Chapter 10: The Fight to the Death

"You let my son go first. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info I promise you will be able to get out of here safely. Old Bynes said with a gloomy face.

Dane scoffed at old Barnes's words and said, "Your words are useless, do you think I will believe what you say with white fangs?" If you're really sincere, let the crossbowmen behind you put down their weapons first. I'm sure they won't kill me with an arrow, but I'll be able to chop off your son's head with a single sword. ”

Old Barnes turned around and shouted, "Put your weapons down for me!" Then, he looked at Dane again and said, "You tell me a condition." ”

The smile on Dane's face was very grand, and he said, "We've known each other for so long, and we must have a break today." Come on, I'll call you an old friend, let's have a duel to the death, and everything will be right when I die. If you die, I promise I won't do anything to your son. You have to trust my promises, you know I'm not your kind of person. ”

Old Baines's face was extremely bad, and to be honest, he didn't dare.

Five years ago, when Dane first joined the Dread Mercenary Regiment, he could defeat Dane with one hand; Three years ago, he could still easily hold Dane down; A year ago, he had to give it his all to get a draw with Dane. 、

The current Dane, as a fifth-level berserker, old Baines is not afraid, he himself is a sixth-level warrior, and in one-on-one battles, he should not be afraid of Dane.

But he's old.

Half-orcs don't live long, and very few survive past sixty years. The old ghost is almost up to time, and in the last year or two, he can clearly feel that his body functions are declining rapidly. The lion war hammer he used to use in the past, now he can't dance, he no longer has the strength of his youth, and if he forcibly uses the heavy weapons of his youth, it is estimated that he will not be able to fight for three or two rounds. As a result, he had to switch to a lighter axe to fight.

His body could no longer even support his superb martial arts. The only thing he could rely on was his rich combat experience, but this did not have much advantage in front of Dane. You must know that Dane was also killed from the sea of corpses and blood, and in terms of combat experience, even if he is a little worse than him, it is definitely not bad.

Old Baines could feel that if he dragged his old body to a duel with the young and powerful Dane, he would probably be himself.

He could also see that Dane was looking for an opportunity to kill him. Under normal circumstances, Old Baines would not have given him this opportunity to accept the invitation to a duel. But now, his son is in Dane's hands.

All that the elder Baines did, was for his son. Although, he himself felt that his son was not successful, but with such a bloodline, what could he do? He didn't have much time left to liveβ€”two to three years at most, and he had to pave the way for his son.

He decided to give it a go, and it wasn't true that he didn't have any chance of winning. Back then, the name of [Ghost Fang] also resounded throughout the southeast of Schindlaire. Although he is now old and frail, his physical function has declined, and he does not have the enthusiasm of the year, the courage of the First World War still exists.

"Yes, I can promise you a duel." Eventually, the elder Baines made the decision.

"Good!" Dane grinned, he wanted that effect.

With a force on his hand, he struck the back of the head with the hilt of his knife, knocking the young orc unconscious, and handed it to Golobo beside him.

"Watch this guy, he will faint when he wakes up. Whenever there is anything wrong with the duel, such as a sneak attack by a third person or something, don't hesitate, you can directly kill this kid. ”

Dane confessed to Golobo, and deliberately made his voice louder. In addition to saying this to Golobo, the most important thing is to warn old Baines: Your son's life is still in my hands, don't think about anything that shouldn't be done.

The cunning ghost fangs, of course, understood the meaning of Dane's words. He didn't say anything, but took off his coat, revealing a set of well-forged chain mail inside, pulled out the two short axes from his waist, and stood in the center of the field.

"Alas......" Dane sighed, looked at Baines's old body, slowly lifted the narrow sword in his hand, came to the opposite side of him, and said: "Old ghost, I still remember when I first met you seven years ago, you were not old like this, and you were still the strongest warrior in Rotten Wolf Town; When I joined the Dread Mercenary Group with you five years ago, you were a little old, but you were still a respectable warrior. ”

"But look at you now. Old, fragile, and powerless, physical weakness is not terrible, but the most terrible thing is that your spirit, like your body, becomes timid, cowardly, and incompetent. You're no longer a warrior, you're more of a miser, unenterprising, and nothing more than the heir to the dreadnought for your idiot-like son. ”

"Your honor is gone, your pride is gone, everything that I know about Baines is gone, he's dead, and all that's left is a walking corpse."

"I won't let the dreadghosts slowly come to an end in the hands of you and your wasted son, if it is inevitable, I hope that the death of the dreads can be more vigorous, even if it is for me to end it myself."

"Come on, old ghost, I want to see if you can regain even a little bit of your former bearing in the last battle of your life."

This is what Dane said sincerely, and this is indeed what he thinks in his heart. A few years ago, he joined the dreaded ghost with the worship of old Baines. But in the intervening years, the elder Baines has changed too much. As he said, the heroic warrior was dead, leaving only a shell stolen by greed and cowardice.

After listening to Dane's words, old Baines sneered: "Don't try to disturb my mind with words. ”

"Well......" Dane sighed again and shook his head, not going to say anything more. Everything that should be said has been proclaimed, and the attitude of old Baines also makes him die.

The long knife pointed at Bynes's head, "Let me give you a death." ”

"You've got to have that." Old Baines shouted angrily, and with a wave of his arm, the short axe in his hand was thrown directly by him!

The spinning axe, in a strange arc, slashed at Dane's head.

Old Baines's kung fu is still powerful, and the skill of spinning the axe is quite exquisite, which has caused a lot of applause from the dreaded mercenaries behind him.

But Dane sighed in his heart - this old ghost is really old.
