Fusu?
Zhu Biao?
Li Chengqian?
At Qin Ning’s words, everyone present was stunned.
These three names—anyone with even a basic understanding of history would have heard of them.
But this didn’t add up.
Wasn’t Fusu the eldest son of the Qin dynasty?
And what about Ming Crown Prince Zhu Biao, and Tang Crown Prince Li Chengqian?
Li Yunlong couldn’t help but say, “I thought it was already a crazy coincidence that Wang Yousheng and I were college classmates. I never imagined the world could have something even more uncanny than that. These three… are those really their real names? And they all live here? That’s way too much of a coincidence.”
Qin Ning chuckled upon hearing this and asked, “It’s not simply a coincidence. Those three are exactly who you think they are.”
Upon hearing this, Li Yunlong was at a loss for words. Behind him, the soldiers couldn’t help exchanging glances and murmuring among themselves.
“Do you mean, sir… that one of these three is Fusu of the Qin dynasty, one is Zhu Bo of the Ming dynasty, and one is Li Chengqian of the Tang dynasty?” Li Yunlong asked.
But as soon as he finished that question, he felt like slapping himself.
How could that possibly be true?
Weren’t those all historical figures?
His question was truly foolish.
“Yes.”
Yet, to his utter disbelief, Qin Ning actually nodded.
“How is that possible?”
Li Yunlong wasn’t the only one—everyone present wore expressions of sheer incredulity.
“Time-Space Special Forces. Do you now understand what ‘time and space’ means?” Qin Ning asked.
Li Yunlong pursed his lips. “It’s not going to be that we actually travel through time and space to fight, is it?”
He had seen and heard plenty of absurd things before, but what Qin Ning was saying now had already crossed into an unprecedented level of absurdity.
Anyway, he didn’t believe such things could really exist in this world.
“Hmph…”
In response to Li Yunlong’s doubt, Qin Ning simply smiled without answering.
“Shwoosh!”
With that, he leaped into the air and instantly vanished from where he stood.
By the time Li Yunlong and the others realized what had happened, they were astonished to see Qin Ning hovering in the sky directly above them, standing there in midair as if it were nothing.
How was that possible?
This single sight shattered their entire worldview.
“Slash!”
Under their disbelieving gazes, Qin Ning lightly waved his hand.
The next moment, a large tree at the edge of the square was cleaved cleanly in two.
“This…”
“How is this possible?”
Everyone was dumbstruck, faces filled with shock.
“Do you believe it now?”
Qin Ning slowly descended to the ground, his gaze sweeping over them.
“There are many things that few people know about now, but you are the lucky ones—because from today on, you will begin to come into contact with realms you’ve never set foot in before.”
“Now tell me, are you willing to follow me, travel across time and space to the various dynasties, and make up for the regrets left behind in history?”
The crowd was still in shock, but after Qin Ning’s words fell, they quickly came to their senses and shouted in unison, “Yes!”
“Then let’s go!”
Qin Ning wasted no more words.
He lightly raised his hand, and in the next moment, everyone felt a weightless sensation sweeping through their bodies.
When their vision returned, they had already arrived at a base on the outskirts of the capital.
“Where is this place? How did we get here?”
That was the first question popping into everyone’s mind.
“This is a training base on the outskirts of the capital, known to very few people,” Qin Ning said.
The capital?
Hearing this, they were all left utterly speechless.
From Willow City to the capital?
In the blink of an eye?
Was it real or fake?
Were they dreaming?
Still in shock, they began to take in the various facilities and buildings at the base—and were stunned once again.
In a distant open area, a large group of soldiers was training.
But these soldiers were completely different from them.
The content of their training was entirely beyond their comprehension.
Some even withstood bullets with their bare bodies!
“Th-this… this!”
Everyone stood rooted to the spot.
They couldn’t bring themselves to believe that such a mysterious base existed within the country.
This had completely shattered their understanding of the mundane world.
“Holy crap! That’s an aerial carrier! Did you see the leaked video last time? It was this exact aerial carrier! It’s real!” someone exclaimed.
The crowd followed the direction he was pointing and saw an aerial carrier parked in a distant square.
Even from far away, they could still feel how massive that thing was.
“Whoosh!”
Suddenly, a sharp, piercing sound reached their ears.
Then, they saw a figure rise into the air from the ground not far off. Flames spouted from the bottom of his feet, forming Mach rings!
“Holy sht!”
“Iron Man?!”
“This thing actually exists? And it’s been invented?”
No one could hold back their astonishment. Their worldview had already been shattered into pieces.
“Follow me.”
Qin Ning’s voice pulled them back from their shock. The crowd quickly followed his footsteps toward the distance.
Before long, they arrived in front of several giant teleportation portals.
“Tang Dynasty, Qin Dynasty, Ming Dynasty…”
Li Yunlong looked at the three portals, each marked with a name.
He couldn’t help asking, “Sir, are these the time-space portals?”
“That’s right.”
Qin Ning nodded. “These three portals connect to the Tang, Qin, and Ming time-spaces respectively. This time, we’ll be heading to the Tang Dynasty first to rendezvous with Old Li and the others, and then go together to the Tianbao era.”
“Old Li?”
At this, Li Yunlong asked again, “Sir, you don’t mean Li Shimin, do you?”
“Who else could it be other than you, Old Li?” Qin Ning teased.
In the group, a soldier who had a good grasp of history spoke up: “Sir, you just mentioned the Tianbao era… Are you talking about the An Lushan Rebellion?”
“Yes,” Qin Ning confirmed.
“I remember that during the Tianbao era of the An Lushan Rebellion, there were several famous battles: the Battle of Xiangji Temple, the Battle of Suiyang, and the Battle of Tong Pass. Which one are we heading to?”
“All of them,” Qin Ning said.
“Alright. If you have questions, ask them later. Just now, when you first got here, you were like country bumpkins who had never seen the world—and that’s because everything in this base is way too advanced for you.”
“Now, it’s your turn to make others feel like country bumpkins. Follow me in giving those indigenous people of the Tang Dynasty a little shock. Let them see what the armies of future generations are really like.”
Qin Ning declared.
