Gacha games can't save this bizarre world.

Ao Wu: Who turned off the lights? I really thank you!

A man, a cat, a dog, and an earthen puppet spent a long time trying to come up with a solution, and finally tickled the giant, which made him change his posture.

Ao Wu: "We're finally out! It was so dark inside!"

Zhao Hao quickly asked, "How is it?"

Ao Wu grinned, revealing a sly smile, and gave an OK sign. "You can trust me to handle things!"

Zhao Hao and the others hid in a corner and spied on the scene, timing it precisely. Zhao Hao made a hand seal to activate his spiritual energy, and the giant lying dozens of meters away suddenly convulsed, his entire body arching backward on the ground!

He remained motionless for seven or eight seconds before crashing to the ground with a thud, blood trickling from his face, especially his ears.

After the giant convulsed a few times, Zhao Hao's fate points were credited to his account.

The object was placed deep inside the ear canal, instantly enlarging and shooting countless sharp spikes into the brain, killing the giant warrior instantly. Brain dead, it didn't even struggle.

The whole process was clean and efficient, without making any unnecessary noise.

The results were pretty much as expected, but the efficiency was a bit low. It took over thirty minutes to kill a giant; this speed is unacceptable. The capitalists will be furious if they see this.

What's more, this is a lone, active target, and there are also those giants huddled together in twos and threes, men on top of men!

This is tricky!

Zhao Hao thought that using drugs would be faster. Just looking at that giant chef, he knew their food hygiene conditions were definitely substandard.

If we were to use something drastic against them, like Yin Yang He Huan San (a type of herbal medicine), or even something like "I love a piece of firewood"—no, I mean Yin Yang Jue Ming San (another type of herbal medicine), or "Han Xiao Ban Bu Dian" (another type of herbal medicine)—wouldn't that wipe them all out in one fell swoop?

"I'm a man who understands my alchemy! I'll brew some for them!"

Zhao Hao decided to go back and brew the medicine.

Meanwhile, tons of various materials, insects, and scouts were deployed—paper, grass, wood, iron, soil, flying, crawling, burrowing… a motley crew searching for treasure through tunnels and openings.

Zhao Hao took Juzu back to the temporary shelter cave. Meizhi was about to boil a large pot of compound medicine when she suddenly realized that someone had been there before.

Orange said, "Who ate my Fiery Roasted Fennel Tomahawk Shadow Leopard Leg Steak?"

Ao Wu: "Who drank my super invincible ocean view oolong tea?"

Little Soft: "Gurgle gurgle (Who sat in my chair?)"

Wangcai: "Woof woof woof woof (Who dared to take my bed?!)"

Zhao Hao: "Where did my pajamas go?"

The princess, who had already woken up but dared not open her eyes or make a sound, waited for a long time before she secretly opened her eyes to look around after realizing that there was no movement in the cave.

She found that the cave was empty, and the commotion she had just experienced seemed like an illusion, so she breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, turning around, she saw an orange pig-cat, a pink snake that could fly in the sky with its hands on its hips, a white dog with a black back and intelligent eyes, its tongue hanging out to one side, a pale green, semi-transparent blob that she couldn't tell what it was but had two small green bead eyes, and a handsome man with a tall, canopy-covered earthen figure standing behind him... Now they were all staring at her!

The princess was already at her limit, terrified, hungry, and cold. When she suddenly saw all the villains, she was so excited that she fainted.

……

"So, Isabel, you're a princess from the surface world? And you were brought here by a plant?" Zhao Hao asked, while giving Orange a wink.

"Mmm-hmm. If you can send me back, my father will definitely repay you!" Isabel, wearing Zhao Hao's loose pajamas, curled up in a ball with her legs drawn up, nodding like a chick pecking at rice.

Orange silently ran away to find the Magic Bean Sprout, following the path Isabelle had taken.

Zhao Hao continued to probe Isabel's words, revealing that she was primarily interested in countries on Earth.

Zhao Hao initially thought this strange experience would be similar to his previous ones, only on a larger scale. He never imagined there was something on the ground beneath the clouds.

According to the fairy tale of the magic bean, that's indeed the case. It's just that the story doesn't mention a princess, so we don't know what kind of plot it is.

This is far more complex than the previous two eerie experiences.

Isabella was somewhat clever, but when surrounded by Zhao Hao's entire gang of villains, and with Zhao Hao demonstrating his ability to see through her lies, she became honest and spoke frankly without reservation.

Of course, the main reason was what Zhao Hao said: if he found out she was lying, kill her first, then rape her! Kill her again, then rape her again! Three kills and three rapes!

This isn't just a bunch of villains, this is a bunch of psychopaths!

A short while later, Tachibana returned and nodded to Zhao Hao.

It has discovered the location of the magic bean sprouts—the very spot where they first arrived. Indeed, everything has a deeper meaning!

It was late at night, and Zhao Hao decided to go to sleep. He gave the bed to Isabella and slept in his sleeping bag.

The next morning, Zhao Hao was about to leave. Isabella immediately became anxious and wanted to go with him.

Being in an unfamiliar place, she could only trust that everyone here was evil. At least last night, this man named Zhao Hao didn't do anything beastly to her.

Isabella had seen the giant's footprints on her way here, and now she only felt a little safe when she was with Zhao Hao, who was also human.

Zhao Hao thought about it and figured that Isabella must be an important person to have arrived safely in the sky, so it would be good to have her with him. He agreed.

