Seeing that their attacks on land and in the air were all stopped, the Dense Fog finally made their ultimate move.
Boom, boom, boom…
Dense Fog creatures of all types started fusing into one another.
In a matter of seconds, they formed over a dozen Special creatures that faintly gave off Transcendent energy.
Hum!
Hundreds of yellow desert scorpions combined together, forming a giant scorpion that was over 6m tall and as big as a tank. Its long tail spun before it dug into the sand.
“Watch out! Back away!” one of the Tiger Leopard Cavalry commanders that were summoned earlier shouted.
Boom!
But he was a little too late.
The ground under the few dozens of Tiger Leopard Cavalry riders closer to the scorpion caved in, and they were immediately devoured by the quicksand.
And that wasn’t the only thing that was happening.
“Roarrrr!”
In the west, there were miniature Dense Fog creatures whose bodies were made entirely of sand and were able to change shape freely and loosely. They tumbled and merged together, forming a huge “eyeless face” nearly 20 meters high in the air.
The face then opened its mouth, and the air it blew out turned into a sandstorm aiming at the Tiger Leopard Cavalry.
The wind carried a sound as if ghosts were crying, making people dizzy.
Even with their heavy armor, the Tiger Leopard Cavalry broke rank because of the wind. They couldn’t see and began to fall off their horses.
In the south, thousands of meter-tall human-faced spiders formed an enormous spider king the size of a truck. It released a giant spider web that was nearly 100 square meters in size, and the Tiger Leopard Cavalry soldiers caught by it couldn’t break free no matter how hard they struggled.
Their faces turned blue and were obviously poisoned.
“Wenyuan, Gongming, and Lingming, where are you?”
Seeing this, Cao Cao narrowed his eyes. He had been supervising the battle from inside the military base when he called those names.
“We’re here!” three voices replied.
Immediately, three warriors all giving off Transcendent energy appeared. They rode a white horse, a red horse, and a black horse, and all held weapons.
“Kill the alien generals!”
“Yes!”
The three warriors rode out of the military base.
“Monsters! Die!”
The white horse ran to the south. The rider with a short beard wore a blue headscarf and grayish-white cape. He held a long saber in one hand, and the tip of the blade scraped the ground as he rode.
A blue light glowed on the blade, and the saber left a deep trench on the ground.
Splash!
The giant scorpion noticed the incoming warrior.
It turned in his direction, and the tail underground suddenly jerked.
Boom!
The ground under the white horse caved in.
However, the horse had already leaped up and jumped over the scorpion.
Pew!
At the same time, the saber that had been dragged along in the sand emerged.
The blue light had formed a semi-transparent blade that was several meters long.
Relying on the speed, the saber was able to immediately cut the scorpion in halves.
The man was Pang De, Lord Zhuang of the Wei Kingdom and General White Horse!
“I won’t allow it!”
The black horse rode to the north. The warrior wore black armor and had a square face and thick eyebrows.
After charging out of the military base at high speed, he immediately threw out his black war ax.
Hum!
The ax carried a strong gust of wind and spun fast in the air. It created a cyclone that covered an area of 15 square meters. Not only did it cut open the white spider web that had covered the Tiger Leopard Cavalry riders, but it also penetrated the giant spider’s stomach, destroying its trunk-sized body. Stinky green blood splashed everywhere.
Xu Huang, courtesy name Gongming, was one of the “Five Great Generals” of the Wei Kingdom.
The warrior riding the red horse wore purple armor and held a long halberd with a crescent short blade.
Hum!
As the horse charged forward, the short blade spun quickly.
A gust of wind that spun equally fast was created around him, picking up the sand nearby as the horse ran.
By the time he reached the battlefield, the wind had become a terrifying desert tornado. With the momentum, he threw the halberd at the giant face in the sky.
Roar!
The sandstorm coming out of the 20-meter eyeless face was destroyed by the tornado created by the halberd, which then stabbed into the mouth and tore off half of the face.
The ear-splitting scream immediately stopped.
