Elf Kingdom: Game of the World Tree
Chapter 1424 - 894: Is This a Rebellion?!
Time rewinds to a few minutes ago.
As the angry crowds rallied with the insurgents to begin the siege of Dorolia Castle Prison, within the dark and damp dungeons, the prisoners, who had been resting with their eyes closed, began to open them.
Listening to the faint sounds of artillery and shouting, watching the dust fall from above with the occasional tremor, they glanced at each other and saw some suspicion in each other’s eyes.
Soon, accompanied by the creaking sounds, the dungeon gate slowly opened, and the figure of the Dungeon Guard Captain appeared before the prisoners.
His expression was hurried, his gaze bright, faintly carrying a hint of excitement.
"The uprising has begun! Comrades! Our allies inside and outside the castle have risen! The castle gate has been taken! The Seventh Legion and mercenary corps are besieging Dorolia from the outside."
"Comrades! It’s our time. It’s time to leave this dark place, time to step into the light!"
The Dungeon Guard Captain spoke passionately.
And as the most prestigious presence among all the dungeon prisoners, ’Wolf Claw’ Charles stood up from the ground and asked confusedly:
"Wasn’t the message saying we had to wait two more days? Why did it start today?"
"I don’t know! Maybe something unexpected happened! However, it’s already underway! There are people everywhere outside! Our people! The siege of Dorolia has begun! Alright! Get ready everyone, I will open the dungeon for you now!"
The Dungeon Guard Captain said excitedly.
After hearing his words, the prisoners’ eyes brightened slightly, and they all stood up unconsciously.
They rubbed their fists, eager to try.
Soon after, the Guard Captain held the keys, unlocking cell doors one by one.
As he unlocked, he continued speaking:
"Quick! Now all the guards above are concentrated in the tower, the Legendary Mage Lord Daniel is also controlling the solidifying magic and can’t spare a hand, the castle is emptier than ever!"
"In the chaos, I’ve managed to get the key for the Magic Prohibition Chains, I’ll remove the Magic Prohibition Shackles for you now!"
The Guard Captain led the guards into the dungeon, opening the cells one by one and removing the Magic Prohibition Shackles that had unknown durations of confinement on the prisoners.
Feeling the resurgence of power within them, the prisoners’ spirits soared.
More than a thousand prisoners were held in the dungeon, almost every one possessed significant extraordinary power, with the vast majority being Silver Upper, and over a third being Golden Rank.
However, the most powerful among them included a few at the Golden Peak, including ’Wolf Claw’ Charles.
Though not true Legends, at their level, they no longer viewed ordinary Gold Professionals as anything noteworthy.
The Guard Captain released the prisoners one by one, and those freed joined in to assist in freeing more.
In less than fifteen minutes, all prisoners in the dungeon gained their freedom.
Regaining their freedom, their expressions were filled with excitement and enthusiasm.
However, as the leader of the dungeon prisoners, "Wolf Claw" Charles remained calm.
"Guard Captain, is there only Daniel left in the castle?"
He asked in a deep voice.
"Yes, Mr. Charles, the other two Legends from the church have left with the Pope for Mania, and Lord Daniel... well Daniel is controlling the [Dorolia Barrier] and can’t spare any attention!"
The Guard Captain replied.
Upon hearing this, the prisoners’ eyes slightly brightened.
The defensive strength within Dorolia Castle was exceedingly strong.
However, for the prisoners in the dungeon, this was not an impossible challenge.
Provided the presence of the castle’s three permanent Legends was not considered.
One Archbishop from the Eternal Church, one Judgement Knight from the Judgement Court, and one Legendary Mage loyal to the royal family.
These three Legends were the ultimate suppressive force for the entire prison.
Now, with the two church Legends gone and only the Legendary Mage preoccupied with controlling solidifying magic, it could be said... the timing was nearly perfect for the prisoners.
"Comrades! It’s time to leave this cold, damp place! Charge the castle, break the defensive magic, open the castle gates, welcome our allies!"
"Wolf Claw" Charles shouted.
"Open the gates, welcome our allies!"
The other prisoners also shouted excitedly. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞
After saying this, led by the dungeon guards, they kicked open the dungeon gates and charged out...
No one anticipated the sudden eruption of the dungeon prisoners.
In Dorolia Castle Prison, the dungeon was like a forgotten place, no one wanted to go there.
Hence, when the soldiers inside the castle saw prisoners suddenly rushing out from the dungeon, their expressions were very remarkable.
Fear, confusion, bewilderment... various complex emotions gathered on their faces.
They didn’t know how this group locked in the dungeon got out or united.
And the fury of being imprisoned for unknown years, at this moment, erupted in the hearts of the dungeon prisoners, as they began to rampage through the castle like lions released from their cages.
The chaos broke out almost immediately.
Hatred, hostility, dissatisfaction, rage... all kinds of emotions burned in the prisoners’ hearts, turning into infinite power, allowing them to unleash unprecedented combat strength at this moment.
The castle soldiers, still reeling from the shock of the siege, were instantly left dazed and confused.
