Chapter 133 Death of the Paladin

"Daniel!" Vasa exclaimed in amazement.

Captain Daniel was lying on the ground, the cold-blooded trident pierced his chest deeply, sucking his life force crazily, causing the blood on his face to disappear quickly.

"Tsk tsk... What a noble yet stupid chivalry! Anyway, you all have to die, so what difference does it make if you die first?"

There was a sneer on the corner of Cottard's mouth, and he raised his hand to try to recall the Cold-Blooded Trident. Captain Daniel suddenly grabbed the trident stuck in his chest and did not let go, so that the devil son could not take back the murder weapon and kill others.

"Come back! Come back to me!" Cottard roared together, trying his best to summon the cold-blooded trident. The trident buzzed and trembled, like a living creature trying to break free from Captain Daniel's chest. However, the stubborn paladin clung to the murder weapon with the last bit of strength and would rather die than let go. The wound that was already fatal deteriorated further during the tearing process. .

"Tough guy! You wait for me!"

Cottard was furious, cursed and rushed to Daniel, determined to pull the cold-blooded trident from his chest with his own hands. However, before his fingers touched the handle of the halberd, George Vasa roared and pounced on him like a lion that had finally got rid of its shackles.

At this time, Cottard had no weapon to block the flaming sword in the paladin's hand, so he could only try his best to dodge. The sword brushed against the base of his ear and cut off his right arm up to his shoulder.

Cottard staggered back screaming, his feet slipped and he fell, his broken arm spewed blood like an out-of-control faucet. George Vassar's angry sword completely defeated the courage of the "son of the devil". He didn't care about taking back the "cold-blooded trident", struggled to get up with one arm, and ran desperately.

Vasa didn't care about chasing Cottard, and hurried back to Daniel, hugging his dying comrade, tears welling up.

Daniel seemed to feel the hot tears falling on his cheeks, opened his eyes and smiled weakly at Vasa, took off the platinum ring on the middle finger of his right hand with difficulty, his blood-soaked lips squirmed slightly.

Major Vassar bent down, put his ear close to Daniel's lips, and vaguely heard him chanting a woman's name, which seemed to be "Martha". This was the name of Daniel's fiancée, and looking at the engagement ring in his hand, George Vasa immediately guessed that Daniel was entrusting his funeral affairs and asked him to take care of his fiancée.

Major Vassar shook Daniel's hand and nodded tearfully.

As if letting go of something on his mind, Daniel twitched the corners of his mouth and smiled for the last time. His fingers slid down feebly, and the blood-stained ring quietly fell into the palm of George Vassar.

An unspeakable grief seized the heart, making it difficult for the normally strong officer to breathe. Just when he hugged Daniel's body and wanted to cry without tears, a sudden exclamation came from behind him. Georges Vassar recognized Cottard's voice, barely restrained his grief and looked back, a half-man, half-tree giant was chasing Cottard who was fleeing for his life, and stomped hard on the villain, trampling him to the ground. The bones of his body were shattered, and blood and screams shot out through the tree man's huge soles.

Joan has never been so angry like this in his life. He turned into a "tree man" and trampled on Cottal crazily until he stomped his body into a pool of mud and avenged Captain Daniel. Humanoid.

Joan stood in front of Cottard's bloody corpse, trembling and letting out a long sigh of relief, turned around and walked behind Major Vasa who was kneeling on one knee, looked at Captain Daniel who had closed his eyes forever in the major's arms, and recalled these days I had a brief but pleasant experience with this young, handsome, enthusiastic and cheerful paladin, and I felt unspeakable grief and indignation in my heart, and I couldn't help the red circles under my eyes.

If there really are gods in this world... Joan wants to question all the gods in the world, why are good people always unrewarded, and villains like Cottard are always delayed in getting their due punishment?

Joan wiped the corners of her eyes, tried to calm down her emotions, and turned her back silently, unable to bear to see Major Vassar's sad expression. His eyes accidentally glanced at Cottard's inhuman corpse, and he was surprised to find that the cloak wrapped in a pile of rotten flesh was still intact. Presumably it had some kind of magical power, so he took a while to remove the cloak from the rotting corpse. I stripped it out, used a "magic trick" to clean it up, and stuffed it into the bag casually.

...

When Cottard fell, the battle that had lasted for many days outside the town of Delin also came to an end.

"Goblin Lord" Letu saw that the situation was over, decisively abandoned the lizardman allies on the battlefield, and led the remnants to flee back to "Screaming Forest".

Seeing this scene, the Lizardman generals who were wandering around the battlefield no longer hesitated, and elected a nobleman who was closely related to the Myric father and son as a representative to find Weiss, Flint, Tyndall, Magny and Vasa They apologized for being forced to be involved in this conflict due to the coercion of Cottard and Bassoon, and then requested a truce, hoping that Delin Town and the Leng-Blooded Tribe would resolve the conflict and restore the non-aggression agreement signed in the Mirik era .

It is easy to start a war, but it takes greater courage and greater pressure to end it. Not everyone in Delin Town is willing to accept the "olive branch" offered by the Lizardmen. The Delin Town militia headed by Flint demanded revenge for the dead relatives and friends, and killed all the Lizardmen. Magni also Unwilling to accept the reconciliation, in his opinion, those lizardmen who turned back first betrayed Elder Mirik and respected the regicide and usurped Cottar as the patriarch, and then betrayed Cottal and refused to contribute in the battle, which shows that they They are all a group of selfish guys, they are not trustworthy at all, it is better to kill them all to avoid future troubles. The knights in Port Layton did not have a good impression of the lizardmen, especially after the heroic sacrifice of Captain Daniel Fairfax, who was loved by the young knights, the call for killing all the lizardmen to avenge Captain Daniel immediately won the majority Knight's response.

No one deplores the sacrifice of Captain Daniel more than George Vasa. However, in such a tense situation, he has to restrain his grief and anger and call on everyone to calm down and take seriously the truce request made by the cold-blooded tribe.

"Regardless of lizard people or human beings, both sides have paid too many sacrifices for this war. If the bloodshed is not stopped, the conflict between the two sides will definitely evolve into a hatred that can never be resolved. Generations of generations will kill each other, and there will never be peace... ...Daniel's spirit in heaven would never have wished for this to happen, gentlemen, please do not disappoint Daniel and all those brave men who have given their lives in this war for a just cause."
