CHAPTER VI CHAPTER 76
Celeste's prison was not too heavily guarded, and in the heart of the church, where the top swordsmen and white magic worms were everywhere, there seemed to be no need for further vigilance. So Asa and Ai Mei didn't have much effort, and they knocked the guards unconscious and entered the place.
Most of the cells next to each other were empty, except for the innermost one, where Lancelot had imprisoned Talis to punish his disciples.
When Asa appeared in front of Talis with Aime, she didn't seem to show much surprise, just looked at Asa coldly and said, "Are you really here? What are you doing here?"
She no longer has the usual heroic armor and military uniform on her body now, but the white linen clothes that should be prison clothes seem to look good on her body, and the posture and taste of the woman who is usually completely hidden under the constraints of the armor can only be seen now.
But when he wasn't looking at it now, Asa didn't even dare to look her face in the face, and he reached into his arms and took out the teleportation scroll.
"Of course I got you out. ”
"Don't be presumptuous, who wants you to save me?" Talis's face was still as cold as ice, and she looked at Aiyime, her gaze and tone softened. "Sister, I'm really sorry that my sister didn't take good care of you during this time. Don't worry, the teacher has promised me that as long as this matter passes, he will let you enter the Sanctuary to cultivate and become a member of Celeste......"
"Sister, what nonsense are you talking about, let's all go together. Aimeh looked at Talis quizzically.
"I'm not leaving. Where are you going? I can't go now. Talis shook her head and looked at Assa, the look in her eyes was complicated, it seemed that there was some ridicule and some unbearable, and there were more inexplicable and more intense things. She shook her head with an equally complicated smile. Some said sadly: "You shouldn't have come here, you will be caught in the net." Even if I don't call for someone to arrest you now, you won't be able to escape. ”
In the center of the Shining Castle, in the Hall of Light.
The basilica was as wide as a small square, and the basilica was empty, except for the Pope, sitting on the throne above the end, closing his eyes and meditating. On the edge of his peak is Lancelot. On a stone platform not far in front of the two of them, a pocket with the hilt of the Black Star lay silently on it.
"Sure enough...... Didn't go straight here. The pope, who seemed to be in a false sleep, suddenly opened his eyes slightly, looked at the pocket in front of him and smiled. "Judging from what I got before, I thought he would really try his best to grab it. ”
"Is he the only one? Your Majesty. ”
"It seems that the old fellows like Sandru and Aegrenel are not interested in accompanying him in his adventures...... I don't know if it's our luck or theirs......" The Pope got up from his seat and stroked, "It seems that he will not come to us on his own initiative, we should take the initiative to greet him." ”
"Use the teleportation scroll. You go first. In prison, Asa whispered to Aimeh. Although nothing seemed unusual at the moment, his instincts were always sensing that something was wrong in Talis's attitude.
"But......" Aimee hesitated, Asa had already given her the teleportation scroll she had prepared, but she insisted on waiting to rescue Talis and everyone could use it.
"Hurry up!" Asa almost yelled.
The teleportation scroll was pulled open in Ai Yimei's hand, and the blue light unique to spatial magic flashed out. But only flickered. A burst of white magic ripples surged out of the surrounding air, pulling and squeezing the teleportation magic to dissipate. Ai Mei remained where she was, not teleported.
"How so? It's... Space locks?" Asa looked around in disbelief. But even his True Meditation perception was completely unaware of any abnormalities around him. But even the space lock that prevents teleportation of magic lands. Nor can it last for a long time.
He didn't feel where it came from at all. And that's just the teleportation magic that dissipates into the air, as if that's just a property of the space here.
"It's not a space lock, Celeste doesn't have anything that valuable. With this voice, Lancelot's figure appeared at the door of the cell.
"You ......" Asa was even more surprised, almost jumping in amazement. It was not impossible for Lancelot to follow him silently, but it was impossible to follow him until he was so close that he suddenly reappeared as if he had come out of the ground.
