What is Zhao Pan doing at this moment?
He is currently... sleeping in the same bed with Zhu Ji and Zhao Qian.
After being captured by Zhao Pan, Zhu Ji willingly submitted to him, just as she had submitted to Zhao Mu Zhao Pan before.
Zhao Qian, on the other hand, was tricked by Zhao Pan into coming here.
Surprising? Not at all.
How could a naive and somewhat foolish princess resist the charms of Zhao Pan, a modern-day scumbag who Soul Transmigration?
Compared to Ling Yi and Xiang Shaolong, he, the Protagonist, lived a much more comfortable life.
He enjoyed endless delicacies every day, was surrounded by beautiful women, deceived Prince Zhao, ruined Zhao Mu, won over the ministers with benefits, opened a supermarket in ancient times, made money hand over fist, and even obtained the title of Marquis of Taiping.
Now, he enjoys immense prestige in the State of Zhao, truly second only to the emperor.
Zhao Pan's cheat code is the " Strongest Exchange System," which West City to exchange for anything as long as he has money, including bullet boxes, Satellite, Optimus Prime, Optimus Prime, Saiyan bloodlines... mission characters from various movies, TV series, anime, or games... and even the cultivation level of Sage.
Of course, even if he managed to acquire all the gold and silver in the entire A Step into the Past World, he still wouldn't be able to exchange it for the cultivation of Sage. That would just be a facade, something the system used to fool people.
Let alone achieving Sage, even becoming an immortal would be difficult.
He spent several months gathering most of the wealth of Handan City, but in the end, he could only exchange it for a modern combat legion of one thousand men.
So recently, his business has begun to expand to other countries.
If things continue at this pace, even if Ling Yi activates his second cheat ability, it might not be so easy for him to deal with Zhao Pan in another six months to a year.
Since his miniature drone was smashed to pieces by Yuan Zong, Zhao Pan has ignored Ling Yi and the others.
In his view, his primary goal was to make money, and he didn't care at all about small fry like Xiang Shaolong and Shan Rou.
Although he found Ling Yi's sudden appearance strange, he simply assumed it was his own butterfly effect and didn't think much of it.
Overall, it's hard to say whether he's good or evil; he's just a scumbag and arrogant Protagonist.
Suddenly, a piercing alarm sounded throughout the entire manor.
Zhao Pan and the other two, who were fast asleep, were instantly awakened.
"My lord, what has happened?" Zhu Ji asked, rubbing her eyes.
Just as Zhao Pan was about to say something, a series of gunshots and explosions rang out.
"I'm going out to check on things. You all keep sleeping!"
After hastily putting on his clothes, Zhao Pan flicked his right hand, and a Charge appeared in his hand. He then opened the door and went out.
"Holy crap... I've time-traveled again?"
But when he saw the situation inside the manor, he couldn't help but swear.
The soldiers he had exchanged were firing wildly at the enemy in front of him, and the so-called enemy turned out to be giant Shitou men over five meters tall.
Although the bullets scattered debris as they hit the Shitou giants, the next moment, Daodao of brownish-yellow light would rise, and the damaged parts of these Shitou giants would be restored to their original state.
The Shitou giant was very slow and his movements seemed clumsy. He would pause for a long time after each step, otherwise his soldiers would have given up long ago.
Zhao Pan grabbed a soldier and shouted, "What exactly is going on?"
"Sir, these Shitou giants suddenly appeared in the manor, and we don't know the specifics yet."
"These things are definitely being controlled. Send out scouts and find the person behind it all!" Zhao Pan roared.
He then shoved the soldier aside, quickly went to a sergeant, and roared, "Useless trash! Get me the machine gun! Focus fire and take one out first!"
"Yes, sir!" The sergeant saluted and then quickly ran down to make the arrangements.
As the nine Shitou giants slowly approached, Zhao Pan's forehead was covered in question marks.
"What the hell is going on? Is this world not the ordinary A Step into the Past World? Is it a world Fusion with other worlds?"
"Or has it been invaded by another world?"
Looking at the scattered bullet casings, Zhao Pan forced a painful smile.
Every bullet costs money.
He hadn't considered the possibility of Ling Yi and Xiang Shaolong being involved, nor did he know that these Shitou giants were actually just Ling Yi to wear down his ammunition.
It was Zou Yan who controlled these stone giants.
At this moment, Zou Yan was sipping fruit wine while controlling the stone giant, completely relaxed and carefree.
"It's just an earth puppet. If it were a five-element puppet, the Combat would probably be over by now."
Compared to the various Combat Skills researched by Shan Rou, Zou Yan preferred to study battle formations. In addition, he was Proficiency Yin and Yang and the Five Elements, so the Formation he created Li Qiang and varied.
These Shitou giants are a kind of puppet battle formation.
In addition, Zou Yan also set up a golden killing formation around the manor, so that anyone who came out of the manor would die.
Meanwhile, Zhao Pan Yu Cheng focus their fire and take down one of the stone giants.
The machine gun was extremely powerful; each shot inflicted massive damage on the stone giant.
Under the relentless attacks, a stone giant was reduced to fragments.
Zhao Pan breathed a sigh of relief; as long as he could get rid of him, that was fine.
Then, the soldiers followed suit and quickly scattered all nine stone giants.
"Damn it, don't let me find out who it is..."
Before Zhao Pan could finish his harsh words, a soldier shouted, "Sir, something bad has happened! The monster has Resurrection, and it's stronger than ever!"
