Chapter 9 Mercenary Regiment

Priest Dro's expression was strange when he heard this, after all, the contradiction between these two princes had been heard of for a long time. In the matter of the Starlight Dragon, the members of the two royal families originally had their own opinions. Not to mention the resurrection of the princes who claimed to have died one by one, and now even two Starlight Dragons have appeared.

Although these priests were disciples of the goddess Mona, they could not tell who was real and who was fake. Now that the two princes are about to fight in their own territory, they really have no right to speak.

But as a white Modi who was accustomed to neutrality and a clergyman who had spent most of his life in the Golden Dome Palace and made the palace his home, Priest Dro still felt that it was best not to really fight, so he carefully opened his mouth to dissuade him.

"Your Highness, Sagen is no longer under our control, and since Prince Hirley was stationed, he has replaced us with his own men. I'm afraid it's not safe for you to go alone. As far as I know, there are now thousands of mercenaries in the 'Great Prayer Hall' alone. Why don't I go and tell Prince Helley, and you two sit down and talk first? ”

"It's not that I can't say it at the moment, it's that there's nothing to say. Shili behind Heray is the Demon Dragon King, and I watched him possessed by the Demon Dragon King back then, and watched him being killed by Flynn and Dr. Wat together. This man, who had been dead for two years, was resurrected by the dark magic of Bran. And the so-called starlight dragon he brought was also made of other monsters through magic, and the raw material was the soul of a human. They are building a lot in the Golden Dome Palace, building evil devices, collecting wanderers everywhere, don't you even know it?"

Dellando's questioning left Priest Dro speechless, although they were driven out of the core area of the Golden Dome Palace, the strange devices that kept being sent into the palace from the top of Lantau Mountain through slings, and the homeless people who were taken in in the name of healing and purification were indeed very suspicious.

"But Governor Shakolin, he knows......" Droz did not finish his words, for he saw that Shakolin was hurrying from Fischer House with a troop of men.

"Your Highness, I have arranged everything outside, and the people around me have begun to evacuate, and I have also asked the non-combatants of the Golden Dome Palace to start evacuating. Hey, Priest Dro, what are you doing standing here stopping Your Highness?Why don't you hurry up and escort Your Highness down to finish off that false prince's lair?" Shakolin Urn Weng's loud voice shouted as he ran, and when he came to the front, he had already explained everything outside.

"No, you all stand down, I feel that Fikelen has done some new tricks, you better stay away. As he spoke, Diarlando pointed to the sky, and out of nowhere flew a large swarm of insects, thin cyan wings, a little like a dragonfly, a long tail much thinner than an ordinary dragonfly, a strange bright purple at the tip, and hung straight like a needle under the almost transparent tubular torso.

"Steel-tailed dragonfly! It's Ficalen's enhanced parasite that can stimulate the body's potential and erase the fear and pain of the parasited. Fayle set up a pergola with his hand, squinted for a moment, and came to a conclusion. Although it is too far away, and the insect is small, he can't see it very clearly with his shili, but the unique color and the sound of flapping wings should be guessed as good as ten.

The strange swarm didn't fly here, but headed straight for the temple high up. Fayer happily rubbed his hands together and said, "Fikelen has really invested a lot of money, and it seems that he plans to arm those mercenaries to stop us." ”

To some extent, the steel-tailed dragonfly can be regarded as a treasure, which can greatly improve a person's ability in a short period of time. If their toxins are extracted and mixed with the right potions, a very powerful enhancer can be made. However, the side effects are also very large, which can make people fluttery and addictive. Watching so many reinforcement raw materials flying around, Fayer's saliva was about to flow.

Deirlando didn't bother with Priest Drew, pulled the reins of his horse, and quickly rushed in the direction of the swarm, and Fair and Shakorin hurriedly followed. Priest Dro looked at the dense unknown creatures in the air, and then turned to the men who were looking at each other and ordered: "What do you see, didn't you hear that His Highness told us to evacuate? Notify everyone immediately and evacuate at full speed." Don't take anything. ”

After 30 years of being in the Golden Dome Palace, what should be done and what should not be done, Priest Delo knows very well. Looking at the group of people who rushed up the hill in a hurry, Priest Dro shook his head and sighed, and then ordered: "Go and ask the Sunnia priest to organize a team of the most healing priests to stand by nearby, soon there will be a large number of casualties here." ”

As a courtier, you still have to have a little conscience, and when they finish fighting, they still have to clean up the battlefield. After arranging everything, Priest Dro hurriedly evacuated outside the Golden Dome Palace, surrounded by the temple guards.

Running all the way up the top steps, there is a Cergenti ring tower built mainly of beige granite and marble. The floor and walls are made of large white stones with metal trimmings, and a three-story double-storey carved wooden door, the Blind Gate, stands in the way.

