"Huh..." Agnas made a painful groan. Although Kordak's level is only one level higher than him intuitively, the two people's physical fitness, nerve reflex speed, age gap, and fighting spirit quality There is also a big gap in the purity of the fighting spirit attributes.
Therefore, although Agnas is a fifteenth-level high-level warrior, he has even more actual combat experience than Kordak. But there was not much suspense in the duel between the two. Kordak could not be said to have an overwhelming advantage, but fighting Agnas was far from difficult.
Kordak raised his thick thigh and hit Agnas with a knee in the chest. Agnas took a few steps back after being hit hard. Then the old warrior couldn't bear it anymore and spit out a mouthful of blood. Come.
"Let your warriors come together, you are no match for me." Kordak put the giant sword on his shoulder, then spread his left hand and said. He sighed: "But if the fight continues, I can no longer guarantee that I will be lenient."
"But you can't guarantee that you will completely defeat us." Agnus sighed and said, "I think the most likely outcome is that we suffer heavy casualties and then subdue you."
"Do we have to do this?" Kordak gave his final persuasion: "I don't want to kill the soldiers of the empire."
"But this is an order." Agnas said very stubbornly: "If your strength has exceeded our capabilities, we will naturally have a reason to retreat, but now that you do not have this ability, we can only force It’s on my scalp.”
"You turned out to be a knight, right?" Kordak asked helplessly.
"This is the honor I won during the founding war. In fact, I am also a knight now. I have my own family, and this is my family emblem." Agnus raised his two-handed sword very proudly, There is a emblem in the shape of a long sword inserted into a shield on the sword body near the hilt. This thing is either the emblem mark passed down from his ancestors, or it was made for himself after he became a knight.
"But because my family doesn't have much background, I can only rely on serving the empire to support my family." Agnas explained, and then asked a little strangely: "How did your Excellency do it?" knew?"
"It would be a pity if you have a character like yours and don't become a knight." Kordak joked, and then he stopped talking. He raised his two-handed sword, and then said loudly: "I am for my survival, and you are for your family. Again, since each of us has a reason to fight, then don't talk nonsense, come on Fight!”
"I'm sorry." Agnus was a little ashamed for using the tactic of bullying the few. He lowered his head apologetically, and then said: "All warriors, follow my orders and attack!"
…
Kordak didn't know how many Hawke Empire soldiers he had killed. They might have become good brothers who fought alongside him, ate and slept together, and could trust each other's backs. But now for some reason, the only thing they want to do is to pierce the weapons in their hands into each other's bodies. Although Kordak felt extremely intolerable, he did not hesitate at all. Because he must live, he must find Vera, and for that woman, he can kill many people, as long as they dare to stop him.
But Agnas' prediction was not wrong. Kordak's personal strength was indeed stronger than any of them, but Kordak was no match for the siege of dozens of people. New sword scars appeared again on Kordak's already scarred body. Most of them were shallow, but some were so deep that the bones were visible.
The increasing scars and the constant consumption of physical strength greatly reduced Kordak's combat effectiveness, and if he delayed for another fifteen minutes, new pursuers would probably come over. This time, Kordak may find it really difficult to escape.
"It's better to give up..." Kordak thought with a wry smile. At this point, he had no good solution. Since he is destined to be unable to escape, it is better not to add any more unnecessary killings. As for Vera's problem, she can still go to Regnar, but if he ignores it...
Kordak shook his head. He knew Regner's character very well. He might not care about his own life or death, but if it concerned Vera, Regnar would not refuse.
Thinking of this, Kordak jumped back. After breaking away from the encirclement, he staggered a few steps, but just as he was about to speak, a rough roar sounded from behind him.
"Boss! Rondo is here! Hold on!"
Kordak turned his head in shock, and then saw Rondo rushing over menacingly. I don’t know what happened to this man. Anyway, his appearance is not much better than Kordak: everything from his face to his armor looks dirty, and his hair is made of a perfect combination of dust and snow water. If you don't cut off the dead knots, you won't be able to straighten them out again.
The sudden addition of Rondo is obviously Kordak's life-saving straw. This big man is even better than Kordak in terms of physical fitness and physical strength. Although his fighting spirit level and combat acumen were a little weak, it was still very easy to deal with these heavy casualties of the pursuers.
