Chapter 231 Encountering the Enemy, Watching from the Sidelines
A perfect ambush was ruined by a bizarre mistake, which created a fatal flaw.
Thor isn't stupid.
Those three ridiculously off-target "demon-binding arrows" had already made him sense danger.
"It's a trap!"
Without the slightest hesitation, his advancing figure suddenly halted, and lightning flashed on the warhammer in his hand!
"All personnel, defend!"
Almost simultaneously with the issuance of the order.
Onizuka Ryuichi has moved.
He couldn't wait any longer.
Having lost the initiative, if Thor were to regroup, this ambush would become a complete joke.
He jumped from the highest point of the ruins.
His entire being, suspended in mid-air, merged with the blood-red katana.
It transformed into a streak of crimson lightning that tore through the sky, slashing straight down!
"Draw Sword Slash - Demons and Gods Weep!"
The icy voice, as if from the deepest hell, echoed in everyone's ears.
That strike didn't produce a flash of light.
It's resentment.
It was murderous intent.
It is pure death, a condensation of countless lost souls!
Before the blade even arrived, a terrifying aura capable of freezing the soul had already enveloped the entire battlefield.
Thor's men were all deathly pale, feeling as if their bodies and even their souls were pinned to the spot by that blood-red blade of light, unable to move!
This is the true strength of the Japanese swordsman!
"Well done!"
However, faced with this earth-shattering strike, Thor's eyes showed no fear whatsoever; instead, they erupted with an even more ferocious fighting spirit!
He roared to the sky, and his tall body swelled up in an instant. The blue lightning tattoos on his bronze skin seemed to come alive, turning into wildly dancing lightning dragons!
"The body of Thor!"
The warhammer in his hand was enveloped in endless lightning, transforming into a dazzling sun!
Instead of dodging, he charged headlong into the crimson blade of light descending from the sky with an even more ruthless and unreasonable attitude!
"Smash it!"
boom--!!!!
The crimson blade light and the golden lightning collided violently in mid-air!
An indescribable roar, accompanied by an extremely blinding light, exploded!
A terrifying energy shockwave, like a Category 12 hurricane, instantly swept across the entire battlefield!
The surrounding ruins were as fragile as paper in the face of this force, and were instantly razed to the ground!
Zhao Hu, who was at the very front, was the first to be hit.
He felt as if an invisible wall made of pure energy had slammed into his shield.
"puff--!"
A mouthful of blood gushed uncontrollably from his mouth.
His body, weighing over 200 pounds, was flung high into the air like a tattered sack, arcing through the air before crashing heavily into the rubble more than ten meters away. His fate remains unknown.
In the center of the battlefield, a huge crater with a diameter of more than 20 meters was blasted out.
Smoke and dust filled the air.
After a long time, everything gradually calmed down.
The two ends of the giant pit.
Tohru and Ryuichi Onizuka faced each other from a distance.
Thor now had a deep, bone-revealing knife wound that stretched from his left shoulder to his right abdomen, and blood stained half of his body red.
But he still stood ramrod straight, and the fighting spirit in his deep blue eyes only intensified.
Onizuka Ryuichi, on the other hand, was kneeling on the ground, his katana stuck in the ground in front of him, supporting his swaying body.
His black samurai outfit was tattered and torn, and a trickle of blood slowly slid down from the corner of his mouth.
That fierce clash just now left both of them severely injured!
"You...are very strong."
Onizuka Ryuichi raised his head, and for the first time, a trace of human emotion appeared in his lifeless eyes.
That was the excitement of meeting a worthy opponent...
"You're not bad either."
Thor grinned, revealing a set of white teeth, his smile arrogant. "Too bad, today, you'll die here."
Just as the two were about to make their move again...
"Boss!"
"team leader!"
Almost simultaneously, the players from both sides rushed out from different directions, protecting their respective leaders behind them.
A duel between top experts instantly turned into a chaotic team battle.
Although Thor's team lost one man in the ambush, the remaining members were all battle-hardened elites.
Onizuka Ryuichi's team, due to the commander's mistake and the aftermath of the previous clash, was clearly in worse shape than their opponents.
But they remained fearless, like a pack of wolves driven to the brink of despair, launching their most ferocious counterattack.
In an instant, the entire battlefield was filled with the glint of swords, the roar of energy, and the deafening shouts of battle.
……
"Holy shit...cough cough..."
Zhao Hu struggled to crawl out from a pile of cement blocks.
He felt as if all his internal organs had shifted, and every part of his body ached.
That last blow almost killed him.
He shook his groggy head and looked at the battlefield in the distance, which had been completely turned into a meat grinder, still feeling lingering fear.
What the hell are these monsters?
Just then, a familiar voice softly rang in his ear.
"How are you feeling?"
Zhao Hu shuddered and turned around abruptly.
Chen Yifan had appeared silently behind him without him even noticing.
He was still wearing that clean casual outfit, without a speck of dust.
A playful smile graced the honest, unassuming face that bore his own features.
"You...when the hell did you get here?" Zhao Hu's voice was trembling.
"Just arrived." Chen Yifan pointed to the battlefield in the distance, feigning ignorance. "Over there... it's quite a fierce battle."
Looking at his indifferent expression, Zhao Hu felt a surge of anger rising to his head.
"You fucking have the nerve to say that!" he roared in a low voice. "You almost got me killed!"
"Don't say that, little brother," Chen Yifan patted his shoulder earnestly. "Look, if you hadn't been so brave just now, they wouldn't be fighting so fiercely now."
"Now that they're both fighting tooth and nail and both sides are badly injured, isn't this the perfect opportunity for us to... reap the benefits?"
Zhao Hu was speechless for a long time after being choked by his fallacies and heresies.
He now finally understood that this guy had never had good intentions from the very beginning.
He had everyone in his calculations.
"Then... what do we do now?" Zhao Hu had completely given up thinking. He just wanted to follow this devil and see what tricks he could pull.
"wait."
Chen Yifan's answer was just one word.
He pulled Zhao Hu along and hid in a more secluded shadow.
"Wait until they beat them even worse."
"When they are all exhausted."
"Then……"
A cold smile slowly curved the corners of Chen Yifan's lips.
"...Let's go help them, it's more dignified."
