Chapter 57 The Prototype of the 3D Maneuver Gear
As far as Su Yu was concerned, he had no suspicion of Ju Zi.
During the two weeks he spent with Orange, she took care of him like a gentle and quiet older sister, even though this older sister sometimes made silly mistakes.
As they spent more time together, Su Yu gradually came to understand the pain that Ju Zi had been trying to avoid.
Orange deliberately avoids the topic of family. Although Su Yu is also an orphan, it doesn't necessarily mean he can understand the pain of being an orphan.
However, during the two weeks he spent alone with Ju Zi, Su Yu was very happy. He let go of his burdens and acted like an ordinary person without any worries. At least for now, here, he was Ju Zi's junior, someone Ju Zi was willing to take care of wholeheartedly.
What grows with a person is never honor, but hatred. The deeper the hatred is hidden, the more it can drive a person insane...
"Luoyu, although I have to admit you're a very talented little chef, you still haven't reached the level of my father. Although you're much younger than me, I have to admit your cooking skills are indeed better than mine. I, Ju Zi, am going to marry a chef as excellent as my father in the future."
At this point, Orange looked out the window with her back slightly turned. Perhaps, the loss of her family and loved ones was a pain she could never erase.
Looking at Orange, who was lost in her memories, Su Yu lowered his head and drank the soup in his bowl in one gulp. "Sister Orange, you never know what the future holds. How can you be so sure that you'll marry a chef?"
"What, are you still questioning my decision, you little rascal? Your sister Orange isn't going to just marry anyone. Whether I get married or not is up to me." Orange reached out and pinched Su Yu's cheek, but Su Yu didn't think she was right.
Life is always full of unexpected events. Looking at the smiling girl in front of him, Su Yu leaned on Ju Zi's shoulder and composed himself.
He thought to himself, "How I wish you, who caused so much grief, could live a peaceful and uneventful life..."
Everyone experiences emotional changes, and these emotions influence one's choices. Ju Zi chose revenge rather than letting go. If it were Su Yu, he would ask himself honestly if he could not let go.
Hopefully, Sister Orange, you won't run into that scumbag Huo Yuhao again in the future...
Because if you truly love someone, if you have someone in your heart, you would not hesitate to sacrifice yourself, even if it meant going against the world and giving your life.
Just like that silly girl who shared everything with that loser, in the end the loser wiped away his tears and vowed to avenge him, even at the cost of his own life.
Even though he knew that killing the monster wouldn't change the fate beneath the Red Well...
But did Huo persist? Did he fight back?
…………
"What do you know, you little brat? Stop sighing and hurry up and eat."
Getting out of bed, Ju Zi habitually pinched Su Yu's cheek. After packing her things, she couldn't resist teasing Su Yu a little before leaving.
Thanks to Xuan Ziwen's tireless efforts, Su Yu received excellent treatment and was discharged from the hospital after only half a month.
After returning to the academy, Su Yu devoted himself to the research and development of soul tools, but this time the experiment really put Su Yu in a difficult situation.
The challenge Su Yu needs to overcome this time lies in combining the Flying Claw with the Soul Guidance Device.
The mobility of the Flying Claw, combined with the power system of the Flying Soul Tool, makes it far more effective in forests or other complex terrains than a single Flying Soul Tool.
Su Yu had already thoroughly mastered the crafting of the Flying Claw during his time at Shrek Academy, not to mention the explanations from the "Hundred Solutions to Hidden Weapons" manual.
However, he is currently only involved in the production of level three soul tools. Even if he has made a simple flying soul tool, the consumption of flying soul tools is still not conducive to long-term combat.
So Su Yu wanted to use something: a soul power storage device, or to put it bluntly, a baby bottle. However, the production of a baby bottle is extremely complicated, and it was simply impossible for him to complete it with his own abilities.
"Damn it, if only I had a battery or something, it wouldn't be this painful. If you're really that capable, you should make me a sealed baby bottle to use as a battery..."
Su Yu has been worried sick about this, and he has also made improvements to the load-bearing capacity of the Flying Claw. He replaced the mechanism of the Flying Claw with a precious metal unique to the Sun Moon Empire.
To ensure compatibility between the Flying Claw and the Soul Guidance Device, Su Yu specifically reduced the size of the Flying Claw and added several Soul Guidance Arrays to it in order to speed up the launch and retraction of the grappling hook.
The basic design has been completed, and even the blueprints for the 3D maneuvering device have been drawn up, but Su Yu really can't guarantee that Xuan Ziwen will keep it a secret, since what Xuan Ziwen lacks most is research funding and space.