The warrior riding the reddish-brown horse wore purple armor, and there were wing-shaped ornaments by the sides of his helmet. He had no beard, and there was a righteous look in his eyes.
It was none other than Zhang Liao, aka Zhang Wenyuan, the famous general of the Wei Kingdom.
As the top one of the Five Great Generals, just like Zhou Yu, he was one of the 64 generals worshiped in the Tang Martial Temple. The Transcendent hero was good enough to be evaluated at the Perfect or Legendary level.
“Wenyuan!”
On the north side of the battlefield,
Gao Shun noticed the warrior with the halberd, and the look on his face changed slightly.
As fellow generals working under Lü Bu, he and Zhang Liao weren’t exactly close, but they were still on friendly terms. In a sense, they sympathized with each other.
Since Zhang Liao had appeared in Cao Cao’s subconscious and followed his order, it meant that after Gao Shun’s death, Zhang Liao had surrendered to Cao Cao, just like Wei Xu and the others.
“Was he a traitor?”
For a moment, Gao Shun was a little angry.
“No, he wasn’t…”
But soon, he calmed himself.
Before Cao Cao killed Lü Bu, he had tried to recruit Gao Shun as well, but Gao Shun had chosen to die with Lü Bu to repay his favor.
Strictly speaking, Zhang Liao was never Lü Bu’s subordinate, and he had every reason to surrender to Cao Cao after Lü Bu’s death.
Cao Cao was a much better leader than Lü Bu.
Boom!
In that brief moment when Gao Shun was distracted, the enemy opposite the Rank-breaking Camp took the chance and started the attack. It was a nine-headed rattlesnake formed by hundreds of snake-like alien creatures. The snake wrapped itself around Gao Shun.
It was a very tough enemy.
Not only could each of its individual heads bite and attack, but its nine tails could also rattle violently, making the hearts of the people around it beating like drums.
Even the experienced Rank-breaking Camp was severely affected. The hearts of some soldiers burst, and they dropped to the ground.
Boom!
A great number of dwarves also formed a giant dwarf. It held a blunderbuss with shiny magical runes. When the gun was fired, steel balls covered with flames blasted dozens of Rank-breaking Camp soldiers to the ground.
“Die!”
The moment he was attacked, Gao Shun soon returned to himself.
He bellowed at the snake wrapped around him and emitted golden light from his body. The light then turned into nine golden replicas of himself, and in an instant, they severed the nine-headed snake. Gao Shun then broke free.
The offering used to summon Gao Shun was fused by a Dense Fog crystal dropped by a red dragon and a golden object that could replicate itself that was dropped by a yaksha.
Because of that, not only could Gao Shun enter the dream, but he had also gained the ability to produce these golden replicas.
However, Gao Shun was still only summoned by an Extraordinary Rank-9 Soul of Civilization, even with the offering, he could only form the 800 men of the Rank-breaking Camp in the dream battlefield and not warriors like Lü Bu.
Otherwise, the others might get to meet the top warrior of the Three Kingdoms era.
However, when Gao Shun severely injured the nine-headed snake, the giant dwarf fired his magical blunderbuss again and killed another dozen or so Rank-breaking Camp soldiers.
“Set up a battle formation!”
Luckily, both the Rank-breaking Camp and the Tiger Leopard Cavalry were elite special troops.
Things were indeed a little chaotic when they first saw the Quasi-Transcendent giant Dense Fog creatures, but soon, they calmed down under the instruction of the summoned Commander-level heroes and set their battle formations.
Semi-tangible tigers and leopards emerged above the Tiger Leopard Cavalry, and a bare-chested warrior with a saber and a shield appeared in front of the Rank-breaking Camp. Together, they fought the three Transcendent creatures and the giant dwarf.
The monsters bellowed.
However, the Dense Fog had destroyed over a dozen settlements.
Because of that, there were over ten Special-level Dense Fog creatures.
The three warriors, Gao Shun, and the two troops were only able to stop eight of them, and the rest had breached the defense line and charged at the military base.
