Chapter 116


    Chapter 116 – Turning Point at Jinyang - Part 7


    The aura that Tong had tried to rouse before seeped out from his body . It was not as strong as the first time he used it against Lu Bu the other day, but Tong could sense it .


    Tong pointed the muzzles of his guns toward Lu Bu and fired both of them without caring if Lu Bu would die from the bullets .


    *BANG* *BANG*


    *BANG* *BANG*


    Three bullets were ricocheted by Lu Bu’s unique designed iron armor, but one bullet prated his left arm which was holding his halberd .


    The sudden pain made Lu Bu turned around and gazed at Tong, who was standing in front of the entrance door of the government hall building .


    The situation outside already subsided as all raiders were killed . However, the garrison troops dare not enter the hall because of the killing intent from Tong and Lu Bu .


    "That sorcery again... I hate that coward way of fighting . "


    "I also hate your fighting style . "


    *BANG* *BANG*


    *BANG* *BANG*


    Tong fired his pistols as he aimed at Lu Bu’s vital spots .


    On the other side, Lu Bu swung his halberd with his uninjured right arm and deflected the majority of bullets that came for him .


    *WHOOSH*


    One of the bullets grazed his neck . It cut his minor blood vessels, which leaked out red liquid from his neck .


    "No more ying catch! Now die!"


    Lu Bu kicked the ground and disappeared from Tong’s sight .


    Although Tong could not see Lu Bu’s movements, he sensed a signature of a living beinging at him from his left side .


    Tong leaped toward his right and turned left with both his guns pointing forward . He fired again without confirming the target .


    *BANG* *BANG*


    *BANG* *BANG*


    The bullets pierced Lu Bu’s chest armor and bit into his flesh . However, they were too shallow .


    The crescent halberd made a half-moon arc and shed passed Tong’s both extended arms that were holding the dual guns . Two arms were lopped off!


    More after images shed Tong’s legs and torso . Blood gushed out all over the ce .


    Tong did not panic this time . Instead, his killing intent continued to grow .


    Both of his lost arms regenerated . His injuries kept healing to counter the iing attacks non-stop . Tong pulled out his lucky charm from his inventory . It was the grenade that Tong kept it with himself for over a year .


    ’Thank you for staying with me for all these times . Goodbye . ’


    Tong pulled the pin and jumped at Lu Bu as if he was a suicide bomber .


    "If you die from this, you suck!"


    *BOOM*


    The grenade exploded at point nk . Fragments and shrapnel were pushed by the explosive forces and scattered in every direction .


    Lu Bu felt as if he was hit by a sledgehammer at his chest . Several pieces of shrapnel got through his iron armor and dug themselves into his flesh . His body was knocked back into the air .


    By instinct, Lu Bu regained his bnced in mid-air . His feet tapped on the ground lightly and staggered backward five steps . Then he came to a pause .


    His chest armor was charred ck and torn to shred . Blood dripped out from the numerous wound behind his wrecked armor . Both his arms were still intact, but small wounds could be seen everywhere . His tights and legs were in a better condition, but they were shaking as the force of the explosive shook his innards and nerve system .


    Meanwhile, the explosion sted away arge portion of Tong’s bowel and tore his left arm . Tong did not wait . He regenerated his lost flesh in an instant .


    ’I forgot . All suicidal actions can override my physical immune passive . ’


    Tong was immune to all physical attacks, but he could still be harmed if he intentionally hurt himself, such as jumping off a tall building or cut himself . Throwing a grenade at himself also bypassed his immunity skill .


    Because of the explosion, Tong had sparked another idea forbatting Lu Bu and future war .


    ’I should have done this earlier . I’m so stupid . ’


    Tong looked around the trace of the explosion . There were a small fire and smoke from the ground and the fragments of the grenade .


    His rifle was lost when he fell down into this building . One of his three pistols was broken . The other two were on the ground with Tong’s severed arms .


    Tong pointed his palm at Lu Bu who was struggling and dizzy from the sudden explosive noise and forces .


    "[Create Food]! Give me some vegetable oil! Limit the amount to 1 liter!"


    Slippery substance liquid appeared above the head of Lu Bu and rained down upon him . He was now soaked with oil!


    "Fengxian! If you don’t want to die, stop what you are doing! We can still be friends in the future . Don’t make me do this!"


    Tong threatened to kill Lu Bu even though he felt pity for him . He meant it when he said he did not want to do this .


    Meanwhile, Lu Bu stopped all of his movement . He stared forward while he concentrated to regain his hearing and his sight from the dizziness . He stood still for 3 minutes before he could hear and see everything again .


    Noticing that he was soaked with oil, Lu Bu nced around himself . Small traces of fire and smoke, caused by the grenade, were in between Tong and himself as if they were the line that he could not cross .


    "Sorcery again one after another, huh? You know what, Tong? I take back my words . I hate you now . You’re a coward like my master . "


    "If you hate your master that much, why are you following his order?"


    "I have to . But I don’t know why . "


    Tong sighed . He nced at the system menu option . The clock on the screen showed 9 . 10 AM .


