Outside Ying Tao City.
Looking at Wu Wei’s face, Gao Lan smiled and said, “Don’t tell me you think you can hide your little tricks from me?”
“Why are you…”
“Alright, I know you know. There’s no need to say any nonsense!”
Before Wu Wei could finish his words, he was grabbed by Gao Lan again.
In the next second, the [Crimson Flame Hundred Beasts Gang Qi] that he had extracted from Wu Wei’s body an hour or two ago was poured in again, filling Wu Wei up!
This weight was much more than the first time Gao Lan made a move.
This time, not only did the Stellar Energy fill Wu Wei’s body, but it also sealed the surface of his body.
Wu Wei was immediately immobilized by this Stellar Energy.
As for Gao Lan, he immediately took action after controlling Wu Wei.
A group of Han soldiers surrounded Wu Wei, and Gao Lan disappeared from Wu Wei’s side.
Although Wu Wei couldn’t see Gao Lan, he knew very well where Gao Lan had gone.
It was obvious that Gao Lan had never believed Wu Wei from the beginning.
He had followed Wu Wei’s plan to set a trap for Wu Wei, or rather, for Zhang Niujiao!
About a few hundred meters away from Wu Wei, a group of people led by a rank 8 warlock was guarding a spot. Gao Lan’s figure also appeared.
When he saw Gao Lan, the eighth-rank Warlock immediately flattered him. “General Gao is a god-like soldier. This subordinate admires him!”
“What does this have to do with using troops?”
Although Gao Lan rolled his eyes in his heart, his expression was calm and even carried a faint smile.
“How are the preparations going, sir?”
“I’ve prepared it according to your instructions. I’ve set up an array formation around the area. The eye of the array is on that thief’s side. As long as someone comes to rescue him, I can give him a ruthless blow!”
“Yes, thank you for your hard work!”
Gao Lan patted the Warlock’s shoulder and continued, “As long as there are no accidents, after the matter is done, you can take the treasure you want!”
As soon as he said this, the Warlock became even more excited and his face flushed red. “General, don’t worry. This subordinate has already made preparations. There will definitely be no accidents!”
“I hope so!” Gao Lan only smiled.
After saying this, Gao Lan wanted to put a stop to their small talk.
He turned around and stared at Wu Wei.
On the other hand, the warlock next to him was obviously a little too excited by Gao Lan’s words, and his mind was filled with thoughts of flattering the leader. He chatted with Gao Lan for a while longer. “What are you saying? This subordinate might make a mistake here, but General Gao definitely won’t make a mistake.
Today, everything was under General Gao’s control. A mere Yellow Turban thief would definitely not be able to cause any trouble!
Once again, this subordinate wishes General Gao a steady grasp of the turtle in the urn and a steady grasp of the battle achievements!”
“Not necessarily. There’s nothing absolute in this world. Before the dust settles, I don’t dare to say that I have complete control over it!
Perhaps there would be changes!”
“General Gao, you’re being humble again.” The Warlock smiled. “What else can happen?
This little thief has a rare treasure, and his status among the Yellow Turban is definitely not low. He also has the materials from our military depot. Could it be that the Yellow Turban will leave him alone and attack Ying Tao?”
The Warlock was just joking around and sucking up to the leader, but he didn’t expect it to go straight to the horse’s leg.
Gao Lan’s expression changed when he heard this.
“What happened to General Gao?”
“You’re right. Bring that kid back!”
“What?”
Before the warlocks could react, they saw Gao Lan transform into a red light and rush toward Gall Tao City.
When Gao Lan stood up and left, Wu Wei saw him and couldn’t help but smile.
In fact, he had already expected this situation.
Therefore, when Old Zhang left, he asked Old Zhang to send troops to attack Gall Tao City and create a diversion to lure Gao Lan away.
It was obvious that the plan had succeeded.
On the other side, on the Warlock’s side, the Warlock was stunned for a while after seeing Gao Lan leave.
Gao Lan was in such a hurry that he might have accidentally hit the nail on the head. The Yellow Turbans had really left this little thief to attack Gall Tao City.
“What a cheap mouth!”
The Warlock could not help but pat his mouth.
As he clapped, the Warlock stood up and walked towards Wu Wei.
As he approached, the expression on the Warlock’s face changed.
The greed on his face became more and more obvious, and his face was full of eagerness, as if he wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to kill Wu Wei and drop his treasures.
“It won’t be easy to explain to General Gao if we kill him!”
Although the Warlock said that, the greed on his face grew more and more uncontrollable. “Explanation? Who do I have to answer to as a member of the Great Han Imperial Warlock Guild?
When Gao Lan asks about it later, just say that I was killed by the Yellow Turban thief. I’ll see what he can do to me!”
As soon as these words were said, the warlock’s mental preparation was basically completed. The greed and killing intent in its eyes reached the most vigorous and bright stage. It clenched its hands, and a ball of fire that was like magma appeared in its hands. It casually waved it and directly threw it at Wu Wei.
The fireball that was as hot as lava smashed out.
With the scorching heat of the fireball, if it landed on Wu Wei, he would basically die.
At this moment, even Wu Wei, who was enveloped by the [Crimson Flame Hundred Beast Gang Qi], felt a strong sense of danger.
It felt like someone was stabbing a needle into your eyes.
In this sense of crisis, Wu Wei subconsciously summoned the [Torch Talisman] to absorb the [Crimson Flame Hundred Beasts Gang Qi] on his body.
