Chapter 897: The Four Heroes Battle Lu Bu (1)
Chapter 897: The Four Heroes Battle Lu Bu (1)
September 25, 2017
Outside the Grand Army Camp.
Lu Bu stood silently for a moment, gazing at the sprawling camp stretching for dozens of li before him. A battle intent flickered in his eyes as he surveyed his own formidable army.
"Finally, a chance for a real fight. I hope my opponents won't disappoint me."
As Lu Bu spoke, he turned his head to look at his own army—a sea of black. A complex expression crossed his face as he took in the sight of his cavalry, shrouded in a dark aura.
"Let's go. It's time for a battle!"
With these words, Lu Bu mounted his horse, Qing Chi, a steed once belonging to Dong Zhuo, and rode towards the enemy camp.
"Who dares to challenge me, the West Liang Lu Bu?"
Lu Bu's thunderous roar shook the entire camp, and as his voice echoed, his army of black demons charged into the heart of the Allied Forces' camp.
At this moment, the slaughter truly began!
Throughout various versions of the Three Kingdoms story, Lu Bu has always been an undisputed top-tier general.
However, in this world, Lu Bu's reputation wasn't as grand as in others. Due to Lu Hai Kong's existence, Lu Bu, who should have been undefeated in the Three Heroes Battle, had tasted numerous defeats.
From his first assault on Lu Hai Kong's base, where he barely escaped with his life, to his second defeat at Wu City, where Yue Er's absolute suppression left him powerless, and then his third defeat at the hands of Zhang Wei in the capital, Lu Bu's reputation had taken a hit.
Furthermore, his fourth defeat against Zhang Liang, and his final loss in the Zhang Jiao dungeon, where he repeatedly failed, had all contributed to Lu Bu's decline in prestige.
With each defeat, Lu Bu's fame diminished, but his strength continued to grow. At this point in the timeline, the 'Feudal Lords Against Dong' event was still some distance away, but Lu Bu's power had already reached its peak.
Additionally, due to Dong Zhuo's influence, Lu Bu's strength in martial arts was unparalleled, and he could be considered the strongest Lu Bu in terms of strength.
The army Lu Bu led at this time was composed of the finest cavalry from West Liang, along with a significant portion of his Fei Lang Cavalry, now infected by demonic energy, forming a terrifying cavalry force.
This cavalry not only possessed formidable strength but also had an even more terrifying characteristic. Those who died under their blades might transform into Black Demon Cavalry.
From a certain perspective, Lu Bu's cavalry was indeed the best in the world. This top-tier cavalry, with its unmatched strength and the dark aura they carried, struck fear into the hearts of the Allied Forces. No one could stand in their way, and their opponents were crushed like dry wood under the might of Lu Bu's army.
However, amidst this bloodbath, Lu Bu was not satisfied.
They were too weak. All his enemies were too weak, and the intense, blood-boiling battles he craved were nowhere to be found. Every opponent he faced was easily defeated, and none provided a real challenge.
With each strike he made, he cleared the battlefield, and whether he faced a single soldier or a group of them, none could withstand his might.
This overwhelming victory was indeed a unique experience, but it wasn't what Lu Bu truly desired.
Where were the powerful enemies, the terrifying opponents that should be in this Allied Forces? Where was the strong foe he yearned to clash with?
"Who dares to challenge me, Lu Bu?"
Another earth-shattering roar echoed, different from the previous one.
Lu Bu's earlier roar was filled with excitement, but this time, it was laced with frustration. He possessed overwhelming strength, but he longed for a worthy opponent to test his might against, and this frustration grew.
As Lu Bu struggled with his discontent, a letter arrived at the heart of the Allied Forces' camp. Yuan Shao, upon reading it, couldn't help but freeze with a smile on his face.
Not only did Yuan Shao's smile freeze, but all who heard Lu Bu's thunderous roar couldn't help but have their expressions change.
No one expected that at this moment, the God of Slaughter would ride over. Recalling Lu Bu's terrifying strike as he left, many of the feudal lords in the camp paled.
In this situation, the first to react were Liu Bei, Cao Cao, and Sun Jian. And the first to step forward was Liu Bei, as he currently held the highest prestige among them.
Chapter: The Battle of the Four Heroes
In the midst of the chaotic situation, the four heroes—Meng De, Wen Tai, Lu Bu, and Sun Jian—found themselves united against a common foe, the formidable Lu Bu.
"Let's join forces and slay this beast!" exclaimed Meng De and Sun Jian simultaneously, their eyes gleaming with determination.
At this sudden turn of events, they had no intention of uniting their powers with Lu Bu.
Joking aside, after such a long time without joining forces, it was unlikely that they could unite their powers just from an attack by Lu Bu.
In this situation, instead of considering uniting their powers, it was more practical to focus their combined might against Lu Bu.
After reaching an agreement, they signaled to their elite historical generals, and in an instant, several top-notch warriors charged into battle.
As they swung their weapons, unleashing their terrifying auras, a thundering roar echoed from Zhang Fei.
"You beast, Lu Bu! Wait for me, Zhang Fei, to take your head!"
Four familiar auras accompanied Zhang Fei's battle cry, and a faint smile finally appeared on Lu Bu's face.
"It's them, huh? Looks like we're in for a thrilling fight. I'll take on this battle-crazed Lu Bu and give him a taste of my might!"
---
As the four heroes charged forward, Lu Bu's hand wielded his halberd, aiming directly at Zhang Fei.
"You're not my match!" Lu Bu's lips curled into a cold smile as he charged forward, effortlessly deflecting Zhang Fei's attack with his halberd. At the same time, he casually parried the attacks from Guan Yu and Sun Jian with graceful movements.
"Don't hurt my brother!"
Before the halberd could land on Zhang Fei's chest, Guan Yu had already reached Lu Bu's side, his Green Dragon Crescent Blade spinning in the air as he slashed towards Lu Bu's neck.
Lu Bu, far from being startled, responded with a faint smile on his lips. With a swift movement of his halberd, he effortlessly deflected Guan Yu's attack and, in the same motion, casually parried the attacks from Xu Chu and Sun Jian.
After a round of attacks, the five warriors paused, glancing at each other, each hesitating to speak.
A slight smile, filled with battle intent, tugged at Lu Bu's lips, and his halberd rose, his battle-ready gaze sweeping across Guan Yu and the others.
"Come at me!"
With Lu Bu's rallying cry, the four heroes exchanged glances and charged towards him, weapons in hand.
It seemed the legendary battle of the Three Heroes against Lu Bu was not to be, but the question remained—could these Four Heroes defeat Lu Bu?
