Miss Rabbit thought about it for five whole days, but still couldn't come up with any good solution.
At most, the mercenaries and their own guards can be mixed into a team, which can reduce some casualties, but if this is done, there will be problems in command and deployment.
Those mercenaries are not fools. They will definitely run away when the situation is bad, and they don't mind selling their companions in order to survive.
So Pablo would rather go deep into the swamp by himself than go with those mercenaries.
Ilea managed to calm down the hot-tempered knight temporarily and prevented him from going to die alone.
But Ilea couldn't find the manpower Pablo requested.
With the lessons learned from the previous team, there were very few guards willing to join the team this time, and most of them were old. Some even had weak legs and feet, which made Miss Rabbit suspect that the other party was just for the pension.
.
I definitely shouldn't want such a person. Ilea sent people to find the dragon, not because she was afraid that the dragon would be hungry, so she sent people to give it extra food.
So the girl finally decided to follow the old rules and ask Li Yu if something happened.
"...Anyway, this is the current situation." Miss Rabbit said, "I can't choose any manpower here. What about your side? Those lizard people, um... are they still willing to continue going deep into the swamp?
?”
"The lizard people are very afraid of that dragon, but they always put the group first, and they are willing to sacrifice themselves if necessary." Li Yu paused.
"But they have all joined the Shuangxiu Cult now. Our Lord values the lives of every believer on Saturday. In order to save people, especially two of their tribesmen in the team, I can send them to take risks and enter the swamp to search.
"But now that evidence has been found that proves that something unexpected happened to the previous team, I have no reason to let them risk their lives and go back to face the nightmare."
"Is that so?" Miss Rabbit couldn't hide her disappointment, "But if the lizard people are not willing to send more people, even if I finally gather enough people, it will be difficult for the team to survive in the swamp without a guide, let alone
Don't talk about going to find that dragon."
"Who said there is no guide?"
"Um?"
"I heard that in two days you will execute the murderer of the Trinidad Knight family." Li Yu suddenly said.
"You want to intercede for them?" Ilea frowned, "The Trinidad knights have always been very worried about their family, but their family was brutally massacred by the lizard people. I had already taken a step back and only allowed those lizard people to intercede.
Bring out the murderer.
"If I let go of these three people, it will chill the hearts of my vassals."
"I didn't ask you to let the people go, I just suggested that they let them use their remaining energy before they died." Li Yu said, "It happens that your second team needs guides, and they can become guides. Instead of letting them just do this."
It would be better for them to lose their heads in vain and die under the executioner's axe, than to let them die in the hands of that dragon."
"But what if they don't die?" the girl asked.
"That means they found the dragon. This achievement should make you rethink their judgment."
"So you're still begging for them?"
Li Yu did not deny it, "Judging from the results of the first team, searching for a dragon is a narrow escape. Let's just leave their sins to fate to judge... As for the person who leads the team, I can also recommend it to you."
A choice.”
"Oh, who?"
"He is also in your dungeon, and his time is short."
"Wait a minute, do you want me to let Jude go too?" A strange look appeared on Miss Rabbit's face.
Before Li Yu could answer, she shook her head again and said, "No, let's forget about the lizard man. Jude must not be let go. He is a remnant of the Enriquez family. The reward that was placed more than 900 years ago is still valid today. I must put him down."
His head was handed over to Marquis Cullen. In fact, I have already made a decision to attack him after executing those three lizardmen."
"Then can you find anyone else willing to lead the team to find the dragon?"
"Well... Chevalier Pablo said he could go."
"You and I both know that Pablo's real purpose is to seek revenge on that dragon. If you let him go, you will only let him lose his life in vain."
The girl was speechless, she knew what Li Yu said was true.
But the problem is that Jude's identity is too sensitive. Compared with him, those in the Weiting family are nothing.
Seeing the girl's hesitation, Li Yu did not urge her.
…………
Two days later, guards came to the dungeon and took the three lizardmen away.
Jude whistled when he saw this, and regardless of whether the lizard people could understand it, he said to them, "Are you going to say goodbye? I will miss you. You are all pretty good roommates, right, Black Beauty?"
."
After Jude said his last words, he looked at the loyal big black dog beside him.
After being imprisoned for such a long time, although Ilea did not treat the man and the dog too badly in terms of food, the black beauty still seemed a little depressed, perhaps because she had not seen the sun for too long.
"Don't worry, I guess it will be our turn soon." Jude said as he reached out and stroked the big black dog's head.
As a result, as soon as he finished speaking, the two guards who had left before came back again.
Opening his cell door, Jude said coldly from inside, "Come out!"
Jude's expression finally changed this time. Although he knew that he was dead from the moment his identity was revealed and he was caught. It was luck to live for two more months. However, when this moment really came, he
I still feel a little caught off guard.
He forced a smile on his face and said, "Aren't we just going to execute those lizardmen today? I'm not on the same side as them either."
"Stop talking nonsense, come out as soon as you are told." The guard said solemnly, "Don't force us to take action!"
Jude glanced at the hand crossbow in the opponent's hand, then at the black beauty at his feet who was ready to attack, and finally gave up the idea of resisting.
Even if he and Black Beauty could deal with the two people in front of them, they would not be able to escape from the castle.
Jude sighed, obediently left the cell where he was held, and murmured, "This story tells us that when we see other people being unlucky, it's best not to be too happy."
However, to Jude's expectation, he was not taken outside the castle for execution, but instead came to the hall on the second floor.
The three lizardmen who were taken away before were also there.
At the other end of the hall, the new head of the Arias family was sitting upright, and Li Yu was also there, just to her left.
Jude was keenly aware that things might have taken a turn for the better.
So he looked at Miss Rabbit who was looking up, grinned and said, "Long time no see, do you miss me?"
Miss Rabbit has been dealing with Jude for so long, and she knows that talking nonsense is this guy's usual method of hiding his true thoughts and bargaining with others.
But this time the girl didn't intend to argue with him anymore, and said straightforwardly, "I have a deal I want to discuss with you. If you agree, I will tell you the contents of the deal. If you don't agree, I will ask the guards to take you to the execution."
