Chapter 56: A Ru Village Shock? The crisis is coming!.

With the return of the three.

The originally violent and roaring sandstorm seems to have gradually passed.

Now, through the tumbling sand, you can already faintly see the vision behind the dust.

“Is the sandstorm finally coming to an end?”

Holding a stack of astrological charts, Lyra showed joy. In general, the first night after a dust storm. There will be a very bright and clear starry sky.

This is the best time to draw a star map. It’s just–Sister Candice’s look, why does something seem to be a little wrong?

“Sister Candice, what’s wrong?”

Leyra straightened her hat and asked suspiciously.

“The village–”

“It seems that something has happened!”

Candice stared straight ahead. The sandstorm is about to fade.

At the end of the vision, you can already faintly see the wooden bridge at the entrance of Aru Village.

“Something happened to Arucun?”

“How so?”

“Aru village is surrounded by tall sand and stone hills, and the impact of sandstorms is very limited.”

Leyra recalled the knowledge she had about sandstorms in her memory and spoke in disbelief.

And she followed Candice’s gaze.

In the distance, the village of Aru looks no different from usual.

“It’s a guard.”

“The guards Candice left behind are gone.”

Ye Chen glanced around nonchalantly.

“Near the entrance of the village, it seems that a guard did not see it.”

“Not to mention the six guards who came out with us earlier.”

“I remember, it seems that when the sandstorm was at its strongest, the village entrance was also guarded by two guards all the time.”

“Today’s village entrance is empty.”

“It’s abnormal.”

The sandstorm could not block Ye Chen’s line of sight.

Even the entire village, in his perception, was quiet. Even, there is a hint of blood.

It’s very light, but it can’t be hidden from Ye Chen.

“Oh?”

“Unexpectedly, your observation power is not weaker than your strength.”

Candice glanced at Ye Chen with a slight surprise, and slowly clenched the gun in her hand. Ye Chen was only coming to Aru Village for the first time.

To be able to have such keen observation.

If it weren’t for the fact that the situation was wrong at this time, even she couldn’t help but think 19 to praise.

“Stay alert and stay safe!”

“No matter what happens in the village, just go in and take a look.”

Candice holds a shield in her left hand and a gun in her right.

Slowly relaxed his pace, and the whole person tensed. Before Ye Chen and Layla, he walked forward first.

“That’s right.”

“Laila, you are closer to Ye Chen.”

“If there is danger, I may not be able to take care of you.”

“If you want to come to Ye Chen, you should have the spare power to take care of you.”

Candice’s gradually solemn voice sounded through the duststorm that gradually stopped, ringing in the ears of Ye Chen and Laila.

“No problem, I see.”

Lyila approached Ye Chen in time and leaned against his right arm.

As an obedient and sensible student, Lyila is still quite obedient to listen to appropriate advice and orders.

Just like when conducting research in the field, if you do not strictly follow the safety guidelines set by the instructor, whether it is a beast or a dead domain, it is easy to cause casualties.

“But–”

“Sister Candice!”

“Don’t you need to probe carefully first?”

“Knowing that something happened in the village, do you want to go directly in like this?”

Lyila subconsciously worried.

From the point of view of scholars.

Everything should be done first by observation, then by strategy, and finally by proper action.

“No need!”

“In Ah Ru Village, there is no situation that I can’t handle!”

“Hmph! I want to see which guy is doing the ghost this time! ”

The voice came with great confidence.

Lyila was a little stunned! In general, this should be hubris.

But listening to Candice’s words, Lyra did not feel this way at all.

“Ye Chen?”

Lyila looked up at Ye Chen. The ambiguity speaks for itself.

“It doesn’t matter.”

“If something happens, I will strike!”

“Besides, don’t underestimate Candice.”

Ye Chen spoke lightly.

He had some guesses about the situation in the village.

Most of them are inseparable from the previous group of businessmen. Only, if only they.

Candice is perfectly capable of handling it.

After all, Candice’s strength was recognized by him and General Raiden.

“Well.”

“And you, it should be fine.”

“Let’s go quickly, Sister Candice has already gone to the front.”

Listen to what Ye Chen said.

Lyila finally felt much calmer.

It shouldn’t be difficult for Inazuma to deal with the unknown situation encountered in a small village, right? Pulling Ye Chen’s sleeve, Layla and Ye Chen quickened their pace together.

When the three of them walked to the entrance of Ah Ru Village. The sandstorm has completely subsided.

The obscured light and vision are restored again.

Only faint and unsettled fine sand still floats in the air. Quiet surrounding.

