Russell was heading to a stronghold of the Blood of Oath with Dalifin, and Russell was confident in his judgment, but Dalifen had some concerns. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
But before Russell could reach the stronghold of the Blood of Oath, he and Dalifen were already surrounded by some people, Buckley, the head of the Slave Guild's Discipliner, personally stepped out, and many slave leaders such as Abbas and Kenway also appeared here, Russell was sweating, but still forced a smile.
"Boss, why are you here with so many people?" Russell forced himself to laugh before asking, Dalifen beside him already shaking.
"Hmph, what are you going to do?" Barkley said coldly.
"I'm ...... Aren't I going to have a drink with Dalifen, and the boss is going to come with me too? Russell said with a smile, smiling on the surface, but nervous inside, and he felt the murderous look on Barkley's face.
"Hey, Russell, Russell, where are you and Daliphon going for a drink?, are you going to the Blood of Oath?" said a female slave leader named Isabel with a smile.
Isabel was only twenty-seven years old, but she had become one of the most powerful slave leaders among the punisters, and Isabel was a clever and eloquent man to Barkley's admiration.
Russell saw that Barkley already knew everything, so he put down his smiling face and looked at Barkley coldly, Barkley gritted his teeth and looked angry, while many slave leaders, such as Abbas, had a lively expression, and Kenway looked nervous.
"Everything I do, it's for the punisher!" Russell said strongly.
Dalifen looked at Russell, then at Barkley, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, thinking in his heart what to do, although Dalifen was very confident in his strength, but Barkley came here with many slave leaders to round up Russell, and Dalifen also knew that he could not fight with so many people.
"For the sake of the Punisher, is that why you murdered the Punisher with the Blood of Oath?" Barkley said with a sneer, which made Russell frown.
"I'm going to go to the blood of the oath now, but to say that I'm the one who murdered the Punisher is nonsense without evidence! Don't wronged me!" Russell said angrily.
"How dare you say I'm talking nonsense?hey, Kenway, tell him what you've heard!" Barkley snapped.
At this time, all eyes were focused on Kenway's body, Kenway looked back at the slave leaders who were with him, they all nodded, giving Kenway a little confidence, Kenway straightened his chest and stood up.
"I heard Russell say to Dalifen, boss...... The boss is a ......" Kenway looked at Barkley, a little afraid to speak.
"Oh, Kenway, just say what you have, anyway, you're narrating Russell's words, and the boss won't blame you. At this point, Isabel smiled and said softly, then looked at Barkley with wide eyes, and Kenway looked at Barkley with uneasiness.
"Hmph, just say it, I won't blame you!" Barkley said in a loud voice, and Kenway relieved himself and nodded slightly.
"I heard Russell say that the boss is a fool and there is no need to be afraid of the boss, and that his own slave market is already very large, and that Evel can betray the Blade, so it is not a big deal to betray the punisher!" Kenway said everything Russell said in one breath, which made Dalifen's face pale, Russell stared at Kenway coldly, Barkley looked angry, Abbas and Isabel said they stood aside and laughed, and the other slave leaders said that they were talking about it.
"Hmph! I'll tell you again, everything I did was for the punisher!" Russell said coldly.
Russell already knew that it was useless to talk too much at this time, he took out two battle axes from behind him, Russell was ready to fight, he calculated, everyone in the punisher said that they were selfish, so these slave leaders would not necessarily fight to the death for Buckley, so he and Dalifen still had a chance to rush out.
At this time, Barkley glanced at Isabel, Isabel smiled and nodded confidently, and Barkley also nodded.
"Dalifen, I don't think you want to get away from the Punisher, do you?" said Isabel to Dalifen with a smile, which made both Russell and Dalifen shudder.
"I'm ......" Dalifen lowered his head, a little overwhelmed.
"Dalifen, don't listen to this bitch's nonsense!" Russell immediately became nervous when he saw Dalifen's appearance, and Russell knew what Isabel meant, so he quickly roared.
Russell...... I think you'd better ask the boss for forgiveness!" said Dalifen softly.
"You idiot! they're trying to divide us!" Russell yelled anxiously.
"Dalifen, the boss wants to give you a chance to repent, because Kenway also said that you also persuaded Russell at that time, so you definitely don't want to betray the punisher. Isabel chuckled and said, which seemed to give Dalifen some hope, and Russell even more despair, Dalifen looked at Barkley expectantly, while Russell glared at Isabel.
"Dalifen, you go and kill Russell, so I'll be guilty of your past. Barkley said coldly.
After listening to Barkley's words, Dalifen looked at Russell uneasily, and Russell glared at Dalifen, usually Russell and Dalifen have the best relationship, but at this time, the two turned their faces faster than turning the book, Dalifen had already raised his giant sword and tower shield, facing Russell.
