Douluo Continent: The Book of Witness and Peerless Tang Sect

Chapter 130 The Mind Train Goes Parallel

“You know Cai Tou, this is not easy to do either.” Lin Zhengze did not refute Cai Tou’s suggestion, but he pointed out the objective difficulty of doing so. “We knew before that the army of the natives of the Panlong Realm continent was mainly composed of infantry, and the wilderness outside the cities was fraught with danger.”

The speed and safety of infantry marching long distances must be taken into account. Otherwise, it's entirely possible that a month will pass in the real world and our reinforcements in the game still won't arrive, or that reinforcements will arrive but be reduced to less than half their original strength, leaving us with less than one-tenth of our fighting capacity.

"We must adjust our soul tool manufacturing plan, not just simply abandon those positional offensive soul tools."

We need to produce enough vehicle soul tools within a day, while simultaneously manufacturing the city defense soul tools.

Since He Caitou proposed to focus his work on securing external assistance, he naturally had a plan for how to obtain such assistance.

"The vehicle soul tool I'm talking about isn't a flight soul tool; we don't have the production capacity for flight soul tools. In fact, the vehicle soul tool I'm talking about isn't even a complete soul tool; all we need is an engine."

The native humans of the Panlong Realm continent certainly have few opportunities to tame magical beasts for transportation, but they do possess vehicle-making technology.

With the added strength and power of martial artists, the production speed of wooden carts is actually quite fast. We only need to use soul tools to solve their problem of insufficient animal power, and then the infantry can be transformed into motorized infantry.

As for the security issue, there's really nothing we can do about it. We can only hope that the indigenous army will resolve this problem itself during their march.

"The security issue shouldn't be too significant. The native human inhabitants of the Panlong Realm are quite familiar with the environment surrounding their cities. If they agree to send troops to aid Beishuang City, it means they are confident they can handle the risks along the way."

As long as we can maintain the physical strength of our military personnel, the reduction in combat effectiveness will not be too severe.

However, our task in creating soul tools has become even more challenging. It seems that I, who am still somewhat useful in soul tool creation, can no longer run around as an envoy to gather reinforcements.

San Shi! The errand-running task is entrusted to you.

After saying just one sentence at the beginning, Xu Sanshi didn't get a word in edgewise, as his familiarity with soul tools was indeed limited. However, just as the conversation was about to end, Xu Sanshi received an appointment from Bei Bei.

Xu Sanshi subconsciously wanted to argue with Bei Bei, but he knew very well that his role in Bei Shuang City was not as important as Bei Bei's, so he could only grit his teeth and nod hard at Bei Bei.

"Leave the envoy duties to me, but you must equip me with a large-capacity storage soul tool. The transport vehicles and the food supplies for the army's march all require storage soul tools."

Moreover, we don't have much money right now, and it will probably be difficult to buy enough food. Exchanging it with storage soul tools seems like a very worthwhile deal.

"That's no problem. The creation of storage soul tools, especially those of level three or below (excluding level three) with a single storage space of no more than three cubic meters, is not difficult."

With a little practice these next few days, Sister Xiaoya and Senior Brother Beibei should be able to master it.

It was another person who had spoken at the beginning but hadn't spoken since; this time it was Long You.

Normally, the person who analyzes the problem and gives the answer would be Long You, but today the others were obviously more proactive, and Long You was happy to save himself trouble. He only spoke up again at the end to reduce his workload.

The group video call ended, and everyone went about their business. Having completed the left arm armor and rested for a while, Long You needed to move on to the next piece of armor.

The right arm incorporates the Yangyan Shenyin Forging Hammer and the Jinlong Carving Knife. To ensure that the right arm armor does not conflict with these two, Long You needs to put more effort into the design of the right arm armor than the left arm armor.

(The fusion of the left arm battle armor and the soul bone was actually quite simple; Long You simply used the soul bone as a battery to power it. Now, the fusion of the right arm battle armor with the Yangyan Chenyin Forging Hammer and Jinlong Carving Knife cannot be so crude. We need to consider whether the right arm battle armor should be designed for melee combat.)

The process of designing and refining the blueprints for the right arm armor is well-documented and needs no further explanation, nor is there any doubt about Long You's dedication to his work. Therefore, for the remainder of the week, Long You once again entered a period of seclusion.

Whether Long You goes into seclusion or not doesn't make much difference to others, but for Huo Yuhao, it's a much worse situation.

Not only did Xiao Muyang, who was already as long as an adult's arm, become Huo Yuhao's follower and plush (weight-bearing) backpack, Huo Yuhao himself could only go to He Caitou for guidance.

Speaking of which, although Fan Yu is Huo Yuhao and the chubby Song He's nominal mentor, it is actually their senior brother who truly teaches them.

Lin Zhengze will mentor the chubby Song He, since the two have very similar characteristics, while Long You will mentor Huo Yuhao.

However, Huo Yuhao's "luck" is clearly not as good as that of the chubby Song He.

Although Long You was willing to provide guidance, this period was precisely the time when Long You was focusing on improving his battle armor creation, so Huo Yuhao had basically been left to his own devices since he came to the Soul Guidance Department.

In other words, Huo Yuhao is currently still in the stage of laying the foundation for forging techniques. He can rely on his spiritual detection soul skill to observe other people's actions from all aspects and learn quickly. Otherwise, Long You's approach would be completely misleading.

Of course, Long You wasn't completely ignoring Huo Yuhao. He had already spoken to He Caitou, and Huo Yuhao could go to He Caitou if he wanted to learn the *** magic array inscription technique.

This is why, as soon as Long You announced that he was going into seclusion, Huo Yuhao packed his things and ran to He Caitou's independent laboratory.

When you are fully focused on a task, time seems to flow faster.

Long You had just finalized all the design drawings for his right arm battle armor, and hadn't even started making it yet! But then Bei Bei caught him in the dormitory and warned him, "Don't go straight to the lab as soon as you get up tomorrow. You have to go to the Panlong classroom to assemble."

[Panlong Classroom?]

Long You admitted that he was slightly stunned when he heard the name and didn't immediately understand what Bei Bei was talking about.

Fortunately, just as Beibei's gaze began to change, Longyou's mind finally got back on track, putting his train of thought back on the "normal" track instead of continuing to rush headlong down the "closed-door" track.
