Chapter 32: Zhang An's counterattack

When Zhang An was in a hurry, the black light in the wizard's hand had already taken shape.

He pushed the black light in Zhang An's direction, and regardless of the outcome, he began to chant a new incantation again.

Zhang An looked at the black light that faintly appeared on the face of various distorted people, and knew that this black light was definitely a vicious spell, where did he dare to touch it, but at this time, he was entangled by the assassin again, and he couldn't dodge it at all.

And the target of that black light is still Lu Lingqi in his arms.

In order to evade the attacks of the assassins, Zhang An retreated again and again, and was forced into a corner of the inner hall, losing enough space for him to move around.

At this time, the assassin attack came to Zhang An again, and the black light was about to descend.

Zhang Anxin, who was unavoidable, turned around and took two attacks with his back.

The assassin's dagger stabbed into Zhang An's heart, and the black light also fell on Zhang An's left shoulder, silently melting a large piece of flesh there, revealing Sensen's white bones.

Zhang An, who had his back to the assassin, distorted his whole face in pain at this time, cold sweat broke out, and his eyes were red.

In this battle, Zhang An fought really aggrieved.

The assassins and wizards didn't care about him at all, and attacked Lu Lingqi in his arms, but could he ignore Lu Lingqi's safety and only care about himself?

Obviously, this was impossible, so nine times out of ten the attacks of the assassins and wizards fell on him.

After fighting to the current situation, Zhang An can be regarded as seeing that the assassins and wizards just forced Zhang An to take their attack, first playing Zhang An to death, and then killing Lu Lingqi with one sword.

It's despicable. Zhang Anxin roared angrily, but for assassins and wizards, they just wanted to complete the task, whether the means were bright or decent, they were all for the end result, and there was no psychological burden at all.

As soon as the assassin succeeded, he immediately pulled out the dagger that pierced Zhang An's heart, preparing to kill Zhang An in one fell swoop while Zhang An was turning his back on him.

Just between the lightning and flint, Zhang An firmly protected Lu Lingqi with both arms, and kicked his feet the ground.

"Boom" Zhang An smashed through the wall of the inner hall and came to the courtyard with a disgraced face.

Zhang An, who broke through the wall, turned around and retreated immediately, narrowly avoiding the assassin's pursuit.

The space in the courtyard was much larger than the inner hall, which gave Zhang An a chance to breathe when he was dodging.

Zhang An stared at the assassin in front of him and the wizard who slowly walked out of the inner hall, and caught a glimpse of corpses lying scattered in the courtyard.

It was the guards on Lu Bu's Mansion and those veterans who had retired.

The courtyard was very quiet, and it seemed that there was no one else except Zhang An.

Zhang An listened intently, not hearing the sound of Lu Bu's battle at all, and he didn't know what kind of enemy Lu Bu was fighting with in the backyard, and the battle had not been resolved until now.

However, the incident of breaking through the wall gave Zhang An a hint, Dian Wei lived next door to Lu Bu, so he might as well simply cross the Lu Mansion and find Dian Wei to save his life.

In a hurry, Dian Wei would not care about destroying the walls of his house if he came to him.

Zhang An's idea was good, but Zhang An, who was invaded by the toxin and became sluggish in his thinking, ignored one thing.

Cao Cao had already personally conquered Jiangdong, how could Dian Wei, who was Cao Cao's personal guard, still stay in Xudu?

If Zhang An really succeeded in running to Dian Wei's mansion, there would be no other ending except for bringing destruction to Dian Wei's family.

Unaware that his plan had a fatal loophole, Zhang An was about to put his ideas into action when the poison in his body flared up again.

He only felt numb in his hands and feet, and it was difficult to breathe.

Zhang An, who had a bad heart, reluctantly put on a shelf, and stood motionless, staring coldly at the assassin and the wizard.

The assassins and wizards looked at him coldly as if they hadn't noticed anything unusual about Zhang An.

In fact, at this time, the wizard also screamed in his heart.

The toxin applied to the assassin's dagger was extracted from a poisonous insect raised by barbarian wizards.

After this toxin enters the human body and mixes into the blood, it will spread throughout the body as quickly as possible with the flow of blood.

And the most vicious thing about this toxin is that it will keep devouring the life force of the poisoned person, and use the life force of the poisoned person as nourishment to constantly increase its own toxicity.

It's not so much a toxin as it is a poisonous insect that has transformed its life form.

Ordinary people will be dizzy just by smelling the smell of this toxin, and if they inhale too much smell in their body, they will die directly.

And although this toxin was discovered and put into use by wizards a long time ago, the wizards themselves have not developed an antidote so far, and can only refine some pills to delay the onset of the toxin.

This shows how domineering the toxicity of this poison is.

Normally, this toxin is used by sending the Dead to swallow a pill that slows the onset of the toxin, and then the other Assassins give the Dead Soldier the opportunity to assassinate the target in one hit.

This time, the barbarians sent a group of assassins and wizards to lurk in Xudu, the original intention was to kill Cao Cao, and then if the conditions permitted, they would assassinate Cao Cao's generals and strategists as much as possible.

Although the helpless barbarians divided more than half of their men to follow Cao Cao's army closely, ready to move at any time, they also knew that Cao Cao, who was in the center of the army and had a master like Dian Wei Xu Chu who was always close to him, had escaped a catastrophe.

The targets they wanted to assassinate were also replaced by generals and strategists in Cao Cao's army, who were relatively weak in their guards.

Most of Xu Du's assassination targets are gone, and there are only a few valuable targets left.

