"Lord, judging from the smell, the Holy Night Army has discovered those soldiers who were killed."

At this time, the rough voice of the knotweed rang in Lei Xiao's ears, and he reported: "Currently, the other party has accelerated the search speed, and is moving towards the area where we are."

Having said this, Huzhang pointed to a mountain peak not far away and continued: "At the same time, there are a large number of Holy Night Army soldiers who are gathering in that direction."

"That direction?!"

Hearing this, the skinny girl's expression suddenly became panicked, and she blurted out: "That's where everyone in the town is hiding!"

"What?"

On the other side, Ariel's expression also became tense, and then she said: "You mean there are still residents of my Lengyan there? How many people are there?"

"There are about seventy or eighty people left..."

Seeing the sallow-looking young man, he swallowed uneasily and continued to add.

Next, through the boy's description, Lei Xiao learned.

It turned out that they were the residents of the small town built on the mountain just now.

Just like the intelligence obtained by our own side, when the Lengyan Army retreated hastily, they did not leave in time and did not even receive any news.

Until one night, when the vanguard of the Holy Night Army, holding torches and sharp blades, was already close at hand.

The residents of the small town woke up from their dreams and realized the seriousness of the situation.

In the end, facing the small forward force of the Holy Night Army, and under the desperate resistance of the only young and middle-aged people left in the town, the other old, weak, women and children were able to evacuate to the caves in the mountains by luck.

After that, the pair of thin boys and girls, who had begun to sob softly, knelt down in front of Ariel and Lei Xiao, begging: "Your Highness, big brother, please save our family and the town.

People!"

"So, those who face the Holy Night Army this time are all old, weak, women and children?"

He lowered himself to lift up the two thin bodies in front of him, and Ariel's fair face became dim again.

At this time, she could already vaguely sense it.

The Holy Night Army that is moving there is at least the size of a thousand-man brigade.

Moreover, there are many established second-level elite squadrons and several third-level strong men among them.

Therefore, it would be almost impossible for her and the two kingdom generals to successfully rescue so many people.

Judging from the cruel behavior of the soldiers of the Holy Night Army just now, the fate of these old, weak, women and children is naturally self-evident.

Realizing this, Ariel looked at Lei Xiao next to her again, with a hesitant expression that she wanted to request but didn't know how to speak.

After all, the annoying guy in front of me has nothing to do with these residents, and is not even from this world, so there is no need to take this risk.

"Dear Your Highness the Fifth Princess, do you want me to help you?"

Once again keenly aware of the subtle expression on Ariel's delicate face, Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly.

Lei Xiao naturally knows the other party's little thoughts very well.

Admittedly, there is really no need for our side to do this.

Under such circumstances, Lei Xiao will not easily let himself and his subordinates fall into possible difficulties, even if it is only a little bit.

However, if Leng Yan's fifth princess can be made to realize from the bottom of her heart how powerful and indispensable her side is, it will undoubtedly play a decisive role in promoting the final subjugation.

This point is crucial to our own future layout and to expanding our living space.

Just when Lei Xiao thought of this.

On the other side, although Ariel was a little embarrassed to say it, when she heard Lei Xiao's initiative, she nodded quickly, showing a slightly begging expression.

As the fifth princess of Leng Yan, this is all she can do at present.
