My Divine Diary
chapter-528

After the Source/Origin Beast dies completely, it will form Source Stones inside its body.

The specific locations are uncertain, but they can be found by perception, without missing any.

This time, there were fifty-two Source Stones harvested, twice as many as those obtained from the lava disaster.

Seventeen stones per person, with Su Hao taking the remaining one according to the old rule, but as usual, he would treat them to a meal when they returned.

On the way back aboard the aircraft, Ah Xing couldn’t help but exclaim, “Ah Yang, your ‘precise detonation’ is simply invincible! Whoever you target dies without hesitation. From now on, you’re the ace fighter of our Yang Wang Star Gazing team.”

Su Hao, unable to stand their surprised expressions, calmly said, “It’s just some small tricks. If you guys develop your abilities properly, you’ll be much more powerful than this.”

Ah Xing helplessly said, “It’s not that easy!”

Su Hao, not being a Origin Mage of the Elemental Law, didn’t understand, so he couldn’t provide the corresponding guidance; he could only contemplate on his own.

Ah Wang also asked, “Ah Yang, can you really sense Source Beasts ten thousand meters away?”

Su Hao replied, “I should be able to! You have to try it to know for sure.”

Then Ah Wang curiously asked, “If it’s closer, can you sense beautiful girls?”

Su Hao nearly kicked Ah Wang off the aircraft.

He was really speechless about these two teammates who were obsessed with beautiful girls, but then again, wasn’t it normal? Who wasn’t like this when they were young?

Two young bachelors in their early twenties, if their minds didn’t think about cute girls, then that would be abnormal!

Unfortunately, Su Hao had long passed the stage of uncontrolled admiration for beautiful girls. Now, his joy came from exploring the unknown mysteries of the universe!

Isn’t witnessing a corner of the cosmic miracle a wonderful thing?

Just like now, being reincarnated into this world and witnessing the existence of ‘Source’, the sense of novelty gained from it was irreplaceable by anything else.

Of course, for him, witnessing was just one aspect; the real excitement came from the harvest.

After returning to Huai Shui Town, Su Hao treated the two to a good meal at the old place.

As they were about to disperse, Ah Xing said seriously, “Ah Wang, Ah Yang, you need to be mentally prepared for the next mission, a strange disaster! The specific time is unknown. Once we receive the mission, we will depart immediately.”

Ah Wang nodded solemnly.

Su Hao smiled and said, “I’m getting more and more curious.”

…

This mission unexpectedly came quickly.

After a brief rest, Su Hao was teleported to the temporary experimental base the next day to continue the unfinished genetic design and cultivation work.

One day later, the first phase of genetic modification fluid for “Shell People” was successfully cultivated for Yashan and Feng Cheng.

Of course, this genetic modification fluid not only allowed the two to evolve into “Shell People” but also changed their appearances, commonly known as plastic surgery, ensuring that no one would recognize them in the future.

After one injection each, four to five hours later, the two woke up.

Yashan had always been indifferent to “Shell People,” calmly accepting his own changes. It was Feng Cheng, who was covered in scales for the first time, excitedly shouting and smashing himself with his fists after transforming into “Rampager.” He shouted in excitement.

Seeing the successful completion of their evolution, not only did they not feel weak due to the consumption of a large amount of blood and energy, but they were also full of energy. Su Hao lightly rubbed his chin, thinking to himself, “Perhaps, I can try skipping some stages of evolution, such as evolving directly from a first-level esper to a third-level esper, then from a third-level esper directly to a fifth-level esper, and then to a seventh level… This way, it can save a lot of time.”

Previously, Su Hao had experimented with skipping levels of evolution, but the mortality rate was terrifyingly high, almost like facing certain death. The reason for this was that the body’s energy was insufficient to support the consumption, causing the evolution to stop halfway and leading to genetic collapse and death.

Now the situation was different. Yashan and Feng Cheng had already begun to refine their blood and energy, accumulating a large amount of energy in their bodies, enough to support the evolution directly from the first level to the third level.

In other words, the success rate of evolution should be extremely high.

Most importantly, if they failed and died, would it matter? No, it wouldn’t. They could just find two other destined individuals to awaken.

Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but smile.

No longer paying attention to the two who were fooling around and fighting each other, he turned to study the “Spirit Grass”!

The cultivation of Spirit Grass was also a top priority, involving whether he could cultivate to the Divine Transformation Realm as soon as possible, thereby obtaining the “Divine Sense” as a tool to analyze the “Source.”

Three days later, Su Hao summoned Yashan.

“Yashan, the genetic modification of these six plants has been completed. The rest is up to you.”

Yashan patted his chest and said, “Leave it to me!”

After some thought, Su Hao teleported back home. As soon as he appeared, he saw the big dog staring at him with eyes the size of copper bells. He couldn’t help but smile and said, “Big Dog, come, I’ll take you to a good place today.”

The big dog immediately bounced up happily and ran downstairs with a “whoosh.” After waiting for a while and not seeing his owner coming down, he ran up the stairs again and poked his head out from the stairway, looking around at Su Hao. When he saw Su Hao coming over, he got excited again and ran downstairs.

