Hum! Hum! Hum!
After Cao Cao's arrival, the sacrificial ceremony did not stop.
The Yellow Dragon of Providence spat out a few more streaks of golden light, which landed on the offerings on another altar.
The offerings there were all Dense Fog Crystals. After they were fused, they would have the ability to enter dreams.
Because of that, Ji Ye didn't have to set a requirement for the ritual to have combat ability in dreams. Instead, the requirement was changed to "good at fighting on the battlefield".
The offerings weren't ordinary either.
Because the Dense Fog Crystals that Ji Ye killed in the dream would automatically fuse with each other as long as they had the same attributes, the lowest level of the offerings was Extraordinary Rank-5.
Not only that, but there were even two Special quality offerings among them.
Together with the Extraordinary Rank-9 Commander Soul of Civilization, Ji Ye summoned a famous general from the Three Kingdoms.
["Invincible and invincible. Only death awaits those who break the formation!"]
As the test battlefield appeared above the altar, the raging "red dragon" was beheaded by a black saber, and a tall and slim general in black armor bathed in the scorching "dragon blood" that looked like flames revealed his cold and determined face.
[Gao Shun]
[Level: Special]
[Rarity: Quasi Boss]
[Description: In the last years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Lü Bu served as a commander. He was clean and dignified, and he didn't like to drink. The troops under his command were very elite, and they were known as the "Breaking Camp".
"Gao Shun!"
Facing Lü Bu's subordinate, Ji Ye didn't say a word, but he was an outstanding general.
Before Ji Ye could say anything, Cao Cao, who had just arrived, had a grim expression on his bearded face.
When a hero arrived in Dragon City, he would learn some information about the settlement.
Because of that, he knew that some people in Dragon City weren't on good terms with him.
For example, Zhao Yun, Zhou Yu, Ling Cao, Xiao Qiao, and the other heroes from the Wu and Shu Kingdoms, as well as Li Guang, who was loyal to the Han Dynasty and disliked a traitor like him.
But overall, it wasn't a big problem.
After all, there was no deep hatred between them.
The Bronze Sparrow Terrace was built to snatch Big Qiao Jin's house to hide a mistress. This was just a rumor that Zhuge Liang had spread to incite Zhou Yu. In real history, Cao Cao had built the Bronze Sparrow Terrace to be used for the gathering of scholars.
Because of that, Boss Cao and Zhou Yu, the current Dragon City Navy Commander, didn't have a grudge against each other's wives!
But Gao Shun was different.
According to the memories in his mind, he had killed Lu Bu, Chen Gong, and Gao Shun in Xiapi City, and hung their heads in public in Xu Du City.
Since he possessed this memory, then Gao Shun definitely possessed this memory as well. The two of them could be considered to be a true "blood feud"!
"This … is troublesome!"
Mr. Cao was a little flustered.
Gao Shun was only rated as Superior, while he was a Legendary. There seemed to be a big gap between them.
But in terms of one-on-one combat strength, he really might not be a match for Gao Shun.
That was because, just like what had been mentioned before, the evaluation of the Commander-level and above did not depend on individual combat power. The strength of the Legendary-level did not lie in combat power.
Of course, it didn't mean that Cao Cao was weak.
He was one of the eight commandants of the West Garden, and he was a chivalrous person when he was young.
He once snuck into the residence of Zhang Rang, one of the ten servants. When he was discovered and chased, he fought back with his halberd and escaped by jumping over the wall. He even killed dozens of soldiers in Yangzhou with his sword!
It was safe to say that Cao Cao's combat strength was the best among all the emperors in ancient times.
However, compared to Gao Shun, who was Lu Bu's best general at ambushing enemies, he was still at a disadvantage.
Besides, Cao Cao was old in ancient times, but Gao Shun was in the prime of his life.
Jie Wei, the only person in Dragon City who belonged to Cao Wei's side, wasn't in Dragon City at all. Instead, he was guarding against Old Demon Black Mountain in Guobei County!
"General Gao, I've heard a lot about you. You're even more impressive than the rumors say!"
However, although his heart was pounding, Cao Cao didn't say anything. Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Cao Cao's expression did not change at all. Instead, he narrowed his eyes into a line and stroked his beard as he sighed with emotion.
He didn't care about anything else.
