The war developed as Isabel had planned. Surrounded by five viking-like knights, Joseph Swift and the other three were killed on the spot after a desperate battle.

Sir Victor Layton of the two knights was indeed a brave and loyal elite knight. When his life was about to end, he still did not forget the vow he had made to Viscount Darlington to protect his eldest son for the rest of his life.

When the companion of the "Head of Mohican" stabbed Victor Layton in the left side of the chest with the stabbing sword in his hand, Sir glared at the broken knight, blood from the corner of his mouth, and said, "If you hurt the lord's eldest son, I will come to you even if I become a devil." ”

Sir Victor died on the edge of his sword that pierced his chest. The Broken Knight looked at the knight, who was holding his shoulders with both hands, nodded and whispered, "You are a true warrior, and your deeds deserve my respect." ”

Slowly drawing his sword from Jazz's chest, he lifted the scarred and bloodied body of Jazz and lowered it to the ground. Then he gently put the hilt of Sir's stabbing sword into his right hand, helped him to grasp the hilt of the sword, and gazed at the dead Sir and said, "Warrior, your Heroic Spirit can now enter Valhalla, the shrine of Asgard (the dwelling place of all gods who worship Odin as the main god in Norse mythology). ”

"Head Mohican" watched silently as his companion had done all this, and then said to him, "Brother, let us take this lady boy back." ”

The Broken Knight stood up and walked over to the disarmed hostage, staring at him coldly. He looked at Joseph's still free hands again and said, "Brother, have you forgotten that Lord Brunhilde told us to tie him up?" ”

"Mohican Head" glanced at Joseph with disdain, and said with a laugh: "Brother, now you also admit that she is the god Brünnhilde who has been given victory, right?" ”

"yes. So, why don't you get your hands on it yet? ”

It was only then that Joseph felt as if he had just woken up from a dream. The march, the attack, the resistance, the capture, everything happened so fast that he could hardly believe he had fought to the death.

"Ah......h His eyes glared at the "Mohican Head" who walked from behind him to the front and said, "You can't do this to me. I am Lord Darlington's eldest son, the legal heir to the title! ”

"Mohican" smirked, raised the short-handled battle axe in his hand, looked at it, and said to him: "I know who you are." It is precisely because you are the eldest son of the Lord that this axe of mine did not cut off your head. ”

"You... How do you know who I am? ”

"Because the difference between a nobleman and a thief is that one looks like a lady and the other looks like a beast, hahaha......"

The Broken Knight stood behind and nudged Joseph, and said in disgust, "Hurry up, ma'am, and we're going to get you a large ransom for us." ”

The practice of exchanging captured knights for ransom was not surprising to Joseph. It's just that there is one thing he doesn't quite understand, why are all the knights except him killed? Couldn't these knights be exchanged for ransom?

Thinking of this, he glanced at the "Mohican Head" who was walking in front of him on the left and said, "Warrior, since you know that you can exchange my life for ransom, then why do you want to kill other knights?" ”

"Head Mohican" looked back at him, grinned, and said, "This is an order from our leader." Oh no, it should be the victory that God gave to the chiefs. ”

"Warrior, may I know who this God of victory is? Believe me, after being released by you, I can proclaim to the people the mercy and mercy that this victory has bestowed upon God. ”

"Boy, you said it very well, you almost moved me."

"Warrior, I believe you are also a knight who treats the weak with kindness."

Isabelle, who had good eyesight, observed the movement in the grove by the moonlight, and said to Ferguson casually: "Sir, you quickly lead people to outflank the side of the grove and cut off the retreat of these people, and it is better to catch these people." ”

Ferguson fiddled with the tomahawk in his hand, glanced at the dark shadow in the grove and said, "Ma'am, we can actually put the box full of gratuities in front of them and let them come out of the woods by themselves." ”

"I'm afraid these cunning foxes won't take the bait easily. If their goal is to get a gratuity, they've already done it just now, so why wait until now? ”

"Isabel, I accept your suggestion. However, if I lead people to cut off their retreat, what about you? ”

"Don't worry, when they find out that I'm the only one guarding the box, they'll be excited to rush over and grab the gratuity."

Ferguson stood up and said, "No, Isabel, I can't leave you here alone." ”

Isabel smiled and said, "Thank you, Sir." I only wish you and your brother had caught them when they rushed in front of me. ”

"Okay, so are we going to kill these people, or are we going to leave them alive?"

"Well, don't kill yet, I want to hear what they have to say."

Charles, the longbowman, finally identified Ferguson, who was strong and full of ferocity, as his target. I saw that he unhurriedly put a heavy arrow back on the bowstring, pulled the bowstring to the fullest, and slowly aimed at Ferguson, who was dozens of yards away......

Who would have thought that just as he was about to cast the bowstring, the target would leave the bounty box placed on the road. Passing the longbowman in a knight's mask and dressed in a monk's uniform, he walked in the other direction with several other men armed with spears, stabbing swords, battle axes, or maces.

Charles, not knowing what was happening, turned his head as he retracted his bowstring and said, "Richard, their leader left with someone." ”

Richard hurriedly opened his eyes wide to look at the situation outside, and said happily: "Great, this group of guys left without bringing the gratuity box." ”

"Richard, didn't you see the masked longbowman standing guard near the chest?"

"Just a longbowman. Charles, you get rid of him first, and then we'll go and grab the honorarium together. ”

At this time, Francis just watched from the sidelines. Because he was not the leader of the five, the other thieves would not obey him. Richard raised his chin excitedly at him and said proudly, "Look, there's only one person now." Soon, we'll be paid. ”

Isabel has adjusted herself to a state of readiness, ready to shoot the heavy arrow on the string at the enemy. When she vaguely saw a figure that seemed to be aiming a bow and arrow at her, she slowly raised the longbow she was holding.

At Richard's request, Charles aimed precisely at the heart of the masked longbowman. Adjusting his breath, he unleashed the three fingers of his right hand, and a heavy arrow pierced the air and flew towards his enemy at high speed.