This repeated several times.

When Su Hao reached the first floor, he found that the big dog had already opened the door and was wagging its tail outside, looking at Su Hao.

Su Hao had been reincarnated into this world for a year and a half, and this was the first time he had taken the big dog out. Obviously, this big dog had been holding it in for a long time.

Upon learning that his owner was going to take him out for a walk, the big dog got so excited that all the hair on its body stood up.

But what it didn’t know was that its owner was going to leave it with someone else.

This dog’s energy was exceptionally vigorous. Even when taken out of Huai Shui Town to the temporary base ten thousand meters away, it ran happily all the way without panting.

After bringing the big dog into the base, Su Hao said to Yashan, “For the next period of time, I may be going out for a long-term mission. You just need to take care of this big dog, don’t let it go hungry, and don’t worry about anything else.”

The big dog froze, wondering if its young master was going to sell it to a dog meat vendor?

Su Hao said, “Big dog, just stay here and wait for me to come back during this time.”

The big dog whimpered sadly.

Yashan asked, “Boss Wei, when are you going on an external mission? When can Feng Cheng and I go out on missions with you?”

He was extremely curious about the outside world and really wanted to go on missions with his boss Wei to solve various disasters. However, he was always rejected by boss Wei, the reason being that he hadn’t learned the common language of this world yet.

To this, Yashan could only say, “It’s so hard!”

Learning a language was like an invisible cage, trapping him within this small base, not knowing when he would be free.

Even harder than Yashan was Feng Cheng. That guy was even more miserable when it came to learning languages. He would forget the words he learned, then forget them again, and the cycle would repeat endlessly, causing him unbearable pain.

Su Hao laughed and said, “Let’s talk about it when you guys can fluently communicate in the common language of this world!”

Sure enough, Yashan sighed with frustration. This brain of his was not useful at all!

The only consolation was that Feng Cheng’s brain seemed to be even worse than his.

Su Hao stayed in the base for another two days, conducting various experiments with Source Stones and observing the characteristics of the “Source.” However, he didn’t make any special discoveries; he just became more skilled in using the Source.

Two days later, Su Hao teleported back home and found a note in the door crack. He opened it and read.

It said: “The third mission has been accepted. See you at the usual place tomorrow morning.”

“Ah strange disaster?”

Since coming to this world, he had heard rumors about strange disasters many times, but he had never truly witnessed the power of a strange disaster. He was extremely curious, and now he finally had the opportunity to experience it. He couldn’t help but feel a bit excited.

Although strange disasters were very dangerous, who was he? Would he be afraid of such trivial dangers?

To be honest, even if he stood still and let someone stab him with a knife, there weren’t many who could actually harm him.

The next morning, Su Hao arrived at the east gate of the town and found his two teammates already waiting there.

The two stood tall beside the gate, leaning against the door frame, each carrying a bulging travel bag. They repeatedly tidied their hair, hoping to show their best side to any passing girls.

Su Hao couldn’t help but say, “Did I arrive late? Sorry for keeping you waiting!”

Ah Xing shook his head and said, “No, it’s not that. It’s just that the two of us didn’t sleep well last night, so we woke up early today.”

“Ah Yang, are you really prepared? Facing a strange disaster, it’s not enough to rely solely on hot blood. If you’re unlucky, no matter how much I assure you, you might still die inside.

Maybe you think you’re powerful enough to defeat any enemy, but dealing with strange disasters requires not only strength but also insight and luck.

In a strange disaster, strength may not necessarily be useful. Even if you can crush mountains with a punch and overturn seas with your hand, it will be useless under certain mechanisms. It’s unreasonable and unpredictable.”

Ah Xing paused for a moment and continued, “So, Ah Yang, you can still change your mind now. It’s better to accumulate more experience and go later.”

With such a serious tone, it was both to prepare Su Hao for the possibility of not returning and to express their own reluctance as they approached departure.

Ah Xing and Ah Wang were actually afraid too. They didn’t know what they would face this time, nor did they know if they would have a chance to return to this town after leaving.

Su Hao smiled and said confidently, “Of course, I’m prepared. We can leave at any time. Ah Xing, Ah Wang, you guys can rest assured. Nothing will happen no matter what. In a way, I’m scarier than the disaster itself. If it sees me, it better run away.”

Seeing Su Hao’s confident expression, Ah Xing burst into laughter, “Alright, let’s go! Only those who are confident and fearless can overcome strange disasters.”

Ah Wang, on the other hand, sighed silently, looking back at Huai Shui Town and silently said to himself, “I hope I can come back and see my beloved girl again. As long as I can come back alive, I will definitely confess to you! Definitely!”

“Let’s go, we’ll talk as we walk!”

Ah Xing turned around and led the way out of the town, reaching into his backpack and pulling out a piece of paper. After unfolding it, he said, “The strange disaster we’re facing this time is called the ‘Mysterious Event of Weeping Willow Mountain’!”
