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

"Pastor Lin, why don't you take a rest? There are still many of us here. If this continues, you'll get exhausted."

"Well, I'll take a rest then. I am a bit tired." Taking the water cup handed to her by a town guard, she drank it all in one gulp. The sweet spring water made Lin Xueyin smack her lips.

"Thank you."

Her smiling eyes resembled crescent moons, and her dimples were equally sweet, causing the guards maintaining order around her to touch their noses and lower their heads.

"Um, you guys go ahead with your work. I need to catch my breath for a bit before I start treating them."

Although she didn't understand why the soldiers were all bowing their heads, Lin Xueyin was very grateful for their care over the past few days.

At this moment, the line that had been maintaining order suddenly became restless, with people's discontent overflowing, yet they were powerless to do anything about the newcomers.

"You're Lin Xueyin, the pastor who suddenly appeared here?"

A man dressed in aristocratic attire, with his round belly protruding and his slightly upturned mustache stroking, stared intently at Lin Xueyin, who was resting on a stool, causing the girl, who had been in a good mood, to furrow her brows.

"That's me. May I ask how I can help you?"

Although she was unhappy with the other party's tone, the surrounding soldiers dared not speak out against his arrival, and even saluted him. Lin Xueyin understood that the other party's identity was not one she could confront head-on. As the saying goes, when you're under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. Lin Xueyin felt that she didn't need to cause trouble for herself.

"Since you are a priest, our lord has ordered that you go to the lord's manor to become our lord's personal priest."

"Huh? Are you kidding me? Go to the lord's manor? What would I do there for no reason? I need to go see my friend later. Thank you for your kindness, Lord."

As she spoke, Lin Xueyin realized that what she had said earlier sounded like she was stirring up trouble, so she decided it was better to be honest and prioritize harmony over winning people over with virtue.

"Hmph, little girl, you won't listen to reason, so you'll have to suffer the consequences. Do you think our Baron Tang can't afford to hire a little priest like you?"

"He really can't afford it." A cold voice rang out behind the man. With a mocking expression on her face, Aria slowly pushed through the crowd and walked step by step toward Lin Xueyin, who seemed somewhat at a loss.

“A priest, even one who can use the simplest healing spell, can receive a substantial salary in the empire. You, a mere steward of a baron, who gave you the audacity to come here and cause trouble for a priest?”

The Empire's most elite guards displayed their arrogance, with a dozen well-trained soldiers behind them letting out mocking laughter.

"There really are such self-righteous fools who actually think that a baron can do whatever he wants. Do they really think that barons in the empire are of such a high rank?"

"Sir, you..." Although this was an Imperial Knight, her rank was lower than that of a Baron, but she was the apprentice of one of the Four Knights of the Empire. He could afford to offend her, but he couldn't afford to offend the one behind her.

He quickly wiped away his cold sweat. He had just returned from inspecting the territory with the Baron when he heard that a priest was providing free medical treatment to everyone in the military camp. He had assumed she was some powerless, unaffiliated priest and thought he could take the opportunity to recruit her.

Then he offered it to other dukes who had territories, hoping to gain more benefits for himself. As a result, he stirred up a hornet's nest.

"Sir, we just hope..."

"Alright, I don't have time to listen to your nonsense, get out of here." With her eyebrows raised and her almond-shaped eyes wide open, Aria completely disregarded the chubby man in front of her.

"Yes, yes, I'll leave right away, I'll leave right away." As if granted a pardon, he wiped away his cold sweat and hurriedly left amidst the mocking gazes of the crowd.

"Aria, you're back. Do you want to...?"

"Xiaoxue, come with us quickly. We've made some discoveries and need your help to continue."

"Ah, ah, okay, I'll go with you right now." He glanced around at the mercenaries who were still waiting for him to treat them.

"Um, I'll go help Aria first, and then I'll treat you when I get back."

"Your Excellency, please don't be shy. Please take good care of yourself. If you need our help, we certainly won't refuse."

Lin Xueyin opened her mouth as if to say something, but Ailiya grabbed her and pulled her hurriedly into the mountains.

"We hope Miss Lin will return safely."

"Nonsense, that's for sure, Miss Lin will definitely be safe."

His words drew agreement from the crowd, but their worried gazes remained.

