Mage Veigar

Da da da--
nonstop.
Vega risked being discovered by the Kingdom Army and led his team of mages across city after city. Now they finally arrived at a small town affiliated to the water city of Nila, which is less than 75 kilometers away from the city of Nila.
"General, will Her Highness Xiya really be here?"
Taking advantage of the break, the captain of the mages asked in confusion.
Vega nodded worriedly. Based on the dynasty map and the current defense status of the kingdom’s army in the port city, he speculated that Carol and Xia would definitely choose this city to cross the river to the west bank.
Because only the city of Nila is closest to the west bank, and its defense is the weakest.
You know, Princess Xia has only two choices on the east bank, either follow him to the end, or choose to cross the river to the west bank. Now that she has escaped, she must be preparing to cross the river to the west bank.
Vega had expected to leave Saint Laurent half a month ago.
Princess Xia and Carol will definitely cross the river to the west bank from Nila City because there is no more ideal place than this city.
Of course, a shrewd general would never choose Nila City.
This is like the official road in a war, which is easy to walk on, but attracts attention, and the winding mountain road is difficult and slow, but can produce amazing results. Therefore, if Vega had to choose, he would definitely not choose Nila City.
But Carol and Sia are not among them.
In Vega’s opinion, with the IQ of these two people, they would probably... no, they would definitely choose Nila City.
So he rode non-stop for half a month, passing one city after another, for fear that he would receive news that the dynasty army on the west bank was attacking the city of Nila. Fortunately, when he was about to arrive at the city of Nila, this did not happen.
The fact that the Dynasty Army has not yet attacked the city of Nila also means that—
Princesses Shia Saint Laurent and Carol are still here.
The reason is simple. Cities that seem easy to cross the river will often be subject to strict inspection by the kingdom’s army.
After all, in addition to the 20 troops that reinforced the Saint Laurent front and the 10 troops that went south to pursue Callison, the Kingdom Army also buried 20 soldiers in the port city to prevent the Dynasty Army from making a comeback.
Therefore, although the intensity of censorship in the kingdom has been reduced, it is still not easy to get away with it.
Carol and Xia's idea of crossing the river to the west bank by merchant ship without being scrutinized by the kingdom is simply impossible in Vega's opinion. The only way is to notify the west bank by letter, let the west bank launch a surprise attack on Nila City and bring back Princess Xia.
"Carol, Shia, I hope you won't do such stupid things."
Vega is now particularly worried that the two have not realized that the truly formidable enemy at this stage is not the kingdom's army on the east coast, but the dynasty army on the west coast.
These dynasty armies are probably no longer the dynasty armies they once were.
If the letter revealed the location, the Dynasty Army might not send a rescue force but an assassination force. They don't want Xia to return to the West Bank even more than the United Kingdom.
If Shia died, everything would be over for Vega.
That’s why they say we are not afraid of god-like opponents but are afraid of pig-like teammates.
At this moment, Vega felt that he not only met god-like teammates, but also met two pig-like teammates.
Now in the context.
Anyone with a little bit of intelligence can clearly know that there is no other way out except relying on him. Xia still has some value to him, but she is a complete stumbling block to other forces.
This is the unspoken rule.
Things that have no value will be discarded, and things that are worthless but easily become a nuisance to others will be destroyed.
————On the west bank of the dynasty, the great city of Dunbu.
This is the new capital temporarily decided by the royal family of the dynasty. It is also a super important city named after the Donbu River. It was built at a time comparable to the capital Saint Laurent and is also equipped with a crystal hub.
Inside the palace.
A man in his 40s sat on the gilded throne.
This man is Kaia Saint Laurent, the eldest prince of the Holy Dynasty and the uncle of Princess Xia. He is now the uncrowned emperor of the West Coast Dynasty Army and nominally controls half of the dynasty on behalf of Xia.
At this moment, he was holding a letter and reading it carefully.
The source of this letter is self-evident. It is naturally a letter for help sent by Carol.
This letter for help not only detailed the current situation of Xia and Carol, but also exposed their current location. Carol obviously had unconditional trust in the royal family of the West Coast.
His hooked nose wrinkled.
The bearded prince glanced at the old general Xi Lun and said, "General, how many people know about the princess's letter for help?"
"Reporting to the eldest prince, it has been dealt with."
Kaia Saint Laurent relaxed his brows and smiled knowingly: "As expected of the most senior general in our dynasty, you are really flawless in your work. I'll leave this matter to you. Be sure to bring back Her Royal Highness the Princess from Nila, but——"
The eldest prince turned his back to the old general Theon and did not say the second half of his sentence.
"My lord understands."
The old general obviously understood what he meant. He laughed and said, "I will find an excuse to order the army to attack the water city of Nila to attract the attention of the kingdom's army so that the shadow and elemental mage team can land successfully..."
Old General Theon didn't say the rest of the sentence.
But the eldest prince turned around, and the two looked at each other, both revealing meaningful smiles.
Watched old general Theon leave the hall.
A murderous light appeared in the eyes of the eldest prince Kaia Saint Laurent. He really wanted to bring back Princess Xia, but definitely not a living person. What he really wanted to bring back was Princess Xia's body.
Family affection?
It's a pity that the eldest prince only has hatred for Xia and no affection at all.
Originally, as the crown prince of the dynasty, he should have inherited the throne. Unfortunately, the fifth prince's wife gave birth to a baby girl. According to the ancestral precepts of the Holy Dynasty, once a female is born in the direct line of blood, she will have priority in inheriting the throne.
Not only the royal family knew this, but the common people also knew it.
Therefore, Xia was appointed as the crown prince from the day she was born. At the same time, as the only female born in the royal family in thousands of years, she was loved and supported by the people of the whole country. A large number of civilians joined the army under the banner of fighting for Her Royal Highness the Princess.
Once Xia turns 18, she will be an adult.
Even if Saint Laurent XVIII were still alive, he would have to abdicate and let Xia inherit the dynasty, otherwise the entire dynasty would even be in turmoil.
Therefore, the eldest prince, who was deprived of his status as crown prince, naturally had only hatred for Xia.
After learning that Xia was not dead and was even preparing to return to the West Coast, he would never give up his lost rights. He had to keep Xia on the East Coast and put the blame on the kingdom's army.
If Xia were to return to the West Coast.
Then his coveted throne would be lost again.
