Chapter 702: Chapter 474: Elle’s Request_3
“What?”
On the other side, Ariel Watson’s expression also beca tense, and she asked, “You an there are still residents of My Coldfla there? How many people are there?”
“Probably around seventy or eighty people…”
The pale-faced young man looked frightened, swallowing uneasily before continuing.
Through the young man’s description, Leo Ray learned the situation.
It turned out that they were the residents of the small town built along the mountainside earlier.
Just like the information they had obtained, when the Coldfla Army retreated hurriedly, the townspeople didn’t leave in ti and didn’t even receive any news.
It wasn’t until one night, when the vanguard of the Saint Night Army approached with torches and blades in hand, that the townspeople woke up from their dreams and realized the seriousness of the situation.
Eventually, facing the small vanguard of the Saint Night Army, a handful of able-bodied n in the town desperately held them off, allowing the elderly, won, and children to escape to caves in the mountains.
Having said that, the weak young man and young girl who had already begun to sob quietly fell to their knees before Ariel Watson and Leo Ray, begging, “Princess, big brother, please save our family and the people in the town!”
“So, this ti, the ones facing the Saint Night Army are all elderly, won, and children?”
Ariel Watson helped the two frail bodies in front of her to stand up, her fair complexion turning gloomy once again.
At this point, she could faintly sense that the Saint Night Army moving there consisted of at least a thousand soldiers.
Moreover, there were complete Tier 2 Elite Squadrons and several Tier 3 Powerhouses among them.
As such, it would be almost impossible for Ariel Watson and the two Kingdom Generals alone to successfully rescue so many people.
And considering the cruelty shown by the Saint Night soldiers earlier, the fate of these vulnerable people was obvious.
Realizing this, Ariel Watson looked towards Leo Ray beside her, her face showing a hesitant expression, as if wanting to ask for help but not knowing how to speak.
After all, the annoying guy before her had nothing to do with these residents and didn’t even belong to this world, so there was no need for him to take this risk.
“My dear Her Highness the Fifth Princess, do you want to help you?”
Once again, Leo Ray caught the subtle change in Ariel Watson’s delicate features and raised his eyebrows slightly.
He knew exactly what was going through her mind.
Indeed, they had no obligation to do so.
Under these circumstances, Leo Ray wouldn’t easily let himself and his subordinates get into potential trouble, even if it was only a slight possibility.
However, if he could make the Fifth Princess of Coldfla realize their power and indispensability from the bottom, it would undoubtedly play a decisive role in promoting their eventual subjugation.
This was crucial for their future plans, as well as for expanding their living space.
Just as Leo Ray thought this, Ariel Watson, although she found it hard to speak, nodded hastily when she heard him take the initiative, showing a pleading expression.
As the Fifth Princess of Coldfla, this was all she could do for now.
At this mont, looking at the hopeful expressions on the faces of Ariel Watson and the weak young man and girl, Leo Ray smiled faintly and said, “In that case, let’s go.”
