Chapter 281 Martial Soul! Dark Lu Bu!
Japan's veneration of figures from the Three Kingdoms period has a long history. Since the Edo period, the story of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" has been circulated among the people through books and operas.

Zhao Zilong's loyalty and bravery, Guan Yu's righteousness, and Zhuge Liang's wisdom are deeply imprinted in Japanese culture, becoming symbols of the Bushido spirit.

Games, animations, and films have continuously reshaped the image of heroes from the Three Kingdoms period, even giving rise to a unique "Three Kingdoms craze." Many companies regard Guan Yu as the "God of Business," and incense offerings to Guan Yu are commonly seen in shrines.

This cross-cultural admiration continues to this day, and Kazuo Yamanaka, a market researcher at [China Film Special Effects], is a typical example of this cultural sentiment...

..............................

When that weapon, wreathed in black and red energy, tore through the screen!

Kazuo Yamanaka's pupils suddenly contracted!

As a Japanese person who grew up immersed in the culture of the Three Kingdoms period, the familiar coiled dragon pattern on the halberd's blade gave him goosebumps!
An indescribable feeling of excitement welled up inside me!

That is!

Fang Tian draws a halberd!

That is!

That's the weapon of Lu Bu, the legendary demon god of the Three Kingdoms, who swept through armies in the illustrations of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms"!
At that moment, he held his breath!

Staring intently at the screen!

On the screen.

In the dim moonlight, he saw the fallen halberd entwined with black and red energy turbulence, and the air rippled as the blade sliced ​​through it...

Immediately afterwards, they saw the dark light emanating from the halberd tip devouring the city wall bricks and stones like living things, and they could vaguely hear the booming sound of metal cracking and the eerie chanting, which sent chills down their spines!
His hand trembled slightly. Although his expression gradually returned to calm, images of the Lu Bu doll he had collected as a child and the "ghostly descent" special effects that kept appearing in the game flashed through his mind.

The demonic halberd piercing the heavens and earth before him evoked both the exciting anticipation of his childhood and a sense of eeriness that overturned his understanding!
He stared intently at every frame on the screen, not daring to miss a single detail!
On the screen, the halberd that tore through the night sky pierced through the city wall with overwhelming force. The black and red energy wrapped around the halberd blade burned eerily like boiling magma, evaporating the reinforced concrete into a sky full of scarlet crystal fragments...

He saw the dragon patterns carved on the halberd writhing in the dark light, and the shockwaves from the halberd tip blasted the entire section of the city wall into dust. The flying debris turned into a deadly meteor shower in slow motion!

As the camera panned across the end of the halberd handle, the characters "Fengxian" could be faintly seen flashing by in the bloody light, as if a murder weapon that had been dormant for a thousand years had suddenly awakened...

See this scene!
His breathing became rapid and he couldn't control it!
In the screening room, some people excitedly screamed "Lu Bu!", but then gradually fell silent.

Everyone was staring blankly at the screen!

Kazuo Yamanaka felt goosebumps rise all over his body!

He understood all too well the power of such blank space!
That dark martial spirit, which had not yet made its appearance, shattered the psychological defenses of all the spectators with its weapon alone!

........................

The moment the halberd pierced the city wall, it was as if the entire world had been torn open with a bloody wound.

The rumble of the collapsing city walls had not yet subsided when a deafening roar of beasts echoed from the depths of darkness...

Countless scarlet eyes lit up in the smoke and dust, and a horde of beasts surged forward like a tide, trampling over the severed limbs of their companions!

That's a "beast tide!"

The [Beast Tide] in "Wuhun 2".

……

Chen Hua'an looked at the computer screen.

I don't know if it's because the camerawork in "Wuhun 3" is very subtle, or because the visual effects are exquisite and delicate...

Even at this moment, he still felt a slight vibration from the image!
The scenes in this movie are extremely brutal, even more moving than those in "Wu Hun 2".

He saw the Earth Defense Force's searchlight sweep across the gap, and the camera captured a breathtaking scene...

The three-headed mutated crocodile beast charged out of the smoke screen under machine gun fire, its body, covered in bullet casings, expanding as it ran.

The captain's desperate order to "fire" was drowned out by the explosion. Before the front-line soldiers could even set up their flamethrowers, they were swept down by the sudden, bone-like tails.

Because it's a movie aimed at teenagers, there aren't any explicit scenes of bloodshed, but in the dim darkness, you can still sense the medic dragging his broken leg toward the communicator.

However, the moment the bloodied finger touched the button, darkness engulfed the screen, as if something had crashed down on his head...

As the lights came on, the camera briefly panned across the scene...

The moment his finger touched the button, the camera abruptly switched.

Then, a helmet motionless on the ground flashed across the corner of the screen.

Then, gritting his teeth, he pulled out his sidearm and fired repeatedly...

The moment the crocodile beast pounced on him, a resolute expression appeared on his face.

He saw Lao Zhang from the demolition team rolling into the heart of the animal herd a hundred meters behind him, carrying a pack of explosives.

