Chapter 465: If Only the Winged General of Han Were Around

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“A sacrificial ritual!”

“Are we going to summon a new hero?”

“Quickly. Let’s get a good spot by the altar.”

The players of Dragon City looked excited because they were going to summon a real Transcendent hero for the first time.

Although Li Yuanba and Zhao Yun were of the Transcendent level, they had been summoned in advance and had their Transcendent power sealed.

This time, the hero would be a genuine Transcendent one, and everyone was looking forward to it.

“Anyone below the Extraordinary level, please leave the altar area. You can watch the event from the cloud screen from afar.”

An Quan used Voice Far Away and made the announcement from the altar.

They needed to keep the less advanced players away because it was going to be a Transcendent-level ritual. Unexpected things might happen.

“Roar... Roar...”

Above the altar, two 30m-long dragons of providence soared and hummed quietly.

On the altar was a pair of pure golden wings as thin as those of a cicada. Their sharp edge gave off Transcendent energy in the sunlight.

They were none other than the wings dropped by the yaksha king.

But Ji Ye had obviously fused them already.

Their middle section was linked, and a shiny golden armor hung below them.

[Night King Light Armor]

[Level: Transcendent Rank-1]

[Rarity: Perfect]

[Description: The master of Dragon City made it by fusing the wings with a great amount of Radiant Gold and Silver Liquid. They are very capable, could fly at high speed, and could absorb the Transcendent power transformed from sunlight and metals.]

The Fusion of this object was quite tricky.

Because after the first Fusion, the wings didn’t become Perfect but merely Superior.

Ji Ye had to think of other ways to raise its level by fusing it with other objects.

After a few trials, he accidentally found that by using the Transcendent Silver Liquid as a medium, theoretically, the Radiant Gold could fill in that gap.

In the end, he built a unique armor with wings, using the Light Armor of the Tang Dynasty as a prototype.

“Roar... Roar...” the dragons roared.

The golden light landed on the offering that Ji Ye named Night King Light Armor.

Boom!

Immediately after that, black smoke rose out of the wings. action

Dark clouds rolled in the sky and covered the sun. While thousands of players watched, the green-faced yaksha king appeared in the sky, baring his fangs. His eyes were filled with hatred.

“Wow, the yaksha king is so ugly!”

Outside the altar, a lot of players pointed at the yaksha king in the sky.

Compared with female yakshas, who resembled humans much more and even had a unique charm about them, male yakshas didn’t fit human’s aesthetic at all.

“Hoooo!”

However, after the yaksha king took shape, he bellowed in the air.

The murderous energy swept across the air, charging at the people outside the altar area.

Clang, clang, clang...

His wings flapped quickly, and he was covered by a golden light as he moved. Wherever he went, the sharp edge of his wings left deep gashes on the altar.

He was moving toward the area where the crowd was the most densely packed.

“Ah!”

“Run!”

“My ears...”

The new players began to panic.

“What? A Transcendent Soul of Civilization can break out of the Battlefield of Providence and attack the actual world around it!”

The management team of Dragon City focused more on the meaning of this incident.

It was a piece of important information.

Needless to say, if that was the case and an Extraordinary settlement started the Transcendent ritual without knowing this, they might suffer a great loss.

After all, if a Transcendent offering went berserk, it could kill a lot of core members of the settlement!

But it would never happen in Dragon City.

Although the Transcendent yaksha king showed great capability, which was even beyond that of the Yuan emperor and South King, the Twin Dragons of Providence had both grown to nearly 30m and not many Transcendent Rank-1 beings could be more powerful than them.

Most of the energy released by the yaksha king had been blocked by the dragons, and Ji Ye had purposefully let a small section leak to the surrounding area so that the common players would know how it felt and could be prepared for the coming war against the yaksha race.

However, the dragons could only passively confine the yaksha king but couldn’t completely suppress him.

Because according to the rules, the yaksha king’s only real enemy was the Transcendent Quasi-Commander Soul of Civilization at the center of the altar. It had just been activated.

“Everyone, back off a little further. Clear the altar area.”

Using Voice Far Away, An Quan delivered another message for Ji Ye.

Hum!

Covered by silver light, the Soul of Civilization turned into a medium-built hero that wore a black armor of Han style.

He had long arms as strong as those of an ape and was holding a black iron bow.

From his calloused hands and gray sideburns under his helmet, one could tell that he was on the older side.

There was something about him that suggested that he had been an experienced military man.

He should be a real veteran.

Outside the altar area, one of the players who had withstood the yaksha king’s attack murmured, “A veteran who uses a bow. Can it be Huang Zhong of the Five Tiger Generals?”

