The encirclement on all sides had formed.
The path of survival for the fifth level Sages Civilization Legion was completely severed.
Considering the behavior displayed by this legion before, Link actually worried that the enemy would continue to fight desperately, ignoring the attacks from the other three Level Five Sage Armies and target the Grande Sage Army.
Unexpectedly, the next move of the fifth level Sages Civilization Legion turned out to be to hunker down and wait for reinforcements!
This left Link quite baffled.
If one were to say the enemy’s commander was brainless, then how had they managed to break through the front line defenses of the Ravensmouth College Army Group and infiltrate such a vital core region?
“What are you trying to do?”
Link muttered to himself, trying to reverse-engineer the enemy’s motives and objectives by putting himself in their place.
However, this line of thought did not delay Link’s decisiveness.
Citing excessive exhaustion, the Grande Sage Army requested permission from the Group Army Headquarters to withdraw from combat.
The headquarters was initially reluctant to agree.
However, Link insisted and explicitly stated that the Grande Sage Army had lost its combat power and could become the breakthrough point for the Sages Civilization’s Level Five Legion.
Left with no choice, the headquarters agreed to Link’s request for retreat.
“Let’s go!”
Without looking back even once, Link led the Grande Sage Army straight back to its base.
He left behind three Level Five Sage Armies to begin the encirclement and elimination of the Sages Civilization Level Five Legion.
On the way back and after arriving at the base, Link continued to keep a close eye on the battle situation.
It was unclear whether the Sages Civilization Level Five Legion was overperforming, or if the Ravensmouth College Army Group’s three Level Five Sage Armies were holding back, but 12 hours had passed, the total offensive was almost upon them, and the encirclement still hadn’t ended.
The Grande Sage Army had already completed resupplying and regrouping!
More and more, Link felt something was amiss, everywhere.
How had the Sages Civilization Level Five Legion infiltrated?
Were the front line defenses paper-thin, or full of leaks that couldn’t be any bigger?
If that Sages’ legion’s combat strength were truly so formidable, able to withstand the assault from three armies of the same level and hold out for so long, there was no reason they would have so easily let go of the Grande Sage Army.
Not to mention completely annihilating the Grande Sage Army in a mobile operation, at the very least taking a sizable chunk of flesh should have been possible, right?
So what happened?
The result was that the Grande Sage Army retreated safely back to its base without a scratch.
This was certainly because of Link’s command, the well-trained and highly efficient Grande Sage Army, but looking back, perhaps it was even more because the Sages’ legion had let them off the hook.
“Could this be a trap?”
This speculation arose in Link’s mind, but he immediately dismissed it.
The Group Army Staff Department had no lack of capable people. If Link could guess this way, they could not have failed to consider it.
“Merely” deploying three Level Five Legions and reluctantly agreeing to let the Grande Sage Army “slip away” first might have accounted for this aspect.
Then the question arose.
If this Sages Civilization Level Five Legion was indeed a bait, what did the commander of the Divine Civilization World battle want to lure?
And what kind of trump card or contingencies allowed that commander to have such confidence that once the “fish” bit the bait, across a whole line of defense of the Ravensmouth College Army Group, it could be effective?
A fish biting the hook didn’t equate to being caught.
It was also possible that after the fish had taken the bait, it could boldly escape.
And there was even a likely scenario to consider.
That was the Ravensmouth College Army Group using this bait to fish in turn.
“Anything is possible.”

Faced with a complex situation shrouded in fog, Link let out a sigh.
Then he cleared his mind of distractions and focused on commanding the Grande Sage Army to set off again.
The patrolling mission was over, and after a brief regrouping, the Grande Sage Army had to return to the ranks.
The Third Reserve Team, still a reserve team after all!
By the time the Grande Sage Army successfully rejoined and was incorporated into the command structure led by a level six sage, the outcome of that encirclement battle still had not been determined.
A full twenty-four hours had passed since Link discovered that Sages Civilization Level Five Legion near the “supply route”!
“The storm is about to come, the building is full of wind.”
Link suddenly thought of this verse, sensing the oppressive atmosphere before the decisive battle arrived.
