Chapter 154: Capturing Du Hu
Du Hu is a level 60 red-sealed Hanlin, and his strength completely crushes Situ Mingzhu, a level 48 gold-sealed Jinshi.
The moment the life beasts of both sides collided, Situ Mingzhu's life beast suffered a fatal blow.
"唳"
The level 60 Thunder Eagle opened its mouth and spit out a thick bolt of lightning.
The Thunder-Patterned Tiger, relying on its status as a thunder-type beast, took the initiative to step forward to resist.
However, it never expected that under the lightning, its originally blue fur instantly turned into a charred black, and it was foaming at the mouth due to the lightning.
That is to say, the attributes are the same. If it were any other beast, I'm afraid the fate would be even worse.
Compared to the Thunder Tiger, the fate of other beasts is equally miserable.
The manticore was stabbed all over by the porcupine, and its body was covered with densely packed long, hard needles.
More importantly, these long needles are poisonous and can cause death if not treated in time.
The harpy's opponent is a Phoenix-Feathered Pheasant, a fire-attributed beast.
It is rumored that this beast has some phoenix blood in its body. It is hard to verify whether this is true or not, but its fire attack is indeed extremely powerful.
In just a few seconds, the harpy was almost roasted by the flames of the Phoenix-Feathered Pheasant.
If Situ Mingzhu hadn't seen the situation was not good and quickly summoned it back to the book of fate, he would have been preparing to look for a new fate beast.
The one with the best ending among Situ Mingzhu's zodiac beasts was the Holy Light Unicorn, whose opponent was a six-armed demon ape.
Although it is no match for the Six-Armed Demon Ape, it is the only life beast that has not lost its combat effectiveness thanks to its own light recovery ability.
As for the newly acquired Qingluoyi, Situ Mingzhu did not summon it. As it had just become a life beast, it was not even qualified to be cannon fodder.
At this critical moment, Lu Ming led his life beast into the battlefield.
A Le naturally followed closely behind and sent his life beast to join the battle.
If you can't defeat Du Hu's beast alone, then join forces to besiege it.
After spending a long time together, the two of them became very familiar with each other's life beasts. They quickly completed a combination and cooperated to fight against Du Hu's life beast.
Lu Ming went straight to Du Hu, but was stopped by the last beast beside him, the Iron-bone Winged Snake.
Edge of the battlefield
"Sir, should we intervene?" a captain of the imperial guards asked the wealthy middle-aged man beside him.
The one commanding the battle here was the commander of the Imperial Guards, Commander Han, he surveyed the battlefield and spoke softly.
"Since His Majesty the Seventh Prince has taken action, let's leave Du Hu to them."
"Go and kill everyone else in the house. Remember, don't leave any of them alive!"
"As ordered!"
A large number of imperial guards rushed into the general's mansion and started a bloody massacre.
Commander Han continued to observe the battle at the edge of the battlefield, a look of surprise on his face.
"I didn't expect that the two people Your Highness knew were both masters."
Du Hu looked at the entire battlefield and his heart sank.
Originally, he wanted to quickly capture Situ Mingzhu alive and win a chance of survival.
But Lu Ming and A Le's participation in the battle frustrated his plan. He didn't expect that the two Jinshi-level fortune-tellers not only blocked his life beast, but even showed signs of counterattacking!
Among all the battles between life beasts, the silver-backed mantises were the first to end the fight.
The Silverback Mantis teamed up with the Evil Fire Demon Tiger and the Two-Headed Demon Wolf to fight against Du Hu's other beast, the Iron Lion Beast.
Iron Lion Beast is a gold-type beast that can transform its entire body into steel skin and has extremely strong defense, but it had the misfortune of encountering Silverback Mantis and the others.
The Silverback Mantis and the Two-Headed Demon Wolf were responsible for restraining the enemy, while the Evil Fire Demon Tiger was calmly looking for an opportunity to fight.
It soon found an opportunity and, while the Iron Lion Beast was distracted by the Silverback Mantis and the others, it launched a surprise attack from behind.
