Chapter 68, Champion Showdown (Part 1)

PS. It will be on the shelves tomorrow, please give me a lot of porcelain, huh huh~

The front line was fragmented, and the Nord soldiers, who could no longer withstand the pressure, were still resisting. The conscripts and militiamen who had been conscripted had already been defeated, and they rushed to flee in all directions.

"Withdraw! Withdraw!" Walnut Knight Nicolai signaled the soldiers to retreat. He personally led the great swordsmen to cut off the rear. There were only forty or so elite Nord swordsmen left, and they held on to their positions in despair. Constantly destroying the barbarian soldiers who wanted to pursue.

It was their sacrifice that bought enough time for the retreating Nord soldiers, and the soldiers who successfully retreated into the city were working hard to reorganize the defense line.

When the mace fell, a barbarian soldier's head exploded, and the splashed brains stuck to Niklai's armor, but the Walnut Knight didn't care that much, he immediately met the next enemy, raised his shield to block the oncoming attack The blade of the ax came, and the mace slammed on the head of the next barbarian marauder, and the bright red liquid was left from the inside of his helmet amidst the screams of the barbarian soldiers. It must not be watermelon juice.

At this moment, the barbarian riders rushed forward, and the barbarian chief rode into the battlefield on a huge white bear, and the big swordsmen who blocked him were torn apart in front of Bireg like rags, "Grinding "Bear of Pressure" raised his ax and fell, and one soldier after another was torn in half in front of him. The thin army formation could not provide cover for the Walnut Knight, and the barbarian chief quickly approached the Walnut Knight himself.

"Mr. Nikolai! Run away! We will cover you!" A great swordsman shouted desperately, but he was soon hit by the sledgehammer of the barbarian champion warrior Culorin, and his life and death were unknown.

"No, this is also... one of the plans." Nikolai urged his horses to face the barbarian chief himself.

At the moment of the confrontation, the Walnut Knight managed to avoid the oncoming ax blade, but his mace was also easily bounced off by the barbarian chief. Nikolai immediately turned his horse and took out the sword from his waist. He picked up a short gun.

"Bang!" The white bear under Bireg let out a mournful cry, and it was hit in the shoulder by a projectile.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" The barbarian chief was furious, and he urged his white bear to rush towards the walnut knight like crazy.

The battle was over in a few seconds. Under Bireg's amazing wrist strength, Nikolai's iron shield was blown away by the big axe, and the Walnut Knight's mace left a shallow hole on Bireg's arm. and he himself faced the axe of the barbarian chieftain.

"I want you to die!" Birig's big ax cut off Nikolai's right arm, and the pain caused the Walnut Knight to scream.

Even the screams were quickly extinguished. Bireg pinched the neck and lifted the Walnut Knight into the air. His throat was crushed, and the final sound was blocked in the Walnut Knight's throat.

"Hey, you incompetent man, how dare a knight of this level challenge me one-on-one?" Bireg laughed wantonly at the Walnut Knight's overreach. He didn't even have the idea of ​​getting his head, and Nikolai's body was like throwing garbage. He also threw it on the ground.

On the city wall, Teresa's face was as cold as ice. The sorceress had used up all her magic power after the long battle. She was helpless in the face of the knight's defeat, because she still had to leave the last bit of magic power to ensure that she could use it in critical moments. The scroll teleports away.

"The lowly southerners have been defeated, warriors! Come on!!! Blood sacrifice to the blood god! Skull sacrifice to the blood god!!" Bireg roared loudly.

"Blood Sacrifice to the Blood God! Sacrificing the Skull Seat!!!" The remaining barbarian soldiers followed the chief and broke through the last line of defense of the Nord army, followed by their favorite massacre and arson.

However, something unexpected happened. The high-pitched and bright horn sounded from the city, and the human beings burst into shouts of hope. Groups of cavalry rushed out of the town, bringing death to every barbarian who wanted to enter the town.

There are guns in the forest,

Under the leadership of Ryan, the Nord knights rushed into the barbarian position. The barbarian fighters responded calmly, steel against steel, and bright red blood splashed in the air. Bireg was surprised that humans still had such a new force, but He immediately realized that these messy-clad human cavalry were not composed of knights at all, but a miscellaneous army composed of noble guards, church paladins and knight retinues, led by a templar and a white wolf knight And the Earl, the lord of the city.

