Battle Royale of the Sinners

Chapter 318

Chapter 318 - Coalition Elites VS Eight Cloned Lu Bu

After killing the clone, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu rode forward to assist Zhao Yun in his fight .

*BOOM*

*BANG*

*CLANK*

Cao Cao's generals did not fare very well against the clones . After exchanging 50 blows, Xiahou Yuan and Cao Ren had a hard time trying to stay alive in the close combat .

On the other hand, Xu Zhu, Dian Wei, and Xiahou Dun were in a stalemate against their opponent . But deep down in their heart, they knew that it was a matter of time that their stamina would run out before the clones .

Only one Lu Bu, who was being ganged by Yu Jin, Yue Jin, and Cao Hong, was being pushed back .

"VOIYA!"

Xiahou Dun attempted to finish the fight by attacking the horse instead of the rider .

"Humph!"

*CLANK*

*SUEK*

Number Three parried the strike and countered with a thrust, killing Xiahou Dun's warhorse instead .

The horse collapsed with the rider, dragging Xiahou Dun on the ground .

"Oh shit …"

The clone rushed at Xiahou Dun, planning to behead him while he was down .

*ROAR*

A giant 3-meter-tall white polar bear manifested from thin air in front of Number Three . It weaved the claw at the rider .

"What the!?"

*SWUA*

The claws slashed through the iron armor like butter, which cut through the flesh of Number Three . Guts, ribcage bones, and his innards fell out from the deep wound as he fell from his horse, losing his strength and dying .

Xiahou Dun laughed . He knew that it was Pu Jing's skill .

"Thanks, Putin . Wait, where is he?"

He could only see the bear, but Xiahou Dun could not find Pu Jing anywhere .

The polar bear rushed to the others to ease the tension . However, the clones were not vegetables for Cao Cao's generals to harvest . Number One and Number Two broke away from the fight with Xiahou Yuan and Cao Ren and teamed up against the monstrous bear .

"You dare to show your back in front of me!?"

Xiahou Yuan switched his weapon from a halberd to a longbow . His drew an arc and fired an arrow at the back of the leaving clone .

*PU*

Number One was hit at the back of his neck as he was caught off guard, falling to the ground .

*ROAR*

Pu Jing's bear cleaved Number Two as he did to the other .

Three clones had been killed in succession, which turned the tide of the entire group battle .

That was what Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, and Cao Ren thought .

*PU*

An arrow made its way and pierced through the forehead of the polar bear . The sudden arrow was so strong to the point that half of the shaft dug into the skull .

The bear disintegrated into dust, which alarmed the men . Looking at the source of the arrow, it was Khan .

With a grin on his face, Khan took three more arrows from the quiver behind his back . Then, he aimed at the three .

"I remember . You're that general of Cao Cao's archer battalion . Well, you're not the only one that is good with bows . "

In Khan's previous life, he was not only good at duel and horseback combat as he was also a grandmaster at archery .

During the time when Liu Bei and Yuan Shu were at odds against each other, Lu Bu pacified them by a bet of his archery skill, which he succeeded hitting a polearm blade with his arrow in one try, forcing both forces into a truce .

Now, Khan was warming up and trying to clean the rusty parts of his old skills .

*SWOOSH*

Three arrows came after the men .

"Nnh!"

"Shit!"

"Bastard!"

*CLANK*

*CLANK*

*SUEK*

Xiahou Dun and Cao Ren managed to deflect the arrow with their weapon . However, Xiahou Yuan failed to dodge and got hit by his shoulder . Because of the impact, he fell off his horse .

Xiahou Dun got in front of his brother to protect him from any further sniping attempt from Khan .

"Coward! Come and fight here like a man!"

"AHAHAHAHA! Well, you're the one to talk . I thought we have a one-on-one fair duel . Why did you send so many fighters onto the battle? Now, look at the mess . I don't know who is who anymore . "

…

"Ugh! You weakling cowards!"

One of the clones cursed at his three opponents who had attacked him from all sides before he died from the critical wounds .

Cao Hong, Yu Jin, and Yue Jin managed to subdue one of the clones with difficulty . Their proud armors were no more as they were cut and slashed by the clone to the point that it turned into broken pieces of rags .

Wounds and blood covered the three's body, and their breathing was fast and rough . Had they not worked together, all of them would have been dead instead .

"What a monster . "

"Fwoo, let's go save the others . "

"Can you still fight in that state?"

"To be honest, I can't . But our brothers will die if we don't help them!"

"Right . Let's go!"

Although their arms and legs trembled to the point that they had no confidence of fighting another bout, they still rushed toward Xu Zhu and Dian Wei who had yet to finish their duel .

…

Xu Zhu and Dian Wei could not overpower their opponents even though they were proud of their strength . Instead of oppressing the two Lu Bus, they were getting tired from the heavy exchanges .

Two clones and both Cao Cao's bodyguards stood on the ground as they had killed the warhorses of the opponents in this short fight .

