More than 10 minutes later, Paladin Omineth appeared in front of the Duke and they saw the appearance of Paladin Omineth, the Duke's heart sank completely, if there was no Paladin Omineth's appearance they may still have one percent chance of survival, but now it is certain that they will definitely die.
Tiago saw Ominez arrive and rushed to meet him, trying to explain the current situation to Ominez. But it was stopped by Ominez. Omineth said to them, "You can go back now, I will take care of the situation here." Tiago and the others did not dare to speak, but since their mission had not been completed and they had 4 dead brothers so they were not willing to just leave, so they just went to stand at a distance and watched the situation from afar.
Omineth walked to a distance of about 10 paces from the cave and stood down. Turning to the cave entrance, he said, "Duke I want to talk to you."
The Duke heard Omineth's shout and walked out, he was not afraid of Omineth sneaking up on him, because if Omineth wanted the lives of several of them now, there was no need to use sneak attacks, they were no match for Omineth at all, even if they were unharmed.
The Duke said to Omineth, "I didn't expect that even you have given up the basic dignity that a knight should preserve and become someone else's lackey."
Omineth: "Whatever you say, I don't want to explain anything, I just want to tell you that if you agree to fight me now, I can guarantee the safety of the rest of you. If you can win against me, you can leave safely with your companions. Even if you unfortunately die in battle I guarantee that no one will dare to do anything against the rest of you, including the princess."
The Duke had no choice, even if Omineth were to kill them all now, he could do so without much difficulty.
The Duke pulled his sword out, if he must die, die in the hands of the paladin at least can keep his knightly dignity. Not to mention that his own death can be exchanged for the life of his companions, he is willing.
The chief's voice suddenly came from behind: "I say, boss, you seem to forget that I should be the main character, right? Even if he wants to kill you, he should ask my opinion first, right?" Said and went to the front of the Duke. Said to Ominez: "He hired us to protect his safety, so if you want to kill, you must step over our corpses." After saying that, he rushed toward Ominez.
The duke saw a loaded crossbow hidden behind the chief's back. He wanted to say something to stop it, but it was too late. Only to hear Omineth in front of him said: "Good, you want to die, I will let you."
While speaking, the crossbow has already left the string. At this time the total length is only 5 steps away from Ominez. Ominez did not draw his sword, and even showed a disdainful smile. Simply waved his hand,a biting sword energy emitted from his hand. It split the crossbow arrow in front of him into two and then continued to fly towards the chief. The crowd shouted in amazement, and the chief also sighed long in his heart, my life is rested.
A black gas flashed, pushing the chief to the side, and the sword gas brushed past the chief, leaving a long furrow about a foot deep on the ground. It blew the snow on the ground to the sky.
After the sword breath, the flying snow fell. But saw a man inStanding in black clothes and black armor beside the chief. It was Hahn.
Hahn carried the Chief to the Duke and said, "Help me take care of this idiot." Turning to face Tiago and the others behind Omineth, he said, "Don't expect to rely on the dark elves or archmages to make surprise attacks anymore." After saying that, he dropped the two items in his hand to the ground.
Tiago and the others and Omineth took a look, but it was a black elven bow and a mage's magic staff.The crowd was shocked. Tiago and the others were shocked that the man in front of them could kill the dark elf and the archmage,while Omineth was even more surprised that the archmage Lenesque had fully opened his defensive boundaries as he walked away.Just now when he was walking here did feel a sudden appearance and then disappeared without a trace of the murderous aura.But in such a short period of time to both destroy the Archmage's boundary, and to kill the Archmage who has completely recited the spell just waiting to attack, how much power is needed he knows very well that.Although he can do it, but definitely not so fast.Who is this person in front of him? If it has such ability, one should not have not heard of it. But he had no impression of the man in front of him at all. It seems that his decision was right, the Duke really has too much ambition, if not kill the Duke today he will become a big problem in the future.
Thinking about it Omninez is not talking. Slowly drew his longsword. Killing intent has risen.
Hahn said to Omineth, "If I can win you, does the promise you just made to the Duke still count?"
Omineth nodded his head.
Hahn was not talking. He drew the two-handed great sword behind him.
Seeing Hahn draw his sword against him, Omineth suddenly felt a great sense of oppression, no killing spirit but unusually heavy. Hahn, on the other hand, felt a great pressure the moment Omineth drew his longsword, forcing him to draw his sword against it. Neither side made a move, but both had a better understanding of the other's strength.
Those who were standing nearby also felt the change in the atmosphere in the middle. Tiago and the others, or the Duke and the others, were the first time they saw Omineth so seriously dueling with someone, while the lieutenant and the others never thought that Hahn's force could actually match that of the paladin.
Finally, a paladin-level duel unfolded in front of the crowd.
Neither side of the duel has moved, or even changed their posture. Sweat has been dripping from the foreheads of Hahn and Omineth to the top of the snow.
Masters of Duke's and Diago's level knew that both men on the field were looking for an opportunity. Both sides are good enough to kill each other the moment their opponent makes even the slightest mistake.
The dead leaves made a few circles in the air and landed between the two. The snow that rolled up made the figures of both sides a little blurry in each other's eyes. Suddenly the two people on the ground instantly storms up. A white light, a black air. The white light was a narrow stabbing sword, the black gas was a huge black two-handed sword.
The "dang" sound was issued by the intersection of two swords.
At this time, the snowflakes that were blown by the wind just now have completely fallen to the ground. The bodies of both people seemed to be fixed, maintaining the same posture as when they exchanged blows.
The white sword had snapped. The large black sword, however, stopped less than an inch from Omineth's throat.
Omineth said with his eyes closed, "Do it, you win."
Hahn, however, withdrew the great sword that was at Omineth's throat. With a light smile on his face, he said, "Now that we want to leave, I don't think anyone will stop us anymore."
Omineth nodded miserably and said, "It seems to be God's will, you guys go away."
Yas behind Hahn rushed over to help Hahn, slowly saw blood dripping from Hahn's left hand, amazingly the color of the blood was not red but green. He quietly used his cloak to wipe the blood off his hand while the crowd wasn't paying attention.
Hahn walked up to the chief and others and said, "Let's go, we should still be able to find the horses that got separated at the junction." Everyone at this time also found out that Hahn was injured. It turned out that Hahn's left clavicle had been completely cut off by Omineth's sword qi in the duel just now. It seems that the left hand is temporarily ruined.
A group of six people, supporting each other, walked towards the main road. Tiago and the others exchanged a look with each other and suddenly attacked the Duke and the others. However, the magician's magic energy had not yet had time to accumulate, and the archer had just put his bow and arrow on the string. But suddenly was behind the sword qi raw stirred, 3 people's hands instantly turned into minced meat. Tiago and the others looked in horror at Omineth who came over.
Omineth said coldly: "I said that they can leave safely." After saying that, he did not care about the three people who were still standing in the same place, and walked deeper into the forest.
From then on, no one heard from him until the second battle for the Throat three years later.
The Duke and the others stumbled out of the woods and onto the main road through the forest, completely incapacitated by physical injuries as well as overexertion, and hunger, plus the fierce battle they had just fought. The chief was the first to pass out, followed by the princess, the lieutenant, and Yas. Only Hahn managed to stay mostly conscious. A gust of dust rolled up in the distance, and gradually the sound of horses' hooves could already be clearly heard. When he saw Rodman walking in the forefront, he finally couldn't hold on and passed out.
