Becoming a wet nurse is not the end of the story.

She was like a lamb to the slaughter on their chopping block, at their mercy. Her graceful figure and pretty face were the most beautiful sight they had ever seen. If they could, they would naturally not want to let her go easily, especially since she was very likely still a virgin.

"So, are you really that sure you've got me cornered?" Lin Xueyin raised an eyebrow as she heard the other party's increasingly shameless remarks.

Hearing the girl's utterly presumptuous words, the bandits burst into laughter. "You really think someone will come to save you?"

Seeing the other person tilting their head and looking at them with a strange expression, the masked bandit leader revealed a hint of smugness, "We have completely covered this place with silencing magic."

"Oh, I see. So, no matter what sound I make here, no one outside will hear it, right?"

For some reason, seeing the girl opposite him with a strange, cold smile made the bandit leader feel increasingly uneasy. However, the only enemy in front of them was Lin Xueyin; they couldn't find any other people.

The mockery of the crowd and the calmness of the person opposite him kept flashing through his mind. At this moment, the bandit leader realized that the other party, as a girl, did indeed behave somewhat strangely. Even when he suddenly appeared, she remained very calm, as if she knew he would appear.

Everything was done so naturally, yet it was precisely this naturalness that made people unable to help but pay attention. If the other party wasn't a fool, then they were truly fearless.

"Everyone, hurry up and move forward side by side. This woman is stalling for time. She has probably already found help. Let's not waste any more time."

Before he could finish speaking, the bandit leader had already drawn his knife and slashed at the girl standing opposite him. Since she was unwilling to surrender, he would beat her until she could no longer resist.

Then, as if they had witnessed something horrifying, everyone's jaws nearly dropped to the ground. With just one kick, the leader who had charged forward was sent flying back at an even greater speed.

Completely forgetting what kind of beautiful sight would be revealed beneath that beautiful leg the other person kicked out with, the reality that those delicate little feet could possibly kick back a big, burly man was already hard to accept.

"Oh, right, no matter what sounds I make here, they won't be able to hear them outside, right?"

Looking at the other party's adorable smile, the bandit leaders silently uttered two words in their hearts—devil.

The two full moons still hung high in the night sky. From the outside, Sacred Heart Hospital appeared as quiet as ever. However, no one knew what would happen there tonight.

Volume One: The Transmigrated Wet Nurse - Chapter Twenty-Eight: Interrogation and Indignation

The first rays of sunlight in the morning dispelled the darkness from the earth, and a slightly chilly morning breeze blew through the quiet town, as if it had been awakened, allowing the town to begin its day's hustle and bustle once again.

However, what should have been a monotonous opening was marred by some discordant elements today. When the mercenaries and townspeople arrived at Sacred Heart Hospital, the first thing they noticed was not the still-closed gate, but rather a row of men hanging above it.

Of course, many people know that Pastor Lin is a very kind person, and he is not arrogant when dealing with civilians and lower-ranking mercenaries. He treats them with equality.

Most importantly, her daily life is very simple and regular, and yet these men were hung up at the entrance of Sacred Heart Hospital. This is simply...

Suddenly, time seemed to freeze, and everyone remembered where these men were hanging. Worry began to surge within them.

"Pastor Lin, Pastor Lin, are you there? Are you still there...?"

The pounding on the door was no longer as leisurely as before. The crowd gathered at the entrance of Sacred Heart Hospital, pounding heavily on the tightly closed door, and some were even preparing to use tools to break it open.

"Um, wait a moment, I'll start right away..."

Lin Xueyin shouted loudly inside the house, but her shouts did not reach the ears of the excited crowd outside. With a loud "bang," Lin Xueyin watched helplessly as her front door was smashed to pieces.

Staring longingly at a man whose entire body was enveloped in earthy yellow battle aura, with his unsightly dark green long hair, he wished Lin Xueyin would give him a magic staff right now.

She was wearing a pair of cute little feet in open-toed slippers at home. Although she wasn't dressed haphazardly, she wasn't wearing her usual gray-brown priest's robe either. Instead, she was dressed in a very cute home outfit.

A pair of shapely, fair legs were exposed to everyone's eyes, and the people who had rushed in belatedly realized that things were not as they had thought.

"Um, um."

The slice of freshly fried bread that was being bitten into fell to the ground uncontrollably as its owner opened their cute little mouth in surprise.

"What are you all doing...?"

