Chapter 120: Blood and Glory
Under the bleak sun, Berto attacked with all his might, and his decades of adventure career have made his swordsmanship and skills unparalleled, and he has repeatedly made exquisite attacks, back defenses, dodges, and blocks, so that the Blood Dragon Knight has to be impressed.
The knight's sword swung in the air, making a crisp blow.
"For the goddess of the lake!"
"No, you should do it for yourself. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the two weapons collided again, and Bertor was panting and panting heavily, blood mixed with sweat flowing down his eye socket, making him barely able to open his left eye. The world in front of him was blood-red, and in this blood-like vortex, the Blood Knight's face was twisted, like a hungry and bloodthirsty beast. He did...... It's just that it still retains its human form.
"You are the bravest mortal I have ever met. But, you were so unlucky to meet me. ”
The Blood Dragon Knight repeated the taunting words again as he fought proudly. When the human knight was out of breath, he still didn't have the slightest change in physical fitness. Everything is so steady, so powerful, so fast......
In the blood light, the knight's sword flew, drawing a deadly arc in the air. Berto tried his best, barely dodging. The blade grazed his breastplate and brushed against his forehead, leaving a glaring scar on his bare skin. Blood covered his face.
Tallinnham could only pray from the sidelines, and he wanted to go up to help Berto, but he couldn't. This is a duel, and no one is allowed to come to the aid until one side falls, otherwise, the rules will be broken, and the twelve blood dragon knights behind the leader of the blood knights will immediately rush up and tear apart all living things.
Hearing only the muffled sound of steel clashing, the Blood Dragon Knight launched a short charge, and when he was close enough to Berto, he slammed his sword. Berto raised his sword with both hands and resisted with all his might, and the moment the blades collided with each other, a powerful force poured down, pressing Berto directly to the ground, and he almost fell to his knees, his hands struggling and trembling. The expression on his face was extremely painful.
"You're no match for me!"
"Admit it, surrender, I can make you die a happy death. ”
The Blood Dragon Knight sneered arrogantly.
However, it undoubtedly inspired the knight's determination to never give up.
"Never!"
Under the Blood Knight's astonished gaze, Berto got up again, and with all his might, the past passed through his mind like fragments. Yes, no longer for the goddess of the lake, but for his people, for his wife, for his family!
"You can kill me, but ...... You can never beat me!"
In desperation, Berto roared like a lion. The knight's sword struck hard, slashing at the enemy's neck.
The Blood Dragon Knight looked cold, and quickly drew his sword, and the Blood Knight's sword hit a half-circle in the air, and then blocked the human lord's long sword back.
With an elbow blow, Berto was sent straight away.
The old lord's breastplate had been smashed into a pit, and he gasped feebly, his blood clotting as if his old heart was making its last struggle.
"You have one last chance, surrender. In the name of knightly glory, I will give you a decent death. ”
The Blood Dragon Knight approached step by step. His sword was stained with the blood of the old lord, and it flowed down the blade to the tip of the sword, dripping to the ground.
"Don't think!"
Limping, Berto got to his feet again, he could barely stand on his feet, the blood solidifying his hair into bloody scabs. Scarred, he was still a knight. The never-say-die knight of Bretonnia.
In an instant, the Blood Dragon Knight's eyes flickered with no longer mockery and contempt, but respect. It was the bravest human knight he had ever seen. It seems that the knighthood of Bretonnia, abandoned by the times, has been found again, by this human knight who is not even a holy grail.
With a messy pace, Berto charged with his last breath. Of course, his pace, his speed, is not a charge at all in the eyes of others.
In the blood-red sight, Berto stabbed out with a sword, but his movements seemed to slow down in the eyes of the Blood Dragon Knight. The next moment, the Blood Knight dodged sideways while elbowing the old knight in the back with his steely arm.
Hearing only the sound of bones breaking, Berto could no longer withstand the ferocious blow, and fell to his knees heavily.
Gritting his teeth, he tried to get up again, but the Blood Dragon Knight didn't give him a chance anymore. I saw that he clenched the black and red heavy sword, and stabbed the old lord's calf with a sword, almost nailing him to the ground.
The brutal assassination made it impossible for Berto to get up again.
"It's over. You lose. ”
The Blood Dragon Knight said calmly. He walked up behind Berto, grabbed him by the hair, drew his bloody sword, and rested it on the old lord's neck.
"It's a pity. ”
Just as the blade was about to slit Berto's throat, the neighing of a war horse came from a distance. Tallinnham could no longer stand such torture. He must rescue Berto, at all costs. Vampires are devils, and they have no glory at all!
The Blood Dragon Knight straightened his posture to meet the enemy, but the moment this ordinary Kingdom Knight rushed towards him, the blade of the sword unexpectedly bloomed with dazzling golden light.
At this moment, the Blood Dragon Knight narrowed his eyes and couldn't help but take a big step back.
In the next second, Tarynham rolled over and dismounted, struggling to put Berto on his back. However, twelve blood knights had already come up from all sides.
Tallinnam stood straight, and he had to fight, like Berto, to the death. Even if there is no hope, you must die a glorious death. This is the Bretonnian Knight.
However, just when Talinham thought that today was his end, the leader of the Blood Knights waved his hand and motioned for all his men to retreat.
"Young man, I don't know where you come from. But, today, you guys have shown me real knights. You and your lords are commendable for their courage. In the name of knightly glory, you may go. ”
The leader of the Blood Dragon Knights said in a deep voice.
Tarlinham was a little unresponsive, he was already preparing to die here. However, he was caught off guard by the sudden reversal.
Berto, on horseback, was already dying, barely speechless.
Fight to the death or save your lord, even if there is only a glimmer of hope......
Ultimately, reason triumphs over emotion. Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Tallinnham helped the scarred Berto out of the woodland. He must rush back to the castle as soon as possible so that the physician can heal Lord Berto, and perhaps there is still a glimmer of hope. Yes, at this moment, saving Berto is more important than anything else.
