Pew! Pew! Pew!
On the battlefield, a dozen archers who were hit by the short spears collapsed and disappeared.
In the sky, the surging clouds and bolts of lightning were partly weakened too.
However, because the archers were in a battle formation and not crowded at the same place, it was impossible for Dian Wei to hit all the targets with his short spears.
The remaining archers, seeing that the heavy arrows didn’t work, decisively drew out their long spears and fought a melee battle against Dian Wei.
“Ha!”
Faced with the rows of spears that the dozens of Extraordinary Rank-5 archers stabbed at him, Dian Wei showed no intention of dodging.
Bam! Bam! Bam!
He waved the black halberd in his right hand, breaking a dozen spears with a terrifying force!
He then stepped forward and swung the halberd in his left hand as quickly as lightning from a lower height.
Clang, clang, clang...
Instantly, almost eight enemies had cracked armor, and their necks or chests were cut apart by the blade on the halberd, with blood gushing out!
“Huh, the city master was indeed right!”
“The South King of Yuan is indeed losing!”
“Indeed. This is Dian Wei. There’s no way that the South King can beat him.”
In the communication channel, several administration players agreed with Ji Ye’s judgment.
Because the enemies’ arrows would be shattered by Dian Wei’s brutal power, they had to give up their greatest advance and fight head-on.
However, they were also suppressed by Dian Wei’s brutality. Even though they were all seasoned warriors, they were still frightened and lost control over their spears!
It was safe to say that they were no threats to Dian Wei at all.
During the test for Li Chunfeng’s arrival, Ji Ye believed that it was a poor decision that the North King of Yuan split his power by creating a bunch of Water Demons.
The South King’s decision to create the archers seemed even poorer.
In the Battlefield of Providence earlier, when Ji Ye treated Huang Rong, he had sensed that the South King had a dominating True Qi.
The power of a dominating martial art couldn’t be fully carried out unless one had a dominating mind.
For the South King, dueling against Dian Wei with fear instead of summoning a bunch of archers to help him was his best shot of winning the battle.
“However, I don’t think the South King doesn’t know that.”
Ji Ye looked down at the thunderous battlefield on the altar.
Unlike the North King, who was infuriated when her Water Demons were killed, the South King had been calm all the time. He hadn’t even launched one attack yet. Instead, he closed his eyes as if he were waiting for something!
As for the archers, a dozen of them had lost their lives to Dian Wei’s iron halberds in a couple of seconds.
“Lock his weapons and arms!”
The twenty survivors, against Dian Wei’s dreadful aura that could shatter even the lifeless things, all risked their lives. Some of them seized the halberds that stabbed through them with bare hands, whereas the others imposed their bodies on Dian Wei to restrain him.
Boom! Boom!
When Dian Wei was pressed to the ground by a dozen enemies who were essentially wearing external skeletons, dark clouds surged on the sky of the battlefield where bolts of lightning were glittering, and a bolt of new lightning was about to strike.
Hum!
Exactly at this moment, the South King of Yuan suddenly opened his eyes and extended his hands to the sky.
Then, the lightning from the clouds turned into a purple lightning spear and smashed the restrained Dian Wei heavily!
“Ah!”
“Watch out!”
Some of the new players exclaimed in shock.
Even Dian Wei, whose expression remained unchanged when the enemies restrained him, became solemn for the first time.
“Ha!” he roared.
He raised his arms along with the enemies that were lying on him. Then, he crossed his halberds in the way of the falling lightning to block it.
The lightning descended from the sky with a length of almost three hundred meters.
Dian Wei looked insignificant by comparison even though he was two meters tall. He seemed to have overestimated himself for the confrontation.
Boom!
When the tip of the lightning hit the crossed halberds, a violent power of lightning burst out.
The players who were watching the game were all dazzled and too scared to watch it.
“The South King of Yuan...”
Ji Ye’s eyes were covered in a golden glimmer, and he remained unaffected.
At the center of the battlefield, Dian Wei’s hair and eyebrows all stood up, with silver power of lightning dashing among them. His red armor was quickly melted.
The enemies that were restraining him were simply blown up into pieces by the horrifying power of lightning!
Hum!
Even Dian Wei’s halberds were also reddened because of the lightning strike. The destructive power of the lightning even cracked the veins on Dian Wei’s arms.
As a result, he was soon drenched in blood.
“Ha!”
However, when he was covered in boiling water and blood, Dian Wei’s horrifying aura seemed to be stimulated.
It burst out ten times more powerfully than before. After an impasse of several seconds, the lightning began to collapse.
The South King of Yuan, who had been calm all the time, collapsed at the same time!
“So, the South King turns out to be a Perfect hero or even a Legendary one?”
