Chapter 7: New Player Free Call Time Expired
All the sophisticated instruments around were running frantically, but to no avail!
This completely violates all known physical laws!
Meanwhile, in the study of the Qin Dynasty.
Zhang Fan felt a sudden weight in his empty hands!
A scroll of mulberry paper with an antique feel and a faint scent of ink actually appeared out of thin air in his palm!
"Your Majesty!" Zhang Fan exclaimed excitedly.
Ying Zheng's pupils suddenly contracted!
He stared intently at the scroll in Zhang Fan's hand, his eyes filled with unbelievable shock!
He snatched the alliance agreement from Zhang Fan's hand and eagerly unfolded it!
When his gaze fell upon the words on it.
His hand holding the covenant began to tremble slightly!
"This...this handwriting..."
It's exactly the same!
The handwriting was exactly the same as the memorial from Zhao Gao that he had just sent over!
Whether it's the strength of the brushstrokes or the habits of the turns, everything is exactly the same!
Even the color of the mulberry paper and the cinnabar were exactly the same as those from Qi!
Flawless!
This is even more authentic than if Zhao Gao wrote it himself!
With this irrefutable evidence, Zhao Gao is doomed!
Just as Zhang Fan was also excited about this incredible forgery technique.
He glanced at his phone screen instinctively.
however.
When he saw the battery level display on the screen, the joy on his face froze instantly, replaced by a deathly pale expression!
Current battery level: 50%
Holy crap!
Zhang Fan gasped in shock, cold sweat instantly pouring down his face!
What happened?
It was at 90% just now, and after receiving a letter of alliance, it dropped by 40%?!
He could no longer care about Ying Zheng's shock and hurriedly shouted into the phone:
"Sir! Sir, something terrible has happened! There's a problem!"
"My phone battery is down to 50%! The receiver is consuming too much power!"
The atmosphere inside the State Security Bureau instantly became tense.
"Record immediately! The 'Receive' function has consumed 40% of the battery!"
A research leader immediately rushed to Zhu Feng and reported to his supervisor at a rapid pace:
"Sir! The peak value of the particle fluctuations just now was several times that of when it was sent!"
Our initial conclusion is!
"The energy required to transport matter from the 21st century to the Qin Dynasty would be far greater than the energy required to transport it from the Qin Dynasty itself!"
Zhu Feng's expression turned extremely solemn.
Energy is currently the biggest Achilles' heel!
He immediately spoke into the microphone and gave an unquestionable order: "Comrade Zhang Fan, obey my orders!"
"Cainiao App is our core trump card!"
"Strictly control usage until the battery is fully charged!"
"None of us know if you'll be trapped there, or something even worse, once the battery runs out!"
"We'll try new methods once we find more ways to replenish energy!"
"Right now, stability is the priority!"
Hearing Zhu Feng's stern warning, Zhang Fan realized the seriousness of the problem.
He glanced at his phone, swallowed hard, and replied emphatically:
"Roger that, sir!"
Just then, the screen of Zhang Fan's phone suddenly went dark, followed by a system notification:
【Ding! 】
[New user free call time (2 hours) has been used up.]
Subsequent calls will consume battery power at a rate of 1% per minute.
Holy crap!
When Zhang Fan saw this message, he was so scared that his soul almost flew out of his body!
One minute with 1% battery remaining?
Isn't this just stealing electricity?!
He couldn't care less about anything else and immediately shouted into his phone:
"Sir! Something terrible has happened!"
"Your phone is notifying you that your free call time has ended! Making more calls will drain your battery; it will be completely dead in 40 minutes!"
Inside the National Security Bureau, Zhu Feng's expression changed drastically upon hearing these words.
Making a call also consumes energy!
And the consumption is so terrifying!
This undoubtedly adds another huge challenge to the "Yanhuang Project"!
"Understood!"
Zhu Feng acted decisively without any hesitation, "Comrade Zhang Fan! Listen carefully!"
"From now on, cut off all unnecessary calls! Saving battery power is the highest priority!"
"Use the alliance agreement we gave you to eliminate Zhao Gao first!"
"We will immediately begin researching new energy replenishment solutions!"
"Don't contact us until we obtain new energy sources!"
"Remember, protect yourself! Wait for your opportunity!"
