Chapter 172

Fortunately, the game space's prompt sound woke him from that terrifying suppression.

Otherwise,

he might have taken direct damage for missing the response time,

straight up!

Divine Zhao Yun sheathed the Green-Blade Sword,

and stood silently behind Gu Xuan once more.

The Cao Cao player's face turned bright red,

and only at that moment did he remember he still needed to breathe.

He lay on the table, panting heavily in great gasps.

"Is this the might of a Divine General?"

After a brief moment of recovery,

the Cao Cao player, still shaken, stole two glances at Divine Zhao Yun.

Earlier, because Gu Xuan had not played an attack card,

he had not felt the terrifying killing intent radiating from Divine Zhao Yun.

Now, experiencing it firsthand,

the Cao Cao player regretted why he had accepted the Captain's mission.

'No way, after this round,'

'I won't do it no matter how many Gold Bean Lucky Pouches the Captain offers.'

'People might just get scared to death right inside the game space.'

The Cao Cao player pressed his chest firmly a few times,

steadied his mind,

and looked at Gu Xuan, whose face still bore that inexplicable smile,

causing him to shiver involuntarily.

………………

"Hearts count as Peaches, Spades count as Unstoppable, Diamonds count as Fire Attacks,"

"Hand size fixed at four cards,"

"Judging by the situation, Clubs can probably transform too,"

"Player 1314 previously revealed an Otherworldly General,"

"but the one he brought out this time is a living King of Hell!"

Yang Haoguang stared in shock at the spectator screen.

After Gu Xuan summoned Divine Zhao Yun,

he suddenly realized

that choosing to oppose Player 1314

seemed like a very foolish move!

"If he manages to draw the Zhuge Crossbow,"

"six people probably wouldn't be enough for him to kill."

Yang Haoguang bitterly smiled in his heart,

yet still clung to a sliver of hope, forcing himself to continue watching the match.

As a result,

he saw Player 1314

pull a Zhuge Repeating Crossbow from his hand and equip it in one swift motion.

Silence...

Silence is tonight's Cambridge...

Yang Haoguang silently pulled a pack of cigarettes from his pocket,

opened the pack,

pinched one out,

and tremblingly placed it between his lips,

picked up a lighter to ignite it,

only to find his hands shaking so badly

that the flame wavered, unable to aim at the cigarette at all.

…………

The moment Gu Xuan pulled out the Zhuge Repeating Crossbow,

the Cao Cao player had already resigned himself and closed his eyes.

Right now,

he had even decided where he would be buried next.

He looked at Gu Xuan with a fragile expression,

and pleaded pitifully:

"Big Shot..."

"I'll quit the team after this round,"

"You... go easy on me..."

His Golden Beans were sufficient; he would not be erased by the game space.

Yet the aura and momentum radiating from Divine Zhen Zhao were simply too terrifying.

With every strike he landed,

a considerable shadow would form in his heart.

So he hoped Player 1314 could kill him sooner,

thereby ending the match.

Gu Xuan smiled brightly,

and slowly shook his head amidst the Cao Cao player's expectant expression.

"No."

"When you first targeted me, weren't you quite eager to do so?"

Rejecting the Cao Cao player,

Gu Xuan equipped the -1 Horse,

and then began slaughtering indiscriminately!

"A thousand li of rage, red lotuses illuminate the world!"

"Fire Kill!"

"Fire Attack!"

"Wine Kill!"

Cao Cao had a total of five health points.

But due to the 【Desperate Situation】 skill,

the damage cards in Gu Xuan's hand were almost never exhausted.

One after another,

he threw them out as if they cost nothing.

Although Zhang Liao and the Diao Chan player still had Peaches in their hands,

saving Cao Cao from the brink of death twice,

this was merely a dying struggle.

Glancing at the Cao Cao player, who had only one health point left and no Dodge cards in hand,

and after ensuring he still had two Diamonds in hand to finish the job,

Gu Xuan threw the excess damage cards at Da Qiao.

"Duel!"

"Iron Chain Linkage!"