Forced to sit on Ailiya's white horse, they galloped wildly towards the mountains. Along the way, covered in dust, Lin Xueyin couldn't even ask any questions.

The main problem was that as soon as I opened my mouth, the cold wind on my face filled it, so I couldn't say anything. I could only close my eyes, hide in the other person's hard embrace, and feel the bumpy ride.

"We're here, Yukine, this is it."

Lin Xueyin, finally landing on the ground again, looked exhausted. "Tell me, where exactly did you take me?"

Clutching her waist, her face slightly pale, Lin Xueyin turned her eyes, looked around at the unfamiliar surroundings, and scratched her head speechlessly.

"Captain, you didn't tell Yukine at all, did you?"

Having spent quite some time together, the Imperial soldiers were all allowed to call Lin Xueyin by her name in a very intimate way. Of course, being called "Miss Lin" always made her feel rather awkward.

After all, before, he was a man, and being called "Miss" made him feel somewhat uncomfortable, especially in China, where the word "Miss" has other negative connotations.

"Haha, aren't you anxious? Aren't I anxious? After all, I feel a little guilty leaving you guys here to guard the place."

"Feeling guilty? Captain, you feel guilty? Uh... I won't say anything more. Let's talk to Yukine about this mission first."

The squad leader was joking when he saw the girl glare at him, so he quickly stopped talking. Although they usually got along well, it was better not to mess with a girl who was angry and embarrassed.

"Xueyin, we came to Yorktown mainly to investigate the hijacking of the border army's logistics supplies."

She looked at the other person with a bit of confusion. She could understand what the other person was saying, but when she thought about it more deeply, she didn't quite understand. For example, what was the necessary connection between their investigation into the robbery of the logistics department and the fact that they had dragged her here?

Noticing the bewildered look on the other person's face, Aria didn't explain further, but continued, "Originally, we suspected it was the wind wolves that had been seen here before, but we discovered that these wind wolves were being kept in captivity, so..."

"So, you brought me here? The problem is, what's the use of bringing me here? I can't be of much help to the Wind Wolf either." Lin Xueyin scratched her head. Although she was capable of helping, it was too dangerous. It would be safer to treat people's injuries in town.

In a sense, our protagonist is really very afraid of death. Other transmigrators come with the goal of becoming gods and building a harem, but this one still intends to live the kind of otaku life he used to live.

"This cave was discovered by our scouts by accident. There are not only wind wolves inside, but also some thieves. If we rush in directly, I'm worried..."

"Understood." Lin Xueyin already knew what the other party was thinking before they even finished speaking. It was just about forming a group to run a dungeon, but without a mage, it would be a bit difficult if there were only warriors and priests.

Tilting her head, Lin Xueyin glanced at the small team of several dozen people and quickly figured it out in a few seconds. With this kind of team configuration, they would definitely die if they tried to fight a boss. They didn't even have the standard warrior-priest-mage setup.

"Um, Aria, are you sure we don't need to recruit some mages to help us?"

"Master, where am I supposed to find a master now? Do you really think there are so many masters out there that they're everywhere?"

Looking at Aria with surprise, Lin Xueyin couldn't help but touch her nose, swallowing back the words, "Isn't that true? Aren't all the mages in the game terrifyingly powerful?"

That's right, that's true in the game. But in reality, it's a different story. Because the requirements for talent are very demanding, the number of mages is extremely small. Moreover, among these few mages, many are only low-level mages due to their talent, and powerful mages are even rarer.

For some of the teams outside, having even one ordinary mage is already quite an achievement; asking them to find a mage is really asking too much of them.

"Alright, Yukine, we're already thankful that we were able to find you, the priest. Do you see them? With you here, their lives have an extra layer of protection."

After a moment of silence, looking at the trust they placed in me and the unwavering determination in their expressions of protecting me, I suddenly felt a sense of responsibility weighing on my shoulders.

This is not a game. If the whole team is wiped out, it's a real wipeout. They risked their lives to trust strangers they had only known for less than a week. Lin Xueyin tremblingly took out a few gold coins from her bag.

This time, I really need to upgrade my skills. I pulled up my skill bar, looked at the grayed-out skills, and then at the gold coins shimmering in my hand. I smiled bitterly. I thought I could save up some money to improve my life, but it all disappeared in just a few days.

