"I'm sorry," Kohler tore the letter to shreds as he said to Rhaegar sincerely, "There are many people in this empire who want my life, but there are many more people who want me to automatically fall into some trap with ulterior motives, so I have to be careful." This gentle-looking middle-aged man has a special charm that even first-time people can't help but feel close to him.

"Let's still think about how to get out of here," as an undead with countless years of memories, Rhaegar was not attracted by the charm of the other party, he turned around, looked at the demonic beasts that were still frantically pounding outside, and said in a deep voice: "My flying skills can take away any four people and ensure their safety in the air, but the others..."

"I won't leave my people behind," Rhaegar could feel that Khloe's heartbeat was extremely steady as he said this, and if it weren't for the slight change in his soul's fluctuations, even the geist would believe that what he said was from the bottom of his heart, "If one of them didn't leave, I wouldn't leave." The prince said categorically.

There was a look of fanaticism on each of the knights' faces, and it was clear that the concern of the object of their allegiance had made their blood boil, and at this moment, Rhaegar was confident that even if Kohler had asked them to cut off their heads, the knights would not hesitate to do so.

"This man is not just a philanthropist. Rhaegar's instincts told him that there was more to the prince than it seems—or that he was usually gentle, but when faced with an existential situation, his innate temperament was revealed. "Maybe he's really out of touch with the world and doesn't notice his potential at all, maybe everything he's done is a disguise, just a strategy for a higher purpose," the geist thought, "but no matter what, this is by no means a weak and easily coaxed person. At this moment, Rhaegar realized that his original plan had to be modified if he wanted to achieve his goal.

"Since you insist. Rhaegar waved his hand and cast a group healing spell on all the wounded knights, "But I'm afraid we're running out of time, I think you'd better be prepared for battle." Looking at Taniguchi's rippling barrier, the geist said.

The pale yellow barrier came from a palm-sized bronze mirror placed near the entrance to the canyon, and the same color of light shot out from the mirror continuously, condensing into a substance in front of him, resisting the attacks of the beasts for the knights. However, now, under the impact of hundreds of behemoths, the energy of this treasure that Hocker gave to Kohler is gradually depleting - almost every time it is impacted, the light emitted from the bronze mirror will tremble violently, and it will take at least ten seconds for the light source that forms the barrier to stabilize.

"I don't know if these spells will help you survive," Rhaegar gestured, casting one support spell after another that improved defense, agility, and stamina, on the knights, "but at the very least, they will keep you in the fight longer, but that's not necessarily a good thing - sometimes the pain of the wound can make you feel like death is a pleasure." ”

"I'm sorry...", a timid voice interrupted Rhaegar from Northon, the young man blushing and almost stammering, "I don't think we have to fight those monsters. Northon's face turned even redder when he saw that everyone was watching him, but he plucked up the courage to continue, "In my childhood, this canyon was my favorite place to play with my companions, and you know, this rocky canyon is a great place for boys to hide and seek and explore. ”

He then realized that he seemed to be off-topic, which made him feel even more embarrassed, "My cousin and I have discovered a secret passage here that leads to the outside world, and I swear that no one but us knows of its existence. When he said everything he knew, Northon suddenly felt a sense of relief.

The young captain of the guard was not lying, and under his guidance, the knights quickly found the entrance to the secret passage in this closed canyon, a cave hidden among the rocks and weeds, which could only be climbed on their knees, and no one could find it without being warned beforehand.

"It's too narrow here," said a tall knight, looking at the narrow hole, "only small children can pass through here, and it's too big for either our horses or us." ”

"Take off your armor," Kohler ordered without hesitation, "Leave those horses behind, the most important thing for us now is to save our lives." ”

His order was surprisingly not carried out immediately, and dozens of knights looked at each other, apparently reluctant to do as the prince said. For these knights who have been cultivated since childhood, war horses, armor and weapons in their hands are one of the things they value most, those war horses are close partners who have grown up with them, and they have almost achieved the same heart, and those expensive armor engraved with their family marks is not only a symbol of identity and glory, but also an heirloom for the vast majority of people- Not all knights were that wealthy, and most of the knights' armor was inherited from their ancestors, and their income was far from enough to make another armor.

