Chapter 1416: 1388 Escape route!
Chapter 1416 1388. Escape route!
If necessary, with Lan En's battlefield psychological control ability, he can use some actions and arrangements to make the people in the tower hall collapse under the pressure.
But now, he didn't need to go to such trouble.
The door was only hit twice. The first tremor caused most of the connection between the door and the wall to crack.
On the stone wall, the walls connecting the door shafts were squeezed to the point where large amounts of lime collapsed.
After the second blow, the entire door was knocked straight from the wall and fell down!
"bump!"
The solid wood and iron-clad door panels are so heavy and thick that the sound of hitting the ground can break a person's bones!
An unusually tall figure wearing a hood and cloak walked in from outside, throwing away a wooden pillar that was about the same thickness as Lan En himself.
Just an ordinary person carrying a wooden pillar about the same size as himself, this image is already very wild and impactful.
Not to mention Lan En's size, just walking in, it was like there was a sense of oppression pressing on everyone's heart.
The wooden pillars removed from the tower were thrown aside with a 'bang'.
Lan En shook his hand.
In fact, if he smashed this door directly with his fist, he would be able to finish it in one go.
The hard fist bones and armor can even punch a hole in a solid wood iron-clad door, and the door bolt will be broken by you.
But this isn't a 'bandit invasion'.
Where did the bandits get such heavy and hard fists?
So Lan En found a pillar to think about it.
Just like before, he must leave at least 'traces that a normal person can imagine'.
And just after Lan En entered, everyone in the hall was momentarily stunned.
"For the eternal fire! For the burning of the unclean world!"
Suddenly, the regiment leader, who was slightly funny because he was wearing pajamas under his armor, now shouted loudly!
Pious and fearless, even facing the giant stepping out of the shaken lime!
"Advance! Knights! Attack! In the name of glory!"
His gesture of drawing out his sword inspired many people.
Although most of the servants and attendants were still running away, there were still three or five knights who regained their strength and charged towards the giant who broke through the door.
Lan En tilted his head and looked at the people in the only remaining hall on the upper floor of the tower.
The number of members of the Knights of the White Rose has rapidly expanded due to the rule of paying and receiving in recent years.
But even if their wallets are full after receiving the money, their ability to undertake is still there.
It's barely okay for a knighthood to recruit a thousand people. If you want to recruit more than two thousand people or more, what do you want to do?
Can the vassals and lords of Temeria be unable to suppress you?
The Holy Council didn't agree either. If you join the Knights, you have to register with them.
The knight's noble status, family crest, and noble records all need to be communicated to various countries.
These exchanges eventually formed 'heraldry', a doctrine that specializes in the study of noble genealogy and family lines.
Therefore, the five hundred people in Gaoqiu Castle are indeed the majority of the armed forces of the Knights of the White Rose.
Normally speaking, these five hundred people alone are more powerful than some small regular knights.
For example, the Ember Knights only have a size of sixty people.
The remaining knights will also have local offices of the order placed next to important cities and nobles as nodes for communication.
For example, Novigrad and Vizima, the Knights of the White Rose must maintain contact with the Church of Eternal Fire, and also maintain communication with various powerful figures in the capital of Temeria.
There are offices in Tritog, the capital of Redania.
So in the end, there were actually about two hundred armed knights left in the castle where the knights were stationed.
But a mere two hundred people were still in the tower building where they could not gather.
Facing Lan En can only be said to be too weak.
Indeed, as Rudolph thought, this group of people was all that was left.
After entering the door, Lan En looked at the chaotic crowd.
His eyes under his hood glanced quickly, assessing the situation in just a split second.
Most of the rest are servants and handymen, just like the previous conscripts, and he has no intention of involving these people.
It's just that he doesn't involve others, but someone wants to stop him.
"Evil people! For the glory of the eternal fire! Stop!"
Three or five young voices, stepping on the armor and making a clanking sound, stood in front of Lan En with a little trembling.
Lan En tilted his head and looked down at the knight who was charging towards him. He didn't know where he took the warhammer from, and he just flicked his wrist slightly.
The heavy hammer head hit the cutting blade from the side faster and more flexibly than the light sword blade.
A relatively good half-hand sword was directly bent from the side, and the person holding the sword did not react.
Lan En shook his wrist, and the hand that was still holding the handle of the war hammer hit his helmet with his fist.
With a 'dang', the momentum he had just lost suddenly disappeared. He staggered up and stepped back uncontrollably. He was about to fall and sit on the ground.
Lan En followed his retreating steps and punched him with a bang.
For Lan En, this force is probably a little weaker than a brain-destroying one.
But the knight had fainted directly.
"Knight, glory, blah blah blah."
The witcher muttered as he knocked the opponent unconscious with two punches and frightened the remaining knights into confusion.
"I don't really hate that statement, but gentlemen, why don't you turn around and take a look?"
The young knights under these helmets turned their heads.
Then they saw their impassioned Captain Rudolf, together with the Eternal Fire Preachers, and the veteran knights of the Knights who had gathered around them just now and didn't know what to say.
