Reborn as a poor scholar in the Great Sheng dynasty, he draws Wang Yun from the start.
The System gives him the ability to sow discord among enemy generals. All he has to do is talk, and the morale of the opposing army drops by half.
Later, he summons Zhang Zhao, whose “Rally Morale” skill lets the troops endure a little longer just by flipping through the accounts.
Then Chen Gong arrives. He sketches “Ambush on All Sides” on the ground, and the mechanical tigers charge out, throwing the enemy formation into chaos all by themselves.
The mechanical tigers and wolves are just the appetizer. In the blueprint column, the Vermilion Bird, White Tiger, Black Tortoise, and Azure Dragon are all lit up in a row.
At the very bottom, a line of gray text reads: “Prototype of the Mechanical City.”
The court’s shamans summon a false god’s shadow that blots out the sky.
Lin Mo squats in the courtyard and wipes the back of an iron spider. Without even looking up, he says, “Fit the Vermilion Bird with wings. String the White Tiger’s bow.”
Behind him, the eyes of the Four Sacred Beasts light up one by one.
The civil and military officials he summons wield skills from Romance of the Three Kingdoms: Heroes of the Three Kingdoms and Romance of the Three Kingdoms: Cao Cao’s Side, while the courtyard is full of wooden contraptions passed down from The Legend of Qin.
He has gathered everything the court has lost.
The System asks why all his summoned generals are men. Obviously, he’s here to build an empire.