So, after everyone offered their own explanations, Lin Xueyin finally understood that these people were worried about her being sexually assaulted and, more importantly, about her safety, so they rushed in without thinking, resulting in this mess.

Hmm, this group is here, so...

"Yukino, Yukino, are you alright? You weren't... by them..."

As the words "I knew it" flashed through her mind, Lin Xueyin was tightly embraced by a piece of hard armor. Although she felt somewhat relieved, the plate armor was really painful to the touch, and most importantly, it was very cold.

"Aria, don't do this, it's very..."

"By the way, did those stinky men do anything to you? Did they do anything weird to you?" As he spoke, he reached out to conduct a physical examination on Lin Xueyin.

"I said, Aria, are you crazy? There are so many people here." She pressed down on the other person's hand tightly, preventing it from landing on her at this moment.

Suddenly realizing that this was not a good time, Arya coughed twice and looked around. She saw two Yorktown guards looking at her awkwardly not far behind her.

"Well, we're just here to investigate and find out what happened."

"Ah, ah, it's like this. I was resting last night when these people suddenly rushed in. They probably thought they had the victory in their grasp, so I used magic to wipe them all out."

Lin Xueyin didn't go into details about the specific magic or how it was done. Aria, who knew about the eerie nature of Lin Xueyin, could only roll her eyes helplessly. This girl really knew how to lie to the death.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. If he just said he would knock them down one by one with a staff, wouldn't that terrify these people who have never seen anything like this before? When I saw it myself, wasn't I so scared that my jaw almost dropped to the ground?

They barged into the house with malicious intent. This is absolutely intolerable. "But why didn't anyone hear anything when they came last night? Logically, you should have called for help, right?"

"What, you still don't believe Yukine?"

"Exactly, would Pastor Lin really lie to us? Are you guards trying to protect those prisoners?"

The crowd's outrage left the two guards standing there somewhat bewildered. They wanted to say something, but couldn't, as the crowd had already silenced them.

"Everyone, please be quiet. These guards are just trying to find out what's going on. It's not what you think."

The loud shouts finally calmed people down, stopping the bombardment of the two pitiful guards and giving them a slight sigh of relief. They looked gratefully at the girl who was a little uncomfortable from shouting so loudly.

"Actually, when they came, they said that no one could hear me even if I shouted at the top of my lungs, let alone come to save me. They said they used a silencing spell to completely cover this place."

"Silence spell?" Aria raised her voice eight octaves instantly. This spell was said to prevent mages from chanting. The tension that had just been building in her heart eased slightly after thinking about Lin Xueyin's explosive output. As for the others, probably very few people knew about the special effects of this silence spell.

Of course, those who knew didn't intend to speak out. At least, the people from the surrounding large mercenary groups didn't want to offend a powerful, and potentially brilliant, priest over such a trivial matter.

"Silence magic? It seems these people came prepared. Let's investigate their background first. Most of the town's residents have never seen these people before."

"I...I know them."

At that moment, a timid voice rang out from the crowd, and a gaunt man with bandages on his arms stepped out, his reddened eyes filled with hatred.

"They are from the Greedy Wolf Stronghold. Our adventure team was ambushed by them yesterday. In the end, out of the ten of us, only I survived. My arm was injured and is probably ruined."

"It's Greedy Wolf Village again."

"That's right. What exactly do these people want? Not only are they disturbing our lives, but now they're even reaching into our Pastor Lin's territory. We can't tolerate this, we absolutely can't tolerate it."

"Our Fiery Fox Mercenary Group hereby declares that we will lead everyone in an attack on Greedy Wolf Stronghold. We absolutely cannot allow them to continue to act with impunity."

"We, the Krulina Mercenary Group, agree."

“Our Jik mercenary group agrees.”

"Magna Mercenary Group agrees."

Listening to the opinions of one mercenary group after another, Lin Xueyin couldn't help but touch her nose. It seemed she had stirred up a hornet's nest. However, if you're going to watch the show, you might as well make things worse.

Volume 1: The Transmigrated Wet Nurse - Chapter 29: The Wrath of the Greedy Wolf Stronghold

The sight of their own men being hung outside the second-floor wall, swaying in the wind, filled the people of Tanlang Village, who had been terrorizing the area, with rage.

Revenge, yes, that town needs a bloodbath to teach them what they did wrong. But before that, I should also have a proper talk with the person I need to talk to.

