Chapter 770: The unparalleled martial compet.i.tion (2)
Translator: 549690339
Two minutes ago …
After w.a.n.g Tanzhi finished watching the introductory cinematic and listening to the mission, he regained his mobility.
Coincidentally, his initial teleportation point was in front of a group of demon soldiers.
Originally … The group of demon soldiers had been resting under the lead of their commander [Jiao]. Unexpectedly … A white light suddenly appeared in front of the formation. A second later, a man dressed in a Renaissance a.s.sa.s.sin suit suddenly appeared in front of them.
Seeing this, the few Yao mo soldiers closest to Xiao Tan raised their Spears and surrounded him. They used a guarded tone to ask,””Who are you?”
!!
“Er …” Xiao Tan’s reaction was not slow either. Through the cinematic, he already knew about this group of fiends before him. (The size of the devil soldiers was similar to humans. Their skin was greenish-gray, and their hair was white. Most of them had yellow eyes, sharp ears, sharp teeth in their mouths, and sharp nails. They were the soldiers of the “Yuan Lu Zhi Jun.” Therefore, he thought for two seconds and replied,”I’m here to partic.i.p.ate in the martial arts compet.i.tion, but I’m lost. Do you know how to get to the demon City?”
“Ha? You? To partic.i.p.ate in the martial compet.i.tion?” The few Yao mo soldiers looked Xiao Tan up and down like they did not believe him.
“If you guys don’t know … You can get someone in charge to tell me.” Xiao Tan did not want to waste his time with the soldiers. As he spoke, he scanned the enemy formation and soon spotted someone who looked different from the average soldier.”Ah … That fatty over there is your commander, right? why don’t you help me inform …”
“What did you just say?”
Before Xiao Tan could finish, the ‘fatty’ that he was talking about turned around and revealed a fierce gaze. He yelled to interrupt him.
“Holy sh * t … He can hear me from so far away …” Xiao Tan mumbled.”And he seems to be angry … Did I say something wrong?”
This time … His reaction was a little slow. Of course, he wasn’t entirely to blame for this, because … Generally speaking, men didn’t react as strongly as women when they were called fatty … Most men didn’t mind this, and many people even felt that names like “fatty Zhang, fatty w.a.n.g, fatty little” were quite intimate.
However … Now that Xiao Tan had encountered this demon general, he was clearly one of the small group of people who minded being called ‘fatty’.
His name was [Jiao].
As a demon general, the flood Dragon’s appearance was naturally different from those soldiers …
His skin was light gray, and his eyes were gray and blue. His brow bone was protruding, and a pair of huge fangs protruded from his mouth.
He was wearing a strange mask. The shape of the mask … Looked like a pair of specially made leather underwear … The lower half of the mask covered his nose, mouth, and chin below his cheekbones. There were also two holes that allowed his fangs to pa.s.s through. The upper part of the mask was in the shape of an inverted triangle, covering the top of his head and extending to the back of his head.
Jiao wasn’t bald. On the back of his head, there was a braid that was as big as a scallion …
He was wearing a pair of black shoulder pads on his shoulders. The shoulder straps on both sides of the shoulder pads were crossed in front of his chest, connecting to a mound-shaped armor on his stomach.
By the way … From an objective point of view, he was indeed fat. Although his exposed pectoral muscles and biceps were well-developed, his short body, big belly, and p.o.o.p made him look like a demon version of a dwarf Tiger (the character in “legend of Water Bank”).
“You b.a.s.t.a.r.d … Do you know who I am?” When the flood Dragon saw that Xiao Tan had no intention of repenting, it roared again.”Do you not want to live anymore?”
“What have I done?” Xiao Tan narrowed his eyes, still confused.
“You still dare to play dumb?” The flood Dragon’s patience had reached its limit.”Watch me skin you alive!”
…………
Back to the present …
“This is so strange …” w.a.n.g Tanzhi ran like a madman across the wasteland.”Just because I called you fatty … Is it really necessary?”
“You actually said it again!” The flood Dragon was extremely sensitive to those two words and roared in anger,”little ones! Follow me! Tear him to pieces!”
“Yes!” The demon soldiers behind the flood Dragon received the order and immediately roared, their momentum rising.
