Chapter 562: The Mad Demon
2017-09-25
Speaking of which, Lu HaiKong had lost count of the number of battles he had fought in this world, but he had never suffered such a fatal injury before.
His throat was pierced by the spear in Zhang Liang's hand, and Lu HaiKong felt an indescribable pain.
Lu HaiKong could endure this kind of pain, but he could sense that his mind was incredibly exhausted. Vaguely, he felt as if his throat had become a black hole, sucking in his spiritual power.
Lu HaiKong had never experienced this feeling before, but he knew clearly that he was going to die!
"Lu HaiKong, I thought you were someone special, but you're a disappointment. Just a single spear ends it all. Killing you is no harder than killing a chicken. I really don't understand how a useless person like you managed to kill my brother!"
Zhang Liang spoke coldly, then waved his hand, pulling the spear out of Lu HaiKong's throat!
Perhaps it was because Lu HaiKong was highly skilled in Body Refinement Technique, or perhaps it was due to his high Strength Value of 86, but Lu HaiKong did not die immediately even with his throat pierced.
As Zhang Liang pulled out the spear, Lu HaiKong used the remaining shreds of his mental power to open the attribute panel and poured all his skill experience into Fundamental Axe Technique, instantly raising it from level 49 to level 50.
Fortunately, Lu HaiKong remembered that this system had a bug where raising the level of a basic skill could revive him with full health.
Zhang Liang didn't notice Lu HaiKong's actions. In fact, after piercing Lu HaiKong's throat, he no longer paid attention to him.
In his eyes, Lu HaiKong was as good as dead, and there was no need to watch him. Almost at the same moment that he pierced Lu HaiKong's throat, Dian Wei, who had been trailing behind Lu HaiKong, arrived at the scene.
This simple-minded big guy, upon seeing Zhang Liang in front of Lu HaiKong and the transparent blood hole on his neck, instantly turned red with rage!
In an instant, a terrifying aura akin to a ghostly god emerging from the abyss spread from Dian Wei's body, and outside his body, a black flame ignited!
Lu HaiKong's 'death' directly put Dian Wei into a special state where, despite not activating Peerless Ghost God, his combat power soared to a whole new level. In Dian Wei's eyes, there was no trace of rationality left, only endless madness and killing intent!
A cold light flashed in Zhang Liang's eyes, "Such intense killing intent, such formidable aura. I was wondering how that useless Lu HaiKong killed my brother, but it seems you did it!"
Dian Wei didn't say a word. He charged forward, swinging his iron halberd towards Zhang Liang's head.
At this moment, Dian Wei had lost all rationality, consumed by madness. In his eyes, there was only the desire to eliminate Zhang Liang.
Dian Wei, in his Mad Demon state, had a Strength Value that was significantly higher than usual, and his entire being resembled a crazed demon, fighting with unparalleled ferocity!
Even Lu Bu would have to retreat three steps upon encountering Dian Wei in this state. Unfortunately, the one he faced now was Zhang Liang, who had also unleashed his ultimate move!
After borrowing the strength of Guan Hai and Yan Liang, Dian Wei's Strength Value had reached 102, slightly surpassing his peak strength from before, but this difference represented a whole new level of combat power!
Although Dian Wei was indeed powerful at this moment, he still fell short when compared to Zhang Liang. It wasn't just a small gap; it was like the difference between heaven and earth.
Dian Wei, on his own, was essentially toyed with by Zhang Liang, who effortlessly countered all of Dian Wei's frenzied attacks and sent him flying with casual strikes as if he were a mere ball.
Interestingly, Dian Wei's defense was incredibly terrifying. Despite Zhang Liang's sharp and formidable spear, it struggled to penetrate even ten centimeters into Dian Wei's muscles.
However, within just a dozen or so exchanges, Dian Wei's body was already covered in bloodstains.
The awe-inspiring battle between the two quickly attracted the attention of Lu HaiKong's generals, who witnessed the fight between Dian Wei and Zhang Liang, as well as Lu HaiKong lying on the ground covered in blood. Without hesitation, Wen Chou and Gao Lan rushed in with their weapons drawn.
Wen Chou and Gao Lan, with strength values of 90 and 89 respectively, were both considered top-tier warriors. But upon joining the battle, they instantly realized how insignificant they were, like mere children in comparison.
If it weren't for Dian Wei's relentless offense against Zhang Liang, the two would have been dispatched with a single move the moment they entered the fight.
Even these two found it challenging, and Zhao Er and Cheng Lian, who arrived later, couldn't even intervene.
The two rushed to check on Lu HaiKong as they saw him lying on the ground.
Coincidentally, Zhao Er and Cheng Lian arrived just in time to witness Lu HaiKong's full recovery and the blood hole in his throat healing at an astonishing speed visible to the naked eye. Witnessing this, the two exchanged glances, shocked and simultaneously overjoyed.
They had arrived later, so they initially didn't know what had transpired.
When these two guys saw the blood hole on Lu HaiKong's neck, they almost burst into tears. But they never expected the surprise that followed shortly after.
This rollercoaster-like experience was overwhelming for their little hearts, but they quickly reacted, carefully protecting Lu HaiKong. They were determined not to let him suffer any further harm at this moment.
On the other side, after Zhang Liang's disappearance, Lu Bu and his group were left puzzled. Soon, they sensed Zhang Liang's aura appearing elsewhere, and moments later, the sounds of intense fighting reached them again.
Without hesitation, Lu Bu charged forward on Qing Zhi, with Guan Yu following closely behind.
They were well aware of the terrifying strength of Zhang Liang, who had no friends on this battlefield.
With such formidable power and his unpredictable movements, if they couldn't defeat him, he could appear behind Dong Zhuo or even Liu Bei at any moment and slay them.
This situation was something Lu Bu and Guan Yu were determined to prevent.
It's important to note that Dong Zhuo, at this point, was not the same as the one in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. His heroic spirit and righteousness had deeply influenced Lu Bu.
Lu Bu held genuine respect for Dong Zhuo and was determined not to let him die at Zhang Liang's hands. Instead, he was resolved to bring Zhang Liang's head to Dong Zhuo!
