Working Prophet.

Chapter 447 Only by living can I serve my Lord
"My sense of humor is far from comparable to yours." Ferdinand said.

"Why do you say that?"

"Because you actually plan to go to the martial arts tournament in person." The head of the Bathory family looked up and down at the female lord, shaking his head, "This is too nonsense."

"Who did you hear that from?" Ilea frowned upon hearing the words. His Majesty the Emperor wanted her to end the contest. Even in the green field, only a few people knew about it.

And those are people trusted by the female lord, she did not tell the news to others.

"I only heard about it after I came to Lake City, and the news spread quickly, not just in Lake City.

"I sent people to ask people from other places, and they also said that they heard similar rumors in the past two days, and it is likely that someone behind the scenes is fanning the flames. By the way, have you offended anyone recently?
"I've offended a lot of people, but I can probably guess who did it. What do those messages say about me, saying that I'm just a woman after all, and I don't have a man in my crotch. Are you timid and afraid of fighting?"

"It's worse than this." Ferdinand said, "They say that you are the hero of the Western Region, and you will definitely fight for the honor of the Western Region and defeat all competitors in the tournament."

"what……"

"Now that you are in the limelight in the western region, there won't be many people who will buy you if you directly smear you as a coward, so those who spread the news will do the opposite and add fire to you.

"If you can't do it in the future, not only will you lose all the reputation you have accumulated now, but you may also become a laughing stock in the future."

"It's called the higher you hold, the more painful it is to fall." Jude interjected.

"That's right." Ferdinand's beard flicked as he spoke.

"Then do you have any suggestions?" asked the hostess.

"My advice is just don't fall for it."

"Don't be fooled?"

"Yes, you must not be provoked by the other party at this time, because no matter who is spreading this rumor, he obviously hopes that you can participate in this martial arts competition. If you are so angry that you lose your mind, it is him wanted to see."

"Don't worry, I won't be fooled by such a clumsy trick."

After Miss Rabbit finished speaking, she found that the surrounding atmosphere was a bit strange, and she couldn't help but wondered, "Why, why are you all looking at me, do I seem to be the kind of person who can't control his temper?"

"You said that I resemble my father, so do you know how people evaluate you?" Ferdinand said leisurely.

"Everyone says that Miss Ilea of ​​the Arias family and her father are carved out of the same mold. They both have clear love and hate, love and hate happily, and are fearless."

"Don't always look at me with old eyes. I am not a little girl anymore. I have matured a lot after being a lord for a year." Ilea said, "Let's go to the city, rest for a night, and continue on our way tomorrow."

"Didn't Prophet Merlin come with you this time?" Ferdinan asked as he walked into the city.

"He'll show up when I'm in trouble, just like in the past, but right now we're on our way, and he'll take this opportunity to deal with some things on the side of the Kingdom of God."

Ferdinand was silent for a moment, and then said, "The connection between you...seems very close."

"Close? No, I wouldn't use this word to describe the relationship between me and Merlin. We are a level higher than this. He will go wherever I go. We will never be separated.

"Uh...well, technically speaking, we will be apart for a while, but usually it's not too long, and next time Merlin will definitely appear by my side.

"He was the person I trusted most after my father passed away, my advisor, friend, mentor, my health practitioner..."

"Say hello to him for me," said the Patriarch of the Bathory family.

"You can tell him yourself that you will definitely see him when we are on the road."

Since she was only passing through Lake City and rested in the city for half a day, Miss Rabbit didn't want to socialize with the Marier family or attend any dinner parties, so she asked people to put away the family's rabbit flag early.

But I didn't expect this move to cause new troubles. The guards guarding the city stopped them and did not allow them to enter the city.

In the end, it was Ferdinand who came forward to guarantee that the female lord could enter the city smoothly.

"Strange, I heard people say that Lake City is quite open. Even if you wear armor and carry weapons, as long as there are not too many people, you won't be prevented from entering the city."

"That was in the past, and now all the lords in the entire western region are guarding against the attack of Herodotus and his Blood Moon Society, and the inspection of entering the city is much stricter than before." Ferdinand explained.

Then he looked at Jude again.

"Is there anything else?" Jude's voice sounded from behind the mask.

In order not to scare the ordinary people in the city and cause trouble, he put on the iron mask before entering the city to cover the scars on his face.

"It's better for you to wrap up the things on your wrists, or take them off for a while." The Patriarch of the Bathory family suggested.

He was talking about the silicone bracelets on the hands of Jude and others.

Because it is cheap and recognizable, Li Yu issued one to every believer who completed the initiation ceremony, which is also their identity badge.

Except for the green field, the residents of the major towns in the western region are almost all Pithia believers, and the relationship between the Silver Moon Church and the Shuangxiu Church is very tense.

Even leaving aside Herodotus and the Blood Moon Society he led, ordinary goddess believers have a faint hostility towards the people of Saturday.

The deputy head of the Black Dog Guard did not hesitate for long, and took off the bracelet and put it away.

And with him taking the lead, the guards in the black dog position followed suit and took off their wristbands one after another. As for the Hughes, they carried radio stations, and they were supposed to lurk in the town.

Li Yu's order to them was to keep a low profile and not reveal their identities, so they didn't wear bracelets at all when they left the green field.

A strange look appeared on Ferdinand's face when he saw this. Although he reminded Jude, he didn't have much hope.

Because he knows that just like knights often shout that honor is my life, for devout believers, faith is also higher than life.

On the contrary, it was the actions of the Black Dog Guards at this time that surprised him a little.

The explanation given by Jude is very simple, "Only by living can we serve our Lord."

Ilea was the last person to take off the bracelet. She carefully put the red bracelet away and followed Ferdinand to the hotel.

As a result, at the entrance of the hotel, everyone in the green field saw several prison cars passing by. There were not only young men in those prison cars, but also women, children and old people.

There are hundreds of people.

They all looked bad, obviously suffering for a long time, and many of them were missing arms and legs, and looked dying.
