…
Inside the cave, there was a long, wide tunnel made of dark black stone. There was a copper lamp every ten meters on the surrounding stone walls, but most of them were not lit. The dim yellow light of the few lamps made the tunnel look pale and gloomy.
As soon as Lucien entered the pathway, he quickly and calmly hid in the dark corner and moved forward quickly, almost crawling on the ground without making any sound.
…
In the temple, another grand priest in a silver robe was checking the other entrances and exits one by one. He was worried that someone would sneak in from other entrances.
Since this entrance was the place where the fierce battle was taking place, the grand priest subconsciously ignored it. He thought it was safe and put it last.
This was a deliberate use of the blind spot!
…
After walking for ten seconds, the tunnel became flat, and many old and dilapidated doors appeared on the stone walls.
Hiding in the darkness outside a door, Lucien did not use Bat's Scream to investigate. Instead, he focused his mind and listened to the noises inside with his sharper hearing. He was worried that there might be magic circles or divine circles in the underground palace that could monitor the major magic waves.
"No breathing, no talking, and no movement." Lucien judged that there was no one inside. After all, the battle outside was fierce. If there were people or strange creatures that did not need to breathe, the place where the Argent Horn was hiding would not be so quiet.
Lucien grabbed the door handle and pushed it slightly. The door slowly opened. He quickly glanced inside with his eyes and flashed into the room.
It was not until this moment that Lucien was slightly relieved. His nervousness and fear of being discovered by a senior-rank finally eased a little. Otherwise, Lucien suspected that he would suffocate.
"It seems that most of the powerful cultists in this underground city have been sent out to fight, and those who did not go out are basically guarding the key places. Well, Uncle Chorre and his family are poor, so they should not be locked up too tightly. " Lucien knew that his plan had worked. "But there really is a relic here."
From the many rotten furniture in the room, it was obvious that this was an underground relic.
After calculating that the cultists were hiding a hundred meters away from the ranger's hut, Lucien guessed that there might be an underground relic or a cave. So, Emden was not a magic relic.
After a short adjustment, Lucien opened the door again and went deeper into the tunnel. The cultists had the absolute advantage. It would not take long for them to finish the battle and return.
Lurking in the tunnel, Lucien judged where the core area was based on the traces he left behind. At the same time, he looked for the cultists in the rooms.
After listening to the sounds of three rooms, Lucien finally heard voices.
Behind a similarly old door, two people were chatting with each other nervously.
"What's going on? Have the priests all gone out? "
"I don't know, but I can hear the explosion outside. It's very loud …"
Lucien judged the strength of the two people. He gently opened the door and rushed in, his body turning into a shadow.
The two cultists were worried about the situation outside and did not expect to be in danger. Lucien knocked them out, one in each hand.
After closing the wooden door, Lucien woke up one of the young cultists.
The cultists had just woken up and was about to shout for help when a pair of deep eyes appeared in front of him. It was like a dreamy starry sky that was twinkling with stars.
Instantly, the cultists were lost in the starry sky. He felt that the other person was the "Master of Argent" whom he worshipped wholeheartedly.
"Do you know where the poor people are being held?" Lucien asked gently.
Using the Eyes of Stars in this way was like using hypnosis. There was basically no magic wave. It was more of a direct spiritual and spiritual power.
After "communicating" with the cultists, Lucien had a general idea of the situation on this level of the ruins. On the west side of the ruins was the core temple, where the high priest, the priests, the priests, and the dark Knight lived. Chorre's family and some other ordinary hostages were being held in a remote room in the northwest of the ruins. An ordinary dark Knight and several Knight attendants were watching over them.
There was more than one level of the ruins, but the lower levels had been completely destroyed. There were five exits on this level, each located in different parts of the Melzer Black Forest.
Without wasting any time, Lucien broke the necks of the two cultists and left the stone house. He bypassed the core of the ruins and moved quickly and silently towards the northwest.
…
After checking the other exits, the high priest in the silver robe began to cast evil spells to check the entrance that should be fine. At the same time, he ordered the priests, the priests, and the dark Knight to check the surroundings of the temple.
…
Now that Lucien knew the layout of this level of the ruins, he was not as nervous as before. Most of the cultists had left the ruins, so he soon arrived at the "prison" provided by the cultists.
This was a large, remote room that was divided into two halves by iron railings. The innermost part of the room was divided into seven or eight small rooms, where different hostages and traitors were locked up. The outer part of the room was hung with many torture instruments. Four strong knight attendants were walking around uneasily, discussing what was going on outside.
An old man in black leather armor was sitting on a wooden bench. His face was a bit twisted due to long-term negative emotions. His eyes were fiercely glancing at the room behind the iron bars, as if he could see what was happening inside through the closed iron door.
The violent noises were still coming. Although the battle outside had slowed down a lot, it was still going on.
