weren’t small, but the differences in size between theirs and Su Hao’s was obvious.

He Qingqing said: “Xiangwu, is your bag too heavy? I have less stuff, I can help you carry some.”

Su Hao adjusted his pack and center of gravity, the smiled: “No need. It’s just some daily necessities I’m bringing for my father. This weight can be considered as much.”

The pack’s weight really wasn’t worth mentioning to Su Hao. He could even run laps around Lingyun Town while carrying the pack without breaking a sweat.

Little fatty made a difficult face: “I forgot to buy my dad gifts. What should I do?”

He Qingqing also struggled: “I forgot too…”

Su Hao said: “No worries. What I have here is for house use, it doesn’t count as a gift. Let’s go!”

The three arrived at the academy gates and immediately discovered He Jianyong and Old Li were waiting outside the gates. The two were gleefully watching the three and kept waving.

However to Su Hao’s surprise, he discovered a familiar figure.

“Father?”

It was Wu Yuntian. He had thought Wu Yuntian wouldn’t come.

“Dad!”

He Qingqing called in delight, flying forward and grabbing onto He Jianyong’s arms.

He Jianyong dotingly looked his his grown-up daughter and couldn’t help but sigh. She had already grown so much and become more reserved. If it had been the past several years, she would have jumped and hung onto his neck when he came.

He Jianyong reached out to take He Qingqing’s pack and said: “Qingqing has grown quite a bit!”

Little fatty was evidently more shy. He proudly walked up to Old Li’s side and said: “Dad, do you see any difference in me?”

Old Li reached out and patted little fatty’s head, took the package. He joked: “What else can you be? Your still this old man’s offspring!”

Little fatty was frantic: “Can’t you tell? I’m already a mid-class common warrior!”

The his head was patted again by his father.

On the other hand, Su Hao was much calmer.

Su Hao stepped forward with joy: “Father, how has this year been for you?”

Wu Yuntian still had that indifferent look. He carefully measured up Su Hao. Seeing the son who was still not as tall as his shoulder looking so energetic, he couldn’t help but nod: “Not bad.”

After saying that, he reached out to grab the huge pack from Su Hao.

Su Hao immediately took a step back: “No need. I can do it myself. It’s all quilts, not heavy.”

Wu Yuntian nodded.

He Qingqing saw that Su Hao was carrying his own pack, so how could she let her dad help carry hers?

So she immediately took her pack from He Jianyong’s hands and said: “Dad, give me back my bag. I’ll carry it myself!”

Little fatty embarrassedly scratched his head and copied them: “Dad, I should carry my own after all!”

Su Hao was speechless. Even carrying a pack could be blown out of proportion. Indeed worlds with human beings were terrifying.

He Jianyong speechlessly looked at his empty hands. He exchanged looks with Old Li and Wu Yuntian and shook his head: “Let’s go!”

The six of them left the city, looked back at the majestic city walls, no longer paused, and directly went along the path towards Cha Mountain Outpost.

As they got further from Lingyun Town, the three soldiers raised their vigilance, wary of any fierce beasts that may suddenly appear.

Although this area was still within the jurisdiction of Lingyun Town, occasionally, there would still be elite-level fierce beasts prowling for food nearby. Commoners often were attacked and killed.

Suddenly, Su Hao frowned. “Radar” showed that 200 meters ahead, there were ten unknown blood qi signals. They were positioned on both sides of the road, standing still.

Wrong. They weren’t all strangers. There were two that had been recorded.

Su Hao quickly flipped through the information. A mid-level common warrior Dan Sui. The other was a passerby he had seen outside the academy, a high-level elite warrior.

They were aiming for him!

A month ago, he had beaten and mocked the third grader Dan Sui. Now they must be here for revenge. Judging by the positions, they were here to attack and kill him in the wilderness.

Su Hao immediately checked the information on the other eight people. They were all high-level elite warriors.

“What to do?” Su Hao slowed down and thought of countermeasures.

If it was him alone, he’d directly go there. He’d be enough by himself. But now there were the extra two that couldn’t protect themselves, little fatty and He Qingqing, making things troublesome.

The two of had no chance of surviving an ambush from high-level elite warriors.

It wasn’t a problem for him to hit or kill people, but at the same time, he had to take care of little fatty and He Qingqing. With his current combat experience, he wasn’t too confident.

Wu Yuntian noticed Su Hao’s abnormality. Turning around: “What’s wrong, Xiangwu?”

TLN: Happy New Years! This will likely be my last chapter for a while. Work has picked up again and between that and my other hobbies, I don’t have much time left to translate.
