Wiping off the purple-black blood that stuck to his face and splashed out from the big mouth of the nightmare corrupter who was pierced by him and burst open, Dane looked down at Freya who fell on the ground, saying nonsense Without saying anything, he asked directly:
"Where's the tentacle?"
Don't think that Dane is here to rescue these Templars, it's just by the way. He doesn't care about the life and death of these temple knights represented by Freya at all, all he cares about is Cthulhu's tentacle.
Freya was stunned by his appearance, she raised her stiff hand and pointed backwards. She was referring to an elderly priest who seemed to be the oldest in the priesthood.
Dane walked along her fingers, came to the priest, and stretched out his hand.
The old priest was holding a brass-like box, on which was engraved with the pattern of an angel in a hollow technique. In the center of the box, there is a groove, on which is inlaid a diamond that emits glistening white light. There is no doubt that that diamond must be the legendary sacred diamond that can suppress all demons in the world.
Sacred diamonds are rare treasures in this world, but Dane, as the overlord of one party, can't see such things in his eyes. The tentacles of the evil god that were temporarily suppressed in the box were what he really longed for.
The old pastor seemed to understand what Dane meant. He hugged the box tightly in his arms and said vigilantly: "This evil god's tentacles are going to be sent to the Holy Child Cathedral for purification. They are truly evil things, Dane." Lord, don't..."
Not bothering to listen to his nonsense at all, Dane stretched out his hand directly, and before he finished speaking, he directly pulled the box over.
How can a priest compare with Dane in terms of strength
Dane's actions made the surrounding atmosphere tense. Seeing that the thing he desperately protected fell into his hands, the paladins and gods around him closed their doors, and they all felt tense. They were at a loss. If the sealed box fell into the hands of the enemy, they would have nothing to say, and they would try their best to get it back. But in this situation, they really don't know what to do.
They looked at Freya who had just stood up from the ground, clutching her arms and shoulders, as if they wanted to hear her opinion.
And the first thing that came to the female knight's mind was the scene of Dane leading the army to kill the nightmare corrupter with a single sword in the fire and moonlight.
She bit her lower lip lightly and said, "Let the lord take care of the seal box. Can we break through now?"
Dane glanced at her, very satisfied with the female knight's sense of time. He said: "Yes, let your people stand up, I won't wait for you here, and prepare to break through immediately!"
After a while, all those who could stand up followed closely behind Dane and walked towards the front of the passage.
After crossing the corpse of the Nightmare Corruptor, a squadron of nightsaber elf cavalry was on standby, and before them, the high-ranking mage Easterlin and the high-ranking priest Eslor were also waiting for Dane's return.
Dane handed the box to the priestess casually, told her to keep it safe, and asked the entire Nightsaber Squadron to protect the priestess before leaving. And in a place further ahead, fierce battles are in full swing.
After his army attacked this area and found Freya and the others, they cleaned up all the Faceless Men in this area.
This is not an easy task, especially in the case of endless enemies coming from the direction of the dungeon.
Dayne's army did this at no small cost. The nightsaber cavalry had been holding on to the useless moonblades, and they threw them all out during this battle. Many moonblades were too late to take back, so many leopard cavalry could only fight with scimitars. As for the elite ranger troops, under the frantic and violent shooting, many people's arms were convulsed due to fatigue.
With great difficulty, after reducing the number of enemies to an acceptable level, the White Wolf Guards stepped up and firmly blocked the faceless men who were pouring in continuously from the outside of several passages.
It is true that the White Wolf Guards are elite, but objectively speaking, they are no match for the Knights Templar. Only half an hour after they arrived here, more than fifty white wolf guards had already died in battle, and quite a few were injured. If it weren't for the ranger troops behind to suppress with arrows, and the night saber cavalry to help fill the loopholes in the defense line and cull the faceless men who crossed the defense line, the number of casualties would have doubled or tripled.
Under the fierce, life-or-death onslaught of enemies far outnumbering their own, Dane's army faced a bitter battle.
Fortunately, the goal has now been achieved.
The order to prepare to break out and retreat was quickly issued. Under the order of the archer commander, the elf rangers no longer held back their hands. Even if their fingers were cut by the bowstring, they gritted their teeth and insisted on firing bows and arrows. The dozens of mages who followed the army and hadn't made a move all this time also called out the power of magic, calling out flames or ice.
With the joint efforts of the caster and the shooter, they temporarily knocked the enemy back for a moment. But immediately, more figures of the enemy were already faintly visible in the darkness, and it was estimated that they would rush over soon.
"Block the passage!" Dane yelled at Easterling beside him.
High-ranking wizards immediately begin preparing spells. With the waving of the staff, several stone walls quickly sealed off the entire passage.
"We have to leave immediately." Freya said next to Dane, "Our spellcasters have tried to use this kind of spell to block the passage before, and we even blew up the corridor, but it didn't take long for these monsters to disappear The channel will be re-opened, and there is not much time left for us."
"Of course I know what to do." Dane replied with a serious face. While they were talking, the well-trained elite troops had already begun to retreat.
Under the constant trembling of the stone wall that sealed the passage, all the soldiers under Dane's command set foot on the way back.
And not long after running back, there was a loud bang behind him—the stone wall must have collapsed!
"The White Wolf Guard is ready to meet the enemy! Another stone wall, Easterling."
"OK."
Thus, the difficult road to return began under the protection of heavy shields and spells.
Now, they are just a day away from the surface. But the day's journey was not easy, until they saw the defense line set up in the tunnel by Sako's army, the loss of the entire army had exceeded one-third.
But anyway, they had escaped.
