Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Hero - Leah Maylis (Part II)
With the help of the light in the candlestick on the wall, Maylis sent the tip of her knife precisely to the muscle next to the crossbow arrow, and as soon as the tip of the knife pierced the skin, Maylis felt the resistance in front of her.
"Bron, you relax a little. Maylis gritted her teeth and said, "Otherwise, I won't be able to go under the knife." ”
Bronn didn't respond, just gritted his teeth and nodded, his beard trembling slightly with the twitching of the muscles on his face.
Maylis also knew that this was the instinctive protection of the human body, and Bron's muscles had already bitten the crossbow arrows tightly, and if she didn't deal with it quickly, even a strong person like Bronn would die of excessive blood loss.
Thinking of this, Maylis's eyes became sharp, her wrist slammed into her muscles, and the blade stabbed directly into the muscles, and the red blood instantly dyed the blade red.
Bron's breathing instantly became heavy, and Karin and Kanan, who could even see the whites of Bron's eyes that were rapidly congested and reddened, and these two former nobles couldn't help but sweat in their hearts.
This is the real warrior! Without going through the test of life and death and the painful ordeal, it is impossible to have such a strong will!
Maylis's job, as long as the muscles around the crossbow arrows are ripped open and the arrows are pulled out, sounds simple, but it is quite difficult to do, this kind of slashing saber, the blade is already sharp and thick, once the hand shakes, it may leave a larger wound.
On Bronn's right arm, blood flowed incessantly, converging in a small pool on the cold stone bricks, and Maylis's eyes could finally clearly see the arrows that were deeply stuck in the muscles, and there were even subtle barbs on the body of the crossbow arrows. Maylis stretched out her left hand, grabbed the tail of the bolt and pulled it back hard.
"Ahh
At this time, even if the linen cloth is not very clean, Maylis can't care so much. As soon as it was wrapped around a few times, the sackcloth was soaked with blood flowing out.
"That's not enough, let's do it again!"
The sleeves of Kanan and Carlin were torn to pieces, but the sackcloth had finally bandaged Bron's arm completely.
"This arrow seems to be poisonous!"
Carlin picked up the bloody arrow that was still on the ground, and suddenly exclaimed, "The design of this arrow, this is Kyrniro's trait!"
Hearing Carlin's voice, Maylis's heart jumped, and her eyes made contact with Brron, and the corners of Bron's mouth showed a smile that was even uglier than crying.
"This kind of weapon, Kyrnilo sold a lot of it here in the Deathfjord, but I didn't expect it to be available here. Carlin threw the arrow to the ground and sat down on the ground, "Lord Maylis, please mourn." ”
Maylis and Bronn were of course aware of this characteristic crossbow arrow of the Kelnilo, and they had suffered a lot of losses in the first few border battles with Kelnilo. On the arrow of this crossbow arrow, there is a small poison sac, once the target is shot, it will be crushed, and the poison will spread in the muscles and meridians, this poison is produced in the territory of Kelnilo A famous poisonous scorpion, coincidentally, this highly poisonous species, the whole continent is also only possessed by Kelnilo, because of this, Kelnilo also made a lot of war money.
Of course, this poison is not a threat at all to the powerful knights with fighting spirit, even if they are hit by crossbow arrows, they can rely on the fighting energy in their bodies to force the toxin out of the wound, but right now, the four of them have been sealed by the armband, and all Bronn can do now is to quietly wait for death to come.
"I'm sorry, Bron!"
Maylis knelt on the stone slab in pain, if she had stayed focused just now, Bronn would not have been hit by a crossbow arrow because of her, this feeling of watching her companion go from her side to death little by little was absolutely painful, and two lines of hot tears flowed down Maylis's cheeks.
"Your Excellency, you don't need to apologize to me, I used to be your subordinate, and as a soldier of Wishal, I have long been aware of death. Your life is much more precious than mine. A relieved smile appeared on Bron's face.
Karin and Kanan's eyes were suddenly full of respect when they looked at Bron, knowing that they would die and still face it calmly, this is the integrity of a soldier.
"But, you don't deserve to die!" Maylis's fists clenched tightly, her nails digging deep into her palms because of the force, and painful memories of the past suddenly appeared in her mind.
His companions died in front of him, he was accused of treason, and his family was shattered under the machinery of the empire, and he didn't even know how he was sent to Varshas Prison, and at that time, he just wanted to forget about the meeting, close himself, and quietly wait for death to come.
"Don't blame yourself, sir, you've done a good job. Broon suddenly turned to look at Karin and Kanan.
"Two archdukes, I still have something to say to my lords, can I trouble you to avoid it a little?"
Carlin nodded, Bronn was going to die, and at this point they would certainly respect Bron's decision.
Carlin and Kanan turned and quickly disappeared into the darkness of the corridor, and Bron patted Maylis, who was still immersed in grief.
"My lord, now you are a little less domineering than before. Bron's voice was very soft, as if he might die at any moment: "My lord, don't you want to take revenge? As an adjutant, I can't stand it, Wishaler may be about to change, but you have been sinking in prison, have you forgotten that your sister was still sent to Deathfjord by me?"
Maylis's body continued to tremble, her breathing became heavy, and the memories that had been sealed in the depths of her heart were awakened little by little.
"Sister...... Sister!" Maylis muttered, "My sister, not dead yet......"
"Of course I didn't die, but the war in the Fjords of Death continued, and it was very difficult to survive. Bron suddenly stretched out his arms and pulled Maylis up from the ground, and the wound on his arm cracked open due to the force, and blood was even pouring out of the tied linen strips.
Bron's face gradually turned pale, he could feel the difficulty of breathing, he could feel his life passing a little bit, and he bit the tip of his tongue violently, and Bron's eyes flashed.
"My lord, you are the star of hope of Wishal! You are the Purple Star Knight who once fought against the demon spirit in the White Ridge Mountains and sealed the sixth demon general Kasma! You are the knight who inherited the will of the sword saint Heinrich during the Demon Spirit Catastrophe, and you are the hero who was awarded the greatest title by the two empires-Leah Maylis! Your mission should not be lost in this Valshas! I can have a hunch that the continent will soon enter another major turmoil and disaster, you are a hero, and the hero should save and change the fate of mankind!"
The corners of Bron's mouth kept pouring red and blackened blood, and when the light returned, Maylis's teary eyes seemed to see that the adjutant who had fought with him on the battlefield had returned.
"Hero, Leah Maylis......" Maylis's mouth muttered, "Bron, you're right, I'm going to change, change my destiny......"
