Chapter Ninety-Four: Duel
Oss walked out of the Black Iron Prince's room, and as he was leaving, he confessed to Grurel and called Dargran away. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
On the way back, Oss told Dagran all about the conversation he had just had with Prince Egurel. Then, Dagran asked curiously: "Fourth brother, you said that you want to prove it to your father, but how do you prove it?" ”
Oss didn't answer, but asked, "Third brother, can you tell your father about using the Holy Light?" ”
"I said it in front of my father and uncles and aunts, and I also demonstrated it. It's just that my father doesn't seem to be very interested. ”
Oss was puzzled because it shouldn't be. According to Muradin, the power of Dagran's comprehension was in some ways stronger than his. So he asked, "How did you demonstrate?" ”
"It's just an ordinary demonstration, covering the right hand with holy light. What's wrong? ”
"Uh...... Like lighting? ”
"Pretty much." Dagran scratched his head and said embarrassedly, "I see that my father has been asking Uncle Grurel about you and the future you are talking about, so I won't say anything more. Actually, there's not much to say. ”
"What about the Knights of the Guardian Heart?"
Yes, but my father didn't say anything. I think he meant it. ”
Oss nodded, thinking about how to speak to Dagran. But in the end, he still chose to make a straightforward request: "Third brother, I know that you don't want to fight, let alone fight with holy light. But now, you have to use your strength to fight a dwarf! ”
"With whom?"
"Gigax Iron Fist! That is, Jigax Anwemar! Os confided a name, "You are going to fight Jigax in front of all your dwarven people!" ”
"Ahh Da Gran suddenly exclaimed in surprise and said, "Fourth brother, I probably understand your intention of letting me fight him. But against him, I won't be an opponent. ”
Oss stopped and turned to look at Dagran. He clasped Dagran's shoulders with both hands and said in a low tone, "But third brother, this is the only way I can think of." ”
"All right......" Dagran immediately agreed. However, neither his tone nor his expression showed any confidence.
"Third brother, if you win, maybe your father will agree to lead the Black Iron Clan out of Ironforge Castle. You will have a new life, and your father will no longer have to dwell on the hatred of Prince Madolan. You'll own the Red Ridge Mountains, and the whole of Blackstone. ”
"Yes...... I'm really not an opponent......"
Oss didn't have any good plan for this, and the idea of cheating, he just flashed in his mind and ignored it. Sighing heavily, he turned around and said as he walked, "Third brother, I haven't seen what you looked like when you finally broke out. But according to Big Brother's description, as long as you can give full play to your strength at that time, at least you won't lose. And this battle is not a battle of life and death, so as long as you can gain the upper hand, even if it is only for a few minutes, or if you can win a move and a half, it is definitely enough. ”
"Okay...... I'll do my best! ”
Back in the room, Chromie was sitting in a chair, quietly reading a book. On the table in front of her, there was a white, bubbly drink. Gygax, on the other hand, sat cross-legged on the ground, staring intently at Chromie.
Seeing Oss enter the door, Gigax stood up and asked first, "How was the talk?" ”
"Prince Madolan only agreed to half of the terms, and the other half needed Prince Egurel to make a commitment first, swearing not to fight for Ironforge again. But Prince Egurel said he would never give up Ironforge. So, it's an endless loop. Oss quickly explained, "Uncle, I need you to do me a favor. ”
"Anything!" Gigax only said three words.
Oss turned sideways, pointed to Dagran, who followed into the door behind him, took a deep breath and said, "Have a fight with my third brother, go all out!" ”
The request of "this ......" made Gigax somehow freeze in place.
"Prince Egurel takes Ironforge too seriously, and ignores the people around him. And now the third brother is the one who can change the mind of Prince Egurel. ”
"But what does this have to do with me fighting?" Gigax didn't know why, he looked at Dagran, "Besides, he's just a kid, and definitely not my opponent." ”
"No, uncle! Don't underestimate Dagran Sorisen! ”
Oss then gave Gigax a detailed explanation of the reasons and the implications if Dagran could win. He then asked Jigax to reveal all of his moves, including his strengths and preferred attacks. And this is the only limited help that can help reach Gran, and it is not considered cheating.
The four of them discussed until late at night, and Dagran wrote down all the information about Jigax. It's just that Jigax still said that even if Dagran knew everything about him in advance. But if he is asked to attack with all his strength, I'm afraid Dagran won't be able to resist it.
Jigax is indeed just telling the truth, in fact, Oss has no bottom in his heart. But he can only trust Muradin, and even more so Dagrande. Eventually, Oss asked Chromie to set up an enchantment for Dagran so that he could meditate and prepare for the battle.
