Chapter 437: Escape
Then I saw Sharp wave his hand violently towards the bookshelf, and an invisible holy force suddenly shattered the bookshelf, revealing the dark passage behind the bookshelf.
Looking at the deep secret passage, Sharp's face sank, he thought that he knew everything about the situation in the palace, but this secret passage was something Sharp had never expected.
"Hmph, they fled before us, it seems that the killing of the cardinal must be a royal plan, otherwise why would they run away? The two of you lead the Red Crossers on patrol outside the city, and if you find their tracks, you will be killed! ”
Although this can be used to put the blame on the royal family, it is always a hidden danger not to kill people, so the royal family must not be given any way to live, and they must be killed to eliminate future troubles.
Hearing this, the two white-clothed bishops arched their hands towards Sharp and replied, "Yes, Lord Bishop." ”
didn't be stunned any longer, and the two immediately led people away.
Sharp returned to the church after ordering people to guard this secret passage, after all, as a cardinal, he didn't have to do everything himself.
In the dark passage, everyone held their breath and walked quickly forward.
It was a quarter of an hour from the palace to the outside of Saming, and these two quarters of an hour were very painful for everyone.
At this moment, Laura suddenly spoke: "Father, I guess they have discovered the location of the secret passage, then Sharp is sinister and treacherous will definitely intercept us outside the city, what should we do after we get out of the secret passage?" ”
Hearing this, Moruk reassured: "Don't worry, this secret passage is very hidden, if it can be discovered so easily, can it still be called a dark passage?" And I've already requisitioned troops to respond, so don't panic. ”
Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
These ministers, though they were old, were all human spirits, and they were well aware of their situation, and if they fell into the hands of the church, they would surely die.
After another quarter and a half hours of travel, everyone finally came to the end of the dark passage.
Moruk stepped forward, fiddling with the wall, and then heard a crisp "click", and the stone wall slowly moved to the side, and in a short time a passage opened.
The moment the passage opened, the sound of water and a damp breath hit her face, which made Laura suddenly shocked, "This is Kaski Falls!" ”
"That's right." Moruk nodded in affirmation, "This secret passage is hidden behind the waterfall, and it is impossible for the church to find it." ”
Moruk led the way, and the crowd followed, and in a short time they came to the waterfall, where the mist of the falling water made their clothes slightly wet.
Seeing that there was no road ahead, Laura asked aloud, "Father, where should I go next?" ”
Moruk replied, "Jump off here!" ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone frowned, not to mention how high this place was from the bottom of the waterfall, the impact of the waterfall alone was unbearable for them, after all, these ministers were all old men, and where could the old arms and legs withstand such a toss.
Looking at everyone's expressions, Moluk said with a serious face: "This secret passage was originally used for escape, since it is an escape, it is already very good to be alive, where can you still pick and choose; If the church were to patrol outside, we could take advantage of the impact of the current, and if we let you run on land, would you outrun the Red Crusaders? ”
What Moruk said made a lot of sense, and everyone's faces softened a little.
Although there is a certain risk in this, if they are caught by the church, what will happen to them.
"John, you're here to make the way for everyone!"
Moruk beckoned to John, no matter how John said it, it was a nine-rank holy cultivator, which was not the slightest danger to him, it was better than these ministers opening the way in front.
John didn't complain about this, and then walked to the front and jumped straight from the hole to the bottom of the waterfall.
"Keep up, keep up, stay as close as possible so that you can have a response."
Moruk reminded the crowd, and as soon as the words fell, one of the guards jumped down.
This guard was John's retinue, so he naturally had to follow John's footsteps closely, and it would be safer to follow John's footsteps, and John would not let himself go if he encountered danger.
The guard was obviously much wiser in dealing with such a problem than the hesitant ministers.
But what's the use of hesitating now? After all, you still have to jump, and it is better to die in this turbulence than to be executed by the people of the church.
With one minister taking the lead, everyone also jumped down, and in order to prevent those ministers from drowning, each minister had a guard to take care of them, which could somewhat ensure the safety of the minister.
The last to jump down were Moruk and Laura, both of whom were nine-rank holy cultivators, so it was naturally suitable to use them after the break.
Although it is very likely that they will be caught up by the church after the break, they can also fight back with their own strength.
"Poof!"
Moruk and Laura plunged into the water, and the current hit their backs, nearly bottoming out.
Luckily, you only need to swim forward to escape the area, and you can quickly go downstream with the current.
The width of the river is only three meters, and the current is crystal clear but quite fast.
Laura opened her eyes underwater, and saw that the riverbed seemed to have been deliberately treated, there were no rocks and weeds in the riverbed, and the river was quite regular, there were almost no big bends all the way down, as long as you could stabilize your body, you didn't have to worry about hitting the shore.
But at the moment when Laura came out of the water, the Red Crossers rushed from a distance, and at the same time shouted loudly: "They are in the river, chase them!" ”
Seeing that the Red Tenth Army was planning to intercept them in front, Laura and John took action to repel them.
Repelling them was just a piece of cake for Laura and John, but when they saw the Holy Envoy holding the Holy Weapon galloping from a distance, both of them had heavy faces, and the Holy Envoy was a veritable Nine Rank Holy Cultivator!
Although Laura and John are also nine-rank holy cultivators, the two of them do not have holy weapon bodies, and there is still a gap between them and the strength of the holy envoy.
Just as the two were about to fight one of them, Moluk suddenly jumped up from the water, and then drew a long sword from his waist and slashed at the holy envoy.
The Holy Envoy looked at Moruk who was attacking him, and the corners of his mouth pulled a trace of disdain, and then he activated the holy weapon to prepare to fight against it.
But at this moment, I saw that Moluk's long sword suddenly lit up with a dark green light, and a dark green figure also appeared behind Moluk.
Laura looked at it and found that the figure was extremely familiar, and after taking a closer look, Laura suddenly looked shocked, and couldn't help muttering, "That...... That's Scott? ”
