My Divine Diary
chapter-526

Su Hao spent a day integrating all seven source beads into his body and then teleported to the temporary base where Yashan and Feng Cheng were waiting.

“Yashan, are you still planning to choose the [Shell People] sequence among the eight mutant sequences?”

Yashan’s eyes lit up, excitedly saying, “Of course, what’s cooler than the Shell People? I’ll choose the Shell People.”

Su Hao nodded and then turned to Feng Cheng, asking, “Feng Cheng, do you want to evolve into a mutant too? There are eight sequences to choose from.”

Feng Cheng looked confused, “What mutant?”

Su Hao didn’t say much and directly sent over eight pictures, along with notes on their respective abilities.

Feng Cheng looked bewildered, “These are the abilities of mutants? I thought Senior Brother’s crystal armor was a magical weapon…”

Yashan immediately interjected, “Hey, Feng Cheng, you don’t understand. Can magical weapons be that cool? How about it, do you want to choose the Shell People sequence too? I’ll design a set of armor for you, guaranteed to be to your liking.”

Feng Cheng looked at Su Hao and said, “I’ll listen to Senior Brother… Boss Wei.”

He had seen the crystal armor of Su Hao and Yashan before, and had coveted it for a long time in the previous world, wishing he could refine a set of crystal armor just like theirs. And he had also researched the refining of armor magical weapons himself, but no matter what he did, he couldn’t get armor like [Child of Fate].

Now that he had the opportunity to get a set, he had already decided on the same style as Su Hao’s, but subconsciously he still hoped to hear Senior Brother’s opinion.

Su Hao immediately saw Feng Cheng’s anxiety and smiled, “Alright then! Let’s all evolve into [Child of Fate], it increases survivability, able to deal with most situations, although the other sequences of level seven mutants are also powerful, their vitality is ultimately lacking.”

Feng Cheng immediately jumped up excitedly, “Great, thank you, Boss Wei!”

Yashan immediately approached, “Feng Cheng, how about I design a set of armor for you?”

Feng Cheng shook his head like a rattle, “Thank you, Boss Yashan, I already have a desired armor design in mind.”

Yashan was surprised, “So fast?”

Feng Cheng was so excited that he trembled a bit, “I’ve already had a desired armor design for over a hundred years.”

After confirming the direction of the evolution for the two, Su Hao turned to ask, “Yashan, have you found the receptor for the corresponding spirit grass?”

Yashan immediately brought out several low-growing plants, saying, “I’ve preliminarily selected six short-cycle fruiting dwarf plants, can’t determine which one is more suitable, need to try them all to find the optimal variety.”

Su Hao checked and found that these plants were indeed very suitable for synthesizing the corresponding spiritual protein, so he said, “Okay.”

…

For the next three days, Su Hao stayed at the base, designing evolution genes for Yashan and Feng Cheng, while cultivating the corresponding spirit grass.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and he returned to Huai Shui Town, just as two teammates came looking for him.

Ah Xing was curious, “Ah Yang, where have you been these days? I’ve come to look for you twice but couldn’t find you.”

Su Hao said, “Just went out for a stroll.”

Ah Wang guessed, “Did you go out to practice spells? Quite diligent.”

Ah Xing said, “I’ve already accepted the new mission. We’ll officially depart tomorrow. Ah Yang, you need to be prepared for long-term mission execution. Killing the source beast is simple, but finding it isn’t.”

Then he handed the corresponding data to Su Hao and said, “This mission is the source beast disaster ‘Thunder in Xilan Village.’ According to the mission description, it’s speculated to be a thunder-elemental source beast. We need to be fully prepared and handle it with caution.”

Su Hao quickly flipped through the data and soon understood the ins and outs of the incident.

Not far from here, Xilan Village was attacked by a source beast yesterday. A source team stationed in the village was completely wiped out, and many villagers were eaten. Most of them escaped and requested the dispatch of a source team to kill the source beast to Huai Shui Town. It is said that the source beast has now taken Xilan Village as its new hunting ground.

However, these lucky villagers couldn’t describe the specific shape of the source beast, only hearing the sound of thunderous roaring. It is estimated that everyone who saw the source beast has already died.

Seeing that Su Hao had finished reading, Ah Xing said, “I was just worried that there wouldn’t be a suitable source beast disaster mission. This thunder in Xilan Village came just in time. According to my speculation, this elemental source beast shouldn’t be too strong. With our team, taking it down should be more than enough, not very dangerous, so there’s no need to worry too much.

The reason why the previous team was wiped out was mainly due to lack of corresponding preparation, hastily engaging in battle, caught off guard. Now that we’re prepared, that source beast is just loot.

What do you think, Ah Yang?”

Although it seemed like asking for Su Hao’s opinion, it was actually asking about Su Hao’s feelings about facing danger.

But for Su Hao, these were not big problems.