Zhao Pan's pupils contracted. To his disbelief, the stone giant that had been targeted was rapidly recovering under the dual light of earth and metal.
Unlike the previous stone giants, this stone giant was covered in a layer of metal armor, and now wielded a huge golden hammer and a shield in its left and right hands.
Moreover, these new stone giants are significantly faster.
"Attack! Attack! What the hell are you all standing there for?" Zhao Pan roared.
Gunfire erupted again, but ordinary Charge bullets were having little effect, and machine guns could only slow down the monsters, but were no longer able to completely eliminate them.
"You bastard, you Laozi I'm easy to bully?"
With a wave of his hand, Zhao Pan conjured boxes of incendiary bombs out of thin air at his feet.
Burn them!
Incendiary bombs are terrifying weapons of mass destruction on the battlefield, capable of generating temperatures of thousands of degrees Celsius instantly, enough to melt even iron.
The stone giant's metal armor, hammer, and shield began to melt and Shapeshifting.
After all, the puppets Zou Yan concocted were of the lowest level, primarily intended to consume Zhao Pan's resources.
"This Zhao Pan is indeed no simple man. However, this is exactly what I wanted. It would be no fun if it ended too soon."
The metal armor on the Shitou golem melted, and it instantly stopped moving.
Seeing this, Zhao Pan's eyes suddenly lit up. He chuckled and said, "Today I'll teach you monsters what Physics is, what thermal expansion and contraction are."
"Bang!"
With a loud bang, he redeemed a huge water-spraying truck.
Under his command, the soldiers operated water cannons to spray water directly onto the almost red-hot Shitou golems.
A sudden drop in temperature followed by a rapid drop in temperature—anyone who has studied Physics knows what the result will be.
Cracks began to appear Daodao the bodies of these Shitou golems, which then crumbled into pieces.
Zou Yan became interested upon seeing this.
He didn't know anything about Physics, but he knew about the five elements and their interactions.
"Water overcomes fire? I didn't know it could have such an effect. I'll test it when I have time... The five elements interact, the five elements puppets, fire and metal puppets, activate!"
As Zou Yan finished speaking, nine more enormous figures rose from the Huoyan in the manor.
Unlike the previous puppets, this puppet has a metal body and is engulfed in crimson Huoyan.
The intense heat met the water jet from the waterwheel, instantly creating a large amount of thick steam and mist.
Soon, the entire courtyard was shrouded in thick fog.
While cursing and swearing, Zhao Pan exchanged various weapons from his cheat store.
The fog actually put Zhao Pan and his group in a more passive position.
Left with no other option, they turned off the water gun and only threw incendiary bombs. Under the high temperature, the mist was quickly burned away, but the Huoyan had no effect on the fire-gold golem.
As the fire-gold golem drew closer, his soldiers began to suffer losses.
Ordinary bullets are ineffective, and machine gun attacks can only slow down the target, without causing any real damage.
Using a waterwheel is worse than not using one at all.
Zhao Pan can't exchange for anything more advanced right now; he can only exchange for a large number of machine gun bullets to launch a direct attack.
It took more than two hours to completely eliminate all nine puppets, but this was far from the end...
That night, the entire Handan City resounded with the sounds of gunfire that belonged to an era unlike any other.
The King of Prince Zhao sent men to investigate, but they were blocked by Earth Wall that appeared out of nowhere and could not get in at all.
As dawn approached, Zhao Pan's manor finally fell silent.
But amidst this solemn scene, apart from a pile of corpses, there was not a single living person.
In the valley of Camel Hump Mountain, thirty miles from Handan City, a group of several thousand people were moving Rapid Speed.
Ling Yi and his group traveled light; apart from the three carriages in the middle, the rest of the group consisted entirely of cavalry.
In the central, somewhat luxurious carriage, Zhu Ji and Ling Yi sat facing each other.
Under Ling Yi's arrangement, Zhu Ji has already recognized Ling Yi Zhao Zheng.
" Zheng'er, seeing you Wuyang, all the suffering I've endured over the years has been worth it." Zhu Ji wiped away her tears as she recounted her experiences over the years.
It's really not easy for a woman, especially a beautiful one, to survive in this era.
Not only do you need to be shrewd, but you also need to know how to be patient.
Ling Yi Ling Yi silent, maintaining this indifferent demeanor ever since the two "recognized" each other.
Are you still blaming your mother?
"I'm used to being alone, I need to adjust. I'm going out for some fresh air," Ling Yi said dismissively, then stood up and jumped out of the carriage.
After getting out of the carriage, Ling Yi gave Wu Yingyuan a look, and Wu Yingyuan, who had been following beside the carriage, naturally knew what to do.
"Madam, Young Master Zheng still carries noble blood; blood is thicker than water. You should give him some time to adjust."
Zhu Ji sighed and said, "Of course I know all this. I wonder how Your Majesty and Lü Buwei have been all these years. I truly hope they can be reunited soon."
"The Prime Minister is already at the border to meet the Lady; she should be reunited with him in no more than Half Moon."
"What happened to Zhao Pan? This man possesses unpredictable and mysterious abilities. You must have paid a heavy price to rescue me from him. If he survives, he will likely become Zheng'er's greatest enemy in the future."
Hearing Zhu Ji's words, Wu Yingyuan's expression became somewhat strange. "How is Zhao Pan? Zhao Pan has now turned into a human... What was Xiang Shaolong calling that again? Something like a human vending machine..."