Ji Ye’s expression changed.
From a comprehensive point of view, Dian Wei’s level couldn’t be higher than Zhao Yun, Zhou Yu, or Li Yuanba.
Those people had arrived in the Transcendent level and could become Legends. Dian Wei, on the other hand, was only one of the Transcendent Perfect heroes.
The South King of Yuan had clearly gone easy on his enemy, as the Yuan emperor did earlier.
He summoned fifty archers first, which used up a large part of the offering’s power. He then let the archers attack on their own and only condensed a lightning strike that wasn’t as powerful as it seemed in the end.
After the strike failed, he ran out of power and then disappeared.
Hum!
After the South King of Yuan’s body dispersed, the bolts of lightning on the battlefield began to gather.
They covered Dian Wei as a glittering piece of armor and then extended into a pair of thick halberds on his hands!
In the end, all the lightning disappeared.
Dian Wei’s face was fully revealed. He had thick eyebrows, big eyes, and broad cheeks. He looked really magnificent!
[Dian Wei]
[Level: Extraordinary Rank-9]
[Rarity: Commander]
[Description: A fearsome warrior at the end of the Eastern Dynasty with magnificent physical strength and great ambitions. Cao Cao praised him as Elai reborn!]
“Greetings, City Master!”
Dian Wei crossed his hands at Ji Ye, who had resumed his human look and descended from the sky.
He had dismissed the overflowing power of brutality in the battle, and he carried a tough yet reliable vibe!
“Now that you’re here, Chief Dian, we have another great warrior at Dragon City.
“Well, would you like to command the Beast Blood Battalion?”
Ji Ye nodded at Dian Wei with a smile.
After a hero successfully arrived, they would need EXP to improve themselves.
As for the generals, they could receive EXP and honor by training the soldiers apart from fighting.
Dian Wei, however, shook his head and said, “I’m not good at commanding or training soldiers.”
“I’d like to defend the central camp for you or lead the vanguard when we fight the aliens...”
Hearing what Dian Wei said, Ji Ye wasn’t angry but was instead quite happy.
Because the setting of the Han Dynasty was added to Dragon City. He had read Romance of the Three Kingdoms over the past days, and he knew that Dian Wei wasn’t a good commander, because same as Xu Chu, Dian Wei was Cao Cao’s bodyguard in history.
“In that case, I think Chief Dian can command the Iron Buddhas for now,” Ji Ye immediately said.
His face was slightly unnatural when he said that. Fortunately, his skin color covered it perfectly.
The Iron Buddhas were essentially his bodyguards in Dragon City.
It meant that Ji Ye had successfully turned one of the top three guardian-type heroes in history into the chief of his bodyguards.
After all, even though he was safe during the Fusions with the protection of the Transcendent golden chariot, he might still be disturbed. If the fusion was interrupted, his time and power of providence would be wasted.
With Dian Wei, the tough general from the Three Kingdoms, he would be much safer than before.
What was more important was the sense of achievement.
After all, Dian Wei used to be Cao Cao’s bodyguard. Anyone who was familiar with the Three Kingdoms would want him to serve themselves.
Ji Ye knew this feeling quite well.
Because he had seen too many celebrities, he was actually not too excited when faced with him.
However, exactly because there were many celebrities in Dragon City, he found that he was developing a certain hobby...
He seemed to be turning into a collector of famous heroes!
“He’s really Dian Wei!”
“He’s so terrifying! My heart skipped a beat when I saw him just now.”
“He’s Elai reborn! Of course he has to be ferocious!”
After confirming Dian Wei’s identity, some of the new players wiped their cold sweat excitedly, while some others looked unnatural.
Those who were qualified for this batch would all arrive at Dragon City. During their seven days of preparation, some had come to them to offer rewards for intelligence about Dragon City!
For various reasons, some of them accepted the requests.
After they did come to Dragon City, they found dangers everywhere. There were fully-armed footmen who were on patrol, terrifying beasts as big as mountains, and the wall around Dragon City that was fifty meters tall. All of them were horrifying...
Dian Wei, in particular, almost awed them to their knees with his ferocious vibe.
In fact, they had misunderstood their title.
Dian Wei was called Elai reborn not in a negative sense. It was just a praise with an ancient reference, like how Hua Rong was called Young Li Guang.
Elai was a tough general under King Zhou of Shang’s command and could fight bears and tigers. He was quite similar to Dian Wei in that way.
More importantly, even though “E1” was in his name, he remained loyal to King Zhou.
It was also why Cao Cao compared Dian Wei to Elai.
Most people knew that Dian Wei was known as Elai reborn and thought that he was mean and wicked. It was probably the reason for his ultra brutal aura on the Land of Inheritance!
