Chapter 1104: The Slaughter
Chapter 1104: The Slaughter
September 28, 2017
In Youzhou, atop Lingzhi City.
Above the blood-red clouds, the three men beside Qin Shubao felt incredibly relieved.
These three individuals shared the same excitement as Hou Junji and the others when they first arrived in this world.
Regarding the natives of this world, they held little regard, despite their awareness of its historical grandeur and the abundance of heroes in the Three Kingdoms era. They even believed that the might of this world's generals and strategists could surpass that of the Sui-Tang era.
However, they felt no apprehension whatsoever, as they were not merely from the Sui-Tang world.
The struggles they had endured far exceeded the imagination of the natives of this Three Kingdoms world.
After countless bloody battles and encounters with unbelievably powerful enemies, they not only lacked the caution and respect they should have had for this world, but instead, they felt a surge of arrogance.
In their eyes, the current Three Kingdoms era was not worthy of challenging them. Even figures like Cao Cao and Liu Bei, considered formidable in this world, were nothing special to them. Not to mention their opponent, Lu Hai Kong, was just a foreign lord.
From the beginning, when they learned of Du Rouhui's plan to employ various schemes, these three men scoffed in disdain. If not for Pei Yuanying's restraining presence, they would have protested much earlier.
Despite Pei Yuanying's efforts to keep them in check, they had no choice but to watch the unfolding farce, feeling discontent. They eagerly awaited an opportunity to unleash their power, which finally arrived after Pei Yuanying's outburst.
"Go, my brothers! What's so great about a mere foreign lord? Crush them, show Lu Hai Kong, and those fools, what true strength is!"
Each of them, shrouded in the blood fog, wore a confident smile, as if Lu Hai Kong was a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
In contrast, Qin Shubao was not as optimistic. Initially, when he first arrived in this world, his mindset was similar to the other men, but after experiencing two failures, he had adjusted his attitude.
Qin Shubao even felt a sense of tension when facing Lu Hai Kong, despite the seemingly advantageous situation. He couldn't shake the worry that Lu Hai Kong might have more tricks up her sleeve.
This concern caused Qin Shubao to lag a few steps behind the other three men. His hesitation was noticeable, and being so close to them, it was impossible to conceal.
However, upon seeing Qin Shubao's hesitation, the three men merely smirked, assuming he was intimidated by Lu Hai Kong.
Just as they smirked, their expressions changed simultaneously. In that instant, a concentrated, aura-like force appeared above their heads.
These men were well-traveled and experienced, and they instantly recognized the nature of this phenomenon.
"This is military might! They have a top-tier Command!"
Their faces paled, and their initial charge towards Lu Hai Kong halted. They desperately wanted to retreat, as they were all too aware of the terror a top-tier Command could bring. But by the time they realized this, it was already too late.
Before they could even begin to retreat, a terrifying aura erupted from Lu Hai Kong, accompanied by a mysterious and domineering force—none other than Lu Hai Kong's General Trait, Peerless Overlord!
Lu Hai Kong had not used this General Trait in a long time. Even when he did, it was primarily employed when ganging up on enemy generals, as it significantly enhanced his own combat strength while diminishing that of his opponents, making it incredibly effective in such situations.
However, Lu Hai Kong's General Trait was not meant to be used solely for this purpose. In fact, it had far greater potential.
His General Trait was a growth-oriented one. When Lu Hai Kong first activated Peerless Overlord, he could only maintain it for three minutes. Now, as long as he had sufficient internal energy, he could sustain it for as long as he wished. Moreover, he felt that his General Trait had reached a point where it was ready to be further enhanced.
However, in Lu Hai Kong's opinion, the most crucial aspect of his General Talent at this moment was not the amplification or reduction of combat strength, but rather, he discovered that his General Talent had gained an unknown ability to suppress magic.
At some point, whenever Lu Hai Kong unleashed his General Talent, within its range, no one could use their items or General Talents without his consent.
Lu Hai Kong unleashed his talent for this very reason!
As Lu Hai Kong's Unmatched Tyrant surged forth, the three individuals who had been leading the charge had yet to recover from the effects of Zhang Man Cheng's Command Talent. They were immediately subjected to another overwhelming pressure.
More importantly, under Lu Hai Kong's General Talent, the backup plans of these three individuals were rendered useless.
Regardless of the items they carried or any hidden General Talents they possessed, they were unable to utilize them, leaving them completely defenseless against Zhang Man Cheng's Command Talent.
A loud crackle reverberated!
The three thunderous sounds that had once echoed beneath the Tiger Pass reappeared, striking the three figures shrouded in the Blood Fog without any resistance.
At this moment, Lingzhi City had its original garrison of over 20,000 troops, along with Zhang Yan's 150,000 elite soldiers and several elite units that Lu Hai Kong had brought from his rear.
This formation was undoubtedly more formidable than the previous coalition army at Tiger Pass. The combined military might of these hundreds of thousands of troops was also formidable. The three individuals directly endured the three thunderous strikes and spat out mouthfuls of fresh blood.
Although they didn't die, they sustained severe injuries.
Lu Hai Kong was not one to let things go easily. He wasn't satisfied with just severely injuring these three individuals.
In the 6th month of the 19th year of the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, a book was published, and no one could find any errors in it!
After the three individuals were severely injured, several people by Lu Hai Kong's side immediately pounced. Yan Liang and Wen Chou combined their forces to attack the one on the left, the Third Princess charged towards the one in the middle, and Lu Hai Kong personally dealt with the one on the right.
This was a classic example of striking when the enemy was weak.
However, while Lu Hai Kong's side was ruthless, dealing deadly blows, Du Rouhui and his companions on the other side were not sitting idly by.
The two individuals stationed at the rear were prepared to support the front lines at any moment.
In this battle, not only was Lu Hai Kong cautious, but Du Rouhui's side was equally so. While Lu Hai Kong couldn't afford to lose, the same was true for them.
The foreign Demon Army had already fallen into a strategic dilemma. Unless they could defeat Lu Hai Kong, they would be pinned down in the three Liaodong Prefectures. Their rear had already exhausted its ability to mobilize additional forces. Under these circumstances, Du Rouhui would not easily allow his generals to perish in battle.
As Lu Hai Kong launched his assault, Du Rouhui's crimson eyes flashed with blood-red light. Instantly, three blood-red light curtains appeared around the three individuals facing Lu Hai Kong.
Lu Hai Kong recognized these light curtains; they were the same ones used by Hou Jun Ji and Qin Shu Bao before. He hadn't expected them to be effective under his General Talent as well.
Lu Hai Kong's eyebrows furrowed, but he quickly realized that the light curtains were also affected by his General Talent, appearing much fainter than before.
Upon seeing this, Lu Hai Kong reacted swiftly. He exchanged a glance with the Third Princess by his side, and the two immediately coordinated their actions.
The Third Princess abandoned her original target and joined Lu Hai Kong in attacking the individual on the right.
Their simultaneous strikes shattered the blood-red light curtain, and the individual within was instantly slain!
However, just as Lu Hai Kong and the Third Princess killed one of them, the remaining two were teleported away by Du Rouhui. Although both had escaped, the one on the right had been struck by the combined might of Yan Liang and Wen Chou. While he didn't die on the spot, his injuries had undoubtedly worsened, and he likely wouldn't be able to fight again for a while.
With all four of them attacking, Qin Shu Bao retreated, and of the three in front, one was injured, one severely wounded, and one was directly slain. This round of confrontation clearly favored Lu Hai Kong's side.
However, before Lu Hai Kong could rejoice, a change occurred in Pei Yuanying's battle...
