Chapter 400: Liberation from Freedom
What was once a slave camp became a battlefield for two former slaves.
The Major stepped back, a battle distance, and out of nowhere, Snow Wolf grabbed a long sword and delivered it to him. Qi Lang could see very clearly that it should be Andy's own sword, which had been kept intact by his fateful companion.
"Are you ready?" the major nodded to Qi Lang with his sword folded in both hands, and at the same time exuded the aura on his body. As Qi Lang had judged before, his combat level was between low-level Douzun and middle-level Douzun, and there was no doubt that he was the man in black, the mysterious man who had been chasing and hiding with Qi Lang for a while in the Snow Wolf Canyon.
And even a long time ago, Qi Lang had also encountered him on the shore of Nalong Lake, and that time his subordinates showed mercy, and the sword that attacked from behind left room for leeway, and did not directly kill Qi Lang. Recalling the situation at that time, if he really launched an attack with all his might, at least at that time, Qi Lang would not have been able to get out smoothly, he let out an exclamation at the time, Qi Lang thought that it was his own defense that surprised the opponent, but now it seems that he recognized himself at all and deliberately let himself go.
"I'm ready. Qi Lang waved his hand to Igro, motioning for him to step aside and watch the battle in peace, while he still wondered if there was a chance to turn the tide in front of him.
Andy's previous actions can be called abnormal. He should never have been so defeated that he had pushed all his followers into this pocket formation—Major Dodim was a good commander, calm, decisive, analytical, and had a very clear sense of the situation on the battlefield. And this time, the layout of the old Henry is perfect. But for a battle-hardened commander, that certainly can't escape his eyes. In fact, he could have scattered the believers and withdrawn from the various paths, which might take some time, but at least the loss could have been avoided, and it was entirely possible for him to save his strength in the hope of making a comeback.
On the other hand, what if the Major led most of his men to the west? With Lieutenant Colonel William's command, even though Captain Steve's support in the air was very strong, they still had a good chance of breaking through.
Besides. He could have had a chance to take advantage of the prisoners, including Marcus and Quill, which was one of his trump cards, enough to make the soldiers who came to encircle him jealous.
But he ended up obediently getting into the pocket, as if he had seen that there wasn't going to be a killing there.
It seems that he actually repented. He intends to correct his previous mistakes with a complete defeat!
But why did he have to choose to duel here?
Qi Lang was sure that he would win. And even if the major won the duel. He certainly can't get out, Captain Steve is a little inferior in strength, but there are still a lot of soldiers here, and he is just alone with a snow wolf.
The soldiers all around him drew their bows and arrows, and even Captain Steve's face was cloudy. He took a few steps closer and tried to get to Qi Lang's side. I want to be a part of this showdown. Preventing King Zonghao from being injured in the Luman Empire's military campaign was also one of his most important tasks in this operation, and he really couldn't afford to have another accident happen when the war was over.
"Rest assured. Captain Steve. Qi Lang waved his hand at him, "I can be sure that Mr. Major can't hurt me, that's not his will at all." ”
Qi Lang pulled out the sword of honor in his hand, and the silver-white sword body was flashing with holy brilliance. Qi Lang figured it out a little. It must be so, Andy thinks his soul is polluted, and he wants to cleanse it with the light of the holy sword - he is not joking, but sincerely wants to seek the liberation of death!
"I know what you want, Major, but what I'm trying to say is that it's not necessary at all. Qi Lang said in a deep voice, "And I won't satisfy you, I will definitely not satisfy you!"
"That's necessary. The Major smiled faintly, "I've been looking forward to that moment all the time, it's been a long time, I've been looking forward to it since I forgot my name. Except that I will never be able to get rid of it. ”
Dodim bared his threatening teeth and roared to the side, as if to remind Andy not to say anything more meaningless, and that it was time to get serious.
As Dodim wished, the Major rushed forward, waving his sword in his hand: "I will not show mercy to my subordinates, and I hope you will do the same!"
He made a move, and the gale broke the sea!
That sword Qi Lang had seen, it was a sword comparable to Quiel's furious thunder, as if dozens of swords or hundreds of swords were swinging at the same time, and the sword qi cut through the air and made a brushing sound. That sword could cut a multi-ton boulder into pieces, and on that treacherous path in Mount Newi, Qi Lang had seen Captain Dodim perform this trick at the time, and the object he wanted to protect when he drew his sword was not Major William hiding in the carriage, but Qi Lang, a nobody.