"Received, sir!" Zhang Fan replied emphatically.
He took a deep breath and pressed the red hang-up button.
Inside the study, the voice that connected two eras finally disappeared completely.
Silence descended once more.
Seeing that it was getting late, Ying Zheng ordered the eunuch to take Zhang Fan away to rest.
He sat alone in the empty study.
Holding that flawless oath in his hand, he could not calm down for a long time.
The events of today were more bizarre than anything he had experienced in the past ten years.
A divine artifact from two thousand years ago, an unbelievable teleportation ability, and the prophecy of the "Sand Dune Coup" that could overthrow the Qin Dynasty...
Sudden.
His gaze fell on the exquisite wooden box beside the dragon table.
Inside was the "elixir of immortality" that the alchemists had recently offered.
A thought suddenly struck him, and he remembered the first reason given by later generations.
"A chronic, highly toxic substance..."
Ying Zheng's eyes became complicated, and a seed of doubt began to grow wildly in his heart.
What if... what if this elixir of immortality!
Is there really a problem?
He was silent for a moment, then said in a deep voice to the door, "Someone, go and catch a few rabbits."
The guards outside the door, though puzzled, did as instructed.
Before long, five tied-up rabbits were led into the study by the ears of the guards.
After the guards withdrew, Ying Zheng hesitated for a long time before getting up.
He was holding two pale red elixirs of immortality between his fingertips...
Much later.
A furious roar erupted from the study!
"Issue my decree! Arrest Xu Fu, and all the alchemists in the palace!"
"Throw him into the Imperial Censor's prison!!"
……
Meanwhile, Zhang Fan, who had been assigned to stay in a side hall, was anxiously looking around.
Suddenly, his phone vibrated violently in his pocket!
Zhang Fan quickly took out his phone, and saw a golden notification pop up on the screen:
【Ding! 】
[Key historical events have been altered: Xu Fu's scheme has been exposed, and the elixir of immortality deception has been revealed.]
[Reward: Battery +100%!]
Zhang Fan stared wide-eyed as the battery level in the upper right corner skyrocketed from 50%.
Finally, it stopped steadily at [150%]!
"We've struck it rich!"
Zhang Fan was so excited he almost jumped up, and immediately dialed Zhu Feng's number.
"Sir! Battery level! My battery has reached 100%!"
"Now it's 150%! The First Emperor believed us and arrested Xu Fu!"
On the other end of the phone, Zhu Feng's spirits lifted:
"Great! This proves we're on the right track!"
"History can be changed, and by changing history, we can obtain energy!"
He pondered for a moment, then decisively said, "Since that's the case, you are now in the palace, surrounded by dangers, and you must have the ability to protect yourself!"
"Zhang Fan, open the 'Cainiao' app and get ready to receive!"
"yes!"
Zhang Fan immediately opened the app and pressed the "Receive" button.
hum!
A flash of white light, and a black pistol appeared out of thin air in his hand.
It is the famous Desert Eagle!
however.
Before he could even get excited!
He was horrified to discover that his phone's battery level had plummeted from 150% to 50%!
"Sir! The gun arrived! But... but the battery is down to 100%!"
"This...this gun consumes more power than that covenant!"
Upon hearing Zhang Fan's complaints, all the experts within the National Security Bureau immediately began their analysis.
Soon, Zhu Feng's voice came:
"Zhang Fan, we have two possibilities in our analysis."
"First, the energy consumption increases with each teleportation."
"Secondly, the energy consumption for transporting items is related to their quality, complexity, and the technological sophistication involved!"
"The Desert Eagle's precision far exceeds that of a handwritten scroll, hence its enormous energy consumption!"
"To verify this, now use what you have on hand: find a small pebble and try 'sending' it over!"
"clear!"
Zhang Fan picked up a pebble the size of a fingernail from beside his feet, placed it on the ground, and clicked "send".
A flash of white light, and the phone's battery level dropped from 50% to 45%.
"Reporting, sir! Teleporting the pebbles only consumed 5% of the battery!"
"Understood!"
Zhu Feng's voice carried a hint of relief, "It seems the second guess was correct!"
"We've figured out a bit more about the teleportation rules!"
"Alright, Comrade Zhang Fan! To save battery, hang up the phone!"