Several people were running to a higher level with their heads covered. The faces of the young knights that were flushed due to the surge of adrenaline and the bulging veins subsided due to this.
They were stunned, and some of the sword hilts they held tightly in their gauntlets fell off and fell to the ground.
There was a crisp sound between the steel and the ground.
The servants were in a mess, coming and going like headless flies.
Lan En stood there, tilting his head and looking down at the young knights.
In fact, speaking of it, they are about the same age as Lan En, but it is not age that determines a person's maturity, but experience and knowledge.
"Have you just joined the Knights?"
Lan En asked in a funny tone.
He said he was asking, but actually he already had the answer.
The young knights pressed their hands on their helmets, as if they couldn't accept it, and they seemed completely stunned.
Lan En walked directly between them.
"When you should go home, go home. Do you really think that the eternal fire protects you and drives you to kill heretics, wizards, and inhuman races?"
"Bless me, why didn't it burn me?"
Passing by the young knight who was knocked unconscious by him, Lan En poked the other man's body with his toe: "This will also take away the knights who can enter by paying money."
"A bunch of fools really think they are religious role models carrying out God's will?"
Lan En ignored these young knights.
He neither set fire nor threw [Devil Dust] alchemical bombs on a large scale, so there was no danger to his life.
Even for those stairs that he had demolished, these young knights only had to take off their armor to reduce their weight, and then slowly find something to build a ladder for their feet, and then they went down.
The most dangerous thing in this tower is always Lan En.
Leaving the chaotic hall behind, Lan continued walking up.
He had seen it before entering the tower. The main tower was actually an isolated tower. There was no mid-air corridor as a link to other towers in the castle. In addition to flying out, he could only take the stairs.
So now he is a little curious about the mentality of this group of people running up.
But as soon as he walked a few steps up, Lan En understood immediately.
Looking left and right, the magic-blocking gold that should have been scattered throughout the castle has completely lost its traces on the top floors!
And under the hood and cloak, the silver roaring bear head pendant also began to tremble!
"Fuck you Eternal Fire and White Rose!"
Lan En suddenly cursed secretly, and then immediately turned into a huge and ferocious afterimage and rushed upward!
"Shouting 'evil witchcraft', open a portal at home, right!!"
Sure enough, there are not many lunatics anywhere who have religion in their brains! Even in a cult den!
The most common thing is to say one thing but do another!
Now that they are blocked in a high tower, it can be debated whether the portal is evil or not!
"Expedient measure!" In the secret room of the group leader, the missionary of Eternal Fire gasped for air and said in a deep voice as he looked at the portal that gradually opened in mid-air.
"We are servants spreading the glory of eternal fire. We have no right to seek death! All of this is the arrangement of the divine will!"
As he spoke, he took off his fiery red felt hat, revealing his bald and shiny head.
He hugged the religious scriptures to his chest and chanted them devoutly.
"Yeah, it's a stopgap measure."
Rudolf said in agreement, sweat dripping from his forehead, but his hands kept sweeping away the layer of dust that had been used as a cover on the ground.
As the teleportation positioning array on the ground became clearer and clearer, the teleportation gate that was originally only the size of a basketball began to expand steadily in mid-air.
Several veteran knights of the White Rose Knights also praised the leader and missionaries for their flexibility, and even called this a 'great tolerance'.
However, in this knightly order that discriminates against non-human groups, among the last group of people to escape, there is a dwarf who is watching the funny show performed by a group of knights with cold eyes.
It seems that he is still respected to a certain extent.
The portal expanded steadily, and soon it was large enough to fit a dwarf inside.
The dwarf sighed, and although he rolled his eyes at these knights, he still stepped forward, wanting to be the first to pass through the portal.
But as the portal steadily expanded, a heavy and ferocious footsteps also approached from downstairs with extraordinary speed!
'Dong dong dong' There were only three footsteps, but the location of the heavy and explosive footsteps was audibly closer with each step!
Even ordinary people can hear the approach!
The sound of footsteps is a war drum urging death!
The nearly bald missionary's eyes turned red under the urging of the war drums. He grabbed the dwarf who was about to walk in, and swooped into the portal, which could not fit even a single person!
The flying action greatly reduced the standard of escape and inspired the knights.
Suddenly one by one the knights rushed in, and the dwarf who was dragged back did not have time to get up.
"bump!"
There was an explosion, and in the hidden room on the mezzanine hidden by the agency behind the stone wall, a fist suddenly smashed in from outside the wall!
Most of the stacked stone bricks on the entire narrow wall collapsed with one punch!
Lan En's upper body poked in like a monster.
He looked speechlessly at the portal that was still in mid-air, and at the unknown dwarf lying on the ground as if he had seen a ghost, crawling back on his hands and feet.
The witcher sighed.
"I originally wanted you to die quickly."
He looked at the portal in mid-air, not as if he was looking at the route where a group of enemies had successfully escaped.
Instead, it was like looking at an execution platform that was too cruel to bear to look at.
On the demon hunter's left hand, a seal has been pinched and released.
[Yaden Seal]!
"You are asking for your own death now."