The giant, muscular man had a bare upper body covered in well-developed muscles, and countless scars were exposed in a grotesque manner as his body moved.

He kicked open the door of a secluded wooden cabin, his large, bell-like eyes glaring fiercely at the man inside, whose entire body was covered by a cloak. In his mind, this man was like a rat hiding in a gutter, constantly using schemes and tricks to achieve his ulterior motives.

What are you doing here?

The deep yet calm voice rang out at this moment, further fueling the burly man's already burning anger.

"It was you who sent one of my squads to kidnap that female pastor in York."

It sounded like a question, but the harsh tone was full of accusation. The other party had no intention of asking questions and directly pinned the blame on this person.

"That's right. What? They brought that woman here. They're so slow. Is that woman very pretty? I'm not interested in her. You can keep her as your toy or sell her. It's up to you."

“Sell me? I’ll sell you out! Do you know that the people you called over have all been hung in the woods outside the town and killed? Not a single one of them is alive.”

Thinking of the newly acquired Xiao Xiao, the man's heart was completely filled with anger. If it weren't for the fact that this person had some special mission, he would have killed him right now to avenge his subordinate.

"Oh? I didn't expect that little priest to be so wary. But are you afraid, my chieftain?"

Although you can't see the expression under the hood, you can still hear the strong mockery in his tone.

Fear, yes, fear. When he heard the message from the informant inside, he broke out in a cold sweat. If the Imperial Legion came here, he could just hide in the mountains and keep quiet for a while.

However, if it's a large mercenary group, or even a super mercenary group, combined with an adventure team, then even if you hide in the mountains, you can't guarantee you won't be discovered. This is what is meant by "snakes have snake paths, and rats have rat trails."

Fortunately, someone suppressed his anger; otherwise, he might have really died at the hands of this scoundrel.

"Hmph, I may be scared, but the entire town is united, and the mercenary groups have spontaneously set up sentries nearby. I don't want you to make any further moves against that priest."

"No, of course not, because many things have already been prepared. What awaits that priest is only endless darkness. Hehehe."

"Hmph, I hope what you're saying is true. I'll make things clear with my men and won't let you command them anymore."

After saying that, he turned and left, slamming the door he had kicked open shut behind him, leaving behind a cloud of dust and a low, ambiguous laugh.

The scene returns to the small town. Lin Xueyin, seeing the excited crowd, suddenly feels that she can take this opportunity to thoroughly investigate what exactly is going on at Greedy Wolf Village.

The language we saw in the cave earlier, including words like "greed" and "fortress," most likely refers to this Greedy Wolf Fortress.

When Lin Xueyin learned that the people who attacked her were from the Greedy Wolf Stronghold, she began to suspect the existence of these so-called bandits. They had been here all along, and if they didn't have any powerful backers, how could they have escaped so many imperial army sieges?

“Let’s gather our forces now and crush that wicked Greedy Wolf Stronghold. It’s one thing for them to mess around normally, but this time they actually dared to lay a hand on Pastor Lin. They’re simply courting death.”

Bored, they watched these mercenaries who clearly had ulterior motives. If the enemy's target wasn't them, they wouldn't care about the lives of those people. The importance of a priest stationed here to them was self-evident.

Even if you can't be moved to join their mercenary group when you learn that someone wants to harm you, you can still gain the favor of a priest. No matter how you look at it, this is a sure-fire way to make money.

"Hey, everyone, calm down, calm down."

Upon receiving the news, Victor, who was late, quickly came to the front of the group.

"Everyone, calm down and listen to me."

Finally, everyone's attention was on him. Victor took a deep breath. "With so many of us going, let's not even talk about when we'll find Greedy Wolf Stronghold. Even if we do find it, attacking Greedy Wolf Stronghold won't be easy. Everyone, calm down first."

"The main problem is that with so many of us going into the mountains, we're too big a target. These bandits live in the mountains and are very familiar with the terrain. We might end up getting ambushed instead. I think Pastor Lin wouldn't be at ease if there were any unnecessary sacrifices."

It sounded like it made sense, but the mercenaries weren't so easily convinced. "We can send scouts in first, and once we find the destination of Greedy Wolf Stronghold, we'll naturally find a way to break in."

"Well, actually, the Imperial Army had already located the location of Greedy Wolf Stronghold, but it was just an empty stronghold. They found nothing there, which is why the Empire's repeated raids have all failed."

The guards who knew some inside information timidly raised their hands and poured out everything they knew.
