I logged into Mr. Zombie

Pigsy tossed his hair in a showy manner.

╭ (╯ ^ ╰) ╮

"With me, Old Pig, around, you can forget about anything... Hey hey hey!"

A series of streaks of light flashed across the sky, with a monkey carrying a stick leading the way, followed by mass-produced "silly girls".

The monkey somersaulted ninety degrees in the air and sped away, catching the silly girls behind it off guard. It swung its stick in a wide arc to meet them.

"Boom boom boom——"

Clusters of fire exploded in the sky, and the resulting gusts of air blew Pigsy back several steps.

After stopping by using his rake to prop himself up on the ground, he shouted at the figure in the sky, "Brother Monkey, be careful!"

Sun Wukong didn't even glance at Zhu Bajie. After shouting "Well done!", he charged towards the surviving silly robot girls.

The streets were reduced to ruins, and people were fleeing in all directions.

"I am not wrong, right?"

Beside the trash can, the trio of thieves were quietly observing the fight.

"That looked like Sun Wukong!"

"If Pigsy is here, why is Monkey King coming too?"

"You don't understand this."

"Ding—" The leader, who was chewing on a cigar, took out a kerosene lighter.

The remaining man and woman turned to look at him with tacit understanding, their faces full of confusion.

"Do you know what class is? This is class. No matter when or where, as long as it makes a 'ding' sound, everyone's eyes will be on it and its owner."

"But nobody's watching you here."

"This shows that the people here are too barbaric and of too low a standard."

"Alright," said the only female thief. "What do you mean by 'something's not right'?"

"Lu Xiaoqian has found help again, which means the enemy is very strong."

"Then we'd better run quickly."

"Run my ass! Do you think your two legs can keep up with someone who can fly through the clouds?"

"Then what do you think we should do?"

"Wait."

"wait?"

"We're just three petty thieves. What else can we do besides stealing phones? Of course, we'll wait."

"..."X2
It was all just nonsense.

"Oh no, another one is flying over."

"That looks like... Mr. You, why is he wearing ancient costume?"

"Silver armor and black robes, quite handsome indeed~"

"Wait, a silly girl is flying over here, she saw us!"

In the midst of the fierce melee, a robot spotted the trio of thieves and immediately turned to fly towards them.

"Run!"

With a shout, the three of them stood up and ran away.

Before they could even take a step, the robot had already charged forward with a punch, its fist, whipped with wind, stopping just a finger's width away from their heads.

"Thump—" X3
The three turned their gaze to the back of the robot, where "You Suowei," clad in silver armor and a black robe, had grabbed the robot's calf with one hand.

The robot flipped over in an attempt to resist, but was struck on the head by a golden light and instantly collapsed.

His body landed with crackling electricity, twitched for a while, and then calmed down.

"Thank you so much, Mr. You, for saving my life!"

The three of them immediately expressed their gratitude.

"Fifth Brother?" The silver-armored, black-robed You Suowei looked at one of them, appearing somewhat dazed.

"I don't deserve it, Mr. You. How could I let you call me 'brother'? You are my brother, you can just call me Xiao Wu."

"Reincarnation?" The silver-armored, black-robed man's gaze shifted to the only female thief, "Fox Sister."

"Hey!" The thief, cigar in mouth, clapped his hands. "You've mistaken me for someone else! This guy looks like Boss You, but I'm guessing he isn't. Let me introduce you. I'm Wang Tianba, this is Xiao Wu, and this is Sun Feiyan. May I ask how we should address our savior?"

"Yang Jian."

"..."X3
He wore silver armor and a black robe, with a divine mark resembling a third eye between his brows, and held a three-pointed, double-edged sword in his hand.

If we say that You Suowei is already considered a top handsome man in the 21st century, then when compared with this person, we will find that apart from the similarity in their handsome faces, they are completely different in terms of temperament and eyes.

With Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie already present, Yang Jian's appearance wasn't too surprising.

"Huang Mei?" They noticed a figure following behind Yang Jian.

Noticing the three people's gazes, the figure let out a roar.

"Woof!"

The three stared wide-eyed, exclaiming in unison, "Howling Celestial Dog?!"

"You just said there's someone who looks just like me?" Yang Jian asked.

“Yes, his name is You Suowei!” Xiao Wu nodded immediately. “You and he look exactly alike! Oh my—”

Xiao Wu covered his head and looked at Wang Tianba: "Why did you hit me?"

"We thieves must have integrity; we can't betray others." Wang Tianba still touted himself as a moral exemplar.

This guy is murderous. If he takes a dislike to You Suo and kills him, they'll be his accomplices.

Xiao Wu retorted, "Maybe this Mr. Yang is Mr. You's ancestor. I call this a good thing."

"Alright, stop arguing," Sun Feiyan quickly advised.

After the three of them had been fooling around for a while, they came to their senses and found that Yang Jian had disappeared.

"Let's find a place to hide."

"Uh-huh!"

……

Tan Wenjie is located outside the atmosphere and is suspended in near-Earth orbit.

He looked down at the ground, calmly observing the water-blue planet shrouded in white currents, and took in the entire battle below.

The battle was intense, but overall our side held the advantage.

"Sun Wukong can fight a hundred men, Zhu Bajie can fight many men, and Lu Xiaoqian can fight one man at most." Once strength reaches a certain level, simply increasing quantity is meaningless. For example, Sun Wukong, although a weakened version, still came out after eating a buffet in Laozi's Tushita Palace.

The rate at which mana regenerates can completely offset the consumption.

