Chapter 20: Heading to Tian Dou
Chapter 20: Heading to Tian Dou
"They're back! They're really back! This...this familiar scent!"
The silver giant eye, which had been trying to maintain a certain proud and profound demeanor, trembled violently in its entire soul after it regained the familiar power of heaven and earth from ten thousand years later!
This torrent of emotions, a mixture of ecstasy and disbelief, erupted in its heart like a geyser!
Only at this moment, only when he truly returned to his familiar world ten thousand years later, did the evil eye spirit now called "Little Silver" truly believe that Huo Yuhao possessed the ability to freely travel between two timelines separated by ten thousand years!
This is not an illusion, not a dream; it is a time travel that overturns its understanding!
At this moment, in Xiao Yin's huge silver-white eyes, Huo Yuhao had become a walking miracle, a living legend, a single light that carried all its hopes and ambitions!
It could hardly contain itself, wanting to immediately express its excitement and submission to Huo Yuhao with the most flattering and loyal attitude.
But it managed to restrain itself in the end, after all, Huo Yuhao had just returned from his travels and seemed to have important matters to attend to.
Huo Yuhao arrived at Leng Yaozhu's office area with ease. She was sitting on the sofa, holding a document in her hand, but her gaze was gentle as she looked at Huo Yuhao, who had suddenly appeared in the room.
Huo Yuhao composed himself and quickly walked up to Leng Yaozhu.
"Aunt Leng, I'm back."
These are just a few simple words, but in this world, only Leng Yaozhu truly understands their meaning.
"As planned, my mother and I have successfully left the White Tiger Duke's Mansion."
"Moreover, from the moment I left, I officially changed my surname to my mother's."
"From now on, my name will be... Huo Yuhao."
"Huo Yuhao..."
Leng Yaozhu repeated it softly, a slight smile playing on her lips.
"Congratulations, Yuhao." Her voice was gentle. "You've done something truly remarkable. It not only means you've broken free from the shackles of the past, but more importantly... you may have changed your mother's fate."
According to the incomplete records of the first tower master's life preserved in the Spirit Pagoda, and the research of later historians, it seems that Huo Yuhao's mother died when he was young.
Moreover, there is a high probability that it occurred during the time at the White Tiger Duke's mansion.
Leng Yaozhu had told Huo Yuhao these things before, which is why he was so determined to take his mother away from the Duke's mansion as soon as possible.
Since his fate has already changed, it is very likely that the fate of his mother, Huo Yun'er, who died young, will also be broken.
Huo Yuhao's eyes revealed deep gratitude. If Leng Yaozhu hadn't told him all this, his mother might have left him forever a few years later.
He will always remember this kindness.
He immediately composed himself, looked at Leng Yaozhu, and asked, "Aunt Leng, you said you'd help me find a suitable blacksmith... have you made any progress yet?"
Since the decision has been made to "wield the sledgehammer" in both worlds, the professional studies in ten thousand years from now must be put on the agenda as soon as possible.
Moreover, Huo Yuhao discovered a phenomenon that was extremely advantageous to him.
He travels between two timelines, but his physical age is still calculated according to the timeline of one world.
This means that he had twice as much time as others out of thin air!
There's absolutely no need to worry that learning a secondary profession will interfere with your soul power cultivation; on the contrary, you can progress in both areas simultaneously and complement each other.
Upon hearing this, Leng Yaozhu revealed a mysterious smile, as if she had expected him to ask this question.
She nodded slightly: "The person has indeed been found."
She paused, looking at Huo Yuhao's eyes that lit up instantly, but then changed the subject slightly, a hint of amusement in her smile.
"However, whether you can get them to agree to take you on as an apprentice and teach you forging skills... that depends on your own abilities."
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao knew that the other party's identity and skill level were absolutely extraordinary, probably at least an eighth-level Saint Craftsman level blacksmith.
