“Thank you so much for saving our lives!”
As they approached, Wesley Peterson and the other four Lords immediately bowed to Leo Ray, their faces filled with excitement.
At this moment, while they were enjoying their newfound lease on life, all five of them understood very clearly.
The gap between this powerful and mysterious savior and themselves was undoubtedly enormous.
He wouldn’t be interested in their meager resources, or rather, he would disdain them.
So, their minds were actually more at ease.
Furthermore, they eagerly sent friend requests to Leo Ray face-to-face.
On the other side, looking at the scene before her, Ariel Watson, who was standing a little farther back, couldn’t help but twitch the corner of her mouth.
She glanced first at Wesley Peterson and the others, who still looked disheveled.
Her long eyelashes fluttered for a moment, and her somewhat helpless gaze finally settled on the figure of the calm and collected Leo Ray.
In her heart, she pondered: “Aren’t these five Otherworldly Lords the normal level of development? In that case, this annoying guy is like a monster…”
While Ariel Watson and Wesley Peterson’s group were lost in their thoughts,
Leo Ray nodded slightly, giving a light smile to the five Lords: “No need to be polite, I was just passing by.”
As it turned out, the reason why Leo Ray and his group appeared here
was to find a high ground to overlook Dragon’s Lair and get an overview of the city’s current situation.
But this time, they accidentally bumped into the several Lords present.
It could be imagined that since their territories were located here,
they must have a clear understanding of the ins and outs of the attack on Dragon’s Lair.
Therefore, getting some information about Dragon’s Lair from them would be more advantageous for the next move.
As for the Goblin Soldiers, they were merely taken care of while they were at it.
Next, while directly gazing down from the cliffside, Leo Ray noticed
that the city at the foot of the mountain was now shrouded in smoke.
Flames soared on the northern wall facing the pass, and silhouettes were in chaos.
Thunderous battle cries and sharp screams were uninterrupted, indicating that the battle was still ongoing.
And the ice-cold wind brought with it a strong smell of blood and gunpowder, making one shudder involuntarily.
“I didn’t expect the attackers to be these Goblins, who rarely engage in direct combat…”
On the other side, Ariel Watson followed closely, murmuring to herself.
Upon hearing this, Leo Ray slightly raised his eyebrows, and while he popped a Wind Eye Pill to temporarily enhance his vision, continued to observe.
With his growing understanding of this world, Leo Ray became well aware.
Here, Goblins and Half-Orcs were both vicious and brutal races.
However, compared to the aggressive and confrontational Half-Orcs,
Goblins preferred ambushes and deceit and rarely went head-to-head with other races’ armies.
But there was no denying that despite their small size, Goblins were also a force to be reckoned with due to their vast numbers and skill in group combat.
In particular, the number of high-ranking powerful beings was also considerable, almost on par with the Half-Orcs.
“Over the past century, the outer region north of the Hundred Ranges has been quiet, with no large-scale foreign invasions of the Coldflame Kingdom. It seems that this is really because of that incident…”
As Ariel Watson looked at the smoke-ridden city at the foot of the mountain, she couldn’t help but secretly ponder in her heart.
“When did this battle begin?”
On the other hand, after enhancing his vision, Leo Ray, while watching the intense siege battle below, turned and asked the nearby Wesley Peterson and the others.
“Sir, it started this evening and has been going on for quite some time,”
Wesley Peterson, who was directing his subordinates to clean up the battlefield, quickly came over and replied, “The Goblin army appeared very suddenly, and their target is very clear: they want to capture this city!”
“Judging by the number of these Goblins, it seems they are at the Legion level, and they have brought a full array of siege equipment; they are well-prepared.”
At this moment, Giant Axe General Burt, his eyes narrowed as he looked down at the towering city walls and the numerous short figures below, spoke slowly:
“However, since Dragon’s Lair is a fortress city, its defenses are very well-developed, and its commanders have been tempered in battle.
If I’m not mistaken, there are about 7,000 to 8,000 Defense Army soldiers, along with a considerable force of reserves. The nearly ten-meter-tall city wall makes it extremely difficult for a Goblin legion to attack this place.”
“That’s right.”
On the other side, Holy Light General Joshua, holding a golden longsword, also chimed in: “Additionally, there are several other cities of various sizes near Dragon’s Lair. I would think that the first reinforcements will arrive at the latest by tomorrow morning, right?”
Listening to the analysis of the two Kingdom Generals, Leo Ray slightly raised his eyebrows.
As they had said, a Goblin legion of this size would indeed have a hard time seizing Dragon’s Lair.
