Chapter 416 Evacuation

Nightingale followed the route she had figured out before, passed through the three-story roof, and fell directly into the dungeon where the Marquise was imprisoned.

Spier Passi heard the noise, raised his head, and couldn't help but widen his eyes, "Where did you...come in from?"

She made a silent gesture and limped out of the iron gate. There were two guards standing in the aisle, who looked like they were church members. She used the mist to step behind the two of them, pulled out a dagger and quickly cut their throats. The two of them never expected that someone could attack from inside the prison, and they did not even look back until they died.

After returning to the prison, Nightingale had a chance to check her injuries.

I saw a tear in Soraya's specially made windproof trousers. The calf was bleeding. The wound was almost as deep as a fingernail. The enemy's magic whip probably penetrated the trousers from the side and took away a piece of flesh. Fortunately, No bones were broken. If the coated pants weren't so tough, I might have been injured even more seriously by this blow.

"You're hurt," Speer frowned.

"It's not a big problem. We have to leave here. If you don't leave, you will turn into a corpse." Nightingale did not tell the Marquis that the Holy Envoy planned to take her to Hermes. In her opinion, it was nothing like death. The difference, perhaps worse, is, "They didn't even know you were a witch before they arrested you. This was all a conspiracy led by the church, and all they wanted was the position of Lord of Falling Dragon Ridge."

"Then my brother..."

"Nine times out of ten, he has become a puppet of the church. Time is running out. I will explain to you on the way." Nightingale tightly tied the upper part of the wound with the gauze she carried with her. "Where is the Lock of Divine Punishment?"

The Marquise pointed to her neck, "At first it was just a chain tied to my feet, but later they changed it to this one."

Damn it, Nightingale's heart suddenly sank. She saw a metal ring as thick as a thumb tied around the other person's neck. This kind of divine punishment lock is made by stuffing several divine stones into the iron ring and then closing them together with special tools. Personal power is extremely difficult to unlock.

"Do you remember which room the locking tools are in?"

"The entrance to the cell, they took me to the lock on that place."

Apparently after the Holy Envoy discovered her true identity, he replaced it with the most secure shackles, which could trap almost all witches except extraordinary ones.

If you want to leave with Speer, you must first remove this thing, otherwise you will not be able to pull her into the foggy state.

"Let's go to the first cell," Nightingale decided. "You come with me."

Enduring the stinging pain in her legs, she returned to the fallen guard again, took the key, and opened the cell door.

At this moment, a clear bell rang from the top of the tower, and the rushing bell echoed in the silent building, as if it was beating on her heart.

"This is an alarm from the church," Speer said with a change of color.

"They will come sooner or later," Nightingale said solemnly. "The only way to survive is to move faster than the enemy."

The alarm that sounded at this time actually helped her in a sense. When the believers stationed in the basement heard the bell, they all gathered at the only exit of the prison. This undoubtedly gave Nightingale the opportunity to catch them all.

She descended from the fog, pointed at these people and pulled the trigger. Several bullets penetrated the body after hitting the first target, and then penetrated directly into the body of the second person, splashing a large pool of blood. The Stone of Divine Punishment they wore was the most eye-catching target in the black and white world. Facing the elusive Nightingale, these people were armed with long swords and shields, but they didn't know where to strike. After the two rounds of shooting, there was no longer a living guard in the prison.

But she knew that this was only the lowest-level believer in the church, and soon the heavily armed Judgment Army would arrive here. If there was no way to remove the Stone of Retribution by then, it would be difficult to escape.

"Come here quickly!" She quickly found the locking device, which was an iron device standing on the wall. Two rusty calipers stretched forward. At first glance, it looked like a terrifying torture instrument.

Speer put his neck against the caliper, Nightingale pulled the iron bolt, and then cranked the handle. Under the influence of the belt, the calipers spread apart to both sides, opening a gap in the Lock of Divine Punishment.

At the same time, the sound of the Judgment Army's armor shaking also appeared at the dungeon door.

"There they are!" someone shouted.

"Aim and shoot!"

"Let's go!" Nightingale pulled Speer up and escaped into the fog, but a bunch of lightless black holes shot straight at her, tearing the fog into pieces in an instant.

The crossbow arrow actually carries the Stone of Divine Punishment! Nightingale felt cold sweat on her forehead. After leaving the cover, the two figures were completely exposed to the Judgment Warriors. It must be said that the training these people received was very different from ordinary believers. In the first round of shooting, they only fired the crossbow arrows roughly. In the direction of the passage, both front and rear, left and right, so that the magic-forbidden effect of the sacred stone can block the road, and only half of the people participated in the first attack.

The other half were waiting for the moment when the witch appeared.

With a clear target in mind, the second wave of shooting arrived in an instant.

Hearing the hum of loose machine strings behind her, Nightingale pulled the Marquise in front of her and shouted at the same time, "Lower your head!"

A heartbreaking sting suddenly came from her back. She didn't know how many arrows she had been hit by. The pain spread like a flame, but she didn't stop for a moment.

Walking around the corner of the cell, Nightingale felt a salty smell coming out of her mouth. It was probably because of the pain she had just bit her lip, "Are you okay?"

"I...I'm fine," the Marquis said in a daze, "You, you just blocked the crossbow bolt for me?"

"If you hit me, you'll be dead, but if you hit me, nothing will happen." Nightingale reached out and touched her back. Sure enough, there was no arrow that penetrated Soraya's windproof suit. Although her back felt like it was on fire, as long as it didn't If it penetrates the body, it will only be a bruise at most. More importantly, it will not allow the powder of the divine stone to penetrate into the body.

The Judgment Warriors hurriedly chased this way. They probably didn't expect that the two of them could block the second wave of crossbows without shields. The stoppage of shooting just now caused the two sides to distance themselves.

Freed from the restraints of the God's Stone of Retribution, Nightingale grabbed Speer, unfolded the mist, and rushed straight up along the ever-changing lines, passing through the floor and soil to the outside of the tower, and then took out a weapon from her pocket. Use a bamboo tube to pull down the fuse.

Dazzling red light burst out from the bamboo tube, straight into the sky, and then exploded into a circle of dense light spots, as if there were countless more stars in the sky.

She remembered that when His Highness handed this to her, he still talked about a cloud-penetrating arrow, and thousands of troops would come to meet him. 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 next to the tower with great strength. Her burly body directly crushed the wall, and the air flow from her wings blew away the surrounding fog.

"What...what is this?" Speer Passi couldn't help but widen his eyes.

"My companion," Nightingale asked Lightning to help fix the Marquise on Maisie. She used her last strength to climb up her back and patted her rough body, "Take off."

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" Maisie let out a terrifying roar at the chasing army of judges, then waved her wings and soared into the air, carrying the two of them up quickly and quickly disappeared into the night sky.
