EuropeNovelThe next second...
Boom!
There was a loud explosion.
Jared's tank was hit by a shell, causing it to shake violently.
Arnold and the second team captain quickly turned and saw two more tanks slowly emerging from the darkness.
Boom!
One of the tanks fired again, hitting Jared's tank dead-on. After taking two shots, the tank was completely
incapacitated.
"Charge!"
A squad rushed out from behind the tank. At the stime, Arnold saw the villagers from before leading a group
of unfamiliar men and rushing into the battlefield. He widened his eyes. "Are they here to help us?"
He had just been prepared to die under the tank fire, but two tanks suddenly saved his life, and a surge of
people cas reinforcements.
"Why?" Arnold and the other team captain's eyes widened in disbelief. They had never met the mysterious team
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdriving the tanks before. Why were they helping?
Furthermore, the villagers had only met Arnold once. They did not even know his name, but they were risking
their lives to help him.
With the tank destroyed, Jared's team descended into chaos and was easily subdued. The battle ended swiftly.
One of the teams approached and saluted Arnold and the second team captain.
Arnold returned the salute. "Which unit are you from?"
The person responded, "We're the South Regent's troops. We received a message from the villagers here
informing us that you were Ethan Rivers' men, so we cas backup."
Arnold and the second team leader exchanged a look, their expressions filled with shock. The South Regent sent
a team as reinforcements because he heard that they were with Ethan?
It was the South Regent they were talking about He was one of the strongest kings beyond the border He had no
reason to help Ethan Sure, Ethan was a corrupt official, but it was not to the point that someone like the South
Regent would take action and help him.
"The battle is over now, so we'll take our leave."
The South Regent's squad did not intend to stay and left with their tanks.
The villagers approached. The translator had blood on his face as he chuckled. "We contacted the nearby
villages to help. When everyone heard that you could speak with Ethan, they joined without hesitation."
Arnold was at a loss for words.
Several village chiefs stepped forward, all smiling nervously. One of them wiped his hands on his shirt before
holding it out to Arnold for a handshake.
Arnold quickly grasped his hand.
"Did Ethan send you to save us?"
Arnold was silent for a while, then shook his head. They were here to rescue the hostages.
The village chief's eyes dimmed slightly, but he soon regained his spirits. "Of course. He wouldn't know about
our situation here. When you return could you tell him that he's always our hero? If he's willing to save us, we'll
wait for him however long it takes."
They had never met Ethan before, but they knew all about his deeds. He had defeated all the forces on this side
of the border and wiped out several ruthless organizations that had suppressed them like mountains.
Furthermore, he brought peace to Riveria in just a short amount of time. Riveria used to do only marginally
better than them before, but in just three years, it transformed into a completely different world.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFor as long as they could remember, they had lived in this harsh and unforgiving place. They had to start helping
their families from the moment they learned to walk.
They had never gone to school and could not even read. They had to shine eight pairs of shoes just to afford a
grimy slice of bread. If there was no business, they had to wait. If no one came, they went hungry.
They were best at waiting patiently. Ethan was like a beacon of light, giving them hope for the future.
Arnold looked at their sincere and devoted expressions and felt
stunned. It was his first tseeing such expressions. The moment he lifted his head, he seemed to see a figure
standing under the distant streetlight.
Ethan!
However, when he blinked again, Ethan was gone.
