《World of Experts 》Chapter 145: Counter Arrow
Advertisement
That arrow flew straight towards Zuo Tiancheng, descended from heaven like a thunderbolt. If you don’t look carefully, then you would only treat it like a thunderbolt, mistakenly believing that this was heaven’s punishment. Especially in the mist, it was even more unpredictable.
However, it didn’t go as Passionate Archer had expected. That big fellow beside Zuo Tiancheng had a sharp instinct like a beast. He noticed that terrifying arrow in time.
That big fellow yelled: “Pay attention to the sky!” He kindly warned Zuo Tiancheng because he feared that Zuo Tiancheng would die here and his money-making skim would go down the drain.
And Zuo Tiancheng was Zuo Tiancheng. Although he didn’t immediately notice the danger and almost got killed, he reacted quickly upon hearing the warning of the big fellow. He immediately activated his Invincible Golden Blade skill, avoiding that deadly arrow.
Zuo Tiancheng naturally recognized this arrow. So far, only Passionate Archer could shoot such a strange and powerful arrow! It seemed that the support of Twin Dragons Village had arrived. It was something he could already predict.
The corners of Passionate Archer’s mouth twitched, and looking at that outstanding big fellow, he thought: “I was too impatient. I didn’t notice that that fellow was stronger than Zuo Tiancheng!” After his first attack failed, it was useless to attack again. However, Passionate Archer also didn’t panic. He was in the sky and the other party was on the ground, what was there to be afraid of?
Passionate Archer was at ease and didn’t retreat. Instead, on the top of the war dragon, he sneered: “Zuo Tiancheng, this time, you would have lost. If it weren’t for someone else’s help, you would have already died.”
Zuo Tiancheng refuted: “If it weren’t for this mist’s help, how could you have such a good chance?”
Zuo Tiancheng was right. Both of them were helped. In the end, victory or defeat couldn’t be determined. But at this moment, Zuo Tiancheng had no way to deal with Passionate Archer. He could only guard against Passionate Archer’s sneak attack.

However, Zuo Tiancheng suddenly noticed that the big fellow beside him was acting strange!
“This…, is he going to…” Zuo Tiancheng looked at the big fellow in disbelief as that big fellow snatched his subordinate’s bow, drew it to make a full moon and released an arrow. Zuo Tiancheng was surprised! This arrow couldn’t be measured by common sense. According to common sense, it was absolutely impossible to soot at such a distance from below.
However, the arrow shot by that big fellow brushed past Passionate Archer’s head.
At that moment, Passionate Archer’s exclamation resounded throughout the mountain covered in mist. There was a bloodstain on Passionate Archer’s forehead. He had suffered a superficial injury and his Shadow Dragon Soul Shield had lost more than half durability. In fact, if that arrow had not missed Passionate Archer and he didn’t have Shadow Dragon Soul Shield, then he might have truly died under the power of this arrow!
Looking carefully, the defense of Passionate Archer was terribly low. His defense was just 70.2 points. It would be lucky if he didn’t die!
“Retreat!” Passionate Archer hastily left with his troops. That big fellow was too terrifying! The other party was actually able to shoot at him from such a long distance, moreover, through the mist! If he didn’t retreat now, then that big fellow alone might wipe out the entire army.
Upon seeing those red dots in the sky disappearing without a trace, Zuo Tiancheng didn’t know how to express his admiration for the strength of this big fellow. With this kind of strength, he was good at both long-range and close combat. On the battlefield, he was worthy to be called a wargod, truly worthy of the saying, Among men, Lu Bu!
Lu Bu! Yes, this big fellow was Lu Bu. Lu Bu was the strongest general in the legend of Three Kingdoms. No one had ever doubted the fact that Lu Bu was the number one force of Three Kingdoms. Lu Bu’s shooting skills were also extraordinary. Back then, he shot halberd at the outer gate of barracks, scaring two armies. Who else could do this other than him?

In >, Lu Bu’s profession was a knight, SS grade historical NPC, and his skill was Among Men, Lu Bu.
[Skill Name: Among Men, Lu Bu]
[Skill Grade: historical NPC’s skill, no grade classification]
[Skill Type: Active, 15 MP]
[Weapon Restriction: all weapons]
[Current Rank and Mastery: Level 3, 410/2000]
[Skill Effect: increase attack and defense by 60%, all enemies within the battlefield fall into a frightened state, weakening their attack by 15%, and substantially increase distance and accuracy when using a bow for 10 minutes]
One had to say that the damage output of Lu Bu’s arrow had already reached 164.8 points! Passionate Archer was truly lucky that he didn’t die.
Speaking about it, the loss was mitigated because of Shi Hao’s accumulated experiences, which upgraded him in all aspects. His Fire Dragon Armor and Black Robber Horse had already reached level 2, moreover, Shadow Dragon Soul skill and Soul of the Warrior skill had reached level 2 and level 3 respectively, and even Shi Hao himself had also reached level 16.
Therefore, Shi Hao’s Shadow Dragon Soul Shield’s durability had already reached 150.54 points, which saved Passionate Archer’s life.
On the other side, Shi Hao and others weren’t far away from Lu Bu and Zuo Tiancheng.
Taking a closer look, Pei Yuanqing’s skill and equipment were also upgraded. Even if he ran into Lu Bu and Lu Bu used that strange halberd to fight against him, he wouldn’t be afraid of Lu Bu’s attack without even Shi Hao’s two major buffs.
And Lu Bu’s 60% defense bonus along with the frightened effect for all enemies were ineffective against Pei Yuanqing (the weakening effect would be offset by Shi Hao’s buff of Soul of the Warrior. For instance: after Shi Hao’s +30% and Lu Bu’s -15% effect, Pei Yuanqing’s attack would still increase by 15%, reaching 80.5 points. And with the addition of critical-hit’s bonus, the damage output would double, reaching 161 points.). But Lu Bu should be afraid of Pei Yuanqing’s critical hit, after all, Lu Bu’s defense would just reach 139.2 points with the bonus.
However, Lu Bu could definitely use his speed advantage. As long as he didn’t face Pei Yuanqing head-on, there was no problem. Neither party could do anything to anyone.
Besides, there was Zuo Tiancheng. He wouldn’t just stay still without doing anything.
Although he truly couldn’t hurt Pei Yuanqing, his current attack power could still cause a bit of damage to Shi Hao. The damage might not be high, but as long as Lu Bu cooperated with Zuo Tiancheng and did his best to stall Pei Yuanqing and give Zuo Tiancheng enough time, Zuo Tiancheng would be able to defeat Shi Hao.
In short, as long as they cooperated properly, Zuo Tiancheng and Lu Bu could win against Shi Hao and Pei Yuanqing.
Merely, it’s a pity! The issue was cooperation…
“Humph!” Lu Bu threw the bow to one side. He couldn’t bear to look at this type of junk. “Since I saved your life once, the agreed price is increased by 30%. Furthermore, I just shot an arrow to scare away the opponent’s air force, it’s another increment of 30%. This money is for me alone. A total of extra 60% commission because of my extra effort!”
Lu Bu was indeed greedy. He won’t do anything unless the money was satisfactory. However, Zuo Tiancheng also couldn’t agree to 60% commission in one breath and give it to Lu Bu alone!
Therefore, Lu Bu slaked and proceeded lazily. Finally, they found the formation core in this chaotic state.
And the troops of Shi Hao and Pei Yuanqing were waiting at the formation core…
