The God of the Three Kingdoms
Chapter 308 - Powerful Systems
From the moment they left the city, they discovered their weaknesses through their obviously amused expressions and began to calculate step by step.
The girl's appearance was so commonplace in the eyes of their proud and overwhelming generals that they didn't even realize that the girl who gave them the sachet came from a city where their reputation was not high at all.
Killing Huang Zu in the field, sabotaging his opponent's entire plan, and breaking through in the camp to win the battle were strictly military secrets, which meant that not too many people knew about them, so how could they have any admirers in Xuchang?
So, if Wu Qi and the others were cautious enough, they could have discovered this conspiracy that was now tantamount to extermination for them the moment they left the city.
But it was too late to say anything now, as they were now at the mercy of others without any ability to resist.
Poison was not new to Wu Qi, but he had never seen a poison that could paralyze even the flesh of a saint-level martial artist, but at the same time, as one of those who had experienced it, he knew exactly how powerful it was.
Strictly speaking, this was not a particularly powerful poison, and really powerful toxins often had extremely difficult to detect characteristics.
But even so, Wu Qi and the others were still hit!
If he could do it again, Wu Qi believes that he would have let himself be reduced to such a state, much less let a few such minions wantonly humiliate him!
The ropes on the horse had been loosened, and both Wu Qi and Lin Xiaodao were rudely pushed from their horses to the ground, the smell of turf was not so wonderful for Wu Qi, but he was powerless to stop it from happening.
Horses are horses after all, not people, and some BMWs can indeed perform the task of protecting their masters at certain moments, but now they had inhaled the unknown toxin, and their masters had fallen one after another, so they couldn't make any shocking moves.
It seems that the mysterious people had no intention of taking Lin Xiaodagger and the others out of this strange forest, so they simply piled up the four of them and left them alone.
But yes, this dense forest might have been a means to get rid of them, so it was better to settle the matter here rather than elsewhere.
The eldest sister of the mysterious man seemed to have some kind of grudge against Lin Xiaodie, but she was not recognized by Lin Xiaodie even though she was wearing a black scarf.
The system only told him that there was an ambush, but it also warned him of the floating state of the people in the city.
Drifting? Lin Xiaodao originally thought it was impossible, right? But now he felt that the system was right, and that although the spicy chicken system was usually equivalent to the exclusive bank of official Lin, it seemed to be indispensable at critical moments!
When the system told him that someone was trying to kill them, Lin Xiaodao subconsciously thought that he should go back to his hometown first.
However, the system promptly gave him an extremely detailed plan.
It was clear that if there was just a slight difference in the various steps on the plan, he would have to say goodbye to the three incredibly powerful generals under his command, but Lin Xiaodao still did what it said!
It was his decision to accept the sachets, and it was also because of him that Wu Qi and the others took them without any calculations, after all, they didn't find anything detrimental in their sachets when they took them.
It was indeed unethical to deliberately pick a fight with Huang Zhong and expose his wounds, but Lin Xiaodao also wanted to know how much of an impact Huang Shu's incident had had on Huang Zhong.
As for Zhao Yun and Wu Qi, they didn't really need him to do anything.
Wu Qi was indeed a bit drifting, and with his blind Ji'er leading the way, Wu Qi didn't even react when he didn't see anyone for three days in a row, not even when the chirping of birds and cicadas in the forest gradually disappeared!
Humility leads to progress, pride leads to lagging behind.
Lin Xiaodao himself had suffered this loss.
In the beginning, in the real world, if he didn't have a system to rely on, so he was floating in his heart, how could he easily be found at the address and almost die there?
And now, Wu Qi is in absolute danger because of this, and this is also his lesson to Wu Qi? Lin Xiaodao was a little proud of himself, and the ancestors wanted him to teach them a lesson, which was exciting.
On the contrary, Lin Xiaodao was impressed by Zhao Yun's performance.
Don't forget, Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong both had poisonous attacks almost at the same time! However, a toxin that affects the timing of its poisoning because of the enemy's constitution, no one can control the timing of its poisoning with such precision!
Moreover, others knew that Zhao Yun was a Saint-level general like Huang Zhong, but Lin Xiaodao knew very well that Zhao Yun's strength was barely enough, but his rank was still a fraction short.
A slight grade means that Zhao Yun's strength is actually inferior to Huang Zhong's, but the difference in their poisoning times is not much? There are no ghosts in it, and Lin Xiaodao absolutely does not believe it!
As for why Zhao Yun faked poisoning like he did, he either wanted to draw out the people behind the scenes like he did, or else how would Lin Xiaodao know what he was thinking, he wasn't the roundworm in Zhao Yun's stomach.
Zhao Yun was indeed pretending to be poisoned because he wanted to consolidate his strength, so Zhao Yun, who was the most focused of the four, was instead the biggest breakthrough point at the beginning, which is why he didn't have any doubts about his surroundings even after three days.
But it was only after Lin Xiaodao was hit by the arrow that he realized what kind of situation they had all gotten into!
He didn't inhale much of the poisonous powder because he was suddenly awakened and subconsciously held his breath, which is the calm state of mind a general should have when encountering an emergency, but Huang Zhong, because of what happened to Huang Shu and Lin Xiaodao's arrow, his anger prevailed!
Holding one's breath is the most important thing to do when spreading one's senses and exploring one's surroundings, but at that time, Huang Zhong only remembered to catch the bandits who dared to harm his lord, and he didn't remember anything that should have been engraved in his subconscious.
Wu Qi's analysis is correct, the poisonous powder is not that clever, because it doesn't work just by holding your breath!
But this kind of consciousness of holding one's breath is only understood by warriors with hundreds of battles under their belts, like Lin Xiaodao, who is not the beloved baby of his own family, which will have this kind of consciousness? So, for them, it would be a miracle if they couldn't hit such a poisonous powder.
This group of mysterious people had a great and perfect plan, but unfortunately, they lost in what was completely unknown to them but almost common sense to someone like Zhao Yun.