"Mr. Ryan! We will fight for your chance, and we will leave the rest to you!" Templar Frod used his sword and shield to attack the formation of the barbarian army, followed by Alfred: " Go! Good friend!"

"The whole army! Advance!!!" The earl rode on the elven horse, and the lance in his hand pierced the heart of a barbarian rider. The earl let the lance break off, and then immediately took a new one from his guard: "For Nord!"

"For the Nords!!" The cavalry shouted loudly, and they rushed into the barbarian formation like a whirlwind of death.

After all, there were still too many barbarian soldiers, and the cavalry gradually fell into the mud. Bireg was very surprised to find that this group of people was rushing towards him, so he clenched his ax shield and prepared to fight.

Strange things happened in front of Bereg's eyes. The Nord cavalry scattered when they were about to charge in front of him. Only a young man brandished a warhammer and walked towards him. The young man's black hair was draped in the On both sides of the handsome face, there is a fine iron chain mail with a breastplate. The White Wolf Knight badge on the chest is shining. His young face shows his identity. He is the "Sledgehammer" Ryan, leading the cavalry to charge leader.

Facing the tight spear formation of the barbarian soldiers, the young knight suddenly raised his warhammer towards Bireg with his right hand.

The barbarian soldiers pointed their spears at him subconsciously, and the young knight got off his horse immediately. Bireg immediately understood what he meant. The barbarian chief waved his hand to signal all the soldiers to get out of the way, and he clenched the battle ax in his hand and walked forward alone .

The champion duel, the most important ceremony of the northern barbarians, the winner will get everything, and the loser will lose his head.

"Young white wolf knight Ryan, you are very brave and powerful. I have fought all the way here from the north. You are the most courageous knight I have ever seen. Just for this, your head will become my collection. "The barbarian chief sneered disdainfully, he opened his mouth, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth, and even forged gold teeth: "You are amazing to be able to advance to legend at this age, but I am already a high-level legend, And you, just a legendary beginner, you clearly understand that as long as you last another day, the reinforcements of the empire will arrive, but you still want to rush over to die in a foolish way? Haven't you learned the 'glorious retreat'?"

Ryan understood the words of the barbarian chief, as long as the defenders retreated into Mjordenhaven, fought fierce street battles, and finally defended the earl's castle, it would not be a problem to defend for a day.

"Heh~ That's right, as long as we retreat into the castle, we will definitely be able to persist until sunrise, or if I meet you in the wild, I will run away without hesitation, because it is not shameful to run away if you cannot be defeated."

"However, it's different here. Behind me are the people of this city, and I am the knight of the kingdom."

"The duty of a knight, guard my country, defend my people!"

"Of course I can hide in the city and build a new line of defense."

"But what about these citizens? What will be their fate?"

"I won't stand on the walls of a castle and watch you bring death to your people, because that's not knighthood."

"Life is precious, but after all, there are some things worth paying for. This has nothing to do with the price. This is faith, this is honor, this is responsibility, and this is the backbone of our human beings that has stood firm for thousands of years!"

"Let's fight! How big is Nord! Behind him is Winter City!" The knight of the kingdom raised his warhammer.

Bireg's expression changed.

Since he broke through the storm fortress and went all the way south, he has seen countless so-called knights and nobles fleeing in embarrassment under his iron hooves. He has seen how those self-proclaimed "higher people" begged for their lives in front of him. No longer mocking, but serious, the barbarian chief nodded deeply: "Your head will become my most precious collection!"

So the barbarian chief got off the huge white bear in front of Ryan, and Ryan also chose to dismount. In the middle, Ryan and Bireg stood opposite each other.

All the fighting around stopped, the Nord soldiers and the barbarian fighters stopped fighting, a depressing sense of silence enveloped the battlefield, countless eyes stared at the two people who were confronting each other,

Everyone, Nords and barbarians alike, knew that this momentous moment would determine the outcome of this battle. Great warriors on both sides, the epitome and representation of the power of their respective races.

Theresa, standing on the city wall, realized why Ryan refused to go back to Skydome with her. The sorceress covered her mouth with her hand, and the hot tears could not help but slipped from her beautiful Danfeng eyes. Emilia was also shocked.

After a brief pause of a few seconds, Ryan suddenly raised his hand, and a very strong spiritual light radiated from his hand, shining on Bireg. The barbarian chief closed his eyes subconsciously because of the sudden light. The skin also made a sizzling sound because of the burning pain, and the barbarian chief had to retreat subconsciously.