As the golden light kept flashing in her eyes, Lin Xueyin shook her head in distress. "Ailiya, do you have any money left? I need you to lend me some."

"Borrow money?" Looking at Lin Xueyin, who was blushing slightly, with a puzzled expression, he didn't say much, but simply handed her his purse. "It's not much, but you can use it."

Lin Xueyin took out a few more gold coins and handed them back, saying, "Don't worry, I'll definitely pay you back when I have the money."

With a slight upturn of her lips, she said, "Xueyin, take it and use it. You don't have to pay it back, right? I can afford to pay you back."

She was met with a moment of silence, and then Lin Xueyin let out a long sigh of relief, a relaxed and confident smile spreading across her face.

The skills are already maxed out. Even if they go in, as long as these people can protect themselves, they'll definitely come out alive and kicking. Don't think that a holy priest can't defy the heavens.

"Aria, go in. This time, I guarantee that as long as you don't leave the group, you'll be fine. If anything happens, bring the corpses with you and don't leave anything behind."

He paused slightly at Lin Xueyin's words, but did not ask any further questions. He patted her head and said, "Alright, since our little pastor has said so, let's not let her down. Everyone, fight bravely against the enemy."

He realized that the other party had taken his words as mere boasting and not taken them seriously. However, the skills he had previously acquired were his foundation. Although there weren't many, they were all at a relatively high level, which would definitely ensure his healing output was reliable.

"The Lone Wolf's Den?"

As Lin Xueyin followed the group inside, she glanced at a broken wooden plank on the side of the cave, then turned and walked into the dark cave with them without looking back.

Volume 1: The Transmigrated Nanny - Chapter 7: The Lone Wolf's Cave (Part 2)

The cave was dark and damp, filled with the distinctive stench of wind wolves, causing Lin Xueyin to frown, cover her nose, and carefully examine the slippery walls around her.

"oops."

Focused too much on the wall above, Lin Xueyin forgot about her footing and slipped forward. If it weren't for Ailiya's support, a tragedy might have occurred.

"Thank you, Arya. It's so cramped here, are the wolves really here?"

“Yes, it’s cramped for us, but it’s quite large for those wind wolves.” As she spoke, Lin Xueyin suddenly frowned.

"Yukine, is there a problem?"

"Aria, you said your scouts discovered this place and found many bandits here, is that right?"

Seeing Aria nod, Lin Xueyin's unease grew. A sudden flash of inspiration led her to discover the biggest problem: if this was a place where humans and wolves lived together, then this place could only be the entrance and exit for wolves. What about the humans?

Furthermore, a wolf's nose is not just for show; how could it not detect the scout's entry? If it did detect it but hadn't taken any action, then there's only one possibility.

"Holy Word: Redemption." With hands in a prayer position, his entire body radiated a holy light, which quickly shone upon the entire army, enveloping them in holy halos.

"Xueyin, what's wrong?"

"Don't say any more. The enemy is probably already waiting for us at the exit. Now that we have the shield, let's rush out."

Touching the almost tangible shield on her body, Aria looked at the girl in front of her in shock. She was actually a holy-level priest, a rare existence even in the empire.

Now was not the time to overthink things. Knowing that time was of the essence, Aria shouted, and everyone quickened their pace, completely abandoning their previous cautiousness.

With the shield in place, why should they be afraid of those rabble outside? Just as everyone was moving forward, they heard Lin Xueyin's clear voice ring out again.

"Discipline - Feather of Heaven".

His body flashed away with a light blue light, appearing extremely light, and his movements became much faster.

Faced with this situation, everyone was full of confidence for the battle to come. First, they increased their defense, then their movement speed. If they could increase their attack power, that would be perfect, but that was just wishful thinking.

Soon, facing a barrage of blue wind blades, all the warriors rushed out of the narrow passage.

Sure enough, seeing the numerous bandits and wind wolves already on high alert, Ailiya looked thankfully at Lin Xueyin, who was praying beside her. If she hadn't asked Lin Xueyin to come with her, they would probably have been wiped out.

With each prayer, the soldiers who had been injured by the broken shields were all restored to their best condition, which dealt a heavy blow to the morale of the bandits.

"Fire arrows! Let the Wind Wolves charge in and kill all these imperial lackeys!"

"Yukine, if you come with me, I will definitely..."
