Chapter 63 Let go of that soldier
crack.
The iron sole of his boot scraped against the ground fiercely, and Lu Bu, who was holding a Fang Tian Hua Ji and was about to take Wang Yao's life, stopped in close proximity.
Wang Yao looked up at Lv Bu, who seemed to be frozen in time. Through his suddenly cold face, he could see confusion, anger, excitement, and a hint of...
fear.
Behind him, Zhao Yun, who was originally in an unknown state of life or death, was holding the stick of the Quick-Strike Spear. He stood expressionlessly in the distance, and his pair of blue eyes, as sharp as swords, looked over here.
Looking at Lu Bu's back.
Wang Yao looked at Zhao Yun, who was covered in blood. Although he looked a little embarrassed, it was not until this time that Wang Yao was shocked to find that Zhao Yun had no injuries at all!
The blood on Zhao Yun's body actually belonged to other soldiers.
This bastard, was he pretending to be dead just now? !
Wang Yao's mood at this moment was extremely complicated. He felt surprised, annoyed, and a little confused.
To Wang Yao's surprise, when he saw Zhao Yun holding the Speedy Strike Spear, the tip of the spear began to emit a bright golden light. The sharp aura was enough to prove that this man was indeed Zhao Yun. Since Zhao Yun was there, he would not have to worry about his life.
What was infuriating was that although Zhao Yun managed to withstand one of Lu Bu's ultimate attacks and survived, he shamelessly acted as a supporting actor and pretended to be dead, which almost got him killed by Lu Bu. At the same time, this was also what puzzled Wang Yao.
Why does Zhao Yun stand up now?
Just when Wang Yao was puzzled, Lu Bu in front of him had already left him and faced Zhao Yun.
Looking carefully at Zhao Yun dressed as a soldier, Lu Bu finally recognized him after a long while. A sneer flashed across his face, "I always thought you were dead."
"I always thought you were dead." Zhao Yun said lightly.
"Sky Soaring Dragon? Who would have thought that the top mercenary who dominated the world back then would actually become a soldier in Shu? What an unexpected encounter!"
"If possible, I don't want to see you again, the unparalleled demon."
"Ha! I'm actually very happy to see you again, because this time, I will defeat you completely with my own hands! But I'm a little curious, how did you completely eliminate your own aura? Before this, I couldn't even sense your presence at all."
"No comment, but in order to maintain my status as a soldier, this is necessary."
Wang Yao stared blankly at the two heroes who began their plot dialogue. In the blur, he seemed to see two overwhelming mists, one red and one blue, emerging from the two men. Then, a fierce collision created electric sparks all over the sky, making the air so oppressive that people had the illusion of suffocation.
Wang Yao endured the pain in his body and subconsciously began to move back. Even he could sense that there must be a deep hatred between the two. As the saying goes, when gods fight, mortals suffer. At this time, it would be better for him to stay away.
But before Wang Yao could move far, Lu Bu suddenly turned around, pointed his halberd at Wang Yao again, and said coldly: "Let me get rid of this stinky rat first, and then we can have a good chat. After all, we can't let these losers hear a lot of information about our heroes!"
Wang Yao felt a chill down his spine instantly. He could feel that he was "locked" by Lu Bu's skills.
But just as Lu Bu was about to swing his halberd——
"Let go of that soldier!" Zhao Yun shouted from a distance to stop Lu Bu.
"Hmm?" Lu Bu turned around and sneered with interest, "I just exchanged a few moves with this guy. I felt that he was quite special. I didn't expect that you would protect him. Who is he?"
"I don't know who he is. I only know that my superior requires me to protect him." Zhao Yun slowly raised the Quick Strike Spear in his hand and stared at Lu Bu coldly: "So, don't touch him."
Wang Yao stared at Zhao Yun in a daze.
Did Zhao Yun choose to stand up and protect him just because of what the captain said before he left? Thinking of this, Wang Yao couldn't help but be moved by Zhao Yun's spirit of "loyalty and dedication", and at the same time, he made up his mind.
This Zhao Yun must be conquered! !
"Heh." Lü Bu in front of him raised his Fang Tian Hua Ji disdainfully, "I, Lü Bu, never need to ask for other people's opinions when I want to kill someone."
"Hey!" Zhao Yun pointed the tip of the spear at Lu Bu with a cold look in his eyes.
"If you want to protect me, come and try!" After Lu Bu said this, he raised his Fang Tian Hua Ji and swung it towards Wang Yao.
Whoosh——boom——!
Amidst the lightning and flames, Zhao Yun suddenly turned into a blue lightning and leaped into the sky. Then, with a sharp sound of breaking through the air, he smashed down directly with thunder!
As soon as Zhao Yun made his move, he used his ultimate move [Soaring Dragon]——
The moment it landed, strong winds whistled and the earth cracked!