“Crunch–”

The sound of three people stepping on the wooden bridge was particularly noticeable.

And after Candice stepped across the wooden bridge, the whole person was like a fierce leopard ready to attack. She held her breath and paid attention to everything around her.

Above the spear in his hand, the power of the water element stirred, oscillating the air, and there was a radical subtle and slightly piercing sharp buzz. One second!

Two seconds! Five seconds!

The three of them walked along the path at the entrance of the village towards the village. Along the way, there was not even a single person.

It is flanked by two rows of stone-walled houses that are two feet tall. If you keep walking, you will reach the small square of Aru Village.

“Here it comes!”

Ye Chen’s gaze swept carelessly to the upper right and gently spoke. In the next second, above the stone house, a person jumped out.

He was holding a steel knife, which was a jump slash and slashed at Candice. Candice stepped forward with a shield.

And the same as at this time. Six or seven more sneaked in from Candice’s diagonal rear, heading for the gap behind her.

“Huh!?”

“Sister Candice, danger!”

Lyra reminded in a panic.

Sister Candice has been surrounded! It’s dangerous!

“Ye Chen, aren’t you going to make a move?”

Leila looked up, but saw Ye Chen shook his head, his eyes calmly looking at Candice in front of him. Her heart was in her throat.

The sword light, as well as the smell of blood on these gilded brigade mercenaries, made her worry to the extreme.

[Holy Rite Heron Guard]!

With the shield on Candice’s left arm as the center, a water element shield was stretched out, and all attacks fell on the shield, making it difficult to advance!

“Drink!”

A sharp whisper! The water elemental shield suddenly exploded, but Candice jumped violently, and the spear in her hand swept across!

Between the electric flint, the mercenaries who sneaked up on them were all swept away!

“Shhhh

The sound of smashing the ground on one side.

All the mercenaries, either broke their hands or folded their feet, fell to the ground and wailed.

“This–”

“Is Sister Candice so powerful?”

Lyila was stunned.

Candice actually repelled all incoming enemies with just one blow. This is also too strong!

“Ye Chen, you already knew, didn’t you?”

Seeing that Ye Chen only nodded slightly, Layla knew that he had known this for a long time.

No wonder I’m not worried about Sister Candice at all! But.

I really want to see him strike once! Lyila peeked at Yechen and hurriedly withdrew her gaze. The battle of Thor’s dependents,

Maybe you can publish a paper with a high impact factor.

“Let’s go.”

“I’d rather see what the hell these mercenaries are trying to do!”

It’s as if nothing happens.

Candice flicked the blood on the gun and beckoned Ye Chen and the two to follow. For the next nearly 100 meters, it was quiet and nothing happened.

It wasn’t until out of this alley, the small square in the center of the village, appeared in the view of the three. The small square was already full of people at this time.

On the left side of the square, there are more than a dozen people dressed up as villagers in Ah Ru Village, armed with weapons, and after they saw Candice and Ye Chen, they gradually cast their eyes, as if they had been waiting for a long time.

On the right side of the square, there are all gilded brigade mercenaries holding weapons. Behind them was the beast of burden that had previously arrived with the caravan, the package on the back of the beast had been opened, and the weapons in it were gone.

In the center of the square, some of the villagers who were tied up were the members of the guard that Ye Chen had seen before. Uncle Ampu and Isaac were among them.

“Lord Candice, you’re finally back!”

“The former defenders actually secretly colluded with the gilded brigade outside!”

“They took advantage of your departure during the sandstorm and took down all the guards.”

“They also tied up all the villagers who disobeyed.”

As soon as I saw Candice who came over.

The guard, who was still stained with blood, complained loudly.

“Yes, Lord Candice!”

“Now the village is full of their people, you run, leave us alone!”

……

More guards shouted worriedly. And on the west side of the square.

An old man with a white beard and a wrinkled face and vicissitudes of life squeezed the weapon in his hand.

“Candice, as the current guardian, you shouldn’t be able to run, right?”

“Although, you have long since privately violated the instructions of your ancestors.”

The white-bearded old man, who didn’t seem to be worried that Candice would run away at all, actually laughed.

“Candice!”

“You violated the ancestral instructions and opened a caravan trade privately!”

“Look at the current Aru Village, what has it decayed?”

“If you hadn’t gone your own way, how could most of the young people in the village have left the village!?”

“You sinner!”

“When I chose you as the successor guardian, I was really blind!”

Behind the white-bearded old man, another rather old middle-aged man spoke.

