Bud ran to the teleportation gate, switching his ghoul form to shadow form to evade the royal guards' attacks. When he reached the gate, Bud swung a fist at the stone with the teleportation symbol, cracking it.
The crack spread all over the runic symbol. The light from the inscription dimmed and the teleportation gate was off. Now the fight against the royal guards was in an enclosed space. This was the best opportunity for Dave to fight against the puppet king without the interference of the royal guards stationed outside the temple.
Tiny had ejected all the undead from inside it. Dave's regiment positioned themselves in a battle formation. Melee units at the front, rangers, and casters at the back. Dunlords carrying his undead captains, and six undead manticores materialized all over the domed hall.
"Crush them!" Dave shouted.