But as soon as the [Torch Talisman] appeared, Wu Wei felt that something was wrong.
It couldn’t be absorbed. The [Crimson Flame Hundred Beasts Gang Qi] seemed to be under someone’s control. The [Torch Talisman] couldn’t absorb a single bit.
This stunned Wu Wei.
“What’s going on?”
Before Wu Wei could figure it out, a shout sounded.
“Thief, don’t hurt my young master!”
“Moo!”
As he shouted, the sound of a bull’s roar seemed to be heard. In the next second, a golden bull’s head smashed into the fireball and shattered it, sending the Warlock in front of Wu Wei flying.
At the same time, a familiar yet unfamiliar figure appeared in front of Wu Wei.
Who else could this guy be but Old Zhang?
However, the moment he saw Old Zhang’s real body, Wu Wei’s face did not reveal surprise, but realization. At the same time, he hurriedly shouted, “Let’s go! Don’t come near me!”
“What did you say?”
Because of the [Crimson Flame Hundred Beasts Gang Qi], Old Zhang couldn’t hear Wu Wei’s words clearly. He subconsciously approached Wu Wei, wanting to tear apart the Gang Qi on Wu Wei’s body.
However, as Old Zhang approached, the [Crimson Flame Hundred Beast Gang Qi] on Wu Wei’s body suddenly boiled and turned into a long red blade that slashed at Zhang Niujiao!
Zhang Niujiao was caught off guard by this sudden attack. In an instant, the red saber landed on Zhang Niujiao’s body and set Old Zhang on fire!
Wu Wei’s expression changed when he saw this. He thought that Old Zhang was going to die. However, to his surprise, the red long knife only ignited Old Zhang’s clothes when it landed on Old Zhang’s body. Old Zhang himself was unharmed.
It was only then that Wu Wei remembered that Ah Huang had learned the Golden Body Indestructible Boy Technique from Old Zhang.
At the same time, Gao Lan, who had just escaped, frowned when he saw that his attack had failed and adopted a backup plan.
Wu Wei could clearly feel the [Crimson Flame Hundred Beasts Gang Qi] all over his body becoming active.
It was as if an invisible hand was grabbing him and pulling him in the direction of Ying Tao City!
During the entire process, Wu Wei was quite passive. He had no room to resist at all and could only passively let the other party pull him away.
Wu Wei couldn’t move, but Zhang Niujiao could!
“Stop!”
A deafening roar sounded, and Wu Wei clearly felt his body relax.
At the same time, the force pulling him disappeared.
However, before the first wave subsided, another wave rose. Just as Wu Wei felt the force pulling him disappear, a sharp sound of air being torn sounded in the surroundings.
Golden arrows were fired at them.
Wu Wei hurriedly glanced at the arrow and saw the general attributes of the arrow.
[Armor Piercing Crossbow] (Legendary) (One-time Grade 7 God Weapon Talisman) (Even a Grade 8 expert’s Brute Training would be weak in front of it)
Looking at this attribute, Wu Wei realized the danger.
In this dangerous public relations situation, Old Zhang appeared especially mighty and majestic, giving people a sense of security.
Old Zhang came to Wu Wei in a few steps, grabbed him, and threw him a few hundred meters away.
Wu Wei managed to escape, while Old Zhang was pierced by three of the [Armor Piercing Arrows].
One hit his left foot, one hit his right hand, and one hit his abdomen!
Gao Lan, who had just pretended to return to Gall Tao City, rushed out and charged straight at Zhang Niujiao.
On the other side, the Warlock who had been beaten up by Zhang Niujiao also stood up and walked towards Wu Wei.
At this moment, whether it was Wu Wei or Zhang Niujiao, they were both facing a life and death crisis.
This wasn’t the first time Wu Wei had faced a life-and-death crisis, but this time, he felt extremely helpless.
On one hand, it was a hellish opening, and on the other hand, he was unlucky to meet an opponent like Gao Lan.
Wu Wei had really used all the methods he could think of, but the other party did not fall for it. Not only did he not fall for it, but he also used it to make Wu Wei’s already bad situation even more difficult.
A random Great Man Instance Dungeon, a random Perfect Grade trash, was already so difficult to deal with. Wu Wei really did not know what to say.
But Wu Wei didn’t want to say anything.
He was thinking about how to escape from the danger in front of him.
Looking at the greedy Warlock walking over, Wu Wei had no choice but to summon his Summoned Beast to buy him time!
Only by buying enough time would Wu Wei be able to refine the [Crimson Flame Hundred Beasts Gang Qi] and use the [Backtrack Power] to turn the tables.
The Warlock could clearly see Wu Wei’s struggle, and his lips curled into a cold smile. “Don’t even think about struggling. In this situation, whatever you do is futile.”
As he spoke, another terrifying lava fireball appeared in the Warlock’s hand.
The terrifying temperature caused the surroundings to distort.
With this attack, whoever Wu Wei summoned would die.
However, in this situation, if Wu Wei did not summon one, he would die.
Even with the existence of the Backtrack Bead, Wu Wei still couldn’t bear to kill Ah Huang and the others. Therefore, Old Eighth was unlucky.
The Eighth Brother who had not been summoned after Wu Wei carved it was summoned by Wu Wei to block the fireball!
Wu Wei waved his hand casually, and a gray light lit up.
In the next second.
A huge figure appeared in shock…
