When he woke up, it was already the next day. The second prince asked his chief Great Magician to invite Beta over and get ready to set off.
At this time, Moses was no longer in the camp. He must have returned to the allied army and was ready to command his own army. Ignatsu greeted Beta warmly and chatted with him, as if the incident of Beta not giving him face yesterday did not happen.
Being able to submit and stand tall was the quality that a successful person should have. Ignatsu had already thought it through. Before becoming a real king, his dignity could be completely put aside. Even if he became king, there were many things that he could not do as he pleased. After all, he had helped his father deal with many political affairs, and he knew that sometimes he had to compromise with many people or things.
Because the army was approaching, the army of the royal city had long stopped moving outside the city, and had turned into a defensive position inside the city. The second prince followed his cavalry in high spirits, raising the royal coat of arms flag with a blue shield on a white background. Like a whirlwind, he met up with the army.
The six old men and Moses were waiting for him in front of the army. When they saw the second prince, the seven of them dismounted and bowed to the second prince. Outsiders did not know how much of it was sincere, but the second prince was extremely happy when he saw it. He laughed on horseback. "Everyone, I'll have to trouble you next. As long as we attack the royal city, all of our wishes will be fulfilled."
The seven of them smiled knowingly. The way they looked at the royal city was like how perverts would look at a naked beauty. The weather was very good at this time. The sun was shining brightly, and there were no clouds in the sky. There was a refreshing and clean smell in the air.
"Then let's act according to the original plan."
The second prince waved his hand, and the others bowed again before leading their troops towards the royal city.
As a future king, the second prince naturally would not be the vanguard. Although he was the main attack on the main gate with Moses, in reality, he and his Knight Regiment were only following behind the army, advancing towards the city gate.
Beta followed beside the second prince. Emma and the others were already prepared in his space, ready to come out to fight at any time.
The army of more than 10,000 people was the second prince's biggest reliance. He did not think that his big brother. That heartless King Slayer could gather so many people. He had been acting as bait in Royal City all this time in order to draw the enemy's attention to himself. He had sent his trusted aides to ally with the other lords and promised to exchange benefits.
Now, it seemed that the plan was very successful.
The happiest thing in the world. Nothing could surpass the success of his plan. Moreover, he had assigned Beta and his little sister to get rid of his elder brother's right-hand man. Now, he believed that there was no chance of him losing. Absolutely none.
The second prince was in high spirits. He pointed to the faintly visible city wall in front of him and asked with a smile, "Your Excellency Beta, we will soon be the masters of this country. What do you think now?"
"The person who can be the master of this country is you. Not me. " Beta was being polite. If the second prince did not do anything annoying, he would not bother to target him. "Although it shows that you have a great advantage on the surface, we still have to be careful. After all, if we fail, there will be no room for recovery."
"Don't worry." The second prince waved his hand nonchalantly, looking very confident. "This time, I am sure that he will not be able to make a comeback. Do you think he can turn into an army of thousands? "
Hearing this, Beta frowned and was about to say something.
But the second prince laughed out loud and rode to the front. "Please don't be angry, Sir Hope. Ignatsu was just too happy. That's why he got carried away." The Archmage smiled apologetically at Betta. "Sir Hope, please don't be angry.
Generally speaking. The more powerful a spellcaster was, the more they knew how to behave. For example, Archbishop Edgar, who was killed by Beta and the others. Although he was rotten to the core and evil, at least on the surface, he acted like a saint. If not for the fact that Beta knew that the Spider Queen's archbishop was definitely not a good person, he would not have thought that he was a bad person in such a short time.
After nodding slightly at Beta again, the Archmage quickly walked forward and chased after the second prince.
Beta followed behind them indifferently, but the words of the second prince just now vaguely cast a shadow in Beta's heart.
…
…
About half an hour later, the second prince and the army of Moses had arrived at the main gate of the capital. Meanwhile, the other elders had led their own armies to the designated point in the plan, and they surrounded the king in an airtight encirclement.
The gate of the capital was tightly shut. Not only were there many soldiers standing on it, as if they were facing a great enemy, there were also many Mages of average strength.
In every large-scale war, spellcasters were indispensable main forces. Whether it was offense or defense, spellcasters could play an excellent role. Therefore, in a war, apart from sufficient troops and morale, the number of spellcasters and whether they were strong were also important factors that determined the direction of the war.
