Chapter 854: Giving up on this strange world

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

“Are you sure that this thing is that beast?” Su Hao looked into the distance...

Yes, he’s right!

A pile!

A pile of soft wool balls!

This can’t be compared with yesterday’s giant beast.

The beast was gigantic. When it stood up, it’s estimated to be as tall as a building! Because of this, it could easily swallow Su Hao whole. However, looking carefully at this beast in front of him, Su Hao thought that he had found the wrong target. This thing, was it the one that chased them before?

“It’s true.” Chen Yiran nodded, “Don’t look down on its small size. Once it makes a move, its body will grow. With Rule Force powering it, it would become like what we faced yesterday.”

“What’s your opinion regarding this?”

“I have observed it for several days beforehand. This berserk beast is strange. It doesn’t eat or drink. Unless one steps into its territory, it won’t ever move.” Chen Yiran explained.

“Really?” Su Hao fell into deep thought.

“En, at times, I noticed that it knew I was there. It was just too lazy to move.” Chen Yiran said in a low voice.

Both were hiding behind a hill while looking at this beast, “I thought it chased us pretty far before?”

“Probably because you hurt it.” Chen Yiran rolled her eyes, “You came out from within its body by beating it. Guess whether it will be painful or not.”

“Let me try.” Su Hao smirked.

Su Hao threw a stone and happened to hit on its head. The beast raised its head, looked at Su Hao angrily before going back to its nap lazily. Chen Yiran didn’t manage to stop him, but looking at this situation, she was stunned.

This beast...

What happened?

It didn’t react even after it got hit?

Su Hao raised his eyebrows a bit.

Since it already noticed them, there was no longer the need to hide.

Su Hao simply walked up to the beast without even having any intention to be wary. He looked at it carefully. If he was to observe from the angle above, its shape did look like a bear. With its bright brown furs, it exudes the ultimate attitude of laziness.

“Hey~!” Su Hao gave it a kick.

Chen Yiran was startled. Su Hao was simply playing with fire! She recalled that Su Hao was with Li Xin several days ago. This couldn’t help her to have deep worry about him.

It can’t be that Li Xin had influenced Su Hao... right?

“Roar~!”

That beast glared at Su Hao angrily.

“Hey~!” Su Hao kicked again.

“Roar~!”

“Hey~!”

“Roar~!”

The beast was finally angry for real.

The powerful Rule Force condensed. Chen Yiran was getting ready to take action as her hands were illuminating. However, Su Hao still remained calm, looking at it coldly. As the Rule Force condensed in its body, the size of this beast amplified. In front of these two, it was as if a balloon had swelled up.

Before Chen Yiran took action, that beast’s body retracted at a quicker speed.

It was akin to leaking air.

That beast returned to its normal size. No, it was smaller than before. At first, it looked like a brown bear, two or three meters tall. After failing its transformation, it now became only half a meter tall. That angry beast scratched Su Hao’s body without being able to inflict any damage.

“Aowo~” That beast looked at Su Hao angrily and charged over here. Su Hao easily grasped its tail with one hand and threw it up, “This is that beast?”

“It... it should be?” Chen Yiran wasn’t sure.

This beast, wasn’t it that beast before?

Looking at the beast which opened its eyes wide, Chen Yiran suddenly felt guilty. At this moment, she seemed to realize that she was the one who took the initiative to kill the beasts in the past. She had never imagined that there would be such a beast that would give her such a feeling; it was as if...

It’s a human!

“As I suspected.” Su Hao squinted his eyes.

This beast was similar to the wolf in Huangliang City, and they are unique life forms. They looked like beasts but aren’t. Otherwise, they would have been suppressed here. Of course, Su Hao was clueless of the fact that the wolf in Huangliang City had been officially named by Li Xin as Little Husky...

Are they creatures born from the mutation of Nitai artifacts?

“They are like blank pieces of paper, and act by instinct or imitating their surroundings.” Su Hao calmly analyzed, “Instead of treating them like beasts, I would rather treat them like humans or... babies.”

“Then what should we do now?” Chen Yiran smiled bitterly at this beast in front of her. She didn’t have the heart to attack it anymore.

“Aowo~” That beast struggled.

With its tail as a fulcrum, it swayed around Su Hao’s hand like a wing. Su Hao turned it upside down and grabbed it. That fluffy tail and body were like a toy in his hands. Of course, the texture was so amazing. Su Hao rubbed it back and forth, and couldn’t help but say in a regretful tone.

“I bought a stuffed toy for Ling Er before. The feeling is completely different.”

