King David died in battle, and the people of the sea captured the city of Dimez, and none of the soldiers in the city survived.

The whole city was burned and completely destroyed.

Subsequently, the people of the sea went south along the east coast.

Because most of the coastal cities have completely retreated to the inland, the sea people's fleet quickly attacked the royal city located on the southeast corner of the mainland.

When the warships of the Sea People appeared in front of the king city, the air in the whole king city seemed to tense up.

"what happened?"

"Are there so many warships of the Sea People? There is too much difference in the previous information! The number has doubled!"

"I just got the news not long ago that it was only the vanguard of the sea people who attacked the east coast."

Although the sea people's combat effectiveness is indeed very strong, but King David led the army to fight to the death is not weak, Dimez City could have held on for a while longer.

However, the follow-up army of the Sea People rushed over on the fourth day of the Battle of Dimez City, and their strength more than doubled, completely crushing King David's army. The sun fell.

Pastor sat on the upper seat with an indifferent expression.

In such a large political affairs hall, people were arguing one after another.

He sat quietly, his mind was blank, he didn't think about anything, he didn't bother to think about anything, the quarrels of ministers and nobles around him only made him feel noisy.

"What is their purpose?"

"If it's just money, we can just give them a lot of money and let them go."

"That's right, those sea people will be happy to get a lot of money without fighting."

"Your Highness, we should send envoys to negotiate peace with them."

Amidst the echoes of the nobles, Pastor raised a mocking arc on the corner of his mouth.

A bunch of idiots.

Up to now, I still can't see the situation clearly, and I can't understand the real purpose of those people at sea.

"idiot!"

Pastor was too lazy to speak, but the white-haired old general Naerte scolded him unceremoniously.

"Don't you understand? If they just want to plunder like pirates, why would they massacre civilians and burn down cities?"

Pirates just go to sea to plunder, and their lair is still on land, on islands.

But the sea people are completely different, they don't have a so-called rear, they live on the battleship, their families and all their property are on the battleship.

In this race, everyone is a warrior on the battlefield.

The old general's expression was cold, and he scanned the people present with heavy eyes.

"Their purpose is not property at all, but—"

When the old general said the last sentence, the entire political affairs hall was in an uproar.

……

At the same time, the news was also heard in Schulte City in the northwest, which is far away from Wangcheng.

The red-haired thief leaned against the flower stand in the corridor, with one leg crossed.

He lowered his eyes and gently twirled a flower with one hand.

It stands to reason that the news reaching Schulte City was slower than King City. The reason why they got the news so quickly this time was because Hidir, who had been away for several months, came back suddenly and told them about it.

The Thousand-faced Phantom Thief, who was used to traveling in places with treasures, couldn't stay in Schulte City for less than half a month. After saying hello to Mia, he ran to Mongast Country.

In just a few months, he caused quite a commotion in the two big cities of Moncaster.

Later, when he heard the news that the people of the sea attacked Portoyas, Hidir went to the east coast to find out the situation, but he saw the cruel acts of the people of the sea massacring and destroying cities one after another with his own eyes.

This made the strange thief's mood extremely bad for a while.

He wanted to spy on these sea people secretly, so when the sea people fought against King Davey, he went north along the coastline alone, only to find out about the sea people and their follow-up fleet by accident.

"In other words, it is likely that King David decided to stick to Dimez City because he knew about it."

Mia sighed.

"I'm afraid he also guessed the purpose of these sea people, so he made such an arrangement."

"So, what is the purpose of those sea people?"

As Xidir asked, he raised his hand and handed the flower that he had twirled for a long time to Mia.

Mia raised her hand subconsciously to pick it up, but suddenly the other hand stretched out from the slanted ground, and took the flower first.

Shidir looked up and clicked his tongue.

"Tsk, our new crown prince..."

Before he finished his provocative title, Sardis raised his hand and threw the flower back to him, and Hidir subconsciously caught it.

"Their purpose is to migrate," Sardis said.

"Migration?"

Xidir frowned, and in the next second, his originally lazy eyes suddenly became sharp.

He woke up suddenly.

Indeed, all the people of the sea are soldiers, and they come across the vast ocean, and all their families and wealth are brought on the warship all the way south.

They migrated from their original place of residence to find a new place to settle for their people.

They took a fancy to Portoyas.

What they want to snatch from the Podoyas people is not mere property, what they want is the entire Podoyas continent.

They will perish in the kingdom of Podojas.

They will destroy the family of the Podojas.

They want to take this continent for themselves.

They want to multiply and thrive on this continent and become the new masters of this land.

Xidir clenched his hands tightly, and his gaze was unprecedentedly cold at this moment.

The flower was crushed at his fingertips, and the juice stained his fingers red.

This war is not simply a war between countries.

It is a life-and-death battle between one nation and another.

…………

........................

The warships of the Sea People arrived near the coast of the royal city, and fought fiercely with the Portoyas navy at the mouth of the Fadagaro River.