"Roar"
The Evil Fire Demon Tiger bit the Iron Lion Beast on the back, but unfortunately the Iron Lion Beast's body was as hard as steel, and the Evil Fire Demon Tiger couldn't break through its defense at all.
When the Iron Lion Beast sensed the Evil Fire Demon Tiger's sneak attack, it looked disdainful.
It didn't take it seriously and was quite confident in its own defense.
He didn't even dodge when he was attacked, allowing the evil fire tiger to bite him.
Just as it was scorning this, a terrible pain exploded in its brain.
"Ow"
A shrill scream sounded.
The Iron Lion Beast rolled over and over on the ground in agony, trying to reduce the pain, but it was of no use.
The Evil Fire Demon Tiger's killing move is not its mouth full of steel teeth, but the green flame that can burn the soul.
If the Iron Lion Beast had been careful before, it wouldn't have ended up like this. Unfortunately, it was careless.
After a few seconds, Iron Lion Beast was completely dead.
"Iron Lion Beast!"
Du Hu looked at the corpse of Iron Lion Beast in shock and anger. He didn't expect that the first to fall would be the Iron Lion Beast with the strongest defense, which made him feel even more uneasy.
He looked around, but found that he was surrounded by the imperial guards and there was no way to escape.
"Damn it, am I really going to die here today?"
Just as Du Hu was panicking, a stone sculpture fell from mid-air.
"boom"
The petrified Thunder Eagle was smashed to pieces.
Du Hu looked at the broken stone sculptures on the ground, suddenly raised his head, and saw the evil eyes hanging high in the sky.
"It's the evil eye!"
There was an astonishing hatred in Du Hu's eyes.
He had already recognized that this pair of evil eyes was the same one that had ruined his plan in Huangsha City.
Du Hu glared at Lu Ming who was fighting with the Iron Winged Snake and asked, "It was you who ruined my plan in Huangsha City?"
"clang"
The Blue Star Sword slashed at the Iron-Bone Winged Snake, sparks flew, and it temporarily retreated.
Lu Ming looked at the angry Du Hu and sneered, "Yes, it's me!"
Upon hearing Lu Ming's admission with his own ears, Du Hu's anger instantly erupted.
"I want you to die!"
"Kill him for me!"
In order to kill Lu Ming, Du Hu even mobilized other life beasts that were fighting.
Unfortunately, his wish could not be realized. The other beasts were now busy with their own affairs and could not execute his orders at all.
With the deaths of Iron Lion Beast and Thunder Eagle, Phoenix-Feathered Pheasant, Ten Thousand Needle Porcupine, and Six-Armed Demon Ape also entered the countdown to death.
Under the siege of many life beasts, they died one by one.
In less than a minute, the only life beast left of Du Hu was the Iron-Bone Winged Snake.
"Roar"
The three-eyed monkey roared and wielded an iron rod to take over Lu Ming's battle against the iron-boned winged snake.
The third eye on the forehead flashed, and the Iron-Bone Winged Snake froze on the spot.
"woo"
The iron rod smashed down on his head with terrifying force.
"boom"
The Iron Winged Snake was smashed into the ground by a stick, and its iron bones turned into a pile of mud.
Lu Ming slowly walked towards Du Hu: "Can you still kill me now?"
Du Hu's face darkened completely. He knew he would lose today, but he didn't expect to be defeated by two Jinshi-level fortune tellers.
Seeing Du Hu remained silent, Lu Ming slowly raised the sword in his hand, and his murderous intent grew stronger.
"Today, I will avenge Er Niang and all the villagers!"
Just when Lu Ming was about to kill Du Hu, a loud shout came from behind him.
"Wait a minute."
Commander Han walked over quickly.
"You can't kill him. Du Hu needs to be handed over to the king for disposal."
Lu Ming frowned slightly: "I caught him."
"That won't work either. He is a serious criminal of treason and must be dealt with by the king."
Du Hu's mouth corners slightly raised: "That's right, you can't kill me, Situ Jiannan must deal with me."
"Ha ha ha ha"
Du Hu laughed wildly at this time: "To tell you the truth, Situ Jiannan doesn't dare to kill me!"
