Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)
Chapter 1760

Hearing this, Daemyn uttered a cold 'hmph'. His face was full of displeasure while he spat. "I, Daemyn, am at the rank of a lieutenant. It's not up to you to teach me how to manage my troops." After saying so, he instructed as if he wanted to provoke Fade on purpose, "Send out my order. We'll start our attack immediately."

"Sir, but Captain Huang said that our formation has not been arranged yet. If we attack now..." A soldier reminded cautiously.

However, an unconcerned sneer surfaced on Daemyn's face. "It's just an attack on a small village. Why do you need a squad? Just charge in and catch them. There's no need to make things so complicated!" "But..." The soldier still wanted to add something.

Daemyn barked in a cold voice, "This is an order. We'll execute it immediately!"

"Yes, sir!" The soldiers had no choice but to spread order to start the attack.

Immediately, Fade noticed approximately hundreds of soldiers pop up at the surrounding hillsides, about to enter Twin-dragon Village from the foot of the mountain.

Seeing this, Fade felt his heart sink. He glanced at Twin-dragon Village at the foot of the mountain and thought that this dead village seemed very strange at this moment. A sense of danger mixed with ominous feelings welled up in his heart.

Then, his expression darkened and quickly followed behind.

He wasn't worried about Daemyn or Jenski and his cronies. Instead, he didn't wish to see these innocent soldiers sacrifice their lives for nothing because of Daemyn's pride and conceit. "Brother Chen..." Behind him, Shinnie gave a shout when she saw him approaching them. He was so immersed and nearly forgotten about her for a second.

He wanted her to stay where she was to avoid danger initially, but on second thought, something unexpected might happen here, so it would be safer for her to stay with him. Therefore, he waved to her and said, "Shinnie, follow me. When we enter the village, remember to stick to me firmly and never wander away from me. Do you understand?"

"Yes!" She gave an earnest, heavy nod and followed closely behind him.

When Evelyn saw Fade and Shinnie coming from behind, she couldn't help sneering at them, "Didn't you say that it's perilous here? Why are the coward deserters here again? Are you here to flatter Daemyn after knowing his identity?"

Fade ignored her and looked around. When he found Jacques, he went directly to him.

"Mr. Chen, you're here!" Jacques' solemn face lit up entirely as he saw Fade, exclaiming in excitement.

He cut to the chase, "Jacques, what's going on? The day before yesterday, Daemyn said he would take action immediately. Why are we holding off until now?"

With a helpless expression on his face, Jacques explained in a low voice, "When Daemyn first arrived, he said he was too tired and wanted to have a rest. He ordered a lavish banquet and wine to eat in the camp."

"Then, it turned out he had drunk too much and slept for the whole day. He didn't wake up until yesterday afternoon. In the afternoon, he complained that he had a hangover, so he rested for the whole day. Thus, the plan was delayed until today."

After hearing this, Fade was speechless for a while. "Daemyn is out of his mind. Placing the responsibility of a hundred soldiers' safety and the success of this mission on this kind of unreliable person? What were the troops thinking?"

Jacques answered bitterly. "I don't have a say in this either. I'm just a small commander. This was an instruction from our superior leaders to cooperate with Daemyn and listen to his orders. That's all I can do!" Fade heaved sighed as well. Then, he ordered Jacques, "Later when we enter the village, listen to my orders if there's any danger. Instruct the soldiers to retreat immediately. We cannot let them die in vain." "But..." Jacques was still a bit worried.

"I'll take care of the mission. You don't have to worry," Fade said.

"Thank you very much, Mr. Chen!" Jacques cried thankfully, his face full of gratitude.

Before long, the troops arrived at the foot of the mountain. There were only two or three hundred meters away from the village in the center of the valley.

At this moment, as Fade got closer and closer to the village, he could feel the unusual strangeness radiating even stronger.

When they had observed the mountain from afar earlier, he saw smoke curling up from the village, and figures were walking around. It looked like any other ordinary village.

Now that he had come closer, he could see that the village was desolate and dead quiet, with no human in sight. He could hardly hear any sound at all, let alone the chirping of birds and insects in the surrounding forests. The grass had also almost disappeared.

Jacques also noticed that something was fishy, and his lips tightened into a thin line.

However, Daemyn was obviously in over his head. He immediately instructed, "Charge in and arrest anyone on sight. If they dare resist, give them a lesson."

After that, he winked at Jenski and Evelyn proudly. He gestured a wave and said, "Let's go. Follow me and see the first action under my command."

"You'll definitely succeed, Commander Daemyn," Evelyn flattered him, fluttering her eyelashes.

Jenski couldn't help frowning, but he didn't say anything. After all, he was here just to enter the village.

A pair of soldiers led the way, and Daemyn and his men then marched towards the village.

Seeing this, Fade grabbed Shinnie and followed suit.

A few minutes later, the first team of soldiers had already entered. It seemed that they had gone into the village for a search.

Daemyn and the others arrived at the village entrance. Just then, they heard a sudden terrifying scream from a brick house right near the entrance, breaking the eerie silence. Everyone jumped, startled. Then, the crowd saw a soldier with blood all over his head rush out, his eyes full of horror.

"What's going on?" Daemyn and Jacques barked almost at the same time.

The frightened soldier quickly stammered, "M-Monster! There's a-a monster inside!"

"What the hell are you blabbering about? What monster? I think you're just slacking off!" Daemyn spat in annoyance, "Go in. If you don't do your job well, I'll give you an expulsion..."

However, before he finished his sentence, another scream was heard from the house, and then a figure rushed out.

Judging from the clothes he was wearing, he was most likely a villager here. The man lowered his head as he staggered in their direction.

Seeing this, Daemyn cannot help throw a tantrum at the soldier he encountered just now, "You can't even handle a villager and call him a monster? What are you going to do..."

Before he could finish his sentence, Daemyn's bodyguard, Lencho, suddenly pulled him back.

"Mr. Hsiang, be careful." "Lencho, you..." Daemyn wanted to add on. However, at this moment, when he looked up and saw that villager's face, he turned pale immediately, frightened to no end.

That was because at this moment, this seemingly ordinary villager's face flushed scarlet, and his eyes were shining with a red glow. His mouth was full of blood, and he was biting on a piece of meat, constantly chewing on it as red liquid oozed from the corner of his mouth.

Such a terrifying scene immediately shocked the wealthy aristocrats. Evelyn's face blanched, and with a frightened shriek, she stumbled back, almost falling to the ground.

"W-What is this? It's a monster..." She was so afraid that she was on the verge of sobbing, her expression gripped with undisguised fear.

Jenski turned as pale as a sheet too, but he remained calm and said to his bodyguard, "Keeton, I must trouble you."
