The knight in the abyss

Chapter 391 Terrible Prospects
"I have a way!"

Another voice sounded from the crowd, and Lancelot turned his head to find a female elf in robes, holding a heavy book with a bark cover in her hand, who seemed to be a spellcaster.

"Dear Great Elder, it is a great honor to meet you. I am Liya Gemflower, and I studied under your colleague Elder Dibooni. I was just an apprentice when you... sacrificed." The elf mage looked quite Excitedly, she bowed deeply to the old elf. When she straightened up, she realized that all the eyes of the audience were on her, and she couldn't help stammering, "I...I have..."

"Don't be nervous, kid." The old elf Quirion said calmly, "Is there anything you can do to help us?"

"Teleportation circle." The female elf swallowed, and spread out her spell book, "I have prepared a five-ring spell - teleportation circle. The original plan was to evacuate with my companions after completing the task. But I don't know how long I have been asleep, and whether Pascole's rune combination has changed..."

"What kind of spell is this?" Lancelow asked Karalin in a low voice. Although the latter only had the spellcasting ability of the third ring, his knowledge about magic was actually very profound.

"This spell is similar to the gate of another world. It can establish a teleportation array that connects two places. During the effective period of the spell, any creature that enters the teleportation array will be teleported away." Kara Lin quickly explained, "And the alien world of the nine rings Compared with the gate, this spell has many limitations: First, it requires that the destination of the teleportation already has a ready-made teleportation circle, and the caster must know the rune combination of the destination magic circle, otherwise the teleportation will not take effect..."

"I know Pascole's latest rune order." Axian, who was standing beside the two, said, "Friends, I am the current general of the Elven Guard, and I know the combination of teleportation runes in all major locations in Andrinna , Pascoller's is..."

"Another limitation is that this spell takes effect for a very short time, it only lasts about 6 seconds, but if we prepare in advance, the two hundred of us may barely make it in time..." While the elf prince was speaking, , the scholar continued to introduce to Lancelow. "But the most important difference is that this spell cannot be teleported across planes. And since the abyss lord usually applies some ritual defensive magic to the layers he controls, the cross-plane teleportation in the abyss must reach the strength of cross-planes , otherwise the probability of failure will be very high.”

"Is it so difficult?" Lancelot raised an eyebrow, "The talisman that Tijana gave..."

"That's Tijana." Kara Lin rolled her eyes, "Don't think she's just an ordinary demon lord on the Plain of Thousands of Abysses. We scholars of the Dark Order are interested in her for no reason. With her demonstrated strength and past achievements, many people believe that she is expected to become the next abyss lord."

"How dare I." Lancelot curled his lips, but he began to think about other things in his heart.To Karaline, the title of Lord of Blight is not enough for Moglondar...

He shook his head, telling himself that now was not the time to be distracted.After Aksian finished speaking, several other spellcasters also came over to discuss, and it sounded like they planned to take the risk of teleporting directly.

"I know a road leading to the throne room of this castle. There is a portal there, and the other end should be the peak of Mother Mountain." Lancelot said quickly, "I just took that road, and the road is almost There are no enemies. There are some glamor guards in the throne room..."

"The Miba will not be our opponent." A Huiyun angel said confidently, "Great! Let's go now!"

"But can we really turn the tide of the battle when we go back? The demons have three full legions..."

A frustrated voice suddenly sounded, like a basin of cold water was poured on the heads of the excited crowd.Lancelot turned his head and found that the speaker had a very special appearance - he had the appearance of an elf, but his figure was even smaller. The clothes all over his body were blue and white, exuding a cold breath, as if covered by ice and snow.

Although Lancelow had never seen this person before, he felt a sense of familiarity.He thought about it for a while, and realized that the source of the déjà vu was the goblin Tunthorn he had seen in Melanton Bur.At that time, the goblin general's whole body was covered in fiery red, like a scorching summer day.

"How many people are there in a full demon army?" Lancelow asked Karalin again. The latter's research direction is the abyss and demons, so he should be quite clear about these issues.

"Usually, a demon army has a head of the army and three lieutenants under his command, and each lieutenant leads a squadron; a squadron has at most thirteen squads, and each squad has at most thirteen Demon soldiers." Kara Lin happily answered for Lancelot, "But depending on the team members, the combat effectiveness may vary greatly. A team composed entirely of cowards and original demons will only consume the enemy's ammunition and physical strength Cannon fodder, and a team composed entirely of Berserkers is definitely the elite of the elite, playing a sharp knife-like role on the battlefield..."

"That is to say, the size of a fully formed demon army will exceed two thousand." Lancelow's expression was a little ugly.With his military quality, it is not difficult to see that Pascole's defenders will not exceed five hundred, which is less than one-tenth of the enemy's.

"General Mingyan, how many troops does Androlina have now?" Someone in the crowd asked Aksian, his eyes full of hope.

"Pascole's garrison consisted of fifty human knights, three hundred spearmen, and one hundred elf archers. In Eddington's Gift, which was half a day's journey away, there were a reserve army of three hundred elves and elves. Dumber has 500 more."

"Where are the guards in the Bodibinjian Forest?" a Huiyun angel asked, "Is it still guarded as a holy place?"

"Less than a hundred Hongyan love assassins." Axiian's expression was very serious, "What's worse, we didn't know that the enemy was going to attack so soon, and we were not sure from which direction they would attack. Even if Pascole's defenders immediately ask for help from the rear now, it will be difficult for them to hold on until the reinforcements arrive. But even if the defenders of the entire Androlina arrive, I'm afraid..."

The room fell into oppressive silence, all gasping for breath at the dire prospect.

"I have a question." In the silence, Lancelot said, "How did the prince Filinel mentioned just now come to Andrinna? How did you come here in the first place? Outsiders are forbidden to enter. What's in the Bodibingian forest...?"