    ’Five more minutes . ’


    A sword was summoned from Tong’s inventory . Tong red back at Lu Bu as if he got himself ready for another bout . Lu Bu also readied his stance and nned to make the next move .


    The crowd of garrison guards already entered the hall and surrounded the two . However, none of them dare to attack Lu Bu or Tong as their killing intent vortex was still present .


    Tong noticed this . He hesitated if he should use this chance to run away now or continue confronting with this God of War .


    ’If I run, everyone here will be killed . Lu Bu is a freak right now . ’


    Tong sighed . Trying to protect others was tiring and it limited his options . If he were to run away, he could easily buy over 5 minutes of time for Lu Bu to regain his sense at the cost of these people’s lives .


    ’I don’t want these people dead . ’


    ’Welp! I’ll just troll Lu Bu till he’s sober . ’


    ...


    Inside of Lu Bu’s mind, his thought was in a mess .


    ’He has good basic warfare tactics . I can’t cross those small fire line or I’m dead . ’


    ’But I can easily leap through those . He is still too na?ve . ’


    ’Sorry, Tong . You have to die . ’


    ’But why am I trying to kill him again?’


    As someone with a strong temperament and absurd mentality, Lu Bu had already sobered up from the hypnotized skill . He was in confusion about the reason behind his actions .


    ’This is stupid . There’s no reason to kill him to begin with!’


    ’He’s just pissing me off with those sorceries . You’re a man then fight like a man, Tong!’


    ’Argh! It’s that guy’s fault! He did something to me again!’


    ’Where’s that guy again? I have to kill him another thousand times!’


    Lu Bu disregarded about Tong and turned around . He tried to walk toward the exit of the main government hall .


    However . . .


    "[Create Food]! Give me water!"


    Like a firefighter who was handling a firehose with insane water pressure, clear water gushed out from Tong’s both palm and mmed into Lu Bu’s chest . The water pressure power made Lu Bu staggered backward .


    "Shit! Tong, stop! I-oof!"


    Before Lu Bu could finish his sentences, the water line hit his face and got into his mouth . Lu Bu was stunned by the impact of the water pressure .


    Tong checked the surrounding . All the traces of fire and smoke were gone by the water . He began his next move .


    "Don’t use the gen-Z words, Fengxian! Again, [Create Food]! Flood the floor with oil!"


    A wave of oil flooded the government hall . The floor suddenly became slippery, and the surrounding soldiers lost their bnce . They stumbled and copsed on the ground, which destroyed their formation like falling dominos .


    Lu Bu, who was stunned by the water jet, managed to regain his sight . However, he lost his footing because of the oil and slipped . He fell down on his knee .


    "Tong! Stop using those sorceries! I’m-!"


    "Yeet, [Create Food]! Water!"


    Another water jet hit Lu Bu’s face before he could talk again . He lost his bnce and fell onto his back .


    Lu Bu attempted to get up, but he found out that he could not get any traction from the ground . The floor was too slippery, and he could not even nt his foot on the ground .


    "Tong, Stop!"


    "[Create Food]! Water!"


    "Ugh! Sto-!"


    "[Create Food]! Oil and water!"


    "Idiot! I-"


    "[Create Food]! Water!"


    ...


    ...


    9 . 25 AM .


    Tong was into the spell casting that he forgot the time . He went over the estimated time for 10 minutes . He managed to control himself after he heard the galloping sounds of horses from the outside .


    Zhang Liao regained his consciousness 15 minutes ago when Tong flooded the main hall with water and oil . He rejoined the garrison force to organize the surrounding forces .


    Li Feihong had been carried away from the main hall 10 minutes ago . He was being treated by government physicians .


    Gao Shun and his small team of cavalries arrived at the main hall . He was shocked by the sight of the flooded building and the corpses in front of it .


    He rushed toward the main hall in a panic, then he found Zhang Liao .


    "Wenyuan, what has happened!?" Gao Shun asked .


    Zhang Liao gave Gao Shun a bitter smile and pointed at the carnage scenes in front of them .


    "The rumor about Zhang Tong being an immortal... was real . "


    "What!?"


    They had heard about the rumor of the Anping Battle before . They said that Tong could recover himself or was able to use sorceries and strange thunder magic .


    Tong demonstrated all of them to Zhang Liao unknowingly during the fight against Lu Bu before Zhang Liao decided to help him stop his boss .


    The aftermath of the battle between Tong and Lu Bu was the best proof for this .


    Gao Shun looked around . Lu Bu was still lying on the ground in exhaustion while Tong stood tall in a perfect condition . Gao Shun did not need someone to tell of the result of the fight .


    ’I saw Zhang Tong left the city gate myself . How did hee here before me?’


    Gao Shun was the only general in Ding Yuan army who did not know about Li Feihong’s abilities . As a result, he was baffled by many things that happened today .


    ...


    ...


    Lu Bu groaned and sat up . Tong finally stopped attacking him, so he could get a room for breathing .


    The tattered God of War red at Tong with blood-shot eyes . Then he screamed .


    "TONG! YOU STUPID PIECE OF @#$%##@#$!!"


    His words could not beprehended by ordinary humans anymore .
