Fox Demon: God rewards hard work, I will eventually master martial arts and become a god

"It seems that my charm has really decreased a lot, but don't worry, there will be a time when we will meet again."

Priscilla said softly.

Lin Yu didn't understand what this sentence meant, but when he wanted to continue asking, she had already turned around and left with Al.

Their figures disappeared into the darkness.

"Well, now it's time for us to say goodbye."

Lin Yu turned and looked at Sword Demon and Cruel.

"Aren't you coming with us?"

Felix was a little surprised. He was originally immersed in the joy of being rescued and reunited.

Now when he suddenly heard Lin Yu's words, his mind suddenly became a little dazed.

This seemed different from what he thought. He originally thought that after he came back, he could control the current situation together with him.

If Lin Yu was at least by her side, many problems could be solved, and even that crazy woman wouldn't be as scary as imagined.

But if Lin Yu didn't come along, Felix couldn't help but worry about what would happen next.

"Felix."

Crusch looked at him and slowly shook his head.

"This is a decision we made after you came back."

Crusch said softly.

If possible, Crusch and Felix had the same idea, but unfortunately, since Lin Yu had already made the decision, it would not be easily reversed.

Since Crusch said so, Felix couldn't say anything else.

"Thank you for your care during this time."

Crusch whispered.

Lin Yu nodded, Emilia waved goodbye to her, and the two walked further and further away in the darkness.

"What are we going to do now?"

Emilia asked.

"The strength of the knights in the capital is weakening. We can now go to the outskirts of the capital. I want to see if we have a chance to leave the capital."

"Go back to the mansion and find Elsa and the others to help."

Lin Yu said softly.

This feeling had gradually become apparent before, because it was visible to the naked eye that the number of knight soldiers patrolling the streets was gradually decreasing.

Their numbers and frequency are no longer as high as they were in the beginning.

Lin Yu didn't know the specific reason, but this would definitely be a good opportunity.

As for the other candidates for the king in the royal capital, if Lin Yu could leave, he could just let Roswaal send letters to the families and forces of the candidates for the king.

By then, countless reinforcements will come from all directions, and the crisis of Wang Xuan's candidate will be resolved.

"Although you just came back, I should have let you rest for a while to adjust your condition, but now there is no time."

"If the reduction in the number of troops in the capital is true, then it means that the invisible enemy is gradually starting to retreat."

Lin Yu said softly.

"Invisible enemy? Isn't our enemy that crazy woman?"

Emilia was slightly startled.

From Emilia's perspective, perhaps the enemy has always been very clear.

"The Witch Cult has shown up, and I remember that he didn't want to die at the last moment."

"But there was an invisible force that killed him. Priscilla was standing behind me at the time. I think Priscilla was not the only enemy."

"I even suspect that Priscilla might just be a pawn."

Lin Yu said.

"It sounds like we have a pretty bad situation."

Emilia agreed.

"Yes."

Lin Yu nodded, thinking that this was probably the difficulty that his future self would refer to.

"But I believe in you, you will definitely win."

Emilia suddenly smiled.

"The more you expect from me, the greater the disappointment you may have."

Lin Yu was actually not very willing to bear such expectations, because it was the first time that Lin Yu was unsure.

Lin Yu and Emilia did not stop, and Emilia's condition was better than expected.

In order to take care of Emilia, Lin Yu had actually slowed down as much as possible, and originally thought that Emilia would not be able to catch up.

But Emilia might have forced herself to catch up.

When they reached the outskirts of the capital, Emilia did not complain about backaches or anything like that.

Lin Yu observed the troops stationed outside. Ever since the incident in the palace, the entire capital has been under complete martial law, which is different from the beginning.

The number of troops in front of the walls of the royal capital had indeed decreased, but not by much, probably only about one-third.

Lin Yu could force his way out with this number of people, but the noise would be too loud. If possible, Lin Yu hoped to leave the capital in a low-key manner without attracting attention.

“Emilia, you should have been to the capital. Do you remember the route to the capital?”

Lin Yu asked softly.

"This... I can't remember. I haven't been to the capital very often."

Emilia looked embarrassed.

"It's okay, I understand."

Lin Yu nodded.

I was thinking whether I should catch a tongue. Most civilians would not understand the structure of the city wall of the royal capital, so the only ones I could catch were the knights stationed in front of the city gate.

But Lin Yu couldn't help but wonder whether his future self could handle this matter.

A safe path within the walls of the royal capital, a way to leave the capital in the simplest and easiest way.

Lin Yu called out in his heart.

Originally, Lin Yu didn't have any expectations, because Lin Yu knew himself and probably wouldn't remember this kind of location, and it seemed that there was no chance for him to learn this kind of information.

But what was unexpected was that the light appeared in front of Lin Yu as usual.

It seems that my future self knows everything about the world and can even do things like this. He is truly omniscient and omnipotent.

What Lin Yu didn’t understand was that his future self was already able to achieve this, but in the end he still didn’t become the winner.

Lin Yu couldn't imagine how difficult this world was.

Lin Yu took Emilia and followed the white light.

The route was so reassuring that Lin Yu didn't even need to keep himself alert, because sometimes the light would suddenly stop.

When Lin Yu was wondering, an army suddenly passed by.

This is even more useful than navigation, and it can even remind Lin Yu of possible dangers that he cannot see.

I originally thought that in order to sneak into the city wall, I would need to change into the attire of a knight soldier, but in fact it is not necessary.

It was unknown how long the walls of the royal capital had stood, so naturally there would be some unnoticed gaps that Lin Yu could simply climb over.

Then he caught Emilia on top and pulled her up. After officially entering the city wall, Lin Yu could see the scenery outside the capital. There were many caravans stationed outside the capital.

