Chapter 616 Emergency Reinforcements
Chapter 616 Emergency Reinforcements
"Lord Caspian, why would you even need Phoenix Vanguard just to deal with some enemy special
agents?" Macy complained as she was enjoying the fight at the frontlines and didn't want to leave.
Caspian replied, "The enemy special agents are trained fighters. Joey's men won't be enough to deal
with them. I need you there at once!"
"But the battle here is just getting started. I don't wanna go!"
"Are you defying my orders, Macy? Bring Phoenix Vanguard with you and head for Riverside Villa now!
I'll hold you responsible if anything happens to my wife!"
The loss would be tremendous if Willow was captured by the enemy as it would disrupt their current
battle plans.
"Yes, sir! I'm on it right away!" Macy was reluctant to leave but didn't dare to go against Caspian's
orders.
Macy soon led Phoenix Vanguard back to Riverside Villa.
Laina had also ordered the rest of Task Force Rose to head toward Riverside Villa as reinforcements.
Caspian made a call to the remaining soldiers stationed at the house and ordered them to be on high
alert for incoming enemy attacks. They also needed to make sure that Willow was safe.
The armored soldiers immediately began preparations to deal with enemy attacks after the call.
Task Force Rose arrived at Riverside Villa as soon as possible and set up an ambush around the
vicinity.
They had just finished setting up their positions when a group of men dressed in black appeared
outside Riverside Villa.
The enemy special agents saw that there was not a single soul around Riverside Villa and were too
puzzled to make a move.
"Is there not a single soldier defending this place? This doesn't seem right."
"Yeah. Did Caspian not leave any soldiers to protect his wife?"
"That can't be possible. Unless the soldiers are taking a break?"
"Absolutely no way. They wouldn't dare to leave their posts without permission. Could it be that our
plan has been leaked?"
"What should we do now? Do we still proceed with the mission?"
The group of men began to discuss their next move.
They were all trained fighters with keen senses, and they all felt that there was something fishy going
on.
The leader of the Astronian special agents, Caro, explained, "We don't have time to think about it!
General Obrien tasked us to capture Willow as soon as possible. We'll have to head inside."
A Vadesian special agent replied, "It's way too obvious that we're walking into a trap! We're just walking
into certain death!"
Caro replied, "Time waits for no one. General Obrien is currently trapped under heavy fire. We need to
capture Caspian's wife in order to turn the tides of battle. The troops stationed here shouldn't be a
problem for us. We're doing this!"
"You go first, then. I'll follow behind."
The Vadesian special agents weren't fully committed to the mission as their champion, Robert, was
already no more.
They could always choose to quietly sneak out of the city instead of risking their lives for this mission.
They decided to let Astronian special agents lead the charge so that they could retreat at the first sign
of danger.
Caro explained, "Fine, but you'd better actually follow up behind us. Capturing Willow will be beneficial
for you guys as well. Don't just try to sneak out of Diatoran in one piece!"
They had no time left to idle any longer.
Caro led the charge with his men.
The Vadesian special agents stood around and waited.
Suddenly, there was a burst of gunfire from behind the bushes on both sides of the house.
The Astronian special agents screamed in pain before collapsing onto the ground.
"Fire!" Caro shouted.
He finally realized that he had been ambushed as he returned fire.
Both sides were immediately locked in a fierce battle.
The Vadesian special agents also joined in the fight.
At this moment, members of Task Force Rose also appeared.
They had been lying in wait nearby and finally showed themselves when the time was right.
The enemy special agents were dumbfounded as they were told there were not a lot of soldiers
defending the house.
But what they were seeing now were plenty of reinforcements.
Willow and Zoey were frightened by the sound of gunshots blazing outside the house.
Zoey began to panic. "What's happening? Why are they fighting outside?"
Willow replied, "Perhaps the enemies are trying to take down the house."
"This is bad! The sound of gunfire seems very close! We only have a few hundred men stationed here
to defend the house. We might be in danger!" Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
"Calm down, Zoe. We should stay here and see what happens next."
"Then let's head outside to see what's going on."
Willow stopped Zoe. "We should stay inside where it's safe. We can just watch from the living room
downstairs if you really want to see what's happening."
Zoey nodded her head, and the two of them headed to the living room.
There were 30 armored soldiers standing guard.
The rest of the armored soldiers were stationed outside the house.
Willow asked, "What's happening outside?"
The leader of the armored soldiers replied, "Enemy special agents are trying to attack the house, Lady
Willow. We're currently defending the house with all we've got."
"Huh? What do they hope to achieve?"
"General Obrien of Astronia is currently under heavy siege. He wishes to kidnap you in order to
threaten Lord Caspian himself!"
Willow became terrified at the thought that her being in danger would be extremely detrimental to
Caspian and the tides of war.
Willow asked, "How many enemies are there?"
"Around a thousand."
"What? But we only have a hundred soldiers around the house… This is bad!"
"Please don't worry, Lady Willow. Task Force Rose set up an ambush. We'll definitely drive the enemies
away!"
"Please be safe out there."
"Don't worry. You should retreat back inside the house, Lady Willow. It's dangerous out here."
Willow and Zoey hurriedly retreated back into the bedroom.
…
Meanwhile, outside of Riverside Villa, the enemy forces had lost 200 of their men. However, they still
had the advantage in numbers.
Both the armored soldiers and Task Force Rose had already joined the fight.
"Get in and capture Caspian's wife immediately!" Caro ordered upon realizing that the fight was going
smoothly.
Their mission would be completed once they captured Willow.
The special agents also wanted to finish the mission as soon as possible.
The armored soldiers stationed inside the living room began to open fire when enemy special agents
entered the house.
The enemy never expected that there would still be more soldiers stationed inside the house.
"Don't stop! Keep going! They don't have much troops left!" Caro shouted.
