Gacha games can't save this bizarre world.

Zhao Hao set up a barrier outside the cave to prevent the fragrance from spreading and being smelled by the giant.

Zhao Hao has probably found the giants' gathering place, which is a huge castle built on a high mountain, about ten kilometers away.

Given the height and leg length of those giants, these ten-odd kilometers are equivalent to less than a few kilometers.

He decided not to enter the castle yet, but to hunt down as many giants as possible on the outskirts, because he sensed the presence of magic outside the castle.

The giant we killed before didn't have any psychic powers, but now it seems there are superhumans among the giants. Maybe it was a giant mage!

As expected, the mysterious realm is not as simple as it seems.

If it were just something like that ordinary giant, Zhao Hao could handle even a thousand of them.

Instead of confronting them head-on, we'll just kill them one by one.

Then think about it, how could fairy tales be without magic?

In the fairy tale of Jack and the Beanstalk, the giant in the sky also has a goose (or chicken) that lays golden eggs, and a harp that can sing by itself.

By the way, which version of the fairy tale features a large group of giants?

After eating and drinking his fill, Zhao Hao began preparing to hunt down the giants.

He first tossed the clay pot containing the magic beans to the clay golem, letting it absorb them.

This allows it to form a psionic shield on its surface, or to create a psionic-resistant terracotta shield.

Then check on Xiao Ruan's status. When the giant ate her, she was only a little over three meters tall, but after the time was up, she would return to her original size.

After Xiao Ruan digested him, she suddenly swelled up, growing to a diameter of ten meters like a balloon, almost bursting!

It's finally back to its original size.

And as a blessing in disguise, the size of the little soft thing actually increased a lot!

The little creature has some elasticity and can change size, but its maximum size is only an oval shape about four meters long. It has now grown by more than one meter.

It seems that eating giants is a great way to grow stronger!

Moreover, because of the sudden growth of the little soft thing, Zhao Hao thought of a good way to eliminate the giant.

That's right, it's the same method Sun Wukong used back then: "Sister-in-law, open your mouth."

If we shrink the big rock and let the giant eat it, or even stuff it into his ear canal, then when the time comes! Hooray!

The giant's ear holes were thicker than a normal person's thighs; Zhao Hao could shrink a rock the size of an ox and throw it in!

While Zhao Hao was contemplating his wicked schemes in the sky, the three extraordinary individuals on the ground also met their respective ends.

The old monk's magic was quite remarkable, but like traditional mages, it was severely unbalanced. Compared to superhumans who had lived for thousands of years and possessed a complete combat system, he still had shortcomings.

The wolf shepherd, at the cost of killing three giant wolves and sustaining minor injuries himself, dismembered the old cultivator. The wolves devoured the old cultivator's corpse, making the giant wolves even larger and stronger!

The wolf shepherd didn't get any information from the old monk, but he did get a bronze plaque with the name of a monastery on it.

He thought for a moment: Jack just got the magic beans, and all it takes is a heavy rain for the magic beans to fly into the sky. He should hurry up and go to the monastery to take a look.

That old monk knows magic; maybe the monastery has some good stuff.

Moreover, the magic bean was created by the monks who attempted to open the gates of heaven, and the crown that later controlled the giants was also their creation.

Even if they don't have anything good, they should still have a lot of detailed information.

So he inquired about the location of the monastery and went there that very night with his pack of wolves.

The hunter killed the berserk bull demon and was worshipped as a hero by the townspeople.

The knight was received by the king and treated as an honored guest.

Chapter 200 The Princess Ascends to Heaven!

Corrodo Valley Monastery is an old monastery with a history of several hundred years.

It sits on a solitary peak on a cliff edge in the canyon, connected only by a precipitous suspension bridge, making it as easily defensible as a castle in a story.

The monastery was quite large, but it only had sixteen or seventeen monks, and fewer than thirty people including servants. Moreover, the monks were old and the children were young, making it virtually isolated from the world.

Remember what I said before? Were those magic beans magical creations made by monks who wanted to ascend to heaven and enter the gates of heaven?

Instead of finding the Gates of Heaven, they found the Kingdom of Giants on Sky Island.

The giants climbed up the magic bean vines to the ground and began burning, killing, and eating people. Many small countries were almost wiped out, and the entire continent's humanity was in grave danger.

However, while there are giants in the sky, those on the ground are not without their own strength. The fact that cultivators can create magic beans demonstrates that there are also extraordinary beings on the ground.

Thus began a brutal battle that lasted for over a decade. More than half of the human kingdoms were destroyed, and the giants also suffered heavy casualties.

Finally, it was this group of monks who redeemed themselves by creating a magical ritual, using a large number of giant hearts as materials to melt down magical metals and make a crown!

The crown's magical power could control giants. A king named Eric wore it and used it to defeat the giants' invasion. He then controlled them to climb the magic bean vines and return to the Cloud Kingdom. Finally, he cut the magic bean vines, restoring peace to the world.

Of course, this is just a simple fairy tale; in real history, there must have been a lot of intrigue and bloodshed.

The legendary King Eric was the ancestor of the current king.

Now the king is over fifty years old, has a dignified appearance, and can be considered a qualified monarch.

He has a daughter, a beautiful young woman of sixteen. She's the one Hospital Knight met at the circus.

