First, we prioritize the quality of our guild members, recruiting only those with a specific skill or outstanding potential.

Erza nodded in sudden realization:

"I see. So it's an elite guild. Guilds like that are very rare these days."

Most guilds basically recruit anyone who wants to join.

As the number of members increases, it does attract many unsuspecting clients to the guild to post their requests.

However, such guilds are also a mixed bag, with members of varying skill levels and qualities, which can easily bring negative consequences to the guild.

Erza shared her opinion, and her insights immediately caught Yan's attention.

I humbly beg all my esteemed readers to give me more flowers and monthly tickets, and I desperately request that you urge me to update more frequently and provide rewards. I would be eternally grateful.

Chapter 250 An unconventional guild, and the innocent Erza!

Looking at this girl who was only 19 years old but could already talk eloquently about certain issues, Yan made no secret of his admiration for her.

"Not bad, it seems you have quite a talent for management, it's a pity you're not a member of our guild."

Otherwise, my lazy guild leader would be more than happy to let you handle all the guild's mundane affairs.

"Managing a guild? No, no, no, I'm not cut out for that~".

Erza seemed to have heard something shocking, and with a shy yet slightly excited expression, she shook her head repeatedly in refusal.

"Besides, Sister Yan, Mr. Bitz is still the president of your guild. You should show her some respect."

"Tch, still so inflexible. Now I think you're even more capable of managing the guild."

Erza seemed not to hear Yan's teasing and lowered her head, poking her fingers with an embarrassed expression.

"Ha, I'm just teasing you now, I'll continue."

With a light laugh, Yan continued talking about the guild's recruitment criteria, which she hadn't finished explaining earlier.

"Besides the high requirements, there is another rule in our guild that has prevented many capable mages from joining."

Hearing this, Erza finally looked up curiously.

"That is, our guild only recruits female members, which is the fundamental reason why our guild has so few members."

"Why?" Erza asked instinctively.

"If that's the case, the Mermaid's Heel Guild also only recruits women, but they still have a large number of members."

The Saiyan's tail shouldn't be...

Before she could finish the second half of her sentence, Erza seemed to realize something and suddenly stopped, looking astonished.

Yan also let out a cold laugh and retorted:

"Yes, Mermaid's Heel only accepts women, but the prerequisite is that the entire household must be female from head to toe."

But we are different. Our guild leader is a man. What normal person would join a guild whose leader is a man, yet requires that only women can join?

Those in the know clearly understand that this is a mage guild; those who don't might mistake it for an unconventional harem created by some powerful family.

"After, after, after, after!!!"

Erza, innocent and naive, let out a scream. Her face flushed red and hot, like boiling water.

"So, so Mr. Bitz founded the guild with this purpose in mind!"

This is absolutely despicable! I must find him and give him a good dressing down!

Seeing Erza's eyes start to dart around, and her shy, confused expression making her want to confront Beetz, she realized that Erza was about to turn away.

Yan chuckled and grabbed her, trying to suppress his laughter as he soothed her:

"Don't overreact, I'm just exaggerating."

Others aren't stupid; once a normal person understands our guild's situation, they won't join.

Unless you're genuinely interested in that guy, or you're completely out of your mind, who would join that lousy guild?

"Ah, yes, is that so?"

Hearing Yan say that, Erza regained her senses.

Upon closer examination, she realized it was true. Under normal circumstances, what female mage would join a guild that looked so shady? At least Erza would definitely back down after hearing the conditions.

Wait, that's not right. If that's the case, then what about Sister Yan...?

0Request flowers Erza, having discovered the key point, cautiously glanced at Yan beside her, her heart skipping a beat.

How could her little movements escape Yan's eyes? Yan immediately guessed what the girl was thinking.

Yan pursed her lips, showing no intention of explaining herself, or rather, she simply didn't know how to explain.

What could she say? That she was just a pitiful prisoner before, and had no right to refuse that guy?

Or perhaps, after spending some time together, she had been seduced by that guy and transformed into his shape?

Regardless of the version of events, once she says it, the admirable image she has painstakingly built in Erza's mind will definitely crumble.

Yan Cai wouldn't do something so foolish. She's an angel. Others should just admire her beauty; they don't need to know too much.

With Yan remaining silent, their conversation abruptly ended.

The atmosphere between the two women gradually became strange.

Erza tried to probe several times out of curiosity, but she suppressed her anger with her strong will.

Fortunately, just when she was about to give up on gossiping, Natsu, Gray, and the others returned in time.

Gray made his way around the village and returned to the two of them.

But before he could even tell him the clues he had gathered, he saw Erza sitting on the chair, her little face flushed red.

"Huh? Is it that hot today? Erza, your face is all red from the sun."

