Mage Veigar

Chapter 152 The curtain opens
The Kingdom's army rushed in.

The Imperial Army was ready for battle.

On this long and narrow street, two large armies met.

There is no retreat, only forward.

For the Imperial Army, the underground air-raid shelter has been exposed, which means that all retreat routes have been lost. In this battle, they can either defeat the Kingdom Army and then form a three-way confrontation with the Kingdom Army's airborne division, or they will be buried here.

For the Kingdom Army, this battle was no suspense.

Adequate supplies, sophisticated equipment, well-trained soldiers... no matter which aspect, they completely crushed the imperial army.

This is a situation where the strong are crushed and the weak fight back.

The Kingdom Army is the strong one, while the Imperial Army is just the weak one.

The battle between the strong and the weak has begun.

The elemental mage troop of the Kingdom Army launched their spells, and fireballs fell from the sky, hitting the charging Imperial Army.

Boom boom boom——

After a round of magic bombardment, the Imperial Army suffered heavy losses, but in this battle, there was no retreat, and the large army charged towards the Kingdom Army despite the magic bombardment.

Of course, the magicians of the Imperial Army were not to be outdone.

The magic chanting of the Mage Squadron was completed almost at the same time as the Kingdom Army, so the terrible magic also hit the Kingdom Army's troops at the same time, causing heavy damage to the Kingdom Army's troops as well.

This round of magic attacks is equally effective.

The number of Imperial troops dropped by 1500, and the number of Royal troops also dropped by 1700.

So the 6500 cannon fodder troops of the Imperial Army collided with the 7300 core troops of the Royal Army.

As the two sides were in close combat, the magicians on both sides did not dare to use high-destructive magic against the large army, because once high-destructive magic was used, it was very likely to hurt friendly forces by mistake.

Of course, this doesn't mean that magicians have nothing to do.

On the contrary, for the magicians, their battle has just begun.

The elemental mages are divided into teams, with the fire mage as the main output point, the wind mage responsible for providing attack coordinates, and the earth mage in charge of defense. The battle between mages has officially begun.

Large fireballs were flying all over the sky.

The magicians of both sides were constantly moving, launching magic bombardments towards the enemy's mage coordinates.

It's a competition of who has enough output, who has longer defense, and who has accurate coordinates.

Of course, there is also a variable on the battlefield—the Shadow Mage.

Once the coordinates are exposed, it is very likely that you will be attacked by enemy magic and assassinated by a shadow mage. Even a first-level shadow mage has a high chance of killing a third-level elemental mage.

unless……

One of the parties has a sufficient number of Word Spirit Mages.

But this is almost impossible. Due to the rarity of Word Wizards, they are usually placed in temporary headquarters during battle to prevent Shadow Wizards from destroying the temporary headquarters.

Therefore, at the end of the battle, whoever has more magicians left will have a greater chance of winning the war.

From the commanding heights, Veigar watched the entire battle through the mirror.

He searched carefully for the temporary headquarters, but found nothing so far.

There are generally two ways to search for a headquarters.

One way is to observe which point has the strongest defense line, and the other way is to keep a close eye on the enemy's scouts or messengers. As long as the battle situation changes, the scouts and messengers must return to the temporary command center to report the situation. At that time, you just need to follow the clues.

Therefore, there is no need to rush now. Even though the Imperial Army has fallen behind in the frontal battle and even the magician army has suffered a terrible blow, Vega must keep a cool head and find the enemy's temporary headquarters.

Time passes slowly.

However, the battle situation was becoming increasingly unfavorable for the Imperial Army. The enemy had already dispatched the Shadow Mage Unit, which directly led to heavy losses in the Imperial Army's mage squadron. The mutual fight at the firepower points was also instantly suppressed by the Kingdom Army.

All of this seemed to be within the expectations of the Kingdom Army commander.

Once the battle situation goes in the direction predicted by the Kingdom Army, the Kingdom Army's scouts and messengers will not return to the temporary command center to report the situation. This is of course to avoid exposing the coordinates of the temporary command center.

Vega took a deep breath.

Now all that matters is Foster. If Foster fails to put some pressure on the Kingdom Army, then by the time the situation is decided, it will be useless to find the Kingdom Army's headquarters, because even if Bruno is killed and the terrain is advantageous, there will be no extra troops to launch a counterattack against the Kingdom Army.

Every soldier is a hope for the imperial army to counterattack, but so far, the number of 8000 has been reduced to 5000, and the situation has become so serious that it is either victory or death.

----

Underground air-raid shelter, temporary command center.

After listening to the scout's battle report, Foster narrowed his eyes and said, "It's time to put some pressure on the Kingdom Army. Send out the elite mage guards and let those self-righteous Kingdom Army know what it means to be a lean camel that is bigger than a horse."

"Master Commander, what about your safety?"

Xia Nuo stepped forward nervously and said, "Once the elite mage guards are sent to the front line, if the enemy's shadow mages get here, I won't be able to use the teleportation array to prevent the high-intensity mental power injection with my ability alone."

Foster did not reply.

He stood up from the chair with his skinny body, then stretched out his trembling right hand to put the general's cap on his head, then took two steps to the right and took out a cross sword that symbolized force and glory.

"I am a general."

Foster said in a calm tone: "Commanding battles, killing the enemy, and leading by example, this is the job of a general. I have been away from my job for too long. Today is the time for me to do my job well."

Foster ignored everyone's obstruction and followed the elite mage guard team out of the teleportation circle and came to the front line.

Standing at the gate of the Professionals' Union.

Foster's open eyes were filled with blood and fire.

The tip of his nose moved slightly.

Foster knew it was the scent of blood, the smell of war.

too long.

It had been so long since he last smelled such a scent.

For a general who was sentenced to death by a doctor ten years ago, the biggest regret was that he could no longer enjoy the taste of blood and fire. But today, he was finally satisfied.

Even though the war situation is severe and even precarious.

He even pushed his troops to the edge of a cliff because of one of his mistakes.

But this is not important. Foster was not afraid of making mistakes. To be precise, he made countless mistakes in his life. But to this day, no one except himself remembers these mistakes. What people remember about him are only his victories in wars.

This time, it is no exception.

This war will surely become one of his masterpieces.

It's time to add the most significant chapter to my biography.

Foster's eyes, which reflected blood and fire, looked straight ahead: "Everyone, enjoy the war!"
