In the Three Kingdoms period, the opening scene features the killing of Huang Gai, shocking Zhou Yu!

"Someone save me—!!!"

Zhao Yu stood at the burning stern of the ship.

The system panel in front of me was flashing red rapidly.

"They're here, they're here."

[Command received]

[Posted by: Cao Cao (Chancellor of the Han Dynasty)]

[Permission Level: LV.99 (Current Map Ceiling).]

[Command: Help me.]

[Logical Conflict Resolution: Target Cao Cao (LV.99) > Zhou Yu (LV.85) > Huang Bing (LV.20).]

[Highest priority established.]

[Mission changed: Rescue Cao Cao and ensure his survival.]

Zhao Yu's smile widened.

coming.

Major clients.

"Zhao Yu! What are you laughing at?"

Beside him, Huang Bing was terrified.

The surrounding area was engulfed in flames, and the ship's planks were beginning to collapse.

"Jump in now! If you don't, you'll be burned to ashes!"

He thought Zhao Yu was terrified.

She stepped one foot out of the ship's side, and with the other hand she turned back and gripped Zhao Yu's sleeve tightly.

Even though the fabric was hot to the touch, he wouldn't let go.

"Don't just stand there! Come with me!"

Zhao Yu remained motionless.

He looked down at the hand that was pulling at him.

You're such a nice person, but you're actually hurting me.

If I return to Jiangdong, I, Zhao Yu, will still have a way to survive.

Will Zhou Yu let me go?

Will Huang Gai's gang of brothers let me go?

Forget it.

"Let go."

"Don't keep me from getting my work done."

"Work? What kind of work?"

Huang Bing looked around at the sea of ​​fire.

"The fire's on! Mission accomplished! We're going to be the biggest heroes!"

"That's your task."

Zhao Yu raised his hand and pointed towards the central command tent, where the flames were the thickest and the figures were the most chaotic.

"My new mission is over there."

"Are you crazy? That's a pit of fire! It's full of Cao Cao's soldiers!"

Huang Bing gripped Zhao Yu's hand even tighter.

My brother is with me from the bottom of his heart, so why do you keep wanting him to die?

Zhao Yu frowned.

It's in the way.

Obstacle Clearance: Activated.

"Snapped!"

There were no signs whatsoever.

Zhao Yu slapped him across the face.

It hit Huang Bing's face.

Precise force control.

It wasn't killed, but it was full of kinetic energy.

"Get out of here!"

Huang Bing was sent flying.

It drew an arc in the air.

Then he fell into the river.

A splash of water rose up.

Full marks.

Whether you live or die depends on your fate.

The obstacles have been cleared.

Zhao Yu no longer hesitated.

There is no road ahead.

Only the burning wreckage of the chained warships remained.

And there was the iron chain that connected the warships.

[Environmental damage exemption: Enabled (heat resistance MAX).]

[Balance Assist: Enabled.]

"rise."

Use your legs to exert force.

The charred deck shattered completely.

Zhao Yu was launched into the air.

The foothold—the iron chain.

"Sizzle—"

The sole of the military boot touched the red-hot iron chain, emitting blue smoke.

A normal person would get burned and lose a layer of skin if they touched it.

But beneath Zhao Yu's feet, this is the broad road to success.

He ran wildly along the iron chain like a cat.

He took a step that covered three zhang (approximately 10 meters).

Boiling river water beneath my feet, and raging fire beside me.

In front.

The mast of a multi-story ship collapsed amidst flames, crashing into the iron chains.

Trying to block my way?

What a good-for-nothing.

Zhao Yu roared.

"Get out of here!"

His shoulder sank, and he crashed directly into it.

[Savage Rampage: Activated.]

He smashed the burning mast, which weighed several hundred kilograms, in half.

Mars is shooting out in all directions.

He emerged from the flames unharmed.

……

In front of the central command tent.

This place has become the epicenter of the fire.

Cao Cao's hair was disheveled and his face was covered in soot.

The red robe was half burned by the fire.

If it weren't for Xu Chu protecting him, he would have been dead long ago.

"Prime Minister, let's go quickly!"

Xu Chu roared and cleaved the falling burning fragments with a single stroke.

"Go? Where to?"