Tsk … Looks like there’s no point in reasoning with them … Xiao Tan thought to himself, I think I should increase my speed. If I run seriously … They won’t be able to catch up to me …
Thinking of this, he exerted force on his feet and ran a little faster. In the blink of an eye, he had rushed into the Rocky hills in front of him.
“Hmm … This is a good chance …” Looking at the fl.u.s.tered Xiao Tan, Feng bujue was hesitant. He mumbled,”should I make a move?”
At this point, to avoid any misunderstanding, I have to explain … When brother Jue said ‘help’, he did not mean ‘help’ but ‘sneak attack’.
“Hmph …” After two seconds, Feng bujue seemed to have made up his mind. He snorted.”I’m being a little too soft … What’s there to hesitate about? I should have let him experience the cruelty of a team battle …”
His actions seemed a little heartless, but it was understandable.
In a real compet.i.tion, such “sneak attacks” were common. The opponent would not let you off just because you were being chased by a group of NPCs.
It was better to be taught a lesson by his own people than to be taught a lesson by an outsider during the compet.i.tion. Thinking about that, brother Jue made a decision … To launch a merciless surprise attack on Xiao Tan.
However … At this moment, a sudden change occurred.
“Yuan lü Zhi’s minions … Don’t be too arrogant!” A clear whistle broke through the sky and drew out a green and white figure.
That person … Had a silk ribbon tied around his head, and his long hair was fluttering in the wind. He was wearing a silver armor that reflected the sun, iron armor, and leather strips. Stepping on the flower folds, his steps were like stars.
“Zhao Zilong of Chang mountain is here!!” Zhao Yun entered the stage valiantly. The Dragon’s gallbladder (Zhao Yun’s weapon in the “unparalleled” series) in her hand shot out layers of spear shadows, blocking the demon soldiers ‘advance.
“F * ck …” Feng bujue already had the grenade in his hand, but when he saw general Zhao, he quickly put it back into the box.”Where did it come from?” He couldn’t help but look up at the sky and grumbled,”did someone put in a coin?”
On the other side, when Xiao Tan heard Zhao Yun’s voice, he immediately stopped and turned around.””Eh? Zhao Zilong?”
In the next few seconds, many images flashed through w.a.n.g Tanzhi’s mind. He remembered clearly that in the ‘unparalleled’ series, the combat power of an unparalleled general like Zhao Yun was worlds apart from the average general. Killing the minions was like cutting gra.s.s for him. A group of over 100 demon soldiers in front of them, coupled with a common-looking demon general like ‘Jiao’… Would not last more than a minute under Zhao Zilong’s hands.
“Oh? “I was wondering who it was …” The flood Dragon sneered after seeing who it was.”Hmph … The Azure Dragon that soars on the battlefield … Is it?”
His tone made Feng bujue, who was observing from the dark, feel something was off.
“What’s the situation? As an ordinary face … That’s quite an arrogant att.i.tude … Brother Jue thought to himself.
“Hehe … A defeated opponent still dares to appear in front of me?” What the Dragon said next shocked both brother Jue and Xiao Tan.
“A defeated opponent?” Xiao Tan was confused.”How is that possible …”
“Ah … I’m sorry, hero …” The next second, sister Yun turned around to answer Xiao Tan’s question.”My power is not enough … So far … I don’t think I can defeat the flood Dragon.” He said in a deep voice,”however, I’m confident that I can deal with it for a while …” As he spoke, he got into a fighting stance and was ready for battle.”You can go first!” I’ll block it here!”
“Worthede? F~ck?” Feng bujue could only use this swear word to express his shock (because he was talking to himself, the system did not block it).”As an unparalleled general, you actually admit that you can’t beat the public, and you even raised a death FLAG?”
As for Xiao Tan … As a person with a conscience, he could not leave.””Although I don’t know what’s going on either, but … General Zhao and I have never met before, but he risked his life to help me. How can I be afraid of death and just leave?”
“This righteous man, you’re being too serious.” Zhao Yun replied,”anyone who dares to stand up against Yuan lü Zhi is my companion. This is what I should do.”
“That’s enough … Are the two of you done with your nonsense?” The flood Dragon interrupted their conversation.”If you have anything to say, let’s talk on the road to the netherworld!” After saying that, he waved his arm and shouted,”boys! Go!”