By the next day, Oss had found the brothers Muradin, Kudran, and Sandmar, as well as Gerbin. Within a morning, including the dormitory area and the teleportation hall, all the dwarves and gnomes knew the news: "Three days later, at noon, the Gear Hall." Dagran Thoresen, son of the Prince of Black Iron, face off against the Mountain King's younger brother, Jigax Anwemar! ”
In the past three days, this news has been discussed and boiled. Because the two people in the duel have different identities.
Jigax Anwemar, the younger brother of the enigmatic King of the Mountains. Even though he had not been around for a long time, every dwarf knew how powerful he was, and they all recognized him as the most powerful dwarf except for the King of the Mountains.
And Dagran Thorrison is a hero in the eyes of every dwarf. This was all the result of the propaganda of Oss and his brothers, as they revealed all the details of the killing of Grubis. As a result, the gnomes are all on Dagran's side, fully supporting him. But in the eyes of the vast majority of dwarves, Dagran was just an underage child. Now, he's going to challenge Jigax. This makes the vast majority of dwarves wait to see the joke. Especially among the Copperbeard tribe, Prince Madolan personally took the lead and kept building momentum for this battle.
By the morning of the third day, in addition to the necessary guards and wounded numbers. All the dwarves and gnomes have gathered in the Hall of Gears. Whether it is the upper corridor with a good view, or the surroundings of the hall on the first floor, it is already crowded with people, and the tide is surging. And the gnomes who supported Dagran also took it upon themselves to sweep the gear hall empty. In the center of the hall, they built a square ring with a length of 20 meters and a width of 20 meters.
It was noon, and Jigax appeared with Dagran. The dwarves and gnomes who were watching welcomed them both with a tsunami.
It's just that Jigax frowned. The cheers all around, the dwarves and gnomes who were watching, this kind of monkey-like performance of watching the show made him impatient. Standing at the entrance of the hall, before the battle began, Jigax strided, tugged his belly, clenched his fists, and gathered his strength.
"Drink!" Jigax's fist, aimed at the ring in the middle of the gear hall, slammed out. An earthy yellow wave of air instantly impacted a distance of nearly three hundred meters! With just one punch, this 400-square-meter ring was blown to pieces!
Then, Jigax bowed, exerted, and jumped. After four consecutive leaps and turns, the time was only two breaths, and he stood in the center of the gear hall. He raised his anger and shouted: "Don't you feel small to use such a ring to decide the future of the dwarf race!" Shut up! ”
The sound waves are bursting, and their momentum is like thunder!
Just two simple words, the onlookers immediately silently silenced. And the gnomes also covered their mouths, apparently frightened by the jigax. Only now can these little beans intuitively see what kind of existence the so-called king of the mountains is his own brother!
At this time, Dagran was also bare-handed. He didn't use his old staff, and he didn't have a weapon suitable for the Light. During these three days he hardly ate, drank, or slept at all, but he did not feel tired or weak at all. At first, Dagran was really apprehensive and didn't know how to fight Jigax. But by the next day, Dagran was no longer thinking. In a way, it's thanks to the nature of the dwarves, who don't think about it anymore. By the third day, time was running out. At this time, Dagran, he was smiling all the time. In his heart, he kept recalling three things. One is the picture of his time with his father, mother, uncle and aunt from childhood to adulthood. One is the image of him mastering the Light and killing Grubis. The last one is a picture of him in the depths of the earth, swearing to Muradin, Kudran, and Oss as brothers with different surnames.
Gigax had already entered, and Oss gently hugged Dagran and said in his ear: "Third brother, from a certain point of view, fighting with Uncle Jigax is also a kind of protection. If you win, you may be able to protect your father, mother, uncles and aunts, and every fellow Black Iron. However, it doesn't matter if you lose, it is a victory to show yourself well in front of your father. ”
Dagran whispered in Oss's ear, "Fourth brother, thank you for everything. Not only for the sake of my relatives, for the sake of my fellow Black Iron, but also for you, I will definitely not lose! ”
Dagran let go of Os, he hugged his brothers one by one, and after glancing in his father's direction, he walked firmly towards Gigax.
Ten meters apart, Jigax and Dagran stood still. And Jigax stood casually like that, and he stretched out his left hand and beckoned to Dagran, saying, "Come on, boy! Let me see what you have to make Oss put all his hope on you! ”
Dagran looked at Gigax calmly, and his heart echoed what Gigax had just said, especially the two words - "hope".
Taking a deep breath, Dagran emptied his thoughts, clenched his hands into fists, and his body grew suddenly. As soon as he began, he directly changed into a stone form. Then he let out a loud shout, and an extremely faint earthy yellow light appeared on his body, and rushed towards Jigax!
The first move came in an instant, and it was a double fist against a double fist!
