Chapter 65: Battle

"It is our caravan's luck to meet the boss of Mokaxi in this wilderness." Nick handed over to Mokaxi and said solemnly: "Please rest assured, I understand all the rules in the wilderness and will never let him You and your gangster brothers came back empty-handed."

"Our brigade is willing to offer one-third of the goods as tribute, and we also ask Boss Moxi to make it easier!"

The rules in the wilderness are that once the brigade encounters a gang, if the strength of the two sides is about the same, the brigade only needs to offer some symbolic tribute to avoid fighting between the two sides. But in the current situation, the gang is coming fiercely and is obviously stronger than the brigade. So Nick must show enough sincerity.

"One third? Are you kidding me?" Mokaxi grinned and said with a ferocious smile, "You want to get rid of me with this little thing?"

Nick's expression suddenly changed slightly. According to the rules in the wilderness, offering one-third of the tribute from the brigade was already a sign of sincerity, but the other party was not satisfied at all. He obviously regarded the brigade as a lamb to be slaughtered.

"Let me tell you, no matter how much you have, I want it all!" Mokaxi said with an arrogant smile.

"You want them all!?" Nick's face was gloomy and he gritted his teeth and said, "I'm afraid what you're doing is against the rules of the wilderness, isn't it?"

"Rules? Fuck the rules!" Mokaxi roared wildly, suddenly swung his hammers, slammed them at Nick, and roared, "You dare to bargain with me, you are really looking for death! To tell you the truth, I today Now that I’m here, not only will I steal all your goods, but you will also become my slaves.”

The two hammers struck like a hurricane, and Nick quickly drew his sword to block. The huge force sent him back several steps.

"Brothers, come to me, take everything from them, and kill all those who dare to resist!" Mokaxi roared ferociously, swung the heavy hammers in his hands, and smashed towards Nick again.

"Captain, be careful!" the guards exclaimed.

Seeing the two hammers coming, Nick gritted his teeth, suddenly rolled over, and grabbed a shield from the side to protect himself.

Bang! A dull sound.

Mokaxi swung his two hammers and hit the shield. The heavy force shocked Nick's whole body, and he couldn't help but take a half step back. His arms were slightly numb, and even the tiger's mouth was cracked and oozing out traces of blood.

At this time, a group of gangsters howled and started to attack.

"Fight them!" One of the guards drew his sword and shouted loudly.

A fierce battle was about to break out. The gangsters were numerous and menacing, but the guards of the brigade were also experienced in many battles and relied on the defense circle formed by horse-drawn carriages to resist attacks.

The battle lasted for more than ten minutes.

Relying on the defensive circle formed by horse-drawn carriages, although the brigade blocked the gang's offensive, the enemy was still outnumbered. After paying the price of several corpses, a gap was finally opened in the defensive circle.

"Kill! Kill them all."

"Come on!" the gangsters screamed, which seemed extremely harsh in the dark night.

On the other side, Nick, who was fighting Mokashi, was also at a disadvantage. He was holding a long sword and shield, but he looked extremely embarrassed under Mokashi's fierce offensive. He was unable to fight back and could only defend passively.

Although both sides are knights who have awakened fighting spirit, the gap in strength is very obvious.

Mokashi is full of blood and is in his prime, but Nick is already over fifty, and both his physical strength and fighting spirit have begun to decline. Although he can resist for a moment with his years of fighting experience, he knows very well that he will be defeated. It's just a matter of time.

A few more rounds later.

"Death to me!" Mokaxi roared, and his two hammers fell like meteors.

Nick gritted his teeth and raised his shield to block, but as a huge force came, the steel shield burst into pieces. Even Nick behind the shield vomited blood, his face instantly turned pale, and he couldn't help but step back dozens of steps, paralyzed. Sitting on the ground.

"Boss Moxi is mighty!"

"Brothers, rush!"

Seeing Makasi defeating the brigade guard captain with one hammer, the gangsters became even more excited. Howling loudly, they climbed onto the carriage defense circle as if to start the final attack.

"Captain! Get Captain Nick back quickly." The guards shouted loudly. They were already in a state of embarrassment when resisting the gang attack. The defeat of the only knight in the brigade plunged everyone into despair.

Several guards desperately rushed out of the defensive circle, trying to rescue the injured Nick.

"Leave me alone, take your wife and leave!" Sitting next to the tree trunk, Nick clutched his chest and shouted loudly.

The guards rushed out of the defensive circle. Before they could get close to Nick, they were already surrounded by more than a dozen gangsters. A thin gangster with pointy ears and monkey cheeks waved a machete and chopped several guards to the ground in a moment.

"You want to save him so much? Then it depends on whether you have the ability." Moxi put his hammers on his shoulders, looked at Nick, and shouted to a gangster not far away, "Gray Monkey, go and help me." Cut off that guy’s head!”

"As you command, Boss Mokasi." The short and thin gangster nicknamed "Gray Monkey" smiled evilly and walked towards Nick while waving his machete.

Inside the carriage defense circle, Tamara's face was pale and her lips were trembling slightly. The situation was already precarious. If Nick, the only knight in the brigade, was killed, the gang would soon be able to break through the brigade.

"Quick, leave me alone and go save Nick!" Tamara hurriedly said to the guards beside her with trembling lips.

Several guards looked at each other with expressions of struggle. After hesitating for a moment, they all obeyed Tamara's order. With a sense of determination, they drew their swords and rushed out of the carriage defense circle.

However, everything was in vain.

The gang had surrounded the carriage defense circle. Several guards were caught in a bitter battle as soon as they rushed out. They could not get close to Nick at all. They could only watch Gray Monkey raise his scimitar and aim it at Nick's neck.

"Hehe, goodbye, Mr. Knight."

Gray Monkey's eyes were excited, and even his arm holding the scimitar was shaking. For an ordinary person who had not awakened his fighting spirit, being able to kill a knight was undoubtedly something worth bragging about.

"What if the knight awakened his fighting spirit? Didn't he die under my knife?"

"I'll kill you. I, Gray Monkey, will also kill knights in the future."

Gray Monkey thought excitedly, maybe in a few years, when he is old and sitting by the stove, he can also proudly brag to his descendants that a knight had died under his knife.

Just as Gray Monkey was feeling proud, a sharp whistle that tore through the air suddenly sounded in his ears.

Before he could react, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest. Gray Monkey lowered his head in confusion, but what he saw was scarlet, the color of blood that he was most familiar with.

"How could blood be like this?"

Gray Monkey opened his mouth, and the feeling of pain spread throughout his body. He turned around with difficulty and vaguely saw a young and handsome boy standing on a carriage not far away, looking at him calmly.

"It hit the target, not bad!" The boy shrugged and said casually.