Before he finished, the demon soldiers had already swarmed toward Xiao Tan and Zhao Yun.
The battle had already started, so there was no need to say anything more.
Perhaps it was battle instinct, or perhaps it was an a.s.sa.s.sin’s habit … At that moment, the first thing that came to Xiao Tan’s mind was to capture the leader before capturing the bandits. Therefore, he consciously moved closer to the flood Dragon’s position.
He opened his arms, and his fist blades and stiletto were ready. He used a [reverse blade spinning slash] to charge into the enemy formation, and used the momentum of the spin to attack the center of the mo soldiers.
He did not expect …
“Righteous man! Be careful!” Before Xiao Tan’s spinning slash could finish, Zhao Yun’s shout was heard.
Unfortunately, he was still too late.
Ping, ping, ping, ping …
With a series of hurried movements, Xiao Tan … Stopped.
At this moment, his face had already lost all color.
He blocked it … Xiao Tan thought. He blocked … All of them …
His shock was understandable. Who would have thought … That his high-speed continuous spinning slashes were all blocked by those soldiers, and not a single one of them hurt anyone.
“Don’t tell me …” Even Feng bujue, who was watching from afar, was shocked.”The combat power of these guys are all at the Asura difficulty level?”
Asura difficulty S in the “unparalleled” series … Was a s.a.d.i.s.tic difficulty that challenged the player’s extreme reaction, patience, endurance, and strategy. Under this difficulty level, the enemy’s attack, defense, health, block, attack, and other reactions will be strengthened to an outrageous level. Unparalleled generals who had not trained to the maximum level or were not equipped with powerful equipment would usually be killed by a wave of random blades (or random Spears or arrows) from the soldiers. A general with a common face could also use a set of moves to easily take a player’s life.
This is bad …”Looking at Xiao Tan, after that attack, he was surrounded. The enemies were all armed with long weapons, and Xiao Tan, who had stopped moving … Was full of openings.
“Kill him!” The demon soldiers naturally would not let go of this idiot who had walked into their trap. As they shouted, several of them had already thrust their Spears at him.
“Ha!” Zhao Yun roared like a tiger and spun around with the spear in her hand. She used her combat energy to open a path and moved to Xiao Tan’s side. The demonic soldiers were knocked back by the force, but … None of them died.
“Righteous man, don’t be impulsive!” Zhao Yun and Xiao Tan stood back to back. They gasped for breath as they said,”the enemy has more than a hundred people, and you … Don’t even have any solid armor on you, much less combat Qi. How can you kill your way in?”
“I’m sorry …” Xiao Tan meant what he said.”I’ve dragged you down, general Zhao …”
At this moment, his intestines were green with regret. He said gloomily in his heart,””If I knew this would happen … I would have listened to big brother Yun and run away … I’m just a burden! What were those soldiers up to? Everyone’s reaction speed is able to keep up with my spinning slash, and all of them have successfully blocked my attack … Are they crazy? Are you really just a bunch of soldiers?”
Thinking of this, Xiao Tan could not help but look at general Jiao, who was standing outside the crowd. He felt a chill run down his spine.”I seem to understand …… Why Zhao Yun would lose to such an ordinary face. In this universe … Yuan Lu Zhijun’s strength is all heaven-defying …”
“A righteous man.” Zhao Yun’s voice soon rang out again and interrupted Xiao Tan’s thoughts.”I have used up all my unparalleled power to kill my way to you. I’m afraid I won’t have the time to protect you anymore. You …”
“I’m fine. General Zhao, you don’t need to worry about me. ” As Xiao Tan said that, he activated the heaven Earth reversal spell.
In the blink of an eye, his figure had soared into the sky.
Since his ‘flying’ action came without warning, the surrounding demonic soldiers did not have time to react. When they wanted to move, Xiao Tan was already five to six meters above the ground. He could not stop them anymore.
“This way … He will be able to fight with all his might, right?” Xiao Tan, who was in mid-air, said to Zhao yunnian.
“You want to run? You b.a.s.t.a.r.d. ”
Just as Xiao Tan thought he could relax, the voice of the flood Dragon appeared behind him.
