This fire merged here, basically the overall situation has been decided, Becker also relaxed a little, just wanted to pull out the knife from the thief's corpse, but did not think that the thief who was cut down by Edmund before was not mended, and kept lying on the ground and pretending to be dead, at this time, while a few people were relaxed, he struggled to sit up and stabbed the knife into Becker's lower abdomen.
The nerves tightened so that Becker's reaction was a little slow, his pupils shrank, and he couldn't pull out the knife when he pulled it out, only one foot almost subconsciously kicked towards the sneaking bandit.
Becker only felt a pain, the scimitar in the thief's hand had already pierced him in the lower abdomen, but before he could go any further, the bandit who was already seriously injured was kicked by Becker to the shoulder, lay back on the ground, and the scimitar that pierced into the lower abdomen also broke away from Becker's body.
Becker clutched his lower abdomen and kicked the bandit off his balance, leaning against the wall behind him with a "bang".
Tony and Manny reacted at this time, and the two of them raised their knives and slashed at the bandit.
Manny came to Becker's side with a blank look, and Tony looked at him as well.
Becker, whose face was pale, waved his hand and endured the pain: "Leave me alone, deal with Denton first." ”
Edmund has been learning swords for many years, although he is not experienced enough in actual combat, but at this time, the opponent Denton was abolished with one hand, and he lost a lot of blood in the previous fight with Becker.
Manny and Tony, two reinforcements, were eyeing the battle group to join the war group, and Becker, who did not join the war group because of his injury, sat on the ground at this time, picked up the pistol that Tony had thrown away before and began to reload the ammunition.
Denton took a few steps back, his one-eyed sweep over the approaching Edmund, Tony, and Manny, and finally landed on Becker, who was loaded with ammunition, his lips squirmed a few times, and he suddenly cried out in a wail, "I surrender, Bosses, I surrender." ”
Edmund, Tony, and Manny were stunned when they heard this, and Becker was also stunned, but then he reacted, afraid of Denton's deception, and the action of loading ammunition did not stop, and ordered: "Throw the knife away!" ”
When Denton heard this, his face turned pale for a while, and he hesitated, but seeing that Becker had already loaded the ammunition at this time, pointed the muzzle of the gun at himself, and finally stopped being entangled and threw the knife away.
Giving up the last resistance for the slightest chance of survival, Denton seemed to give up his dignity, and knelt down with a "poof" in the face of the knives and guns of Becker and others.
"Bosses, you let me live, I promise that I will never provoke you again in the future," seemed to feel that he was kneeling, and Denton also let go of his bottom line, raised his left hand, and begged for mercy to Becker and others, "One of my hands has been abolished, and I will not dare to provoke you bosses in the future." ”
Edmund couldn't see Denton's gesture, and kicked Denton over with a furious kick, Denton didn't even dare to hide at this time, and his originally tall body curled up on the ground like no bones.
Edmund said angrily, "You get up, the way you negotiated with us before made me think you were a character!" ”
Denton had lost a lot of blood in his previous desperate efforts, and then his face was defeated, and his voice was a little weak: "Boss Edmund, I was just pretending at the time, you forgive me." ”
"You didn't even bother when you were gouged out your eyes back then, and now you are so virtuous?"
"Those rumors are all lies, I let people spread them, my eyes were sick when I was a child, and the doctor removed them," Denton kowtowed, "I made up this story to scare people, and I usually fiddle with my prosthetic eyes for the same purpose as the street thugs show off their tattoos." ”
Manny, who is a representative of the street gangsters, scolded: "Who do you look at when you talk about street gangsters?" ”
Denton shrank back, he also knew who was the backbone of several people, so he turned his head to Becker, and begged for mercy with tears in his eyes: "Boss Becker, I know how powerful you are, I used to just beg for a living at sea, saying that it was pirates, but in fact, it was a group of homeless people who were driven by the navy, struggling to survive, I really didn't do anything bad, I still have a family in the East China Sea, I still have a pair of children, they are still waiting for me, you pity me, even if you don't pity me, you pity my children, you let me go, I promise that I will never think of going to sea again, and I promise to go home and be a good father and husband. ”
The tall and mighty Denton cried like a child, not to mention as a small and prestigious bandit, and even lost his dignity as a man, which made people feel unbearable and pitiful. When Edmund saw Denton's appearance, he didn't know what he thought, and his face was a little unpleasant.
Becker didn't speak, of course he didn't fully believe Denton's words begging for mercy, but this was different from Blackreef Village, at that time, killing pirates was at most overly defensive, but at this time Denton's life was completely controlled by him, Denton's life or death, now it is his hands, this is the difference between killing the enemy on the battlefield and killing surrendered prisoners after the war, Becker's heart in the 21st century moral and legal deterrence is still a little remnant, so he did not make a decision at the first time.
Becker's gaze swept over the room and stayed on the faces of Tony and Manny, who were faintly impatient, for a moment, and he couldn't help but sigh when he heard the shouts of killing coming from the first floor.
The fire has been done, what is the hypocrisy at this time? Becker exhaled, didn't look at Edmond with a complicated face, closed his eyes slightly, what Denton said may be true, maybe it is false, but he must harden his heart: "Tony, kill him." ”
"Don't!" Denton howled.
Tony didn't say a word, picked up the knife and slashed at Denton who was lying on the ground.
Denton's courage and strength seemed to have been lost along with his dignity as he knelt, and he struggled only twice in the face of Tony's slash, and then he lost his life and died in humiliation.
After confirming that Denton was dead and could not die again, Tony gasped and looked at Becker, and when he saw Becker close his eyes, he couldn't help but roll his eyes: "What next, Becker?" ”
When Becker opened his eyes, he happened to see the white of Tony's eyes, and he said expressionlessly, "Cut off his head and throw it downstairs." ”
"Huh?" Tony hesitated and didn't dare to make a move.
Seeing this, Becker struggled to his feet, grabbed the knife and went to Denton's body, violently pushed Tony away, and then slashed at Denton's neck.
After all, Becker was injured, and he was actually a little nervous in his heart, his hand was a little weak, and he couldn't cut off Danton's head with a knife, he was ruthless, and stepped the back of the knife, and finally cut off Denton's head entirely.
Blood poured out of Denton's neck wound and in the blink of an eye, staining Becker's feet in a pool of blood.
Tony and Manny looked at the rolling head on the floor with some fear, and then at Becker, who was panting and looking hideous.
Becker endured the nausea, and without revealing half a cent on his face, he instructed a few people: "You quickly take Danton's head and go downstairs to help." ”
Tony asked Manny, who looked disgusted and frightened, to lift Denton's head, and asked Becker with some awe, "Won't anyone be left to protect you?" ”
Becker waved his hand to the three of them in a stiff tone: "No need, the situation downstairs is the most important now, hurry up." ”
Three fierce generals with the news of Denton's death joined the battle, and the defeat of the bandits downstairs was certain.
Edmund had always obeyed Becker, and Tony and Manny were also in awe of Becker, and all three of them went downstairs when they heard Becker's orders.
After the three of them left, and there was no one alive on the second floor of the tavern, Becker finally tore off his disguise, grinned and sat on a chair with his lower abdomen covered, turned his head to see Denton's headless corpse, his stomach churned, he couldn't bear it anymore, leaned down and spit out a few mouthfuls, only to feel much better.
