Upon seeing the sailboats, Yang Zheng decided to return immediately for safety reasons.

He currently has nothing but a slingshot and some simple protective clothing; he doesn't have any proper weapons or equipment at all.

This small world has already seen the emergence of modern technological products such as airships.

With just a little careful calculation, it should be clear that firearms have definitely already appeared in this world.

You should know that on Earth in the previous life, firearms were developed many years earlier than airships.

Compared to airships, those simple firearms and other simple thermal weapons did not have much technological content.

The eighteen-meter-tall giant rushed down the mountain at top speed, and along the way, a large number of wild beasts and birds were frightened and cried out in all directions.

But Yang Zheng had no interest in those things.

At this moment, all he wanted was to get to the top of that hill as soon as possible and return to his real world.

On the way to the hillside, Yang Zheng kept thinking about it.

Why are the airship reinforcements only arriving now?

After carefully calculating the time, it seems that it has been eight or nine days since he first entered the small world.

The enemy reinforcements took so long to arrive, which suggests that the towns and villages of Lilliput must be at least several hundred kilometers away.

Converted to Earth's distance, it's tens of kilometers.

Tens of kilometers?

Thinking of this, a thought struck him.

"With my current physical condition and agility, I estimate I can get out of this primeval forest in a few hours, and then I'll be able to see the towns and civilization of the Lilliputians..."

However, that's something to do later.

The most urgent task at present is to go back and prepare weapons and equipment for fighting the enemy.

Suddenly, reinforcements from the Lilliputian Kingdom appeared. How many of them were there?

What weapons and equipment did they carry?

Could they really use machine guns and cannons?

My size is far too large in the eyes of those petty people; they could probably easily target and attack me.

If I get hit by the villain's heavy machine gun and cannon, will I die?

Thinking of all this, Yang Zheng frowned slightly.

"When I get back, I need to think carefully about what things on Earth could be used to deal with the Lilliputian army."

"Fireworks? Firecrackers? Flamethrowers? Fire extinguishers? Hmm... they all seem to lack power and range! But they could be somewhat useful in close-quarters combat..."

The giant ran wildly through the undulating mountains and forests, causing the entire earth to tremble slightly.

Unbeknownst to him, Yang Zheng had climbed over the small hill that was a hundred meters high and was standing once again at the foot of that cliff.

This time, the white tiger at the top of the cliff was not seen.

"Take the ladder back first, we'll need it next time!"

He quickly slung the mini telescopic ladder, which had shrunk to just over a meter long, over his shoulder and then sped off towards the hillside.

The distant horizon.

The strange black airship seemed to be guiding the sailboats, and was currently flying towards a mountain range on the left side.

Yang Zheng looked at it carefully and then memorized the direction.

He quickly arrived at the top of the hill where the portal was located.

I checked the time; it was already past four in the afternoon.

"Go back right now!"

He took out the black and white Tai Chi Bead, quickly opened the portal between the two worlds, and went inside.

………………

Suddenly everything went black.

His mind went blank for a moment, and when he opened his eyes again, he found himself in a spacious bedroom.

The portal was then closed.

Yang Zheng then picked up his phone and began searching earnestly.

First, I need to buy another set of armor, including a bulletproof vest and helmet.

Explosion-proof shield?

Yes, we must buy this; it should be able to withstand enemy artillery fire!

If facing enemy heavy machine guns and artillery, one must have some defensive capabilities.

Currently, the golden snakeskin cannot be divided and can only be temporarily stored upstairs. Hopefully, a way will be found in the future to divide it into pieces and make it into body armor.

Soon, Yang Zheng spent over a thousand yuan to buy a variety of miscellaneous armor, helmets, bulletproof vests, and helmets.

I also bought goggles.

After buying the defensive equipment, the next step is to get weapons.

As for weapons, you must choose them carefully.

It must possess extremely strong lethality and deterrent power; ideally, it should be able to utterly defeat those villains with a single strike, leaving them scattered and defeated.

Which weapons should I buy?

Yang Zheng rested his chin on his hand, lost in thought.

