Chapter 1319: Daughter of Moonlight
Chapter 1319: Daughter of Moonlight
December 21, 2017
On the city walls of Luoyang in the Three Kingdoms world, Gao Lan's military aura had just formed when it was shattered by Zhang Huan's Warhammer Formation.
The backlash from the aura caused Gao Lan to spit out a mouthful of blood, and his entire body became extremely listless.
At this moment, even Xi Zhizhai, who was in the Northern Defense Tower, was dumbfounded. However, outside Luoyang City, a cold smile curved Zhang Huan's lips.
"Using me as a pawn to pressure him into breaking through? It's a good idea, but I am not your pawn. Using me will come at a cost!"
In fact, while Xi Zhizhai was waiting for Gao Lan's breakthrough, Zhang Huan was also waiting for this moment.
As one of the top commanders of the Great Qin Empire, Zhang Huan had fought countless battles in foreign lands over the years. This guy was not only terrifying in his command ability but also in his personal strength. What was most frightening was his wealth of battle experience.
Compared to this veteran of the battlefield, even Xi Zhizhai and his companions might pale in comparison.
Perhaps Xi Zhizhai and his group had superior strategies, but what did that matter? When it came to war and the clash of military auras, Zhang Huan understood far more than Xi Zhizhai and his companions.
In fact, Xi Zhizhai and his team had anticipated that Zhang Huan might make a move at that moment, and they had prepared a backup plan.
However, they had only guessed the beginning, not the end. Zhang Huan's military aura was far more terrifying than he had shown, and his control over it was even more skilled. Xi Zhizhai's backup plan never had a chance to be implemented because Zhang Huan had already dealt with Gao Lan.
This time, Xi Zhizhai and his team's failure was not due to insufficient preparation but because their overly clever schemes had backfired.
Utilizing his understanding of military auras and his own formidable aura, Zhang Huan had swiftly defeated Gao Lan.
With both commanders captured, the Luoyang side was now completely leaderless. Even with their previous command, Zhang Huan had given them a hard time. Without leadership, the mere Luoyang City was no match for Zhang Huan.
"It's time to end this boring campaign and offer this city to His Majesty!"
His words were filled with unparalleled arrogance and absolute confidence.
A terrifying aura surged, and above Zhang Huan's army, the warhammer that embodied the military aura rose once more.
Although the warhammer had been somewhat depleted when it crushed Gao Lan's newly formed aura, it seemed ready for a few more strikes.
This was truly terrifying. The previous strike from Zhang Huan's warhammer had not only crushed Gao Lan's military might but had also claimed the lives of at least ten thousand soldiers.
If such a terrifying military might were to strike again, not only would the soldiers' lives be at stake, but even the city walls might crumble. In that instant, even the steadfast soldiers of the First Army Corps experienced a moment of wavering.
"Boom!"
The terrifying warhammer descended once more, but this time, the aura did not land on the city walls. As it fell, a giant tortoise shell shadow appeared in the sky, blocking the hammer's blow.
That tortoise shell was the defensive skill of Lu Hai Kong's Divine Beast Automaton Mimic, modeled after the Black Tortoise Divine Beast. With this defense, Luoyang City successfully withstood the attack.
However, the Divine Beast Automaton was a low-level construct, and blocking that strike was already a remarkable feat. The automaton itself disintegrated under the hammer's blow, but Zhang Huan's warhammer remained intact, seemingly without much depletion.
"You have quite a few trump cards, but bringing them out now feels too late, doesn't it?"
Zhang Huan chuckled coldly, then waved his hand. The warhammer above his army once again descended upon Luoyang City!
The terrifying warhammer struck again, and the Black Tortoise Divine Beast, which had been shattered by the previous blow, was not there to resist this time. However, Luoyang City's trump cards were not limited to just one divine beast.
As Xi Zhizhai gently stroked the Gugu in his arms, a pet he had raised for several years but who still looked no bigger than before, he spoke, "Gao Lan's miscalculation is unfortunate. We intended to use this opportunity for his breakthrough, but we underestimated the enemy's strength, putting us in an awkward situation. However, capturing Luoyang City won't be that easy!"
Just as Xi Zhizhai spoke, Gugu's eyes spun playfully, and she adorably waved her tiny fist, indicating her eagerness to fight the enemy.
"Not yet, little one. Someone has already taken action!" Xi Zhizhai said, and at that moment, two figures leaped from the walls of Luoyang City, rushing towards the military aura of the War Hammer.
"Hmm, two fierce warriors with over 100 Strength? This is unexpected. I didn't realize they had such powerful individuals, but do they think two warriors with over 100 Strength can stop my military aura? That's..." Zhang Huan's words trailed off as he witnessed something astonishing.
As the two figures pounced, an ancient and mystical chant echoed. The exhausted soldiers on the walls of Luoyang City, who had been fighting for days, suddenly regained their strength. More importantly, the two leaping figures were enveloped in a moonlight-colored glow during the chant.
Watching the two figures charge towards his military aura with the moonlight's radiance, Zhang Huan was momentarily stunned, and a flash of crimson light appeared in his eyes. He immediately retracted the War Hammer's military aura.
The experienced Zhang Huan knew that if he hadn't retracted his aura at that moment, he might have shared Gao Lan's fate.
It was clear that what had forced Zhang Huan to retreat wasn't the leaping Huang Zhong and Dian Wei but the moonlight that enveloped them. This moonlight was the handiwork of Nanan from the Lu Hai Kong family.
Almost everyone knew that the Lu Hai Kong family had two precious daughters who hadn't grown much in the past few years—Nanan and Nounou.
These two girls were known for their playful and mischievous nature, but few were aware of their ferocity. Nounou, in particular, was like a human-shaped Tyrannosaurus Rex, and it was fortunate that the system had sealed her powers. With her mischievous personality and terrifying strength, even Lu Hai Kong himself might have struggled to handle her.
In contrast, Nanan was relatively well-behaved. Aside from enjoying mischief with Nounou, she was generally a good girl, greeting people with a shy and adorable smile. Few knew that she was the City Guardian Beast, a highly mysterious one at that!
After several years of cultivation by Lu Hai Kong, Nanan had reached an incredibly high level.
