Chapter 710: Refugee Camp
"Captain Arnold, it's no longer safe in the city, you take Lord Ahyan Baker and His Highness Downs Wharton to leave here first, quick!" Wang Xu cleared the siege for Ahyan Baker. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"But, Your Highness," Arnold replied to the king in a deep voice, "there are still people in the city who have not been evacuated, and we can help more people evacuate if we are left!"
"I already have a plan, you guys leave first, hurry up......" Wang Xu, who didn't want this group of loyal and good people to lose anything, ordered them loudly with a cold face: "Hurry up, don't waste time!"
"Yes, my lord!" After a final worried glance at Wang Xu, the people of the Arnold mercenary group picked up Aheng Baker, dragged Downs Wharton, and quickly retreated towards the nearest city gate.
I have to say that the city wall built by Wang Xu is really strong enough, even if the ground in the city has been tossed by the growing tree of life like the surface of the moon, and there are potholes, but the four sections of the city wall that have been deformed are still standing there intact, and not even a single brick has fallen.
It was thanks to the integrity of these fortified walls that the people of the city fled from the devastated hill city to the river valley outside the city, no matter how crowded they were.
Since the valley outside Hill City has been filled by the Cat People and Minotaur tribes, the panicked people have fled into these tribes.
Because the Cat People tribe and the Minotaur tribe had been prepared for a long time, when the people in the city fled to them, they had already cut off a large open space to accommodate these panicked people, and prepared water for them to quench their thirst.
At this time, Angela, who was standing on a high place and watching the people drinking water in the clearing to quench their thirst, found some familiar faces among the "refugees", which were the twelve members of the Arnold mercenary group.
As for Aheng Baker, who was supported by Arnold and the others, and Downs Wharton, who was dragged away, they were naturally ignored by Angela, and after quickly running in front of Arnold and them, Angela hurriedly asked them: "Chief Arnold, what is going on in the city......?" He...... How's it going?"
"His Royal Highness Prince Io, it's okay, there's nothing big happening in the city, don't worry......" Leaning over and putting Ahyan Baker on the grass and letting him sit down, Arnold continued to reply: "His Royal Highness has planted a sacred tree seed in the city, and His Highness has made the sacred tree grow, and in the future, this will be the imperial city of our elves......"
"Oh......" Looking at Arnold's adoring gaze when he mentioned Wang Xu, Angela, the princess of the cat clan, breathed a sigh of relief and sighed, "That's the case......"
"Why didn't you see Wang Xu and them come out?" Gillier, who was following Angela, asked Arnold after scanning the "refugee camp" for a long time and not finding Wang Xu and them.
"I don't know what the specific reason is, I guess, maybe His Royal Highness has to stay there to observe the holy trees that continue to grow in the city......" Arnold explained excitedly, changed his tone, and persuaded the two Catwomen in a deep voice: "You two must not go over, the city is very dangerous, and His Highness will not let anyone pass, I hope you two can measure the intentions of His Highness......"
"Thank you for your concern...... "After thanking Arnold, Angela, the princess of the cat clan, turned and led Gilill away, and she prepared to go back to the big tent to tell her father what had happened in the city.
When Angela had just entered the tent, she was stunned, and she was surprised to find that in addition to her father and the two chiefs of the Minotaur tribe, there were more than a dozen human-like maidens dressed in sky-blue linen cloaks.
When Angela saw the blue scales on the necks of these human maidens and their snake-like eyes, she immediately understood that these girls were dragon girls who could transform into human forms, and they were the team that the blue dragon Malygos had promised to send to help Wang Xu.
Before Angela could say hello to the dragon girls, her father, the chief chief of the Cat People, Abel laughed and pointed at her while saying to the dragon girls, "She is my daughter, and Dio Wharton is my son-in-law, so can you ask her if you have any questions?"
"Oh, thank you!" After nodding his head in thanks to Abel, Cecilia, the leader of the dragon maidens, walked up to Angela and asked her very dryly, "Where is Julio Wharton?"
"He's still in the city, you're the team sent by the blue dragon Malygos, right?" Angela knowingly replied to Cecilia, in order to hint at her: I know who you are!
"Yes, we were sent by the patriarch to protect Heroe Wharton, I am their leader, my name is Cecilia, hello......" Cecilia was more impatient, and before she knew Angela's name, she continued to ask, "What happened in the city?"
"My name is Angela, and I'm a woman from Gio Wharton," although she wasn't asked her name, Angela introduced herself as a courtesy, and then she replied, "Gio planted the seed of a tree of life in the city, and now, he's using magic to make the tree of life grow quickly!"
"Oh......" Cecilia nodded lightly after listening to Angela's explanation, and then, she thanked Angela and said, "Thank you, Princess Angela......"
After thanking Angela, Cecilia didn't give Angela a chance to reply, and then asked Angela, "Can you take us to meet Heroo Wharton, you should know what the patriarch asked us to give him!"
"Not now...... Angela explained to Cecilia, pointing to the wooden stool inside the tent, "At this moment, Sirio's magic is at a critical stage, and it can't be disturbed, so you might as well wait here for a while, I think he'll be here soon!"
"This ......" Cecilia, who was more impatient, wanted to refuse Angela's suggestion, but after thinking about it, she still accepted Angela's suggestion and ordered her subordinates to sit on a wooden stool to rest.
The reason why Cecilia will accept Angela's suggestion is also very simple, she understands that in the future, for a period of time, her team will have to obey the command of Julio Wharton, and she can't disobey her orders from the beginning, if her first impression of Rio Wharton is so bad, then, if she is driven away, how can she explain to the patriarch when she goes back.
"Princess Angela," Cecilia, who had just sat down for less than a minute, asked Angela impatiently, "How long will it take for Her Highness to complete her magic?"
"I don't know, but it won't be long, because the tree of life is about to grow into a ......," Angela replied softly after thinking for a few seconds.
"There's something I'm puzzled about, I want to ask you, I don't know ......," Cecilia asked Angela politely......
