When Landon and the rest had arrived on the scene, they were first taken aback by the massive blazing huts within the tiny village.
The fire burned angrily, as its leaping flames seemed to be filled with rage towards the huts that it engulfed.
The air smelled burnt and felt extremely hot as well, as several black particles danced about in it merrily.
The black particles and the flames were a stark contrast to the clear snowy floors below..... And made the whole scene looked like a painting brought to life instead.
The villagers gathered around the cold snowy grounds, either had faces that had been coated with burnt ashes... or bodies filled with blood and injuries instead.
"Freeze!
Drop your weapons and put your hands up in the air, if you don't want to die!"
"_"
The villagers saw Landon and his men, and immediately... Their mouths dropped and opened wide in awe.
'Ahhh!
So cool' They thought.
The way the trucks had parked, and the speed at which Landon and his men had got out... made everyone look at them in amazement.
If this was back on earth, it would look exactly like how those cool secret agents stop their cars just in time to tell someone to 'get in!'.
And before the vehicles had even stopped, several men calmly jumped out and pointed their weapons at the bad guys.
It was just too cool!
Of course seeing all of this, the villagers felt like crying instead.
"Hurray!
We are saved!"
"We are saved!"
"My son will live!"
"My wife will not be taken away.
Thank the heavens!"
They said excitedly without a care in the world for the stunned bandits that were currently surrounding them.
Even though some of them had been previously injured and felt immense pain all over their bodies..... At this moment in time, they couldn't feel the pain at all.
Their bodies felt light as if a heavy burden had been taken off their shoulders.
Tears of joy welled up in their already swollen eyes, as they looked at the men who had just arrived on the scene.
Did their ancestors listen to their pleas and finally sent these people to save them?
Were they finally going to be free from these bandits?
Did this mean that they would no longer suffer or starve to death from giving all their food and coins to these bandits?
Many of them looked to the sky and said a silent prayer in their hearts.
'Thank you, ancestors... Thank you!'
As for the bandits, the moment they heard the words from these strange people... Without even a single thought, they quickly raised their hands up like children who have been caught doing mischief.
But after a few seconds, they all placed their hands down and pointed their weapons at Landon and his crew instead.
Dammit!
Previously... because of the strange superior-looking carriages and the rushed entrance of these men, the bandits all raised their hands unconsciously without even giving it a single thought.
As reflex would make anyone do certain things in such surprising situations.
Plus.... the way Landon and his men had come in, first gave them the impression that these men were far superior to them.
So of course they did as they were told like morons.
But after raising their hands in the air critically, they now felt really stupid and decided to defend themselves instead.
Many of them already had a high that these people were from Baymard... But so what?
It was common knowledge that the place was ridiculously weak.
In short, many empires had already started making plans for owning the place, and that was a fact.
Essentially, everyone knew that Baymard had no sword academy or archery squad, and only had something (taser) that could release lightning onto its victim.
But this strange weapon could only be fired if one stood somewhat close to the victim.
The leader of the group felt that if they stepped back a little bit, then they would be safe from these black stick rooms that were currently pointed at them.
"Men, step back!" The leader commanded.
But just when they were about to move, someone else commanded them to stay instead.

"I said you all should freeze and drop your weapons!
Any more lives, and we will take action against you regardless."
Hearing that, their leader, as well as some of the bandits all, sneered while looking coldly at these nosy people before them.
At this distance, what could their weapons do to them?
They looked at these nosy people who coldly while continuously pointing their weapons at them.
"Drop our weapons?
Heh!
Do you take us for fools?
What if you kill us after we drop them?"
"It's not our policy to kill at will.
So we won't
Now drop your weapon immediately!!"
"Like I said, do you think that we will really believe that?
Hmph!
Judging from you're carriages and outfit, I'm guessing that you from Baymard.
But I would like to mind you all that this is Arcadina, the land of the lawless... And not Baymard.
Listen here!
I don't really care what you intend to do..... but around these parts, we are the law!
So with that said, I suggest that you all stop being nosy and her out of our way now!!!!!" The leader said arrogantly.
Hearing him, the other bandits also felt confident as well.
If these people were from Baymard, then what could they really do to them?
With that, the bandits all felt overly excited and hyped up too.
"That's right!
You all are just nosy people!
How is any of this your business?"
"Do you people just like to go around looking for trouble?
Well, since you all like trouble so much, then we'll give you double of it instead."
"What a bunch of busy-bodies!
After we deal with you all, we will be taking these sweet carriages of yours."
"Aye... Actually, we should really thank you for putting your nose into our business the way you did.
Thanks to that, were now acquired these godly carriages."
"Leader... Why don't we just kill them and take their belongings instead?"
"Yeah, leader!.... Let's kill them!!"
"Yes!
Let's do it by hanging them?"
"No!
I don't agree!
Let's burn them instead!"
"Tsk!
What do you all know,
Cutting them into pieces is definitely the better option here."
"No!... Burn them!"
"Hang them!"
"Poison them!"