Zhao Yun's ultimate move has a knock-back effect. Although the spear tip was dodged by Lu Bu who was prepared, the powerful force caused the ground to shake violently at the moment the spear tip pierced the ground, and Lu Bu's attack was still successfully interrupted.
While Lu Bu was stumbling, Zhao Yun drew out his quick-strike spear, turned around smoothly, and swept towards Lu Bu with a violent sweep.
Bang! !
The air exploded, and amid the sound of metal clashing, Lu Bu's huge figure was swept away by Zhao Yun's spear!
Even so, Lu Bu still performed a flip in mid-air with a dexterity that was out of proportion to his body, and landed steadily on the ground far away.
"Tsk!" Lu Bu landed on the ground and looked at the blue electric wires raging around his body. His body was invaded by the needle-thin electric wires and he felt a slight tingling pain, which made him utter a sound of dissatisfaction.
Lu Bu hasn't experienced the pain caused by this unique attack method for a long time!
Zhao Yun's ultimate skill can mark the enemy as an electrocuted target. Although Zhao Yun's electric shock was blocked by Lu Bu's Fang Tian Hua Ji, the effective electric shock effect still caused a small amount of damage to Lu Bu.
All this took only three seconds!
Then, the space fell into an eerie silence.
Azure eyes.
Dark red eyes.
They started looking at each other coldly.
"Cough, cough. Pfft!" Wang Yao crawled up from the messy ground, coughing up the sand and dust that accidentally entered his mouth.
The exchange of skills between the two sides happened too suddenly. In the previous second, he was still terrified by Lu Bu's Fang Tian Hua Ji that was getting closer and closer. In the next second, he was already dizzy after Zhao Yun's ultimate move landed on the ground.
But looking at the cracks all over the ground, Wang Yao was shocked; how much strength does it take to leave such marks in a fight? This is a fantasy drama!
Meanwhile, Zhao Yun was confronting Lu Bu while looking at Wang Yao with disdain: "I believe you already know that I am actually a hero. If you have any questions, we can talk about them when we have a chance to go back alive. Now, I just want to ask you, why didn't you take the opportunity to escape after I threw you out just now? Who gave you the courage to challenge a hero!"
"Huh?" Wang Yao was confused by the question.
"In the Wei Kingdom, if we only talk about close combat ability, Lu Bu is definitely ranked first. The title of the peerless devil is not just for fun. Even for me, it is difficult to defeat him in a single fight!"
Zhao Yun said with a face full of resentment: "If you were smart enough just now, you should have taken advantage of the situation to hide in the bushes and escape when I threw you out. That way, we wouldn't have ended up in this situation!"
These words made Wang Yao feel a little ashamed.
Ultimately, it was his arrogance that caused this series of bad consequences.
After getting the violent T-shirt, he became a little too arrogant. Being a hero is a far cry from being a soldier, but he was so excited that he thought he had a chance of winning!
I guess Zhao Yun knew the situation was bad, so he pretended to be dead after throwing him out of Lu Bu's ultimate range? Unexpectedly, he was eventually "dragged down" by him.
"I'm sorry, I was too conceited and got you into trouble." Wang Yao sighed softly, but then his dark eyes showed a firm light.
"There is no other way now. The only way for the two of us to defeat Lu Bu is to work together!"
Zhao Yun was stunned and looked at the soldiers around him in surprise.
For Zhao Yun, it was the first time he encountered such a soldier; from his active performance in attacking the tower, to challenging the hero, and now, even in the face of an unfavorable situation, his strong will remained uncompromising, and he even threatened to defeat the hero. All these made Zhao Yun too surprised and amazing!
"I'm not suitable for close combat at the moment, so you will be the meat shield and I'll be in charge of the support. How about that?" Wang Yao took off the armor-piercing bow that was slung over his back and said to Zhao Yun with a smile.
"You are really a very special soldier." Zhao Yun looked at Wang Yao in disbelief as he was full of fighting spirit.
Wang Yao smiled: "Aren't you also very special?"
"Haha." For some reason, looking at Wang Yao's determined smile, Zhao Yun also became inexplicably excited. For some reason, he seemed to see the shadows of the 'two' people he once revered in Wang Yao.
Zhao Yun smiled faintly for the first time.
The "power" that had not been used for a long time began to flow in the body, and there was a tendency for it to explode.
"You better aim carefully later, or you won't shoot me into a hedgehog!"
With the tip of the spear pointing at the ground, Zhao Yun, carrying the Quick-Strike Spear on one hand, walked towards Lu Bu.
"Your spear skills are so bad, it's a waste for you to carry this spear with you. Just lend it to me first, and I will let you know what real spear skills are!"
The spear is still there.
Zhao Zilong, see you!
Thanks to Xu Yuye, Yiye Zhiqiu, Haifeng, and Zhou Xiaochuan (the names seem to be different, I use the names prompted in the background as the standard) for the rewards.