Chen Yiran: “...”

“Aowo~” That beast protested.

“Stop making trouble.” Su Hao slapped its back and put it on the ground, “Forget about your current appearance. Even if you’re in yesterday’s state, I’m not afraid. So...”

Buzz~

Su Hao summoned Shadowless God Needle, causing the beast to shudder.

“Do you understand me now?”

“Aowo~” That beast nodded.

“This actually works?” Chen Yiran felt that her view of this world had been subverted.

“Of course, they’re blank papers and rely only on their instinct to act. This beast should have the wisdom of a two to three year old child, but staying in the wild, it’s even more aware of what’s dangerous and beneficial. Moreover, this thing’s intellectual growth is terrifying, much faster than humans.”

Su Hao’s eyes shone.

Faint energy flashed in the surroundings as the synchronized space continued its role.

With both eyes lit up, using Synchronous Playback, Su Hao saw another scene. Around that small and exquisite beast, Rule Force could be seen, although it was extremely weak.

It was so weak that one could hardly notice it!

However, it was this little Rule Force that kept supplying nutrients to this beast. With each trace of Rule Force, the body of this beast recovered a little. Although it was invisible to naked eyes, it did increase slowly from the analysis.

“It turned out to be like this!” Su Hao finally understood.

That beast had no restraint in using its Rule Force. Eventually, it exhausted all its Rule Force, which was why today it was impossible for it to play with Su Hao! Only when its body is full of Rule Force could it transform. Because of the excessive consumption of Rule Force, it became even weaker.

Because it is a creature born from Rule Force!

This was a completely different situation from that wolf.

“Where does this Rule Force come from?” Su Hao’s eyes were like lightning.

After glancing at the beast in detail, he finally found an anomaly. That Rule Force was actually born from within the beast itself! Its own body? No, this isn’t right! After analyzing another round, Su Hao finally found the location of the anomaly, its heart!

The heart of this beast has a magical stone.

The moment when Su Hao focused on the stone, a message popped out, Hurricane Force Stone, a stone condensed from the death of a peak world esper. It can grow Rule Force and multiply without end.

After death...

Su Hao was stunned.

This hurricane force stone turned out to come from a world esper who controlled hurricane force. After his death, this mysterious stone was born. After undergoing another mutation, this stone actually gave birth to a soul.

This vast world is indeed truly amazing.

Su Hao exclaimed in admiration.

In front of him, that fluffy beast stood up. Noticing that Su Hao was staring at its body for over a dozen seconds, its two fluffy arms finally moved and stiffly crossed them in front of it, hiding its crotch. The way it looked at Su Hao was full of anger and dissatisfaction.

Chen Yiran: “...”

Humanity!

What Su Hao said was right!

How could it still be considered a beast?

“What do we do now?” Chen Yiran looked at Su Hao; a gigantic beast is terrifying! But she couldn’t kill or let it go. She really didn’t know what to do.

“Simple.” Su Hao smiled.

“Small matter, come with me.” Su Hao pointed at the beast and then walked to the mountain range that usually blocks the wind. That beast walked with Su Hao blankly.

“Take a good look.” Su Hao looked at it coldly.

“Matchless Aura!”

Boom!

The world quaked.

Endless momentum emerged.

After upgrading it to six stars, this origin technique produced an unimaginable might that it doesn’t pale in comparison to a world esper! This pseudo world esper beast, for the first time ever, it got shocked by Su Hao.

Su Hao took a deep breath while condensing the momentum to the extreme.

This was the first time ever Su Hao used it after upgrading it to six stars. It was as domineering as always. However, this was merely a prelude.

historical

“Phantom Sprint!”

Su Hao’s body flickered.

Several afterimages appeared in a blur. The surrounding space seemed to be experiencing a time lag.

“Mountain Breaker!”

Boom!

Under this little thing’s eyes, which it found it hard to comprehend things, the stones in front of it were reduced into nothingness under that horrifying attack! Of course, with its eyes, it would never be able to see that when Su Hao made his move, a faint layer of frost was already covering the mountain.

It also didn’t understand that Su Hao had used all his strength to produce such an attack.

“Little thing, in the future, just follow my lead.” Su Hao pretended to have a majestic look, which instantly persuaded it. Chen Yiran literally burst out in laughter, witnessing this. However, this isn’t a long term solution. This beast won’t always maintain this state all the time. What will happen if its Rule Force recover?

“That won’t happen.” Su Hao smiled lightly, “It will only remain this big in the future.”
