Working Prophet

That farm is not difficult to find, because people in the city will deliberately avoid that place when they leave the city.

After briefly washing up, Ilea came there with Li Yu.

However, there was a group of guards stationed outside the farm, guarding the people inside to prevent them from running out, and not allowing outsiders to enter.

The leading captain was named Sora. He spotted the female lord and his party and came up to them.

"You said you were..."

"Ilea, the daughter of Blood-Eyed Russ, a dragon-slaying knight, and the head of the Arias family," the female lord replied.

"Dragon Slaying Knight Ilea, I have heard of your name." Sora said, "I have no doubts about your bravery, but I am afraid that you will be powerless against what you are going to face this time."

"It doesn't matter, Prophet Merlin is here too." Ilea pointed to Li Yu aside.

"Prophet?" Sola looked suspiciously up and down at the foreigner in black clothes in front of him.

"I am Mei Lin, the prophet of Shuangxiu Sect," Li Yu said. "I want to go in and take a look. If it is really the curse I know, I may be able to lift the curse for some of them."

"This is impossible!" Sola said flatly, "Priest Herbert has already seen those people and is sure that they are all hopeless."

"This may be the case for him and the gods behind him, but it is not the case for me and my gods." Li Yu said.

"You'd better be careful what you say, foreigner." Sola warned, "People in this land believe in Julius, the god of the earth and grain, and they are blessed by him. You and you are not welcome here. The strange god behind the scenes!”

After saying that, he looked at the female lord again, "Sir Ilea, you have a responsibility. I can't let you go any further."

Although there are not many people responsible for guarding the manor, their weapons, equipment and skills are not as good as those of the Arias family and the Black Dog Guards.

But after all, this is someone else's territory, and it's not good for a female lord to just lead people into it.

She did not embarrass the conscientious guard captain and said to Li Yu, "Let's go directly to the lord here."

Li Yu nodded, "That's fine."

After returning to the hotel, Ilea changed her clothes, asked someone to fly the rabbit flag of the Arias family, and then rushed straight to the city lord's palace.

There the two met the lord who ruled the Cornucopia - Greymane Wilder of the Singleton family.

The lord was a little short in stature, but his appearance was extremely majestic. He had a pair of warts under his eyes, which made his eyes look extraordinarily large, making it look like he was staring at everyone.

"Are you really that dragon-slaying knight Ilea?!" Wilder said one word at a time, "Why don't you look as powerful as the rumors say?"

Before the female lord could reply, his eyes had already moved to Li Yu on the other side.

"What about you, who are you? Why are you wearing such strange clothes?"

Next to him, an old man with a skinny face, dressed in brown clothes and with wheat ears embroidered on his chest, said something in his ear.

"Double holiday church? What kind of church is that? I remember that the nobles in the Western Region don't all believe in Pisiya, the goddess of the silver moon?" Wilder frowned.

"I converted to Saturday half a year ago, Sir Wilder."

"Call me Graymane, so you've betrayed your family's centuries-old faith?"

"Because I have found a god more worthy of following."

"On Saturday, Julius is the more worthy god to believe in," Wilder snorted contemptuously.

"Since we believe in it, we have had more and more good harvests, right, Priest Helbert."

"That's right, sir." The old man named Herbert bowed.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this kind of thing. Since you have come to the Corner of Plenty, I need to treat you well according to the etiquette among nobles. I have already asked people to prepare a luncheon, so that you can see the richness of my territory with your own eyes. "

"Wilder, oh no... Lord Greymane, we are actually here to ask for something." Miss Rabbit had to interrupt Wilder's soliloquy.

"What's going on?" The latter huffed a few times and spat a mouthful of thick phlegm at his feet.

"We would like to visit one of your farms."

"Farm?" Wilder was a little confused. "The winter wheat has been harvested. You can't see it now..."

"The farm where you imprisoned the Cursed."

After Ilea finished saying this, the atmosphere in the hall was suddenly suffocated, and then she saw Wilde's face flushed red in the chief seat, like a piece of pig liver.

The lord of the Cape of Plenty roared, "I treat you as guests, let's see how you repay me! There is no manners, barbaric primitive, that's what they say about those barbarians in the western region, they are absolutely right!!!"

Hurlbut on the side patted Wilder's back to help the city lord calm down, and at the same time turned to Ilea and Li Yu.

"Sir Wilder has already lost two sons because of that terrible curse, and sent his granddaughter there with his own hands just two days ago. You shouldn't bring this up in front of him. "

"Donia, my poor granddaughter!" Gray Mane howled, and then started to cry loudly.

It's hard to imagine that a nobleman, and also the lord of the city, would burst into tears in front of the guests. Seeing Huimane crying so sadly, the female lord's anger at being offended by his rude behavior before was relieved a lot.

He spoke again, "Don't worry, we are here to help you."

"It's just you who help me? You strangers have no idea what's going on in this land."

"I have seen similar curses before." Li Yu said.

"It's impossible," Herbert shook his head. "This is Julius' test for us. If you don't want to participate in the next luncheon, then you should leave here immediately."

"You should at least let us try. The Prophet Merlin is very good at dispelling curses," Ilea shouted at Wilder, "he can even bring people back to life."

"That's just a trick of foreigners. No one can bring the dead back to life except God." Hurlbut said.

"Let this poor man have a rest, even if it's only a moment of tranquility, don't use those sweet words to give him illusory hope, and then take that hope away, he can no longer bear such a blow."

"Do you really want to give up at this time?" Ilea didn't leave, but took another step forward, "Think about Donia, think about other people in this city, you still have a chance Save them."

"It's just nonsense ramblings of heretics..."

"That's enough!" Hui Mane yelled, interrupting everyone, and then he looked at Li Yu.

"You are very good at rhetoric. I guess this is why the little girl from the Arias family was bewitched by you, but I am different. I am a mature and wise lord, and my faith is firm enough."

Li Yu didn't say anything, he just stretched out his hand, hooked his fingers, and let the wine glass in front of Wilder fly into his hand.
