Section 13 The Dance of the Duel
Fearing that Caterina would be injured, Rex walks up to her before the duel begins, whispering to her to give up revenge, as Barbas has already paid a terrible price. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Catalina unceremoniously kicked him back and warned him not to interfere again, otherwise he would never be forgiven. She said that the humiliation suffered by her sister must be avenged by her inflicting the same amount of harm on the murderer.
Helde led the three of them out of the magic hall and into the courtyard outside. Barbas and Caterina will have a thrilling duel here. Rex knows Babas's strength, and he also knows Katerina's fighting ability. He doesn't think she's a match for Barbas, and even if she tries her best, she can't beat her, and the title of Demon God Guardian is the best proof of his strength.
Graybeard is the embodiment of justice, and Master Helder and Master Chadwick will oversee the duel. Rex also hopes that this duel will end their grievances, and does not want to see the two old friends hate each other again. The endless revenge made his heart ache.
Rex followed the two masters as they stood in front of the courtyard statues. Babas and Caterina stood on either side of the courtyard, glaring at him with fierce and angry eyes, as if she wanted to kill him with her eyes. Barbas stood across from him with a blank face and a calm look. This look made her even more angry, and he was not ashamed of his anger.
"Are you ready?" asked Master Chadwick.
"I'm ready, Master. Barbas replied.
"What about you?" Chadwick asked her.
"I'm getting impatient, Master. Caterina replied.
"Okay, then the duel begins. For your damned revenge, fight with courage. ”
Barbas and Catalina are like two wolves fighting for territory, ready to fight. Caterina had a fierce look in her eyes, as if she was going to swallow Babas alive.
Rex was distraught, he couldn't stop Caterina from taking revenge, he couldn't stop the duel, he had to hope that they wouldn't lose both, and that it would be best if they could change their minds and shake hands.
Finally, he wanted to make an effort and shouted at Katerina, "Hey, think about it again and forgive him!"
"Talky! She didn't curse angrily.
"Child, you don't have to worry. Master Helde smiled and said slowly, "It will be a matter of time before she seeks revenge on Barbas." Caterina is an Avenger, and you can't stop her. ”
"Hmm. Rex nodded wistfully.
Caterina took the initiative to attack, as vigorous as a spirit fox, she did not rush directly to attack Babas, and used the left and right dodge forward. Trying to create an assassination opportunity by distracting him, as a good Assassin, her offensive strategy was undoubtedly perfect, well thought out and flawless.
As for the fight against her, Babas is not worried. He had defeated her before, and he was still confident that he could defeat her in this duel. Therefore, Barbas waited in place without hurry, and his movements were methodical. The dagger stabbed him in the chest, and Barbas jumped up like a set spring, dodging her blade.
He didn't expend a little stamina, and easily completed the dodge. Realizing that her intentions had been recognized, Caterina drew back the blade she had stabbed out in time, reversed her hand in the direction that Barbas was about to land, and swung her sword again.
It was clear that it was impossible to land and dodge her blade. Pabas backhanded the long sword on his back, and at the same time the tip of the sword was pointed to the left, just changing the direction of the short sword. She brushed past him again, and Barbas landed a punch that hit her left cheek.
"Ahh
"Be careful. Rex shouted anxiously from the side.
Caterina turned her head to look at Rex and yelled, "Don't talk, you're going to distract me." ”
Rex had no choice but to quiet down. The two Greybeards were not surprised by Katerina's defeat, they were surprisingly calm, as if they were watching an inconsequential performance.
"Get up, little girl, puff up your poor little muscles to fight, I thought you would be stronger, stronger than I am," said Barbas. Unfortunately, you are still so fragile and vulnerable. I'm disappointed in you!"
Caterina was humiliated and furious. Like a fish falling to the ground, she hunched over, jumped into the air with her hands and feet, and then stood up steadily. Rex saw a distinct red mark appear on her face, which was caused by Barbas's fist.
She touched her red and swollen cheeks, picked up the dagger that had fallen to the side, held it in her hand, and glared angrily. After a brief adjustment, she was attacking again. This time, she stopped dodging and took a frontal attack.
So, holding the hilt of her sword, she rushed straight over with a loud shout. Use your quick reflexes and quick dodge to fight Barbas in hand-to-hand combat. She thought that as long as she didn't get caught, she would be able to happily plunge the blade into his heart.
