Chapter 2: Electrolux
However, the Wind Baboon had, after all, lost a hand. Its usual four-limbed movement was no longer as swift, and Huo Yuhao caught up to it in a few steps, tackling it to the ground.
Pinning the Wind Baboon beneath him, the white tiger dagger 'kindly' carved out its heart and lungs from its back.
Blood soaked the earth, and the Wind Baboon's screams intertwined with the sounds of the white tiger dagger piercing through.
Only when a white Soul Ring slowly floated up did Huo Yuhao finally breathe a sigh of relief and stand up.
He wasn't sure if the Wind Baboon was dead, so he kept stabbing, its back becoming a bloody mess.
Fearing a desperate counterattack before its death, he had no choice but to keep delivering fatal blows.
But with the appearance of the Soul Ring, it was truly dead.
Looking at the white Soul Ring floating above the Wind Baboon, Huo Yuhao glanced around, finding nothing unusual.
Where was the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm? Such a large Tianmeng Ice Silkworm? He had already killed the Wind Baboon, so why hadn't it appeared yet?
Was it because he had arrived two days early? Did he need to wait two more days?
Suddenly, without warning, a voice echoed in his mind.
"Finally, I've met a human with a Spiritual attribute. It's a pity I can't cry, or I'd be shedding tears of joy!"
Brother Huo tells you, this time, it's a sure thing!
But it's not over yet; it's time to test his acting skills!
Huo Yuhao, as if startled, gripped the white tiger dagger in his hand and vigilantly looked around.
Just then, the ground beneath him suddenly trembled without warning. Cracks appeared on the ground about two meters in front of him, gradually widening into a fissure.
Faint golden-white light could vaguely be seen shining from within the fissure.
Before long, the golden-white light finally revealed its true form.
It was a round head, plump in appearance, with a diameter of over a meter. The silkworm baby wriggled and slowly crawled out, its body length exceeding seven meters.
It was a plump silkworm baby, entirely jade-white, with ten golden stripes from head to tail.
A trace of chill, accompanied by a faint fragrance, entered Huo Yuhao's perception.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. Brother won't hurt you."
The silkworm baby approached Huo Yuhao and nodded its massive head.
Brother Huo expressed great surprise, his hand gripping the white tiger dagger trembling: "Are you talking to me?"
The giant silkworm baby nodded at him, its voice still echoing in his mind, "Of course it's Brother. Are you captivated by my beautiful delicate body?"
"What do you want to do?"
The silkworm baby said, "First, let me introduce myself. I am the Incarnation of heroism and chivalry, the King of Soul Beasts, possessing both wisdom and beauty, with unparalleled grace, Cultivating for a million years, the only million-year Soul Beast on the Douluo Continent. Hmm, you can call me Brother Tian Meng!"
Huo Yuhao's eyes were dull: "Then, then what do you want to do?"
The Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's voice suddenly became solemn: "Brother wants to become your Soul Ring, the first ever intelligent Soul Ring on the Douluo Continent."
Seeing Huo Yuhao's bewildered gaze, the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm furtively glanced in the direction of the Star Dou Great Forest, then said to Huo Yuhao, "Brother is going to start now, don't worry, Brother will go in slowly, very gently, it won't hurt you too much~"
Before Huo Yuhao could continue to play along, an extremely cold aura caused him to lose consciousness.
The Tianmeng Ice Silkworm quickly crawled onto Huo Yuhao's body, ten golden halos pulsating, and the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's entire body transformed into streams of white light, surging into him.
"Oh, this little guy's physical condition isn't bad. It seems his Aptitude must be good. Wahahaha, Brother truly is the Incarnation of wisdom and beauty, casually stumbling upon a Genius!"
An invisible Spiritual fluctuation instantly covered an area of a hundred miles.
Under this massive Spiritual fluctuation, the sky abruptly darkened, and a thunderous roar echoed high above.
Immense pressure descended from the heavens!
With a mighty sound from the sky, Elder Electrolux made a dazzling appearance!
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm: (°ο°)~
A gray stream of Qi, as if encountering immense suction, descended from the sky and, in an instant, quietly drilled into the back of Huo Yuhao's head.
"What dares to snatch someone from Brother?"
The Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was furious, and a vast Spiritual fluctuation instantly surged, attempting to expel the gray stream of Qi from Huo Yuhao's body.
A majestic voice rang out: "Holding the sun and moon, plucking the stars, there is no one like me in this world. I didn't expect that this old man could still have a wisp of remnant soul remaining."
"Oh? What a weak bug."
The Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's vast Spiritual Power seemed to have no effect. The gray stream of Qi transformed into a small gray bead and settled in Huo Yuhao's sea of consciousness.
"Who's weak, who's weak! You're the bug! Your whole family are bugs!"
The Tianmeng Ice Silkworm felt a surge of indignation and could only grumble as it continued its Fusion with Huo Yuhao.
The sacrifice had already begun; its body was gone, and there was no turning back.
"Brother is too unlucky. After finally encountering a human with a Spiritual attribute, someone is trying to snatch him from Brother. Heaven must be jealous of Brother's beauty and talent!"
"(⋟﹏⋞)"
Even as the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm grumbled, its movements were not slow at all. Soon, all the white light had completely retracted into Huo Yuhao's body.
"Wahahaha... Brother is free! Those bastards who coveted Brother's body, just wait for Brother to return and get revenge!"
"ヽ(≧∇≦)ﾉ"
The massive Spiritual Power fluctuation gradually disappeared. Beneath Huo Yuhao, a golden halo silently emerged, then turned deep yellow.
A thin film with a faint golden hue also retracted into Huo Yuhao's embrace, disappearing.
In a daze, Huo Yuhao felt himself enter a golden space, filled with numerous pure white light spots. Within the space, ten golden halos gradually rotated, transforming into ten golden orbs, suspended above the space. The space, under the influence of the orbs, also became vast.
Near one of the orbs, there was a very small gray light cluster, but no matter how the other ten golden light clusters tried to expel it, it had no effect.
"Ah! Why can't Brother read your memories! Is Brother really weak?"
The awakened Huo Yuhao looked at the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, which had transformed into a small boy in a hooded cloak, and slapped it.
"Call me Brother Huo!"
"Ah!"
"Do you want to become a god?"
"How do you know, ah, no, how do you know Brother wants to create a god!"
"Just say whether you want to or not."
"Yes, I really want to become a god, I dream of it."
The Tianmeng Ice Silkworm rubbed its hands, feeling as if it had been deceived. This human wasn't like this just now; he was so timid and helpless, the kind that could be molded.
"Tian Meng, I know everything about you, including your plan for the Ice Empress," Huo Yuhao's spiritual body in the sea of consciousness said in a deep voice.
"Ah, how do you know about Bing Bing? I never said a word about it!"
Huo Yuhao stopped speaking, only looking at the gray bead in the space.
"You, ah, no, Brother Huo, can you really help me become a god?"
Without answering the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, Huo Yuhao shouted at the gray bead.
"Elder Electrolux, can you hear this Junior speaking?"