The Cordoba Monastery is now awash in blood; young and old, chickens and dogs alike, were all torn apart and devoured by the giant wolves. Several terrified heads lie at the entrance, along with vast pools of filthy blood…

The wolf shepherd didn't find any other monks with psionic abilities in the monastery, and naturally didn't encounter any significant resistance.

He searched around and finally found an ancient book in a secret room, which recorded the story in detail and even the magic used to create Eric's Crown.

It also records why King Erik did not choose to completely eliminate the giant race or rule the world by enslaving the giants.

Because the crown had a problem and was made hastily, it was only a semi-finished product, with limited effect and time.

Therefore, King Eric chose a safer approach to end the battle.

Meanwhile, ancient texts recorded methods for perfecting Eric's Crown, methods later discovered by monks. They remained steadfast in their desire for the Gates of Heaven, plotting to replant magic beans in the Cloud Giant Kingdom.

Unfortunately, the monks' plan was exposed, and they were eventually slaughtered by King Eric.

The cultivator killed by the wolf shepherd was a descendant of one of the few cultivators who escaped back then.

According to his diary, he has found the location where the Crown of Eric is hidden and plans to steal the magic beans to reconnect with the Cloud Kingdom. He then intends to use this opportunity to complete the final forging of the Crown of Eric and gain control of the Cloud Kingdom and the Giants.

He didn't want to rule the world; he just wanted to enter the legendary gates of heaven!

He wrote in his diary, "The Kingdom of Heaven will come!" That's the spirit of it!

So, who keeps a diary if they're a decent person?

The wolf shepherd was very interested in the Heavenly Gate, thinking it must be a path or route to some kind of realm. Anyway, it was like killing two birds with one stone, so it was all just a side effect.

Just as the wolfherd finished reading the last word, a bolt of lightning flashed across the overcast sky. The rain poured down...

While the wolf shepherds were killing people at the monastery, the princess rode her horse out of the city and ran away from home!

The reason is very old-fashioned: running away from the wedding.

The rain came so suddenly that she was drenched, and she had no choice but to seek help from a simple wooden hut in a nearby pumpkin farm.

Isn't that a coincidence? The very door opened to find the protagonist, Jack, standing right there!

Jack was orphaned at a young age and raised by his uncle; this is the true protagonist's background.

Because he grew and ate pumpkins since he was a child, and made a living from pumpkins, and the pumpkins he grew were particularly large, he was called Pumpkin Jack by the people around him.

This incident of selling the cow infuriated the honest and unassuming uncle. He not only slapped Jack but also smashed the beans Jack had received in exchange.

Jack quickly picked up the beans, but one still slipped through a crack in the planks and fell into the dirt below the house.

The rain poured down, quickly soaking the ground beneath the house. Then the magic bean began to take root and sprout.

In the blink of an eye, the bean sprout had grown to the thickness of a thigh and was still growing and expanding.

When Jack opened the door, he saw the live-streaming goddess standing right in front of him. He was speechless and at a loss for words.

Just as I was thinking about how to lick it, a rumbling sound suddenly came from beneath my feet. Immediately afterwards, the house shook, creaked, planks snapped, and the house collapsed.

The princess and Jack were terrified and screamed, but Jack's voice was several octaves louder than the princess's.

Suddenly, a green vine thicker than a waist pierced through the floor and entered the house, beginning to grow and expand wildly, becoming even thicker and larger. Then it broke through the roof and grew upwards.

Then suddenly I felt weightless, and then the whole house began to float away.

The house flew away; it went up to the sky.

The princess didn't realize what was happening and went up into the sky with the house.

At the crucial moment, Jack faced a choice between the goddess and his life, but he decisively chose life. He let go of the wooden house he was clinging to, and with the cushioning of a few broad soybean leaves, he fell to the ground and passed out.

In the dense rain, a dozen pairs of deep blue eyes watched the bean vines soaring into the sky, and also watched Jack lying unconscious on the ground.

One of the laws of the eerie world is that the protagonist cannot die. Otherwise, something terrible will happen.

After a long time, watching the towering pea shoots disappear into the clouds and stop growing, the wolf shepherd opened a huge leather bag, and the giant wolves filed in, yet it did not bulge at all.

Then, carrying a leather bag on his back, he jumped onto the bean sprouts that had grown as tall as vines reaching to the sky and climbed up into the heavens.

Meanwhile, a group of people were furtively discussing something in a corner of the tavern.

Anyone whose eyes swept over these fierce-looking, burly men would be met with a vicious glare.

Among these people were notorious bandits and thieves, including the infamous thief couple Jack and Jill.

These two are notorious murderers and robbers, committing all sorts of evil deeds. Even among thieves, they are infamous.

But now, their leader was a short, fat, and round dwarf. A flash of firelight revealed a strange egg as its shadow on the wall.

"We've found out where the magic beans are. We'll set off as soon as the rain stops. We have to succeed this time, or the Earl won't give us another chance!"

At this time, the king in the palace also learned that the princess had run away from her arranged marriage, and he immediately sent his chief guard to search for her.

For a time, all the forces seemed to be connected by an invisible thread, and finally tied at a point.

Chapter 201 Everyone Also Went to Heaven

The next morning, Jack, who was in a coma, opened his eyes and found a group of people looking down at him.