"I am the second prince, Ignatsu. The eldest prince killed his father and the king, and plotted to usurp the throne. He is a sinner of Hollevin. As a son, as a prince, I have the obligation to punish him, and I have the right to sentence him for his crimes. If you still have a little conscience and a little bit of the overall situation, please surrender, open the gate, and let us in. I guarantee in the name of the royal family that you will definitely be pardoned, not thrown into prison, and will continue to stay in your original positions. "
Shouting in front of a battle was almost a tradition of Hollevin, and the second prince naturally wouldn't let go of this opportunity to show his face.
However, although the soldiers and generals guarding the city were very nervous, none of them were willing to respond to him.
As time passed, an awkward expression slowly climbed onto Ignatsu's face. On the side, Beta didn't find it very funny. He looked at the soldiers on top of the city wall, and because of the long distance, he could clearly see their expressions.
Almost all the soldiers and generals guarding the city had nervous expressions, but they also had a hint of determination.
Beta was also a man who had also led troops and generals. He definitely had a much better grasp of the atmosphere on the battlefield than anyone else present.
He urged his horse forward two steps and said to the second prince, "Your Highness, I think something is wrong."
The second prince was already in a bad mood at this time, and hearing this, he said, "Mr. Beta, you are too cautious, but excessive caution can be called cowardice. But I know that you are not a coward, because you dared to attack the manor of a large family with only three people. It's just that this kind of large-scale battlefield is different from small-scale fights. What matters is absolute advantage, and as long as the number of people and the formation is enough, no matter how many tricks the other party has, it will be useless, and they won't be able to overturn the sky. "
The second prince completely had the demeanor of an elite war commander. Beta frowned. He knew that the second prince made sense, but the atmosphere on the other side was indeed not right, as if they had some backup plan.
Moses looked on from the side and said with a sarcastic smile, "Although Mr. Beta is a strong man, I don't think he has ever commanded a battle of more than a hundred people. Haha, this is very normal. Later, you just need to back us up and command the battle. If there are any assassins or assassins sneaking over, you will be responsible for the safety of His Highness. "
Moses' words completely regarded Beta as the second prince's guard.
Beta was not angry, but he became more alert and paid attention to the other side's movements.
The second prince glanced at Beta and smiled slightly. At this moment, he finally felt that he had surpassed Beta. For the past few days, he had been completely overshadowed by this person. Whether it was talent or strength, he was inferior to the other party. Even his small tricks were seen through by the other party. He felt very sullen, and now that he finally had a strong point to beat the other party, he immediately felt extremely refreshed, feeling as comfortable as eating an iced watermelon on a hot day.
The depressed feeling of being ignored by the enemy immediately disappeared without a trace. Ignatsu said to his chief Great Mage, "Uncle, I'll have to trouble you first."
The Great Mage nodded, and he stepped out of the army and took a few steps forward.
Seeing him step out, the enemy on the city wall immediately became a little flustered.
The most suitable professions for attacking a city were the two branches of fire Mage and earth Mage. The former could use extremely violent means to forcibly tear down the city wall, while the latter could use their innate ability to break the city wall into pieces. After all, all the city walls were made of stone and mud, which was within their control.
Waves of brown magic ripples emanated from the Chief Magician's body, and then like arrows, they shot into the ground.
The ground gradually shook, and the sound was getting louder and louder. Many horses could not help but retreat, and most importantly, the source of the earthquake was still slowly moving in the direction of the city wall.
There were also many Mages on the city wall, but their strength was average. Although they desperately used dispel magic and magic shock magic, there was no way to stop the source of the earthquake from moving towards them.
The rumbling of the ground shaking was getting louder and louder. Although he was not at the center of the earthquake, Beta still felt that his balance was affected to a certain extent.
This was a very practical skill in earth magic, Earthquake! The sound of the chief Great Mage's earthquake was like a miracle in the eyes of others, but in his eyes, it was actually very ordinary. Beta had seen other players cast it, and it was really scary. It was a real earthquake. Without dispel magic and magic counter, a legendary earth Mage's earthquake could turn a city into ruins.
The source of the earthquake quickly moved to the side of the city gate, and the chief Great Mage's forehead was already slightly sweating.
However, it was all worth it. The capital's city gate was shaking non-stop, and the soldiers guarding above were shaken to the ground. Soon, some of them fell from the top. At the same time, cracks began to appear on the city wall near the city gate, and stones began to fall continuously.
Soon, amidst the sky-shattering cheers, the entire city gate was torn into pieces.