However, whether it is the speed or hardness of the battleship, the people of the sea are far better than the Portoyas navy.

The battle on the sea is completely one-sided.

After two days of fierce fighting, the Portoyas navy was defeated.

Most of the warships were sunk, and a few surrendered.

Afterwards, the warships of the Sea People sailed into the estuary with the surrendered troops, followed the Fadagaro River upstream, and headed for the royal city.

On the day when the warships of the Sea People approached the city, the sky was clear and cloudless, and the warm sun shone on the huge and prosperous city on the ground.

Pastor stood on the high tower of the palace, looking into the distance.

The wind whizzed past from high in the sky, blowing his jet-black forehead and waving endlessly in front of his eyes.

He watched the countless battleships approaching from the Fadagaro River in the distance, overlapping and densely packed, like sharks swarming after smelling the smell of blood.

They opened their sharp teeth, biting and devouring the flesh and blood of their prey bit by bit, and devoured the prey to death.

At the end of his field of vision, he couldn't see the coast in the distance, but he seemed to be able to vaguely hear the roar of the waves coming from the sea.

One moment, one moment.

It slapped heavily on the cliff, making a deafening sound, as if it was a cry from the depths of the sea.

When the warships of the Sea People sailed below the city, the soldiers of Portoyas silently stood on the city wall and looked down at the endless stream of warships on the river.

The long city walls were silent.

Only the king's flag of Portoyas was flying high on the city wall, making a fluttering sound.

There was silence between heaven and earth.

It was as if time stood still at this moment.

Then, there was a loud bang.

A boulder hit.

It shattered the silent sky and smashed hard on the wall of the royal city.

That seemed to announce the beginning of war.

The moment it fell on the city wall, countless boulders followed closely behind, roaring.

The boulder poured down like a torrential rain, smashing countless Portoyas warriors on the city wall into a pulp.

The stones that flew over the city wall smashed down the houses in the city.

boom!

Boom!

The huge battleship rushed over and slammed into the gate in the city wall fiercely.

The gates are shaking, the walls are trembling.

The battleship's head, made of steel, had an extremely hard ram, shining a cold luster in the sunlight.

Every time it hits, it leaves deep marks on the gate.

The rocket fell from the sky and fell into the city.

Countless fireworks ignited in the city.

Countless houses were set on fire, countless people were buried in the collapsed houses, and people's painful cries resounded from the ground.

Blood oozed from the stone and flowed down the ground.

The soldiers braved the rain of stones and sharp arrows with their flesh and blood, desperately fighting the invaders.

The blood that flowed from their fall stained the walls they held.

Pastor stood on the high tower of the palace, looking at all this.

He looked at the once bustling city full of smoke.

He watched his people run and howl in a rain of fire and stone.

He watched the warriors of Portoyas continue to fall on the city wall, blood flowing like rivers.

Pastor opened his eyes, even though his eyes were hurt by the howling wind, he was still staring at everything in the distance.

It's not that he hasn't been on the battlefield.

But every time he went to the battlefield, he was at the center of the army, under the protection of countless people.

Just like now.

His gray-haired grandfather led the soldiers to fight to the death on the city wall, while he... was protected in the deepest part of the palace.

Looking at the distant battlefield expressionlessly, Pastor clenched his hand hanging by his side into a fist, and the veins on the back of his hand bulged.

What is he—

……

………………

one day.

Two days.

Three days.

Time passed day by day, and the war became more tragic and cruel day by day.

There are ruins and broken tiles all over the city, and the houses near the city wall are almost in ruins.

Among the ruins, corpses piled up like mountains.

The injured person lay there with blank eyes, numbly waiting for the arrival of death.

The weeping of the townspeople was endless.

Countless warships of the Sea People surrounded this huge city, making this city, known as the Pearl of the Sea, an isolated island on the sea.

The waves came.

The sharks are raging.

Wangcheng is isolated and helpless.

The Sea People's offensive became more and more fierce day by day.

The city wall could no longer withstand the falling stone rain, and countless cracks appeared on the city wall little by little.

Inside, food, grass and supplies are rapidly depleted.

Outside, there was no support army coming.

Countless soldiers die every day.

An atmosphere of despair began to spread in the royal city.

Food is exhausted, aid is exhausted, and people die.

Wangcheng has reached the final moment of life and death.

…………

In the middle of the night, heavy footsteps sounded in the palace.

The blood-stained boots stepped on the smooth white jade floor of the palace, leaving dark footprints.

The gray-haired old general had a very thin face, and there were deep black and blue marks under his eyes.

The armor on his body was full of scratches from sharp weapons, and the blood stains that could not be wiped away were seeping in the gaps.

After several days of non-stop fighting, there was no trace of fatigue on his face. Although that face was full of wrinkles, it was still as firm as a rock.

He was full of bloody aura from top to bottom, and he also had a strong evil aura. He had killed countless people in the past few days.

Under the white hair, his eyes are still bright, and there is always an unquenchable fighting spirit in them.

The old general walked forward quickly, and the armor on his body made a slight knocking sound in the silent night.