At that moment, w.a.n.g Tanzhi’s blood turned cold …
“This guy …” Xiao Tan’s body moved before he could think. When the feeling of ‘fear’ crossed his mind, his hand was already raised.[Blade of a.s.sa.s.sin] had been activated.
Bang Bang Bang
A m.u.f.fled sound of metal clas.h.i.+ng rang out.
Xiao Tan’s indestructible hidden blade barely blocked the sweep of the long spear in the flood Dragon’s hand.
However, even though he blocked it … Xiao Tan’s life Points still dropped by 9%. His arms were numb from the impact, and he was falling toward the ground.
He can actually jump to a height higher than me in an instant … As he was sent flying, Xiao Tan thought to himself, and in the air where there is nothing to leverage on, he can easily and quickly use such a powerful attack …
Several seconds later, w.a.n.g Tanzhi’s feet touched the ground again. Due to the effect of heaven and earth reversal, from Xiao Tan’s perspective, he was being ‘pushed’ upward. Therefore, when he neared the ground, his speed of retreat had slowed down considerably. Taking advantage of this opportunity, he cancelled the skill the moment he touched the ground, reversed the direction of the gravity, and stood still.
Other than that … Because the direction of the Jiao’s attack was not perpendicular to the ground, Xiao Tan’s downward trajectory was slightly off from his upward trajectory. When he returned to the ground, he was no longer in the middle of the demon soldiers and sister Yun’s battle.
“Oh? Not bad … You look like you’re at ease. ” Feng bujue, who was watching the battle from the side, thought to himself, using the enemy’s attack, I managed to escape with the least amount of damage.
He was a typical bystander who didn’t know the pain of an opera …
At that moment, Xiao Tan was thinking, what should I do … If it’s a one-on-one fight, I might have a chance of winning, but it will be a Pyrrhic victory … But if I run away, Zhao Yun will be in deep trouble. And if he dies … I’ll have to take a huge responsibility. ”
Just as w.a.n.g Tanzhi was struggling with his thoughts, another uninvited guest … Entered the battle.
“First, I hate that talented people have no ability; second, I hate that beautiful women have a poor life …”
The person had yet to arrive, but the poem t.i.tle had already arrived, and the ident.i.ty of the visitor was obvious.
“Third, hate the endless waves; fourth, hate the cold state of the world …”
When he read the fourth line, a figure had already rushed over like lightning.
“The fifth hatred moon platform is easily leaked; the sixth hatred orchid leaves are more burnt …”
– Chi Chi Chi-
The sword moved, and the sword Qi hummed.
The sound of the sword dance that was as fast as the wind followed the momentum and created waves of sorrowful cries.
“The seven hatred pufferfish is extremely poisonous; the eight hatred peanut thorns …”
“Who is it?” The flood Dragon roared in mid-air and descended to block the sword.
“Ninth hate the mosquitoes in the summer night; tenth hate the hidden venomous insects in the loquins …”
Ping, ping, ping, ping, ping …
Fast, it was fast!
The clash of the sword and the spear produced a series of clanging sounds. It was as fast as lightning and as dense as rain.
“Eleventh hatred is unrivaled; twelfth hatred is invincible!”
The poem’s name stopped, and the figure appeared.
The two fighting phantoms stopped, forming a confrontation.
On one side, it was a fatty. Yuan lü Zhi had a demon general under him with a single name “flood Dragon.”
On the other side was a swordsman in black. He was wearing a light purple shawl and had a sword rack on his back. His long hair fluttered in the wind, and he had sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes. His name was ‘sword monarch’s twelve loathing’, and he was a proud and unyielding lone swordsman in the lightning sword realm.
“This show is getting more and more interesting …” As a bystander, Feng bujue was very interested. He wished he could get some popcorn and sit down to watch the show.”I don’t believe … That a flood Dragon can defeat a master from the Thunderbolt world …” After saying that, his expression changed.”Eh? Wait … That’s not right! When the two of them exchanged blows just now, the flood Dragon was indeed not at a disadvantage …”
“Hmph … We’ve got a troublesome guy this time …” On the battlefield, the flood Dragon spoke again.”But … To defeat me …” His confidence made brother Jue, who was familiar with the world of peerless and Thunderbolt, speechless.”…It’s still a hundred years too early!”
