When the legion led by Dane just passed through the defense facility of the underground passage, the Faceless Men followed closely behind.
The well-prepared defenders, who were only half an hour away from the entrance to the surface, relied on the defense facilities built in the past two years, and began a desperate battle with the Faceless Man.
The commander of the garrison was Golobo, an old acquaintance of Dane, a captain of the old Horror mercenary regiment, who was once a high-ranking figure under Dane's subordinates. However, when he was ordered to guard the entrance of this underground cave with Sacco, he was severely punished by Dane once because he acted without authorization and disobeyed orders, and his future was not so bright. here.
Today's Golobo is no longer as rash as he was two years ago. It's been a long time. The half-orc berserker who already has eight professional levels looks much calmer and has become a qualified battlefield commander.
Facing the army of faceless men coming in front of him, Golob was fearless. He raised the battle ax in his hand high and roared: "Glory is in hand, ready to fight!"
The morale of dozens of soldiers in his headquarters is high!
That is to say, with these dozens of people and the defensive facilities on the defense line, they forcibly withstood the attacks of countless enemies.
In this kind of thing, these defenders under Sako have a lot of experience. They have resisted the attack of the underground Faceless Men here for two years. Although full-scale riots are rare, the experience of countless small-scale battles with these monsters has also taught them how to survive in this narrow terrain. , Borrowing the location, with a very small number of people to resist the attack of monsters that far outnumber them.
The two-meter-high wall is not so easily destroyed by the temporary construction of magic. What's more, behind the wall there are guards standing on the steps and holding spears. The passage that was originally used for passage was blocked again by obstacles after the army passed by.
Under such circumstances, it would be extremely difficult for the Faceless Ones to break through.
Under the impact of countless monsters, Golobo's defense lasted for a full twenty minutes.
It's good that the crude line of defense can last for twenty minutes. In fact, if it wasn't for the appearance of a nightmare corrupter, Golobo should be able to last longer.
But it doesn't matter, this is just the first layer of the tunnel defense line. In the subsequent distance of almost two kilometers, such lines of defense will be very dense, and each one will be stronger than the other!
There is no need to question the defense line of the two underground riots. In fact, within the same time, the number of faceless men attacking is completely meaningless—anyway, the entrance is so big that a thousand people will squeeze it Line up and go out one by one, and the same goes for 10,000.
Only, only those nightmare corrupters are more troublesome things. However, Dane also kept the two high-level spellcasters, Easterling and Finn, including the Templars he brought, and the entire legion that went deep into the ground and killed them back. Given Sacco to command, the entire defense line should have no problems.
At least, it's unlikely that something will happen within a week.
Three days is enough. This is what Eslore said. The priest of the Temple of Orenedu told Dane that it only takes two to three days for the temple to complete the purification of Cthulhu's tentacles.
At this moment, he was holding the sealed box in his arms, and he and Eslor, riding together, rushed towards Auriel at the fastest speed.
It's just that there was an oil bottle behind them.
"... Lord Dayne, what do you want to do with this monster?"
Freya survived after all.
The female knight was on the verge of death in battle and was very weak. But anyway, after being rescued by Dane, the female knight somewhat recovered during the journey back to the surface. And at this moment, when she saw Dane and Asrol hurrying away with Cthulhu's tentacles, she also hurriedly summoned a celestial horse to catch up.
The stuck Dane didn't want to talk to the female knight, but Freya didn't seem to give up. I just heard her continue: "This tentacle contains the power of the evil god. Lord Dane, you must know its danger. Please don't have the intention of taking this thing as your own. A very dangerous thing!"
Dane glanced back at the female knight, feeling a little speechless in his heart—the female knight had such a misunderstanding.
He said: "So this is what you are worried about? Don't worry, I don't have the intention to regard this thing as a treasure. Such an evil thing is bound to be purified by the gods!"
Freya nodded and said: "Since the lord understands, you should hand over this matter to us. We will bring it back to the Cathedral of the Holy Child, and we will never let it affect you again." Your territory."
What a joke, how could Dane agree to Freya's request? Otherwise, what was he doing to fish this thing out of the ground with such old trouble? Isn't it just to sacrifice as a sacrifice
Without a doubt, Dane categorically rejected the female knight's request.
However, there is also a saying of rejection.
Dane said: "No, Priest Eslore said that she can purify this terrible monster in the Hilo Temple in Aurinadu, and there is no need to take it to the remote Holy Infant Cathedral."
Freya was a little anxious. After thinking for a long time, she came up with an excuse: "But... the purification effect in the Cathedral of the Holy Child should be better. The Cathedral of the Holy Child is one of the best cathedrals in the whole world. The blessings of the gods, and the officiant of Xifa is here... "
Dane sneered in his heart, not believing it at all.
There is indeed some difference in which church to purify. The High Priest of Xifa, as Freya said, is a very famous High Priest of the Holy Light in the world of Orodic, and he is a legendary powerhouse. In addition, the Holy Child Cathedral has an out-and-out holy place, where the purification of Cthulhu's tentacles, of course, has the safest success rate, and there is no fear of failure in purification.
But Dane is more able to see people's hearts.
Obviously, if the tentacles of the old evil god can be brought back, one can imagine how much reward Freya will receive for this, and how much benefit the person and place who presided over such a sacrifice will get.
He looked at the female knight and sneered secretly in his heart. If it wasn't for the system and the sacrifices to get rewards, Dane didn't mind being a favor. However, it is of course impossible now!
