Working Prophet

Miss Rabbit thought about it for five days, but still couldn't come up with any good solution.

At most, the mercenaries and their own guards are mixed into a team, which can reduce some casualties, but if they do this, there will be problems in command and deployment.

Those mercenaries are not fools. They will definitely run away when the situation is bad, and they don't mind selling their companions in order to survive.

So Pablo would rather go deep into the swamp by himself than go with the mercenaries.

Ilea managed to calm down the hot-tempered knight temporarily without letting him die alone.

But the manpower required by Pablo, Ilea, was simply not available.

With the lessons learned from the previous team, there are very few guards who are willing to join the team this time, and most of them are old. Some of them even have bad legs and feet. Miss Rabbit suspects that the other party is simply going for the pension. .

Such a person must not be wanted. Ilea sent someone to find the dragon, not because she was afraid that the dragon would be hungry, so she sent someone to add food to it.

So the girl finally decided to follow the old rules and ask Li Yu when she had trouble.

"...In short, the current situation is like this." Miss Rabbit said, "I can't find any manpower here, how about your side, those lizardmen, um...are they willing to go deeper into that swamp? ?”

"The lizard people are very afraid of that dragon, but they always put the group first, and they are willing to sacrifice themselves if necessary." Li Yu paused.

"However, they have all joined the Shuangxiu religion now. My Lord values ​​the lives of every believer on Saturday. In order to save people, especially the two members of their tribe in the team, I can send them to venture into the swamp to search.

"But now that I have found evidence that the previous team has encountered an accident, I have no reason to let them risk their lives to go back and face the nightmare of the past."

"Is that so?" Miss Rabbit couldn't hide her disappointment, "But if the lizard people don't want to send more people, even if I have enough people on my side, without a guide, the team can hardly survive in the swamp, let alone Don't talk about finding that dragon."

"Who says there are no guides?"

"Um?"

"I heard that in two days you will execute the murderer who killed the Trinidad knight's family." Li Yu said suddenly.

"You want to intercede for them?" Ilea frowned, "The Trinidad knights have always been loyal to their family, but their family was brutally slaughtered by the lizardmen. I took a step back before and only let those lizardmen hand over Bring out the murderer.

"If I let go of these three people, it will chill the hearts of my vassals."

"I didn't ask you to let people go, I just suggested to let them play their remaining heat before they die." Li Yu said, "It just so happens that your second team needs a guide, and they can be guides, instead of letting them just be like this." It is better to let them die at the hand of the dragon than to lose their heads in vain and die under the executioner's ax."

"But what if they don't die?" the girl asked back.

"That means they found the dragon. This credit should make you rethink your sentence."

"So you're still pleading for them?"

Li Yu didn't deny it, "Looking at the results of the first team, looking for dragons is a matter of narrow escape, so let's just hand over their sins to fate to judge... As for the leader of the team, I can also recommend it to you." A choice.”

"Oh, who?"

"He is also in your dungeon, and his time is numbered."

"Wait, don't you want me to let Jude go too?" Miss Rabbit's face showed a strange look.

Before Li Yu could answer, she shook her head again and said, "No, let's forget about the lizard man. Jude must not let him go. He is the remnant of the Enriquez family. The reward offered more than 900 years ago is still valid today. His head was handed over to the Marquis of Cullen, and I have actually made a decision to attack him after executing the three lizardmen."

"Then can you find other people who are willing to lead a team to find that dragon?"

"Well... Pablo Cavalier said he could go."

"You and I both know that Pablo's real purpose is to seek revenge on the dragon. If you let him go, he will only lose his life in vain."

The girl was speechless, she knew that what Li Yu said was the truth.

But the question of Jude's identity is too sensitive. Compared with him, those members of the Wetting family are nothing.

Seeing the girl hesitated, Li Yu didn't urge her either.

…………

Two days later, guards came to the dungeon and took the three lizard men away.

Jude whistled when he saw this, and regardless of whether the lizard men could understand it, he said to them, "Are you going to say goodbye? I will miss you. You are all pretty good roommates, right, Black Beauty .”

After Jude said the last sentence, he looked at the loyal big black dog.

After being imprisoned for such a long time, although Ilea did not treat the man and the dog too badly in terms of food, the black beauty still seemed a little depressed, perhaps because she had not seen the sun for too long.

"Don't worry, I guess it will be our turn soon." Jude said as he reached out and stroked the big black dog's head.

As a result, as soon as he finished speaking, the two guards who had left before left and returned.

Opening his cell door, Jude said coldly from inside, "Come out!"

Jude's expression finally changed this time. Although he knew that he was dead from the moment his identity was revealed and he was caught. It was luck to live for two more months. However, when this moment really came, he I still feel a little caught off guard.

He forced a smile on his face and said, "Aren't we just going to execute those lizardmen today? I'm not on the same side as them."

"Stop talking nonsense, come out as soon as you are told." The guard said solemnly, "Don't force us to take action!"

Jude glanced at the hand crossbow in the opponent's hand, and then at the black beauty at his feet who was ready to attack, and finally gave up the idea of ​​resistance.

Even if he and Black Beauty could deal with the two people in front of them, they would not be able to escape from the castle.

Jude sighed, obediently left the cell where he was held, and murmured, "This story tells us that when we see other people being unlucky, it's best not to be too happy."

However, to Jude's expectation, he was not taken outside the castle for execution, but instead came to the hall on the second floor.

The three lizardmen who were taken away before were also there.

At the other end of the hall, the new head of the Arias family was sitting upright, and Li Yu was also there, just to her left.

Jude was keenly aware that things might have taken a turn for the better.

So he looked at Miss Rabbit who was looking up and said with a grin, "Long time no see, do you miss me?"

Miss Rabbit has been dealing with Jude for so long, and she knows that talking dirty is the guy's usual method of hiding his true thoughts and bargaining with others.

But this time the girl didn't intend to argue with him anymore, and said straightforwardly, "I have a deal I want to discuss with you. If you agree, I will tell you the contents of the deal. If you don't agree, I will ask the guards to take you to the execution."