Whatever beast it was, if worse comes to worst, he could just flash over and cut off its head. He didn’t believe that with his strength, there would be any source beast that could defeat him.

Su Hao casually said, “No problem, I’m ready anytime, ready to depart anytime.”

Ah Xing was satisfied, “Then it’s decided. We’ll gather at the east gate of the town early tomorrow morning.”

The next day, the three of them gathered on time and set off.

According to the pace of the three, it was estimated that it would take nine hours to reach the mission site.

As they walked, Su Hao suddenly said, “Are we just going to walk like this? It’s too slow. Don’t we have any means of transportation? Like horses or carts?”

Ah Xing shrugged, “Those things are too expensive, the playthings of the rich in the city, we can’t afford them now.”

Ah Wang also said, “Even if we could afford them, we wouldn’t be able to use them. Those carts, running for a day would require swallowing a source bead, which wouldn’t be enough. And look at this bumpy road, those precious things wouldn’t be able to run on it. They’d probably fall apart after one trip.”

Su Hao said to Ah Xing, “Ah Xing, aren’t you a master of the elemental source of air? You can fly, why don’t the three of us just fly over and be done with it?”

Ah Xing widened his eyes and exaggerated, “That’s something high-level air elemental source masters can do, but not me! Flying over would just exhaust me to death, how would I deal with the source beast then? And I fly slowly, drifting over, it’s better to walk.”

Su Hao speechlessly said, “Such a useful ability, but you can only barely float with it, it’s really a waste.”

Ah Xing instinctively retorted, “If you can, then you fly!”

Su Hao said, “Flying for me is easy!”

After speaking, he looked at Ah Wang and asked, “Ah Wang, can your box open anything? How long can it last?”

Ah Wang confidently said, “Of course! Four or five hours is no problem.”

Su Hao smiled and said, “How about the three of us join forces to create a flying device on the spot?”

Ah Xing and Ah Wang couldn’t help but look at Su Hao in astonishment and said, “You can still make flying devices? That’s cutting-edge technology that can’t even be bought, let alone made.”

Su Hao replied, “I know a lot of things, including what you call ‘cutting-edge technology.’ Do you want to give it a try? If it works, our team will have a means of transportation in the future.”

Ah Xing smiled and said, “Alright, let’s give it a try. How do we do it?”

Although Ah Xing and Ah Wang hadn’t known Su Hao for long, they had already harvested many novel things from him, often overturning their previous knowledge, which made them curious about Su Hao: What else does Ah Yang know?

Fueled by this curiosity, they didn’t mind cooperating with Su Hao to try something new.

Ah Xing and Ah Wang’s cooperation exceeded Su Hao’s expectations. He thought he would have to explain to them for a long time before they agreed to cooperate, but it turned out to be a matter of just one sentence.

Indeed, young people are like this. As long as they gain approval, many things don’t need much explanation. Just a simple “let’s do it” is enough to get them to climb out of bed in the middle of the night.

Su Hao’s plan was simple: Ah Wang would use his box to open two simple wings according to the specifications provided by Su Hao, with three seats on the wings…

Then Ah Xing would lift the wings with the three people into the air, and Su Hao would use his “little cannon” as propulsion. Wouldn’t it fly then?

Before long, Ah Xing and Ah Wang looked at the object with an extremely simple structure in front of them: two wings spread out three meters, with three small benches on top, tapered at the front, and a thin rod protruding from the back with a basin-like hood at the end, resembling a swallow.

Ah Xing couldn’t help but ask, “Ah Yang, are you sure this thing can fly?”

Ah Wang added, “Can it carry the three of us?”

Su Hao smiled and said, “Don’t worry! Would I lie to you? As long as the propulsion speed is fast enough, it can carry five people. Sit down and give it a try.”

Ah Xing and Ah Wang exchanged glances, seeing the doubt in each other’s eyes, but still sat down on the front two stools as instructed.

Su Hao sat in the back and said, “Ah Xing, make it float!”

Ah Xing waved his hand, and the airflow surged. The rudimentary flying device carrying the three of them swayed and floated up, reaching an altitude of about twenty meters.

Su Hao said, “Ah Xing, maintain the balance for now. Sit tight, I’m going to start.”

Ah Xing and Ah Wang were amazed, wondering how Su Hao would start it.

Su Hao placed one hand on the body of the device and manipulated the source inside him to flow into the hood at the end of the rod.

“Activate!”

“Boom!”

The three of them felt a slight jolt under their seats as the flying device was pushed forward by the reaction force, gaining an initial velocity.

“Boom!”

Another jolt, and it began to move forward.

“Boom, boom, boom!”

One after another, the speed of the flying device increased, until Su Hao’s voice came, “Ah Xing, you can dispel your ability now. Just maintain the balance left and right.”

Ah Xing and Ah Wang had already widened their eyes, unable to believe it, “This rudimentary thing can actually fly!”

The next moment, they were hit by a strong wind, their meticulously combed hair disheveled in an instant.
