Mage Veigar

Chapter 687 Restraint Method
East coast.

The military base of the Empire and the Holy Dragon Kingdom.

Foster and Augustus got together again to discuss the next battle plan.

When facing the powerful enemy Vega, the two tacitly put aside their own selfishness and began to unite against the common enemy.

"Your Excellency, are you still not going to retreat?"

Augustus said meaningfully: "The Jialan Empire is in full swing, with Vega in charge and God-level mages and Star-level mages fighting against millions. It is now the strongest military power in the continent. If it were not for the constraints of its comprehensive national strength, it would have swallowed up the world. Now Vega is pointing his sword at the east coast. It will be too late if we don't leave now."

"Having said that..."

Foster sighed and said, "But are you really willing to retreat like this, Commander?"

"What if I am willing? What if I am not willing?"

Augustus looked straight at Foster, and Foster's squinted eyes did not reveal any psychological fluctuations.

“I believe there is no such thing as a free lunch.”

Foster glanced at the map and said, "My country is in a state of civil unrest, and we took great risks to send troops to the East Coast. Your country revealed its trump card and killed the Star Mage Okasos. Only then did we finally take over the East Coast and confine that kid to the barren land on the West Coast. Now he wants us to hand over the East Coast with just one sentence. I cannot agree to this."

"Your country is going to fight to the death here?"

Augustus said: "Don't lose the big picture for the small. Only by losing can you gain. You are not Vega. If you fight against a rock with an egg, you will not win a great victory, but a complete annihilation of the army."

"What if I say there is a way to restrict divine mages?"

Foster's words startled Augustus so much that he dropped the cup in his hand.

He put on an expression of disbelief and said, "How, how is it possible! If you have the means to fight against the Divine Mage, how could you have kept it hidden until now? I'm afraid you would have used it long ago!"

This is absolutely impossible.

In this day and age, there is no means to confront the Star Wizards head-on, let alone the Divine Wizards, who were regarded as the ultimate force even in the most glorious period of magic civilization.

"Please don't misunderstand me. The Empire does not have your country's trump card."

Foster showed an absolutely confident look: "But before that, I would like to ask you, Commander, in your opinion, what is the most powerful force of the human race? Or in other words, what is the basis for humans to exclude all other races and become the protagonist of the continent?"

"Of course it's your high-level wizard!"

Augustus said with certainty: "According to the records of the tribe, human star mages have the strength to fight against low-level dragon species head-on, and divine mages are strong enough to fight against high-level dragons such as black dragons and silver dragons head-on. Several divine mages unite to form a formation and can even hunt down the strongest holy dragons."

"you are wrong."

Foster said categorically: "The reason why humans can rise is not due to high-level magicians. In terms of the number of high-level forces, we cannot compare with your masters, the dragon species. In terms of the strength of magicians, we cannot compare with the extinct elves, and we cannot even compare with some of the unique races in the Western Free Alliance."

Augustus' curiosity was piqued.

He asked puzzledly: "Then what is the existence that is more powerful than the Divine Mage?"

“It’s wisdom!”

Foster hit the nail on the head: "I'm not bragging. Humans are indeed smarter than other races. It is because of the wisdom of their ancestors that humans have successfully learned the professions and magic system from the elves, and brought this system to a new level. It is because of wisdom that humans have repeatedly defeated the strong with the weak, and finally became the protagonist of the continent."

"In summary," Foster gave Augustus a very shocking answer: "As long as we operate properly, we can completely prevent the Divine Mage from playing his role."

"How do I do this?"

Disdain gradually appeared on Augustus' face. He instinctively did not believe what Foster said. If the divine wizards were so easy to control, how could the Western countries have been defeated so miserably.

"The answer is simple, avoid the truth and talk nonsense!"

Foster held up the recording crystal and said, "This is a partial recording of that war. Although there is no trace of the Divine Mage in it, after more than ten days of research, it is found that this Divine Magic is an auxiliary war magic. It can give allies within the domain many benefits, such as resurrection, invincibility, never fatigue, unlimited firepower... With these benefits, this army can be said to be an invincible army of God, but this is also its weakness."

Augustus fell into deep thought.

"The legion commander may have guessed something."

Fawcett said confidently, "In this day and age, how could anyone find two pages of Divine Position Runes? This Divine Position Mage probably only knows one Divine Position Magic. Even if this speculation is wrong, such a terrifying Divine Position Magic cannot be released twice in a row. Therefore, I think as long as we trick the enemy into using this magic, or if we temporarily retreat when the enemy releases the magic, and then fight back after the magic loses its effect, we will surely win."

“This strategy…”

Augustus stood up and walked around the room.

He walked for about five minutes before he suddenly stopped, looked at Foster and said, "This strategy might actually work."

Avoid the real and attack the fake.

The best strategy is to use bait to trick out the enemy's divine magic, avoid the enemy's strong period, and then launch a real attack on the enemy when the enemy enters a weak period.

"and many more!"

Augustus seemed to understand something: "This strategy...why does it sound so familiar to me?"

"Hahaha--"

Foster laughed and said, "Your Excellency, have you not reacted yet? This has always been the strategy that brat has used to deal with your Holy Dragon Army. After all, the magic defense of every soldier in your army is strong enough. It is completely a weakened version of the current Jialan Army."

"Give someone a taste of their own medicine..."

Augustus said with some concern: "Is this really okay?"

"Please rest assured that as the defender, we have a unique advantage in advancing and retreating."

Foster explained, "Plus, we have a strong military force. I think it's not a disadvantage to send out 100,000 soldiers to test the enemy's true situation. Besides, if we don't suffer, we will never grow. I hope he can still defeat us this time and reveal more things."

"You have to give and you have to gain. Your Excellency, keep a good attitude."

"Mr. Commander, you are too kind."

Foster shook his head and said, "In the final analysis, I am just unwilling to give up the East Coast so easily, and I have always suspected one thing -"

The squinted eyes opened slightly.

Foster's eyes showed a dangerous look: "Does the Divine Mage really exist?"