Cao Cao looked around in despair.

The main tent collapsed, and walls of fire surrounded it.

A way out? There's no way out.

Above their heads, the enormous flagpole of the commander's flag,

Because the base was burned, it made a persistent, relentless sound.

"Click—"

The flagpole broke completely.

It crashed straight down on Cao Cao's head.

This is divine retribution, and also a dead end.

The area is too large; there's nowhere to hide.

Cao Cao gave up resistance.

"Heaven has forsaken me..."

Cao Cao closed his eyes.

A hair's breadth away.

A figure burst out from the sea of ​​fire on the side.

The speed is so fast that it leaves an afterimage.

"boom--!!!"

A loud bang.

The excruciating pain Cao Cao had been waiting for did not come.

He opened his eyes.

in front of you,

Less than a foot away.

The burning flagpole stopped burning.

Suspended in mid-air.

One hand.

A hand blackened by smoke.

It held the flagpole firmly in place.

One hand, supporting the sky!

Sparks flew and landed on the man's shoulder and cheek, but he didn't move.

Zhao Yu flicked his wrist.

"rise."

He casually tossed the flagpole, which weighed several hundred pounds, more than three zhang away.

It smashed through a section of the wall of fire.

Zhao Yu didn't care about the dust on his hands.

Step forward, in front of Cao Cao,

Kneel on one knee.

Clasping hands in a fist salute.

Standard movements

"This humble general is Zhao Yu."

"By the mandate of Heaven."

"I have come specifically to rescue the Prime Minister."

Cao Cao opened his mouth wide and forgot to breathe.

My mind went completely blank.

"Zhao...Zhao Yu?"

Suddenly, he realized what was happening.

This sound.

That voice.

"You...you're the one..."

Cao Cao pointed at Zhao Yu,

"That righteous man who begged me to accept him?"

Zhao Yu nodded, his face sincere.

"It is indeed your humble servant."

"Prime Minister, I originally intended to bring General Huang along to protect Your Majesty, but unfortunately, the young general was too weak and disappeared after entering the water."

Zhao Yu even deliberately pretended to be heartbroken.

Cao Cao: "..."

Tears streamed down my face. This time I was truly moved, overjoyed to have survived such a close call.

"righteous!"

"A true hero!"

"I came from the sea of ​​fire, just to save my life!"

Cao Cao grabbed Zhao Yu's hand; it was burning hot to the touch, but Zhao Yu gripped it even tighter.

"I didn't misjudge you! Heaven hasn't failed me either!"

Before they could exchange pleasantries...

Shouts of battle came from outside.

"Kill the traitor Cao!"

"Don't let Cao Cao escape!"

A group of Eastern Wu soldiers charged in.

There were about twenty people, their armor stained with blood, clearly having broken through from the outer perimeter during the fierce battle.

Xu Chu can protect himself now, but with Cao Cao added to the mix, there's absolutely no chance he can break through the encirclement.

"General Zhao!"

Xu Chu roared urgently,

"The enemy troops are numerous and powerful, what can we do?!"

Zhao Yu stood up and drew his ring-pommel sword from his waist.

The blade points to the ground.

"Prime Minister."

Zhao Yu turned around and smiled brightly.

"Give the order."

Cao Cao was taken aback.

"What order is being given?"

Zhao Yu pointed at the group of soldiers rushing towards them.

"Let them die."

"Or, let them get out."

"Just say the word."

"I can do it."

"After all... here, you hold the highest rank."

Cao Cao watched Zhao Yu's retreating figure.

A sense of security I had never experienced before welled up in my heart.

This is the embodiment of power.

It can be accomplished simply by giving the order.

Cao Cao then regained some of his domineering and ruthless nature.

He pointed ahead.

Roared:

"Those who stand in my way—die!"

"Take me... and fight our way out!"

【Ding. 】

[Command detected: Breakout.]

[Execution Mode: Musou-style mowing down of enemies.]

[Power Level Adjustment: Activated.]

Zhao Yu turned his blade.

"Understood."

next second.

Zhao Yu rushed out.

(Cao Cao and Huang Bing called Zhao Yu "Zhao Yu," not as an insult, but because he was just a lowly soldier. More details will be added later.)
