Rocco), one of the more sadistic members of the mercenary band, who invites them back to the camp for lunch. When the three arrive in camp, the Colonel (Charles McCaulay) is furious at Wicks for bringing in outsiders but agrees to let them remain until after lunch.
During lunch Wicks taunts Kevin and challenges his manhood with a stick of lighted dynamite. Having proved his point, he tries to molest Terry. When Kevin comes to her defense, he is badly beaten by the mercenary.
Lieutenant Ross (Paul Carr) tries to protect Terry who has now become a pawn in a power struggle among the men. Wicks announces he is taking the unwilling girl along on their mission over the oblections of the colonel. The other men protest, and each stakes his claim for the girl.
The colonel, confronted with a mutiny, decides to settle the girl's fate by a hand-to-hand tournament with the victor getting the spoils. Only one man, Quinn (Roy Jensen) a heartless killer and an artist with a shotgun, declines. The only rules are no weapons, no killing. While the men are being paired off for the contest, Kevin escapes to San Christobal to get help for the girl.
The individual fights begin . . . McFarland, the Scotsman, is eliminated by Wicks. Ballard is bested by Hill who, in turn is defeated by Ross.
Only two contestants are left - Wicks and Ross, who engage in a final battle, which is won by the former through treacherous cunning.
Having won, Wicks claims the girl and after taunting his comrades, drags her to his tent and rapes her. Later, when he is satiated, he throws her back to the lusting mob. She is then returned to Wicks as his slave.
In town, Kevin is unable to find help from the frightened sheriff and townspeople, and he returns to the camp alone.
At dawn, Kevin sees Terry, nude and dehumanized, with a noose around her neck fetching water for Wicks. Enraged, he creeps into Wicks' tent and kills him.
