Mage Veigar

Chapter 312: Test Your Depth

Girl.

Pointed ears.

These two elements directly reminded Vega of a very important person——

Princess Shia Saint Laurent.

The reason why he is so sure is that pointed ears are a characteristic of royal bloodline.

In the Holy Dynasty, although commoners also have slightly pointed ears, those pointed ears are only slightly raised and cannot be seen without close observation.

And so on.

The more noble the bloodline, the closer to the royal family, the more obvious the ear features. From the nobles of the sacred dynasty to the ordinary civilians, the ear features can be used to judge whether a person has a high status.

According to Vega's understanding.

Whether it is the royal family or the side branches, there have always been more men than women. In the entire royal family, there is only one female, Princess Xia, and the rest are all men.

From this, Vega could infer that the shadow mage team must be surrounding Shia, and Shia had the thing that Vega wanted most, which was the key factor in his promotion to a lower-level professional - the awakening potion.

So he ignored the commander of the search kingdom and followed the scouts to the scene of the incident.

A few minutes later.

Veigar came near the granary.

The first thing he saw was Knight Carol protecting Princess Xia behind him, while a squadron of professionals surrounded the two of them, and of course there was also a group of shadow mages lurking in the dark.

With Carol's strength, it might be difficult to defeat so many people, but killing a group of people and then escaping is an easy task. Unfortunately, the shadow mage in the dark held him back.

Carol didn't dare to gamble.

If he leaves Xia's one-meter radius without permission, he will not have the confidence to guarantee Xia's safety. Therefore, even a strong person like Carol can only allow teams of professionals to surround him without any way to stop him.

"Soldiers, answer me, who is your commander?"

Carol shouted at the professionals who surrounded him, "If your leader is that brat Vega, then let him come to see me. I want to see how bold he is to allow his subordinates to surround my princess."

No one responded to Carol's question.

The high-level armed forces have all received professional training, and they will not show things that they shouldn’t show like ordinary soldiers. Therefore, even if Carol guessed that Vega was the commander of this force, no one gave him an answer.

"General, are we going over there?"

Seeing that Vega was unmoved, Adjutant Iroh could not help but remind him: "We are still allies with the Dynasty. Isn't it a bit too much to surround them like this? Besides, our common enemy at this stage is the United Kingdom."

"Let the professional troops launch the attack, and the shadow mages stand by."

Vega thought about it and finally decided to test Carol's strength. Although they were not enemies, Vega still wanted to get more information about the enemy he could not defeat just in case.

As for the casualties of soldiers?
Now the situation is stronger than the person. Vega does not believe that Carol dares to kill his soldiers without authorization when he guesses that these are his troops. The initiative has been on Vega's side from beginning to end. The consequences of breaking off relations are self-evident.

Vega stayed in the shadows while the professionals launched their attacks.

This situation gave Carol a shock.

He didn't expect the enemy to really dare to launch an attack. Could it be that this wasn't Vega's army? But according to his intelligence, the only two forces left in the entire eastern part of the dynasty were Admiral Kellison and the Imperial Army led by Vega.

The scene did not allow him to think much.

As the professionals attacked, Carol could only passively defend.

He used mid-level combat skills to knock out the professionals one by one, but he did not dare to use mid-level magic weapons. Just like in the Vega phenomenon, Carol did not dare to kill any professional.

Once someone dies, I'm afraid it won't end well.

Therefore, he could only hope that the commander of this army would appear soon. Otherwise, if the princess died here, it would be of no use even if he killed everyone here.

"He can't hold on any longer. Everyone, give him some strength."

The sharp-eyed people noticed that Carol's magic shield seemed to have become thinner, so they increased the intensity of the attack. However, since Carol had to fight and protect the princess at the same time, his magic power consumption was 3 to 4 times that of usual. Even he could not withstand such a high-intensity battle.

"Whoohoo-"

Carol was breathing heavily, his eyes roaming around, hoping to find a breakthrough and escape, but unfortunately more and more professionals had rushed in after hearing the news, and had blocked all the retreat routes.

Now let alone bringing Princess Xia.

Even without Princess Xia, there is no way to escape by activating the trick. Any magician would have to wait for death under this net, and Vega almost realized how powerful Carol is.

The maximum magic output is 2.5 hours.

If we remove the factor of Princess Xia, the output can probably be sustained for 6-7 hours.

During this period, 37 lower-ranked professionals fainted. The fainting here can be converted into death x2. The overall strength can probably reach the point of one against 74.

Remove Princess Xia, add mid-level magic weapons, and shadow magic.

Vega could roughly infer that Carol could kill a standard team of professionals by herself. As for the magician, it was unclear for the time being because the power was too great to be tested.

But as long as the Word Mage is deployed, Vega believes that Carol will not be able to fight a mage team.

Therefore, after this test, Vega clearly knew that his overall strength, including endurance, attack, defense... was probably only half of Carol's.

In a one-on-one situation, whether it's a protracted battle or a power confrontation, he may not be Carroll's opponent.

If Carol came to assassinate him, he would probably not be able to resist.

unless--

When Vega is on the battlefield, his troops continuously supply him with magic and mental power, or there is a team of elemental mages equipped with word mages following him 24 hours a day.

Both the former and the latter are full of randomness.

Therefore, Vega listed Carol as one of the most vigilant people. This apprentice of the star magician is definitely not a simple person.

As for killing Carol now?

Vega had thought about it, but considering that he still had to stay in the empire and maintain friendly relations with the dynasty, he had to give up the idea on the spot. Killing a person is easy, but the difficult part is how to deal with the aftermath.

After thinking about all this, Vega walked over from a distance.

He pretended to be angry and shouted, "Stop it!"

A roar instantly quieted the noisy scene, and Vega walked in front of Carol under the star-studded crowd.

He had a surprised expression on his face, and then he said with a look of great sorrow: "Isn't this the Guardian Knight of Carol? Although I know you are powerful, you knocked down my subordinates in front of so many people. How can I explain this to everyone?"

"you!!"

Carol had an angry look on his face. He was almost about to attack again because Vega's evildoer had accused him first.

At the same time, he also vaguely guessed the truth of some things.

Carol narrowed her eyes and looked at Vega: "Little brat, you didn't come here a long time ago and hide behind me to make fun of me, did you?"

"Cough cough cough..."

Vega coughed twice and then said in a confident tone: "Lord Carol, why do you say that? The Empire and the Dynasty have always been allies. In the last breakout, I cooperated very happily with Admiral Callison of your country. How could I order my subordinates to do such a thing to Your Highness the Princess? I only regard you as an enemy because you are so powerful."

"Huh, do you think I will believe it?"

"Absolutely true!"

Vega patted his chest, as if to ask the princess to believe him. At the end, he bowed to the princess and said, "Your Highness, I offer you my most sincere apologies. As noble and intelligent as you are, you will surely believe that I didn't do it on purpose."

Vega's serious look almost made Carol believe it.

But he found that Vega's eyes were always on Princess Sia Saint Laurent's chest, which made Carol finally determine that Vega was seeking revenge and wanted to embarrass him in front of Her Royal Highness the Princess.