"Fuck! How dare you beat your boss Rondo like this? You grandsons don't want to live anymore, right? Let's see if Master Rondo doesn't chop you to pieces!" Rondo rushed over and waved his sword with both hands. While he was cursing uncleanly in his mouth.
Rondo has had a habit of beating and cursing at the same time for a long time. He always curses when he kills enemies on the battlefield. This made Kordak wonder if this guy was also the kind of scum who spit on others while fighting when he was a child...
Rondo's shocking debut obviously shocked everyone, including Kordak. By the time Kordak reacted, Rondo had already started fighting with Agnas. This middle-aged knight seemed to be trying to prevent his men around him from suffering further casualties, so he tried his best to hold off Rondo.
But who is Lord Rondo? That is the number one warrior in the Independent Corps, a man who is more ferocious than seafood. And Agnas has been seriously injured by Kordak, and now he is playing against Rondo, who is almost in full condition. The situation can be imagined. Therefore, in just two minutes, Agnus had already shown signs of decline. On two occasions, if he had not escaped in time, he might have been chopped off by Rondo.
Rondo was also furious at this time. The person he admired most in his life was Kordak. After these two years of getting along, Rondo has long made up his mind to follow his leader wholeheartedly. So seeing the leader being beaten like this, how could Rondo show mercy
He planned to kill all these people and then leave with Kordak. Judging from the current situation, Rondo can definitely do it!
"Londo, stop!" Kordak shouted immediately after reacting.
This saved Agnus' life, as he was knocked to the ground by Londo's massive slash. When Kordak spoke, Londo had already raised his giant sword high. If this sword was struck down, it would probably cut Agnus in half.
"What's wrong? Boss?" Rondo turned his head in shock, and then suddenly realized that this place was not the place to talk, so he raised his giant sword and muttered: "What's the matter? Wait for Rondo to finish these things first." Let’s cut this bastard into pieces.”
"I just won't let you kill them..." Kordak seemed to have known what he would do with Rondo's character. So he quickly added another sentence.
"Not allowed to cut?" Rondo put down his giant sword, then scratched his head strangely: "Why?"
"Anyway, I won't let you chop me. Come over here!" Kordak said dumbfounded.
"Oh..." Rondo nodded, and then walked over obediently. After two years of getting along day and night, Londo had already developed the habit of unconditionally obeying Kordak's orders, so even though his head was full of doubts at this time, he still followed Kordak's words.
"Thank you, Lord Kordak." Agnas is indeed a veteran of the war. Although his life was hanging by a thread just now, he did not look panicked after he stood up. Instead, he calmly said to Kordak. Thank you.
"I now have power that you can't compete with. Can you leave?" Kordak said coldly, although Rondo's sudden appearance was something he never expected. But since you can use him to make others retreat at this time, it is also a very good choice.
"Boss!" The first one to shout was Rondo. No matter how idiotic he was, Rondo knew he couldn't let go of these pursuers: "They know your location. When the time comes..."
"I know!" Kordak was actually struggling in his heart, because he understood that if Agnus was released, it would be a lot of trouble for them to go back and report the news. But he couldn't bear to let such an upright and kind knight die like this. He also had his own family, and he was fighting to protect something, so Kordak was not angry at all when Agnas attacked him. Because as he said, everyone has their own reasons for having to fight, then the reasons are just reasons, there is no right or wrong. If you have a reason, just go and fight.
"..." Rondo said no more.
Agnus looked at the two people not far away. After estimating that Rondo's strength was far beyond what people like him could contend with, Agnus nodded: "We will retreat, but before leaving, I have a question for you."
"Mr. Agnus, please speak."
"Why did you betray the empire?"
"Because I have to do it for some people."
"Then I respect your choice. I will leave and use my honor to promise not to reveal your whereabouts."
"I believe in your reputation." Kordak was very satisfied with this assurance.
"But you'd better not let your guard down because of this, because I heard that His Highness Joffrey also participated in the hunt for you, and he should be in this area now."
"I understand, thank you for the reminder." Kordak nodded seriously.
But just as they were about to leave, two unexpected voices sounded again.
"Oh, I think if I had come a little later, this important fugitive wanted by the empire would have been let go by someone, wouldn't I, Ymir?"
"You are right, Your Highness."
