To gather intelligence, you first need to have relevant personnel.
They traveled a long way to get here, spending money and energy along the way.
When we arrived at our destination, you're telling me everyone's gone?
"I can't say the specific reasons, and even if you ask me, I won't know, because I have half Yangyang Village blood. That's why I learned a few days ago that the people of Yangyang Village have moved away."
"If you want to explore the secrets of the dangerous village, you can walk around and take a look around the village."
"But we absolutely must not destroy the village."
Zhuang Nan had met countless people who wanted to uncover the secrets of Weiju Village, but in the end, they only managed to discover one or two secrets and were unable to fully explore them.
Many people have even lost their lives because of this.
Although Zhuang Nan is a resident of Yangyang Village, only a few elderly people know the village's most crucial secret.
He is not qualified to know.
Asharuya glanced around. The houses and furnishings here were very old and simple, standing out starkly against the advanced and modern residences outside.
It felt like stepping back into ancient times, hundreds of years ago, with almost no trace of modernity.
Since there was no one there, Asha'ruya decided to find someone herself.
She glanced at Su Lan beside her, and as if remembering something, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.
"Brother Lan Shu, shall we explore together? Maybe we can discover a big secret."
"If Brother Lan Shu finds any important information, I'll give him a generous reward~~~"
As Asha Ruya spoke, she moved closer to Su Lan, her behavior somewhat ambiguous.
She had been keeping an eye on Su Lan ever since the team was formed.
Whether it was before the undead awoke yesterday, when there was no need to conceal their presence with ashes, or the super-level light and space magic master beside them, or even being able to command a super-level magic master to keep watch for them at night.
All of this shows that Su Lan is not simple.
In fact, she had been pondering which of all the aristocratic families in the Great Xia Dynasty had the surname Lan.
As someone who was practically an expert on the Great Xia Dynasty, she had learned about most of the powerful families and clans in the Great Xia Dynasty through special channels before setting off, yet she couldn't find a single family that could send out a second-level super-rank mage.
She once suspected that the powerful woman beside Su Lan was hired through the [Alien] Hunters.
But that doesn't make sense either!
As a newly emerging superpower in the Great Xia Dynasty, the [Alien] Hunter's Guild should not be so intimate and trusting of that woman if she was hired by Su Lan.
After all, how can you completely trust someone you hire from outside?
Asha'ruya didn't even fully trust the two fanatical new followers around her, let alone the people she had hired.
Ultimately, unable to find any clues, Asha's Ruya came to two conclusions.
Either Su Lan comes from a secret family that even her intelligence network couldn't find.
Or perhaps, the name Su Lan mentioned was a pseudonym.
His surname isn't actually Lan!
It's not called the Blue Book!
The name he gave himself, like the one he used for introductions, was made up on the spot.
Thinking of this, her beautiful eyes beneath the black veil became even more profound.
At this moment, Su Lan watched as Asha Ruya approached her, her eyebrows and eyes merely twitching.
A gentle breeze carries a refreshing fragrance that fills the nostrils, a unique blend of feminine scent and vanilla aroma.
Although Asha's face could not be seen, even through the veil, one could sense the breathtaking beauty of the woman before them, whose breath was as sweet as orchids, hidden beneath the black veil.
Her voice and body odor alone are enough to make many novice men obsessed and turn into simps.
However, this didn't have much effect on Su Lan.
"Really? But I believe in getting paid before I work. Why don't you just pay me in advance? I'll do my best to help you explore the secrets of the dangerous village."
Asharuya looked at Su Lan, who was looking at her with such sincerity, her gaze seemingly trying to see through the black veil to reveal her true face.
She paused for a moment, then let out a silvery laugh.
"What kind of reward does Brother Lan Shu want?"
"That depends on what kind of reward Miss Ye can offer me."
Will Blue Book Brother put in different amounts of effort depending on the reward?
"That's right, I'll decide how much I'll help you based on the amount of compensation."
Upon hearing this, Asha's lips twitched.
She never expected Su Lan to be so shameless.
At the Parthenon, whenever she showed even the slightest inclination toward something, countless sycophants and devotees would do anything for her.
Not to mention the simple task of exploring the secrets of the dangerous village.
She just wanted more people to have more strength, but she didn't expect to be asked for payment in advance.
The amount of help the other party will provide will depend on the value of the reward.
"Then... would you like to see my face under the veil, Brother Lan Shu?"
Perhaps it was because Su Lan hadn't seen her stunning beauty beneath the veil that she wasn't captivated by her looks and was able to speak so confidently.
She planned to let Su Lan taste the sweetness first.
However, Su Lan's next words struck her like a thunderbolt.
"I don't look. Anyone who doesn't dare to show their true face is either ugly or extremely ugly."
"Otherwise, why cover your face with a veil? Does anyone think that not concealing their stunning beauty will trigger a world magic war?"
"Especially those with nice voices who never show their faces, if the modeling were even slightly better, they wouldn't have to hide their faces."
"You're showing me your face, are you trying to disgust me while also hoping to get something for free?"
"How cruel you are!"
After saying that, Su Lan took a few steps back and walked directly towards the village, leaving the stunned Asha Ruya standing there. Her two attendants beside her opened their mouths wide, wanting to say something but not daring to speak for a moment.
Asha'ruya: "!!!"
It's going to explode!
Asha'ruya felt like she was about to explode after Su Lan's retort!
Especially when she heard Su Lan say that she was ugly, that she didn't dare to show her true face because she would be awful in the light, and that she was a freeloader, she was furious!
Even someone as quick-witted and eloquent as her usually is at a loss for words.
By the time she realized what was happening and wanted to retort to Su Lan, she found that Su Lan had already disappeared around the corner, leaving only a gentle breeze that made the veil covering her face sway softly.
"You go and investigate first, I'll be there shortly."
Asha's icy words came from beneath her veil, causing her two angry and fearful attendants to leave.
At this moment, an extremely powerful aura enveloped this small area, putting them under immense pressure.
Upon hearing Asha's instructions, the two attendants felt as if they had been granted a pardon. After bowing respectfully, they immediately ran off to carry out their mission.
"I'm not angry...I'm not angry!!!!"
Now, Asharuya wished she could tie Su Lan to her front and pull down her veil so that the other party could keep an eye on her for ten days or half a month.
Then, they overwhelmed Su Lan with massive resources, forcing him to dictate a legendary essay of millions of words praising his own appearance!
The more I think about it, the angrier I get.
She was so angry that she felt chest pain.
"This is outrageous! When I get back, I'll dig up your secrets and make sure you broadcast that legendary chapter online 24/7, spreading it to the whole world word for word!"