With his indestructible body and ability to regenerate after being decapitated, Sun Wukong is invincible as long as he cannot be suppressed or destroyed in an instant, and he can dominate the battlefield as a meat grinder.

Just then, Lu Xiaoqian's voice came through his earpiece, sounding somewhat excited:
"Brother Jie, we have bad news and good news."

"explain."

"According to Silly Girl's calculations and predictions, the number of robots sent in the future may be endless. They can be mass-produced in factories and then simultaneously transported to our point in time. It will take some time to capture their spatial coordinates."

"Where's the bad news?"

"That's bad news."

Lu Xiaoqian sounded a little confused.

"How can it be bad news that factories will be able to mass-produce robots in the future?"

Mass production, as long as it doesn't result in something like Skynet or Ultron, represents a rapid, assembly-line-style production force.

Tan Wenjie does not need to mass-produce top-notch combat forces, but he can mass-produce logistics, support, labor, and so on.

A qualified team cannot consist of only soldiers.

Lu Xiaoqian on the other end of the headset fell silent: "..."

"And the other message?" Tan Wenjie asked, drawing his bow and aiming.

Clusters of energy arrows coalesced behind him, along with lightning, water, fire, and wind. As he released the bowstring, a meteor shower fell across the Earth.

The robots that were hit turned into fireworks, or like spores planted on the Earth's surface, quickly growing into mushroom clouds.

The signal also deteriorates due to airflow interference.

Amidst the crackling sounds, Lu Xiaoqian replied, "Two more helpers have arrived from the Tang Dynasty. Pigsy said they are Erlang Shen and the Seventh Princess."

Tan Wenjie: "..."

"Brother Jie, is the signal bad? Can you hear me?"

"What did you say?"

"I said, Erlang Shen Yang Jian and the Seventh Princess have arrived."

"Xiaoqian, you're an adult now. You need to be able to distinguish between good and bad. Don't let a pig influence your judgment."

"what?"

The fact that Yang Jian and the Seventh Princess came together looked like a brother-in-law and his lover coming to demand an explanation, which was definitely bad news.

Tan Wenjie immediately said, "Silly girl, lock onto the enemy's location. I'm in a hurry."

The silly girl replied, "It will take a while, please wait."

"That's just how your AI is, too polite. Can you switch to a human?"

He couldn't get angry with the silly girl, but he felt more at ease when Lu Xiaoqian scolded him.

"..."

He was met with only a long silence.

The silly girl has gone astray; she even uses silence instead of answering, which is a combination of the shortcomings of both humans and AI.

Tan Wenjie's continuous high-altitude firing had already attracted the attention of the robot swarm below, causing them to change direction and surge upwards like a torrent.

"boom!"

A beam of golden light cleaved through the swarm of robots, shattering countless wings as they crashed to the ground.

"Brother Jie, are you alright?"

Erlang Shen, dressed in the classic skin of the God of Justice, appeared before him wielding a three-pointed double-edged sword.

"No, what brings you here? Is Heaven on holiday?"

“Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie have abandoned their journey to the West and disappeared. I have been sent by the Queen Mother of the West to investigate,” Yang Jian replied. “As for me, I followed you here by following your trail.”

Another piece of bad news: the connection between the two worlds is becoming increasingly weak, and Yang Jian can now travel freely between them.

"So they were looking for Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie." Tan Wenjie breathed a sigh of relief.

"Brother Jie, what do you mean by this?"

"I thought you were here to find Sun Wukong and Zhu Bajie."

Yang Jian was already used to Tan Wenjie's speaking style, and although he was puzzled, he nodded and moved on.

"What are these strange things?"

"It's just a small problem. I'd go to great lengths for a friend. You know me, I'm a loyal friend."

Yang Jian nodded seriously this time, agreeing wholeheartedly with this point.

Tan Wenjie said, "I heard that the Seventh Princess is here too?"

“That’s right.” Yang Jian stepped aside to let Tan Wenjie see the Seventh Princess wielding her sword to slay the enemy.

She grew more and more excited as she killed, the sword in her hand whistling as she swung it.

Despite her seemingly low magical power, the Seventh Princess possesses a wealth of powerful magical artifacts and employs a variety of ingenious methods, making her the center of this battle.

The robots couldn't escape the Seventh Princess's attack range; they were being pulled along and forced to target her first.

However, the Seventh Princess possessed numerous magical treasures, making her impossible to harm with ordinary attacks.

"Brother Jie, I just saw someone who looks exactly like the fox demon Fifth Brother, a woman who looks exactly like Fox Sister, and a man who looks exactly like me." Yang Jian asked, voicing his confusion.

As deities, mortals might be reborn in their likeness, but they would always avoid looking exactly like them. For example, grandchildren would avoid using their fathers' names or the emperor's name.

Tan Wenjie countered, "Have you ever heard of parallel worlds?"

"I understand," Yang Jian nodded.

"You understand this?"

Who exactly is from ancient times? All the prepared lines are now useless.

"The Seventh Princess introduced me to her before she came, and she also told me a lot of stories to help me understand."

Tan Wenjie: "..."

If he wasn't mistaken, the stories the Seventh Princess told all came from the Huashan Library, which contained comics and novels he had prepared to amuse the Third Holy Mother.

The image of Yang Jian obediently listening to his cousin tell stories is quite interesting, but unfortunately, I didn't capture it on camera.

I'll ask You Suowei to help with the reshoots later.

The silly girl's voice came through: "Coordinates confirmed, activate time travel?"

"Open! Send us there immediately." (End of Chapter)
