"Yes!" Although Sylvia didn't understand why, she immediately complied.
After Caspian handed the dagger to her, he lifted Macy with both hands.
Macy's heart raced, and her face flushed.
Caspian actually wanted to carry her with so many people around.
She felt a bit overwhelmed and shy.
But since Caspian didn't say anything, she simply wrapped her arms around his neck.
This was probably her only chance to get close to him.
The reason Caspian personally carried Macy was that he felt she had made significant contributions this time. She even assassinated Camden.
She was now a hero of Diatoran.
As the Diatoranian God of War, it was only appropriate for him to carry her out.
The members of Phoenix Vanguard and the armored battalion were deeply moved to see Caspian carrying Macy out.
Caspian treated his subordinates so well.
He carried Macy in his arms and walked out of the prison cell while Macy walked in front with the soldiers to clear the way outside.
In truth, Sylvia's heart was now filled with envy toward Macy. She wished she were the one being carried.
The Phoenix Vanguard members stood by, guarding Caspian.
At this moment, Macy felt like the happiest woman in the world.
She even felt like she was dreaming.
She had infiltrated the enemy country and accomplished the assassination mission. Although she was heavily injured, being in Caspian's arms this instant made her feel extremely happy.
Though she was a brave warrior as the captain of Phoenix Vanguard, deep down, she was also just a woman.
Being held by Caspian like this made all her suffering worthwhile.
The armored soldiers outside were extremely excited to see Caspian carrying Macy out.
They had initially thought the rescue mission would be very dangerous.
However, seeing Caspian bringing Macy out safely put their mind at ease.
After Caspian carried Macy out, he immediately had the accompanying military doctor provide her with emergency treatment.
Macy didn't want to leave Caspian's embrace as she wished to be held by him forever.
"Tear this place to the ground!" Caspian instructed Sylvia.
"Yes!" Sylvia acknowledged.
She went outside and ordered the troops there, "Under Lord Caspian's command, tear this place to the ground!"
The armored battalion immediately began bombarding the prison.
In the next moment, cannons filled the sky. Death Mountain Prison was left crumbling.
Some of the prison guards inside wanted to hide and wait for the bombardment to end before making their escape.
Little did they know, the prison collapsed directly and buried them all alive.
In just a few minutes, Death Mountain Prison became a ruin, and everyone inside perished.
At this time, Caspian received a call from the armored battalion's commander, Ylra Hauss.
"Lord Caspian, the new King of Filren did send troops to reinforce Death Mountain Prison," Ylra said.
"Yes! I'll complete the mission at all costs!" Ylra replied firmly.
After that, Caspian hung up the phone.
He looked at the members of Phoenix Vanguard and the armored battalion. He ordered, "Everyone, listen up! Filren's capital now has very few troops. We'll attack their capital directly!"
"Yes!" everyone shouted in unison.
Knowing that Caspian would lead them to attack Filren's capital, the armored battalion and Phoenix Vanguard were extremely excited.
They were now motivated and full of fighting spirit.
"This battle is crucial for us. As long as we can break into Filren's capital, the entire nation will be finished. We must go all out to win!" Caspian emphasized.
"Understood!" the soldiers shouted.
"Let's move out!" Caspian didn't waste any more time and immediately gave the order.
The armored battalion and Phoenix Vanguard immediately set out.
Macy, who was bandaging her wounds, was extremely excited upon hearing this news.
"Hurry and help me dress my wounds. I want to join the battle with Lord Caspian later!" Macy urged eagerly.
"Captain Osborne, your injuries are too severe. You can't take any more risks! You should heal your wounds first," the military doctor advised.
"I'm the captain of Phoenix Vanguard. I want to fight alongside everyone. Moreover, the outcome of this battle will determine the overall situation. I wish to participate," Macy insisted.
"But your injuries are too severe. I'm sure Lord Caspian won't allow you to continue fighting," the doctor said.
"Enough. I've made up my mind. Hurry and help me dress my wounds," Macy urged impatiently.
Caspian led the army down a side road. They passed through a tunnel in the mountains behind Death Mountain Prison and saved a lot of time.