Xu Zhu held his iron mace while Dian Wei wielded dual-axe . The torsos of the men were like the others, tattered with cuts and wounds . Dian Wei's face had a slash cut across his face while the chubby Xu Zhu was sweating bullets .

The two clones, however, were still looking fresh as if they had finished warming up .

"Monsters . "

"T-They're stronger on foot . "

As they complained, the two clones disappeared and reappeared before them within a second .

*CLANK*

*CLANK*

They parried the surprise rush of the clones, but they lost the initiative . The two Lu Bu launched their barrage of endless strikes at each of them, trying to wither down their stamina .

It was the same endless polearm strikes skill of Lu Bu that Tong had faced when he dueled the God of War for real inside Jinyang government hall .

"Damn it!"

"I-I can't hold on!"

Dian Wei and Xu Zhu were panicked as they could not keep up with the increase of speed .

*ROAR*

A brown grizzly bear manifested behind the two Lu Bus, just like the polar bear .

As they sensed the danger, two clones turned around to attack the bear, swinging their halberd at the bear's chest .

*SOEK*

The strikes connected, but both halberds got stuck into the bear's flesh .

*ROAR*

The bear opened its mouth and bit one of the clone's neck . It lifted his body into the air and flung around like a ragged doll .

The other clone tried to pull his weapon out of the bear's body to save his colleague, but he could not pull the halberd off .

*WHOOSH*

*SWUA*

As the clone's attention was on the bear, Dian Wei crept behind his back and swung his axe at the back of the neck of Lu Bu's copy, beheading him in one strike .

On the bear's side, the clone in its mouth stopped moving as the bear's jaw destroyed the neck and the spines of the victim .

With their death, two copied of Lu Bu remained .

At this moment, the tattered trio who had defeated a clone got to Dian Wei's side .

"It seems our help is unnecessary . Haiz . "

They exhaled as if they had lost all of their strength . Unfortunately, their celebration came early .

"ALL OF YOU! WATCH OUT!!"

The shout of Xiahou Dun alarmed them . When they realized what was wrong, each of them had an arrow inside their body .

The grizzly bear disintegrated into dust like the polar bear as an arrow found its way into the skull . On the other hand, the generals were shot on the chest where their armor was destroyed .

Cao Hong, Yu Jin, Yue Jin, and Dian Wei staggered backward from the arrow force and collapsed on the ground . Xu Zhu was more fortunate as his fat as extra muscles on his chest defended against the arrow toward his lung and his heart . He could still stand .

…

Similar to the others, Taishi Ci, Zhao Yun, and Zhang Fei were not in good shape . They had made the same mistake as Xu Zhu and Dian Wei .

They killed the warhorses and forced them to fight on foot . The speed and power of two Lu Bu's copies were even stronger than what they had experienced on horseback .

"What kind of monsters are those men!?"

The young Taishi Ci's legs had already turned into jelly . He knelt down on one knee because of the exhaustion .

The immature Zhao Yun was also the same . He came here to rescue his acquaintance, Liu Bei and his brothers . Yet at this moment, he was rescued by the injured Zhang Fei and Guan Yu .

In front of them, Guan Yu glanced back and reminded the two youth .

"All of you, retreat! We're not their match . Save yourself and live to fight another day!"

The command of the calm Guan Yu got them back to their sense . They mustered their last bit of strength to stand and ran back to the army where everyone was watching .

The two clones did not chase . Instead, one of them put away their halberd and took out a longbow, which had been hanging behind his back .

He fired an arrow at Guan Yu, the rearguard of the group .

*CLANK*

Guan Yu parried it with the glaive blade .

The other clone also took out a longbow and fired at Guan Yu as well . Two of them were shooting at the same time .

*CLANK*

*CLANK*

*CLANK*

As if they were torturing Guan Yu, they did not stop shooting, but they focused the target to him alone .

Calm like still water, Guan Yu slowly walked backward while parrying all incoming arrows without panicking . His eyes glared toward the hands of the two clones in a trance as he predicted the trajectory of all arrows .

*CLANK*

*CLANK*

*CLANK*

Zhao Yun, Taishi Ci, and Zhang Fei got out of the battle, and Guan Yu outlasted the endless barrages by stepping outside of their arrow range .

The four sighed a relief . They made it back in one piece .

From the onlooker side, Liu Bei rushed toward them with his guards to bring them to the infirmary . He looked around in nervousness .

"Where is little Jiang!?"

"What? He's not with you!?"

"No! I'm the only one who came back!"

All of them looked back at the battlefield, but they could not find Jiang Man anywhere .

"Over there?"

Upon carefully searching, they found a lone horseman riding away from four transparent specters . It was Jiang Man who was fleeing from the souls of Khan .

Chasing after Jiang Man and the four souls, another rider galloped his horse to their direction with two fluttering light wings behind his back .
