Chapter 224: Pursuit Part 2
The setting sun passed through the gaps in the forest, casting mottled shadows; the breeze blew through the small leaves on the treetops, making a rustling sound. At this moment, the flock of birds flew away, and the beasts stopped calling. In the world of light and shadow, there were only two people staring at each other with murderous intent.
The silent stare lasted only a few breaths. Black Wolf Toltec first bent down and threw the longbow at his feet. Then, he took out the copper axe with his right hand, pressed his left fist against his heart, and shouted loudly to the opposite side.
"May the God of War Huitzilopochtli bless me! I, the warrior from Tepanikapan, 'Black Wolf' Toltec, challenge Qin Congcan's 'Hound' Yuku to a duel!"
Hearing the formal challenge, Yuku's eyes flashed. He nodded slightly, took a few steps forward, and then suddenly drew his bow and shot the arrow he was best at!
In the moment of life and death, Toltec was suddenly shocked. He reacted very quickly, and with a swift bend, the bronze arrow brushed the tip of his hair, like a deadly lightning, "swoosh" passed over his head, and then "huh" nailed to the tree. A huge rage rose from the black wolf's heart, and he bends to get the bow and arrow while roaring.
"You!"
"Qin Congcan's warrior, 'Hound' Yoku, challenges 'Black Wolf' Toltec to a duel!"
The arrow failed, and Yoku the Hound's eyes flashed again. He then spoke loudly, threw away the longbow in his hand, and also performed a challenge.
"This arrow is to repay you for your previous pursuit!"
Hearing this, Toltec paused. He narrowed his eyes, looked at Yoku, who was as calm as a sculpture, slowly stood up, and tightened the bronze axe in his hand.
"The gods are witnesses, let us use the sacred challenge to decide the strongest warrior!"
Yoku nodded. He took out the spear and shook it lightly in his hand. The sharp copper tip seemed to have a soul, drawing a flexible trajectory in the air, and running in small steps along with the peerless warrior.
Toltec took the rattan shield from his back, held it lightly with four fingers of his left hand, and placed it diagonally in front of him. Then, he raised his right arm, with the tip of the war stick facing back, ready to fire, and also ran quickly.
The distance of a hundred steps was reached in an instant! Yuku's eyes were cold, and he leaped forward, and suddenly stabbed with a fierce spear, aiming at the waist and abdomen of the black wolf. Facing the fierce stab, Toltec's body was slightly bent like a reed, swaying forward slightly, then raised his left arm shield for defense, and chopped his right arm forward suddenly, and the war stick hit the left arm of the hound holding the gun.
Yuku jumped lightly with agility, loosened his left wrist and retracted it, and stretched his right hand forward, and the gun was like a star, and the golden copper spear pierced the neck of the black wolf. The tip of the spear flashed with cold light, Toltec narrowed his eyes, quickly raised his shield to protect, and then slashed forward sideways. The sharp obsidian blade of the war stick went down along the spear shaft, about to cut off the opponent's right hand! Yuku immediately jumped sideways again!
Suanggua watched from afar, staring intently, with an extremely nervous expression.
The hound gun was like a swimming dragon, never leaving the vital point; the black wolf stick was like a gust of wind, and it was in front of the breath. The two top warriors in the world were quick and precise. In the advance and retreat, attack and defense, their bodies were flexible and powerful, and their movements were simple and accurate. Their weapons never collided once, but their bodies were always dancing on the edge of life and death!
This is a duel between wolf and dog! This kind of artistic battle is the highest embodiment of martial arts. Mental and physical strength are rapidly consumed. As long as there is a mistake, the opponent will be hit by a fatal blow. But in just two or three minutes, the hound and the black wolf began to get tired, their chests rose and fell slightly, and their breathing became heavy.
The excitement of life and death makes people's scalps hot, and the selfless fight makes people feel comfortable all over! During the fierce fight, Toltec's eyes became brighter. The corners of his mouth rose, enjoying the pleasure of fighting with his opponent. Within two steps, Yoku's face turned red, but his eyes were full of murderous intent.
