The bespectacled male Lord on the side was trembling slightly, his face shocked. “My God, we were actually saved by Master Leo himself. I must be dreaming…”
“It’s really Master Leo!”
At this moment, the two young female Lords had faces full of ecstasy, jumping up in excitement.
“I didn’t expect him to be such a big shot…”
Next to the four people, Wesley Peterson opened his mouth wide, barely able to say that sentence before showing a face of endless surprise.
Being able to become acquainted with such a big shot that night was a blessing in disguise for them!
Thus, after a while…
Wesley finally regained his composure and said to the others, “Alright, everyone, our journey is just beginning. If we want to gain Master Leo’s approval, we must show our worth!”
Upon hearing this, everyone appeared eager and ready, their eyes becoming brighter.
Under the vast night sky, and against the cold night wind mixed with the smell of blood, Leo Ray dashed down the mountain peak until reaching the foot, where he paused for a moment.
At this time, he noticed.
There were two paths leading to the mountain summit, both somewhat narrow mountain trails.
One of them led to the north gate of Dragon’s Lair.
Based on the footprints, this was the path taken by the Goblin Soldiers, and the path seemed relatively smooth.
As for the other path, it led to the south gate of Dragon’s Lair, a more rugged and overgrown path that was hard to notice unless descending from the mountain.
“With the view from the five Lords’ territory, they can have a clear view of the surrounding area, especially Dragon’s Lair. If anything happens in the future, I can get first-hand information through them.
After all, even if the conditions allow, occupying Dragon’s Lair now wouldn’t benefit me. I would have to put in resources and manpower to defend against foreign attacks—a ‘good job’ best left to Coldflame.”
Upon thinking this, Leo Ray did not hesitate.
He quickly nodded to Taylor beside him, signaling him to completely block the smooth path leading to the north gate with a large number of boulders on the mountainside.
In this way, by sealing off the foreign race’s path up the mountain, the safety of the five Lords would be somewhat guaranteed.
Once everything was done, Leo Ray nodded in satisfaction.
Then he dashed towards Dragon’s Lair with his subordinates and Ariel Watson, among others.
In a short while, after easily crossing the slackly defended southern city wall and entering the city, Leo Ray discovered.
At this time, apart from the constant shouts of killing and soaring flames coming from the north, the city was silent and almost pitch-dark.
Occasionally, a patrol team of Defense Army soldiers or Magicians carrying torches and casting light orbs would nervously patrol the streets.
Soon after, the group slipped into a hidden alley.
“It seems that the city’s residents have already taken refuge.”
At this moment, Ariel Watson walked up and mused, “If I remember correctly, there should be a large underground city beneath Dragon’s Lair.”
As she said this, Ariel seemed to recall something and discreetly exchanged glances with the two Kingdom Generals beside her.
“It seems that ‘that thing’ is located in the underground city.”
Naturally, nothing could escape Leo Ray’s eyes. He slightly raised his eyebrows, hesitated for a moment, then asked, “So, the residents should be taking refuge in the underground city?”
“Yes.”
On the other side, with Ariel’s permission, Giant Axe General Burt stepped forward and replied, “As far as I know, the underground city here was not built by our Coldflame Kingdom. Its original owner seemed to be a vanished Dwarf Clan.
Our Coldflame Kingdom built the city on top of the underground city and expanded and renovated it in order to better defend against foreign invasions.”
“Although that’s the case, the underground city has existed for thousands of years, so we can’t rule out the possibility that it’s been discovered by the Goblin Legion, which then infiltrates from underground.”
Ariel pondered for a moment and then said, “In that case, let’s go and check the underground city.” Upon saying this, she turned her starry eyes to Leo Ray and continued, “If the enemy manages to infiltrate and attack with force from the underground, it would be a serious issue. Should Dragon’s Lair fall, your Cyan Town would undoubtedly be affected sooner or later, right?”
“You’re right.”
Hearing this, Leo Ray shrugged his shoulders without refuting.
Since his goal was to find ‘that thing’ anyway, why not let the overly clever Ariel lead him directly to the destination?
“Princess, I have been to Dragon’s Lair once several years ago and vaguely remember the nearest entrance to the underground city. Please follow me.”
On the other side, Giant Axe General Burt bent slightly and bowed to Ariel Watson.
Under the guidance of Burt and shrouded in darkness, Leo Ray and the others went directly through several dark streets and finally stopped in front of a giant bell tower.
Upon close inspection, this towering bell tower was at least fourteen or fifteen meters high.
At a glance, the sharp, magic-illuminated roof of the tower intertwined with the twin moons in the sky, forming a certain charm.
However, beneath the tall tower, it was a gruesome scene.
Several squads of Defense Army soldiers around the clock tower had been slaughtered, with horrifying crimson stains flowing everywhere.
From the almost unblemished state of the scene, it was clear that these soldiers had fallen under a mighty enemy’s blade without offering any resistance.
“It seems that protecting the city ‘from the idea’ is not just a notion we share.”
Seeing this, Leo Ray moved his heart, and the sharp Rolanddel appeared in his palm.
Surrounded by his main force, they all prepared for battle.
