The person Li Yu asked Tom to bring was named Redio.
Redio was born in the Wettin family, but he was only fifteen years old. Perhaps because he had been imprisoned in a dungeon before, his figure was very thin, with thin arms and legs, and he was not as tall as his peers.
She looks a bit frail, but she has a swollen belly and speaks in a soft voice.
Tom didn't say anything, but several lizard warriors in the team obviously didn't like this half-orc boy very much.
Redio is not a member of the Black Dog Guard, has never learned swordsmanship, and his combat ability is approximately zero.
Considering the danger of this trip, bringing such a burden will undoubtedly further increase the risk of mission failure.
Therefore, as soon as he joined the team, many outspoken lizardmen came to Tom to protest, and even suggested that Tom should just find a place to drop them off along the way.
It wasn't until Tom told them that this was Li Yu's decision that the lizard people calmed down and stopped making noise.
Then Tom looked at Redio and asked, "Can you ride a horse?"
As if he didn't notice the lizard people pointing at him just now, Redio nodded calmly, "My father taught me when I was nine years old."
"Very good, you can ask Cinta to pick out a horse you like, then go back to your place to have a good night's rest, say goodbye to your parents, and we'll set off at dawn the next day."
"My father and mother are both dead." Redio said calmly, "I don't have to say goodbye to anyone, and I have already dug my own grave and paid my neighbor four silver coins. If my
If the body is not brought back, he will bury my beloved flute in it."
"Well... it's always a good thing to be prepared." Tom shrugged, "Anyway, welcome to join the team. After leaving the green field, we can only rely on ourselves."
"Saturday and the prophet Merlin will guide us."
Tom always thought that Redio's words were just a simple blessing, because the monks who were on holiday also liked to say these words.
It wasn't until five days later that they disguised themselves as a caravan and arrived outside the Scaled City.
Tom sealed the weapons and various sacred objects with oilcloth, hid them in wine barrels, and planned to sneak into the city.
But before taking action, I received bad news.
This is news from other caravans and travelers. Since the skitarii of High Priest Martina are about to arrive at Dolin City, in order to prevent spies from sneaking into the city first, Douban started to do so two days ago.
The city no longer allows free entry and exit.
Now only those who hold the pass issued by the Layinmondi family or the Silver Moon Church can pass through the city gate.
Tom was dumbfounded now. If he couldn't enter the Scaled City before the Skitarii, it would be even more impossible to get in after High Priest Martina surrounded the Scaled City.
As for waiting until the war between the two sides was over, Tom never thought at all that the Skitarii would besiege the Scaled City for who knows how long, and Clara might not be able to survive that time.
But facing the towering city wall, Tom was now at a loss what to do. Seeing his captain running around anxiously, the lizard warriors also became anxious. On the contrary, Redio looked the same as before.
After getting along with him these days, Tom also discovered that this kid had probably been imprisoned for too long and his family members were all dead. His personality was a bit gloomy and he was not very talkative.
He exudes an aura of "Why isn't this world over yet?", just like a lonely mushroom on a cloudy day, making people not want to get close to him.
However, Tom didn't want to get close to Redio, but Redio took the initiative to come to him.
I told him to find a place with relatively high ground, open surroundings and no one to disturb me.
"Is there any way you can get us into the city?" Tom was shocked when he heard this.
But then Redio shook his head and said, "No."
"......Then why do you want me to find high ground for you?" Tom asked.
"As I said, Prophet Merlin will guide us on Saturday. Since there is nothing you can do now, Captain Jerry, of course you have to ask Prophet Merlin for help."
"Merlin?" Tom suspected that there was something wrong with his ears. "Do you know how far away Merlin is from us? It took us five full days to get from the Green Fields to the Scaled City."
"You are the Black Dog Guard, and you should never doubt the power of the Prophet." Redio reminded.
"I have no doubts about the power of the prophet," Tom said seriously, "I just don't know how we can rely on the prophet Merlin when we are so far apart?"
"This is why the Prophet asked you to take me with you." Redio said, "Let's go, I can help you contact the Prophet."
Tom was hesitant, but he still followed Redio's instructions and found a hillside for him near Scaley City.

Redio looked around, then looked up at the sky above his head, and then lifted up his clothes.
Only then did Tom realize that there was a package wrapped around Redio's lower abdomen that didn't seem to match his figure. Redio opened the package and carefully took out a black box from inside.
In addition, there are various small parts hidden in other places on his body.
Under Tom's surprised gaze, Radioo skillfully removed the small parts one by one and assembled them together. Then he set up the antenna and debugged the machine.
Then he began to mutter something, "My Lord Saturday, your loyal believers are here to plead. Please use your mysterious electromagnetic power so that my call at this time can cross the mountains and rivers and reach the ears of the prophet Merlin."
After Redio finished speaking, there was only a sizzling noise in response.
However, Redio was not discouraged. He stretched out his thumb and little finger and pointed to the sky, while the other three fingers were joined together and pointed to the ground. This is the most commonly used prayer gesture during the holiday.
Then he repeated the previous prayer over and over again.
About the seventh time, a miracle happened, and another voice came from the black box and responded to him.
"Ah, is it Radio, can you copy it?"
"I am Redio, Lord Prophet. I can copy and collect." Redio's voice also became excited, although he had practiced it many times before and even tried it at a longer distance.
But every time he can communicate successfully, he still feels incredible from the bottom of his heart.
Not only him, but Tom on the other side also widened his eyes.
It's not like he has never seen a sacred instrument that can communicate across the air. After all, Li Yu brought a walkie-talkie to Luye when he was slaying the dragon. Even in this operation, Tom also brought two to keep in touch with the team.
But ordinary radio walkie-talkies have a range of use. Let alone from the green field to the scaly city, even if they are patrolling the territory of the Arias family, they will not be able to hear the voices on the other side if they are far away.
Tom never imagined that one day he would hear sounds from the green fields in the Scaled City.
