Chapter 62: Operation Night
Upon returning to the castle, it was already completely dark, and he was relieved to see that Cliff was having dinner with his own family, without arousing suspicion.
Then he came to the soldiers' temporary resting place, called a few soldiers who had relatives in the city, and told them all about the situation straight to the point.
"Make your own choice, if Eternal Light does attack, your relatives will be enslaved or die under fire, and you have seen the power of their weapons in the morning. ”
"Boss, you brought up a few of us, what a bird baron, I only listen to you. ”
"Boss, if you have a plan, I'll follow you......" said the other man, gritting his teeth.
They had been discussing the question of what to do with the people outside who didn't guard the gates but all guarded the castle.
Someone took the lead, and the rest of the people also responded, and the black axe swept over everyone and said in a deep voice: "Don't make a noise about this matter first, understand?"
"Hmmm......"
Black Axe didn't tell them that he had actually made a deal with Lord Everlight.
Now that you have decided to take a step, it is necessary to choose the one with a firm mind, not a wall-to-wall grass.
After two confrontations yesterday and today, there are only about 40 remaining guards in White Eagle Castle, more than half of the casualties, and the deletion is much simpler.
Poke called a few people over again, and after listening to Black Axe's narration, two of them hesitated for a long time and did not give a positive answer, and Black Axe took advantage of their turn to make Bock close their eyes completely.
Under the frightened gaze of the others, Black Axe said calmly: "This multiple-choice question is not difficult, whether to die now or a few hours or follow me to witness the sun tomorrow." ”
The remaining three hurriedly knelt down: "The villain is willing to follow the adults left and right......"
After convincing more than twenty guards he was familiar with, he gave up continuing to persuade them, and the rest were guards trained by One-Eye, whose personalities were very similar to One-Eye, more violent and too risky.
When dinner was over, Black Axe once again secretly informed them of their next plans.
......
In the middle of the night, Black Axe suddenly opened his eyes, grabbed his iron axe, and walked out of the room.
Poke was already waiting outside the room: "My lord, do you want to call them now?"
"Hmm...... Go ahead and stay safe. ”
"Yes......"
Black Axe's plan is simple, as long as his own men subdue the remaining guards, and his task is to subdue the baron.
"Squeak......
The baron's door was gently pushed open by the black axe, which made the active baron slightly excited.
"Who's there?!"
After Baron Cliff raised his upper body to see the visitor, he asked with some confusion: "Black Axe, what are you doing here, and I will talk about it tomorrow if there is something to talk about......
Black Axe didn't respond to his question, but walked slowly towards him.
Cliff frowned, seemed to realize something, lifted the quilt, and got up from the bed: "You're getting bolder, you don't even knock on the door when you come in...... Someone!"
"My lord, my people have taken control of disobedience, and no one will disturb us. The black axe dragged the axe in his hand to the ground, making a sound of gold and stone clashing.
He walked towards Cliff step by step, and at the same time completely crushed the last loyalty in his heart.
Cliff couldn't help but take a few steps back: "Why? I've always trusted you......
Black Axe shook his head: "My lord, your bravery has been corrupted by the color of wine, and I, Black Axe, am willing to surrender to you in the past, instead of being cowardly now." ”
"Presumptuous!
Cliff yelled again in disbelief.
"My lord, you don't have to be nervous, I won't kill you, but if you resist, it won't be necessary......"
Cliff took two steps back again, reached out and touched the long sword that lay beside the bed, his eyes froze, and he suddenly drew the long sword.
The Black Axe shook his head, no longer persuading, and held the axe tightly and slashed at Cliff with all his might.
Seeing this, Cliff blocked the long sword and swung the power of the axe to the side of his body.
The mahogany cabinet behind him was tossed apart by the sawdust from the black axe's full blow.
"Ahh
The woman on the bed screamed, wrapped in the quilt, and crawled into the corner.
Cliff relied on his past skills to maneuver for a while, but in the face of the fierce strength of the black axe, he gradually appeared to lack the strength to dodge, so he could only continue to dodge.
The room was in chaos, and Black Axe didn't expect that Cliff, who had already been at the end of his crossbow, could hold on for so long, so he took a deep breath and said, "My lord, you have exchanged your life for the lives of thousands of people in White Eagle Castle, and you have enjoyed the treatment of a baron for so long, it's your turn to pay." ”
"Fuck the shit! how can those fools compare to me?"
Cliff's sword had fallen somewhere, and he could only dodge in the messy room.
Although the black axe said that he didn't want his life, his keen intuition felt his killing intent, and he really wanted to kill himself.
"Bang!"
The axe of the black axe struck the window strongly, and the cool night breeze filled the room through the broken window.
Cliff gasped: "Black Axe, you go back now, I promise to act as if tonight's incident didn't happen, and we leave White Eagle Fort with the rest of the guards!"
That stinky boy from Yongguang wants White Eagle Castle, I'll give it to him, and we'll find another small village to start over, how about it?"
"Hahaha......" Black Axe couldn't help laughing: "My lord, you lost, admit defeat......"
"Fuck you!" Cliff clutched a piece of glass in his hand, and stabbed the black axe into his neck with all his might.
How could the black axe let him succeed easily, subconsciously blocked, the axe slashed, and the baron's arm drew a bewitching and graceful arc, and a blood-colored flower bloomed on the ground.
"Ah......h
"Don't worry, my lord, I'm not going to do anything to your family......"
"Black Axe......!"
Cliff only felt his consciousness gradually drifting away from him, his body slowly getting cold, and he was completely plunged into darkness.
......
"My lord, the disobedient guards have already been locked up in the dungeon, what should I do next?"
Seeing that there was no movement in the room, Polk walked in and saw that the black axe was stopping Cliff's bleeding.
But the incision on the severed hand was too large, and blood still oozed out even after wrapping several layers of cloth.
"Hmm...... You go to the warehouse and bring out a box of gold coins and distribute them to those brothers and relatives who died in battle, and you divide the rest among yourself, and don't move the rest. ”
"Okay, I'll do it......"
"Wait, let Mr. Herbalist come over for a ......"
"My lord, there's no need, is it?" said Polke, glancing tentatively at Cliff, who was already pale.
"Go! obedient ......" Black Axe did want to kill Cliff, even if he carried his head to the errand, but in the end he looked at the dying Cliff and hesitated to do it.
"Hey, my lord, you don't have to resent me, I will probably come to accompany you soon, but in this way, with the lives of the two of us, hundreds of families and thousands of lives in White Eagle Castle can be saved, and they can live happily like the people of Eternal Light, I don't feel a loss." ”
