Chapter 584: A Man with a Heart Uglier Than His Face
Susan's fiancΓ© Stuart's sudden backlash surprised everyone present, and Susan was even more stunned and pointed her finger at him and shouted: "You actually betrayed me and my father, you killed my father, you traitor!"
"That's right, I've been on the orders of Grand Chief Grlot to find you from the beginning," Stuart said, standing beside the Tyke Patriarch Tyan, glancing at Susan and the others, "The purpose is to lead you to the Tyron Barrier and kill you all!"
"That's why you planted a powder keg in front of the checkpoint last night, killing the Sur chief. www.biquge.infoRogge looked at Stuart's ugly beastly face with cold eyes and asked, "What benefit did Grote give you to betray your lover and kill her father?"
"Then it's none of your business. Stuart smiled triumphantly at the protruding fangs at the corners of his mouth, and pointed at Rogge mockingly, saying, "But I have to thank you, if you hadn't fallen into my trap so easily, how could I have killed you so easily?"
He turned back to Tai'an, the patriarch of the Taike tribe beside him, and said, "Patriarch, I'll leave it to you, kill them." β
"You bastard!" Susan angrily took off the double-edged battle axe from her waist and rushed towards Stuart, but Rogge reached out to stop him, only to see him say loudly to Stuart, "Wait a minute, do you think this is the end of it?"
Stuart stared back at him in astonishment, only to see him put two fingers to his lips and whistle loudly, and a moment later the camp was full of killings, and a large number of orc soldiers of the Kabu and Wolf tribes surrounded Turt, Tai'an, and their troops from all sides.
"How, how is that possible?" Stuart looked at the soldiers who seemed to have emerged from the ground in surprise, and only heard Rog smile mysteriously and said, "Do you really think that Patriarch Karn only brought a few men? In fact, he brought 30,000 troops, and all of them have entered the checkpoint. β
Stuart and Tai'an looked at each other in astonishment, only to see the little furball flapping its wings and landing on Rogge's shoulder and saying loudly: "Bad wolf, patriarch grandpa, several camps have been ours, those who don't surrender have been killed, and everyone else has surrendered!"
"Well done, little villain!" Rogge touched his fingers to the little furball's fluffy little head, nodded back to Karn, and looked at Stuart, "You think you're acting perfectly, but in fact you've left a lot of flaws. β
"First of all, the orcs don't have the technology to process gunpowder, and the dwarves won't trade gunpowder with you, so the powder keg that killed the Sur patriarch can only come from looted arsenals on the human border, and not too much. β
"The use of so many powder kegs this time means that you have taken out all the powder kegs that have been accumulated for a long time, and this is by no means a matter that the patriarch of a small clan can decide on the fly, so it will not be Tai'an, the chief of Taike, who will set this trap, but the great chief Grot. β
Speaking of this, Rogge saw that Stuart and Tai'an's faces became very ugly, and he pointed his finger at Stuart and said, "Since the premeditator of this matter is Grote, then he will never send a person who is related to Sur and is not worthy of his trust, unless that person has already taken refuge in him!"
"So you already knew he was a traitor!" Susan looked at Rogge in surprise, and Rogge turned around and said to her apologetically: "I'm sorry, in fact, when I came back from the Tyron level, I already knew, but I didn't tell you, for fear that you wouldn't believe it and couldn't accept it, so I only secretly arranged everything with Patriarch Karn." β
Susan shook her head vigorously with her hands over her mouth, and took a painful step back, Catherine and Tali stepped forward to support her, only to hear Rogge continue to say to Stuart, "And the second point, you think I was persuaded by you in the cell, but your words only deepened my suspicion of you. β
"Just imagine, when the patriarch of a clan is arrested for collaborating with the enemy, how can he still have military power under his henchmen and not be arrested?"
"Not only that, but your clan is still staying on the retreat road at the rear of the checkpoint, in case your arrest leads to a rebellion, the enemy army and the rebel army will join forces, and the checkpoint will immediately change hands! Could it be that Tai'an and Grote are fools who will let the traitor's subordinates cause chaos in the checkpoint?"
Tai'an and Stuart exchanged glances with each other, and there was a hint of remorse in their eyes, as if they were regretting that they hadn't thought of these details, and at this time Rogge spoke again: "Third, remember when I asked you that the clothes and armor of the two tribes are the same, won't you not recognize who is who?"
