Chapter 64: The Goddess is Actually a Little Girl

~8 min read 1,441 words

Looking at the mountain of medicine, Xiao Moting was momentarily unable to collect his thoughts.

He felt a bit dazed.

Every time he needed help the most, she always appeared just in time.

Could this be a meeting of minds?

Xiao Moting had the medicine distributed.

A group of soldiers who received the medicine knelt on the ground and kowtowed toward Xiao Moting's tent.

"Thank you, Shennü Daren, thank you, Prince of Zhenbei, for bestowing the medicine!"

They were all Zhang Zhao's soldiers, the lowest-ranking foot soldiers.

Back when they were under Yang Wei, they received the lowest pay, did the most exhausting work, charged to the front in battle, and were not even qualified to use good medicine when they were sick or injured.

But in the Beijiang Camp, they ate well, lived well, and could even use top-tier divine medicine!

For a commander like this, everyone was willing to risk their lives.

Not to mention, Xiao Moting also had the protection of the gods!

Suddenly, a USB Flash Drive appeared in the wardrobe.

"Xiao Moting, I've copied the things you wanted onto the USB Flash Drive. Plug it into the Projector quickly and see if these weapons can be used."

Xiao Moting immediately grasped the USB Flash Drive in his hand.

He turned on the Projector.

Instantly, an image appeared on the white cloth.

The Beijiang Army was already very familiar with the Projector and was no longer surprised.

But Zhang Zhao was full of shock, pointing his finger at the white cloth.

"People... how did they get sucked into the painting? Could there be ghosts?"

His several Deputy Generals were also badly frightened.

Someone even crawled under the table, shouting.

"King of Hell, I haven't died of illness yet, don't suck my soul!"

Xiao Dabao, along with Qin Zhan and several other Beijiang generals, burst into laughter.

Xiao Moting raised an eyebrow, "Don't just laugh at others; you were all like this at first."

He walked up to Zhang Zhao.

"Old General Zhang, let me explain to you: this is a Projector sent by Shennü Daren, and its purpose is..."

Half a cup of tea later.

Zhang Zhao and several generals nodded incessantly, their faces full of conviction.

They were stunned by what they had heard!

Never did they expect that Shennü Daren could actually bring people in a painting to life!

Truly, her divine power was boundless!

The video playing was the campaign of Yue Fei resisting the Jin Dynasty cavalry, and the group watched with admiration and submission.

Xiao Moting stared at the hook-sickle spears in the video, feeling heartfelt admiration.

"Shennü Daren, your General Yue Fei is truly a famous general for the ages!"

"The hook-sickle spears he invented to cut horse hooves can absolutely be used to deal with the Great Ye's Iron Pagoda cavalry."

"There is still plenty of the White Cast Iron you sent last time left; I will order the craftsmen to forge them immediately."

Just as he finished writing, he received a reply from Bai Wei.

"It's good that you can use it. Leave the matter of forging weapons to me."

"How many carpenters are in the camp? Gather everyone who knows carpentry; I will send you another weapon with even greater power."

Xiao Moting frowned.

"But time is tight; I'm afraid it will be too late if you have people forge weapons."

"It doesn't matter, I have an ironworks factory that can produce twenty thousand weapons in three days."

Xiao Moting was shocked.

Xiao Dabao could not see their conversation and kept asking anxiously from the side.

"Prince, what did Shennü Daren say?"

Xiao Moting calmed his emotions.

"Shennü Daren said she would help us forge weapons, and she can produce twenty thousand in three days."

As soon as he finished speaking, the tent fell silent.

Every general's face revealed an expression of disbelief.

Especially Zhang Zhao, who was so shocked his mouth hung open and his eyes were wide.

Producing twenty thousand hook-sickle spears in three days—what kind of divine power could achieve this?

Forging one high-quality broadsword takes seven days and seven nights.

Even if the country's blacksmiths were gathered and spent a whole year, they could at most forge two or three thousand hook-sickle spears.

The Goddess could actually do it in just three days?

Zhang Zhao's face was filled with worship.

At this moment, he was completely conquered.

Xiao Moting said, "Shennü Daren said she would also send us a weapon with even greater power."

"Boom—"

The door of the wardrobe suddenly opened on its own.

Everyone felt a blur before their eyes, and when they came to their senses, they were shocked to discover two strange objects on the open ground in front of them.

One of them was a massive object, mounted with three Iron Spears thicker than javelins.

The other weapon looked like a long spear, but its tip was a slender, sharp spike!

Xiao Moting suppressed the shock in his heart and examined these two weapons.

Even if he did not recognize them, just by looking at the design of that massive object, he knew its lethality was extreme!

Several greedy soldiers could not wait to step forward, surrounding the Bed Crossbow to look it over.

"This big arrow is thicker than my arm; if it were fired, no army of thousands could stop it."

"The Heavy Armored Infantry of Great Ye will likely be skewered like candied haws by it."

At this moment, a message from Bai Wei arrived.

"Xiao Moting, that big guy is called a Three-Bow Bed Crossbow; one launch can shoot down a whole row of cavalry."

"The other piece is an Armor-Piercing Awl invented on our side; I am sending you a video of how to use it."

A USB Flash Drive appeared in the wardrobe again.

Xiao Moting did not hesitate and immediately opened it to play.

But this time, what appeared on the screen was not an army of thousands, but a strange place.

On the screen was a wide sandy field, with dozens of targets and wooden figures wearing armor placed in front.

It looked like the training grounds where they drilled troops.

Surrounding the training ground were two square, single-story buildings; he did not know what material they were built from, but the walls were covered with pieces of white ceramic and fitted with blue glazed windows, looking clean and neat, sparkling in the sunlight.

"Is this where the people on the Goddess's side live?" Xiao Dabao watched with extreme envy.

Just then, a petite girl walked to the front holding an Armor-Piercing Awl.

In the video, only her back was captured.

Xiao Moting suddenly held his breath, an indescribable excitement surging in his heart.

Could this girl be Shennü Daren?

The girl had her hair tied in a ponytail and was wearing strange long clothes and trousers.

She held the Armor-Piercing Awl with both hands and thrust it forward with force!

The tip of the awl instantly pierced through the armor and stabbed deep into the body of the wooden figure.

"Xiao Moting, watch closely; this is how the Armor-Piercing Awl is used. You must stab this part of the armor; other places won't work!"

Xiao Moting's mind went blank, followed by a rush of hot blood surging to his head.

It is her!

He had heard Shennü Daren's voice through the loudspeaker!

"This... isn't this Shennü Daren's voice?" Xiao Dabao was also stunned.

The next moment, he excitedly threw himself in front of the screen.

"Shennü Daren, it's me, Dabao! Shennü Daren, my younger brother admires you so much! I beg you to come out of the picture; I want to kowtow to you in person."

For a time, all the generals in the entire tent were excited.

They had actually seen the Goddess!

Many people had assumed the Goddess would be white-haired and elderly, with the air of an immortal, just like an old deity.

But they never expected that the real Shennü Daren would be a slender young girl!

Xiao Moting stared at the screen without blinking.

His expression was as calm as ever, but his heart was already churning like a stormy sea!

He had finally seen her.

Although Bai Wei had told him that the screen only recorded images and was not a real person.

Xiao Moting still could not control his excitement.

In his dreams, he had imagined what Bai Wei looked like countless times.

But for every one, he felt it was not her.

Now that Bai Wei was right before his eyes, he could not wait to see what she truly looked like.
