【Beginning】
It was rare for Lü Bu to only focus on the battle in front of him while ignoring the overall situation. The Gods led a few troops of elites to directly confront Lü Bu. Facing a harmonious attack from the enemies, Lü Bu had to deal with the elites in front of him and be aware of attacks from behind at the same time.
The elites could not defeat Lü Bu, but they managed to halt him from escaping. It was the Gods’ plan to divert Lü Bu’s attention. When Lü Bu realized it, he was already surrounded by the God’s army. Even though Lü Bu was strong, he was just one man facing 30,000 God warriors...
- Lü Bu the Warlord: Darn, you think I’ll surrender? Hell no!
Without thinking much, Lü Bu directly dashed into the enemies. If he could manage to create an opening, he would be able to make his escape!
【End】
However, the Gods would not let Lü Bu get away. No matter which direction he tried to escape, the Gods would immediately arrange their troops to block his way in response.
- Lü Bu the Warlord: You troublesome bastards! Let’s see whether you can really stop me with this many people!
His name of “warlord” was not just for show. He swung his halberd swiftly and precisely. No one who stood within the halberd’s reach was able to leave without injuries — but only if Lü Bu still had the strength to do so. The Gods were a great force; they had the upper hand in attrition warfare. No matter how strong Lü Bu was, there would be a moment when his strength exhausted. All the Gods had to do was wait until that moment, and Lü Bu’s head would be on a silver platter.
The huge amount of enemies gave Lü Bu a tough battle. At that moment, what he wanted more than anything was power strong enough to fight his way out. Just then, Lingshuang appeared right next to him!
Before Lü Bu could speak, he could already sense Lingshuang’s volition. This feeling felt familiar to Lü Bu as if it was originally a part of him. Yes! That was his desire and will to fight! Their thoughts merged together; Lingshuang became a cloud of pneuma and flowed into Lü Bu’s body. When Lü Bu came to realize it, he felt that he had gained enormous power. With a single swing of his halberd, he knocked away a number of God soldiers.
- Lü Bu the Bedemoned General: Hahaha, bring it on!
Although Lü Bu couldn’t notice it, from the God's perspective they could clearly see that Lü Bu and Lingshuang fused into one and had become fiercer than ever. It was a massive loss for the Gods. In order to prevent the toll from increasing, they decided to retreat.
Lü Bu’s will should calm after seeing the God’s retreat, but it turned out differently; Lü Bu could not calm himself down. The desire and will to fight which had once been lifted from his body had now absorbed all kinds of thoughts on the battlefields and had grown before returning to Lü Bu.
The overwhelming obsession for battles urged him to continue fighting. At the time, Lü Bu was not able to manipulate the overly strong power. He could only let the desire control him...
