Chapter 244 The Soldier Comes Again

On the fourth day of the Wu-Shu War, smoke rose from the front line in the middle of the canyon battlefield.

The ground was charred black, as if it had been roasted by a raging fire. There were charred bodies of soldiers and molten, boiling rocks everywhere. The air was so hot that it was hard to breathe!
And in this harsh and hot hell, two figures, one in white and one in red, were in a stalemate in the distance.

Luna panted softly while inserting the rune sword next to her boots, barely supporting her weak body and not falling down.

She was in a mess.

Not only were his clothes and armor covered in burn marks, but even his fair skin, face, and thighs that were exposed to the air were covered in scratches and burns.

But the worst thing was that the bright red blood bar floating above her now showed that only a small amount of blood was left!

"Haha, I heard that Shu Kingdom recently changed a mid-lane mage. He was famous for defeating Zhen Ji and Lu Bu in the battle between Shu and Wei, but today it seems that he is just so-so!"

A low, teasing voice came from the mouth of a long-haired man in a red battle robe. He was the supreme commander leading the entire Wu army - the iron-blooded governor Zhou Yu!

Compared to Luna, Zhou Yu's condition at this time was much better. Although his battle robe was cut by the sword in many places and there was a sword mark on his face that was still bleeding, the blood bar above his head showed that he still had more than half of his health!
In this battle, it is easy to tell who is stronger and who is weaker.

Zhou Yu stared at the embarrassed Luna with full confidence, and laughed, "Little girl, with your current senior level, it is impossible for you to beat an elite mage like me. You are no match for me. You should go back and call Zhuge Liang!"

Luna pursed her lips tightly and remained silent in the face of Zhou Yu's sarcasm.

In fact, not only Luna, but even Zhuge Liang probably didn't expect that after the last battle between Wu and Shu, Zhou Yu had been quietly promoted to [Elite Mage]. Compared with Luna, the [Senior Mage], the current Zhou Yu is only a small level apart, but their comprehensive attributes are already a gap that Luna cannot cross!
Looking at the complacent Zhou Yu, Luna felt even more unwilling.

This was not because she could not defeat Zhou Yu. The girl had a gentle personality and had never been one to fight for power. What really made her unwilling was that she realized her own weakness and the huge shadow that could not be shaken off in the deepest part of her heart.
Whenever she thinks of that full moon night many years ago, with the corpses of her tribesmen scattered all over the ground and blood flowing like a river, as well as the armored figure that was as insurmountable as a mountain, the girl always feels unwilling to give up.

If this goes on, when will I be able to win over my brother?
Lost, uneasy, confused, and the grievance of being suppressed by the enemy and unable to do anything, made Luna's clear blue eyes slightly moist.

But even so——

click!
He suddenly pulled out the rune sword that was stuck in the ground, and the stubborn white halo appeared again on Luna's body.

She will not retreat, nor is she willing to!
“To defeat you, I don’t even need the military advisor to come in person!” With a low and delicate cry, Luna swung her sword back and used her skill 1 [Crescent Moon Slash] to chop at Zhou Yu.

The crescent-shaped white sword energy slashed towards Zhou Yu with terrifying momentum, and in this instant, Luna also directly activated her ultimate move [Crescent Assault] and followed closely behind the sword energy.

This is actually a very advanced skill, because once the sword energy successfully leaves a moonlight mark on Zhou Yu, Luna's subsequent ultimate move will also hit him. This will not only cause double damage to Zhou Yu, but also refresh the ultimate move in an instant, and take advantage of the momentum to launch an infinite combo under the moon!
The premise is that you must first leave a mark——

In fact, the crescent sword energy did successfully hit Zhou Yu.

Because Luna calculated the angle very accurately, she blocked Zhou Yu's movement space almost without any blind spots. Moreover, as a mage-type hero with low mobility, Zhou Yu could not avoid this sword energy from the beginning.

Or it should be said that Zhou Yu never thought of dodging at all!

With a dull thud, after taking a skill from Luna, Zhou Yu was ruthless and even quicker in his hands. He floated in the air with his arms open and used a [Strong East Wind] in his counterattack.

Boom!

A violent storm suddenly swept across the battlefield, like a giant beast, directly knocking Luna, who was attacking with her ultimate move, away!
Luna's ultimate move [Crescent Assault] was abruptly interrupted, but this was not the end——

Luna was blown away. As soon as she turned around and landed on the ground, a rain of flaming arrows suddenly fell from above her head!
2nd skill [Flowing Arrow]!
Looking at the rain of fire covering the sky, Luna's pretty face suddenly changed color.