"Knights," Kohler did not give another order, the prince simply looked around at his men and said calmly, "please do not forget your oath. Then he began to take off his rich, strong gold armor.

"A resolute man," was Regara's new assessment of Kohler, "and very clever, and if he forced his men to do what he said, the knights would have obeyed, but it would have left a shadow in their hearts, and if he tempted them with compensation or reward, it was more likely to humiliate the knights who fought for honor—but he only mentioned the knight's oath and took the lead in taking off his armor, which only made his men respect him more." ”

"Without the horses, we would not have been able to escape. Under the Prince's reminder and leadership, the knights made a decision, but before entering the cave, one of the knights asked his own question, "According to Norson, this leads to a small hill outside the canyon, but even when we get there, we still haven't stayed away from those monsters, and we can't outrun them on two legs alone." ”

"The magic I cast on you will increase your speed," Rhaegar said, "and it will make you run as fast as a war horse for an hour - after that, of course, you'll have to lie in bed for a day to regain your strength." He turned around and looked at the demonic beasts outside the canyon who were still storming wildly, and continued: "During this time, I will try to hold off these demonic beasts as much as possible, remember, you only have twenty minutes. ”

"I don't know your name yet," Kohler didn't even say a word of thanks to Rhaeggar's proposal, "about a hundred kilometers north from here, you'll see my castle, where I hope we can meet." ”

"My name is Rhaeggar," Rhaegar was still looking at the monsters, the barrier that blocked them had begun to crumble under the latter's successive attacks, "remember to prepare the most comfortable bed, I haven't slept in it in days." ”

Almost as soon as the last knight entered the cave, with a soft sound like a balloon being punctured, the barrier supported by the bronze mirror finally collapsed, and in the rain of light, the bull-like monsters tasked with hitting their bodies were the first to rush in, gasping for breath, their blood-red eyes shining bloodthirsty, and they rushed to the only creature in the valley at this moment.

A fireball shook the hole behind him, Rhaegar quickly read a few bytes, and countless vines drilled out of the ground without warning, entangled the feet of the running demonic beasts like hunting poisonous snakes, and the huge inertia combined with their own weight, these monsters that were known for frontal charges immediately fell heavily to the ground, and their relatively fragile joints were immediately greatly damaged under such an impact, and they could no longer move. Just a low-level magic, Rhaegar inflicted a heavy blow on the vanguard of the Warcraft.

However, the monsters did not stop, stepping on the bodies of their companions who had fallen to the ground due to injuries, and more monsters rushed towards Rhaeggar.

In the face of the tide of demonic beasts, even an archmage like Rhaegar would not meet it head-on, his body flew into the sky quickly, and at the same time made quick gestures, and the fireball like raindrops fell from the sky after half a second, falling among the demonic beasts.

Meteor Shower, a fifth-order spell, is the biggest difference from the Fireball Spell in its large number, which is an extremely used spell for group combat. Under Rhaegar's casting, the power of this magic was multiplied, and in the blink of an eye, more than thirty demonic beasts that were slow to move and lacked resistance to fire were wrapped in flames, screaming and turning into ashes.

The successive casualties of their companions clearly angered these demonic beasts, and in the earth-shattering roar, countless spells of all kinds flashed into the air with brilliant light, all of which were aimed at Raygar suspended in the sky, and in an instant, the whole body of the geist was surrounded by all kinds of terrifying powers.

Compared to ordinary beasts, demonic beasts are undoubtedly higher beings. These creatures, which are said to have been created by ancient demons and specially placed in other worlds to cause disasters, although they cannot master different magic like mages, each monster has at least one or two spells inherited from the bloodline, some of these spells are not very powerful, and some are enough for an archmage to resist, and under the concentrated attack of hundreds of such magics, Rhaegar's only choice is to dodge.
