Battle Royale of the Sinners

The aura that Tong had tried to rouse before seeped out from his body. It was not as strong as the first time he used it against Lu Bu the other day, but Tong could sense it.

Tong pointed the muzzles of his guns toward Lu Bu and fired both of them without caring if Lu Bu would die from the bullets.

*BANG* *BANG*

*BANG* *BANG*

Three bullets were ricocheted by Lu Bu's unique designed iron armor, but one bullet penetrated his left arm which was holding his halberd.

The sudden pain made Lu Bu turned around and gazed at Tong, who was standing in front of the entrance door of the government hall building.

The situation outside already subsided as all raiders were killed. However, the garrison troops dare not enter the hall because of the killing intent from Tong and Lu Bu.

"That sorcery again… I hate that coward way of fighting."

"I also hate your fighting style."

*BANG* *BANG*

*BANG* *BANG*

Tong fired his pistols as he aimed at Lu Bu's vital spots.

On the other side, Lu Bu swung his halberd with his uninjured right arm and deflected the majority of bullets that came for him.

*WHOOSH*

One of the bullets grazed his neck. It cut his minor blood vessels, which leaked out red liquid from his neck.

"No more playing catch! Now die!"

Lu Bu kicked the ground and disappeared from Tong's sight.

Although Tong could not see Lu Bu's movements, he sensed a signature of a living being coming at him from his left side.

Tong leaped toward his right and turned left with both his guns pointing forward. He fired again without confirming the target.

*BANG* *BANG*

*BANG* *BANG*

The bullets pierced Lu Bu's chest armor and bit into his flesh. However, they were too shallow.

The crescent halberd made a half-moon arc and slashed passed Tong's both extended arms that were holding the dual guns. Two arms were lopped off!

More after images slashed Tong's legs and torso. Blood gushed out all over the place.

Tong did not panic this time. Instead, his killing intent continued to grow.

Both of his lost arms regenerated. His injuries kept healing to counter the incoming attacks non-stop. Tong pulled out his lucky charm from his inventory. It was the grenade that Tong kept it with himself for over a year.

'Thank you for staying with me for all these times. Goodbye.'

Tong pulled the pin and jumped at Lu Bu as if he was a suicide bomber.

"If you die from this, you suck!"

*BOOM*

The grenade exploded at point blank. Fragments and shrapnel were pushed by the explosive forces and scattered in every direction.

Lu Bu felt as if he was hit by a sledgehammer at his chest. Several pieces of shrapnel got through his iron armor and dug themselves into his flesh. His body was knocked back into the air.

By instinct, Lu Bu regained his balanced in mid-air. His feet tapped on the ground lightly and staggered backward five steps. Then he came to a pause.

His chest armor was charred black and torn to shred. Blood dripped out from the numerous wound behind his wrecked armor. Both his arms were still intact, but small wounds could be seen everywhere. His tights and legs were in a better condition, but they were shaking as the force of the explosive shook his innards and nerve system.

Meanwhile, the explosion blasted away a large portion of Tong's bowel and tore his left arm. Tong did not wait. He regenerated his lost flesh in an instant.

'I forgot. All suicidal actions can override my physical immune passive.'

Tong was immune to all physical attacks, but he could still be harmed if he intentionally hurt himself, such as jumping off a tall building or cut himself. Throwing a grenade at himself also bypassed his immunity skill.

Because of the explosion, Tong had sparked another idea for combatting Lu Bu and future war.

'I should have done this earlier. I'm so stupid.'

Tong looked around the trace of the explosion. There were a small fire and smoke from the ground and the fragments of the grenade.

His rifle was lost when he fell down into this building. One of his three pistols was broken. The other two were on the ground with Tong's severed arms.

Tong pointed his palm at Lu Bu who was struggling and dizzy from the sudden explosive noise and forces.

"[Create Food]! Give me some vegetable oil! Limit the amount to 1 liter!"

Slippery substance liquid appeared above the head of Lu Bu and rained down upon him. He was now soaked with oil!

"Fengxian! If you don't want to die, stop what you are doing! We can still be friends in the future. Don't make me do this!"

Tong threatened to kill Lu Bu even though he felt pity for him. He meant it when he said he did not want to do this.

Meanwhile, Lu Bu stopped all of his movement. He stared forward while he concentrated to regain his hearing and his sight from the dizziness. He stood still for 3 minutes before he could hear and see everything again.

Noticing that he was soaked with oil, Lu Bu glanced around himself. Small traces of fire and smoke, caused by the grenade, were in between Tong and himself as if they were the line that he could not cross.

"Sorcery again one after another, huh? You know what, Tong? I take back my words. I hate you now. You're a coward like my master."

"If you hate your master that much, why are you following his order?"

"I have to. But I don't know why."

Tong sighed. He glanced at the system menu option. The clock on the screen showed 9.10 AM.

'Five more minutes.'

