Whose personality mask's power comes from the heroic spirit?

"Ahem... Lord, you are obsessed." Zhuge Liang coughed a few times and warned him with a weak breath, "Those strongholds were originally taken from us by the demon army. They are not important to them."

"On the contrary, we had to leave some troops behind to defend the recaptured stronghold... The tactics of the demon army have undergone major changes." Zhuge Liang's face became paler.

"Could it be that Taira no Kiyomori sent puppets to take over the battlefield in Shuzhong?" Liu Bei muttered anxiously, "This is not good. We have been besieged here for too long and have lost contact with the outside world. We don't even know how many counselors Taira no Kiyomori controls..."

"It shouldn't be." Tokugawa Ieyasu shook his head with a strange expression and replied, "I heard from those demon soldiers that Taira no Kiyomori was beheaded by the 'punitive army' outside not long ago, and his head is still hanging on the wall of Jianye City."

"…What on earth is happening outside?" Liu Bei murmured in disbelief.

Chapter 79: Soul Calibur's guest character appears

——Liaodong——

Outside a building that resembled an arena, a demon snake was swinging its tail wantonly, using its body to collide with the demon soldiers who were disrespectful to it.

On the other side, at the entrance to the arena, a blonde woman dressed in white ancient Greek clothing, holding a round shield in one hand and a sword in the other, was fighting with the demon army while also worrying about the tail that might swing towards her at any time.

Several of her companions were still left in the arena behind her.

But those companions were all injured to some extent at the moment, and part of the demon army had already attacked, so they were unable to support her at the moment.

"We can't go on like this. We've been fighting for three days without sleep. Even if we're not exhausted to death by those monsters, we'll be crushed to death by that giant python." A woman in a tight suit and a ninja posture suddenly jumped out of the arena and landed beside the blonde woman to remind her.

"But we don't even know where we are now." The blonde woman frowned and sighed, "There are high mountains all around us, blocking our sight. Even if we want to leave, we don't know which direction to go."

"...I'm going to explore the way." The ninja-dressed woman wielded her two swords to kill the demon soldiers who rushed over. She looked at the blonde woman and said, "If you don't see me back within half an hour, just assume that I'm dead."

"Ms. Taki!" The blonde woman looked at the ninja worriedly, "Please come back safely."

The female ninja did not reply, but kicked away the demon soldier who was blocking the way, then ran quickly in a certain direction.

"Ha, that ninja finally decided to abandon you all and run away? I suggested to her that she should do so a long time ago." A woman with short lavender hair, who was scantily clad and whose clothes could not cover her body due to continuous fighting, walked out of the arena's gate and spoke in a joking tone.

"Ms. Ivy, please don't always make malicious assumptions about Miss Duoxi." The blonde woman retorted unhappily, then glanced at the woman holding a strange weapon that combined a sword and a whip behind her and complained, "If it weren't for Miss Duoxi, we would have been killed by those demons because of eating and drinking."

"Also, now that you're out, come and help!"

Ivy lowered her brows slightly, leaned against the wall, and swung the sword whip in her hand violently.

With one back and forth move, the necks of three demon soldiers were cut open.

"I would like to help, but unfortunately, I am seriously lacking in strength right now, and I feel like I might fall asleep at any moment." Ivy replied weakly.

"After killing all the demons that rushed in, the people inside were completely exhausted and unable to get up again." Ivy pointed to the arena behind her and reminded, "But you, what are your bodies made of? You have managed to hold on until now and still retain so much strength."

"...No, to be honest, I'm a little overloaded." The blonde shook her head, then jumped to avoid the sweep of the snake's tail tip. She glanced at the temporarily cleared space in front of her eyes and sighed, "But I can't rest yet. Cassandra is also in there."

"What a good sister." Ivy murmured weakly.

"I suggest you retreat quickly and close the gate of the arena, otherwise those demons will break in sooner or later." Ivy reminded, "Now that the big snake has helped to divert the attention of some demons, this is the best time."

The blonde nodded and backed up to Ivy's side, and the two of them worked together to close the door.

Leaning against the door, both of them collapsed on the ground.

"Ms. Ivy, do you know what exactly happened?" The blonde woman asked in a muffled voice with her head on her knees.

"Ha, who knows." Ivy curled her lips, "I just remember that I had just finished exercising at home and was going to take a bath and have a good rest, but as soon as I turned a corner, I inexplicably came to this arena... and ran into you guys who were entangled."

"But you, Sofitia Alexandra, I didn't expect that you are already married and even have a child." Ivy glanced at Sofitia and said.

"All this is to repel the evil spirits." The blonde woman, Sofitia, shrugged helplessly. "Originally, my daughter pestered me to wear this outfit that I had sealed away a long time ago. As a result, when I just changed and was about to go out to show my daughter, I found myself in this unknown place. Even Cassandra came with me."