He wanted to make it clear that he hadn't "killed" Cao Cao before he arrived, in case Cao Cao attacked him on impulse!
"Let bygones be bygones!"
However, Cao Cao was overthinking things.
Gao Shun stared at Cao Cao in silence for a while before he said, "You're right.
Gao Shun didn't hate Cao Cao.
When two armies fought, the winner took all. It was unavoidable, and Cao Cao couldn't blame anyone else.
In fact, what Cao Cao didn't know was that Gao Shun arrived at the same time as Li Guang's death. It meant that Gao Shun had experienced the ups and downs of his life, and he had more feelings than ordinary heroes.
Because of that, compared to Cao Cao, Gao Shun was thinking about Lu Bu more.
As the famous commander of the Rank-breaking Camp, Gao Shun was extremely loyal to Lu Bu.
However, even though Lü Bu knew of their loyalty, he could not use them. Even the 'Rank-breaking Barracks', an army that he had personally trained, was usually handed over to his brother-in-law, Wei Xu, to command. Only when it was time for battle would he let Gao Shun lead this army to 'break the enemy'.
Even when Cao Cao's army besieged Xiapi, Gao Shun was worried that Gao Shun would rebel, so he refused Chen Gong's suggestion to let him guard the main city.
In the end, it was Wei Xu and the others who rebelled.
Even so, faced with Cao Cao's persuasion, Gao Shun still died with Lu Bu.
"Gao Shun is dead, and I've repaid General Lu's kindness. Now, there's only the human Gao Shun of Dragon City, not the Gao Shun of Lu Bu's army! "
Gao Shun said in a low voice as he looked at Ji Ye, expressing his stance.
Humans were born in the chaotic times of the Three Kingdoms. To fight for the world and to survive, humans had to fight and kill each other.
But in the Land of Inheritance, humans faced other alien races, so internal conflicts should be put aside.
Towards this point, Gao Shun clearly saw through it very clearly!
"With Chief Cao and Commander Gao, the alien races in Dragon City will definitely be able to witness the might of the human race."
Ji Ye naturally agreed with Gao Shun's thoughts and said with a smile.
The only regretful thing was that the sacrificial ritual for the other "Special" quality offering had actually failed.
Mainly because of the lack of time, Ji Ye wasn't able to further fuse the offering and improve its quality. It was only rated as "Excellent". The hero who took part in the test was defeated by a gigantic mammoth in the process of challenging someone of a higher level!
However, the other dozen or so Extraordinary offerings all succeeded.
"He Chong of the Tiger Leopard Cavalry greets the City Master!"
"Lin Ping of the Tiger Leopard Cavalry greets the City Master!"
"Zhang Lei of the Rank-breaking Camp greets the City Master!"
"Sun Qi of the Rank-breaking Camp greets the City Master!"
Moreover, perhaps because of Cao Cao and Gao Shun, two officers of the Tiger Leopard Cavalry and five soldiers of the Rank-breaking Camp were summoned this time.
Although there weren't many of them, they were all Extraordinary Rank-7 and above, and they were all rated as Excellent Commanders!
The Tiger Leopard Cavalry only had about five thousand members, and they were all selected based on the standard of a hundred generals. In the Land of Inheritance, even the most common Tiger Leopard Cavalry was a Quasi-Commander.
This ratio even exceeded that of the Yue Army, whose members were all rated as Elite.
Of course, it was mainly because the Yue Army in Dragon City belonged to the "Romance" series. For example, the Beiwei Army, which was the most elite of the Yue Army and was theoretically as powerful as the Tiger Leopard Cavalry, had never come to Dragon City.
It was very likely that the Dragon City currently lacked a top-notch general that truly belonged to the Yue Family Army!
However, since Cao Cao was already here, Ji Ye believed that Yue Fei wouldn't be too far away.
"Rumble!"
As if stimulated by the magnificent scene when Cao Cao was summoned, the Dense Fog around Dragon City surged even more violently, and the attacks became even more violent.
All kinds of puppet creatures hiding in the fog began to attack Dragon City's defense line without caring about anything else. Even with the enhancement of Dragon City's power of providence, the Five Direction Feng Shui Formation was a little unstable!
"Chief Cao, Commander Gao, let's' kill 'the Dense Fog race together."
