Chapter 466: As long as there is expectation, there will definitely be a response
In a small village on the border between Midlan and Yoda, there is an atmosphere of death and despair.
This small village may have once been full of vitality, where the villagers worked from sunrise to sunset, leading a simple and peaceful life.
However, the smoke of war swept in mercilessly, breaking the tranquility here.
At this moment, some Yoda soldiers were carrying out the final search in this village that seemed to have been abandoned long ago.
They were originally part of Yoda's army, but were dispersed during a battle against the combined forces of Mithran and the Hall of the King.
Now, having been hungry for several days, they were like stray dogs, searching for food in the village.
"Gan!"
A Yoda soldier kicked away an empty can and complained:
“There’s nothing in this lousy place!”
"I think this place has been looted many times. All the villagers have fled. There is nothing left."
"Squeak!"
At this moment, a tremor alerted the leading officer, Yuda. His eyes instantly became sharp, and he quickly walked towards the place where the sound came from.
It was a shabby wooden bed. Officer Yoda came to the bed and ordered coldly:
"Move the bed away!"
Two soldiers immediately stepped forward and laboriously moved the heavy wooden bed aside. As the wooden bed was moved away, a dark cellar entrance was exposed to everyone.
Officer Yoda's eyes flashed with surprise, and he ordered loudly:
"You two, go down and take a look!"
The two soldiers looked at each other and hesitated for a moment, but seeing the fierce look in Officer Yoda's eyes, they had to bite the bullet and go down.
After a while, screams of women and shouts of soldiers were heard from the cellar.
"Hey, there's a bunch of people here!"
"Bring them up here!"
Soon, more than a dozen people came up from the cellar entrance one after another.
They included men, women, young and old, all dressed in rags, with eyes full of fear and despair.
The Yoda soldiers drove them to the corner. The Yoda officer walked to the front of the crowd and shouted:
"Where is the food?"
The villagers stood in the corner trembling, their eyes full of fear.
One of the older villagers mustered up his courage and said in a trembling voice:
"Sir, we...we have been robbed many times here, and we have no food left."
"Nonsense! Do you think I'm easy to fool?"
Officer Yoda was furious. He rushed forward and gave the villager a loud slap in the face.
"How did you survive without food?"
Seeing that no one spoke, Officer Yoda's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and threatened:
"You won't tell me, right? I'll give you five minutes. After five minutes, I'll ask you one by one. Whoever can't answer will be killed."
When the villagers heard this, they lowered their heads, not daring to look at Officer Yoda, and a tense atmosphere spread in the house.
Soon, five minutes passed. Officer Yoda walked up to a young villager and asked fiercely:
"Where's the food?"
"I do not know."
As soon as the young villager finished speaking, Officer Yoda's sword pierced his chest without hesitation. The villager's eyes widened, and then he fell to the ground in pain, and his blood stained the ground red.
Officer Yoda showed no mercy. He ordered his soldiers:
"Stab him a few more times, don't let him play dead and get away with it."
The soldiers carried out the order with a grin, and the young villager soon fell silent.
In this way, Officer Yoda asked five or six people in a row, but they all said they didn't know. His face became uglier and uglier, and his anger grew stronger.
In a fit of rage, his eyes suddenly fell on a little girl.
She had wheat-colored skin and unusually short hair, and if she hadn't been wearing a skirt, Officer Yoda wouldn't have been able to tell she was a girl.
Officer Yoda grabbed the girl, her body struggling violently in his grasp, her eyes filled with fear.
Officer Yoda then threw her onto the bed:
"Since you won't tell me, I'll use this kid to vent my anger!"
Officer Yoda showed an evil smile on his face. Seeing this, the little girl's parents immediately knelt down and begged for mercy:
"She is less than eight years old and doesn't know anything. Please have mercy on her and let her go!"
They kept knocking their hands on the ground, and blood soon flowed from their foreheads.
"Mercy? It's mercy enough that I didn't kill her!"
Officer Yoda pinched the little girl and took off his pants, with a ferocious expression on his face, and said:
"Today I will show you how powerful I am..."
The little girl's eyes were filled with tears and she cried out in despair.
"Oh no!"
Just then, a Yoda soldier rushed in from outside the door, his face full of panic.
"The Midlanders are attacking!"
"what!"
Officer Yoda's eyes widened in disbelief, but the large number of horse hoof sounds he heard afterwards made him immediately realize that he was very likely to have encountered the Knights of Midlan.
"Damn it!"
He cursed in a low voice, and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes. Just as he was about to pull up his pants and run away, he suddenly heard a shout of killing from the yard outside the house, and then the door of the house was kicked open, and several White Lion Knights rushed in, shouting:
"Don't even move!"
Officer Yoda immediately held the little girl and a group of villagers hostage with his saber. Amid the villagers and the girl's cries of pain, his voice was filled with despair and madness:
"If anyone comes over here again, I'll kill them!"
Just when the two sides were in a stalemate, a villager held hostage by Officer Yoda suddenly took advantage of him and tried to seize his weapon.
Officer Yoda was so nervous that he didn't notice at all. The villagers suddenly reached out for their swords with trembling hands and hit him by surprise, but he was too weak to take it away because he had been hungry for several days.
Upon seeing this, the other villagers immediately stepped forward to help, and several hands reached out to Officer Yoda at the same time.
Upon seeing this, the White Lion Knights immediately rushed forward and pushed away the villagers. One of the knights punched Officer Yoda in the abdomen several times and took away his weapon. Then several White Lion Knights beat Officer Yoda until his face was swollen like a pig's head, until he was no longer able to resist.
"Tie him up and take him away!"
A White Lion Knight shouted loudly, and two White Lion Knights quickly stepped forward and dragged Officer Yoda from the ground. The officer was so fierce just now, but now he was like a defeated rooster, with no power to resist, and he kept cursing:
"You damned Midlanders, I won't let you go..."
After the Yoda threat was gone, the girl's parents immediately rushed over to hug her and comforted her:
"Don't be afraid, Casca, mom and dad are here..."
The girl snuggled tightly in her parents' arms, tears still flowing. Her body was still shaking, and it was obvious that she had not recovered from the fear just now. The father gently stroked her hair and said softly:
"Don't be afraid, baby, it's all over."
The mother hugged her daughter tightly, as if if she let go, her daughter would be in danger again.
Seeing the three people reunited after such a great disaster, the White Lion Knights also showed a look of relief on their faces. Just as they were about to leave, the elderly villager stepped forward and asked:
"Thank you so much, my Lords. We don't know how to repay you."
"That's not necessary. It's our duty to clear out invaders from invading our country. We'll go wherever there are invaders."