Zhou Yu's two consecutive counterattacks took no more than 2 seconds, and his ability to respond is amazing, especially his skill 2, which is so accurate that he even calculated in advance where Luna would land after being blown away!
It should be said that although Zhou Yu was defeated by Zhuge Liang many times, it does not mean that he is weak. On the contrary, the fact that he could compete with that "peerless strategist" shows that he is actually extremely powerful!
In this short moment, because Luna was trapped in Zhou Yu's "wind zone", her movement speed dropped by 20%. Seeing that it was too late to avoid the rain of arrows, she could only grit her teeth, decisively inserted the rune sword upside down into the ground, and activated her second skill [Scorching Sword] on the spot.

The translucent white halo condensed into a shield, wrapping Luna tightly in it, but under the baptism of the amazingly powerful rain of arrows, it was quickly melted away like fine snow encountering a raging fire! Zhou Yu, who was one level higher than Luna, had already far exceeded the value of Luna's shield in terms of magic damage.

At the moment the shield disappeared——

Zhou Yu pointed his right palm at Luna, and suddenly sparks flew out. These sparks grew in the wind, and in just a moment, they turned into a blazing beacon all over the sky!
The ultimate move [Beacon Fire at Chibi]!
flame.

The raging red fire suddenly rose up like a sea wave, with a terrifying power that almost swallowed up the world. Amidst the loud bang, it directly submerged Luna's fragile figure.

The middle front line suddenly became a sea of ​​fire!

"Ouch!!" In the hellfire, Luna, who was blocking her body with her arms crossed, groaned in pain. The temperature of the flames was so high that she even briefly lost consciousness for 1 second. Finally, as if she could not bear the intense baptism of the flames, Luna fell directly out and rolled several times before stopping.

covered in wounds!

At this moment, the health bar floating above Luna is almost gone. As long as Zhou Yu uses his second skill again, it will be completely reduced to zero.

“Hmph, judging from his mobility, he is indeed a terrifying existence that may surpass Kong Ming. It’s a pity that he is still a little young.” With a cold smile, Zhou Yu raised his left hand, and a ball of flame slowly rose in his palm. The bright red flame illuminated his face, which was as hideous as a ghost face in the dark night.

Luna, who had lost her ability to fight, lay on the ground in the distance, closed her eyes resignedly, and gritted her teeth to prepare for the fatal blow.

This time, I am afraid I will fail to live up to the military advisor's expectations.
Luna couldn't help thinking so, but in her mind, someone's face suddenly appeared; if he knew that she was defeated in the middle lane, would he be very angry?

Hey, he should be very angry.
In the moment of life and death between lightning and fire——

From the bushes at the edge of the middle road, a figure surrounded by thunder suddenly jumped out!

"Zhao Zilong, I pay my respects!"

It all happened so fast that no one could have guessed it. Zhou Yu didn't even have time to react. As soon as he heard the roar, Zhao Yun's ultimate move [Soaring Dragon] pierced through his arm and flew into the air!
"Cough!" The violent impact force and unstoppable huge damage caused Zhou Yu in mid-air to cough up a large mouthful of blood, and his health bar suddenly dropped sharply!

what's the situation? !

When Zhou Yu landed, he was still dizzy and disoriented, and what greeted him were countless gunshots like a rainstorm!
2nd skill [Cloud-breaking Dragon]!
Ah da da da da da!!

What’s going on?!
In the awkward and futile resistance, Zhou Yu was completely stunned by the sudden and powerful attack.

What was the reason for this sudden attack? Where did this spearman come from? Most importantly, why was there a meaty smell on the spear of this soldier that was so inconsistent with the fierce attack? !

(((//Д//)))
Just as Zhou Yu was going crazy, he happened to see another soldier popping out from the bushes farther away. The soldier didn't even glance over here, and ran straight towards his original opponent, the Moonlight Girl.

Zhou Yu's pupils suddenly shrank into a point.

Although that face has changed a little, Zhou Yu will never forget it!
At this moment, he understood.

The insidious and cunning soldier who had humiliated him before is here! !

　Happy New Year to all my friends!

　　Thank you all for your care in 2018, and I would like to express my most sincere gratitude. I hope that in 2019, more people will like Xiaobing. I also hope that I can stick to my original intention and write another unique world of King.
