Working Prophet

The farmer was thinking about the future, while his wife was sewing clothes for him, and the family was enjoying themselves.

Li Yu and Ilea didn't stay here for too long, because they heard that the prophet Merlin was coming, and everyone in the village came running after a while.

They also brought a lot of gifts, expressing their gratitude to Li Yu in this way, and when someone recognized Ilea's identity, the people also cheered for the female lord, praising her wisdom and kindness.

When she left the village, Miss Rabbit felt that she was walking a little more briskly.

After that, the two went to a nearby farm. Along the way, they could see houses under repair and newly cultivated fields.

The blacksmiths were sweating and banging on the forging bench, while the militiamen were practicing hard on the training ground.

According to the manager of the farm, it will be more lively if you come here on Saturdays and Sundays, and dances and banquets are often held.

In addition, he also showed Li Yu and Ilea the newly dug cellar, including the food stored in it, to ensure that people would have a place to hide in the event of a crisis.

Ilea emphatically inquired about the public security situation nearby.

Because there was a large influx of new residents in Green Field during this period, there were usually some criminal incidents.

However, the situation is much better than Miss Rabbit expected. Thanks to the rapid development of Green Field, people are being recruited everywhere.

Even foreigners who have nothing here can quickly find a job and support themselves. In addition, militias from all over the country have generally replaced new equipment and stepped up training.

The pair then encounter a referee who is investigating a carpenter who has been reported to have recently overworked two of his apprentices for taking on too much work.

Instead of bothering the parties, the young referee first visited the families that employed the carpenter and his apprentices to inquire about their working hours.

After collecting the information, he found a family in the next village and planned to hire the carpenter for a few days to see with his own eyes whether he violated the precepts.

Miss Rabbit is quite interested in this matter and wants to know more about it.

But at this moment she saw a group of cavalry galloping from a distance, bringing snowflakes with them.

The leader was clearly her guard captain Thomas.

"Miss Ilea," the guard captain shouted from a distance, "Oh no, something happened!"

The female lord's heart also sank, "Did something happen at Teacup Castle?"

"No, it's the Royal Capital." Thomas' tone was laced with a hint of anxiety, "Something happened in the Royal Capital!

"We just received urgent news from Lionheart Castle. The royal capital has fallen into the hands of those Wing Clan people!"

"What?" Ilea was stunned, "How is this possible? Hasn't the two sides been in a stalemate for more than two months? Why did the capital suddenly fall? Did those Yi people solve the supply problem through any means? Is there a big noble in the city who is betraying you?”

"It is true that some nobles have rebelled and are delivering information to the Wing tribesmen outside the city. It seems that some small lords have secretly sent a batch of arrows to those Wing tribesmen, but it is the dragon who really turns the tide of the war."

"Dragon? Why did another dragon appear?" Miss Rabbit was shocked.

As a dragon-slaying hero in the West, no one knows better than her how terrifying those monsters covered in scales, capable of breathing fire and flying can be.

Although the female lord had killed one before, the process was not easy. In the end, Li Yu even stepped in personally to kill the dragon.

"Not one, but three." Thomas said, "Redio saw them with his own eyes. According to him, the three dragons were stronger than the one we hunted before, and were almost the same size as the black dragon. Twice that, they are flying in from the south."

"South?" Ilea thought of something, "Elven Kingdom?"

"Yes. Those guys with long ears officially declared war on us just today. Their army has left the Evergreen Forest, set foot on the land of the empire, and fought with the local nobles."

The continuous bad news has made Miss Rabbit a little numb.

After a while, she came back to her senses and continued to ask, "Your Majesty, he..."

"The King's Landing Tower is completely in ruins. Lord Redio is making inquiries, but there is no news about His Majesty yet. He should still be...alive." Thomas finally used a questioning tone.

Obviously, he was not very optimistic that Gars could survive this disaster. Even though he was still alive, the Wing Tribe people had already captured Lionheart Castle, and it was only a matter of time before they caught Gars.

The female lord realized the seriousness of the problem and had no intention of continuing to wander around. She immediately followed Thomas and others back to the castle.

Miss Rabbit rummaged through the study for a long time before she found an empire map, and it seemed to be hundreds of years old.

But maps are rare these days, especially imperial maps. It’s good to have them. Now is not the time to be picky.

The female lord spread the map on the table.

Lionheart Castle was found on it first. Losing the royal capital would be a disaster for the empire.

What's even more terrible is that this is not the end, just the beginning of the disaster.

Miss Rabbit moved her gaze to Baihe City, which is about two days away from Lionheart Castle.

At this time, reinforcements from all over the country were concentrated there, and the number was almost approaching 100,000!

Such a force is undoubtedly very strong, but what they have to face this time is an opponent they have never seen before.

The former Royal Forest Guard Chief Du Lun was also in the room, and he said at this time, "If I were the commander-in-chief of those Wing Clan people, I would immediately send a giant dragon to attack White River City.

"As long as I defeat the 100,000 reinforcements in the city, no one in the empire will have the power to stop me."

The female lord was also very anxious. After hearing this, she said, "We must notify Baihe City immediately." She asked Li Yu, "Does Shuangxiujiao have a contact person there?"

Li Yu shook his head, "The number of radio stations is limited. White River City is relatively close to Lion Heart Castle, so I don't have any extra manpower. And even if I notify you now, it will be too late."

There are now a hundred thousand troops hoarded in Baihe City. This is certainly a powerful military force, but it is impossible for so many people to move so quickly together.

Even if they were willing to believe Shuangxiujiao's warning, they wouldn't be able to get far in a short while. In contrast, the three-headed dragon was surprisingly maneuverable.

Although there was a huge disparity in numbers between the two sides, the female lord was not optimistic about the supporting army and looked at Li Yu, "Is there really no way out?"

The prophet of Shuangxiujiao slowly shook his head.

Miss Rabbit was stunned, and then asked Du Lun, "If White River City is also lost...then where will those Wing Clan people go next?"

"They should capture the Red Plains first and wait for the elf army to attack. After that, they have many choices. They can go back and eat the New Land, or they can continue to push westward and capture the Elk Valley and the Golden Valley. "

Duren paused, "What I'm most worried about is the morale of the empire. With the fall of Lionheart Castle and another major defeat in White River City, some people may start to waver and reconsider their position.

"The number of the Wing Clan army is not large. They cannot occupy much land. If they want to rule this continent, they still need to rely on allies."