"But it doesn't feel too bad to see you guys again after such a long time."

"Tsk, but I don't want to see you again." Ivy said unhappily, "It's never good to meet a bunch of you guys."

"By the way, didn't your family scold you for having a child out of wedlock?" Ivy looked at Sofitia and asked, "That little girl from Ming was almost drowned by her family."

"I'm fine. I just gave up the position of Saint to my sister, and the matter was over." Sofitia shook her head and replied, "Although my reputation has been somewhat damaged, this is not uncommon in Athens. If I hadn't been holding the title of 'Saint' at the time, I might have been able to avoid even the reprimand."

……

"...If I say this is a misunderstanding, can you let me go?" Duoxi, who had explored the way first, tried and found that he could not break free from the restraints behind him, so he looked up at the group of people in front of him and asked.

God knows why two young men with such superb ninja skills appeared here.

It would be easy to deal with if there was only one of them, but if two of them join forces, Duoxi would be doomed.

"Hey, what are you dreaming about?" Mitsuki squatted in front of Taki, picked up a branch and poked Taki's cheek, "Name, origin, what you want to do, why you attacked us, answer one by one, and don't play tricks, we have a super strong strong man on our side."

"Taki, I'm from the Demon Sealing Village in Japan. I just came here to explore the way. The sudden use of force was just a stress reaction." The female ninja who called herself Taki honestly recounted her situation one by one. "After all, I have been fighting those blue-skinned demons for the past few days."

"Could it be that as rumored, a strong man suddenly appeared in Liaodong to fight against the demon army?" Bu Lianshi looked at Duoxi and asked.

"Liaodong? Is this Liaodong?" Duoxi asked in surprise, "Because we have been besieged by demons and can't even communicate with each other, so we can't even tell where this place is... So, it's Liaodong..."

Chapter 80: Fighting without food or water for three days, how cruel

"Mom, are you okay?" Yan Leixia asked softly as he slumped down beside Chai Xianghua.

"...I've told you many times, don't call me mother..." Chai Xianghua sighed helplessly and said, "I'm still a young girl in the prime of life who has never been married...Let alone the General Yan you mentioned, even Qi Li Ke and I don't have any relationship beyond the normal scope of men and women...I have an illegitimate child, even more..."

Chai Xianghua wanted to say it was nonsense, but the girl who looked 60% to 70% like herself had confirmed her identity by saying things that only she knew. In addition, the acquaintances she met in this strange place were quite different from the maturity in her memory. So if nothing unexpected happened, Qi Li Ke, who was traveling with her, would really make her pregnant and leave without saying goodbye in the future...

What a fucking beating!

Why did I end up with the same fate as my mother?

I’ve decided that as long as I have the chance to go back to my hometown in the future, I will never go out again!

Just quit this job as Jinyiwei!

The Chai family cannot afford to have another woman who gets pregnant before marriage and brings disgrace to the family!

"Oh——" Chai Xianghua sighed deeply with a heavy heart.

"Ah - I can't take it anymore... I want to go home so badly..." On the other side, Talim lay on the floor tiles and moaned weakly, "Why did I encounter such bad luck?"

"Hehehehehe... Still want to go home? When I recover, I will kill you the first time!" The female killer named Tira looked at Talin with a strange smile.

"You can't succeed while I'm here... Ugh - my wrist is so sore!" Cassandra stretched out her hand with a sad face and tried to grab Tira, but her movements were hampered by muscle pain.

"I advise you to talk less, move less, and rest more." Amy, who was lying next to Cassandra, reminded her expressionlessly, "We have been fighting for three days without food or water... If we can't find a way out and just waste our energy, it won't be long before we are killed and eaten by those monsters."

"Or give birth to little monsters for them! Hehehehehe." Tila added with a strange smile.

Amy's face turned red with anger.

Is this something a 15 or 16-year-old child should know?

Born evil female killer!

"Hey, Bakugo sister, your sister and that exhibitionist are back... The female ninja is missing. Did she abandon you all and run away?" Tila tilted her neck to look in the direction of the arena gate, then complained to Cassandra.

"You are the one who is so arrogant!" Cassandra glared back in dissatisfaction. "Sister Duoxi is my sister's companion. It was Sister Duoxi who sent my sister back. That's why she wouldn't run away alone. She must have something important to deal with, so she didn't come back."

"... Hey, everyone, I feel like we're almost going to die." Talim raised her head, looked at the demon snake whose half body could be seen in the arena, and sighed, "I feel like those demons may not be enough for that giant python to have a full meal."

"...You talk too much, could you please shut up?" Xuehua narrowed her eyes and glared sharply at the lively girl group that was chattering non-stop.

