Call of the Heroes of Chaos in Another World

Chapter 2224 A Close Call: Fortune Appears, Giants Travel Thousands of Miles to Find Their Monarch
"Ding! Wang Buchao's Old Man skill activated."
"Old but vigorous" means that this skill is easier to activate the older you are. If you haven't awakened it by the age of 45, you will never awaken it. The effects of awakening the skill vary from person to person.

Effect 1: After this skill is activated, your attack power increases by 4.

Effect 2: When fighting an opponent, whether in a group battle or a one-on-one duel, the opponent's attack power decreases by 1 every ten rounds. This skill effect can be activated up to three times.

Effect three: The user of this skill can maintain peak basic combat strength until the last moment of their life.

While the number of people possessing advanced skills is not large, it is not small either.

However, Wang Buchao is definitely the most outrageous one at this stage.

Others' old and strong skills are just that their peak decline rate is slower compared to others.

However, Wang Buchao became someone who was able to maintain his peak condition until his death.

In other words, even if he lived to be over ninety years old, his martial arts level would not decline.

Wang Buchao has completely mastered external martial arts to the point where his internal martial arts are even stronger.

After all, in the novel, this person was a formidable figure who was over ninety years old and still managed to beat Luo Tong until he screamed in pain.

Of course, while the old man's skills can maintain his fighting ability, they still cannot solve the problem of physical strength.

"Ding! Wang Buchao's skill effect has been activated. Martial Power +4, base Martial Power 103, equipment +2, Martial King +3, current Martial Power increased to 112."

Wang Buchao mustered his spirits, and although he wanted to fight Xuanyuanba with all his might, the moment the two greatswords clashed, an incomparably domineering blood aura pressed down on him.

With the amplification of his immense power, Wang Buchao was severely injured by Xuan Yuanmei with just one strike.

Just as Xuanyuanba was about to deliver the killing blow, a flying spear suddenly shot towards him.

"Ding, Guo Zaihui's throwing gun skill..."

"General Wang, we've come to lend you a hand!" Guo Zaihui and Hong Feilong rode up to help.

"Ding! Hong Feilong's invincible skill activated."
Invincible: Fearless and invincible, the effect varies depending on the user.

Effect 1: In a one-on-one fight, attack power +3;

Effect 2: When facing multiple opponents, attack power +2; when facing multiple opponents, attack power +3; when facing one opponent, attack power +4.

Effect 3: In a one-on-one duel, reduce the opponent's strength by 1 to 3 points, depending on their strength level.

Effect 4: In group battles, it reduces the opponent's attack power by 1 to 4 points, depending on the number of opponents. The more opponents there are, the stronger the actual effect.

Hong Feilong's invincible skill effect activated: Strength +3, base Strength 101, Martial King +3, current Strength increased to 107.

"Ding! Guo Zaihui's Divine Shot skill activated."
Divine Spear is the top-tier skill for spear-wielding generals. It can be upgraded from the Spear Courage and Spear Might skills. The effect of activating the skill varies depending on the individual.

Effect 1: When fighting with firearms, if you are holding a powerful weapon, the weapon's enhancement effect will be doubled; if you are holding an ordinary weapon, you will still receive 1 point of attack power bonus.

Effect 2: When facing an enemy, your own attack power increases by 2. After that, your attack power increases by 1 for every five rounds of battle. This effect can be activated up to 5 times.

Effect 3: When fighting against spear-wielding generals, if their base strength is lower than yours, suppress their strength by 2 points.

Guo Zaihui's Divine Spear skill effects one and two activate, increasing his martial prowess by +1 and +2 respectively. His base martial prowess is 103, and his martial king status is increased by +3, raising his current martial prowess to 109.

Two men, armed with halberds and spears, rushed to rescue Wang Buchao without hesitation. However, before they could break through the soldiers and fight their way in, Chang Xian and Zhang Shier, two peak-level Heavenly Generals, had already surrounded them.

"You two, if you want to get through, you'll have to get past us first!"

Zhang Shier, the most senior of the local fierce generals of the Celestial Masters Sect, wielded the Mad Lion Blade with unparalleled ferocity. In his first encounter with Hong Feilong, he completely overwhelmed his opponent, leaving him with only the ability to defend and no chance to retaliate.

Xuanyuanba didn't seem to care too much about Hong Feilong and Guo Zaihui being stopped by Chang Xian and the other two.

After all, even if these two people really came to kill him, Xuanyuanba was still confident that he could kill them quickly.

"Old man, no one's coming to save you this time!"

As Xuanyuanba slashed with his greatsword, the grotesque blood aura emanating from the blade was so intense that it was almost blinding.

"Crack!"

As the blade was unleashed, Wang Buchao's broadsword was sent flying. The blade then cleaved through his shoulder, slashing diagonally down to his chest.

Wang Buchao, a veteran general in his sixties, thus fell on the battlefield.

"Uncle Chang, please help General Zhang, I'll kill this man!"

After killing Wang Buchao, Xuanyuanba did not linger and went straight for Guo Zaihui, who was locked in a fierce battle with Chang Xian.

Although Chang Xian is slightly stronger than Guo Zaihui, one is at the peak of the Heavenly Realm and the other has a basic martial prowess of 103 points. Even if Chang Xian is slightly inferior, it is not enough to make such a difference in such a short time.

In contrast, Zhang Shier and Hong Feilong were clearly superior from the start, and the outcome was only a matter of time.

Upon hearing Xuanyuanba's voice from behind, Guo Zaihui, who had been steadily fighting alongside Chang Xian, was thrown into disarray, and his marksmanship became erratic.

Seeing this, Chang Xian did not retreat immediately, but took the opportunity to strike again with his hammer.

The hammer struck Guo Zaihui's spear, causing his arms to tremble.

Just then, Xuanyuanba arrived and slashed directly at Guo Zaihui's back. The incredibly sharp blade sliced ​​through Guo Zaihui's back armor as easily as cutting tofu, and then pierced into his heart.

From then on, only Hong Feilong, the weakest among them, was left, completely unable to hold the line alone.

Even without Xuanyuanba's intervention, the combined strength of Zhang Shier and Chang Xian, two peak-level Heavenly Generals, was enough to overwhelm him. As Zhang Shier chopped off his left hand, Chang Xian's hammer struck his internal organs.

Upon receiving the message, Di Qing's face turned terrifyingly dark.

If things continue like this, they will never be able to muster enough troops.

In particular, the troops that were besieging the city were also in bad shape, and Xuanyuan Huang's remaining two thousand light cavalry were used there.

While their troops were besieging the city and unable to maintain their formation, two thousand light cavalry suddenly charged forward. At the same time, enemy troops inside the city also took the opportunity to attack, and with the help of both inside and outside, their besieging troops suffered heavy losses.

"Gather the cavalry first, and once a portion has gathered, withdraw them directly outside the camp. Do not engage them in direct combat!" Di Qing solemnly ordered Zhang Hao.

What Di Qing didn't know was that at this moment, Pei Yuanqing and his group, who were fighting against Xuan Yuanhuang, were also at a critical juncture.

With a spear and a sword, Xuanyuan Huang first wounded Wang Feng, and just as his spear was about to pierce Pei Yuanqing's chest, Cheng Yaojin appeared on the battlefield with a giant.

"Ding! Cheng Yaojin, the lucky general..."
