246 I will go back
In less than half an hour, a very elite regiment of heavy infantry of at least a thousand men was gathered, and they crossed the streets of the royal city at great speed, and all the pedestrians who stood in the way or avoided them were cut to the ground.
With this indomitable momentum, they directly surrounded the Hades Temple.
At this time, it was still late at night, the waning moon was like a hook, and the smooth stairs in front of the temple reflected the cold moonlight, and there were more than a dozen believers standing on it, facing the dense human heads in front of the temple, although they were all expressionless, but judging from the almost frozen atmosphere around them, the nervousness in their hearts was no less than that of the prey meeting the hunter.
In the secret room of the temple's underground graveyard, the second prince Iglaz and Arnold stood facing each other.
The magic crystal lamp in the secret room flickered on and off because of the energy running out, and Arnold's bald head was like a light bulb, turning on and off.
"The army of the Great Prince is coming." Arnold let out a long sigh: "I told you, don't just go out and find out the news, even the most powerful assassin or stalker will miss sometimes. ”
The second prince waved his hand, and there was a hint of impatience on his handsome face: "Now is not the time to shirk responsibility, what should I do next?" If he was on the plains, I wasn't afraid of him, but now in the city, my knights can't fight him. ”
"In other words, apart from the believers of our temple, you have no way to fight!" Arnold chuckled, sarcastically, his bald head seemed to grow brighter: "Our temple has really chosen a troublesome ally." ”
The second prince smiled, and he said sarcastically: "There are no real allies in this world, and there are no real friends, even if family affection is in front of power." It will also be overshadowed. I know you look down on me, and I don't actually take you seriously, but the two of us can sit here now and talk calmly, which is nothing more than profit. ”
"Yes, interests." Arnold patted his bald head. His eyes were full of ridicule: "Second prince, you are very sensible, as rational as your eldest brother, and family affection can't stop power?" Interesting, so what is the status of Princess Emma in your heart? ”
After a moment of silence, the second prince said, "Emma is a good sister, I like her very much. If she doesn't go against me, she's a good sister for my life. ”
"After all, is it still the right to come first?" Arnold laughed, and the voice seemed to be a mockery from the underworld: "It's different from you. Sophie of my family is not my biological daughter, but she is my biological daughter. Our temple will be redeemed to help you escape from the Necropolis, and the one who will take you away is Sophie. She will leave with you. The god of the underworld is above, and Sophie is still too young, she should not go to the underworld to meet the goddess too early. ”
"If your bond is strong, I don't think she will leave the temple. Nor will it leave you. The second prince had a sarcastic smile on the corner of his mouth: "So I think you have to choose another person to take us away." The tunnels of the necropolis are twisty and twisty, and I know that no one can leave without you leading the way. ”
Arnold didn't care about the second prince's sarcastic tone, and the believers of the god of the underworld didn't pay much attention to the opinions of outsiders, he snorted and said, "Those who can leave the temple." Only Sophie. ”
"I'm not leaving." A crisp voice sounded, and Sophie walked in from outside, staring at her father and saying, "Archbishop, I will not leave." Anyway, I'm your daughter. If I leave, what will others think of you. ”
"It doesn't matter what other people think of me." Arnold shielded Sophie and said angrily: "I am the archbishop, you are just an ordinary believer, I let you leave, you are leaving, this is an order." ”
Sophie stubbornly stiffened her neck and replied, "I won't leave, even if you kill me." ”
"You." Seeing that his daughter was so 'sensible', he was so angry that he raised his palm and slapped his daughter in the face: "What's the trouble, if I let you leave, you have to leave, otherwise don't say that you are my daughter in the future." ”
Sophie touched her red and swollen face, and was about to say something more, when Arnold slapped Sophie on the other side of the face, and he said coldly: "If you don't leave, I'll kill you now." Rather than let those beasts hurt you, I'd do it myself. ”
Two slaps in the face, Sophie didn't feel much pain in her face, but her heart hurt. Since she was a child, even if she was naughty, her father only scolded her and never hit her. But now that the slap is worse than the slap, she understands that her father is angry to the bone.
"Father!" Sophie's tears fell like pearls: "I really don't want to leave you. ”
"Take the second prince and get out of here now." Arnold pointed to the secret passage outside, and said in a cold tone: "Otherwise, I will kill you now, and if you still have a little father-daughter relationship, don't let me do this." ”
In the doctrine of the god of the underworld, cannibalism is a forbidden event, and if there is no special reason, the soul of the god of the underworld who kills his own relatives with his own hands will be hung by the goddess on the wall of sighs forever, blown by the yin wind, and will howl in pain forever, endlessly.