"Don't be too harsh on them." Hilde said, leaning on the heavy armor he had taken off two days ago. "After all, life and death are unpredictable. We can only satisfy our desire to talk before we die."

"But why are we the only women here?" Cheng Mina, who was back to back with Hilde, asked, "Hmm - I'm so hungry. I don't want to talk anymore."

"It's hateful. The hatred has not yet disappeared. Why do I always encounter such weird things?" Veins bulged on Xuehua's forehead.

"boom--!"

Just when everyone was talking to each other without any tension, a beam of light suddenly shot out from a distance and blasted a hole in the huge snake's head.

"…What's going on! Has the god descended to earth?" Cassandra looked up in astonishment at the snake corpse that lost its head and began to fall towards the arena.

"Oh my god! It's falling towards us! Everybody! Get up quickly! Hide! Otherwise you will be crushed to death, or your internal organs will be shattered by the aftermath!" Chai Xianghua's face changed, she barely propped herself up, and helped Yan Leixia beside her up, and shouted to everyone.

"Tsk!" Tira jumped up from the floor immediately, then ran towards the gate of the arena without stopping.

"My goodness! That guy still has so much energy!" Talin was so tired that she couldn't even move a finger, so she could only continue to lie on the floor and watch everything happen.

"Damn it! I can't die yet!" Hilde and Cheng Mina helped each other and barely stood up from the ground.

Hilde didn't even care about his weapon, and he and Cheng Mina staggered to the side.

"Oh, I'm going to die." Amy, who was also out of strength, murmured expressionlessly as she looked at the snake corpse that was getting closer and closer.

"...I have no strength left." Cassandra tried several times but failed to stand up, and finally had no choice but to give up.

"Cassandra!" Her sister's voice came from a distance, which gave Cassandra some comfort in her loss.

Just when everyone was in a panic because of the falling of the huge snake corpse, the snake corpse was suddenly covered by black mist.

When the fog fell, everyone closed their eyes at the same time.

They slowly opened their eyes until nothing unusual happened to them.

A sturdy man who looked more like a demon than a demon was holding a sickle and looking at everyone present.

"Destroy it..." The words with the power to make people's hearts accelerate instantly rang in their ears, and even the few people who had despaired to the point of giving up suddenly changed their expressions.

"What an evil aura..." Cassandra looked at Yuan Luzhi with an angry face, "Damn it, I have no strength left... I can only rely on my sister."

At this moment, Sofitia was holding a sword and a shield, flying towards Yuan Luzhi.

"ha--!"

"Destroy it!" Yuan Luzhi gently waved the sickle in his hand, and a long purple-black miasma flew towards Sofitia.

Sofitia's face changed and she immediately put the round shield in front of her.

A light with a holy aura spread from the round shield to cover Sofitia's entire body.

But the light didn't last long under the purple-black miasma and was shattered.

But fortunately, it also offset a lot of miasma.

There were no obvious injuries on Sofitia's body when she flew backwards.

"It's not good, that guy..." Ivy looked at Yuan Luzhi's figure with a frown, "This is the first time I feel hopeless and helpless."

"Destroy it!" Sofitia flew out, but Yuan Luzhi had no intention of stopping.

The sense of urgency made him want to quickly kill all the lives present!

Chapter 81: They are rich and generous

"It's just in time."

Taiyi, who descended from the sky, took a quick look around and counted the people who were different from the demon army. After confirming that the number was the same as what Duoxi said and that each body was still moving, Taiyi breathed a sigh of relief.

They have been fighting non-stop for three days without any food or drink to recover, yet they have not lost any men in their confrontation with the demon army.

It’s hard to say how strong these newcomers are, but their endurance is among the best.

"Destroy it!" After seeing Taiyi, Yuan Luzhi, who was originally preparing to continue chasing Sofitia, immediately turned his sickle and chose to attack Taiyi who had just entered the scene.

The divine power that was already more than half in Taiyi's body was too dazzling, so dazzling that even without rationality, Yuan Luzhi would choose to attack this guy who was not of the same kind but had his own power first.

"It is you who should be destroyed!" Taichi raised the Doujikiri Yasunari in his hand, and lightning began to jump on the blade.

With more than half of Enryuchi's divine power, many of his abilities that were difficult to use before can now be used.

Magic power released (thunder)!

The Shadow Discipline Committee Chairman... Ugh!

Infinite martial arts training!

At just the moment when the blade and the sickle intersected, Taiyi's body was so fast that he instantly released four clones, attacking Yuan Luzhi from all directions with sword light.

With Taiyi's current strength, there is no need for him to use any fancy delaying tactics to deal with the single demon snake incarnation Yuan Luzhi.

The clash of weapons is enough to determine the winner.

"...Well done..." Taichi seemed to hear these words vaguely before Enryuchi fell down.
