The First Order-Chapter 1139 - What are they crying about?

Chen Jingshu had a very vague impression of her organization’s founder. It was not that she did not pay attention to him before, but that the information surrounding him was deliberately obscured.

The bounty hunters on the fringe of the organization were not allowed to know the name of their founder.

It was not that there was some kind of hierarchy within the organization. Chen Jingshu’s brother had once told her this was actually to protect the organization and its fringe members.

A lot of people thought this group of bounty hunters were first targeted by the magus order after they killed several hundred members of the House of Voss. But actually, the history of them being pursued dated back over a 100 years. At that time, they were not even known as bounty hunters yet.

There was a long-held feud between their organization and the magus order, so they kept their identities hidden for over a 100 years. It was only when that old history was gradually forgotten in recent decades that they dared to be active again.

Currently, most sorcerers did not even know these bounty hunters were intricately linked to a certain Central Plains Rider and Russell. They only thought they were an unstable factor in the kingdom that had recently emerged. Some of the sorcerers got suspicious of their identities, but there was not enough evidence to prove that the bounty hunters were related to the Central Plains Rider.

They had also caught some bounty hunters in the past, but they didn’t get any useful information out of them.

If Ren Xiaosu had not received the clues from the palace, he would also not have thought the bounty hunters had anything to do with Ren He.

The leaders of this organization had made some changes to the organization’s legacy at some point in time, so only a few leadership figures were aware of what they were fighting

for.

However, the members always had some curiosity about their founder. When Chen Jingshu was young, she would always pester her grandfather, asking about the stories of her predecessors. And because her grandfather doted on her, he would tell her one or two interesting stories about the founder, such as how he could make people cry.

At first, Chen Jingshu thought her grandfather was referring to how the founder could move people to tears. But after her grandfather corrected her and explained it, she realized that making the enemy cry for no reason was a special ability the founder had!

Chen Jingshu did not know whether to laugh or cry at this. How could there be such a strange ability in this world?

But at this moment, this strange ability suddenly played out in front of her.

Qian Weining felt a little puzzled. No such spell existed, so why did he suddenly start crying nonstop? Besides, the only sorcerer present had not cast any spells either.

It could have been due to a sudden soreness in his eyes, or he might have suffered from some kind of eye disorder, or his eyelashes might have gotten stuck in his eyes.

He could also understand why the others cried so badly. Everyone was aware that no one would make it out of this mission alive, but they had all been avoiding talking about it recently.

Having suppressed their fear and faith for so long, it was easy for them to break down over a small issue. Therefore, Qian Weining was not too bothered by it.

However, Chen Jingshu knew the founder was not a sorcerer, yet he really did possess a strange ability like that. A young man from the Central Plains, a strange ability, these two facts came together and sparked a thought. Chen Jingshu realized the young man named Ren Xiaosu might have a more complicated and intimate relationship with them than she had imagined.

However, Ren Xiaosu was not paying attention to the reactions of Chen Jingshu and her group. He was only surprised to discover that the word “all” had changed a single-target attack to a group attack. This was definitely an unexpected surprise.

Those who had been in enough battles should understand that if they could make the enemy cry nonstop, it was enough to be the key to victory.

But that was not the most important thing. What delighted Ren Xiaosu the most was that this spell could also create the impression that the enemy was brought to tears after being defeated!

In the future, if he publicized his achievements, he could say, “I’ve beaten that person before and made them cry!”

Just the thought of it made him extremely excited.

Think, what did it mean to be beaten to tears? Someone would definitely have to be completely overwhelmed by their opponents’ combat strength and had their confidence completely crushed, leaving them so ashamed and depressed they could not help but start crying.

When others heard about how you managed to beat someone to tears, their first impression would be that you must be really strong. Then when they thought more about it, they might even be able to analyze some details.

When Ren Xiaosu thought of this, he nearly laughed out loud!

He looked up at Qian Weining. At this moment, Qian Weining and his men were completely dumbfounded. The emotions they had just managed to restrain started surging again.

Ren Xiaosu wanted to go up and comfort them, but he did not know what would be a good way to approach it. Moreover, he could not go over anymore. Many of the unaware traders and travelers had already surrounded Qian Weining and his men to console them.

If someone were to fall dead right now, these people might even fork out some condolence money for their funeral.

It was not that everyone had a sympathetic heart, but that the atmosphere there was simply too sorrowful.

Next to Ren Xiaosu, Melgor asked in a daze, “Did something happen? What did I miss?”

To Melgor, he had only stayed in his inner world for a short while. By the time he heard the crying and ended his meditation, the real world had become a little strange.

Curious, Ren Xiaosu asked, “You could hear their crying in your inner world?”

“Mhm.” Melgor nodded.

“So the soundproofing of your inner world isn’t that great, huh?” Ren Xiaosu clicked his tongue and sighed.

Melgor was shocked. ‘So many people around us are crying their eyes out, so why are you more concerned about the soundproofing of my inner world?!’ 𝘧r𝑒𝘦𝒘𝘦𝙗ｎovel.𝐜o𝒎

But before Melgor could say anything, he heard the sound of a sharp weapon tearing through the night air.

Ren Xiaosu suddenly dragged Melgor away from the campfire. Melgor was sitting on the ground when he was suddenly pulled backwards by his collar. His whole body became a large doll whose body was flaying uncontrollably from head to toe, including his head.

No one could react in time to what was happening. Right after that, they heard a “thud” as an arrow pierced the spot where Melgor was just sitting! The shaft of the arrow was still vibrating, and the entire arrow had sunk a third of its length into the soil. This was enough to show how terrifying the force of the arrow was when it was fired.

Qian Weining roared in a sobbing tone, “We’re under attack! It’s a steel bow!”

A steel bow was a laminated composite bow made from a mixture of metal and bamboo materials.

The fearsome-sounding weapon was usually an indispensable weapon in large-scale wars. It was mostly carried by soldiers with great strength.

In just an instant, Qian Weining understood the attacker was not a simple bandit. It was definitely a knight from one of the knight brigades like him, and he should at least be a paladin as well!

Qian Weining quickly coordinated for the guards to hide behind the cover of the wagon fort. They had to protect themselves first before they could find an opportunity to counterattack. f𝙧𝒆𝚎𝑤e𝚋𝓷o𝘷𝗲l.c𝐨m

Qian Weining’s roars kept ringing out. In the darkness, a burly figure hesitated for a moment before finally wondering, “What are they crying about?!”