In the scene, Ding Rong, playing the role of "Xiao Yi," drags his broken body onto the ruins. Having lost his martial spirit power, he resolutely charges into the lead crocodile beast!
After being knocked away by the powerful impact, he clung tightly to the beast's claws and roared, "Zhao Yang! Retreat! Build a defensive line, quick!"... Before he could finish speaking, another giant beast slammed him aside.
In the distant command post, Chen Jianfeng, who plays "Zhao Yang," slammed his fist on the table upon seeing this scene.

The camera cuts to a close-up of his bloodied fist; drops of blood seeping from between his fingers fall onto the cracks in the Dragon's Gallbladder Silver Spear, creating a faint spark.
In the end, he gritted his teeth and arranged for everyone's evacuation...

Under the lens!
The city wall crumbled like paper under the impact of the halberd, and rubble rained down like a storm. Countless figures scattered in terror, only to be swallowed up by the billowing dust and flying bricks.

Countless bricks and dust poured down.

Many panicked figures were swallowed up by the smoke and falling debris...

The camera rapidly switches between shots, showing only violent shaking, collapsing walls, and a scene of chaos.

……

In the darkness, the roars of the beast horde and the screams of humans intertwined to create a blood-red symphony.

Suddenly, a deafening burst of laughter erupted from the abyss, like the sneer of a demon god from the deepest hell, drowning out all the noise!
"Hahahaha! The dying dance of ants!"

The sound wave, carrying a black and red aura, shattered the ruins. On the top of the ruins where the halberd stood, a phantom image resembling a demon god gradually materialized.

The scarlet cloak billowed wildly in the turbulent energy flow, and dark, magma-like light seeped from the gaps in the heavy iron armor.

He stood on one foot on the halberd shaft, looking down at the masses. Two ghostly eyes beneath his mask swept over the fleeing crowd, as if watching a grand escape drama of ants!

In the blood moon, the moment when maniacal laughter once again tore through the night sky!
The ground across the entire battlefield suddenly cracked.

Countless dark hands reached out from the cracks, dragging the dying defense team members into the abyss. As the defense team members fell, the cruel laughter grew louder and louder, as if it were filled with a thousand years of pent-up resentment, as if it wanted to trample the entire era into the blood and mud for eternity in this apocalyptic scene...

........................

When Yamanaka Kazuo saw this scene, he felt goosebumps all over his body!

He had never seen such a desperate scene...

Then, he saw the two protagonists, facing the desperate situation of collapsing city walls and rampant beast tides, unleash a heart-stirring and tragic counterattack!

He saw Guan Yu (Xiao Yi), who had lost his martial spirit power, dragging his broken body and crashing into the leading crocodile beast with his flesh and blood. Even with his shoulder blade pierced by sharp teeth, he held the beast's claws tightly and roared for Zhao Yang to lead everyone to retreat...

Under the lens!
In darkness and under the blood moon!

He was covered in blood, but he refused to budge an inch!

The martial spirit core on his chest was covered with cracks, and its energy flickered weakly.

Facing the surging beast tide, his gaze was resolute, and he clenched his fist and pounded it into his heart! Each impact caused sparks to fly from his core, as if responding to his unyielding will!
Close-up shot!
The blood-stained transformation device trembled and stopped just inches from the heart, while the core of the martial soul actually sparked a tiny spark due to this resolute will!
On the other side, Zhao Yang (Zhao Zilong) witnessed the tragic death of his comrades. His eyes turned bloodshot as he pounded the Dragon Gallant Silver Spear until his finger bones shattered.

He tore open his shirt, revealing his body covered in old wounds. In the darkness and flickering light, after escorting the last person, he resolutely rushed towards the cracked city wall, towards the distant horde of beasts…

Just at this moment...

"Pfft!"

"Pfft!"

A ray of lightning finally shot up from the tip of the spear, and the long-lost power of the martial spirit finally ignited!
"Give it your all!"

"it is good!"

In the end, the two stood back to back amidst the mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

Guan Yu roared and pressed the broken fragments of the transformation device tightly against his chest.

Zhao Yang then slammed his lightning-summoning spear into the ground! The crackling electricity on his body intertwined with the lightning and fire erupting from the spear tip, and two roars echoed through the sky: "Martial Soul—Undying!!"

Under the crimson moonlight, Guan Yu's Green Dragon Crescent Blade materialized from the void, its blade wreathed in blood-red flames;
Zhao Yang's Dragon Gallant Silver Spear unleashed a burst of divine thunder from the heavens, and the fragments of his armor reformed into platinum dragon scales amidst the lightning.

As the two leaped into the air, their burning martial spirit cores exploded like the rising sun, shattering the eternal night!
………………

At that moment, the screening room erupted in cheers!
The children's eyes widened, and they could no longer sit still!

One by one, they jumped up from their seats, clenched their little fists, and waved them frantically at the screen!

"The Martial Spirit is indestructible!"

"The Martial Spirit is indestructible!"

A chorus of childish shouts erupted in the theater.

The boys in the back row got so excited that they stepped onto the seats and started wildly mimicking Zhao Yun's gun-wielding gestures, as if they wanted to rush into the screen to help.

"Transform! Transform now!"

"Hit them!"

"Wuhun!"

"Fusion Technique!"

Amidst the screams that rose and fell, the fluorescent light illuminated the flushed faces!
as if!

There really is a martial spirit core burning fiercely alongside the heroes!
