Chapter 834: Agents from the Ancient Times

In ancient Chinese legends, Pangu created the world, broke through the chaos, and divided Yin and Yang at dawn.

What followed was a magnificent mythological era, when Nuwa created humans and all things were born.

The two gods of water and fire fought, Gonggong knocked down Mount Buzhou, and Nuwa quarried stones to mend the sky.

Hou Yi shot the sun, Jingwei reclaimed the sea, Huang Di fought against Chi You, and so on.

These ancient and beautiful legends are the ancients' imagination of unknown things, and also include their observation and understanding of the universe and nature.

Although it is a myth from ancient times, it contains profound philosophy.

For example, the creation of the world by Pangu coincides with the mainstream Big Bang theory of the universe.

In the eyes of the world, the ancient wisdom from the East is mysterious and profound.

As a half-historian, Jack has known about Chinese civilization for a long time.

But he never expected that what he saw on the mural today would completely overturn his understanding of the ancient East!

"This is impossible!"

I saw large reliefs on the walls, depicting a magnificent war.

The two sides fighting were Huang Di and Chi You, who are well known to the world.

As the ancestor of Chinese civilization, the Yellow Emperor has a majestic and tall image, standing on a four-wheeled carriage, holding a spear, and commanding thousands of troops.

The Chi You tribe on the other side are all strange creatures, and most of them are not even human!

The leader of the group, Chi You, had a ferocious appearance, with a green face and sharp fangs, showing his fierce look.

The brothers standing behind him were similar in appearance to him. They were all giant men about one foot tall, and each of them was filled with murderous intent.

These are nothing. In most literary and artistic works, the descriptions of Huang Di and Chi You are almost the same.

What shocked Jack and others was the soldiers on both sides!

The army of monsters behind Chi You had different shapes, but they looked very familiar.

Human-faced owl, mouth monkey, sea monkey, blue-eyed fox demon, white-haired drought demon, black-haired forbidden woman, dead human fetus, cockscomb snake, etc.

They have seen most of the monsters in the murals with their own eyes!

From the clues known so far, these mutated monsters are the products of ultimate transformation.

But in the murals, they all became Chi You's subordinates.

This means that the ultimate has come to this world as early as the Huangdi era and intervened in the activities of human society!

Not only that, the soldiers under Huang Di on the other side were equally shocking.

I saw those burly and majestic soldiers, all wearing uniform armor. The style of these armors has never appeared in any ancient books, and it is the first time that it has been discovered in history.

But in the eyes of modern people like them, these armors look very familiar, with a sense of advanced science fiction.

Wuxie couldn't help but open her mouth wide and shouted in surprise.

"This...isn't this an exoskeleton armor?"

The exoskeleton device is a future weapon that militaries of various countries have only begun to develop in the past two decades!

These devices greatly improve the soldiers' load-bearing and combat capabilities, and are equivalent to small mechas that can be worn on the body!

But the problem is that this future weapon is not yet mature and is still in the laboratory.

It may take decades to deploy troops on a large scale.

But as early as ancient times, the Yellow Emperor's soldiers were all equipped with such futuristic weapons!

When the fat man took a closer look, his jaw dropped.

"The thing this soldier is carrying on his shoulder seems to be an anti-tank rocket launcher!"

"That thing seems to be a flamethrower and a Gatling cannon!"

"What kind of army of gods are these!"

Although the murals have experienced thousands of years of erosion and have become somewhat blurred, these modern weapons can still be easily identified!

Huangdi's men are a high-tech modern army!

Hu Bayi said after wiping a cold sweat.

"If you think about it carefully, the description of this mural is actually very reasonable, because only this kind of army can fight against those monsters."

In ancient times, if you used broadswords and spears to fight against an army of mutated monsters, unless every soldier was a supreme master in cultivation, you would die without any chance of winning.

Only an army equipped with modern weapons can win this war!

In fact, Huangdi did win.

Jack pointed at the mural and said shakily.

"But why do they have weapons from the future?"

In an era before metal smelting was invented, these weapons should not have appeared.

People looked at each other and immediately thought of a possibility.

Maybe it's the only explanation.

Zhang family!

The Zhang family has mastered technological power far beyond the times. Only they can create such modern weapons!

The fat man looked at the younger brother in disbelief and said blankly.

"Could it be that... Huangdi's surname is Zhang?"

The younger brother shook his head slightly and said.

"No, Huangdi is not from the Zhang family."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pointed at the Yellow Emperor's right hand on the mural.

That hand was no different from an ordinary person's, just thicker.

The Zhang family has a unique feature. The index and middle fingers of their right hand are longer than those of ordinary people.

From this point, it can be determined that Huangdi is not a member of the Zhang family.

After everyone heard this, they quickly checked the mural again.

It turned out that there was no Zhang family member among the soldiers!

Wuxie couldn't help but frown and said with a surprised look.

"This is strange. There is no Zhang family. Where did they get these weapons?"

After Wang Kaixuan thought for a while, he grinned and said.

"Do you even need to ask? Of course I bought it from the Zhang family. Have you ever seen an arms dealer go to the battlefield in person?"

When the fat man heard this, he slapped his thigh and said.

"Brother Wang is right. No matter whether the war is won or lost, there is only one winner in the end, that is, the arms dealer."

"The Zhang family can make a lot of money by selling weapons. There is no need to go to war. This is what smart people will do!"

Wu Xie rolled his eyes at them and said.

"You are thinking about the problem from the perspective of modern people, which is not in line with the actual situation at that time."

"I will ask you a simple question. In the primitive tribal era with low productivity, transactions were all barter. I am afraid that currency has not been invented yet."

"Even if it is invented, what can the Zhang family buy with this money?"

The value of currency can only be reflected in the exchange of goods, but in that era, what goods can the Zhang family buy from the primitive tribe?

Food, livestock, pottery, fur, or slaves?

In terms of the Zhang family's technological strength, these goods have no meaning to them!

Wang Kaixuan's speculation was easily overturned.

Everyone looked at the little brother. Perhaps only he knew what role the Zhang family played.

After thinking about it carefully, the young man suddenly thought of a possibility.

"Agent!"

The fat man was stunned and asked.

"What? Was there such a concept as an agent in that era?"

The young man shook his head, pointed to the Yellow Emperor and Chi You in the mural, and said word by word.

"This is a proxy war!"
