Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong
Chapter 1199 - Chapter 1199 Chapter 723 In Vilun City

Chapter 1199: Chapter 723: In Vilun City Chapter 1199: Chapter 723: In Vilun City “Who’s there?!”

Startled by the sudden voice, Kel quickly looked in its direction.

A gentle-faced young man had, somehow, already appeared behind him.

Two men and three women were standing beside the young man, while the soldiers around Kel were like statues, unable to move. Only their terrified eyes were still spinning.

The newcomers were Leo Ray, Taylor, Jasper Richardson, Ariel Watson, Gideon Black, and Brocade Winthrop, who had just removed their Invisibility Cloaks.

When Leo Ray left Cyan Town, the 30,000 New Aristocracy soldiers besieging the city had been completely defeated. Most of them were annihilated, and the rest were captured.

Currently, Linda and Rhizoma Drynariae’s Cyan Town Defense Army, Ned Nathan and Nathan Howard’s Magnet Town Defense Army, and Xenia Blackwood and Bella White’s Milan Town Defense Army were cleaning up the surrounding battlefield and dealing with post-war matters.

Benson’s Dragon’s Lair forces and Roscoe’s Goblin forces were advancing westward, continuing their assault on the New Aristocracy’s sphere of influence.

As for Red Night, the other Tier 5 powerhouse, and the main Tier 4 powerhouses like Leah, Scarlett, Lina, and Serena Clark, they were stationed in Cyan Town and the surrounding forest under Leo Ray’s arrangement and did not move together.

There were two main reasons for Leo Ray’s arrangement.

First, the main powerhouses had been greatly exhausted after a series of battles, so they needed to recover their strength as soon as possible for emergencies.

Secondly, the territory and Cyan Town had just gone through a major battle and had not yet fully stabilized. With these powerhouses stationed there, even if unexpected events occurred, Leo Ray could deal with them in time.

The reason that Leo Ray led some of the main powerhouses to Vilun City was for one purpose – to capture Vilun City without a fight.

It’s important to note that the Traditional Aristocratic Forces in this region were vast, with 12 major cities and a wide distribution range.

The soldiers under Leo Ray were courageous, well-equipped, but limited in number. They couldn’t control every area at the same time.

Moreover, attacking one by one would be too time-consuming and lead to new casualties.

Most importantly, Leo Ray clearly understood that he shouldn’t give the reserve forces any breathing room after their main forces had been wiped out. He had to control the entire region swiftly to avoid further troubles.

Therefore, aside from a frontal assault, finding another way became the most pressing issue at hand.

Among these, winning over the wavering forces of the other side without fighting to make them stronger became Leo Ray’s best choice.

After all, Leo Ray’s goal was to eradicate the hostile nobles occupying this land, establish a new order, quickly transform the assets and resources into his own, and not blindly destroy everything.

To capture Vilun City without a fight, the current Vilun City garrison commander and Defense Army Battalion Commander, Kel, was the ideal key to achieving this goal.

When Gideon Black initially interrogated Baldwin, Leo Ray had already learnt about Kel and found out that Baldwin had imprisoned Kel’s family when he left.

So, as Leo Ray had just said, before coming to find Kel, Leo Ray had already saved Kel’s family and moved them to a safe location within the city.

Looking at the dumbfounded Kel, Leo Ray smiled faintly and briefly described the process of saving his family from the City Lord Mansion.

“So, my family has indeed been saved?”

After listening to Leo Ray’s words, Kel looked overjoyed and thanked Leo Ray repeatedly.

After a while, Kel finally reacted and asked cautiously, “May I ask who Your Excellency is?”

“You may not recognize me, but her face should be very familiar to you, right?”

Leo Ray raised an eyebrow, nodding to Ariel Watson, who had been standing quietly behind him. She understood, and immediately removed her hooded cap.

In an instant, a cascade of thick, wavy blue-black hair fell like a waterfall, and a delicate, noble face appeared under a small, glittering golden crown.

“Pr… Princess?!”

Seeing the noble face that often appeared on Magic Portraits, Kel was extremely surprised and immediately knelt in gratitude, “Thank you, Princess, for saving my family from the clutches of evil!”

At this time, Kel felt a mix of emotions, including shock and joy.

Before leaving, Baldwin had imprisoned his family to guard against him. Even in normal times, he and his family were strictly monitored.

Yet, the extremely noble princess had risked her own safety to personally rescue his family. The contrast was undoubtedly striking.

After all, he was just an insignificant person. What had he done to deserve the Princess’s attention?

“Commander Kel, no need for formalities. I already know that you didn’t collude with Baldwin.”

Ariel Watson nodded with a smile and praised, “Although you were weak, you still truly protected my people. So, this is what you deserve. You protected my people, and I protected your family. It’s not a big deal.”