He looked back at the little furball on his shoulder and said, "Before the Sur Patriarch was ready to attack, Lilith used to come here to do reconnaissance, and she told me that the orcs here are all dressed and looked the same, and she couldn't tell who is who, I was suspicious at the time, but unfortunately I couldn't stop the Sur Chief. β
"After I came to the Tyron level, this question became deeper in my mind, and I observed that there was no difference between all the soldiers and officers, including the military flag, and if it were a human army, without any different signs, there would definitely be a situation where there would be a rebellion within the army. β
Rogge said and looked at Antonio, the knight leader nodded meaningfully, Rogge sneered at Stuart and said: "But you said lightly that you must be able to recognize your own people, which makes me feel very suspicious, in the absence of any different identification, thousands of people can distinguish their own people, there is only one answer......"
He pointed his finger at Turt and Tai'an and said, "That is, this army belongs to only one tribe at all, the so-called Turek tribal army does not exist at all, all the soldiers here are members of the Taike tribe, and you, Turt, are just a lonely man who was sent here by Grote to be a traitor!"
Stuart, who had been completely torn apart, turned back to Tai'an beside him in a fit of rage, and Tai'an waved his hand and shouted, "Kill them!" All the archers let go of their tightened bowstrings in unison, and countless arrows shot at Karn and the others with a "whoosh" sound.
I saw three dazzling flashes of light, Antonio, Tali and Monica, the little flower spirit shot at the same time, the divine shield, the leaf barrier and the water shield shrouded everyone's body at the same time, and the arrows shot by the orcs fell on the ground around them, and everyone under the protection of the three layers of shields was safe and sound.
Seeing this, the soldiers of the Kabu tribe and the poisonous wolf tribe on the periphery moved together, and the rain of arrows rained down on the Taike orc soldiers, and the Taike orc soldiers fell to the ground screaming, and the soldiers who were not hit by the arrows turned around and brandished their giant axes and war hammers and rushed towards the soldiers of the two tribes, but they were outnumbered and quickly killed.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Tai'an, the patriarch of the Taike tribe, took out two single-edged axes from his back and was about to rush towards Rogge and the others, but Tuart, who was beside him, suddenly pulled out a short knife from his waist and stabbed him in the back, Tai'an looked back at him in surprise, and Tuert pulled out his knife and slashed him to the ground with another knife.
Stuart's behavior was beyond the expectations of everyone present, only to see Stour throw away the blood-stained dagger in his hand, take two steps forward and kneel down to Susan and say: "Susan, I'm sorry, this matter is really not my willingness, Grote has detained my people, if I don't do this, he will kill them all!"
Susan stared at him expressionlessly, Stuart fell to the ground with tears streaming down her eyes and confessed her guilt to Susan, Susan stared at him quietly for a moment and walked towards him, Catherine behind her subconsciously grabbed her arm and shook her head.
Susan gently pushed her away and walked to Stuart's side melancholy, Swart looked up and wiped her tears and looked at her with a begging look, Susan walked in front of him to Tai'an's corpse and picked up a tomahawk that Tai'an had dropped from the ground.
"Susan?" Stuart glanced at the axe in Susan's hand in horror, looked up and said to Susan tremblingly: "Susan, please forgive me, I really have no choice, I have already killed Tai'an, I know that this will not make up for my sins against the Sul patriarch, but please give me a chance to atone for my sins!"
"I'll give you a chance. Susan threw the axe in front of Stuart and said to him coldly, "Pick up the axe, according to the rules of the tribe, duel with me, if you can win me, I will let you go, if you lose, you will pay for my father's life!"
"No, Susan, no, I'm not going to do anything with you!" Stuart cried out as he grabbed Susan's legs.
"Go away, don't force me to cut off your head right now!" Susan kicked him away with her foot, put the double-edged battle axe in her hand around his neck and said, "Take it, stand up like a man, and duel me, I'll only give you ten seconds, and if you don't do what I say, I'll crush your head right now!"
Stuart looked down at the battle axe lying in front of him, hesitated for a moment and slowly stretched out his hand to hold the handle of the battle axe, Susan turned back to everyone and said: "This is my duel with him, according to the rules of the tribe, no one can interfere, life and death are borne by each other, if I die, you let him go." β
Rog, Antonio, Catherine, and Tali looked at each other and turned their gazes to Karn, the old patriarch of the Ka'b clan, who nodded meaningfully to Susan and said, "I see what you mean, son, I'll preside over this matter, don't worry." β
Susan nodded slightly in reassurance, bowed her head to Stuart, and said, "Stand up." After saying that, he turned around and walked to the side, Stuart glanced up at her back, slowly got up from the ground, and peeked at Rogge and the others as he got up.
As he straightened up and stood on his feet, he suddenly strode towards Susan, who had not yet gone far, and raised his battle axe to the back of her head and slashed it down.