"Although I can't get my hands on guns and explosives, I can buy some powerful spring thunderbolts and thunderbolts, and after special modifications and additions, they should be extremely lethal to those tiny people who are only a dozen centimeters tall."

"Children's matchstick firecrackers and long firework tubes... forget about them! They're too weak. When I was a kid, they were only good for blowing up cow dung. They couldn't even kill larger insects. Buying them would be a waste of money."

"Making a simple petrol bomb out of a glass bottle? That's a possibility."

"Lime powder bombs, chili powder bombs, pepper powder bombs—these bombs are estimated to be very powerful, capable of instantly incapacitating the enemy!"

"Dry powder fire extinguishers? Foam fire extinguishers? And insecticide? We need to buy some of those too!"

"Should we buy a fish-eating machine? Electrocute them?"

Upon closer examination, Yang Zheng felt it wasn't very reliable.

The fish machine has too many parts, and you have to carry it on your back, so it's not very convenient to carry.

More importantly, the Ma Yu machine can only attack at close range. Those cunning little people probably won't engage in close combat with it; they'll just keep their distance and bombard it in turn.

Yang Zheng sat in the room for a long time, feeling that many things could be used, but also that many things probably wouldn't be very effective.

Finally, he decided to go to the hardware store himself and browse through the selections to see if he could find anything that would surprise him.

There's also a fireworks and firecrackers specialty store; I'll have to go there too.

Whenever they saw a cannon with tremendous power, they would buy it all to keep as spares.

Do it as soon as you think of it.

Yang Zheng couldn't wait to get on his electric bike and head out the door.

The black dog in the yard still hasn't come back; I wonder where it's been all day.

Once outside, his purpose was clear: to find a firecracker shop to check out.

For the next hour or so, Yang Zheng searched for a long time in the suburbs but couldn't find any specialty stores that sold firecrackers.

There's even less need to go into Linjiang city.

The city has banned the setting off of fireworks and firecrackers for many years.

In some rural areas outside the suburbs, although some small shops sell firecrackers, they are all low-powered firecrackers that are only loud but have no practical use.

He didn't see the powerful spring thunder he was looking for at all.

I remember watching a video on Douyin (TikTok) before. There was this energetic young man who was always carrying around firecrackers as thick as a thumb. He would either blow up water tanks or the exhaust pipes of abandoned vehicles.

It's incredibly powerful!

Those sturdy little water tanks were blown to pieces.

If you add some tiny iron needles or iron filings to it, it would definitely be a deadly weapon.

Unfortunately, he didn't know where to buy it.

I had no choice but to ask around.

"It's still better back home. They sell everything there, even torpedoes for blasting fish..."

The sky was already starting to darken, and when I checked the time, it was already past seven o'clock in the evening.

Yang Zheng stood under a bus shelter, took a big gulp of iced cola, and then prepared to call a taxi back.

The electric car was parked elsewhere for charging, so he kept hitchhiking afterwards.

Sudden,

Just then, he felt a sharp pain in his stomach.

"What's wrong? Why does my stomach hurt so much?"

His expression changed slightly, and he took a deep breath, instantly feeling more comfortable.

However, not long after, my stomach started to hurt again, like being pricked with needles.

At this moment, he vaguely sensed that something was wrong.

"Airflow! It's the airflow inside my stomach causing this!"

Ever since he swallowed the marrow of the exotic fruit, a strange current of energy has inexplicably appeared in his body.

The current of air seemed to be hidden in a specific area within his body. Under normal circumstances, he could clearly sense that the current flowed slowly and rhythmically in that area.

My body doesn't seem to be feeling any discomfort.

When he had nothing to do, he tried to control that strange airflow, but found it was completely useless.

But for some reason, at that moment, the flow of energy seemed to become disordered, rushing and crashing around inside his body, causing him excruciating pain in his stomach and making him feel extremely uncomfortable.

A faint worry crept into Yang Zheng's mind: "Could this be a side effect of consuming the exotic fruit?"

"I was originally planning to go back in a couple of days to let my father eat one of the exotic fruits, but now it seems I'll have to observe him for a while longer..."