"Russell, don't blame me, blame yourself, why do you have to question the boss's decision, why do you want to betray the punisher, I'm also for the punisher, so don't blame me. Dalifin said in a loud voice, as if he was afraid that Barkley would not hear him, and Russell just sneered.
Russell raised his twin battle axes and rushed straight towards Dalifin, towards Russell no longer wanting to escape, he had only one purpose, that is, to kill Dalifen, and Dalifen set up a tower shield and waited for Russell's attack.
Russell knew that with his own strength, it would be difficult to defeat Dalifen, but at this time, Russell was completely fighting for his life, which also made it difficult for Dalifen to adapt, after all, Dalifen still wanted to live.
Russell frantically slashed with his twin axes, and Dalifen struggled with his tower shield, and Dalifen seemed to have no chance to fight back.
"Dalifin, are you so soft-hearted that you won't kill Russell?" said Isabel at this point, which made Dalifen nervous again, and he was afraid that Barkley would blame himself for not doing his job.
Dalifen put his heart sideways at this time, he suddenly pushed out the tower shield, and after blocking Russell's blow, he used the giant sword to cut straight down, but Russell was very sensitive to avoid the blow, and then, Dalifen pushed forward with the tower shield, and deliberately exposed the arm holding the tower shield in front of Russell, Russell saw the opportunity, and chopped down with an axe, Dalifen wanted to retract his arm, but found that the movement was a step slower, and this dangerous move really made Dalifen pay the price, only to see Dalifen's arm fall to the ground with the tower shield, but at the same time, Dalifen's giant sword was also cut down, and Russell's half-pulled head was cut off。
Dalifen dragged his broken arm, panting, and looked at Barkley tiredly, who sneered, and Abbas smiled even more happily.
"Haha, Brother Dalifen, it seems that from now on, you won't even be able to beat me. Abbas sarcastically said that before that, Dalifen always thought very highly of himself, but many people couldn't do anything about it, because they really couldn't beat Dalifen, and now, these people are looking at jokes.
"Someone, take Dalifen's weapon!" Barkley ordered coldly, and then several slave leaders walked towards Dalifen, much to Dalifen's horror.
"Don't be afraid, the boss just took your weapon and asked you to go back and recuperate your injuries, and when you recover from your injuries, you will make meritorious contributions to the punisher in the future. Isabel smiled and said softly.
Dalifen was relieved, because he knew that Isabel's words were equivalent to Buckley's order, and Dalifen handed the greatsword to the slave leader who stepped forward, and then the other slave leader dressed and bandaged Dalifen's severed arm, and then walked down with Dalifen.
Not far away, Christine, Spencer Jessica, and the seven shadowheads of the Shadowgate, Max, Elizabeth, Miranda, Sansa, Blanco, Martin, and Beckham, were all watching the show, and when it ended, everyone laughed.
"It seems that the good relationship between the blood of the oath and the punisher has broken down. Miranda's ears were straight and she looked excited, and the bunny spirit liked that the situation the most.
"But we still need to make the blood of oath and the punisher a little more lively so that we have a better chance. Christine said softly, while everyone else nodded.
"Now, then, I'll go and meet our old friend Dalifen for a while, he's so arrogant in my shop that it's time for him to die in his house. Sansa sneered, she had always been a half-winged man with revenge.
"Perhaps this is a great opportunity for us at the Shadowgate. Max was always weak, but unusually calm.
"What do you mean?" said Martin, the snake man, with a wicked smile on his face, he was a very smart fellow, so he guessed what Max meant.
"Annihilate the Punisher in one fell swoop!" Max's voice was weak, but it was full of confidence.
"But with the annihilation of the Punisher, won't the balance in Saluli Bay be upset?" Blanco, who had always been cautious, frowned and said softly.
"The balance of Saruli Bay has ceased to exist since the time when the Blood of Oath and the Punisher allied to flank our Shadow Gate, so I agree with Max. The handsome Beckham said in a crisp voice.
"Yes, it was the Punisher who took the lead in attacking our Shadow Gate, so it's time for us to fight back. Elizabeth exclaimed.
"So, since the balance in Saruli Bay has been broken, let's let it be completely unbalanced. Max said coldly.
"Thank you for your help, the Shadowgate is our best ally in the Free Frontiers. Jessica smiled, she felt that these thieves were not so annoying at this time.
"We're just working for the Shadowgate, so let's work together. Max said softly.
Christine looked at the slave leaders who were gradually dispersing, and her heart also felt more confident that she had to rescue Natasha, because that was her most important friend.
