Working Prophet.

Chapter 34 The Clockwork Tin Frog

The girl stared at the twisting circle on the screen, she was stunned for a moment, and then her eyes turned red.

The hands holding the necklace were also trembling.

She told herself that the more she had to keep calm, the more she was the head of the Arias family, succeeding her father as the owner of this land, and the people living here would rely on her for protection in the future.

She can no longer hide under the wings of her parents like she did in the past, crying first whenever something happens.

However, at the next moment, her nose still couldn't help sour, and tears fell down hopelessly.

Slapping on the screen of the electronic pet egg.

Like a child who did something wrong, Ilea hurriedly removed the necklace, and carefully wiped away the tears on it with her cuff.

Finally, he pressed it tightly against his chest.

When she opened her eyes again, all the confusion in her pupils had dissipated, replaced by a look of determination.

"The ancestors of the Arias family have made a verdict. The green field is mine, and no one can take it away from me!"

Miss Rabbit's voice is solemn and majestic, and every word is resounding.

It's that simple a lot of the time.

The girl lost her mother when she was very young, and then lost her brother and father one after another. She once thought that those relatives in the family would be her most solid backing, but she didn't expect that one day they would abandon her.

It is not surprising that at such times she would have self-doubt, begin to waver, and then give up on herself.

Until Li Yu used his trump card.

"Awakened" the sleeping ancient spirit in the necklace.

Immediately, a booster was injected into Ilea's fragile heart!

This is more exciting for the girl than hearing from the Marquis of Cullen that she has become the Lord of the Green Field, because it means that her inheritance has been affirmed by the ancestors of the Arias family.

Compared with the opposition from her stepmother and other clan members, it was insignificant. This heavyweight support directly swept away the haze in her heart and gave her infinite strength.

Miss Rabbit jumped up and down like a tin frog that had been fully wound up again.

Jude, who was observing the whole process from the sidelines, was also amazed, and he also silently recorded the series of steps to awaken the ancient spirit in his heart, in case of emergency.

It's a pity that he didn't know where to find the most important kind of round and flat sacred stone.

Jude guessed that that might be the key to the whole ceremony, which was priceless.

But soon his chance came. Li Yu just tossed the old sacred stone out of the necklace into the grass beside him.

Jude leaned over there under the pretext that he wanted to relieve himself, and then he squatted down and had a fight with the black beauty to find him.

At this moment, the sky was completely dark, with only sporadic starlight above his head, and Jude couldn't light the fire, and one person and one dog just fumbled like blind chickens in the dark.

Although I managed to touch them in the end, when I came back, I found that Miss Rabbit looked at them differently.

Fortunately, the girl was very understanding and did not mention this embarrassing incident again.

People, more or less have some eccentricities, especially like Jude, who always wanders in the wild by himself and doesn’t see other people all the year round. It is also reasonable to have some mental problems and develop some special hobbies that ordinary people can’t understand. .

The kind-hearted Miss Rabbit has already found an excuse for Jude in her heart.

Soon, she turned her attention back to the current situation, thought for a moment, and said to her guards and advisors, "I need to find a way to enter the castle as soon as possible, and Alfred and his people meet."

"Aren't you worried about being surrounded together?" Half-face asked.

The girl shook her head, "There is enough food stored in the castle to feed the people inside for more than half a year. Vanessa didn't have the guts to besiege us for so long. In fact, every day it dragged on, the situation became more unfavorable to her. I After all, he is the rightful owner of Lu Ye who was elected by everyone's public vote.

"On the contrary, she has an unknown teacher now, and the soldiers who can be mobilized are nothing more than relying on her identity as the wife of the former lord, and there is a time difference before the news of my election as the head of the family has not yet come back.

"But paper can't contain fire after all. So many people were present on the day of the election. Marquis Cullen, Romero, and Lord Leo can all testify for me. The truth will come out sooner or later."

"But the people in the castle don't know this. As long as my stepmother is not stupid, she will definitely make a fuss about it, turn black and white, and send me back a letter asking Alfred to take the Teacup Castle and slander me as unwilling to fail and dying. So the most important thing right now is to stabilize the hearts of those people in the castle."

Ilea, holding the necklace in her hand, had an unprecedented clarity of mind.

If she is playing a game now, she should have a powerful buff of "Blessed by the ancestors, IQ +100%" on her head.

But soon, Jude poured cold water on her again, "How do you go back? Your stepmother has set up heavy troops at the gate, um, but you are from the Arias family, so you should know some secret ways The back door or something."

"I know, but it's useless, because my stepmother also knows, and she will definitely pay special attention to those places." The girl also frowned.

Afterwards, she heard Li Yu, who hadn't spoken all the time, say, "You guys have been discussing for a long time, and I haven't seen what the castle looks like yet. It's not too late to take a look before making a decision."

Jude looked at his employer, and seeing the latter nodded, he also happily said, "Then let me lead the way."

The three of them lowered their bodies, walked lightly, and walked quietly through the edge of the forest. As the eyes suddenly opened up, Li Yu finally saw the Teacup Fort that Miss Rabbit had been thinking about along the way.

Contrary to his expectations, the castle of the Arias family is quite beautiful.

The main body of the stone castle is in the shape of an inverted teacup, standing on a small hill with a good view. At the same time, the steep hillside will make it difficult for all attackers to get there, restricting their attack routes, and making it difficult for them to attack. The fortress became easier to defend and harder to attack.

There are huge white stone walls outside the stone castle. The height of those stone walls has reached five meters by visual inspection, and they look very solid, with side towers built at intervals.

The flanking towers protrude outward, allowing the archers stationed on them to attack from the side, and at the same time cooperate with the friendly forces on the city wall and nearby flanking towers to form a three-way sandwich.

Such a fortress can undoubtedly provide a considerable sense of security for the people in it in the era of cold weapons.

Li Yu has seen many medieval castles in photos and movies before, but he couldn't help but be amazed by its beauty when he first saw Teacup Fort.

Especially when this ancient castle was bathed in starlight, accompanied by a gust of evening wind, Li Yu seemed to be in a fairy tale.

　Thank you for the rewards of the lonely hero who wandered for little A, and my fierce threshing batch of children's boots.