I humbly beg all my esteemed readers to give me more flowers and monthly tickets, and I desperately request that you urge me to update more chapters and reward me. I would be eternally grateful.

!

"Phew, it's nothing, just a little bit of acclimatization issues, I'll be fine in a bit."

"Tell me what you've found out first."

Erza awkwardly brushed the matter off with a very perfunctory excuse.

Gray still couldn't understand why Erza was showing signs of acclimatization problems less than two hours after arriving on the island.

Why would her cheeks turn red if she wasn't used to the local environment?

But Gray's rationality told him that it was better not to ask too many questions.

So Gray naturally followed up on Erza's lead and continued the conversation.

"Three, two, three..."

"I'm sorry to disappoint you, I asked around the village but didn't get any useful information."

The biggest anomaly in the village, as the village chief mentioned yesterday, is that the moon turned purple three years ago.

There is something very strange about the moon, but Natsu and Gray knew about it when they arrived yesterday.

The villagers all thought something was wrong with the moon, and the village chief even asked Natsu and Gray to find a way to blow it up.

Gray and Natsu had already told Erza about this beforehand.

Erza's idea was to wait until the moon came out at night before making any plans.

After waiting a while, Natsu returned with Happy's help after completing his reconnaissance.

In contrast to their fruitless search, Natsu and Happy made a significant discovery.

"Hana, Erza, Gray! I've found a very suspicious temple in the mountains outside the village."

After landing safely from mid-air, Natsu immediately shared their discovery with everyone.

"A temple? There are only a few people on this island, how could there be a temple?"

This just seems suspicious no matter how you look at it.

Greymoss analyzed, stroking his chin, while Harpy added, raising his little paw:

"Love, and it wasn't just any ordinary temple, it was huge!"

This made Zhongdun even more suspicious of the temple.

Erza immediately slammed her hand on her chair and declared:

"In that case, let's go check out that temple; perhaps the clues are there."

As she spoke, she looked to Yan for her opinion. Yan was already aware of the situation and naturally did not refuse.

She rose, a flash of light emanating from her body, and donned her armor once more. She then gave the order to Harpy:

"Then we'll leave the task of leading the way to Harpy. Let's go and take a look together."

"Well, come with me."

Needless to say, Harpy turned around and flew ahead to guide the group.

Yan and the others left the village and headed towards the temple hidden in the forest, under the expectant gazes of the villagers.

Erza originally thought that the temple Natsu mentioned would be far away from the village.

Little did they know that after leaving the village and walking for just over 20 minutes, passing through a grove of dense vegetation, they could see the outline of a temple atop a small hill in the distance.

Looking back at the path they had come from, Erza, who was at the back of the group, frowned in confusion and fell into thought.

Yan, who was also lagging behind in the group, noticed her unusual behavior and a thought struck her. She then quietly praised her:

"You're very quick-witted; you immediately thought of 0."

Erza, lost in thought, was startled by Yan's sudden interruption, but she quickly regained her composure and looked at Yan with equal surprise, whispering:

"Sister Yan, you noticed it too? It seems that apart from not being familiar with the mission process, you are excellent in every other aspect."

After offering a compliment, Erza immediately voiced the question that had been on her mind.

"I originally thought this site would be in some very secluded place, otherwise the villagers wouldn't have acted as if they knew nothing about it and hadn't even mentioned it."

But now it seems that the situation is not as I imagined.

There are only two possible reasons for this situation: either they are deliberately concealing something, or they have other ulterior motives.

Either they have some unspeakable difficulties, or they are inconvenient or even afraid to tell us, fearing negative consequences.

Yan nodded again, inwardly praising the girl's keen observation, and at the same time posed another question.

"So, which of these two situations do you think they belong to?"

Erza did not answer immediately, but pondered for more than ten seconds before giving her answer.

"If I had to choose, I would lean more towards the latter of the two scenarios."

Although you may think I'm being arrogant, my gut feeling tells me they aren't the kind of bad guys who deliberately send fake requests to lure people in and kill them.

I trust my intuition.

I humbly beg all my esteemed readers to give me more flowers and monthly tickets, and I desperately request that you urge me to update more frequently and provide rewards. I would be eternally grateful.

!

"Hmm, I hope your intuition is right."

Yan neither denied nor agreed with Erza's statement, and after giving a casual reply, she remained silent.

Website: www. 53dushu. com QQ Group: 284251450 Erza didn't say much, but she increased her vigilance and prepared to make a decision based on the situation.

The group made their way to the foot of the mountain. Harpy, who had been scouting from the sky, seemed to have spotted something and quickly turned and flew down to warn the others:

"Everyone, be careful, there are many strange guys wearing cloaks on the mountaintop."

Upon hearing that someone was there, Natsu immediately became eager to try and began rubbing his hands together.