As a dark Knight, the old man suddenly stood up and said angrily, "Get the two guys with broken fingers out. I'm going to punish them."
Lucien, who was hiding in the shadow and listening to the noise inside the room, suddenly thought of something, "Is he talking about Uncle Chorre and Aunt Alisa?"
One of the Knight attendants hurriedly tried to stop him, "Lord Johnson, before we succeed, we can't let them die!"
"I understand, but I'm in a very bad mood right now, and I need to vent my anger. And they are the most troublesome prisoners. I have to take them out every one or two days. It's so annoying! I'm just teaching them a lesson! " Johnson said angrily, "Tim, if you don't want to, you can take their place!"
The knight squires knew that Mr. Johnson was very hot-tempered because of his Blessing. They looked at each other and didn't dare to stop him. They took out the key and opened the iron gate.
"You guys." Chorre woke up in a daze. During this period of torture, they were slow to react to the outside world. They didn't even notice the fierce battle on the ground.
Tim kicked Chorre and Alisa awake, "Lord Johnson wants to interrogate you."
Then he moved aside and let Chorre and Alisa go out in fear and worry. Elwyn, who was woken up, gritted his teeth and looked at the scene with hatred. He didn't cry or make any noise. He was much more mature than before.
"Hurry up." Tim kicked Chorre again, making him stumble out of the iron bars and almost fall in front of Johnson.
Johnson picked up the whip on the torture rack and whipped Chorre's back, "You lowly bastards, why do you have to make me so troublesome! Damn it, damn it! "
Although Johnson restrained his power, as a dark Knight, he still whipped Chorre and Alisa until they rolled on the ground and screamed in pain.
The cries of pain made Jason feel a little better, and his irritation over the battle outside eased.
However, the screams of pain also made Lucien clench his fists in the shadow. He couldn't wait to rush in and save them.
"It's not time yet. We have to wait!"
Relying on his great self-control and calmness, Lucien stayed still in the shadow.
…
On the ground, the battle was coming to an end. Among the thirty night watchers, only Clown, Salvatore, Grand Knight Lend, Red Dragon Minsk, and Juliana, a level two battle priest, were left. The rest of the twenty-five night watchers, including one Grand Knight, were all killed, and some of them did not even have their bodies left.
Angora, the High Priest of Argent Horn, floated in the air and cast a powerful spell to weaken the power of the three level-five champions. He coordinated with the other priests, priests, and dark knights to attack head-on.
Angola communicated with the grand priest through short-distance telepathy, "Ilya, these night watchers from the Church are really tricky. They have a lot of powerful divine items. If we didn't have the upper hand, even I, a level seven grand priest, would have to pay a great price to kill them."
Now, many of those divine items had been destroyed by Angola's spells.
"Angola, don't waste any more time. Finish the battle as soon as possible and destroy the entrance of the relic on this side. Don't let the Church find it." Ilya urged Angola.
"Alright." Angola took two seconds to recover. Dark light glowed in his hands, as if he was going to cast a powerful spell.
At this time, the sound of tide suddenly came from the sky. The darkness became blue, and the sea and the sky somehow changed places.
The sky above the deep blue sea collapsed abruptly, turning into a giant blue pillar that pierced through heaven and earth, shrouding Angora in it.
The silver-robed High Priest Ilya sensed this scene through the telepathic connection and stood up immediately.
"'Blue Tide' Camille!"
It was a level seven Sky Knight!
In the sky, two people in red flew over, one male and one female. Their robes, cape, and square hats were all red. They were Gosette and Amelton, the two red robes that assisted Sardes, a saint cardinal and a member of the Grand Cardinal Circle, in managing the diocese of Orvarit.
Behind them, there were a few knights flying over with divine spells and other items.
"Execute everyone! Destroy all traces! Evacuate from the other entrances as soon as possible!" The silver-robed high priest, Ilya, had no time to care about Angora's condition. Through the crystal ball, he hurriedly gave orders to the key personnel inside the ruins. At the same time, he was destroying the altar himself. If the red-robed cardinal saw the complete altar, this mission would be a complete failure.
Although both Ilya and Angola were level seven priests, Angola had been fighting for a while and was attacked by the Sky Knight. There was no way that Ilya and Ilya could defeat two red robes and one Sky Knight. What was more terrifying was that Sardes, the old monster who stood on the top of the world, could arrive at any time. Therefore, Ilya made the decision without any hesitation.
…
In the prison, Johnson received the order from the crystal ball hanging around his neck. Therefore, he waved his whip ferociously.
As soon as Lucien heard the sound of the waves hitting the ground, he knew that this was the chance he had been waiting for. Therefore, before Johnson raised his whip, Lucien had already broken through the iron gate and rushed towards Johnson's back. (To be continued.)