After all, Dragon City already had many heroes from the Three Kingdoms era, and heroes of the Three Kingdoms era would find it almost as attractive as heroes of the Water Margin.

Although there were Transcendent heroes in the Water Margin, not many of them could be Perfect.

Of course, that was excluding the famous government officials of the Song Dynasty.

“Huang Zhong would be great!

“In terms of combat capability, Lü Bu was doubtlessly the top warrior of the Three Kingdoms era.

“The only person that’s comparable is probably Huang Zhong when he was young!”

Some Three Kingdoms fans couldn’t help getting excited when Huang Zhong’s name was mentioned.

In the , Huang Zhong was able to fight Guan Yu all by himself in his 60s. If he were 20 years younger, maybe he would really be able to compete with Lü Bu, the legendary warrior.

As for how to make Huang Zhong younger?

Dragon City had more than enough resources to restore one’s vitality, which would be equivalent to prolong one’s life.

Elder Meng and Elder Jiao now looked like they were in their 40s or 50s.

Huang Zhong was at his prime in his 40s, and he would be a great addition to Dragon City’s combat capability!

“It can’t be Huang Zhong, not according to the historical record.

“Even with his popularity among Three Kingdoms heroes, he’ll be Superior at most, not Perfect.”

Hearing the players’ excited conversation, Guo Wei, who knew the characteristics of the armor, shook his head.

The evaluation of historical figures in the Land of Inheritance was obviously based on the entire Chidragon history. Of the Five Tiger Generals, Zhang Fei and Guan Yu were among the 64 generals worshiped in Emperor Wucheng Temple. Naturally, they would be considered Perfect and even above.

As for Zhao Yun, because of his popularity, he was considered perfect by most people.

Hence, he was worth the evaluation.

But even with their popularity, the other two generals probably weren’t worth the Perfect evaluation.

In fact, Ma Chao and Huang Zhong weren’t the only ones. Of the few special heroes that were summoned earlier, even Dian Wei, a renowned warrior second only to Lü Bu, had difficulties in completing the Perfect level trials.

Although Dian Wei was capable enough to be considered a top Transcendent hero, in terms of popularity, he was far inferior to Zhou Yu and Zhao Yun.

Strictly speaking, like Gongsun Sheng and Yan Qing, Dian Wei was somewhere between Superior and Perfect.

He was able to arrive at Dragon City because of the South King’s overbearing power and the fact that Dragon City had limited the requirement to a “fierce general”. Therefore, he had the chance to come to the top settlement of Earth.

But the first real Transcendent hero of Dragon City had to be someone like Zhou Yu or Zhao Yun, who had the potential of becoming Legendary.

So, who would this elderly general be?

The players didn’t need to wait for long. As soon as the figure took shape, a poem was chanted.

[“The same moon of ancient Qin also shone on the same fort of historic Han. Hardly any made a return from a thousand-league marching expedition. If only the Winged General of Han were around to fight the township of Basilisk, the barbarians and their horses would never have dared to cross the Mountains of Yin.”]

However, unlike the sonorous voice before, it sounded young this time. It was both full of high spirits and filled with emotions.

“The same moon of Qin and the Winged General... Can it be...”

As soon as the poem was chanted, both the players and educated natives looked surprised.

[“Woods darkened and wind startled grass, the general drew his bow at dusk, searching the white feather in the break of day, into the crack of a flint sunk the arrowhead.”]

But before they could go on, new poems were chanted.

Unlike the first voice, this time, it belonged to someone older.

[“When he was a youth of fifteen or twenty, he chased a wild horse, caught it, and rode it. He shot the white-browed mountain tiger; he defied the yellow-bristled horseman of Ye. Fighting single-handedly for a thousand miles, with his naked dagger he could hold a multitude of enemies...”]

[“From the colonel on the frontier come summons to arms over the sea of desert. The Hun chieftain’s army and beacon have arrived at Mount Wolverine and are in place. There perish half of the soldiers at the front fighting to their death, yet in the camp dancing to melodies are beautiful ladies! Do you not see how miserable a soldier’s life is on the battlefield? Long live the spirit of General Li of Han, who is held venerable by all to this day.”]

[“Last night autumn wind entered the strategic pass when in the northern frontier the moon and clouds filled the West Mountain. Upon orders, the brave general chased after the invaders, lest any single enemy horse flee from the battlefield.”]

Each poem was chanted by a different voice with different emotions.

Some were old and depressed, some were middle-aged and calm, and others had the passion of youth.
