"Since that's the case, let's leave first!" Star said, leading her own Adventurer Party out, as she also wanted to take this opportunity to properly treat the injured members.

"Let's see how the others are doing!" Auben followed suit, not being moved by Chrom's actions. In fact, he seemed to be looking around with different intentions since he entered.

However, a very important point was that they had not found the teleportation array to leave yet. If they were to anger Chrom now and end up unable to leave this place, it would not be worth it. So he also chose to leave.

"Bexia, let's go out too!" Lulumon grabbed Bexia's sleeve and said.

"Oh... alright!" Bexia frowned and withdrew his gaze, looking at the elf script on the stone coffin. Although he couldn't recognize the whole script, there were some words that caught his attention. It seemed that the corpse was not named Hera, but a elf named Elin.

But Bexia's thoughts were interrupted by Lulumon's pulling, and combined with the fact that he could only recognize half of the script, he didn't pay much attention. It was possible that this was indeed Chrom's lover, Hes, and the name Elin might be someone related to Hera.

Walking out of this relatively isolated cave, the arranged stone coffins outside made it seem very eerie. The others were taking care of the wounded, while Bexia sat on the damp ground and couldn't help but think back to what happened in the cave. He glanced around and noticed something strange, as if all the coffins were arranged around this place, just like the subjects surrounding a king.

"Hey! Do you guys know the name Elin? It's from the elf tribe, right?" Bexia suddenly looked at the others and asked.

"Elin?! Elf tribe?!" Auben frowned.

"I do know an Elin from the elf tribe. Legend has it that she was the fourth queen of the elf tribe, the supreme being among the elves!" Star calmly spoke, unaware that when she just spoke, Auben's expression had subtly changed. However, he quickly hid it.

"What happened to this Queen Elin?" Bexia continued to ask.

"It is said that she died in battle against the demons, but there are rumors that this elf queen is one of the rare life spirits of the elf tribe. She possesses the power of resurrection, so death is only temporary for her. She might reappear after resurrection!"

"I see..." Bexia felt like he had caught onto something. Just as he was about to furrow his brow, the entire cave suddenly shook, and a dazzling light burst out from behind them in the cave, accompanied by a wild and arrogant smile.

"Hahaha! This is the supreme power! It's too strong!" Chrom's arrogant smile brought everyone back to their senses, and in an instant, they understood everything that happened before and after.

"Bexia... Mr. Chrom's contract with me disappeared?"

"Screw this! This guy is a fraud." Bexia cursed. Everyone had been deceived by Chrom. He wasn't here to find his lover at all, but to steal something.

"Bzzz!"

The tremors hadn't ended yet when the ground trembled again, and Bexia and the others felt a powerful surge of magic flowing underground, sweeping through the entire sixth floor space. Countless stone statues that resembled knights began to flicker with a faint glow.

"Crack..."

"Crack..."

"............"

The sound of metal collision rang out, shaking off the dirt and rocks on the bodies of the knight statues, revealing their metallic structure. At the same time, different weapons were grasped in their hands, and hoarse voices came from the empty hollows of their black armors:

"Blasphemers! Kill!!"

"Bam!" Suddenly, a violent explosion sounded from behind, and everyone hurriedly dodged the flying rocks. The tall stalagmites were shattered, breaking through the originally separate cave. Two tall golden knights were in battle with Crom. As for the beautiful elf lying in the sarcophagus, she was casually thrown to the ground. The sarcophagus itself had already turned into a pile of rubble.

It is worth noting that in Crom's hand at this moment was a scepter. The originally transparent and ethereal figure now appeared no different from an ordinary person. It was clear that the effect was from the scepter.

"Blasphemer, die!" The two golden knights wielded their magic light blades, and with every movement, a series of afterimages followed. The powerful wind element affected them.

"Just two puppets, let me show you how I take them down." Crom laughed out loud. He waved the scepter in his hand, and the pale golden gem on top emitted a dazzling light. Under the impact, the two powerful knight puppets were blocked.

"Blasphemers, kill!" At this moment, the other knight puppets from the outside charged towards them. Seeing this, Crom's expression finally changed slightly. If thousands of knights were to gather together, they could activate the array left behind here, especially under the leadership of the two golden knights, the power would be even stronger.

"Human, you are on the same ship with me now. Hold off the puppets outside for me. I will help you after I deal with these two."

It was simply a joke to think that they could hold off so many puppet knights outside.

Crom didn't care about that at all. After all, he didn't have the intention to withstand so many knights. At least he only needed to escape from here. And he knew how to do it. As long as he temporarily got away from these two troublesome things, he would be free as a bird once he was out of here.

"Even if you don't believe me now, you will have to eventually. After all, these puppets won't spare you either." Crom said, good or bad, at least he said something. Others seemed to think the same way, but looking at the huge army of knights, their scalps felt numb. Each one of them was a high-level puppet.

"Don't listen to him, the first target of these puppets is definitely him. Let's run in different directions, the farther away from here, the better." Oben shouted.

"Why don't you try running?!" Crom sneered in response. The surrounding area was already surrounded by puppet knights, and there was no way to escape.

"What should we do?" Crom's words were indeed correct. It was something that could be distinguished at a glance. The puppet knights that were getting closer made the people present start sweating. It was the fear and shadow of death.

"Lulumon, don't be afraid. Remember to follow me later, okay?" Bexia whispered. Lulumon's Thousand-Change Robe was more than enough to protect them.

"Okay!" Lulumon was also scared, clinging to Bexia's waist and hiding behind him.

"... Bexia, big brother!" Lulumon quietly glanced ahead and spoke softly.

"What's wrong?"

"That woman seems to be alive. I can't sense any aura of death from her. Shall we go take a look?"

"Huh?!" Bexia was taken aback by Lulumon's words, he was extremely surprised. Not dead?