Carved from haode glazed gold wood, the gate is nearly 400 years old and is said to have been a gift from a foreign country in the hands of an elven architect. The whole Jinding Palace's building complex is reproduced with the technique of relief carving, there are not only buildings but also tens of thousands of worshippers in the relief, all of them kneel with their eyes closed, and worship the "Great Prayer Hall" devoutly, so it is named the Gate of Blindness.

There was a passage about thirty feet long from the top of the stairs to the Blind Gate, and although it was impossible to see anything with the naked eye at the moment, Fayle could clearly feel his cold hairs stand on end. The clearing in front of me was filled with magic traps, and the energy radiated by those traps was so high that you could feel it on your skin, just like before the thunder and lightning on the top of the mountain during a thunderstorm were about to slash down. Such a blatant trap, even if you can't see it, no one will step on it, right?

"There are traps......," said Fayle, who was about to persuade Diarlando to take a detour, when Resis swooped into the middle of a pile of traps. In an instant, at least a dozen flame stumbling ropes, seven or eight meteorite henges, and four or five disintegration techniques were activated.

The layers of magical attacks made the eyes shine, and everyone couldn't open their eyes. In the midst of the fierce wind, a rumbling and crackling sound was heard, and when the light finally weakened, the blind gate that had existed for hundreds of years had been destroyed, and even the buildings on both sides were blown down. Resis stood contentedly in the big black pit and licked his mouth, his size had risen to the size of a sheep.

The young dragon happily flicked its tail and purred and continued to fly inside. Dearlandor's horse, though not yet running wild under his magical control, trembled on all fours. Seeing that this road was really impossible to walk, he simply jumped off his horse, climbed the big tree next to him, and followed Restey into the worship square inside the gate.

Fayle had already been thrown off his horse, and now he was rubbing his ass and getting up, glaring resentfully at the reckless pair of fellows who had already passed the big pit. The big pit in front of him, which is more than 40 feet long and more than 30 feet wide, completely blocks the way up the mountain, and if you don't use the levitation technique, you can't go through it at all, and if you make a detour, it seems that you have to go around a long way.

Shakolin decisively ordered his men to cut down trees and build bridges, and he himself helped to do it. As the armor was reforged, his weapon was forged again, a spear with two blades, resembling a harpoon.

I saw him plunge his spear into the trunk of the big tree where the two of them were hugging, and the water waved, and the part of the trunk where the spear was inserted suddenly turned into powder. Under the control of the others, the tree fell to the top of the crater. The soldiers opened the way in front, quickly trimming the thick branches of the tree trunks, and in a short time they made a makeshift road.

While the people behind were busy in a mess, Diarrando had already moved on to the next round of the battle.

The majestic golden-domed palace stands in front of you, and the wide square paved with colorful marble is full of people. The men were loosely stacked in separate groups, and at first glance they were not well-trained troops, but more like mercenaries recruited from all over the place. The largest group of people was about two hundred, most of them were close warriors, with a dozen mages and a few priests in the back. A heavily armored warrior about nine feet tall took two steps forward with a huge square copper hammer, and seemed to be the leader of the group.

Before he could speak, a long black arrow suddenly pierced the sky and shot straight at Diarlando with a sharp whistling sound. Deirlando didn't let go, and raised his hand to easily catch the arrow in his hand.

He glanced at the poisoned tip of the arrow, threw it aside with a sneer, looked around at the surrounding enemies, and said, "If you are still conscious, quickly retreat." If you continue to be my enemy, whether you are for money or for being controlled, he will be your example for the next moment. After saying that, he transformed the magic sword in his hand into the form of a longbow and released an arrow in the direction of the sneak attack just now.

The archers hiding above the main hall of the Golden Dome Palace had naturally long since retracted behind the intricate granite sculptures. However, the white magic arrow feather ignored the thick rock at all, as if a heavy hammer had smashed into the bottom of the balcony where he was, directly penetrating the two-foot-thick rock and blasting the people hiding there to pieces.

Blood was accompanied by unbelievable exclamations, and shattered stones were scattered from the golden roof of the "Great Prayer Hall", and with a rumbling sound, they finally smashed into the square full of mercenaries.

There was a commotion from the mercenaries, they just got the order to come out to fight, but they didn't expect to meet such an opponent. Not to mention anything else, the weapon in Deerlando's hand was simply an artifact, and no one had ever seen such a thing that could be freely transformed and so powerful.

However, the leader didn't even glance at what was happening behind him, he collided with his own hammer with his thick fist, let out a metallic thud, and then roared.

As he roared, the muscles in his body began to bulge, and his face was covered with hideous green tendons and blood vessels. Crimson lines stretched up the neck, and saliva squirted everywhere along with a roar. By the time his eyes turned blood-red, the battle intent had filled his body, so he took a big step and rushed towards Deirlandor with a hammer in his hand.

Deirlandor twisted his neck, made a beeping sound, and after moving his body, turned the longbow into a two-handed greatsword, indulged his magic, made the blade longer and wider, and swept towards the berserker in front of him.
