Working Prophet
Chapter 450 Follow the light
In order to avoid unnecessary complications, Ilea and others left Lake City at dawn the next day and embarked on the journey to the Royal Capital again.
Albus had woken up last night, and then he seemed to be a different person. He no longer clamored about becoming a knight's squire. He became taciturn. He almost didn't give him food and water. None of them moved.
Ilea sent Ruby to take care of him for two days, but no matter how much Ruby tried to persuade him, Albus remained indifferent.
For this reason, the team stayed in a small village for half a day. Thomas went to find a herbalist nearby, checked Albus's body, cooked several bowls of herbal medicine and drank it, but there was still no improvement.
Since she had to rush to the royal capital, the female lord could not spare more time to treat Albus, so she planned to leave him in the village.
He found a kind-hearted family to adopt him, and left seven gold coins with the family.
Afterwards, the female lord went to say goodbye to Albus, and saw the young man with sunken eyes and a dull face in the long house full of mud and chicken manure.
Miss Rabbit took two steps closer and said, "We are leaving. You are not in good health to travel long distances now, so just stay here and recuperate.
"No matter what you want to do in the future, revenge, or become a knight's squire... you must first live. Because only alive can there be hope."
After the female lord finished speaking, Albus remained silent on the straw mat. He didn't stop any longer and turned around to walk out of the house.
But at this time, the space around her suddenly distorted.
If Albus hadn't been staring straight ahead, he might not have been able to catch the fleeting fluctuation.
It was as if there was an invisible position that fixed all the flying dust in the air there.
Then a figure dressed in black clothes appeared beside Ilea out of thin air.
And where he was standing, there was a hole in the roof.
A ray of sunlight shot in from the hole and fell on the side of the man's face, giving him a golden outline.
Albus was stunned for about half a second, then suddenly fell to his knees and cried out with a wow.
Li Yu just arrived and couldn't figure out the situation, so he asked Ilea who was beside him, "Who is he?"
"We picked up a child in Lake City. His parents were dead. The Malir family guards were chasing him, so I took him out of the city." The female lord said.
"Oh." Li Yu thought for a while, took out a Snickers bar from the [Traveler's Exclusive Type III Backpack], tore off the outer packaging, and handed it to Albus.
"You look a little hypoglycemic, let's eat a chocolate pad first."
It was obvious that the man spoke a foreign language that Albus had never heard of, but it was miraculous that Albus could clearly understand the meaning of the other person's words.
Although he doesn't know what hypoglycemia and chocolate are.
Albus reached out his hand subconsciously, took the dark, suspicious-looking stick, and put it into his mouth.
It was a strange taste that the boy had never tasted before. It was a little bit bitter and a little bit astringent, but it was more sweet, with a mellow aroma of nuts, and something soft and sticky that couldn't be explained.
After Li Yu gave away the Snickers bar, he left the longhouse with Ilea.
He didn't pay too much attention to the little boy in the room just now, but when the two walked a certain distance, Li Yu found that Albus was still staggering behind them.
"Why, do you have anything else to do?" Li Yu asked.
"I, I want to follow you." The young man knelt down on one knee, imitating the appearance of those knights in his memory.
After two days, this was the first time Albus spoke. Although his body was still shaking, his tone was firm.
"Do you know who I am?" Li Yu raised his eyebrows.
"You are Merlin, the Prophet Merlin of Shuangxiu Cult! The spokesperson of Saturday in the world."
"You should be a follower of Picia, now that you know who I am, do you still follow me?"
"Yes." Albus said without hesitation.
"Why?"
"Because of... the light."
"Light?" Li Yu was also a little surprised by the boy's answer.
"You have light on your body. I saw it. Last year, my father took me on a long journey to deliver a batch of pigs to Huisong Castle next door. We missed the village where we could sleep at night, so we could only sleep in the wild."
"Seeing that night was coming, my father planned to go to the nearby woods to collect some firewood to start a fire, and asked me to guard the pigs, but I was very scared, afraid that after he left me, I would get lost in the dark.
"But my father told me not to be afraid, just remember to follow the light when you get lost."
Albus paused, "That's why I want to follow you."
"Interesting answer."
Li Yu looked at the swaying boy and thought of the stray dog he saw in the green belt of the park not long ago.
Li Yu casually threw the unfinished half of the sausage to it, and then the little yellow dog followed him all the way to the outside of the office building, still reluctant to leave.
So Li Yu asked Zhang Yanlin to contact the property management company in the park and ask if anyone had lost a dog.
After getting a negative answer, Li Yu asked Zhang Yanlin to take the little dirt dog to the hospital, had a full set of examinations, prescribed medicine, bought pet supplies, and finally kept it in the office building.
"How is your health now?" Li Yu asked Albus, "We still have to go to the royal capital, so we can't delay you too long."
"There is nothing wrong with my body. As long as I have food and water, I will recover soon." Albus said.
"Okay then, you pack up and have something to eat, and then we'll leave." Li Yu said.
Although believer +1 is no longer very impressive to the current Shuangxiu sect, Li Yu has no reason to refuse.
About half an hour later, everyone set off from the small village again. After that, the team sped up a bit and left the Western Region in about half a month.
After leaving the Western Territory, Ilea and others breathed a sigh of relief. They were obviously very relaxed, because this meant that they had left the influence of the Blood Moon Society.
Although there are some Pisiya believers outside the Western Territory, the number is not that large, and the risk of encountering assassinations and ambushes in the future is also much smaller.
Everyone walked forward for another half day and came to a place called Cornucopia. Ilea decided to rest here for two days to give everyone a holiday.
Even when going out, believers on Saturday still need to abide by the church's precepts. Of course, if the time is really tight, you can write it down first, and then take a rest and compensatory rest in the future.
After finding an inn in town, Albus pestered Thomas to teach him horseback riding and swordsmanship, while Jude decided to find a tavern for a drink and see if he could find some. Fun.
