It's been almost a month since Lanita was caught.

The Winged Maiden has been locked up in the dungeon beneath Teacup Castle ever since, and she has tried to escape, but the guards guarding her are sixteen in shifts of four.

Day or night, there was always someone watching her.

Lanita didn't speak the lingua franca of the continent, so she couldn't threaten or lure the guards, and the guys barely made any eye contact with her.

No matter how much Lanita yelled and cried, they were indifferent.

Coupled with the handcuffs on her hands and the heavy shackles on her feet, as well as the shackles specially made for her wings, the girl finally discouraged the idea of escaping from here.

However, the man who claimed to be a prophet kept his promise that day, did not kill Lanita, did not even torture her, and arranged for a herbalist to check the girl's body regularly to see if she was sick.

Although the food was not rich, there was no restraint, Lanita and the guards ate the same food, except for bread, vegetables, fish, and pork, which were changed every two days.

But Lanita still felt like she was going crazy.

She didn't know who her biological parents were, but she had been adopted by Zebulun for as long as she could remember, and she had been Zebulun's daughter in the eyes of outsiders ever since, which fostered her haughty character.

Later, because of an unfortunate accident after a drinking banquet on a rainy night, Zebulun felt guilty about her.

Since then, there has been nothing Lanita wants that she can't get, and no one can stop her from doing what she wants to do.

And just two years ago, she also became a disciple of the white-robed wizard Amos, backed by the Wizarding Society, and even Zebulun was jealous of this daughter.

After that, Lanita did everything smoothly, and everyone she met treated her with respect, until she came to the West, and she suffered her first defeat in her life.

Not only did he lose the white dragon, but he also became a prisoner overnight. Freedom was completely lost.

It was the first time she had been locked up in such a small, gloomy cage, deprived of her birthright to fly.

She felt that her wings were going to mold, so after lunch, she began to hold on to the wooden fence of her cell and began to shout Merlin's name.

Lanita wanted to see the Prophet of the Church of Peace, and ask him how long he planned to keep her in.

She screamed until her throat was smoking, but the guards remained indifferent.

Just when the girl was exhausted and wanted to give up, the door to the dungeon finally opened again.

A large wooden basin was sent down.

They were accompanied by two maids, who poured two buckets of steaming hot water into a wooden basin, and then went outside to fetch water from the well and mix them together.

Lanita's eyes narrowed as she saw a familiar figure appear in the dungeon doorway.

"It's you, Yasu, you finally remembered to come and see me, I thought you would be ashamed to betray me, betray our people, and the mother goddess Gaiya and never dare to see me again."

Yaxu's face suddenly turned red when he heard this, "I'...... I don't have a choice, Mistress Lanita. ”

"I thought you could have a fresher set of rhetoric, all traitors will justify themselves like this, and when you repeat it enough times, you can even convince yourself."

The girl leaned her cheek to the bar, "But answer me, Wing Clan warrior, are you afraid of death?" ”

"I ...... I'm not afraid of death, or I wouldn't have taken a huge risk seven years ago to come to this continent and lurk here. Yaxu subconsciously straightened his chest and said.

"What happened to Black Rock City before, could it be that you tricked me into the trap of the Shuangxiu Sect out of some kind of personal grudge?"

"It's hard to explain," Asu said seriously, "anyway, you...... We should heed the advice of the prophet Merlin and abandon the attack on the West, preferably persuading Solomon to retreat to the continent where we used to live with the rest. ”

"Hadland, you say?" Lanita scoffed, "It is full of barrenness and calamity, and although the Mother Goddess Gaia still cares for us, the earth beneath our feet has abandoned us.

"The crops are dying, the branches are bearing poisonous fruit, the lakes are drying up, we have less and less prey, and if you look at the land here it is like milk and honey flowing.

"The peasants only had to sow the seeds and wait for the harvest, and they even used the surplus grain to make wine, and the city was full of drunken nobles, their rivers were full of fish, and the woods were full of wild boars and deer.

"What's more important is the natives here, they are weak, we can easily defeat and enslave them, whether it is Solomon or Zebulun, they will not let go of the fat that is brought to their mouths and not eat."

But Ass said, "That's just a façade, there's a Saturday, it's very dangerous, it's more dangerous than all the calamities we've ever encountered. ”

Lanita shrugged, "I lost to the guy named Merlin, and I'll admit that he does have something, but ...... That doesn't stop us from getting in the way.

"From what I know about Solomon, he is estimated to have led a large army to the west by now, and when the time comes, whether it is Merlin or the Shuangxiu Sect, they will be vulnerable in the face of absolute power.

The girl paused, then continued, "The key now is how I can save my own life in the upcoming battle.

"If the female lord named Ilea or Merlin finds no hope of victory and kills me before I die, then I will lose a lot.

"So Yaxu, I need your help," the girl said directly, "As long as you can help me escape, your previous betrayal of me can be written off, and even the matter of your defection to the Shuangxiu Sect can be found to help you cover up the past."

"Hmm...... Let's just say that you deliberately lurked around Merlin and gathered information. You know who I am and how much energy is behind it. ”

Yasu shook his head, "I won't help you escape." ”

Lanita slammed her fist on the fence, "Great, your stupid decision will kill us both, so why are you still here?" ”

"Come and do your last effort to save your people and save our people."

"Don't you think it's a bit of a mockery to spit this out of a traitor's mouth?"

Asu didn't answer Lanita's question again, and a strange look of disappointment and sadness appeared on his face.

The Wing Clan girl didn't like the way Yasu looked at her now, but the latter didn't explain anything, just threw the clean clothes in her arms in front of Lanita.

"Take a bath, and put it on."

"Why, tomorrow is my death?"

"No, the prophet Merlin is ready to fulfill his promise to send you back to Solomon."
