Mage Veigar

Chapter 803 The Assassin Attacks
There is no need to explain how terrible war is.

The last time the magic named "Hope" was activated, the scene of 300,000 troops coming back to life and defeating an army of more than 2 million is still vivid in people's minds. This is a powerful strategic weapon that can change the situation of the war.

In the eyes of various countries.

One war species is enough to match an army of one million.

Just as the War Seeds were held in the hands of the Gangti City-State and Vega dreamed of taking them away, now that the War Seeds are controlled by Vega, other countries certainly want to take away these two "nuclear weapons", and even if they cannot take them away, they will find ways to destroy them.

This is the purpose of the assassination along the way.

All countries launched assassination attempts with the idea of ​​destroying the War Race even if they couldn't kill Vega.

same.

The assassination teams from the Gangti City State and the Holy Dragon State that infiltrated the city also had this purpose.

As the world formed an alliance, the assassination teams of the two countries have reached a cooperative relationship and formulated a plan based on the action guidelines given by the head of the empire, Eldir Nolan.

The plan is very simple and crude, and there are mainly two steps.

The first step is for half of the people to attract Vega's attention, or to entangle Vega, and the second step is for the other half to bring back the helpless War Species, or use it on the spot.

The way to use a war species is to touch the body of the war species and inject magic power into it.

If it is a low-level magician, it will take about an hour to inject magic power to trigger the item, but if it is a high-level magician, it will only take less than a minute for the war species to be used.

Once you enter the state of magic chanting, you must not be interrupted. This is the characteristic of divine magic.

By then, Vega will definitely play with fire and get burned, and personally experience the feeling of being hit by divine magic.

Besides.

The Pope also issued an order.

If it is determined that the war seeds cannot be brought back or used, it is allowed to destroy the war seeds on the spot.

As long as Vega's war species is destroyed, this war will basically become a foregone conclusion. Without the threat of divine magic, a star elemental mage alone cannot fight against the whole world.

The goal is very clear.

The plan is simple enough.

A total of 10 high-level wizards and 7 holy dragon messengers are preparing to launch the assassination in five days.

The reason why the time was set at five days later was because a large amount of intelligence needed to be collected, the travel patterns of Vega and the Warbreeds needed to be understood, and the routes of attack and retreat needed to be familiarized.

at the same time.

Vega still didn't feel any sense of crisis. At noon the next day, he formally introduced the two war girls to Xia Saint Laurent, and hoped that Xia would not misunderstand him.

When Xia heard the word "war seed", her nervous expression immediately softened.

Because through the last misunderstanding, she already knew what war species were. For war species, unless there is world peace, sooner or later they will need to be used.

Last time, because of Isa, she felt guilty for a long time.

Now that I know about their situation, I immediately feel the urge to make amends.

“I understand. Please don’t worry about me.” Since Vega had explained this to her, the feeling of being cared for made Shia smile sweetly. “If there is anything I can help with, Your Majesty, please let me know. I will do my best to protect the two of them.”

"Don't worry about safety."

Vega didn't pay much attention to what Shia said, because the main purpose of introducing the two girls to Shia this time was to reassure her, not to ask her to help protect the two girls. After all, the two girls stayed by his side during the day and were protected by him personally, and stayed in the next room at night. If there was any situation, he could provide support immediately, so there was no need to worry about the safety factor.

But Xia frowned.

She said with some concern: "Isn't this a bit too casual? Now is a time of trouble. I'm afraid that before the war breaks out next year, the countries will not give up. I think we should arrange some people to protect the two ladies."

Vega hesitated for a moment.

He nodded and said, "I was careless. I will immediately arrange for special personnel to protect Leia and the others. Also, please notify Qi Lisi to increase the patrol intensity in the capital. If any suspicious person is found, kill him first and report later."

"Remind her."

Vega specifically warned: "It is better to kill the wrong person than to let him go. Don't be too soft-hearted. The Jialan Kingdom is now on the edge of a cliff. Any wrong step will lead to death without a burial place."

"I'll tell her."

Xia nodded, and the brief moment of peace passed. Vega began to dispatch guards to be responsible for the safety of the two.

However, since the Jialan Empire is an emerging power, it is actually unable to mobilize too many high-level military forces to protect the two women. After all, a division may not be able to be equipped with a superior elemental mage, so how can it mobilize so many superior mages to be responsible for security?

That being said.

Shia's words made Vega's relaxed nerves slightly tense.

Because he also felt that it was too peaceful, so peaceful that he always felt like something was missing.

Today, after being reminded by Xia, he finally remembered that he had not been assassinated by any force since he approached Saint Laurent City until today. This was really a bit unreasonable. Therefore, Vega suspected that someone had begun to plan an assassination.

Of course, it's just a suspicion.

In fact, Veigar's vigilance was still not very high. After all, this was a heavily guarded palace. He believed that the enemy would not send out too many high-level forces to assassinate him. Every high-level mage was a strategic treasure.

Even the city-state of Gangti.

It is estimated that they can't even produce thirty high-level wizards, let alone other countries.

However, for cautious people, sometimes danger can be turned into safety as long as a little caution is paid attention to.

Xia's subconscious words finally worked one night five days later.

At two o'clock in the morning of that day, when everyone was sleeping soundly, a violent explosion was heard in the east corner of the palace, followed by a huge fire that rose from the sky, illuminating the dark night like day.

The east corner is very close to Vega's bedroom.

It took less than ten minutes to get here from the east corner, so the explosion naturally woke Vega up.

He immediately rushed to the next room and protected the two women, and then asked the guard who came hurriedly, "What happened?"

"Report to your majesty, there is an assassin!"

The guard reported succinctly: "An assassination team of about 7 people was discovered by our mid-level Word Spirit Mage at the east corner when they were sneaking in. They are now entangled with our guards. Judging from the current situation, the enemy will soon break through the defense line and kill us. Your Majesty and Her Royal Highness the Queen ask you to take emergency shelter."
