After hearing her gossip, all the civil and military officials went crazy.

Chapter 83: Plot-Driven Kill, Plants vs. Zombies

Apart from the remaining remnants of the crab generals, everyone else who still had the strength and ability to fight was sent, including the crown prince.

But after fighting for a long time, the medicine man only suffered minor injuries; they didn't even lose an arm, while the other side was covered in wounds.

Seeing this, Fang Lingchu asked anxiously, "Guagua, how are those drug-using people going back? Why can't the knife cut off their hands?"

The system said helplessly, "Host, these are drug-using people to begin with. With our enhanced abilities, they're bound to be stronger. But we shouldn't be unable to kill them."

The system had just finished loading when the Shadow Legion, who were beside Fang Lingchu, began dealing with one enemy after another.

The prince was originally surrounded by hundreds of medicine men, but now they have eliminated half of them.

Fang Lingchu frowned and looked at Duan Ganze's side again. Although the fight was very messy, she also saw many medicine people who had been slashed and had broken arms and legs.

Looking at Gu Wangyan's side, apart from the swords in the hands of the Crown Prince and Gu Wangyan, which could actually cut people, the swords of the Imperial Guards and the people brought by the Crown Prince were like hitting stones, only causing minor scratches.

【What happened, Guagua? Why is this happening?】

The system looked at those people and said, "[This is why the Minister of Works was sentenced to death.]"

Upon hearing the system's words, Fang Lingchu immediately made a connection.

The Ministry of War was the place specifically for forging weapons. If someone tampered with a weapon, then the Minister of War could indeed be executed.

Fang Lingchu said anxiously, "What do we do now? Their knives aren't good enough; they'll all die at the hands of the medicine-wielding men soon."

They were all brought out by her. Although she couldn't bring them back completely intact, they should at least return alive.

The system didn't know what to do either, and after thinking for a moment, it said: "[Otherwise, you could use your jinx to make these drug-using people weaker, or strike them with lightning and burn them to a crisp, that might solve the problem]."

Fang Lingchu thought about it and felt it was feasible, so she said to the other side, "Everyone, step back."

Then activate the skill in your mind.

Now that the system has been upgraded and its capabilities are stronger, it should be able to trigger heavenly lightning.

Soon, the previously dark sky was filled with muffled claps of thunder.

Then it cleaved straight down into the forest, striking each of the medicine-carrying people with precision.

But the trees next to it weren't burned at all.

Upon seeing this, Duan Ganze glanced at Fang Lingchu strangely and swallowed hard.

What kind of person did he offend that could attract such attention?

Although she couldn't hear Fang Lingchu's thoughts, looking at Fang Lingchu, she was certain that the lightning bolt was attracted by Fang Lingchu.

No wonder he felt like he was seeing a fairy when he first saw Fang Lingchu.

Those bright, expressive eyes couldn't possibly belong to an ordinary person.

As soon as he thought this, it was as if he had pressed a key switch, and he instantly heard the sound he had just heard.

[Guagua, I didn't expect you to be so capable. You can even use the lightning of the Heavenly Dao.]

The system arrogantly declared: "I'm currently the fastest leveling system among all the new systems. This power was specially granted to me by the God of War. Once I level up again, I can fully utilize the lightning tribulation, and I won't need your jinxing anymore."

Upon hearing the system's words, Fang Lingchu instantly became highly motivated.

Her only thought now is to upgrade the system so that she can chop down whoever she wants and let them know what it means to be watched by heaven.

Hahahahahaha.

Sensing that Fang Lingchu was lost in thought, the system quickly said, "Host, now is not the time to daydream. We are still on the battlefield."

Upon hearing the system's words, Fang Lingchu quickly snapped back to reality.

The medicine man struck by lightning lost his initial invincibility and was gradually killed by everyone.

royal palace.

Just as the emperor was preparing the empress to sleep, he saw a figure standing beside their bed. The moment Xiao Hei appeared, the emperor and empress's bodyguards immediately appeared as well, surrounding him.

The emperor opened the lotus-covered enclosure and saw a person standing there, completely wrapped in black cloth, with only two dark eyes showing.

The emperor knew who it was the moment he saw the person.

The mysterious experts around Fang Lingchu.

Upon seeing the others, the emperor frowned, a pang of pain shooting through his heart, a sense of foreboding creeping in.

"What happened? Why are you still here? Where is Fang Lingchu?!"

The emperor looked anxiously at the person who had arrived.

Unfortunately, Xiao Hei didn't give him any reaction; it just quietly watched him.

Then, after thinking for a moment, he took out the things Fang Lingchu had initially prepared for him from his bosom, put them in the emperor's bosom, and then disappeared.

The emperor looked at the object in his arms, then glanced at the person who had suddenly vanished before him.

His face was filled with shock as he turned to look at the equally shocked Queen.

However, after the initial shock, she quickly opened the letter and saw four large characters written by Fang Lingchu: "Come to the rescue immediately."

It also came with a map.

Upon seeing these words, the emperor realized that Fang Lingchu and the others were in danger.

The Empress also saw it and said worriedly, "Is Lord Fang alright? Your Majesty, please arrange for someone to rescue them quickly."

The emperor shared the same thought, so he quickly got up, dressed, and went out to make arrangements.

He just discovered today that all the weapons used by the Ministry of War were made with substandard materials, and even the weapons used by the Imperial Guards were not made of black iron.

He was so angry that he threw everyone in the Ministry of War into prison, and even beat the Minister of War half to death.

If it weren't for what the system said when Fang Lingchu left, instructing her to save the Minister of Works...

He might just kill the person.

Weapons are the foundation of soldiers. If the weapons are no longer adequate, what will happen to the soldiers stationed on the border?

The heavy casualties on the battlefield were not due to their incompetence, but because those corrupt officials, for their own selfish gain, caused millions to die on the battlefield.

How could he not be angry?

Just as Fang Lingchu and her group had killed a group of medicine-using people, another group soon appeared.

Fang Lingchu looked at the new group of medicine-using people and couldn't help but ask, "Guagua, is this ever going to end? This is like Plants vs. Zombies, one wave leaves and another comes."

Although the system didn't know what Plants vs. Zombies was, it felt the description was quite similar.

[Host, calm down. These drug-infected humans are just the beginning. What other animals will appear later? The long night is still far off.]

Fang Lingchu wished she could stab the Heavenly Dao to death. What kind of stupid plot-driven death was that? Where did she learn that from?

This is clearly Plants vs. Zombies, with wave after wave of zombies dying.

How many waves are there in total?

When the others heard what the system said, they felt like the sky had fallen.

This one wave had already exhausted them, but they didn't expect there to be more to come.

The system said: "There are three waves in total, each 10 minutes apart. You have 10 minutes to rest, so hurry and replenish your stamina."

Upon hearing the system's words, Gu Wangyan quickly said, "Everyone, rest where you are and replenish your energy. Who knows what else awaits us?"