A sharp red bird was disturbed by the passing through the forest, and jumped up from the north not far away, chirping across the sky. The peerless warrior glanced slightly, his face remained expressionless, but his heart was determined! He lowered his body slightly, holding the spear flat with both hands, and stabbed the black wolf's chest and abdomen again!
Toltec was fully focused, just watching the opponent's swift movements and the trend of his body shape changes. Yoku was the strongest opponent he had ever met, and this duel was also the biggest test he had ever experienced! Facing the familiar assassination, the black wolf once again raised his shield sideways, raised his war stick diagonally, and was about to chop it head-on!
This time, the hound Yoku did not dodge. He suddenly shouted, and the spear pierced into the rattan shield for the first time, and then he lifted it up with force, forcing the black wolf to abandon the shield. Then, he dropped the spear with both hands at the same time, continued to move forward, and within one step of Black Wolf, he swung out his left fist quickly, hitting the opponent's jaw, and his right hand pressed the copper axe at his waist, about to kill!
The long spear stabbed outward with great force, and Black Wolf was forced to let go, and he was shocked. He tilted his head to avoid the jab at close range, but his eyes fell on the waist of his opponent. In this lightning moment, Toltec had no time to think. He just relied on the instinct of a warrior and rushed forward with all his strength, hitting the hound Yuku violently.
"Bang"! The two men moved forward at the same time and collided fiercely. Yuku held the axe handle with his right hand, but Black Wolf also held it with his left hand. Toltec swung his right fist and hit the opponent's waist and abdomen, and then his waist also hurt. Then, the two hit shoulders together, fiercely headbutting each other, and there was another "bang"!
Toltec shook his head vigorously, and was dizzy from the collision. He held down the opponent's right hand holding the axe tightly, bent his right knee and hit him, and Yoku also hit back fiercely. The powerful knee hit the back of the thigh, and the muscle spasmed, and the body immediately became unstable. The fierce close combat lasted only a few breaths, and the two men suddenly shook their bodies, entangled and fell to the ground, and fought like beasts again.
"Go, help the general kill the opponent!"
Suangu stared at the two warriors in the close duel, and his heart was extremely anxious. He held down his right arm that began to hurt again, and shouted at the last two guards in a stern voice.
"Go, kill him! Don't worry about the fight!"
The two copper axe guards paused slightly, and then responded in unison. They looked fierce, pulled out the copper axes at their waists, and went to the battlefield a hundred steps away.
"Ha!"
The hound Yoku's face was blood red, and he held the black wolf tightly under him. With the help of the potion, he temporarily maintained more abundant physical strength. His left hand slowly grasped the black wolf's neck, and his right hand gradually broke free from the opponent's shackles, slowly and resolutely pulling out the copper axe!
The sharp axe tip flashed with a killing cold light, and the smooth copper surface reflected a cold smile. The black wolf Toltec's face flushed red, but his eyes were as bright as stars. His right hand tried to protect his neck, and he struggled to keep breathing. His left hand was still trying to grab Yoku's right wrist, resisting the arrival of death.
Facing the black wolf's final struggle, Yoku's always indifferent face showed a trace of cruel pity. He shook his head slightly, pressed down the copper axe hard, and handed death to the opponent's chest step by step! The sharp coldness pierced the skin, bringing a creepy cold. The black wolf clenched his teeth, feeling the increasingly clear call of the kingdom of God, and finally showed a trace of despair in his eyes.
"Swish!!" A swift lightning flashed instantly, with a whistling wind! It pierced through the solid leather armor with a "puff" sound, and then "swished" deeply into the soft body. The bright red splashed immediately, taking away the warrior's extraordinary vitality.
"Uh ah!"
