Volume 2: The Church of Light Chapter 244: Bullying
Lin Xiao looked at them in astonishment, his eyes swept across their faces, and he immediately understood.
The so-called reinforcements are just a show.
He fell silent for a while.
Seeing that Lin Xiao didn't say anything, the members of Team 2 were too lazy to pay attention to him. One of the members saw the young man with latent abilities next to him and teased him, "Qian Qing, why do you look constipated? Did you have an argument with someone?"
"snort."
Qian Qing rolled his eyes: "These guys have no gratitude at all, they really deserve to die."
"Oh?" The man laughed and looked at Xu Shen and Lou Haiyin: "Did you have a fight with Qian Qing?"
Lou Haiyin saw the other person's smiling expression, but it felt like a fake smile, so she quickly shook her head and said, "We didn't quarrel, it was just a small misunderstanding."
"Oh?" The man's smile faded, and he said indifferently: "It's better that you didn't quarrel, otherwise we don't mind reducing the number of rescue targets by two more."
After these words were spoken, Lou Haiyin and Lin Xiao's faces changed color.
Such straightforward words, actually said to my face?
Seeing the expressions of disbelief on the two people's faces, this man remained indifferent. The other team members around him also turned a blind eye and looked calm, as if they didn't think there was anything wrong.
When Lou Haiyin and Lin Xiao saw this scene, their faces looked a little ugly, but they dared not say anything.
Just because someone dares to say it, that doesn't mean they don't dare to do it.
It's just that they had unnecessary expectations.
As for taking this to the Queen Ant to complain... it's meaningless.
What can you do if people say you made it up?
Instead, they will be labeled as ungrateful, and other teams will be hesitant to come to the rescue when they are in danger in the future.
They are all members of the Royal Guard, but they are not required to love each other. It is obvious that they have no intention of having any deep friendship with them and do not care about offending them.
As the three of them remained silent, the members of Team 2 ignored them and started talking about other things.
Some were talking about where to eat and drink when they returned.
Some were talking about the scenery here.
Others were talking about Captain Wang’s abilities.
Only Xu Shen and the other two sat together silently, without saying a word.
"Captain, we did see a shell in the town, destroying things aimlessly." A scout who had left earlier returned and said.
Captain Xi Changlin, who was sitting on a stone chair, nodded: "Be careful, don't go too deep."
"good."
After saying this, the reconnaissance team sneaked into the town again.
"With Captain Wang's ability, everything will be fine." Lin Xiao saw the gloomy expressions of Xu Shen and Lou Haiyin, and felt that they were worried about the safety of the captain and others, so he whispered to comfort them.
Lou Haiyin glanced at him, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and finally he hummed.
Something is bound to happen...and something has already happened, she said silently in her heart.
"I hope so." Xu Shen sighed.
Wait about a quarter of an hour.
Xu Shen looked around from time to time. He was waiting for Maeve to return, but he hadn't seen her yet. He couldn't help but wonder, could she have left?
But after thinking about it, he felt that it was unlikely, after all, Maeve had been with him for so long.
At this time, Xu Shen saw a white flying horse flying in the air in the distance.
Queen Ant!
Xu Shen's heart shuddered, and he looked around again, seeming to find nothing. He lowered his head and played with the weeds between his legs, pulling them out and poking them into the soil again.
"The ants are coming later." Someone said at this time.
Everyone was in awe. They looked up and saw the Queen Ant appear in the same world, riding a white horse above their heads.
"What's going on here?" The queen ant sat on the horse, wearing silver armor, looking majestic.
"They said there were two A-level ones." Xi Changlin quickly stood up from the stone chair and said respectfully.
"According to the top leaders of the Haitang Brotherhood who ambushed us, the wall cracking incident here is related to another king. They said that we have more than one king in Termite City." Xu Shen also hurriedly stood up to report.
Hearing Xu Shen's words, Xi Changlin glanced at him coldly out of the corner of his eye.
The queen ant narrowed her eyes slightly under her silver helmet, and when she saw Xu Shen and the other three guards, she asked, "Where is your captain?"