If Su Yu were to hand over his design drawings to Xuan Ziwen for help at this time, it would be difficult to guarantee that Xuan Ziwen wouldn't give them to Mingdetang in exchange for research resources.
Once Mingdetang obtains these blueprints, given their research capabilities far exceeding their own, it is entirely possible that they could equip a large number of armored legions of the Sun Moon Empire in a short period of time.
"No, I'll have to ask Sister Orange to make me a flying soul tool. I still can't completely trust Xuan Ziwen."
As for flying soul tools, for now we can only ask Ju Zi for help, but we still need to prepare one or two milk bottles. With Su Yu's current soul power and soul guidance technology, he can only use the milk bottles as a temporary reserve at most.
This provided a temporary relief from the depletion of his soul power. Afterwards, Su Yu took the detailed blueprints for the flying soul tool to find Ju Zi.
"Looks like you've recovered well. How about another match?"
Ji Juechen looked at Su Yu, who was holding the blueprints, and stepped forward to ask.
"I'm busy right now, but if you're interested, I do have a way to fix your weakness in swordsmanship."
Su Yu continued walking forward, showing no signs of the unfamiliarity he had felt when facing Ji Juechen. After all, Ji Juechen had visited the set quite often recently, mainly because this guy had caused trouble at the academy again, even beating some teachers until they cried for their parents.
While complaining about having no rivals, this guy took extra care of Su Yu, even bringing out some precious spiritual herbs from somewhere and tossing them to Ju Zi without a word, asking Ju Zi to feed them to Su Yu.
Looking at the young boy before him, a rare glint appeared in Ji Juechen's eyes as he asked with interest, "What? You're saying my swordsmanship has weaknesses?"
Ji Juechen was perfectly clear about his own situation. The sword intent he pursued could never have any problems. Su Yu's words inspired him and allowed him to see the direction he was pursuing.
But today Su Yu actually told him that his swordsmanship had a weakness?
is it possible?
"To be precise, it's not a problem with your swordsmanship, but with your tactics. Your fighting style is completely accustomed to head-on confrontation. In a head-on confrontation, basically no one of your level can match you."
At this point, Su Yu paused. Suddenly, a bold idea came to his mind. Some people are simple-minded and don't want to be as complicated as others. Now that he has encountered a bottleneck in the design of his soul tool, he might as well help him out. It would be a win-win situation.
"However, once your opponent creates distance or launches a long-range attack, your attacks will never be able to get close to the target. In the worst-case scenario, your soul power will be exhausted by the opponent using soul tools or other long-range attack methods."
Su Yu's words were not without reason. Xuan Ziwen and Ji Juechen had fought before. Because Ji Juechen could not get close to Xuan Ziwen at all, Xuan Ziwen eventually exhausted his soul power with the help of the soul tool and lost that match.
The two walked side by side on the path provided by the academy. Ji Juechen fell into deep thought. After thinking for a long time, he finally uttered a few words, "You're right."
"I can help you solve this problem, although it also involves the use of a soul tool. However, I don't want you to become overly reliant on the soul tool and abandon the sword path you pursue. Therefore, you must promise me that the soul tool can only be used as a means for you to cope with the situation, not as a power you rely on."
For Su Yu, Ji Juechen is an excellent test subject. However, this short-range dash 3D maneuvering device is perfect for Ji Juechen, who can deliver a fatal blow with a single strike. When the opponent is difficult to deal with, Ji Juechen can rely on the effect of instant dash to kill with one strike!
Unless the terrain is extremely complex, this type of three-dimensional mobility device is not very useful to Su Yu.
Because of the soul bone Su Yu had previously obtained, which granted him the soul skill Mirror Transfer, he was perfectly capable of overcoming the speed difference.
"I understand that perfectly well. I would never abandon my swordsmanship for some external thing. So what exactly is this thing you're talking about?"
Ji Juechen's curiosity was completely piqued by Su Yu. He wanted to know what kind of soul tool this boy, who relied on his strange swordsmanship and soul skills, could design, and even dared to claim that it could make up for his own shortcomings.
If it were anyone else, Ji Juechen would probably have immediately attacked with his sword, letting them experience what sword intent is all about.
However, Su Yu is different. This guy cannot be regarded as a thirteen-year-old boy at all. His gaze always has unique insights, and even Ji Juechen, who is at level fifty-eight, cannot see through him.
It was precisely because of this that Ji Juechen and Su Yu had an exceptionally good relationship. Ji Juechen, who was not good at socializing, met Su Yu, who was like a kindred spirit.
