Chapter 692: Collapse
I looked at Betty with blood in my eyes, and the latter handed the long sword forward: "Wang Huan, I know you can kill me, but I can also kill your friend." If you want to watch them beheaded in front of you, you can resist. ”
I couldn't help but take a deep breath and slowly dissipate the blood in my eyes.
The black-robed priest walked slowly up to me: "Because you have to continue to lead the way, and the punishment for you will fall on your accomplices first." The person who is punished will have one of his hands cut off, and it is up to you to choose who to cut. ”
With a wave of his hand, the two paladins raised their long swords at the same time, aiming at Ye Xun and Ren Tianqing's right arms and shoulders.
"Two more!" the black-robed priest waved his hand again, and the other two knights aimed their swords at their left shoulders.
The black-robed priest said coldly: "I'll give you three minutes to choose, if you don't choose someone, I'll have people chop off their hands at the same time." ”
I glared at the other side, and the black-robed priest narrowed his eyes and sneered, "You'd better not choose to commit suicide to seek relief." As soon as you move your neck a little forward, I'll have both of their heads cut off at once. ”
The black-robed priest looked at me with a sneer on his face and said, "Sometimes choice is also a kind of salvation. If, I am you, I will choose Ye Xun. His hand, his sword, has killed so many people that his soul can only be redeemed by cutting off the hand that has touched sin. Are you right?"
I turned my gaze slightly to look at Ye Xun, but the latter shook his head at me slightly, and looked at his shoulder again. What he meant was that he had already estimated, and there was no chance of winning by forcing a breakthrough, and he could only take the lives of a few of us.
Ye Xun was finally telling me, let me choose him!
I clenched my fist hard: "Peter, right? Before I choose, I'd love to tell you something. There is a saying in Huaxia that is called 'rather for broken jade than for tile whole'. ”
When I turned my head, my eyes were already bloody: "Peter, you are forcing me to die with you." ”
Betty suddenly panicked: "Wang Huan, what are you going to do? You have to think clearly, your friend is still in our hands......"
I smiled faintly and said, "So what's the matter? In life, there are some things that must not be lost." Today, Lao Tzu nodded, he could save his brother's life, but he broke his backbone. None of us want to do that. ”
My gaze locked on the eyes of the black-robed priest, who suddenly looked like a prey being targeted by a fierce beast, his whole body trembled, but he didn't even have the courage to turn his head, he could only watch the fierce eyes of the fierce beast, praying for a trace of mercy in the other party's eyes.
A smile tugged at the corner of my mouth: "Don't you want to redeem your soul? I'm going to destroy your body now, and I'm going to see if your soul will be redeemed." ”
"Stop!" Betty screamed, "Let go of the priesthood, or I'll kill you." ”
"Do it, try who is faster!" As I spoke, the blood in my eyes grew thicker, and the black-robed priest knelt on the ground with his hands on his heart, but like a fat duck choked by the neck, he kept staring at me with his head raised and begging for his life.
Strings of tears flowed from the corners of his eyes, but he couldn't make a sound.
Betty exclaimed: "Don't look at Wang Huan's eyes, turn your head, turn your head quickly!"
I sneered, "Those who are being targeted by me, don't think about turning your head." Now you break the arrow off and blind him with an empty arrow, and maybe save his life. I'll let you choose, do you want to save his life, or do you want to keep his eyes?"
"Wang Huan, stop me!" Betty screamed: "Teacher Angelo, save the priest quickly, he can't die...... You can't die!"
Angelo stepped forward and said, "Wang Huan, if you let go of Priest Peter, the previous things can be written off, and I can also guarantee that similar things will not happen again." ”
Angelo was obviously much calmer than Betty, and he could see that I didn't really want to kill.
If I were the only one here, I would definitely fight the Knights to the death. However, I still have to take care of Ye Xun and Ren Tianqing now, so what I want most is to reach an agreement with the other party, not destroy them together.
Angelo looked at me with the hilt of his sword in his hand and said, "Wang Huan, I know that you are a smart person. Smart people should know convergence, there is never any maximization of interests in this world, and the result of repeated temptations, I'm afraid you can't afford it. ”
Angelo's statement, I very much agree, there is never any biggest benefit in this world, the so-called benefit maximization, is just about to touch the other party's bottom limit, timely stop.
Once the opponent's bottom limit is reached, it is likely to be the result of the fish dying and the net being broken!
The reason why I have been using the "devil's eyes open" to hang the other party's gaze, but I refuse to kill again, is to test Angelo's bottom line, and I want to see how much he will pay for this prison army.
Angelo was about to speak again when a loud bang came from the snow-capped mountain behind me, followed by a thunderous roar that swooped down towards us from the top of the mountain.
It's an avalanche!