Sophie snorted, she wiped away her tears, then turned her head to look at the second prince, gritted her teeth and said, "Follow me." ”
The second prince, who was watching the play on the sidelines, smiled, and said to Arnold: "Archbishop, don't worry, as long as I can ascend to the throne, I will definitely make the Hades Temple the state religion." ”
"This contract has been certified by the goddess, and I forgive you and dare not go back." Arnold spoke coldly, then looked at his daughter Sophie: "Now you can go." ”
The indifferent tone, that disgusted look, Sophie looked at it and gritted her teeth gently, she didn't say anything, just hooked her hand to the second prince, and then left the secret room.
Arnold waited for his daughter to leave, he looked at his hands, and then slapped them viciously against the wall, several times, until they were red and swollen, and he did not stop.
"I actually hit my daughter with these hands!"
Arnold, with regret and pain, also left the secret room, he decided to transform the unventable depression and pain in his heart into killing intent, he wanted to take the soldiers outside, kill as many as possible, and crush all their souls to pieces.
Sophie and the second prince walked briskly through the secret passage, and Ignaz tried to talk to her, but received no response.
Halfway through the walk, they met a young man who saw Sophie, stopped his eyes, and looked at her steadily.
The secret passage was dim, and the young man's eyes were cold and faintly hostile, and as Sophie passed by him, he whispered, "You have brought everything to the source of the calamity. ”
Sophie's body shook when she heard this, but she didn't stop, but continued to walk forward.
The second prince glanced back at the young man, but he didn't ask anything, but continued to follow Sophie.
Outside the temple door, the priests who blocked the door were now sweating profusely.
On the opposite side of them, at least two hundred strong bows were drawn, and at the slightest command from the other party, these arrows would be fired. Although most of them know the magic of 'defensive arrows', there is a limit to the number of attacks this magic can receive, and it is unknown how many people in the realm can survive if they can break their magic with a single volley.
"Eight!"
The commander of the eldest prince was counting down, and the negotiation just now made him understand one thing, and there was no point in reasoning with the priests of the temple who did not turn their heads.
"Seven."
There was more sweat on the foreheads of the priests.
"Six."
With each countdown, the momentum of the commander will be stronger by two points, and the priests on the opposite side will be more and more demoralized.
"Don't count." A heroic voice came from the temple, Arnold strode out, he looked at the army under the steps of the temple, looked at the arrows with cold light, and then looked at the commander of the other party, and said slowly: "The army of the second prince has left. ”
The commander glanced at him, and the corners of his mouth pursed a sneering trace: "Five. ”
Arnold looked at the commander and saw that the other party's expression was very firm, he took a deep breath, and then roared: "Do it." ”
A blazing black mist burst out of him, and the black mist turned into ugly black skulls that crashed into the army below the steps.
Seeing this, those priests also moved together, and in an instant, the black magic absorbed the moonlight of the entire area.
"Attack!" The commander drew his sword, pointed forward, and roared, "Magician dispels the darkness. ”
Since they are going to besiege the Hades Temple, they will naturally bring the magicians of the Light Department over. The two magicians hidden in the army began to chant incantations, and a large ball of light rose above each head, instantly breaking through the darkness without a trace.
"Kill, leave no one."
The commander's sword slashed forward, two hundred strong bows shot the first rain of arrows, and the heavily armored infantry, with shields in hand, charged side by side.
High in the sky, Joan of Arc, who had just finished resting, was circling, and at this time Liang Lidong was also resting, he suddenly jumped up, put on his magic robe, and rushed to the direction of the Hades Temple.
Sophie took the second prince and his cavalry regiment to advance through the secret passage, which was lined with layers of gray-yellow skulls. Those skulls are within their reach, they are all soldiers, they are not afraid of dead bodies, let alone skeletons, but there are too many skulls here, so many that they are terrifying, one on top of the other, layer upon layer, innumerable.
Looking at such a scene, no matter how bold the people of the Knights were, they were silent.
The second prince followed Sophie, who looked at Sophie's back with interest...... This is a girl with a good figure, although she is not as beautiful as her little sister, but she has a different flavor.
The secret passage of the cemetery is long and far for outsiders, but for insiders, it is only a few minutes away.
Sophie pointed to the end of the dark secret passage in front of her and said, "That's the exit, you guys go quickly." ”
The second prince looked at her: "What about you?" ”
"I'm going back to be with my father."
Sophie smiled coldly at the second prince, then turned to leave. (To be continued.) )
