Working Prophet

Ivan escorted Tristan into the tunnel, but Tristan stopped before going too far down. He planned to stay near the tunnel entrance and always pay attention to the movements above.

Tristan's four guards were following behind the two, and behind them was Ivan's team. Tristan just felt that there seemed to be too many people following Ivan.

But he didn't think much about it. At the moment, his attention was on the two dragons. However, when he turned around, he saw a scene that shocked him inexplicably.

The people at the back of the team suddenly drew their weapons and stabbed the four Penlos family guards in front of them without hesitation.

The four guards did not expect to be attacked from behind, so they were unprepared and were stabbed to death by random swords almost instantly.

The hairs all over Tristan's body stood up. He took half a step back, put one hand on the hilt of the sword, and looked at Ivan aside.

"You, you betrayed me, where is your noble honor?!"

"Don't you think it's a bit ironic to say this from your mouth?" Ivan smiled.

"What benefits did Allister and the others promise you? I can offer double the price."

Tristan quickly calmed down after the initial shock. It was meaningless to pursue Ivan's defection now. The important thing was to save his own life first.

Ivan shook his head, "If you can't afford it, they are willing to let me succeed you as the master of Elk Valley."

"…………"

Tristan knew that he might not be able to survive today, so he looked directly into Ivan's eyes and said.

"You made the wrong bet. Queen Ilea and Prophet Merlin will not let you go."

"Not everyone is as afraid of that woman and the gods behind her as you are. The Vespasian family is the master of this continent."

Ivan said, "If you look for any kid of any age on the roadside, they all know this."

"That may have been the case in the past, but in the future..."

"The future is not something you need to worry about." Ivan interrupted Tristan and raised the sword in his hand.

"For the sake of past friendship, I will give you a happy one."

Hearing this, Tristan took a deep breath and drew his sword, "Then let your horse come over!"

…………

A moment later, Ivan emerged from the tunnel again. Compared with when he entered, he had one more thing in his hand.

It was a bloody head that belonged to the former Lord of Elk Valley.

Ivan threw the still steaming head in front of the guards guarding the city and said at the same time.

"Surrender or die, you can choose one."

The guards looked shocked after seeing the appearance of the head.

Some of Tristan's cronies were filled with jealousy and angrily scolded Ivan, "Traitor! You shameless traitor, you betrayed the trust the Duke placed in you.

"Everyone, please join me in killing him and avenge Lord Tristan!"

After being reminded by him, some people also drew their weapons and charged at Ivan.

But before they could rush to Ivan, a huge red dragon fell from the sky and blocked their way.

It swung its thick tail and swept towards the crowd. Those who were hit by its tail immediately flew up.

Many people's armors were deformed and dented by this blow, and several of the bones inside were broken. They could no longer stand up after falling to the ground.

And the remaining people stopped involuntarily.

Immediately afterwards, another slightly smaller green dragon also swooped down. It opened its bloody mouth and spit out blazing flames.

Wherever he passed, the world seemed to be on fire.

And behind them were hundreds of Wing Tribe people with wings on their backs. Those Wing Tribe warriors held bows and arrows and shot and killed the guards on the city wall wantonly.

The people below wanted to fight back, but it was difficult to shoot them in the air.

On the other side, Alistar led the elite warriors from the north to charge again. They encountered few obstacles along the way and soon arrived outside the Antler Gate.

Allister held a large shield, guarding against the sparse arrows on the city wall, while staring at the heavy city gate in front of him.

The next moment, he saw the city gate make a creaking sound, and then slowly opened to both sides.

There was a hint of ecstasy in Allister's eyes, and he immediately led his men to rush in. They successfully controlled the towers on both sides and repelled a wave of counterattacks from the opposite side.

As more and more troops poured into the city from behind, Allister knew that the city was already theirs.

He wiped the blood from his face and said excitedly to his attendant.

"Sanders, have you seen that even without Cornelia and without the protection of the goddess of life, I am still invincible!"

Sanders also said, "Your Majesty, your bravery is unparalleled. Conley and Claudio simply don't dare to charge into battle like you. They can only huddle back and watch the warriors in front fight the enemy."

Allister was satisfied with Sanders' praise for him, even though both Cornelia and Schroeder had warned him not to rush too far forward.

But as the commander-in-chief, he always fights on the front line, and the morale boost for the troops is also visible to the naked eye.

Among the three, Allister and his northern army are the most capable. If it weren't for the two giant dragons, he would have taken back Lionheart Castle by now.

Thinking of this, Allister's expression became a little complicated again when he looked at the two huge figures in the sky not far away.

But at least this time the two giant dragons were on their side, and Allister didn't need to worry about how to deal with them for the time being.

He withdrew his gaze and looked around again. Antler Gate, the first fortress in the Elk Valley, now belonged to them.

Allister can lead the army to rest here, build fortifications, and quietly wait for Ilea's arrival, if the latter still dares to come.

With this fortified city in hand, Allister felt that his chances of defeating Ilea had increased.

He couldn't wait to see what Ilea's expression would be like after she led the army to Elk Valley and found out that the place had changed owners.

But what Allister didn't know was that as early as the night the Antler Gate was lost, Ilea had already heard the news through the city's radio station.

But she didn't look as panicked as Allister imagined. The girl just touched her chin and said, "Oh, they started pretty quickly."

However, El and Gnaril beside her looked grief-stricken.

El still begged Miss Rabbit to avenge his father with red eyes.

Ilea didn't know if he was really as sad as he seemed on the surface, because after Tristan's death, El naturally became the head of the Penlos family and the master of the Elk Valley.

But this is good news for Ilea. Tristan has no bottom line. What he is best at is repeatedly jumping horizontally. His son seems to be at least a little more shameless than him.

Miss Rabbit patted El and Genalil on the shoulders and comforted, "Don't worry, I will definitely avenge your father's revenge for you, and I will also help you get Elk Valley back."

After hearing this, El immediately knelt down on one knee and said excitedly, "Your great benefactor, the Penlos family, will never be forgotten. I am willing to be your most loyal minister and expand your territory for you."
