Work Prophet

Hearing that Li Yu was going to plant a curse on her, Lannita was quite frightened.

However, she was now being held down on the ground, unable to struggle, and could only watch helplessly as the needle of the syringe pierced into her skin.

Fortunately, the strange curse ritual did not last long, and soon Li Yu retracted the empty syringe, fitted the needle cap, and carefully stored it in a sealed bag.

Afterward, he gestured for the two black hound guards to release the Wing Tribe girl.

The first thing Lannita did after getting up was to check her arm.

She saw a few drops of blood oozing from the puncture site, but other than that, there seemed to be no abnormalities, and the pain lasted only for a brief moment.

She later moved her wrists and ankles a bit to confirm that her body was also normal.

But the Wing Tribe girl dared not take it lightly, after all, the person who had acted was Merlin, and Lannita had already seen more than one thing beyond common sense with him.

She still could not understand how he had snatched the White Queen from her.

"Seven days, right? If Solomon does not send troops to attack the West in seven days, you will remove the curse from me," Lannita confirmed with Li Yu again.

"As long as Solomon keeps his promise, the curse on you will dissolve on its own when the time comes," Li Yu nodded.

He wasn't exactly lying, because it was very likely that the Wing Tribe girl wouldn't live that long.

Lannita stared into the eyes of the man in black in front of her, but it was pitch black, and she couldn't discern anything.

Afterward, Li Yu had someone take Lannita out of the dungeon.

The long-missed sunlight gave the Wing Tribe girl a hint of warmth, but she hadn't had the chance to appreciate the scenery outside the dungeon when her gaze was drawn to a strange figure.

At first glance, Lannita wasn't even sure if it was a person because his entire body was wrapped in a strange white garment, with not a single piece of skin exposed.

Even the eyes were hidden behind a layer of transparent film, and the mouth and nose were also covered, which looked extremely bizarre.

However, the pair of wings behind him still betrayed his identity as a member of the Wing Tribe.

Lannita raised her eyebrows, it seemed she was not the only one from Yaxu who had surrendered to the Double Rest Sect.

The Wing Tribe girl could not see the person's face, she could only guess that the person in front of her was a fellow companion of Shajia.

She wanted to try and strike up a conversation with the strangely dressed kin to clear up his identity, but before she could speak, she was pushed by the guard behind her.

So Lannita could only continue walking forward, eventually being strapped to the back of the White Dragon.

Meanwhile, the Lady also walked out of the castle, and because the trip was quite far and the wind up in the sky was quite strong, Ireya had specifically changed into the down jacket Li Yu had given her.

Afterward, she put on a layer of chainmail and wore a new helmet.

This explosion-proof helmet was picked up by Eco-friendly Frog at some point, seeing how much Miss Rabbit enjoyed riding dragons, and her old bucket helmet blocked too much of her vision.

Li Yu then brought it out, had Ge Lipeng do some modifications, spray painted it, and printed the Arias family's rabbit crest on it, now it looked quite stylish.

"Ready to set off?" Li Yu asked.

The Lady nodded.

"Are you nervous?"

"A bit," admitted Miss Rabbit, "but I feel much better thinking that you'll be by my side."

"So this time, you will command the White Queen."

During this period of interaction, Miss Rabbit and the White Dragon had grown quite familiar with each other, especially with Li Yu acting as a go-between.

Even when he was absent, the White Dragon no longer resisted Lady Ireya climbing onto its back and, in good moods, would even heed her simple commands.

Li Yu planned to further foster the bond between Miss Rabbit and the White Dragon, so in case of any danger, the young girl could escape by dragon.

With Li Yu's help, Miss Rabbit climbed onto the dragon's back and fastened her safety belt.

Then, Li Yu turned to Zhu Zhigang who was fully outfitted in protective gear, complete with a mask and goggles, and the latter made a 'six' hand gesture toward him.

Li Yu returned the same gesture, and both men took their places on the dragon's back, one after the other.

Finally, Miss Rabbit took one last look at the crowd in front of the castle.

There stood her aunt Alisa, the old knight Alfred, her Guard Captain Thomas, the adviser Fosto, Abus whom she had picked up in Lake City, her friends Adelle and Angela... and some nearby nobles, all there to see her off.

With the news that Solomon was leading an army to attack the western territories, many nobles had either hastily sent people to surrender or were packing up their valuables, preparing to flee with their families.

At such a time, very few had the courage to go and stop the formidable army, especially when Lady Ireya's party consisted of just three people.

Miss Rabbit thought she should say something memorable at this historical moment, but when the words reached her lips, they turned into,

"Keep a close eye on the spring plowing... Since those bastards haven't arrived yet, we still have to plant crops; it's all money, after all."

Alisa nodded, "Don't worry, I'll take care of the farm."

Although Lady Ireya's words seemed off-topic, her concern about planting and making money at such a time showed she was quite confident about returning, which lightened the rather solemn atmosphere a bit.

Then, Ireya patted the White Dragon's neck and commanded it to take off using the Wing Tribe language she had learned from Lannita.

Soon, the well-fed White Dragon spread its wings and soared into the sky, reaching the border between the western territories and Golden Valley in less than two days.

Miss Rabbit remembered Li Yu's advice and had the White Dragon land early, waiting until it was well into the evening before Li Yu appeared again.

The prophet of the Double Rest Sect first checked on Lannita, who was vomiting under a tree.

Upon seeing Li Yu, she wiped her mouth and complained, "I've never been tied to the back of a dragon for so long before, and upside down at that. Can't you switch my position?"

"Just hang in there a little longer, we're almost there."

"Great, I can't wait to have a glass of wine," Lannita yawned as she spoke.

Li Yu pulled out a Harbin Red Sausage he was carrying, "Do you want something to eat?"

"No, I just want to rest as soon as possible. Can you help me take this thing off my back? It has been uncomfortable this whole ride."

The Wing Tribe girl pointed at the shackles on her back.

"No."

"Okay then." Lannita found another tree to lean against, closed her eyes, and truly seemed exhausted.

Li Yu observed her for a while longer, then stepped in front of the Wing Tribe girl and used his phone to shine a light at the corners of her eyes, spotting signs of swelling nearby.

This indicated that the virus had indeed started to take effect in her body.