His heart pounded with excitement, and a surge of intense curiosity rose within him. He asked, "Aunt Leng, which master craftsman is it?"
Leng Yaozhu smiled, but still didn't tell him directly. Instead, she said, "You should ask your other teacher about this."
Huo Yuhao thought to himself, "Another teacher? Elder Han?"
……
The rooftop of the Spirit Pagoda headquarters is rarely visited by anyone on ordinary days.
At this moment, Huo Yuhao stood on the edge of the rooftop, the gale like an invisible giant hand, blowing his soft black hair back and making it dance wildly.
But he seemed oblivious, his bright eyes wide open, all his attention completely drawn to the colossal figure standing before him!
That was a humanoid mecha that was ten meters tall!
It is a deep and dazzling red color, as if it were forged from solidified flames and lava, reflecting a cold metallic luster in the sunlight.
The mecha has sleek lines, a thick chest armor, long and agile limbs, and seems to be equipped with some kind of propulsion device on its back.
The red metal shell is covered with countless complex and mysterious gold and silver patterns.
They shimmered with light as if they were alive, and just looking at these patterns made one feel dizzy!
Clearly, this is a Red-class mech!
In a world ten thousand years from now, mechs are also divided into multiple levels, from low to high, such as white, yellow, purple, black, and red.
Red-level mechs are top-tier mechs that stand at the pinnacle of the continent, and usually only powerful individuals at the Title Douluo level can possess and pilot them.
As a boy, I naturally have an irresistible love and longing for such ultimate mechanical creations that combine power, technology, and beauty.
Huo Yuhao felt his heart pounding faster and faster, his blood seemingly boiling slightly, and an indescribable excitement and shock filled his heart.
He struggled to tear his gaze away from the red mecha, turned to look at his teacher Han Tianyi beside him, his voice trembling slightly.
"Teacher, this is... your mecha?!"
A faint smile appeared on Han Tianyi's face. He nodded slightly, and his voice clearly reached Huo Yuhao's ears amidst the howling wind.
"Excellent! This is my red-level mecha, named Phantom. Let's ride it to Heaven Dou City!"
The thought of entering the interior of this red-level mecha filled Huo Yuhao with an overwhelming sense of excitement, and his face flushed slightly with excitement.
On the center of the red mecha's chest, the intricate patterns flashed with light, and a hatch silently slid open!
"Let's go."
Han Tianyi's voice rang out again.
Before he finished speaking, Huo Yuhao felt a gentle soul force envelop him, and his body was lifted up as if by an invisible hand, flying steadily toward the open cockpit!
In the blink of an eye, he had passed through the hatch and landed inside the mech.
The cockpit is much more spacious than it appears from the outside; it's not as cramped as I had imagined.
Directly in front is a huge, curved, transparent window, through which you can clearly see the outside scenery.
Below the window is a complex control panel filled with buttons and joysticks.
On both sides were several soul-guided screens of varying sizes, displaying various data and images that Huo Yuhao could not understand.
Huo Yuhao was placed in the passenger seat. He looked around curiously and touched the cold and exquisite control panel.
"Hold on tight."
Han Tianyi's voice came from the driver's seat next to him. He sat in the main control seat and skillfully started the mecha.
The next second, with a soft "hiss," the hatch slammed shut, completely shutting out the outside wind and noise.
The deep roar of the engine could be faintly heard through the bulkhead, and the entire interior of the mech seemed to vibrate slightly.
Immediately afterwards, Huo Yuhao felt a powerful push against his back, and his body involuntarily pressed against the back of the chair!
Through the huge viewing window in front of him, he saw the outside scenery begin to fall rapidly as the mechs soared into the sky!
"boom!!!"
A deafening sonic boom suddenly exploded outside, and the red phantom mech, like a crimson meteor tearing through the sky, broke the sound barrier in an instant at a terrifying speed that was difficult for the naked eye to detect, and rushed towards the northern horizon!
