Douluo: I am a biologist, awakening the weapon spirit?

Chapter 40 Dugu Bo's Box of Weapons

In a manor outside Tiandou City.

A man wearing a black robe, with a handsome and strange face and a red mark on his forehead, stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.

He looked at the scenery outside, lost in thought.

This manor was given to him by Prince Xuexing. It is not far from Tiandou City, which makes it convenient for him to visit his granddaughter at any time, and also convenient for his granddaughter to come back to accompany him.

Dugu Yan is Dugu Bo's granddaughter and his only family member. She is currently studying in a secondary college in Tiandou City.

Her soul power is now about to break through to level 20, and she is about to obtain her second soul ring.

But this did not bring any joy to Dugu Bo's heart, because his son, Dugu Yan's father, suddenly died when he broke through level 50 and obtained the fifth soul ring.

After checking, Dugu Bo found that his son had died of poisoning.

The source of this poison comes from his genes.

Dugu Bo actually always knew that his martial soul would poison him, but he himself was a Titled Douluo with great strength. Although he would often feel pain due to the influence of the poison, his life would not be in any danger.

But what he never expected was that his son would inherit his poison and eventually die.

Not only that, his daughter-in-law was also affected by the toxins due to frequent contact with his son, and passed away early after his son's death.

Now, this poison has been passed down to granddaughter Dugu Yan.

From the moment Dugu Yan awakened her martial soul, she was racing against death.

It is not possible to stop practicing, because the poison has penetrated into Dugu Yan's bone marrow and will gradually become stronger over time, making it impossible for Dugu Yan to escape death.

Only by continuing to practice can she have a glimmer of hope, but the growth of soul power will also stimulate the poison. Once Dugu Yan fails to win this race with death, she will follow in her father's footsteps.

It was a death either way, so Dugu Bo finally chose to let his granddaughter gamble on that glimmer of hope.

But in his eyes, every time his granddaughter Dugu Yan obtained a soul ring, she was one step closer to death.

There were few servants in the manor because Dugu Bo liked quietness, and the poison in his martial soul made it difficult for anyone to live with him.

This made the manor desolate and deserted, just like Dugu Bo's mood at the moment.

But soon, a gentle smile appeared on his face, because a familiar figure appeared in his eyes.

"grandfather!"

"Hey, Yanyan, you're back." Dugu Bo opened the floor-to-ceiling window and jumped out, holding his granddaughter in his arms.

"I'm done with school, Grandpa." Dugu Yan nuzzled against Grandpa's arms, then suddenly seemed to remember something, took out a newspaper from her pocket and said:
"By the way, Grandpa, I have something to show you."

"What is it?" Dugu Bo took the newspaper curiously.

"Look here, Grandpa, the situation described above seems very similar to our family."

Dugu Bo looked where his granddaughter pointed and saw this passage:
"...As the name suggests, the path of Attribute Perfection is to purify the attributes of one's biological martial soul, allowing it to develop towards a single attribute. A typical example of this is the Four Elemental Academies.

“However, the training paths of the four elemental academies still have flaws, because they ignore the growth characteristics of biological martial spirits themselves and do not fully utilize the strengths of biological martial spirits. This makes it so rare for spirit masters to reach the ultimate attributes.

"For this situation, the solution I provide is to attach a spirit ring that absorbs the corresponding attribute energy to the biological martial spirit in the early stage, so that the biological martial spirit soul master can use this spirit ring to enhance and purify the attribute energy of his own martial spirit at all times.

"I call this method of cultivation the Foundation Building Method, which means building the foundation for cultivation. This soul ring that allows biological martial soul masters to absorb energy, I call it the Foundation Building Ring.

"However, there is one thing you need to pay attention to when pursuing the ultimate attribute. If the energy of certain attributes exceeds the endurance of the martial soul itself, it will instead have a negative impact on the soul master. The most typical example is the poison attribute. This issue requires special attention." Dugu Bo flipped through the newspaper in his hand and did not find the subsequent content.

He asked in some confusion:

"Where's the back?"

"There's nothing more behind it." Dugu Yan said.

"He didn't give a solution?" Dugu Bo widened his eyes.

"No, no." Dugu Yan answered honestly.

"This bastard! How could it break in a place like this?" Dugu Bo threw the newspaper on the ground and wanted to step on it, but after thinking about it, he picked up the newspaper again.

He said to Duguyan:
"I'll take care of this matter, Yanyan. Just stay home and I'll be back soon."

Dugu Bo turned and left the manor. He was going to the Tiandou Empire newspaper office to find out where the author of the article was.

To use the words of another world, he is going to open the author's box.

It doesn't matter if the update is interrupted at the critical part. Dugu Bo has his own way to make this crappy author spit out the rest of the content.

The scene changed and they arrived at the Tiandou Empire newspaper office.

The editor-in-chief of the newspaper was clearing things on his desk and was about to leave work when suddenly a figure appeared in front of him.

The editor-in-chief of the newspaper was so frightened that his legs went limp and he sat down on a stool. He looked at the figure in front of him and felt cramps in his calves.

"Poison, Poison Douluo."

"Let me ask you, where did this article come from?" Dugu Bo pointed to a certain part of the newspaper in his hand and asked with a gloomy face.

The newspaper editor-in-chief didn't even look at it and answered directly:
"Yes, I'm from Nottingham."

"Do you know which article I'm talking about?" Dugu Bo frowned, very dissatisfied with the editor-in-chief's perfunctory attitude.

"I know, I know, because many people came to ask about this matter today." The editor-in-chief of the newspaper said tremblingly.

He now feels regretful, very regretful, that he shouldn't have published the article.

When the manuscript was first submitted, the editor-in-chief thought that the paper seemed to have some substance, so he submitted it to Prince Xuexing for review.

As a result, Prince Xuexing ordered him to withhold the paper, and the editor-in-chief did so.

But not long after, Prince Xuexing sent another order, asking him to publish the paper in the newspaper as soon as possible, because Xingluo Weekly had already published the paper.

If their Tiandou weekly report lags behind, they may not earn a single bronze soul coin.

To put it bluntly, even eating shit can't keep up with the heat.

Now it seems that this paper is indeed problematic, and it even brought out the usually reclusive Poison Douluo.

After getting the answer, Dugu Bo turned around and left.

He wanted to talk to that bastard author and let him know the harm of arbitrarily quoting.