Ryan took a deep breath and took the opportunity to charge. The war hammer in his hand flashed with lightning, and the White Wolf Knight badge on his chest shone like starlight. The Kingdom Knight seized the opportunity to rush towards his enemy, wanting to take this opportunity to kill him with one blow. .

Years of rich combat experience saved the barbarian chief. He subconsciously raised his shield to resist, and the heavy hammer hit Bireg's shield. The pain of severed wrist and the burning sensation of lightning made the barbarian chief scream. Taking advantage of the opportunity to block the attack, Bireg swung his battle ax horizontally to counterattack. The sharp blade of the ax cut across the icy air, and Ryan had to take back the war hammer. golden sparks.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Bi Ruila distanced himself from the young man. The young man's despicable means made him a little out of rhythm. The barbarian chief was adjusting his breathing and preparing to launch the next offensive.

Bireg is much taller than Ryan. The two-meter-tall barbarian chief has only simple leather armor. It looks like a hill made of muscles, which contains explosive energy. Of course, Ryan Knowing what fate he would face once the barbarian chief adjusted, he decided not to give Bireg any time to adjust. The knight of the kingdom rushed towards the barbarian chief again regardless of the convulsive pain in his body.

Of course, Bireg knew what this young man was thinking. The barbarian chief adjusted his pace and exhaled deeply. The mist like steam was sprayed from his nostrils. His battle ax wanted to drink this The blood of the knight, his shield almost as tall as a man, he was ready.

The warhammer hit the shield heavily and was bounced away by Bireg. The barbarian chief was ready to fight back, but at this moment, the knight of the kingdom suddenly took out a double-barreled firecracker from behind the cloak, and pointed it directly at the barbarian chief. Xia Sanlu pressed the trigger.

The barbarian chief was shocked. He didn't want to lose his fertility and become male and female, so Bireg could only interrupt the rhythm of the counterattack and barely raised his shield to resist.

"Boom!"

The shield protected the vitals, but there was still a bullet hole in the barbarian chief's calf, and blood flowed from the bullet hole. Ryan threw the firecracker and took advantage of the situation to carry out a series of blows.

The wound seems to have eliminated the traces of Bireg's rational thinking, and he recovered the most primitive instinct in the past and rushed over more ferociously. The hostile sides continued to unfold, and the duel was so fast that the surrounding soldiers could not see their figures clearly.

Only the constant roar, the sound of metal and iron clashing, and the sparks flying in the air said everything: the last hope of the city was fighting to the death with the barbarian chief.

…………

Thirty minutes later, the young knight of the kingdom realized that he was losing. His hands had begun to lose strength, and his body was slowly becoming numb. He could feel the blood spraying from the depths of his throat and the taste of rust in his mouth. His strength is fading, his legs have become stiff, but his opponent is still launching a powerful offensive against him.

"Ah!!!" Ryan took two steps back under Birig's powerful attack. The numbness in his arm made him almost unable to hold the hammer, and a stream of blood spewed from his throat. The White Wolf Knight forcibly swallowed the blood again. Going down, he forced his hands to grip the handle of the hammer.

"Hero of Nord? Sledgehammer Ryan? You are not my opponent~" Bireg did not show any fatigue, the tall figure of the barbarian chief approached Ryan, and the footsteps of the barbarians were sounding that Ryan was going to the end death knell.

The barbarian chief used his favorite skill - Whirlwind Slash, the constantly turning axe blade pressed into Ryan's defense line one by one. The legendary high-ranking barbarian chief was much better than Ryan in terms of wrist strength and endurance. The White Wolf Knight was still too young Well, he is already in his fifties this year, and his age is almost twice that of Ryan. With his rich and bloody combat experience and the blessing of divine power from the blood god of Khorne, Ryan feels that every blow of the barbarian chief has an earthquake Shan Yao's strength is at the first level of legend, and every time he advances to a level, his ability will have a huge difference. He can temporarily gain an advantage through some tricks, but after a long time, the gap in hard power will definitely make Ryan lose.

The White Wolf Knight retreated again and again, with shallow wounds on his shoulders and arms, muscle spasms, and blood surging.

The championship showdown failed! Am I going to lose?

Ryan's vision gradually blurred, is he about to lose?

No, I can't fall down here!

I can't lose this duel!

Father, what should I do? !