A sword was summoned from Tong's inventory. Tong glared back at Lu Bu as if he got himself ready for another bout. Lu Bu also readied his stance and planned to make the next move.

The crowd of garrison guards already entered the hall and surrounded the two. However, none of them dare to attack Lu Bu or Tong as their killing intent vortex was still present.

Tong noticed this. He hesitated if he should use this chance to run away now or continue confronting with this God of War.

'If I run, everyone here will be killed. Lu Bu is a freak right now.'

Tong sighed. Trying to protect others was tiring and it limited his options. If he were to run away, he could easily buy over 5 minutes of time for Lu Bu to regain his sense at the cost of these people's lives.

'I don't want these people dead.'

'Welp! I'll just troll Lu Bu till he's sober.'

…

Inside of Lu Bu's mind, his thought was in a mess.

'He has good basic warfare tactics. I can't cross those small fire line or I'm dead.'

'But I can easily leap through those. He is still too naïve.'

'Sorry, Tong. You have to die.'

'But why am I trying to kill him again?'

As someone with a strong temperament and absurd mentality, Lu Bu had already sobered up from the hypnotized skill. He was in confusion about the reason behind his actions.

'This is stupid. There's no reason to kill him to begin with!'

'He's just pissing me off with those sorceries. You're a man then fight like a man, Tong!'

'Argh! It's that guy's fault! He did something to me again!'

'Where's that guy again? I have to kill him another thousand times!'

Lu Bu disregarded about Tong and turned around. He tried to walk toward the exit of the main government hall.

However...

"[Create Food]! Give me water!"

Like a firefighter who was handling a firehose with insane water pressure, clear water gushed out from Tong's both palm and slammed into Lu Bu's chest. The water pressure power made Lu Bu staggered backward.

"Shit! Tong, stop! I-oof!"

Before Lu Bu could finish his sentences, the water line hit his face and got into his mouth. Lu Bu was stunned by the impact of the water pressure.

Tong checked the surrounding. All the traces of fire and smoke were gone by the water. He began his next move.

"Don't use the gen-Z words, Fengxian! Again, [Create Food]! Flood the floor with oil!"

A wave of oil flooded the government hall. The floor suddenly became slippery, and the surrounding soldiers lost their balance. They stumbled and collapsed on the ground, which destroyed their formation like falling dominos.

Lu Bu, who was stunned by the water jet, managed to regain his sight. However, he lost his footing because of the oil and slipped. He fell down on his knee.

"Tong! Stop using those sorceries! I'm-!"

"Yeet, [Create Food]! Water!"

Another water jet hit Lu Bu's face before he could talk again. He lost his balance and fell onto his back.

Lu Bu attempted to get up, but he found out that he could not get any traction from the ground. The floor was too slippery, and he could not even plant his foot on the ground.

"Tong, Stop!"

"[Create Food]! Water!"

"Ugh! Sto-!"

"[Create Food]! Oil and water!"

"Idiot! I-"

"[Create Food]! Water!"

…

…

9.25 AM.

Tong was into the spell casting that he forgot the time. He went over the estimated time for 10 minutes. He managed to control himself after he heard the galloping sounds of horses from the outside.

Zhang Liao regained his consciousness 15 minutes ago when Tong flooded the main hall with water and oil. He rejoined the garrison force to organize the surrounding forces.

Li Feihong had been carried away from the main hall 10 minutes ago. He was being treated by government physicians.

Gao Shun and his small team of cavalries arrived at the main hall. He was shocked by the sight of the flooded building and the corpses in front of it.

He rushed toward the main hall in a panic, then he found Zhang Liao.

"Wenyuan, what has happened!?" Gao Shun asked.

Zhang Liao gave Gao Shun a bitter smile and pointed at the carnage scenes in front of them.

"The rumor about Zhang Tong being an immortal… was real."

"What!?"

They had heard about the rumor of the Anping Battle before. They said that Tong could recover himself or was able to use sorceries and strange thunder magic.

Tong demonstrated all of them to Zhang Liao unknowingly during the fight against Lu Bu before Zhang Liao decided to help him stop his boss.

The aftermath of the battle between Tong and Lu Bu was the best proof for this.

Gao Shun looked around. Lu Bu was still lying on the ground in exhaustion while Tong stood tall in a perfect condition. Gao Shun did not need someone to tell of the result of the fight.

'I saw Zhang Tong left the city gate myself. How did he come here before me?'

Gao Shun was the only general in Ding Yuan army who did not know about Li Feihong's abilities. As a result, he was baffled by many things that happened today.

…

…

Lu Bu groaned and sat up. Tong finally stopped attacking him, so he could get a room for breathing.

The tattered God of War glared at Tong with blood-shot eyes. Then he screamed.

"TONG! YOU STUPID PIECE OF @#$%!@##@#$!!"

His words could not be comprehended by ordinary humans anymore.
