Chapter 416: Evacuation
The Nightingale followed the route she had figured out before, passed through the top of the three floors, and fell directly into the dungeon where the Marquisa was imprisoned. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
Speer Passy heard the noise, raised his head, and couldn't help but widen his eyes, "You...... Where did you get in?"
She made a silent gesture and limped out of the iron door, where two guards stood in the aisle, dressed as churchgoers. She took advantage of the mist to step behind the two men, drew her dagger and quickly slit their throats - the two men would not have expected anyone to attack from inside the prison and did not look back until they died.
Back in prison, Nightingale has a chance to check on her injuries.
I saw that Soloya's special windproof pants had been cut open, and the blood on the calf was not stopping, and the wound was almost as deep as a fingernail, probably the enemy's magic whip penetrated the trouser leg from the side, and at the same time took away a piece of flesh, but fortunately it did not hurt the bone. If it weren't for the toughness of the coated pants, I am afraid that this blow would have hurt me even more.
"You're hurt," Speer frowned.
"It's not a big problem, we have to get out of here, if we don't go you'll be a corpse," Nightingale didn't tell the Marquisess that the Holy Envoy was going to take her to Hermes, and in her opinion, it was no different from death, maybe worse, "They didn't know you were a witch until they captured you, it was all a conspiracy led by the Church, and all they wanted was the position of Lord of Falling Dragon Ridge." β
"My brother ...... then"
"Nine times out of ten, I have become a puppet of the Church, and I will explain to you when I get to the road," Nightingale tied the top of the wound tightly with the gauze she carried with her, "Where is the lock of divine punishment?"
The Marquis pointed to her neck, "At first it was just a chain tied to the feet, but then they changed it to this." β
Hell, the nightingale's heart sank, and he saw a thumb-thick metal ring tied around the other party's neck - this kind of divine punishment lock is to stuff several divine stones into an iron ring, and then use special tools to close them together, which is extremely difficult to untie by personal strength alone.
"Do you remember which room you put the locking tools in?"
"In the cell at the entrance, they took me to that place on the lock. β
Apparently, when the Holy Envoy discovered her true identity, she changed to the safest shackles, which could trap almost all witches except for the transcendent.
If you want to leave with Speer, you must first remove this thing, otherwise you will not be able to pull her into a fog.
"Let's go to the first cell," Nightingale decided, "you come with me." β
Fighting the stinging pain in her legs, she returned to the fallen guard, retrieved the key, and opened the door.
At that moment, a crisp bell rang from the top of the tower, and the rapid sound of the bell echoed through the silent building, as if it were striking at her heart.
"It's an alarm from the church," Speer said.
"Sooner or later, they will come," said the nightingale in a deep voice, "and only if they move faster than the enemy will they have a chance of surviving." β
The alarm sounded at this time, in a sense, it helped her, and the believers stationed in the basement heard the bell ringing and gathered at the only exit from the prison, which undoubtedly gave the nightingale a chance to catch it all.
She descended from the fog and pulled the trigger on the men, several bullets piercing the body after hitting the first target, and then straight into the body of the second person, splattering a large pool of blood. The Divine Punishment Stone they wore was the most striking target in the black and white world, and they were armed with swords and shields in the face of the elusive nightingales, but they didn't know where to cut. By the end of the two rounds of shooting, there was not a single living guard in the cell.
But she knew that this was only the lowest level of the church, and that the heavily armed Inquisitors would soon arrive here, and that it would be impossible to escape if they could not lift the Punishment Stone by then.
"Come here!" she quickly found the lockβan iron instrument perched against the wall, with two rusty calipers sticking forward, what at first glance looked like a horrific torture instrument.
Speer pressed his neck to his caliper, and Nightingale pulled on the bolt and shook the handle. Under the effect of the belt, the calipers parted to the sides, breaking a gap in the lock of divine punishment.
At the same time, the sound of the Inquisition's armor shaking can be seen in the dungeon doorway.
"They're there!" someone shouted.
"Aim-shoot!"
"Let's go!" the nightingale pulled Speer up and fled into the fog, but a cloud of lightless black holes shot straight at her, tearing the fog apart in an instant.
Nightingale felt a cold sweat on his forehead, and after breaking out of the cover, the figures of the two were completely exposed to the judgment warriors - it has to be said that the training of these people is very different from that of ordinary believers, and in the first round of shooting, they only shot the crossbow arrows roughly in the direction of the passage, both in front and behind, on the left and right, so that the forbidden effect of the divine stone could block the road, and only half of them participated in the first attack.
And the other half was waiting for the moment when the witch appeared.
With a clear goal, the second wave of accumulation is instantaneous.
Hearing the hum of loose strings behind him, Nightingale pulled the Marquis in front of him and shouted, "Bow down!"
The stinging pain of the piercing heart suddenly came from behind, she didn't know that she had been shot by a few arrows, and the pain spread like flames, but her footsteps did not stop for a moment.
Walking around the corner of the cell, Nightingale felt a salty smell coming from her mouth, probably caused her to bite her lip from the pain just now, "Are you okay?"
"I ...... I'm fine," said the Marquis, a little stunned, "youβyou just blocked the crossbow for me?"
"If you shoot you, you'll be saved, but if you shoot me, I'll not necessarily be fine. The nightingale reached out and touched his back, and sure enough, not a single arrow shot through Zoroya's windproof suit - although the back was like being burned by fire, as long as it did not penetrate the body, it would be bruised at most, and more importantly, it would not let the powder of the divine stone seep into his body.
The Judgment Samurai hurried towards this direction, probably not expecting that the two of them would be able to block the second wave of crossbow arrows without a shield, and the stop-and-go shooting had already opened up some distance between the two sides.
Freed from the constraints of the Stone of Punishment, the nightingale grabbed Speer, unfurled the mist, and sprinted straight up the changing lines, through the floors and dirt to the outside of the tower, and then pulled a bamboo tube from his waist bag and pulled down the fuse.
Dazzling red light burst out of the bamboo tube, soaring into the sky, and then exploded into a dense circle of light spots, like countless more stars in the sky.
I remember that when His Highness handed this over to herself, she was still nagging about a cloud-piercing arrow, and thousands of troops came to meet her, and now she didn't need thousands of troops, she just hoped that Maisie could see this signal.
Soon, a huge shadow fell from the sky, and Maisie landed beside the tower with ten thousand powers, her burly body directly crushing the wall, and the air flow of her wings flapping blew away the surrounding fog.
"This ...... What is this?" Speer Passy's eyes widened.
"My companion," Nightingale asked Lightning to help secure the Marquis to Maisie, and with the last of her strength she climbed up her back and patted her rough body, "take off. β
"Whoaββββββ whoaββββββ Maisie let out a terrifying roar at the pursuing Inquisitors, then flailed her wings and soared into the air, carrying the two of them up quickly, and quickly disappeared into the night sky.