Because the passage was prohibited, they could only block outside.

No one knows when the martial law in the royal capital will end, so they can only wait.

But every day they wait is another day of loss.

Some caravans had no way to accept it, so they had no choice but to leave.

As he went deeper into the city wall, Lin Yu suddenly realized that something was wrong, because the light did not seem to want to take him away from the capital.

Instead, it is marked deeper into the city wall.

The further he walked, the heavier the feeling of uneasiness became, but there was no point in looking back now, so Lin Yu could only follow the light.

"Follow me closely, the closer the better."

Lin Yu said softly.

Emilia then pressed herself against Lin Yu's body, and when they were closest they moved side by side.

Following the guidance of the light, they now seemed to have entered a secret passage in the city wall. The fact that there was such a place in the city wall of the royal capital already made Lin Yu feel a little unbelievable.

Lin Yu was ready to accept the danger. Once the situation got out of control, Lin Yu would kill Emilia.

Let himself enter the backtracking, although he doesn't know where the anchor point of the backtracking is now, but this is the last resort. Lin Yu hasn't done backtracking for a long time.

There was no light ahead, the walls were dark and damp, and a smell of rust hit me in the face.

Intuitively speaking, Lin Yu felt that this location was like a dungeon, a dungeon inside the city wall.

From the perspective of detaining prisoners, there are many soldiers stationed here, making it a good place to detain prisoners.

But no matter how you think about it, there can't be a place leading to the outside of the royal capital. It's reasonable that there is a gap outside the city wall.

But something like this would never happen in prison, otherwise if a prisoner escaped, the crime would be too serious.

As he got closer, Lin Yu could hear low wailing sounds and black railings appearing before his eyes.

Lin Yu became more certain that this was a prison inside the city wall, so he moved closer to see what was behind the fence.

These people lived in very poor conditions. The floor was dirty, there was dried blood on the walls, and some people were rubbing the walls with their fingernails.

This environment, without light, could probably drive people crazy. What kind of criminal needs to be imprisoned in a place like this?

Each cell is separate and the prisoners do not disturb each other, but there are also thugs who will roar loudly when they see someone coming in.

Someone would come to deliver meals every day, and there would be a separate broken bowl in front of each cell.

The light disappeared here, indicating that the hints sent by my future self ended here, and this seemed to be the end of the path.

Lin Yu didn't understand what this meant until he saw a familiar person at the end of the cell.

To be exact, it was the person I met when I entered the palace a long time ago.

Another candidate for the king's selection, Lin Yu didn't know her name and had no contact with her. The only time they met was in the palace.

At that time she was wearing a formal dress, with knights standing beside her, she was wearing expensive clothes, but she had not spoken much.

The palace building had already been destroyed, so Lin Yu's understanding of her was extremely limited.

The two of them met eyes, and she obviously recognized Lin Yu and Emilia next to him. She leaned forward subconsciously, but suddenly stepped back.

It seemed as if she didn't want to be recognized.

It was obvious that compared to the beginning, there was a lot more filth on her body, and she was no longer the glamorous and beautiful self she was back then.

Lin Yu thought she just didn't want to be seen like this.

But if the light disappears here, I am afraid this will be the guidance that my future self will follow.

However, since the other party is also a candidate for the King's Choice, it would be better for Emilia to take the initiative to talk to him.

Lin Yu signaled to Emilia with his eyes.

"The last time we met, we were quite rushed and I didn't have time to ask your name."

So Emilia took the initiative to speak.

"Anastasia Hessin, just call me Anna."

It was too dark in the prison, and she had apparently retreated to a corner of the prison, so her face could not be seen at all.

But her voice was very low and a little hoarse, and the environment here was humid, so she probably had some health problems.

"Okay, Anna, why are you here, protecting your knight?"

Emilia asked again.

"This has nothing to do with you."

Anna's replies became short and even a little impatient, and she was obviously avoiding communication.

But what Lin Yu couldn't understand was what was worth remembering about this place. Normally, when she saw a familiar person, she should have grabbed him like a life-saving straw.

Unless she was not captured by the army at all, but came in voluntarily.

"We can take you away, do you want to go?"

Lin Yu asked softly.

"No need. I believe in Julian. He will definitely come back and take me away."

Anna tried to sound as firm as possible, but if you listened carefully, you would find that her voice was actually trembling.

"You are obviously afraid, why are you still saying that?"

Lin Yu couldn't help but ask.

Anna suddenly shuddered. She didn't expect that her emotions had been discovered at this moment.

"Who is Julius?"

Emilia asked.

"He is my knight, the one you have met, a man you can trust and rely on."

Anna said.

Lin Yu had indeed seen that man. He was dressed in knight's attire, had flirtatious purple hair, and would make some serious movements from time to time.

Just looking at his face is enough to make one worry-free about food and clothing. This is Lin Yu’s evaluation of that guy.

As for strength, since we have never fought each other, there is no way to confirm it.

"In that case, your knight was defeated, so you were imprisoned here."

Lin Yu said softly.

"No, Julius is not defeated."

Anna suddenly came over. She believed in her knight and was not happy at all with what Lin Yu said.

"There's something wrong with the army in the capital right now. Yurius said he wanted to deal with it. He put me here to ensure my safety."

Anna said.

Only then did Lin Yu notice that the bowl in front of Anna was different.

Almost all the prisoners here are treated like animals, and no one will come even if they are left to die, rot and scream.

But Anna eats something different from everyone else.

Lin Yu could even see the cake's packaging and cream.

Anna received special treatment and suffered no discomfort other than the environment in which she lived.

She is not malnourished, has good food every day, has no wounds on her body, and has a doctor who comes to check her body regularly. (End of this chapter)