Lacking manpower, the Assassins targeted Xun Yu, who was guarding Xudu, and LĂź Bu, who was temporarily resting at home.

Between Xun Yu and Lu Bu, they focused on Lu Bu again.

Xun Yu was just a scribe, not as strong as Lu Bu's personal force.

The quenched dagger was actually used against Lu Bu.

If it weren't for the young Assassin's innate resistance to all toxins, the barbarians would not have dared to hand over the poison-quenched dagger to him.

After all, if you want to assassinate Lu Bu, it can't be solved in three or two moves, it must be a hard and protracted battle.

Otherwise, the assassin was poisoned to death before he could kill with a quenched dagger, wouldn't it be ridiculous and generous.

And for insurance, the toxins on the dagger were made from the toxins purified by thirty-six poisonous insects, mixed with eight other highly poisonous substances.

The moment the toxin was refined, even if the wizard who proposed the toxin swallowed the drug and added layers of protection to himself, he was still immediately poisoned to death and turned into a puddle of pus and blood.

But with such a violent toxin, this poisoned Central Plains man was still able to escape the pursuit of him and the assassins one after another, and successfully escaped from the small inner hall to the courtyard.

What a monster this guy is!

In fact, this wizard thought about it, it stands to reason that Zhang An should have been poisoned to death.

But Zhang An still has one more stone in his body than others, a strange stone that can absorb life force.

As mentioned earlier, this toxin is more like a poisonous insect that has changed its life form, so when the toxin enters the body, it feels that there is a different kind of life force invading the stone, and it immediately activates it to devour the toxin extracted by the poisonous insect.

And at this moment, Zhang An's poisonous hair from time to time is actually just the effect of the remaining eight highly poisonous things.

Although the remaining poison is also very violent, in the case of Zhang An's powerful vitality constantly healing itself and replacing blood, it will take a long time for Zhang An to be poisoned.

And there are two sides to everything, and the poisonous insect can devour the life force, which means that it also contains enough life force to fight the life force of the poisoned person himself.

At this time, the stone is constantly extracting life force from the devoured toxin, and when the time comes, after leaving the part it needs, the stone will feed the remaining part back to Zhang An.

After all, Zhang An is the host of the stone, and the stone can't just care about itself and ignore Zhang An's life crisis.

But the biggest problem now is that it takes a long time for the stone to refine its vitality, and during this time, Zhang An's vitality is constantly declining.

The rate at which Zhang An's vitality declined far exceeded the speed at which the stone extracted his vitality, and when the stone succeeded, Zhang An's corpse was cold.

In order to prevent this from happening, the stone has to extract its life force from the outside world.

And the first one to suffer was Lu Lingqi, who had been hiding in her arms.

It's just that Zhang An's attention was all on the assassin wizard opposite at this time, and he didn't realize that Lu Lingqi in his arms had fainted with a pale face.

Lu Lingqi is just a child, and she can't provide much vitality for the stone at all, if she delays it any longer, Lu Lingqi's ending will be like a jackal that night, turning into white bones.

Zhang An, who didn't know that Lu Lingqi had fallen into a crisis, was confronting the enemy.

Zhang An saw that the two of them didn't do anything, but he was relieved.

If it drags on like this, maybe Lu Bu will come back soon, and he will be able to save some effort.

If he doesn't move, it means that the speed of blood flow slows down, the toxin attack slows down, and it also gives him a chance to breathe.

The two sides confronted each other for a while, and the wizard who had not seen Zhang An's poisonous death for a long time finally couldn't help it.

He recited the spell that he had just not completed, and at this moment, when he heard the wizard open his mouth, he pounced on Zhang An again.

This time, the Assassins did not play the trick of concealment, but attacked head-on in an open and honest manner.

Zhang An didn't do it? He forced Zhang An to do it and accelerated the speed of the toxin attack.

With a secret sigh, Zhang An mustered up his energy, used all his strength, and played a game of hide and seek with the assassin.

While dodging the assassin's attack, Zhang An consciously approached the wall of the Lu Mansion.

It seems that he saw Zhang An's plan, the assassin's attack became more and more fierce, and Zhang An's dodge became more and more difficult, and he could be stabbed into the vital point at any time.

At this moment, Lu Bu's angry roar sounded in the backyard.

"Zhang An!

Zhang An was overjoyed, and suddenly felt full of strength.

The assassin, however, was shocked, and his movements unconsciously slowed down.

The biggest reliance of his group has been used on Zhang An, if they are rushed by the angry Lu Bu, they will all die!

Just as the assassin was about to retreat, his right arm was grabbed by Zhang An.

Zhang An had been pressed and beaten for so long, he had already held back a fire in his heart, and seeing that the assassin was distracted by Lu Bu's arrival, he immediately endured the pain and reached out and grabbed the assassin's right arm, ready to give the assassin a cruel blow.

Who would have expected that when Zhang An grabbed the assassin's right arm, a steady stream of vitality was pulled out of the assassin's right arm by Zhang An's left hand and flowed into Zhang An's body.

Both sides were stunned.

Zhang Anxin wondered when he had this extra ability?

The assassin was thinking that this bastard was hiding deep enough, and he even had a move to press the bottom of the box until now!

After a brief pause, the Assassin was also a resolute man, and with his left hand he felt a short blade from his waist, and without hesitation, he cut off his right arm, and quickly retreated, leading the wizard with him in a few ups and downs.

Zhang An lost the right arm of the assassin whose vitality was drained in the blink of an eye, and turned into a dry corpse, looked at Lu Lingqi in his arms, and his face suddenly changed greatly.