“Hmph!”

“What a guilt!”

“It’s just a big contrarian!”

“Not only did he violate the ancestral precepts, but he also did not listen to our advice.”

“We have actually stripped off all of our identities as guardians of the past, and we have to work like these ordinary villagers!”

“Today, we are going to take you down!”

“Cancel your Guardian title!”

“This time, we found a powerful gilded brigade, and I can’t take you if I don’t believe it!”

Another person came out and said sharply.

These people are almost all former defenders and the forces in the village who are still loyal to them.

After Candice took over as the Guardian, some of the policies she implemented completely offended the elders and even their resistance. Helplessly, Candice has already achieved strength.

Even if these people join forces, they are not Candice’s opponents.

Hit by Candice’s bloody wrist again and again, the old guard was almost uprooted.

“Second uncle.”

“Third Uncle.”

“Sixth Uncle.”

“It seems that I turned out to be too kind to you!”

“I know that you have always opposed me, but I didn’t expect that you would be able to unite with these gilded brigades to make a move on me!”

Candice took away the pistol in her hand and slowly swept it through the audience.

Without the slightest fear.

Even, the seniors in Candice’s mouth. I don’t even have the courage to look at her!

“Oh my God!”

“I didn’t expect such a thing to happen in Ah Ru Village.”

“Sister Candice is in danger this time.”

Lyra covered her mouth, unable to believe what she saw. Can the calm and gentle Ah Ru Village become like this?

“Ye Chen?”

Leyra was already a little flustered. She is just an ordinary student, where she has encountered this situation, she suddenly does not know what to do.

“A traveling companion in a foreign land, and this student of the Decree Academy.”

“This is just a dispute within our village, internal disputes, you two can leave, we will not embarrass you 067.”

Past Candice in front of her, the oldest old man with a white beard among the conservatives in Aru Village persuaded aloud. However, his gaze was mainly on Leyla.

It seems that he does not want to offend the Holy Council because of this.

“Don’t, you’re not interested.”

“We’re very interested!”

“Gee.”

“Female students of the Ordinance Academy.”

“And such a handsome guy in a foreign land with such a good skin.”

“How can you meet such a good product in normal times!? God knows how much Mora can be sold for? ”

“Our regiment wants it!”

The old man in Ah Ru Village’s words just fell.

One of the gilded brigades holding a knife on the right opened his mouth viciously, his eyes were malicious, and he looked at Ye Chen and Leyra unscrupulously.

He is precisely the deputy commander of this gilded brigade regiment, Dolce!

“You–”

“What about your regiment leader?”

“This time, we hired you!”

“Don’t mess around!”

The old man of Aru Village was immediately glared at by the member of this gilded brigade, stretched out his finger, and was a little trembling with anger. And that’s not even taking down Candice.

Just infighting with him?

The gang of the gilded brigade is really unreliable.

“Old fellow.”

“We’ll just take down Candice for you, you can’t manage the rest.”

“As for our regiment leader!? What are you worried about? ”

Dolce of the Gilded Brigade Regiment, choked unceremoniously.

“Hahahaha–”

Suddenly, the guys of the forty or fifty gilded brigade regiments laughed together. Now in this Aru village, they have the final say.

“Zheng–”

In the laughter of the mercenaries of the Gilded Brigade. Suddenly, there was a thunder on the flat ground! After the thunder!

The laughter that rushed to the sky stopped abruptly – all the members of the gilded brigade were stiff, their mouths were wide open, and their eyes were even tighter, and they couldn’t believe what they saw in front of them.

Even on the left side of the square, these old guards of Aru Village. They also changed their faces!

They all stared incredulously at the gilded brigade on the right side of the square.

Even Candice, who was holding a spear and not afraid, quietly listening to the conversation between the two parties in front of her, and even her eyes were always contemptuous – her expression changed!

Staring at the scene ahead, he slowly tightened his brows.

And Lai Yi’s hand that pulled Ye Chen’s sleeve suddenly tightened. She raised her head and stared closely at the purple light remaining on Ye Chen’s fingertips–thin as a mosquito groan,

“Ye Chen–”

“You, aren’t you using the power of the water element?”

Lyila’s eyes lit up with bewilderment.

Why did Ye Chen actually use the power of the thunder element!?

“Shh–”

The sound of the body falling sounded.

Dolles, deputy commander of the gilded brigade, was scorched black on his neck. The headless body fell heavily to the ground.

“Noisy.”

The thunder light on Ye Chen’s fingertips converged. There was no more sound in the village.
