Working Prophet

Chapter 178 Unexpected Visitor

Since the second dragon-hunting team was also wiped out, the fact that there are dragons in the swamp is no longer a secret in the green field.

Almost overnight, rumors spread throughout the territory of the Arias family, and panic began to spread.

Miss Rabbit didn't know if there was someone with a heart behind this, and she couldn't care less about it now. During this period of time, the girl was either running around for reinforcements, or comforting the people with a group of officials in the territory.

However, there are still some people who choose to escape from the green fields. Among those who escape are mainly self-cultivators, as well as some craftsmen and small producers. These people are very precious to every lord, especially those craftsmen. Basically, every village Can't live without it.

What made Ilea even more angry was that nearby lords took the opportunity to offer favorable conditions to attract refugees from the green fields to join.

When these guys asked them to send troops, they would find various excuses to delay them, but when it came to poaching the corners of the Arias family, each one was more energetic than the last.

In just one month, Luye had lost hundreds of civilians, and because the coalition forces had not arrived, more and more people chose to leave their homes for the sake of themselves and their families.

Ilea spent a lot of effort before, taking over the members of the Weiting family who were exiled to the west, and trying to resettle the patients who came to the green field for treatment, and finally filled up the population loss caused by the rampage of the lizard people. In the blink of an eye, all her efforts were in vain.

Not only that, the number of people in her territory continues to decrease.

Miss Rabbit could do nothing about it.

The monster that has disappeared for more than three thousand years has reappeared in the green field, and it can also fly in the air and spit terrifying flames from its mouth.

Just thinking about it is enough to frighten people, and ordinary people simply cannot muster the courage to fight against it.

The reason why these free people would be attached to a certain lord was that apart from needing land to rent and grow food, there was also a very important point, that is, they valued the protection that those lords could provide.

Now anyone with a clear mind can see that the Arias family has nothing to do with that dragon, so these people naturally don't want to stay and be buried with the Arias family.

The remaining serfs could not escape because they had sold themselves to the Arias family, but they all lived in fear.

They were afraid that the nobles would force them to fight the giant dragon. In short, the entire green field was now shrouded in fear and gloomy.

However, some people, after hearing the news, not only did not stay away from the green field, but rushed over here, the representatives of which were naturally Ferdinand and the three hundred soldiers he brought.

According to the young baron, he came to fulfill the oath made by the ancestors of the Bathory family and the Arias family to watch and help each other and advance together. The sacred covenant is broken.

In addition to Ferdinand, who came to help in times of need, there was also an uninvited guest who also appeared outside Teacup Castle.

"Do you need me to drive her away?" Manager Yago asked.

"What, drive her away? Of course not, Adele is my friend." Ilea said, "I will never drive her away from my territory."

"I can understand your friendship with Ms. Adele, but she has now been expelled from the Silver Moon Church, and her reputation is notorious. If it is known that you are close to her, it may affect your relationship with the Arias family. Reputation..." Yago reminded tactfully.

"I don't care!" Miss Rabbit sneered, "I don't care at all, I've already seen through it, the Arias family has the best reputation among the nobles in the western region, but it's not bad at all, whether it's me My grandfather and father, they are both very upright people...

"As for me, I know some people call me an idiot behind my back, but after becoming the head of the Arias family, I haven't done anything harmful. Who will come to our aid?”

"But over there at the church..."

"Anyway, it's not a day or two since the church has been dissatisfied with me, and what happened last time was a moth created by the church itself. They can't understand the booming development of the weekend church, and they want to trouble Merlin, ha ha, but I didn't have that ability, was hanged and beaten by Merlin, lost the competition, and finally dared to do it but didn't dare to admit it, and pushed all the mistakes on Adele's head."

Ilea stood up from the chair and curled her lips, "It doesn't matter what they think. Anyway, I'm going to pick up my friend now!"

After saying that, the girl walked out of the room where government affairs were handled, quickly went downstairs and came to the castle gate, where she saw her friends waiting there.

Adele is much thinner than before. She was already very small, and her head could only reach Ilea's chest. If she was petite when we met last time, she looks thin now, and her eyes Also timid.

After the two met, the former priest's lips moved, as if he wanted to say something, but then the female lord rushed towards her and gave her a firm bear hug.

The triangular ears on Adele's head twitched, and then her nose became sore.

Since she was expelled from the church, she has changed from a respected priestess to a liar that everyone shouts about. No matter where she goes, she is greeted with abuse and glares.

Even her own family had drawn a clear line with her, and all her friends and relatives in the past had closed their doors to her. After she moved out of the temple, she even had no place to stay and could only live in a hotel.

Moreover, after the boss knew her identity, he asked the clerk to throw all her luggage out and asked her to leave immediately.

Adele hasn't felt such a warm hug in a long time.

However, this feeling only lasted for less than a moment, and she heard a dead rabbit cry again, "Hey, why has the feeling changed?!"

The former priest lowered her head and discovered that someone's hand had been wrapped around her body at some point.

Adele quickly stretched out her hand and slapped the strange hand away, but soon her shoulders were picked up by someone again, "Look, you are so thin now, you have no feeling at all. Come in quickly, I will Let the cook stew some meat for you to make up for it."

However, the former priest broke away from the embrace of the female lord, shook his head and said, "I, I won't go in. Being seen will have a bad influence on you. In fact, I heard about the dragon. I just came here to see where I can help."

"Is that so? But how can you help if you don't come in?"

"Just find a place for me to live outside. When the war starts, I can treat the wounded for you." Adele had obviously thought about everything before coming.