Qi Lang can take this sword, and he only needs to take out half of his strength, and he can completely knock back the major's attack. But he didn't, because he couldn't do it at all.
With a vertical figure, Qi Lang jumped away from afar. His forehead was already sweating.
The major did not sympathize with the battle between heaven and man in Qi Lang's heart, and still stubbornly rushed to kill, and his steps were extremely fast. And his speed Qi Lang had also seen it, on the plain in front of Hickburg, Captain Dodim fell behind, and fought desperately with Vignesh's tough opponent, and finally rushed across the border with Qi Lang, who was almost unsupportable.
Qi Lang had nothing to do, in the face of such an opponent, he would be afraid of it for the first time, because he was so afraid of the result - piercing his body with the holy sword!
"What are you still hesitating about?" Finally, Andy stood still with a sad and indignant expression, "Could it be that my humble background is not worthy of the full strength of your noble king?"
"You told me," Qi Lang also stood still, the corners of his mouth squirming, as if he had to use all his strength to make it possible to say a word: "The former Lieutenant Dodim told me that birth does not hinder your greatness. ”
Andy smiled again: "That's right, your birth doesn't hinder your greatness. You did it, but unfortunately I can't. ”
He looked back at the snow wolf with a sad expression. The snow wolf whimpered lowly, as if he too had feelings, and he was now grieving for his fateful companion.
Qi Lang noticed that the blood-red color in Dodim's eyes was fading.
That should be a good sign, and if he becomes like Igru with pale blue eyes, does that mean that it is possible for him to shed his original identity and no longer bear the notoriety of the Demon Emissary?
However, Qi Lang's judgment was wrong. Igru's warning sounded nearby: "Beware of his sorcery!"
Almost at the same moment, Qi Lang suddenly felt that his arm was out of control, and the holy sword was actually raised, flat on his chest, as if he was challenging Andy.
Andy genuinely laughed, and he rushed over like a fly, facing the blade, opening his arms, and pounced!
"No, don't!" Qi Lang struggled to break free from the control of that strange power, but he found that the power was so powerful that he couldn't do it, at least in the short term!
At the same time, Igru seemed to be making a similar effort, for when Qi Lang glanced over in alarm, he found that Igru's eyes were also glowing red, but he didn't succeed either, and the time left for him was too short.
Andy has arrived!
His chest arrived, and he was being baptized in the light of the holy sword.
"Ka!"
In the exclamations of the soldiers around him, the holy sword pierced through his emaciated body!
Blood flowed down the corners of Andy's mouth.
It seems that he still lied - his blood did not drain, and his tears were probably the same.
Thank you, my brotherly soldier. Andy's eyes darkened, "You cut off Dodim's connection with me, he's free, and I'm free." From now on, he will run to his freedom, and I will be finally liberated......"
Andy fell, and in that moment, all of his healed injuries were found, and he was turned into a bloody man.
But one thing was healed—his voice. Hoarse was gone, and his voice was still as kind.
Qi Lang's freedom was also returned. In fact, his body was already able to move, but the chill in his heart seemed to freeze him.
"Dodim......" He held the Major's shoulder in pain, trying to say something, but could not say anything.
"Call me Andy......" Andy smiled, his breath getting weaker and weaker, "It's a good ending, and there's nothing better for Andy Anderson." ”
"It's not good, it's not a good ending!" Qi Lang exclaimed, tears dripping down Andy's white face in tandem.
"I lied to you, I'm sorry......" Andy let out his last breath, his voice was faint but reassuring, "Mr. Zhu Lai is safe and sound, he just fulfilled a wish for me...... Went far away, but I promise you that it won't be long before he will go back to you......"
"Uhhh
A long and terrible howl seemed to come from the distant sky, and the snow wolf, named Dodim, had disappeared into thin air.
The fog of Snow Wolf Canyon seemed to fill the air, engulfing everything—the mourning soldiers around it, the slave camps full of grievances, and the hatreds of the past. Only a miserable king was left with a poor child in his arms and a dazed snow wolf......
