Volume 2: The King's Way Chapter 138: Heavenly Destiny Black Bird
"kindness?"
Lu Bu in the Jinling Governor's Mansion seemed to have noticed something and suddenly looked towards the northwest.
"Godfather, what's wrong?" Bai Tu asked in a flattering manner.
After all, he was very strong before and shouted "Killing one man is like killing my father" - in order to please Lu Bu these days, Bai Tu even took the initiative to "do morning exercises" with Lu Bu every day.
Lu Bu had long wanted to make this suggestion to Bai Tu. Although Bai Tu normally would not go to the front line in person, in such troubled times, a ruler would definitely have to lead his troops in person.
Firstly, it can avoid mutual constraints among other generals, or between military generals and local officials; secondly, in some large-scale battles, the ruler can enhance and consolidate his own prestige by personally serving as the commander-in-chief.
Just like during the Battle of Red Cliffs, why did Cao Cao insist on being the commander-in-chief himself?
Because he was sure of victory, he was even worried that if someone else completed the final battle to unify the world, it would create a situation where the success would shock the lord. Even if it was a commander he trusted, after this battle, he would have no more power and would be difficult to use again.
In a major battle like this, any leader born in troubled times would not be absent...
Therefore, we must at least upgrade the armor level to gilded and equip it with a good engine, so that we can have a better guarantee of safety...
It's just that Lu Bu had always known Bai Tu's temperament, and he felt a little distressed that he had to take time out for morning exercises every morning. Until now, Bai Tu took the initiative to bring it up, and Lu Bu was also a little jealous of the previous slogan, so... he instructed Lu Lingqi to wake up Bai Tu half an hour after she started her morning exercises every day!
It's not even the end of the first lunar month yet, and although we're doing morning exercises, it's actually still completely dark outside.
"This aura is... Dian Wei? Could it be that the previous alliance between Cao and A-Man was a joke on us? This is not Yuan Shu's territory..." Lu Bu muttered.
At the dawn, just as the light was shining on the martial arts field of the governor's mansion, Lu Bu felt a familiar breath coming from the northwest... no, it should be said that there was a blooming of energy!
No matter how fierce the fighting in Wancheng was, its aura would not be transmitted to Jinling thousands of miles away. However, as an existence that surpassed the gold and jade armor, it would be able to sense the breakthrough of the same kind in terms of aura.
"What Dian Wei? Dian Wei is here?" Bai Tu asked puzzledly.
"No, it should be Dian Wei's breakthrough... Interesting." Lu Bu curled the corners of his mouth with some interest.
"Breakthrough? Nearby?" Bai Tu still didn't understand.
"It should be very far. However, breaking through the gold and jade is also breaking through the limitations of the military token. Unlike the previous promotion, it will resonate with... many indescribable external forces." Lu Bu's description was also vague.
Now Bai Tu has already understood that Lu Bu is not as simple as the golden and jade armor. Lu Bu has never used his full strength before!
"Indescribable external force? Above the gold and jade...what kind of armor is it?" Bai Tu asked.
"It's not armor anymore... It's hard to describe, so I'll just show it to you." Lu Bu was also intrigued by the breakthrough aura in the distance.
Just like before, Lu Bu did not take out the military token, but a black and red black bird tattoo appeared on his back...
The black body and the crimson flame-like feathers; ordinary clothes and armor cannot block the glow of the tattoo.
And this time Bai Tu could see clearly that it was not just a "tattoo". The black bird seemed to have life, and its wings were slowly fluttering.
Then the flames on the black bird suddenly erupted and enveloped Lu Bu's entire body. The black and red flames shot out more than three meters high, as if to burn him to ashes.
However, in the next moment, the flames gradually subsided, revealing... Lu Bu's heroic figure, which was already more than three meters tall!
That’s right, it’s not a mecha that is more than three meters tall, but a Lu Bu that is more than three meters tall!
It was completely different from the previous golden and jade armor. If it was scaled down, Lu Bu now looked like he was wearing red armor, holding a halberd that was slightly taller than himself, and two long feathers on his head...
At the same time, there is a pair of huge black wings with black and red flames !
With a height of over three meters, it is hard to say that he is a human, but at the same time... Bai Tu did not see any traces of "high technology" on Lu Bu.
But... if it was flesh and blood, Bai Tu looked carefully and found that Lu Bu's entire body, whether it was his armor or his skin, seemed to be emitting a faint fluorescence!
Moreover, Lu Bu's expression was strangely cold, and his eyeballs were no longer visible. Instead, he could only see a blazing white light from his eyes. With his completely stern face, his expression looked very scary...
"This, this is above the gold and jade? It doesn't look like armor at all!" Bai Tu said half in surprise and half to change the subject.
Bai Tu also looked scared by the look on his foster father's face at this time...
Because there was no opponent and Bai Tu did not have the vision in this area, Lu Bu did not demonstrate his strength in this state and simply "withdrawn his magical powers".
This time Bai Tu could see clearly that the shell of "Lü Bu" had turned into a black and red flame, and as the flames dispersed, they outlined the image of a black bird, whose wings were exactly Lü Bu's wings. Then the black bird curled up and returned to Lü Bu's back...
"That's right. After completely breaking through the limitations of the armor and reaching this step, you no longer have the 'military token'. You can feel that your strength is no longer enhanced by the armor, but a kind of external force...an indescribable force." Lu Bu said.
"I may never feel it." Bai Tu shrugged.
Bai Tu's requirement for himself is just to take advantage of the "troubled times" and reach the level of gilded armor. Otherwise, if it is just wooden and stone armor, no matter how valuable the "engine" trained by the famous horse is, it will not produce much effect!
However, Bai Tu's curiosity about gold and jade, or the armor system and the city princess system, has not diminished because of his own "noviceness".
Unknown forces from the outside world? By breaking through the realm above the gold and jade armor, humans can communicate with things like "the energy of heaven and earth" and "spiritual energy"?
Why did the high-tech mecha style suddenly slide into the high-tech martial arts direction?
Bai Tu couldn't understand Cheng Ji's existence, nor could he understand the mecha, nor could he understand Lv Bu's state just now, which seemed like a god descending from heaven. He could only shake his head and throw away the messy thoughts. He would take care of the present first. After morning exercise, he would go to see how Jin Ling Ji was doing...
However, he found Lu Bu, looking towards the northwest again, and said in a somewhat strange tone: "The transformation was successful? Although it is not complete yet... Could it be because of me?"
"Godfather, what's wrong?" Bai Tu asked puzzledly.
"Just now, it seems that we accidentally helped Cao Aman's subordinate Da Heitan..." Lu Bu also understood a little.
The beings that transcend the gold and jade armor cannot always sense each other. Only when they are promoted will they produce a resonance of qi with other equal beings.
However, when Lu Bu showed his strength before, it seemed to have touched Dian Wei...
The transformation of Dian Wei that Lu Bu initially felt was merely equivalent to the breakthrough he made when he fought the three heroes in front of Hulao Pass - just the first step of the transformation.
Unexpectedly, Lu Bu's aura triggered Dian Wei's transformation...
"Could it be because of the Heavenly Destiny Bird?" Lu Bu had a vague guess.
The black bird of destiny fell and gave birth to the Shang Dynasty...
