The restoration of the Han Dynasty began with the Horus Rebellion.

Chapter 71 "Angron" Type Demon Engine

Chapter 72 "Angron" Type Demon Engine

When Sun Qian opened his eyes again, the first thing he saw was Liu Bei, who was approaching menacingly, wielding two sharp blades.

"Demon! How dare you harm my brother! Liu Bei will repay you with blood and teeth!"

Does this mean I've failed?

Just as Sun Qian was startled and wanted to retaliate with the Demon Claw, he felt his right arm was unexpectedly light, but also unexpectedly weak.

Demonic power—

Or rather, chaotic energy.

At this point, none of that remained in Sun Qian.

Just then, Liu Bei arrived in front of Sun Qian. He leaped up and raised his double blades with imposing momentum. But Sun Qian immediately realized that Liu Bei had not noticed him. His gaze was fixed on the top of his head.

Clang!

The twin swords seemed to collide with something hard, producing a pleasant metallic clang.

When Sun Qian turned his head, he could only see the enormous body, which was over six meters tall, and feel a terrifying aura that made him feel suffocated.

"Idiot, what are you still doing here! Get out of the way!!"

A figure appeared from the side and, without saying a word, forcefully pushed Sun Qian away.

Sun Qian rolled on the ground several times before stopping. After being thrown around and feeling completely disoriented, he managed to stand up, only to find a scene that resembled a hellish battlefield.

Clearly, this was no longer the bridge of the Great Tyrant, but a world filled with blood red—blood red wilderness, blood red towering city walls, and even the sky was shrouded in blood red.

In addition to blood red, all that could be seen was white, such as the scattered white bones on the ground and the warriors wearing white power armor.

However, their power armor has gradually been stained with blood, becoming the basic color scheme of this world.

The cause of all this was the giant who was fighting Liu Bei.

If this monster can still be called a "human".

It was a humanoid creature over six meters tall, with rough, blood-red skin all over its body, and limbs that resembled those of a wild beast. These features were somewhat similar to the Samus entity that Sun Qian had seen.

However, unlike others, he was wearing extremely heavy armor, similar to a variant of power armor that had been twisted by chaos. He had a pair of black bat wings that blotted out the sky on his back, and an extremely thick tail that kept waving behind his waist.

Coupled with the greatsword and axe he held in his hands, and the dense clusters of butcher's nails on his hideous head, this iconic image immediately struck Sun Qian as...

Demon Prince Angron?

However, Sun Qian immediately noticed something unusual. Upon closer inspection, he discovered that the monster's wings and tail were not made of flesh and blood, but rather of mechanical structures such as metal pipes, cables, and gears. Moreover, its eyes shone with a cold light similar to electronic indicator lights.

But none of this seemed to reduce his destructive power at all.

As the demon swung the giant weapon held in its claws, each attack cracked the ground and kicked up a cloud of dust. Liu Bei was forced to retreat after only a few rounds, then coughed up blood and knelt on the ground.

But this was already an extraordinary achievement, because when the monster tried to press its advantage, hundreds... thousands? or even tens of thousands of World Devourer warriors surged towards it like a tidal wave.

However, they could hardly even slow down the demon's movements. Every attack from the demon cut them down like wheat. Countless warriors were cut in half or decapitated, their blood, flesh, and limbs flying into the air before falling like a torrential rain.

"Damn it... is there really no other way?"

At that moment, Sun Qian heard a head that had fallen beside him speaking. Judging from the voice, it seemed to be the person who had pushed him away earlier.

The corpse is talking.

However, Sun Qian was not surprised at all, after all, this was not the first time he had entered the realm of consciousness.

In this place, as long as the spirit itself does not collapse, there will be no real death.

"So you've been fighting this demon here the whole time?"

Sun Qian picked up the head; at this point, there was no point in being polite or courteous.

"What do you mean 'you all'? Aren't you one too—wait, who are you? I've never seen you before!!"

"I am Sun Qian, a sergeant of the Shadowmoon Wolf, and now the captain of the Great Tyrant."

Upon hearing Sun Qian's self-introduction, the World Devourer who had left behind a poem instantly widened his eyes.

But his eyes clearly revealed pain and despair.

"So even you've had the Butcher's Nail implanted? Not just Liu Bei, we've all been implicated."

"Wake up. I'm not here to die, but it's dangerous if you don't explain the situation to me soon."

After Sun Qian's reminder, the World Devourer warrior seemed to calm down a bit.

"I am Kanuja, the centurion of the World Eater. As you said, our consciousness suddenly entered this realm after we boarded the Great Tyrant... Together with Liu Xuande, we were forced into an endless battle with our father, this abominable monster."

'

Sun Qian frowned slightly. Judging from the current situation, it was more of a massacre than a fight.

As if sensing Sun Qian's thoughts, Kanuja showed a bitter expression.

"In fact, we had a slight advantage at the beginning. Although we were no match for Father in a one-on-one fight, under Lord Liu Xuande's command, we used the fact that we could revive in this area to defeat him several times by surrounding him... and each time we could clearly feel him weakening. Just when we thought we could win by endurance, he suddenly turned into this powerful and hopeless state."

Why is that?

Sun Qian couldn't help but look away guiltily.

Obviously, this is his own.

The trouble stemmed from "giving" all the chaotic energy associated with [Demon Lu Bu] to the enemy.

But there was nothing that could be done about it. After all, the situation outside was literally a combination of internal and external troubles. There was only one chance to suppress the rampaging Liu Bei, and both the World Eaters and Horus were eyeing them covetously.

But the situation here also seems hopeless. The demon has become so powerful after absorbing the chaotic energy, and unlike the last time when they fought Samus, this time Sun Qian is not fighting on his home turf.

Furthermore, his trump card, [Demon Lu Bu], is temporarily unavailable, and he only has... cards left in his hand.

"Quickly, throw me back to the battlefield! Otherwise, Liu Bei is our only hope of injuring the demon. We must buy him as much time as possible!"

Hearing Kanuja's urgent and anxious voice, Sun Qian looked towards the battlefield and saw that the demon had broken through the obstruction of tens of thousands of World Devourers and was charging towards Liu Xuande with a clear objective.

Liu Bei gritted his teeth and stood up again, his eyes burning with indomitable fighting spirit as he raised his twin swords.

Unyielding and never giving up.

This is not some illusory imperial glory, but the true power of an emperor!

and many more.

Sun Qian seemed to have thought of something and immediately looked into the system panel.

As expected, Liu Bei and the others were of normal consciousness in this area.

The cards that had previously turned gray have regained their shine!

In that instant, all the previous intelligence connected in his mind—Sun Qian finally saw the possibility of victory!