This was the case for the Grande Sage Army, and indeed for all members of the Ravensmouth College Army Group, even the most seasoned of wizards.
Everyone’s attitude became extremely serious.
War is the most violent conflict.
Death is absolutely inevitable.
No wizard wishes to sacrifice their own life!
“I hate war!”
The muttered words of the Head Steward Lynn Hewitt suddenly reached Link’s ears.
From these words, Link could feel Lynn’s intense aversion to war.
He stopped Lynn with a look, asking him to withhold further complaints, but Link did not reprimand him.
As long as it wasn’t a public disturbance of military morale, the private grumblings of one or two were acceptable.
This was a form of psychological relief, after all.
However, the morale and spirit of the army before battle indeed warranted attention.
“Master, master!”
As Link was pondering over how to better boost the Grande Sage Army’s morale, Franda started to call out.
“What’s the matter?”
Link immediately responded to Franda’s call.
As the World Spirit of his Destiny World, the “Human Immortal Martial World,” Franda’s priority was second only to Jasmine and equally important as his daughter Melia.
It wasn’t that Link didn’t love his daughter.
But as a father, only by being strong himself could he provide better protection for his daughter.
“Master, master, I have now gained full control of your Destiny World!”
Franda placed her hands on her hips, boasting with an air of “I’m awesome.”
“???”
A series of question marks bubbled up in Link’s mind.
It was not long ago that Franda had not yet fully controlled the Human Immortal Martial World.
Link had been busy with missions these few days and had not paid attention to this development; he was unaware of what Franda had done.
Franda, not one to keep things to herself and in an attempt to “snatch” her master’s attention, immediately started complaining and then took the initiative to report her merit:
“Hmph! Master doesn’t care about Franda at all!
You don’t care about your Destiny World either!
Luckily, Franda is amazing, and thought to contact Master’s ‘Master,’ Li Shuwen, directly.
Wow, master, your Human Immortal Martial World has such high developmental potential.
The combat power that Human Immortal Martial Artist Li Shuwen from the God Seeing Realm can exert is incredibly formidable.
All those obstacles that prevented me from fully controlling the Destiny World have been swept away by your ‘Master’.”
While listening to Franda, Link also exercised his “World Master” privileges to look back at major events that had occurred over a period of time.
This is one of the incredible abilities of the “World Master,” the power to look back through time.
The feat of knowing the past, the present, and the future is not a fantasy, but something that can truly be achieved.
After a brief review to understand what had happened in the Human Immortal Martial World, Link did not let himself become too distracted, nor did he personally deal with the matters of the Human Immortal Martial World.
Instead, he instructed Franda to contact Li Shuwen in his name and consolidate the power of the Human Immortal Martial World.
When necessary, it might be of use.
Franda happily agreed and went off to manage the Human Immortal Martial World cheerfully.
She even forgot to tease Conelia, who had turned into a Three-legged Golden Crow.
Link withdrew his attention from the Destiny World and continued to monitor the course of the battle, while waiting for any orders that might come at any moment.
“Legion Commander, there is a situation.”
At that moment, the head of intelligence arrived with a portable intelligence processor in hand.
Since the Grande Sage Army joined the Third Reserve Team’s sequence of operations, Link had become busier with official duties.
Monitoring that fifth level Sages Civilization Legion was handed over to the intelligence department.
Link took the portable intelligence processor from the head of intelligence, opened the text battle report, and began to read multiple lines at a glance.
The more he read, the graver his expression became.
The Ravensmouth College Army Group was now dealing with the responding forces from the Divine Civilization World, regarding that fifth level Sages Civilization Legion they had each played their cards anew.
That fifth level Sages Civilization Legion was not just bait, it was also a coordinate locator!
A premeditated, mass teleportation had taken place.
The responding forces of the Divine Civilization World had “airdropped” an army equivalent to the Wizard World’s Level Seven Great Sage Army right into the core weakness of the Ravensmouth College Army Group’s battle line!
The rear of the Ravensmouth College Army Group… had been ambushed!
Danger!
