Mage Veigar

Chapter 866 Abandoning the Son and Escape

The war between the United Kingdom of Hundred Races and the Kingdom of Jialan has begun.

This war was truly a battle of a mantis trying to stop a chariot and an egg hitting a rock.

Although the number of both sides was almost the same, both were around 150,000, and the United Kingdom of Hundred Races even had 50,000 more, in terms of quality, even if the United Kingdom of Hundred Races added another 100,000, it would still not be enough.

Because the predecessor of Jia Lan's 150,000 troops was the Imperial Central Army.

After Vega accepted the Empire's surrender, he naturally took over the Empire's most elite Central Army, which was equipped with a considerable number of high-level forces, even reaching a density of one magician per company.

Compared to other troops where not even one magician is assigned to a regiment, the overall strength of the Central Army is terrifying. Moreover, the United Kingdom of Hundred Races has a shortage of high-level military personnel, far from the level of one magician per regiment. A brigade is only equipped with five to seven magicians.

So the moment the hand-to-hand combat started.

The army of the United Kingdom of Hundred Races was in utter despair.

If the previous star magic made them tremble, then after the hand-to-hand combat, they understood why the empire was called the invincible army. The strength of this central army was simply appalling.

In a 1v1 situation, they cannot defeat the Imperial Army.

Once it is a 2v1 or 3v1 situation, and they are planning to besiege an Imperial Army soldier, then the professionals will rush in like firefighters.

If the professional is not able to do so, then the magician will provide fire support at this time.

Their number of magicians is less than that of the Imperial Army, and naturally there are also fewer professionals. In a head-on collision, they have no chance of fighting back at all.

If it were just this, it wouldn’t be the most terrifying thing.

What really shocked them was that the coordination and understanding between the Central Army's senior forces and ordinary soldiers was so perfect that they were like twins with telepathic connection.

Taking the company as a unit, magicians and professionals keep an eye on all directions and can always provide magic support to the points where it is most needed. Ordinary soldiers also seem to have great trust in professionals and magicians and completely put their backs to them.

Energy and spirit, coupled with tacit teamwork.

In addition, the middle and low-level officers have easy control over frontal combat.

The Imperial Army truly demonstrated their invincibility in the head-on collision. The so-called invincibility of the army is never a false reputation. It is just a pity that due to Vega's unconventional play, the Imperial Army's strengths have not been brought into play.

Facing such a powerful opponent.

The United Kingdom of Hundred Races was defeated and was completely defeated without even having the chance to fight back.

Meru Scimitar was disheartened after witnessing this war.

Although he knew that the Jialan Empire was powerful, he did not expect that it was so unreasonable that they were defeated by only sending an army of 150,000.

and this.

It's just the tip of the iceberg of the Jialan Empire.

It turned out that he was quite confident in the strength of his country, and thought that compared with the Jialan Kingdom, it was probably the difference between a cat and a tiger. The tiger was indeed strong, but as long as the operation was done properly, it was also possible to pull out the teeth from the tiger's mouth.

Now it seems that he was wrong, very wrong.

Compared with the tiger of the Jialan Empire, he is not worthy of being a cat. It would be more appropriate to describe him as an ant.

It was not until this moment that Meru Scimitar suddenly realized.

He overestimated himself. Perhaps from the very beginning, the Kingdom of Jialan had never thought of annexing the United Kingdom of Hundred Races...

Just like a tiger doesn't care about the life or death of an ant.

Everything is just his own wishful thinking.

He unilaterally believed that the Kingdom of Jialan would not allow others to sleep peacefully where the tiger was sleeping, and coupled with his greed, this angered the sleeping tiger and put himself into an irretrievable situation.

It can indeed be described as a disaster from which there is no return.

Even if he didn't lose to the Jialan Empire today, he would be torn into pieces by the Western countries in the future. The Western countries fell into Vega's trap because of him, and they would surely face the most tragic defeat. The entire West would probably be seriously injured by this war and unable to fight against the Far Eastern tiger of the Jialan Empire.

"At least this time, the United Kingdom of Hundred Races can go down in history."

Meru Scimitar gave a wry smile and said this to himself.

Because this war is enough to rewrite the entire world's war situation, it will have a significant and far-reaching impact on the decline of the West, the rise of the East... and even the future unification of the East under the Jialan Continent. The trigger for this war is their United Kingdom of Hundred Races.

Without the United Kingdom of Hundred Races, the Jialan Empire would not have been able to catch the turtle in the jar so easily.

of course.

This does not rule out the courage of the Jialan Empire itself.

He racked his brains to figure out how the Jialan Kingdom discovered that he was secretly colluding with the West again, and then took away the border defense and sent all the troops here to ambush them. Because he was very sure that his participation in the Western Nations Conference had not been leaked, without any evidence, even Vega would not dare to play such a big game.

In the end, Meru Scimitar could only attribute the matter to the fact that the intelligence system of the Galan Empire was too powerful.

"Father, we should go."

Dill couldn't help but wake up the dazed Meru Scimitar at this time.

Meru Scimitar sighed and said, "Let's go. One day I will collect this debt. I, Meru Scimitar, can start from scratch once, and I can do it a second and third time. As long as I am still alive, I still have a chance!"

creak-

open the door.

Meru Scimitar took a lingering look at the throne in the hall, and finally looked away.

But just as they were about to leave, a man in a black robe suddenly appeared in front of them and said, "Go back, please don't make things difficult for us."

"The Jialan Army?!"

Meru Scimitar's expression finally changed: "When did you get here?"

"We belong to the Central Army of the Jialan Empire, the Shadow Group."

The hoarse voice of the black-robed man echoed: "We have been here since the beginning of the war. However, our order is to keep an eye on King Meru Scimitar and not let him leave the palace."

"How dare a mere shadow mage order the king around?!"

Meru Scimitar snorted, "Dil, kill him for me."

"Father?"

Dill Scimitar never thought that his father would let him fight with a shadow mage. Even ordinary people know that when the level difference is not big, the battle between an elemental mage and a shadow mage is tantamount to seeking death.

But since childhood I have been afraid of my father.

Dill finally chose to pick up the staff and fight the Shadow Mage.

While Dill was attracting the Shadow Mage's attention, Meru Scimitar turned around and ran away.

It was obvious that he had abandoned his son Dill and tried to use Dill to buy time for himself to escape.

But this plan obviously failed.

Because at the same time, black-clad figures appeared one after another, and more than thirty shadow mages had blocked Meru Scimitar's way. At this time, his son Dill Scimitar also died under the sword of the shadow mage with a scream.

"Surrender! I surrender!"

"Don't kill me, please don't kill me!"

When Meru Scimitar saw that the game was hopeless, he immediately knelt on the ground, no longer having any of the dignity and dignity he had previously had as a king.