"We're still inside, we've been separated." Xu Shen said.
"Reporting to the Queen Ant, there are two A-level creatures inside. We can't rescue them, but I have sent people in to search." Xi Changlin immediately took over the conversation.
The queen ant nodded slightly: "Okay, you guys wait here, I'll go in and take a look."
After saying that, he pulled the rope and rode the white horse into the town.
After the queen ant's back left, everyone raised their heads and straightened their backs.
"Huh, that kid is quite good at interrupting others." A member of the 2nd team sneered.
"Who knows? Their captain is most likely gone. He hasn't come out for such a long time. He probably wants to grab the credit and become the captain." Another person sneered.
You are really right... Lou Haiyin thought to himself, silently giving a thumbs up to the person who spoke.
"How can you talk like that? We are just reporting the truth. Is there anything wrong with that?" Lin Xiao couldn't stand their ridicule and couldn't help but say.
"From now on, when our captain is around, don't speak unless you are told to." Another person said with a cold attitude, as if giving an order, directly setting rules for Xu Shen and others.
Lin Xiao was a little annoyed, but seeing their unfriendly looks, he finally gritted his teeth and swallowed his anger.
Xi Changlin sat back on the stone chair and said to Xu Shen, "You, come here."
Lin Xiao and Lou Haiyin's expressions changed slightly. Lin Xiao looked at him nervously, while Lou Haiyin looked at Xu Shen nervously.
They were both worried that the other party would start fighting if they disagreed.
Xu Shen frowned, and suddenly felt that calling for reinforcements was a bit troublesome. Instead of providing reinforcements, it only caused trouble for him.
"Boy, I told you to come over here, didn't you hear me?" Qian Qing had disliked Xu Shen for a long time and immediately scolded him.
Xu Shen paused for a moment, then slowly walked towards the other party.
whoosh!
A stone suddenly ricocheted and hit Xu Shen's cheek.
Xu Shen shook his head slightly and dodged the stone just before it hit his face. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Xi Changlin in front of him.
Xi Changlin raised his eyebrows slightly, obviously surprised that Xu Shen actually avoided it.
"Interesting, what's your ability?" Xi Changlin put down his finger that was flicking stones and asked calmly.
"What do you mean?" Xu Shen said with a serious face.
"I want to teach you a lesson." Xi Changlin sat on a stone chair with his legs crossed, looking elegant. "I don't like the look in your eyes. You'd better change your expression."
"Captain, don't be too arrogant. The queen ant is inside." Lin Xiao said angrily. Xu Shen had helped him before, so he stood up to persuade him.
"That's right, we didn't provoke you." Lou Haiyin also said. She had already pledged allegiance to Xu Shen, and if a real fight broke out, she knew she wouldn't be able to escape.
Xi Changlin didn't say anything, as if he didn't hear what the two said. He just looked at Xu Shen quietly.
Xu Shen saw the emotions gathering in his calm eyes, and his expression also calmed down. He no longer pretended and just looked at him quietly.
Xi Changlin suddenly laughed.
"You are so brave." Xi Changlin looked at Xu Shen with a smile: "You are still young, and you still have a long life ahead of you. You have to live it slowly."
Xu Shen looked at him deeply, said nothing, and turned away.
"Captain, let me teach him a lesson." A team member behind him couldn't stand Xu Shen's arrogant attitude and was about to take action.
Xi Changlin raised his hand to stop him without saying anything.
The queen ant might come back at any time, and he didn't want her to see this scene. He had wanted to teach Xu Shen a small lesson and let the matter pass, but he was avoided. Then he could only let the other party remember this lesson forever.
I've been given a chance, you can't blame me... Xi Changlin thought to himself.
At this moment, a loud roar suddenly came from the town.
It was like a meteorite hitting the ground. The people standing in the ruins did not feel the actual shaking, but they could see with their own eyes that the buildings in front of them were shaking and the walls were cracking!
There was no doubt that a great battle was taking place inside, and it was happening in reality.
Immediately, everyone returned to reality from the world of ruins at the same time.
As soon as I landed in reality, I felt the aftermath of the shock coming from under my feet.
