Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master -
Chapter 1642 Beverly's Diversion
"It's a deal. We don't have to enter this place. After all, we have nothing to do here anyway. We justcame here to stop the army of the spiritual race. But since we've already got what we want, we canleave right away. Our apologies for interrupting you, sir. Please let us go in peace,” Rocky saidrespectfully. It was clear to him that it wasn't the right time to offend and pick a fight with thisEmperor Realm spiritual beast.
Upon hearing this, the spiritual beast looked in the distance and said in a serious tone, “I hope youare telling the truth. The sacred forbidden area cannot be defiled at all costs. So, if you will not keepyour promise, I'll be sure to kill you no matter what."
Although Rocky suspected that the relic being hidden there might have something to do with theStar Divine Race, he could not take any risk. No matter how eager he was to explore the place, hecould not put the lives of his comrades in danger. Moreover, the important thing right now was tostop the plan of the spiritual race's army. Since it seemed that they had fulfilled their goal, he couldstill wait for another chance.
"Everyone, listen to me! Keep the formation as we retreat from the forest. Do not let your guarddown," Rocky ordered at once. Although the spiritual beast gave its word to let the human army go,Rocky still strictly commanded everyone to be vigilant.
Then, Rocky's troops gradually left the lair of the spiritual beast and got out of the attacking rangeof the other spiritual beasts.
At the same time, Eunice rushed to Rocky's side and whispered, "Why are we leaving? This spiritualbeast doesn't seem to be that powerful. We've got so many soldiers here. Why don't we take itdown ourselves just in case the spiritual race succeeds?”
In front of the Emperor Realm spiritual beast, Rocky didn't dare to relax even for a moment. Thus, heglanced at Eunice and said, "It's not that simple. You can't underestimate that spiritual beast. If wedon't have enough confidence to quickly bring down all the spiritual beasts that are guarding it, itwill be impossible for us to succeed. Moreover, even I don't have the confidence to defeat it on myown. Once it fights back seriously, I can tell that its power will be enough to annihilate all of us. Butat the same time, the spiritual beast is very smart. It knows that if it engages us, the spiritual race'sarmy will take that chance to take action. That is why it chose to let us leave peacefully.”
"Are you saying that it wanted us to leave so that it can focus and contain the spiritual race's army?"Eunice asked with narrowed eyes.
Rocky nodded and replied, "Yes. The beast's mission is to guard the deepest part of the primevalforest. If what it said about the sacred weapon is true, then my gut says that the spiritual race's armyisn't really after the spiritual beast. They're here for the sacred weapon.”
As the spiritual beast saw that Rocky already led his army to retreat from the forest, it looked up atthe sky and heaved a sigh. "It seems that my mission here is about to come to an end. But in themeantime, I shall do my best to delay it further and keep the sacred weapon safe. However, just incase, maybe I can entrust it to that human commander. He has a certain aura that feels veryfamiliar...”
On the other hand, Rocky didn't know what was running on the mind of the spiritual beast. Becauseof his strange familiarity to it, it chose to let them go after testing his intention. Otherwise, with thestrength of the spiritual beast, it could simply slaughter them all on the spot.
At the same time, because Rocky had to activate the Army-blessing Scroll and the mysteriousmilitary arrays when they launched a surprise attack on the spiritual race's army, the soldiers of thehuman army needed to take a rest. Therefore, right after they got out of the forest, Rocky orderedhis troops to take a break but remain alert, as much as possible. He arranged patrols and defenses,and he also sent some spies to monitor the movements of the spiritual race's army.
Meanwhile, the spiritual race's army, which took a fatal blow when Rocky's army suddenly surprisedthem, had retreated to the periphery of the forest to recuperate. They didn't expect that they wouldsustain heavy casualties while they were on an important mission
"Commander Beverly, what happened back there? Why did the human army suddenly appear? It isso suspicious. Did someone leak our plans to them?" The two Emperor Realm masters, who camewith the army, pulled a long face.
"I don't know either, but what you're saying is impossible. The human army has no way of knowingour plan because it was secretly ordered by Commander in Chief Alyssa. So, except for the three ofus, no one else knows about this,” Beverly replied as she shook her head.
"Anyway, now that the human army knows what we are doing here, I'm afraid that the mission willbecome harder. It won't be easy to subdue the spiritual beast guarding the forest, let alone get tothe exact location of the sacred weapon,” the master in blue said with furrowed brows.
"I agree. The one who leads the human army will especially be troublesome. He is the one whomade me suffer great losses before. With his ability to control beasts, I'm sure that he will use itagain to his advantage!" Beverly said through gritted teeth as she remembered how Rocky defeatedher previously.
"If that is the case, I think it will be wiser if we get rid of the human army first. Why don't we hatch aplan to kill their commander? Once he's gone, it will be easy to eliminate the whole army,” themaster in blue haughtily suggested.
"I don't feel the need to be hasty. Besides, Commander in Chief Alyssa specifically told us that thisplan will have a great impact on our next battle with the humans. Hence, obtaining the sacredweapon is more urgent. We cannot engage with the human army again if we are not a hundredpercent sure that we can defeat them,” Beverly answered sternly.
"Do you have a better plan then, commander?" the master in white asked expectantly.
"Yes. I am planning to make a deal with the human commander,” Beverly replied with a straight face."You will make a deal? And what will be its content?” The two masters asked out of curiosity.
"As of now, I don't think the human army knows the existence of the sacred weapon. Hence, if wecan create an elaborate lie, we can make them cooperate with us. We'll say that our goal is to get aninternal beast core from the spiritual beast's body, and if they help us take down the beast, we willshare it with them. But of course, in the end, we will turn against them after we defeated thespiritual beast. Isn't that much better?" Beverly asked as she explained her plan.
"I'm afraid that is very ideal. It may only work if the human commander is such a fool.” The master inblue responded with hints of doubt in his voice.
"The internal beast core is very special to spirit warriors that can help them control beasts. Once hepossesses it, he will be able to control all kinds of beasts. Maybe for you, the offer is not thattempting. But once he hears it, I know he will consider it," Beverly said with a confident smile.
"Well, I hope so. All right, let's do your plan first!" Although the masters were a bit reluctant, theystill decided to follow Beverly's plan. After all, she was the sister of the deputy commander in chief.They didn't want to blatantly disagree with her out of courtesy for her older brother.
Hence, after they reached an agreement, Beverly quickly walked out of her tent and left the camp ofthe spiritual race's army.
At the dead of the night, the primeval forest seemed to be very quiet. All the living creatures hadalready fallen asleep.
At the same time, Rocky, was still up, planning the next steps to deal with the spiritual race's army.Suddenly, he saw a shadow standing outside his tent. However, the figure disappeared in an instantbefore he had the opportunity to know who it was.
Rocky found it rather strange and had a bad feeling about it. His eyes narrowed, and he decided togo out.
Not long after, he found the figure again. This time, he chased it out of the military camp until hearrived at an open ground about a mile away from the camp.
Noticing that Rocky had already followed her, the figure finally stopped and faced him directly.
The moment the figure turned around, Rocky found out that it was actually a woman with delicatefeatures. Moreover, he instantly noticed that she was very familiar. Apparently, she was the beasttamer of the spiritual race's army that he encountered a couple of times before—Beverly.
"Oh, it is you again. I believe I don't know your name yet," Rocky said indifferently.
"I believe so too. My name is Beverly," she replied
"I see. It is a pretty name,” Rocky said with a faint smile as if he was not threatened at all.