The warm liquid dripped like a spring, along the cold copper axe, and fell on the skin that Black Wolf was about to cut. The blood of two top warriors blended together for the first time, but the strong lives were about to be separated by life and death. Black Wolf was in high spirits. At this moment, the big hand that was pinching his neck suddenly loosened, and the power that restrained him was instantly lost. He immediately exerted force, pushed Yuku away, and then rolled twice quickly, jumping up from the ground quickly.
"Swish!!" Another lightning-like feather arrow shot over! The copper arrow was extremely accurate and pierced through the throat with a swish. A dozen steps away, a guard suddenly opened his eyes wide, made two "ho ho" sounds in his mouth, and fell on his back and died.
Toltec half-crouched, breathing rapidly. He turned back vigilantly, only to see a weathered and kind face eighty steps away, looking at him with concern. Seeing this scene, Black Wolf couldn't help but grin, revealing a brilliant smile after surviving a disaster.
"Go, go! Take him away!"
The hound Yuku lay on the cold soil, and the warm vitality continued to flow from the wound. The arrow just now was extremely accurate and powerful, deeply piercing his lower back, and also took away all his strength. The pain from his internal organs made his brows twisted and his body twitched constantly. However, the loyal general still looked at the last guard, trying to call out the last order.
"No! Yuku, my hound!!"
Suangu stood in the shadow of the short tree, shouting desperately, tears overflowing from his eyes. He looked at Yuku who fell to the ground not far away, dyed with golden red light by the setting sun. The red color symbolizing death flowed from under the hound, quickly spread on the ground, and accumulated into a shallow pool of blood. This familiar bloodstain was so dazzling, along with the bright red sunset, it reflected in the king's eyes and covered his sky, like a red kingdom coming.
"Go!!"
Hearing the king's call, General Yoku turned his head vigorously. He didn't care about looking at the enemy who had dealt him a fatal blow, but just tried to open his eyes wide, using all his strength to make a final cry from his broken lungs.
"Swish!" Another arrow of death came. The last guard fell to the ground and struggled weakly on the soil. His body rolled out the last trace, like a cocoa tree overturned in the forest.
The young king turned around in a daze and stumbled into the woods. When the sun rose, he had tens of thousands of troops, with infinite confidence and hope, to go to the majestic capital; and when the sun set, he was left alone, desperately dragging his wounded body and fleeing to the deep and dark jungle.
Toltec widened his eyes and looked at the sound in confusion. He saw the last wounded guard staggering away. He looked carefully, this familiar figure, this familiar profile, always gave people a familiar feeling, just like, just like. The black wolf's eyes suddenly widened. He suddenly jumped up from the ground and shouted with extreme excitement.
"Big fish, a real big fish!"
The black wolf Toltec quickly leaned over and picked up the copper axe that almost killed him. Then, he pressed the wound on his chest with his left hand, and even didn't care about bandaging it, and chased the fleeing king like a gust of wind.
Seeing this, the hound Yuku closed his eyes in despair and pain. He only had the last moment of his life left, and no matter how brave and brave a warrior was, he would eventually enter the eternal world of the dead.
The wind blew and the leaves rustled. Bertard carried a longbow and walked out of the woods quickly. He came to the hound silently and looked at the powerful enemy who was about to die. The setting sun was stained, and the red cardinal sang in the sky, and the crispness was like a dream in his youth.
"Haha! I, the black wolf Toltec, have captured the king of Tarasco!! I, Toltec, am the most outstanding warrior!!!"
The long wind blew, bringing incomparable laughter and shouts full of joy. General Yoku opened his eyes again, tears dripping from the corners of his eyes.
"Yoku, you are a respectable opponent, and leave a last word!"
The warrior leader held the dagger on his waist, squatted down, and looked at the dying warrior.
".I am a loyal hound, and I died in front of my master. That is the lost kingdom, the lost legion. The lost Purépecha people."
General Yoku opened his eyes wide and murmured. The hallucination of death made him smile again. He looked at the most magnificent sky under the sunset, and also looked at the life without regrets in the dream. In the bright red sky, there is a red country. In the red country, there is a lost country.
Puerce yourself.