He first went to the magic bean sprouts and set up a huge perception barrier, so that Zhao Hao would know if anyone passed by. He essentially planted a spies there.

Although he is still unaware of the existence of the three Werewolf superhumans, he is already prepared to face the humans on the ground.

He still chose to go to the Giant's Castle, because he couldn't bear to part with the Fate Point and the Giant's treasure.

He made Isabella drink a potion to remove her smell, as the giant's nose was extremely sensitive. Then he draped a cloak of disguise over her shoulders.

This cloak is made from the subcutaneous mucous membrane of a chameleon from the underworld. It can change its color and pattern to follow the terrain, providing excellent camouflage.

Even for a princess like Isabella, this was the first time she had ever encountered something like this. Although she had heard many fantastical stories, some even set in neighboring countries, this was her first time dealing with something like it. She touched the cloak every now and then, seemingly quite fond of it.

The last group went to the Giant's Castle.

There are fewer than fifty giants in the castle, the leader of which is a rare and powerful two-headed giant.

The two-headed giant was significantly taller than the other giants.

In addition to the normal head, it also has a smaller head.

Although that little head wasn't very bright, it could still wield the power of magic.

The two-headed giant ruled over the other giants with his strength and magic.

He had already discovered the gruesome death of the giant warrior yesterday, but he didn't take it seriously, since giants had died suddenly before.

Sometimes, fights between them can even result in several people being killed!

Zhao Hao, with Isabella by his side, secretly infiltrated the giant's castle, hiding and fleeing. His insect-like divine soldiers gradually returned with messages.

This morning, Zhao Hao randomly picked a few things that weren't quite right to eat and threw them into the big pot. These included poisonous mushrooms he bought at the market in the Otherworld, food scraps from the monsters in the Orange Tower, Xiao Ruan's digestive juices, and Ao Wu's boogers. Wang Cai even kicked its hind leg and made a pot of holy water for them...

While stirring, Zhao Hao chanted, "Heavenly spirits, earthly spirits, the medicine I brew is truly effective. One bowl and I guarantee you'll be on your way to Heaven!"

He wasn't sure if it would even work, but it was something to get by. He himself didn't think it could poison a giant.

About two hours later, after Zhao Hao killed another giant who was using the toilet, an insect scout brought good news: they had found an unusual place!

Zhao Hao rubbed his hands together and sneaked over. Just in case, he poured the pot of dark, murky medicine he had been brewing into the giant's soup pot in the kitchen...

"Have a good meal and drinks, everyone!"

Chapter 203 Drowning in Hell

While Zhao Hao was making glowing, drugged dishes on the cloud-top land, the warrior rescue team on the ground had already been on their way for some time.

The magic bean was incredibly tall; even the wolf shepherd, who had set off several hours earlier, had only climbed three-quarters of the way up. The others were barely halfway there.

It's getting dark!

Even more terrifying, the magic bean passed through the rain layer, a journey that was filled with wind and rain, wet, slippery, hungry, and cold! It was extremely dangerous and difficult.

Upon seeing this, Count Lauder, Princess Isabella's fiancé, quickly gave his men a wink.

His henchman grinned wickedly, then pulled out a knife and began cutting the rope behind him.

The warrior below, who belonged to the king, was terrified. Before he could even ask a question, the rope snapped.

A strong wind blew, and a whole string of warriors flew away with their ropes. They all belonged to the king.

Count Lauder felt regretful that the captain of the guard and the hospital knight were at the very front of the procession; otherwise, they could have been dealt with in one fell swoop!

Earl Lauder touched the crown he had hidden close to his body, and then thought about the group of people he had secretly arranged. He felt that this was a sure thing!

He thought he had secretly eliminated the king's men, but little did he know that the hunter Darian had seen it all.

He began to be wary of this hypocritical count...

After weathering the storm and spending a long, exhausting night, I finally caught a glimpse of the continent above the clouds.

Fortunately, the leaves of the magic bean sprouts were big enough that these people could rest and eat some dry food when they got tired; otherwise, they would have been exhausted to death.

With victory seemingly within reach, everyone pushed themselves harder as they climbed. Meanwhile, the wolf shepherd had already been on land in the clouds for some time.

As soon as he stepped ashore, Zhao Hao sensed him through the barrier.

The wolf shepherd cautiously surveyed his surroundings, then opened the leather pouch on his back and released more than a dozen giant wolves.

It's strange, though. When he killed the Demon Bean Cultivator, several of his giant wolves died, but now it seems there are two more! It's puzzling.

His giant wolf was a master at tracking its prey and quickly discovered suspicious traces.

"Is that Princess Isabel? She actually made it to the Cloud Kingdom alive; she must be an important figure. Never mind her, the most important thing is to find the crown from the giants..."

He directed the giant wolf to search for clues everywhere, and soon found the flock of sheep that the giant had previously raised, and then found the direction of the giant's castle.

……

At this moment, Zhao Hao and Isabella had arrived in front of the secret treasure vault.

The treasure trove was hidden behind an oil painting depicting a plump, elegant noblewoman.

The painting couldn't be moved or destroyed; it seemed like a magical device.

Zhao Hao began to try with great difficulty.

His soup, which had been laced with the Lucky Water potion, had already been devoured by more than thirty giant warriors.

Many giants also praised the old giant chef for the exceptionally rich flavor of the soup today.

Zhao Hao struggled for a long time, sweating profusely, but still couldn't move the painting.

Orange even resorted to knives, but even the money-stealing hook couldn't destroy the painting.
