Chapter 66: The Will to Resist
In a short period of time, Barende experienced the abandonment of Miera and the resistance of Moredi in succession, and the complex and intertwined anger in his chest suddenly burned uncontrollably.
He stared at the underground dwarf who was rushing towards him with a short knife in his hand, and said in his heart that this lowly slave would dare to take the opportunity to attack him?!
"Look for death!" Then the gray dwarf roared in exasperation, a rough roar like the roar of a beast in Moredi's face, and the enchanted battle axe held tightly in his right hand followed him with a flick of his arm—
Moredi's eyes widened, and the gaze in his pupils didn't dare to be distracted for a second!
The enchanted battle axe, which had taken a step from the gray dwarf's hand and slashed diagonally at him, was lethal enough for him.
He has no shield, whether it is a heavy large shield, a versatile medium shield or a dexterous small shield, and the armament in his hand is only a curved blade with a blood groove on the blade, so he does not intend to charge directly to "hit hard" as savagely and recklessly as Urs's fighting style.
Instead, immediately adjust the steps under your feet - bend your knees, brake sharply.
Bow your head and move quickly!
This skillful combat skill he had learned in the Grey Dwarf barracks, and through his own qualifications and hard training day after day, he had done a lot of dirty work for Barend in the past, causing the other underground dwarf slaves in the city to look at him with a different kind of complexity.
and subconscious precautions.
After all, he has long been a dog at Barende's feet in the eyes of many of his fellow citizens who don't know the truth.
The little guy with a slave collar around his neck like the other underground gnomes lied to the Thorns Squad outside the tunnel path from the Inverted Tower to the city of Palomet.
He wasn't a lowly thief before, but in fact the son of the mayor of Palomite, who had cut off the head of his mayor's father to Barend, the leader of the Gray Dwarf army, a few years ago, when he saw the army of the Grey Dwarves encroach on his homeland with the support of the Dark Elves!
It wasn't his intention, it was a painful choice made after consulting with his mayor's father.
Thus, over the course of a few years, he used his dead father's head to declare his apparent loyalty to Barend, and for several years he disguised himself as a stammering man who couldn't speak well to lower Barende's vigilance, and even used a knife to cut his face to the point of disfigurement, in case some talkative idiot would accidentally identify his true identity.
All the flattery, all the humiliation, in the final analysis, is just to wait for the opportunity, and the desperate eyes are always just to confuse outsiders......
For Barende, he has no respect, only unforgettable hatred!
And now here's the opportunity -
Barend was the central figure in the entire Grey Dwarf army that captured the city of Palomites. He tried to seize this hard-won opportunity to take out Barende, and his fast-moving body avoided the slash of the battle axe with the help of broken steps under his feet and came to the right side of the gray dwarf officer, and the short knife in his hand immediately stabbed the opponent's neck again!
That little dagger contained his burning hatred!
The air-splitting battle axe caused Barende's body to reveal a defensive flaw for a moment—but the sturdy gray dwarf officer, even if he lost his left arm, was able to use his experience to defuse Moredi's immediate attack after dodging.
I saw that he didn't lose his mind and immediately retracted the right arm that had held the tomahawk in front of his body to the left side, but simply sank down his right shoulder and leaned hard against Moredi's face!
The dwarves still have a slight advantage in height when facing gnomes.
Barende's right shoulder, even though he wasn't armoured, was like a hard rock that slammed into Moredi's dagger before he could stab him.
Moretti felt the bridge of his nose burn, two clumps of tears squeezed out of the corners of his eye sockets uncontrollably under the stimulation of the pain nerves, and the balance of his feet suddenly stumbled with his head tilted.
"You're too tender, little dwarf!" Barende shouted arrogantly, then flicked his right arm and swung the one-handed battle axe with the enchantment enhancement at him again.
Moretti was a little embarrassed by Barronde's heavy shoulders that took advantage of his size.
He was too lightweight, and his advantage in the face of the gray dwarf officer was only a degree of agility, and then he had to fall to the ground and roll, and the enchanted battle axe followed closely and slashed at the position where he was a second ago. "A bang.
The moon-shaped blade of the tomahawk curved across the floor of the rocky room, leaving a purple-black arc along the way, indicating that the magical negative energy attached to the axe was not a joke.
He thinks he can't beat Urs, but he's still very confident against Moredi!
Moredi rolled on the floor of the room, glad that his reflexes and judgments were quick and decisive, and then rose from the ground, raising his gaze again to look at his opponent, his heaving chest and open mouth gasping for air.
His nose cracked, and dark red blood flowed out, staining his ugly but resolute face.
"Don't think you can resist me, you stinky slave who doesn't know whether to live or die!"
The one-armed gray dwarven officer lifted his battle axe from the ground, and immediately approached the blood-stained underground gnome with its nose and mouth.
Moretti gritted his teeth, squeezing away the blood that had been left from his nose to his mouth, his dark eyes eyeing the distance between Barend and himself getting closer, the knees of his legs slightly bent for a dodge move, or an urgent roll like he had just done.
He knew that Barend's strength was far superior to his own in a one-on-one duel, so he decided to tear through the disguise and attack the brutal gray dwarf officer after confirming that his arm had been cut off by Urs.
However, the current situation is a little bit different from what he expected......
The strength of the gray dwarf seemed to be much stronger than him even after lacking the protection of the armor and the function of the left arm, and the battle axe in his hand quickly followed the pace of progress and slashed at him for the third time in this one-on-one battle!
This time, Barende had an extra mind, and instead of his usual diagonal slash, he moderately lowered the height of his body and arms and swung forward with a violent sweep.
Unable to catch the gap in the counterattack, Moredi had to step back, and suddenly heard a knock from the direction of the door.
"Bang!" A bang.
It was as if someone had lifted him from the outside and kicked him rudely.
"What did you give birth to?!" He was taken aback, and first dodged the tomahawk that Barend swept in front of him, and then the corner of his eye glanced a little over there, and then a white arrow of light flew over the edge of his line of sight with a "whoosh" -