Caterina's blade struck the weakest part of Babas's body defenses each time. In order to protect herself, Babas constantly restrained her attack with dual swords. After a stalemate in the struggle, she fired her bow left and right, the dagger like a swimming dragon, surrounding Babas, waiting for an opportunity to take his life.
On one occasion, Barbas made an error in calculating the distance the blade would reach the neck, and as a result, she was unable to dodge and was cut by her short sword with a trail of blood. He felt a cold stinging pain in his collarbone, and the blade flashed in front of his eyes. Fortunately, he escaped backwards and avoided the danger of having his artery cut.
Then, the two fought with fists and kicks. Katerina's punches are fast, but not powerful, and each time she punches Barbas in the face or waist, it's like hitting cotton and being weak. Those well-developed, muscular muscles act like a pair of armor that counteracts the power of Katerina's fists and protects his internal organs and organs from damage. After dodging two blows, Babas figured out how and where she punched.
When she threw her third punch, he struck with a dash. As soon as Caterina's fist was extended, he lunged at her with a scream, grabbing her forearm at the back of her wrist. Turn around again, lift her up and hang her in the air to draw a circle, and then throw her on the ground, like throwing a dead fish. Katerina felt as if her arm had been pinched, and the pain was so severe that it was unbearable. However, before the pain was over, she fell to the ground in a daze, and half of her body slammed into the ground, and she almost fainted.
Barbas punched one punch after another, and the fists rained down. At first, she raised her hands to protect her head to resist a few times, but gradually lost her strength, lying on the stone pavement without the ability to dodge, and was beaten and kicked.
Seeing this, Rex couldn't bear to look any further, and was about to jump up to stop Barbas from beating her. But he was stopped by the master Chavik, "This is a duel between the two of them, you can't help." ”
"But, if this continues, Caterina will be killed. Rex shouted.
"Rest assured, believe me, nothing like this will ever happen. "But their duels must be fair, and no one will be allowed to help, you know?"
Rex felt helpless, so he had to give up the idea of intervening in the duel, and watched in pain as they fought each other.
The beating continued, and Rexjue's Barbas seemed to hit him with every punch, his heart fluttering with the muffled sound of the punch hitting his body.
However, this duel, which seemed doomed, took a turn of events that surprised everyone. Somehow, Caterina had gotten her dagger and stabbed it into Barbas's heart with great accuracy. The dagger pierced through the heart and stabbed out of his back, piercing through his body. Blood flowed slowly down from the tip of the sword.
Barbas snorted and clutched his chest and looked at Caterina in surprise. He was like a stone statue, which fell to the ground.
The three were taken aback and hurried into battle. Master Helde immediately used healing techniques to stop Babas's bleeding and prevent him from bleeding to death. Master Chadwick snatched Katerina's sword and tossed it aside. Rex rushed over and saw that Caterina had been beaten beyond recognition, the corners of her mouth and eyes cracked, and her eye sockets swollen and blue.
"This is the end of the duel, take them into the alchemy room," Master Helde ordered, "save your life." ”
Chadwick picked up Babas, Rex carried Katarina, and Helde led the way, and they hurried back to the alchemy room on the second floor. Rex assists Master Helder in preparing to perform healing surgeries on the two.
After three hours of healing, Master Helde finally saved Barbas from the clutches of death. When his condition stabilized, he was arranged to move back to his room. As for Katerina's injuries, they were all caused by beatings and were not fatal. So, Helder cleaned those wounds and applied the medicine.
At this time, Rex's tight heart finally settled.
When it was time for dinner, Babas and Katrina were still sleeping, and Graybeard Karlovak Mir appeared in the cafeteria on the second floor with two students. Karlovak Mir was a thin old man, with a shriveled mouth, sunken eyes, a pale face, and a gray beard. Rex suspected that the Greybeards' beards were sticked, and they looked exactly the same.
The eyes were plain gray, without the changeable red of Held. Karovak Mir spoke in a thick nasal voice, as if he were not pronounced through his mouth, but directly through his nostrils.
Rex finished his toast and began to drink, drinking the mead that Master Helder had brought. Then he remembered the commission of the poet Malenori, took the secret letter from his bosom, and gave it to Held.
