Chapter 420: Rescue from the Center of the Earth

In just half a day, Dane completed the assembly of the army and led the team to the entrance of the underground world. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

For a long time, the Sacco Knight, who had been in charge of guarding the entrance to the underground world for two years, had already opened the entrance after being notified.

"Boss, long time no see."

"Long time no see." Dane also sighed.

Back then, in the era of the Dread Mercenary Regiment, Sacco and Delin were his most important right and left hands. And now, that guy Delin is quite active in the hope of being able to become the deputy captain of the main legion, and the wandering knight in front of him has not left his post for two years since he was appointed as the defender of the entrance to the underworld.

Some, Dane felt a little sorry for the knight. Although Sacco has now attained the rank of general, and has been appointed as the head of the defense of Komyrya Island, commanding an entire Komyrya reserve army, it seems that the position is not much different from Verina, but in Dane's power group, Sacko's status is a big step behind others.

He stepped forward, patted the knight on the shoulder, and said, "I've worked hard for you in the past few years. ”

"This is my glory."

Seeing that Sacco still looked resolute, Dane continued: "Everything will get better, the threat of the underworld is coming to an end, your mission will soon be over, and when the time comes, there will be more challenges waiting for you, so get ready." ”

Sacco smiled and said, "I'm always ready to contribute more. But, Boss, there's not much time to say hello, so let's hurry up. This time, I'm also with you, I've been stationed here for so long, and there aren't many people who know more about the underworld than I do. ”

Dane didn't refuse, he meant it that way. I only heard him say, "Okay, you take a squad of good men and act as a guide for our army." ”

"No problem."

Ten minutes later, the corps departed.

……

When Dane made the decision to lead his army to attack the Underworld, he thought about the risk.

He certainly couldn't have been blinded by the benefits and not concerned with the objective difficulty. A plan, no matter how big the benefits, must be feasible enough to be implemented, otherwise what is the difference between it and the splash in the mirror?

No matter how valuable the tentacles of the god were, or how important it was to destroy the threat from the underground, he still had to consider the risks of his trip.

Even if he only led an army of 1,000 people, he didn't want to fall these elites in his hands into the underground world, and he didn't want to throw his life into it.

If Freya and her clergy were in the center of the underworld, the dungeons of the Faceless, then even if there was a real artifact in front of him, Dane would never risk it as soon as his brain was hot.

The 40,000 Faceless Beings in the Underworld are no joke.

However, according to the Templar who survived and returned to the surface to report the news, Freya and the others had already broken through to a point where they were only a day's walk from the entrance to the cave, and Dane decided that they could give it a try.

As the thousand-strong army marched through the winding underworld, Dane was listening to reports from Sacco and Richard at the same time.

Richard was the name of the Templar who narrowly escaped with his life.

“…… Near the entrance to the surface, the terrain on this side of the underworld is still relatively narrow. A large number of passages like the ones we are walking now, with only a dozen or so people walking side by side at about a time, spread around like cobwebs. Some passages are simply a dead end, some passages can lead to the deeper underground world, and the only one that can return to the surface is the one we are taking now. ”

The man who said these words was Sacco. He's been stationed here for so long, and of course he can't be so stupid and incompetent as to set up a defensive line only at the entrance to the cave. Although that is his primary job, in reality, when the Faceless is less cranky, he often sends scout teams to the unknown to explore the terrain. Even, he himself has been here more than once.

He didn't dare to go deeper, but at least, he had almost explored the area near the surface, and he could almost be called a complete know.

The little goblin summoned by the mage, holding the map in his hand, accompanied the advance of Dane and the others, always pulling the map in front of them. And this map is the result of Sacco's exploration of the underworld.

The place in the depths is vaguely marked, but the journey from the entrance to the deeper dungeon, at least three days, is almost exhaustive.

This level of detail has even been recognized by the "Hearts of Dynasty" system, so much so that it has been absorbed and merged by the map module.

Knowing oneself and knowing that the other is invincible, this clear terrain will undoubtedly play a very important role in the next war.

Otherwise, the labyrinthine underground world is really not so easy to walk.

After learning the basic terrain from Sacco, Dane looked at Richard, who was the most important person on the trip, and without him, he would not know where Freya and her clergy were trapped in this labyrinth of underworld.

Fortunately, the young Templar was not confused.

"Your Excellency, don't worry, although I can't accurately point out the specific location on the map, but I have walked through the breakthrough road myself, and I will definitely be able to walk back. Moreover, the knight of Freya also promised me that he would stay where he was, and he would not retreat. ”

"Hmm." Dane nodded, and with a wave of his hand, the mage behind him summoned back the goblin holding the map.

With the Templars leading the way, Dane didn't worry about finding his target; With Sacco and map modules, you don't have to worry about getting lost in the intricacies of the underworld. The only thing left to worry about is only that.

How long will Freya and her clergy be able to endure the siege of the Faceless Ones?

According to the Templar Richard, when he broke through, Freya and the others found a position that was more suitable for defense. It was a dead end, so that with their backs to the wall, they didn't have to worry about enemies from behind them and left and right, and only had to deal with the faceless ones coming from the front. Moreover, the road is not wide, which makes it difficult for the Faceless to take advantage of their sheer numbers.

But despite this, it has been three days since Freya and the others were besieged. Whether they are still alive or not is a complete question mark.
