Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Brave

By the time Barthorem sprayed the holy water on the demon's face, the three people on the other side who were blocking the ghouls were almost exhausted, and Rui's magic quickly contained the ghouls' attack at first, but at such a close distance, the mage could not use all the advantages at all, and could only be exhausted to dodge the ghouls' attacks.

Rui wasn't a good fighter in hand-to-hand combat, after all, and was gradually losing the upper hand, and just when she felt that she was about to lose her resistance, a powerful arm pulled her backwards.

"Be careful!" is Endman. The warrior was covered in scars, and he quickly withdrew his left hand, holding down his stomach in pain. "You can't die, mage, damn me. ”

Only then did Rui realize that the clothes that had been pulled by Endman were stained with blood. "Endeman, you ......"

"Leave me alone, I should have died here a long time ago, in Asgard, I am a knight of the Guard, a knight who lives and dies with Asgard. With that, he swung his sword again to block the slash of a ghoul.

Tillin leaned on Endman's right shoulder. "Don't talk as if our Knights of the Kingsguard are inferior to yours. With that, he fended off the attack of the ghouls on the other side, and then helped Endman back away.

"You bastard, let me go, I should have died in battle when Asgard fell, the Guards were all wiped out, only I survived, why did they let me warn the Northern Knights, I would rather fight and die in Asgard with the other knights, they all died, only I was alive, do you understand? Tirin, do you understand!" Endman broke free of Tirin's hand and rushed forward again.

"Endman!" Tillin shouted his companion's name, but Endman ignored him and rushed into the group of ghouls without hesitation.

"Holy!" Tirin cursed, sword in his hand and charged after Endman.

The demon's howl finally stopped, and the holy water seeped down its neck, and Barthorem looked haughtily at the monster in front of him. "The Sarahs will make you pay back double. ”

The demon seemed to understand the warrior's provocation, and in a frenzy, he jerked his hand upwards in complete obsession with all the pain, and the force was so great that Barthorem was caught off guard, and the sword tore from his lower abdomen up to his ribs.

"Barthorem!" Cremens finally broke through the fear in his heart, raised his sword and slashed at the demon. The sword slashed into the demon's water-stained skull, digging deep into the bones. But the demon was still not mortally wounded, and he pulled his hand from Barthorem's right hand, which was no longer able to exert his full strength, and punched Cremens in the stomach, sending him far away.

Basorem poured another sip of holy water, but the severe injury made him unable to breathe anymore, and he coughed and spat it on the ground. The demon took the opportunity to draw his sword and stab him in the left chest again.

This time Basorem didn't dodge again, he knew that the result would be the same whether he could hide or not, he just wanted to hold off the demon for a while. The warrior threw away the bottle, and with the last of his strength he grabbed the demon's right hand. "Stan...... Quick, cut his neck...... Neck, ...... fast"

Stan is infected by Barsorem's tragic behavior, and struggles with his inner fear as much as he can, and when he sees that Basorem is still trying his best to hold off the demon during his near-death experience, Stan suddenly feels that he is no longer afraid, and his hands can even be raised, but his feet are still like lead, and he can't move a single step.

At this point, Rui ran up to Stan just in time and began to chant a spell in his mouth, and Stan felt a psychic fire burn from the depths of his heart, and the knight's whole body was filled with power again. The knight, who had broken through the shackles of fear, raised the obsidian sword in his hand and rushed behind the demon in a few steps, the blade of which slashed accurately through the demon's neck, which was still dripping with holy water.

Barthorem felt the demon's arm suddenly lose its strength, and he pulled out the sword that had pierced his chest, and fell to his knees.

"Barthorem!" Stan and Kremence hurriedly ran forward to help the Captain Knights.

On the other side, the ghouls stopped moving after the demon died, but stood there, letting Tirin slash wildly and splatter his stumps. At Tirin's feet was Endman's body lying on the ground.

"I can't do it, you leave me alone, let's go, go to Talheim. Basorem held on to his last words.

"Barthorem ......" Cremens looked at his chief sadly, tears streaming down his face.

"Remember, Cremens, you must leave Sara and go south. Basorem glanced at his junior and began to cough incessantly.

Tirin walked over with Endman's body and placed it beside Barsorem. "Endman is dead, are you going to leave us too, Basorem?"

Basorem didn't even have the strength to raise his hand to wipe the blood from his mouth. "Tirin, I always thought you would die before Endman, but I didn't expect the fire in his heart to burn more than yours. ”

Just when everyone was still immersed in grief, Rui suddenly felt the three dark tide forces that had left before rushing here. "It seems that the other three teams of Dark Tide have already felt the destruction of this team, and they are here again, and they will soon be in the city. Rui wiped the tears from her cheeks, she had been sobbing silently since the beginning, and the few of her remaining compatriots were now dead before her eyes, and the other was about to disappear.

Exhausted, Basorem took one last look at everyone. "Go quickly, and go north. ”

"No, Basorem, I'm going to stay here!" cried out Kremens, unwilling to leave.

"It's an order!" Barthorem said vigorously, then coughed violently.

Tirin patted the young warrior on the shoulder. "Let's go, Kremens, your mission is not over, escort them to Talheim, let Basorem die in glory, we will only embarrass him here. ”

Cremens wiped away his tears and stood up. "Barthorem, I will complete your orders, don't worry!"

Basorem didn't speak, the fire of his life was about to burn to the end.

Everyone bowed deeply to Basorem and the dead Enderman, and then everyone turned to leave.

"Stan, please stay, I have one more thing to ask of you. Basorem suddenly stopped Stan.

Stan motions for the other three to go first, then turns around. "Say it, Basorem, whatever it is, I'll promise you. ”

Barsorem tells Stan something in the briefest of words and asks him to let Rei know when the time is right, before he lowers his head and places his hands on his knees. "Give me a ride...... I don't want to be ...... when three demons find me. I'm alive. ”

"As you wish. Stan's eyes reddened as he raised his sword and clasped his hands in front of his chest. "May the God of Warriors be with you, may glory shine upon you, your body will be immortal, your soul will be immortal, death is not terrible, death is only another beginning of life, and you will always walk in the light. ”

Rui and the two warriors had already run out of Asgard, and they had run all the way they had taken the route they had taken when the eliminated Darktide Squad arrived, leaving Asgard behind in the blink of an eye. The moon was clearly visible overhead, and the whole land was even brighter than it was before nightfall. Rui looked behind him and saw a tall, burly warrior chasing after them. "It's Stan. The mage's hanging heart was also relaxed.

Kremence asked Stan, who was running half a body behind him, "What did Basorem say to you?"

Rui and Tirin on the side didn't look at them, still running ahead of them, they already knew what Basorem was calling Stan for.

Stan thought for a moment before he said slowly, "He doesn't want to die at the hands of the demons, he's a true hero, and so is Endman, and so are all the Sarahs." ”

Rui turned to look at Stan, whose eyes were red, "You too, Stan, and everyone who resists the Dark Tide. ”

Cremens understood what Stan meant, and stopped talking.

The group ran quickly to the north, and a trace was deeply engraved in everyone's heart.