Dozens of knights also wearing blood-stained armor followed closely behind him.

The old general opened the door, and there was only one lamp burning in the small government office, and a figure appeared in the faint light.

Pastor, who was sitting in the government affairs room, looked up at the grandfather who walked into the room.

The dim lights in the room flickered in his black eyes, making it difficult for people to see the expression in his eyes clearly at this moment.

"His Royal Highness Pastor."

Nart looked at his grandson, the former crown prince.

"I have sent someone to open the secret passage at the bottom of the city."

Pastor looked at him without saying a word.

"You leave the secret passage tonight."

The old general said decisively in a tone that could not be refuted, and then looked back at the dozens of knights behind him.

"Their loyalty is trustworthy, and they will escort you to the north to find Shalam."

"..."

Facing the old man's almost commanding tone, Pastor still just looked at the old general quietly without speaking.

Suddenly, a knight hurried over.

"Your Excellency, the princess does not want to leave with us."

The old general frowned, and said, "I'll go and have a look."

…………

In the palace of the princess, Princess Opelilla, who was as beautiful as before, was sitting on a stone chair.

The invaders approached the city, but there was no worry or uneasiness on her face.

Everything that happened outside seemed to have no effect on her.

"Princess, the royal city is very dangerous now, just in case, please leave with us, we will escort you to a safe place."

A knight commander has been persuading her for a long time.

The maids around her also kept persuading her to leave as soon as possible.

But no matter how the people around her persuaded her, she still sat there quietly with an indifferent expression.

Her gaze was very indifferent, and as usual, no waves could be seen on that face that was so beautiful that it was not like a mortal.

The old general Nart who came there looked at the woman who disliked him from the beginning to the end, frowned, and said in a stiff tone: "Now the royal city is in danger, for your safety, please follow the instructions immediately. I will wait for the arrangement and leave the royal city."

Princess Opelilla raised her eyes and glanced at Nart without emotion.

"no need."

Wang Hao's words made the old general frowned even deeper.

"I said, for your safety—"

The princess interrupted him.

"I should have died long ago."

She said, an understatement.

She should have died long ago.

In that dark night, she was killed by the child she gave birth to.

It's just that for some reason, she survived and gasped for a while.

But all fates have long been doomed and cannot be changed.

It's like King David didn't die at the hands of his own son in Schulte, but still died in another city.

Her fate will eventually return to the right track.

Princess Opelilla closed her eyes and turned her head sideways, which was a gesture of rejection.

At this moment, a hand swung down heavily, slashing at the back of her neck.

The princess fell on the chair and passed out.

The maid on the side covered her mouth that was about to scream, and stared blankly at Pastor who knocked the princess unconscious with a knife in his hand.

Everyone in the room was stunned.

The old general Nart also looked at Pastor in astonishment.

No one thought that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, who has always been gentle and polite, would do such a thing as knocking the princess unconscious.

After Pastor knocked Princess Opelila unconscious with his palm, he turned to look at the knight commander beside him.

"Take the princess and leave."

"Yes, yes, Your Highness."

The knight commander stuttered in response.

In the dead of night, a group of people quietly came to a dark room in the basement of the palace.

Through this dark room, you can go to the secret passage at the bottom of the palace. The secret passage leads to an underground river below the royal city, and you can leave the royal city at an extremely fast speed along the underground river.

The secret door of the dark room opened, and the long stone steps led to the dark underground.

The knight commander led dozens of selected loyal knights to walk down first.

Then, a strong middle-aged woman carefully walked down the stone steps holding the princess who was still in a coma.

Pastor stood in front of the secret door, looking down at the stone steps in front of him that slanted downward, and the end was hidden in the darkness.

His side cheeks flickered in the dim light.

The old general stood aside and looked at Pastor.

His face was still cold, as if he was born with a stern look.

He watched Pastor walk towards the secret door, his eyes showed a touch of tenderness and reluctance.

This farewell is forever.

The look of reluctance in his eyes was fleeting.

After taking one last look at his grandson who was about to leave forever, the old general's eyes showed determination again.

Snapped!

Pastor, who walked before the secret passage, suddenly raised his hand, and slapped heavily on the stone protruding from the stone wall.

In the old general's violently constricted pupils, there was a bang, and the boulder fell, completely blocking the entrance to the secret passage.

In order to prevent the enemy from chasing, 10 minutes after the broken stone fell, the stone steps leading to the secret passage from here will collapse completely.

The old man stared blankly at Pastor who was standing in front of the broken stone, and the stiff muscles on his face twitched uncontrollably.

His lips moved, but no sound came out.

"You told me since I was a child that I am the crown prince and the master of this city."

Pastor turned his back to him, still maintaining a posture of punching the stones on the wall.

"As long as my father's royal decree has not been proclaimed in this city, I will still be the crown prince!"

He said, every word.

The deep voice almost burst out from the depths of his throat, from the depths of his chest.

"Never, the crown prince who abandoned the royal city and fled!"