What's even more unlikely is that he also saw that there were other people behind Lancelot, many others.
"Didn't Aegrenel tell you not to come to the Castle of Radiance?" and the Pope, in an old, but steady, soft voice, walked into the cell after Lancelot. "There's no space lock here, but there are people, a lot of people here. ”
The Pope was not tall, but as soon as he walked in and stood there, Asa had the illusion that the old man seemed to be standing on a huge pedestal looking down on him. Even Lancelot, who was much taller than him, didn't seem to be very remarkable.
With the Pope's words, a lot of people immediately appeared in Asa's sight. The surrounding walls shattered, and dozens of Templars were able to tear down the walls of the prison in a matter of breaths, leaving only the four corners to support the roof.
"Actually, I've wanted to see you for a long time, but I didn't have a chance until this time, surrender. The Pope looked at Asa and said lightly.
Although Asa had never seen this old man, from the indifferent aura and natural self-contained temperament that emanated from him, it was clear that this old man with white hair was the current Pope, Gwen Magnus.
Asa didn't speak. It wasn't the first time he'd heard the word 'surrender' from someone to him, and he hadn't paid much attention to this kind of nonsense before, but now it didn't seem to be nonsense. Dozens of Templars, the High Priests above, and the three Templars who were with Negan and Lancelot, as well as Cardinal Adra, were also present. With such an encirclement, surrender really seems to be the only option.
It seems that the anger and injustice come from nowhere, maybe it is not the character of surrender because of nature, the key is that he still has the capital to try, Asa didn't even think about the idea of surrender, he only moved another more practical idea.
Outside the Radiant Castle, the ground on a mound not far away cracked, and as soon as two figures emerged from the ground, they immediately sped towards the Radiant Castle at a rapid speed. The swordsman guards on the outer edge of the castle immediately spotted the two intruders and raised the alarm as they met them.
It was just two men bare-handed, barely clothed, one tall and muscular as a fortress of muscle, the other much thinner. But those elite swordsmen were as fragile as pieces of paper in front of these two men, as long as anyone who stood in their way was pulled by their bare hands and hit to pieces, and these two men had no posture to slaughter,
Just rushing towards the interior of the Glorious Castle.
This Rodhart and Hilica. Although he had a good plan, in case Asa also brought these two Dread Knights with him, but the too strong necromantic aura on their bodies could not be hidden in a place like Radiant Castle where priests were everywhere, so they were only buried outside the city. And now it seems that such careful precautions are indeed necessary.
Even the cheetahs running at full speed didn't have the speed of the two Necro Knights, and the two undead sped towards the area at a speed that surpassed the running speed of any other creature, and anyone and buildings that tried to fend off in front of them were smashed to pieces. As they rushed on, the houses were collapsing, and the masonry limbs were thrown everywhere, like the monstrous waves of two swordfish speeding on the surface of the sea. Mages and clerics wanted to use magic, but the speed at which they could barely catch it with their eyes made it impossible for them to aim.
"That's why you don't want to surrender?" the Pope smiled coldly as he looked at the two necromantic knights who were ramming along the way. "Don't stop them, let them come here. His voice wasn't too loud, but it reverberated throughout the Radiant Castle.
Just in the blink of an eye, Helika and Rodhart rushed in with a bloody wind that came from crashing and killing all the way. Their figures did not stop, but rushed directly towards the Pope. The footsteps of the two Necro Knights were so dense that it looked like a hundred drums were beating at the same time. The surrounding Templars had already surrounded the Pope in the center, drawing their swords and shields, and the priests began to chant prayers.
At this time, the Pope, who was gathered in the center, stretched out his hand, pointed to the two necromantic knights who were about to crash into the human wall in front of him, and said lightly: "Stop." ”
It was as if time had suddenly stood still, and the two Necromantic Knights, who had been crushed and smashed to pieces by everything in front of them, suddenly stopped moving. The two unstoppable monsters immediately froze in place at the Pope's command, and then fell down like two clay statues.
