Chapter 513: Dian Wei vs Lu Bu
September 25, 2017
Upon receiving Lu Hai Kong's command, Dian Wei's eyes, as large as copper bells, lit up, and with a pair of iron lances in hand, he charged towards Lu Bu.
"A mere defeated subordinate dares to make a fuss in front of me!"
Seeing Dian Wei rushing towards him, Lu Bu's expression showed disdain, but his face carried a hint of seriousness. With a swing of his halberd, he too leaped off his mount and engaged Dian Wei in close combat.
As they clashed, the two men, in perfect harmony, jumped off their steeds and continued their battle on foot.
There was no other choice; with their formidable strength, a single exchange would likely obliterate their mounts. Thus, they had no option but to fight on foot.
The two had crossed paths before and were well-acquainted with each other's capabilities.
Even before the fight began, Dian Wei's Ghost God Unmatched and Lu Bu's War God Unmatched abilities were activated, and two terrifying auras soared into the sky as the two peerless warriors clashed.
At this moment, Lu Bu's strength was at 96, while Dian Wei's strength had reached an astonishing 95. The gap in their abilities was evident, and the moment they engaged, the scene was awe-inspiring. The sound of their weapons clashing alone could be heard from two to three miles away.
The battle between these two extraordinary warriors quickly attracted a large audience. Dong Zhuo and Ding Yuan, along with Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei, had somehow appeared on the city walls without anyone noticing.
Even the usually proud Guan Yu couldn't help but be slightly moved by the sight of Dian Wei and Lu Bu's clash, and he had to admit that both warriors were a notch above him in terms of strength.
However, Lu Hai Kong's attention wasn't solely focused on the fight between Lu Bu and Dian Wei. He was pondering a question: was Lu Bu's action his own decision, or was there a shadow of Dong Zhuo behind it?
"Dong Zhuo seems to have a deep connection with He Jin. Historically, Dong Zhuo entered the capital at He Jin's invitation. Could this action of Lu Bu's be a hint from Dong Zhuo? What is Dong Zhuo planning? Does he want to take advantage of the situation to eliminate me? That would be too flashy at the city gate. If not, what is he trying to achieve by allowing Lu Bu's behavior?"
Lu Hai Kong had become more accustomed to thinking. If it were a couple of years ago, he wouldn't have bothered with such thoughts and would have simply dealt with matters with his axe.
However, despite Lu Hai Kong's contemplation, his conclusion remained the same. No matter what Dong Zhuo's intentions were, they held no significance for Lu Hai Kong. Since Dong Zhuo had already made his move, Lu Hai Kong's response would be straightforward—a swing of his axe.
"Although I didn't plan to use it so soon, if he's truly seeking death, I can only grant his wish!" Lu Hai Kong caressed the additional necklace around his neck, his eyes turning cold. Then, he calmly watched the battle between Dian Wei and Lu Bu.
At this point, both Dian Wei and Lu Bu had unleashed their ultimate moves. The more they fought, the more intense it became, and their auras had reached their peaks.
Lu Hai Kong vaguely noticed ethereal shadows on both Dian Wei and Lu Bu. They were like phantoms, barely discernible.
What were these shadows? Lu Hai Kong had asked Dian Wei about them, but with Dian Wei's limited vocabulary, he couldn't describe them adequately. Moreover, the existence of these shadows was somewhat mystical, as if only those who had reached a certain level of strength could comprehend them.
Lu Hai Kong felt that neither Dian Wei nor Lu Bu had fully grasped their abilities. If they could control these shadows, their combat power would increase by several levels.
Additionally, as Lu Hai Kong's understanding of martial arts deepened, he constantly pondered a question: where did the strength value peak? Was it like other games, where it capped at 100?
Lu Hai Kong felt that there should be room for improvement. In theory, martial arts should allow for infinite growth, but perhaps this was just a misconception due to Lu Hai Kong not having reached his own peak yet.
On the battlefield, the fight between Dian Wei and Lu Bu intensified, and gradually, Dian Wei began to be suppressed by Lu Bu.
Despite Lu Bu's inferior strength compared to Dian Wei, he excelled in martial skills and the application of inner force, giving him an edge.
As Lu Hai Kong witnessed Dian Wei's suppression, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he contemplated using Overlord Unmatched to aid Dian Wei. However, at that moment, flames erupted from Dian Wei's eyes, which were as large as copper bells.
Immediately, Dian Wei's aura surged, a clear sign that he was about to break through.
Dian Wei's breakthrough at this time was not unusual, as his strength had already reached 95 a few months ago. Recently, Lu Hai Kong hadn't given him many tasks, allowing him to immerse himself in martial arts training. It was only natural for him to break through at this time.
Soon, as Dian Wei's aura peaked, Lu Hai Kong received a system message.
[Your historical general, Dian Wei, has achieved a breakthrough in strength, currently at 96.]
Along with this system notification, Dian Wei, fully healed after his breakthrough, unleashed a frenzied assault.
Thirteen consecutive strikes with his lance, and Lu Bu's expression changed drastically.
In the 16th year of the Jian'an era, there was no mistake in this version!
Although Zhao Yue'er's final strike didn't land during their previous battle, Lu Bu still suffered significant injuries. His wounds had not fully recovered, and his strength hadn't returned to its peak.
Now, after an intense battle with Dian Wei, Lu Bu's stamina was greatly depleted. Facing Dian Wei's sudden burst of power, Lu Bu couldn't hold his ground.
Thirteen consecutive strikes with the lance sent Lu Bu's halberd flying. If Lu Bu hadn't retreated in time, he might have been beheaded by Dian Wei's lance.
However, the fight wasn't over yet. Just as Dian Wei was about to finish off Lu Bu, a piercing sound tore through the air, and an arrow shot straight towards Dian Wei's eyes. Dian Wei swept his lances, deflecting the arrow, and in that brief moment, Lu Bu retrieved his halberd.
Lu Hai Kong's eyes flashed with cold intent as he raised his Moon Chasing Bow, firing an arrow.
Lu Bu's trusted general, Cao Xing, who had just fired the arrow, had no time to dodge and was struck in the shoulder, falling from his horse.
Seeing his beloved general struck down, Lu Bu's eyes turned red with rage, and he charged towards Lu Hai Kong. At that moment, a group of warriors emerged from the military camp!
Leading them was none other than Dong Zhuo, who had been observing from the city walls!
Upon seeing Dong Zhuo, Lu Hai Kong's eyes narrowed, and he was eager to see what tricks this Dong Pangzi had up his sleeve.