My first reaction was an avalanche!
Angelo also lost his calm: "Wang Huan, the steamer washed down on the snow mountain, and you still don't let go?"
"I accept your terms!Let your men take the sword away!" I sneered and waved my hand to block the sword that was pressing against my neck, and the blood in my eyes dissipated.
When I looked sideways at the snow-capped mountain, the huge ship that had stopped at the top of the mountain had rushed to the mountainside, and the snow on both sides of the hull was like the sea water broken by the ship, the waves were surging wildly, and the white waves were splashing, and the radius of a hundred meters was silvery white, and only the black shadow of the ship shrouded in snowflakes was hideous.
Even though we were a few hundred meters away, we could still feel the tremors of the ground.
Angelo stretched out his hand and pulled up the black-robed priest: "Peter, let's go." ”
"No!" Peter angrily shook off Angelo's palm: "That's a phantom, it's a phantom!"
A wicked smile crossed my lips: Peter has been tricked.
From the moment Peter knelt before my eyes, all his might was gone. If he does not re-establish his prestige, then he, the prison army, will become a nominal ornament, and even if he returns to the Holy See, he can only be a laughing stock for the rest of his life.
The only way Peter could save face was to prove that the wrecked ship was a phantom. Even if it's all or nothing, he's going to have to try the result.
Besides, I gave him hope!
I kept my back to the giant ship and stood still, enough for him to think that what had washed down the hill was a fake. Because, he didn't believe it, I would gamble my life on a seemingly meaningless battle for reputation.
Angelo said loudly: "That's not a phantom, don't you feel the shaking of the ground?"
Peter quickly glanced at my face before roaring, "That's the devil deliberately giving us the illusion, there must be a devil's trap around here, we can't run around!"
Without waiting for Angelo to say anything, Peter cried out: "In my capacity as the central bishop of the Holy See, I command you to stand still and not to disturb anyone." This is a contest of faith and will! You must believe ......."
Peter was in an impassioned mood, and the snow particles carried up by the hull of the ship were already like a storm and snow rolling towards us. In the blink of an eye, I was covered with a layer of earthy snowflakes.
I stood still, and Peter looked at me three times in succession, and became more and more sure that the great ship that had rushed down from the mountain was only an apparition.
A short time later, I rushed to the snow that had been pushed away by the hull of the ship and rushed behind me like a sea of mountains.
"Run—" I roared, and my feet jumped out of thin air a few meters out of thin air, lying sideways in the snow.
The moment I got close to the ground, I happened to see Ye Xun and Ren Tianqing jump up at the same time, and quickly evacuate in the same direction as me.
I was relieved, the two of them were restrained with both hands, but the light work was still there, and it was not a problem to withdraw twenty or thirty meters in an instant, although this distance was short, but it was enough to escape.
The giant ship that rushed madly from behind also crushed past the place where I was standing the moment Ye Xun and the others got up.
The air currents brought by the hull of the ship were like a storm of snow, whistling and fast, and several holy sword knights were only a little slow and were blown away by the strong wind, but more people did not have time to dodge the speeding giant ship, and were swept under the ship.
The steel wheel scurried across the ground, the divine armor was crushed and deformed, the human skeleton made a violent noise, and the knight screamed miserably before he died...... Mix it all in one place, and it's enough to make people feel creepy.
The moment all kinds of sounds poured into my eardrums, the waves of snow pushed away by the giant ship also covered me.
I quickly lay on the ground with my head in my hands, and let the surging snowdrifts bury me in the ground.
Although I couldn't see the outside, I could hear the heart-rending screams of the Holy Sword Knight, which continued until the sound of trees breaking in the air, and the knight's screams stopped for a moment.
By the time I tried my best to peek out of the snow, the ship had left a bloody mark on the snow, and it rushed straight into the forest in the distance, crushing large trees before coming to a halt at the edge of the forest.
I turned around twice in the snow before I dragged Ye Xun and Ren Tianqing out of the snow: "Are you all right?"
I just wanted to get the clavicle hook on Ye Xun's body, when I heard the other party shouting, "Watch out behind you." ”
Before I could turn back, I had an extra broad-bladed sword on my shoulder. Angelo's voice also followed: "Wang Huan, are you looking for death?"
I don't know how to judge the skill of a knight, but Angelo was able to get close behind me without a sound, and with a two-handed broadsword more than a meter long, he pressed my shoulder without the sound of the wind, which shows that his skill has reached an appalling level.
I didn't have time to analyze whether it was his own cultivation or the power of the Holy Armament, so I was escorted by the other party to his feet and walked towards Priest Peter, who was kneeling in the distance.
Peter, who was on his knees like a fool and trembling, suddenly got up and rushed to me with red eyes when he saw me coming.
