Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 1703 The Ambush

"I see. So you want us to fall into their trap on purpose while we set up our own trap to ambushthem instead.” Vivian's eyes lit up when she heard those words. She couldn't have thought of abetter plan.

"That's it. How smart of you!" Rocky nodded with a smile.

"But once we enter their territory, we might be ambushed and exposed. How can we catch them offguard instead?"

"That's also what I'm worried about. Isn't this too risky?"

"I think it's best that we avoid them and choose a safer route.”

The other Spiritual Emperors made it clear that they disagreed with Rocky's plan. After all, most, ifnot all, did not know much about the art of war. This meant that disagreement was inevitable."Everyone, I understand why you are worried. But like I said, the terrain we are in is easy to defendand hard to attack. The Primitive Fief's goal is to ambush us, so they won't be paying muchattention to the terrain. Once we allow them to ambush us, we can lead them to our own trap. Assoon as they're caught in it, we can begin a counterattack. Doing all this will allow us to deal a heavyblow to the enemy forces with minimum losses on our side,” Rocky analyzed with confidence.Vivian and the other Spiritual Emperors were shocked upon hearing his plan. Upon first impression,Rocky never showed much in terms of confidence, but ever since the last battle, they had found thathe had more to offer than what they thought.

"Of course, Miss Vivian, if you object, we can always think of another plan!" Rocky wouldn't simplyforce everyone to accept his plan.

"We'll just do what you said!" Vivian decided. She couldn't really say anything else at the momentbecause she wasn't exactly adept with military tactics. Now that Rocky came up with such a goodplan, there was no reason for her to object.

"Perfect. Please make the necessary arrangements. But when the time comes, I need you to allowme to make commands. Oh, and I also need your help with something,” Rocky said as he raisedboth eyebrows slyly.

"What?" Vivian looked at him in surprise.

Rocky immediately stepped up to her side and whispered a few words into her ear. Upon hearingwhat he said, Vivian stared at him with cold eyes and scolded, "We are not doing that!"

"If we don't do this, then our plan won't succeed!" Rocky said.

"But..." Vivian had never done such a thing similar to what he had just whispered to her before.Doing such things wasn't normal for her.

"When the time comes, I will help you. You just need to pretend while I take care of the rest.” Rockycontinued to persuade her.

"Alright." To ensure that the plan went smoothly, Vivian reluctantly agreed.

After that, Rocky left first.

"Miss Vivian, what does he want you to do?" the Spiritual Emperors asked her, genuine looks ofcuriosity all over their faces.

"Play dead!" Vivian blurted out without any hesitation or explanation. This confused them evenfurther. "Well...

Miss Vivian, we all thought that Godly Genius Odin was only skilled in medicine. We didn't expecthim to be so good at military tactics...”

"It seems it's not a coincidence that he was chosen to be the Godly Genius!"

"It's a pity that he's still weak and lacking in strength. Otherwise, he would be very powerful!"

They began to discuss among themselves.

Vivian didn't say anything and immediately asked them to make the necessary preparations inaccordance with their plan.

A night passed.

Early morning on the second day, the joint guard team set off according to Rocky's plan and headedto the area where Tobias had set up the ambush.

Meanwhile, Tobias received a message from the front. Inside the tent, one of the Spiritual Kingsreported to Tobias as soon as he discovered something. "Sir, as expected, our enemy is headingtowards us," he said.

"Ha hal Just as I expected. In order to get to the Nether Dragon King's lair quickly, they need to takethis shortcut. This time, we defeat them once and for all," Tobias said before he burst into loudlaughter. He had already set up a trap, waiting for the joint guard team to fall into it.

Half a day later, the joint guard team was ambushed by Tobias and his men.

When Vivian and her team entered the area less than a hundred meters further, the uneven roadsuddenly twisted like debris being scattered in the wind, forming a whirlpool which instantlytrapped most of the members. At the same time, flames gushed out of the cracks.

Once the flames touched their bodies, they would be seriously injured or worse, dead. It wasobvious that the joint guard team was in a huge predicament.

However, Rocky came prepared as he immediately unleashed the Army-blessing Scroll. With hischant, the members of the joint guard team found a surge of strength in their feet and in an instant,used it to break free from the mudflow that held them down.

Soon, under the influence of the Army-blessing Scroll, most of the members retreated to safety.However, since Vivian and a few other members of the team had gone too deep, they failed toescape on time. This gave Tobias the perfect opportunity to trap them.

The purpose of this trap was to try and cut off any connection between the joint guard team. Tobiaswanted to separate Vivian, who was leading the team on the front lines, from Rocky and theSpiritual Emperors, who were at the back.

Obviously, his plan succeeded.

When Vivian and several of her men were alone, Tobias, who was more than prepared, immediatelyappeared before her with two low-grade Spiritual Emperors.

"You annoying little pest!” Trapped in the mud whirlpool, Vivian glared at him

"Ha ha! I've heard a lot about you, miss, like rumors of how much of a beauty you are. Now that Isee you, and I can say that they're all true. You really are beautiful...” With a lascivious look on hisface, he gazed at her with eyes full of greed. Compared to Valeria, this arrogant and aloof womanwas far more attractive to him

"Cut the crap. Come and fight me if you want to kill me!" With a wave of her hand, an ice whitespear appeared out of thin air and into Vivian's grasp. If she wasn't on the battlefield, she wouldrarely summon her spiritual weapon to fight against an enemy. But now that she did, it was clearthat the situation was serious.

"I don't even need to kill you with my own hands!" With a cold smile, Tobias took out a palm sizedjade and threw it directly into the mud whirlpool.

As soon as the gem flew into the sky and directly above the whirlpool, it suddenly shone with astrange dark green light. In an instant, a strong siphoning force swept over Vivian and her teamThis, along with being trapped in the mud whirlpool, made them feel every second of having theirspiritual power being taken.

"The Spiritual Power Absorbing Stone! How could he have such a thing!" Vivian's eyes turned cold.This stone was a holy artifact of the royal family. It was refined via a secret method known only tomembers within the family. It could absorb the spiritual power of any living being. The higher thegrade, the stronger its siphoning power was. The one that Tobias possessed was at a level that couldabsorb at least the spiritual power of someone who was at the Emperor Level. So even someone asstrong as her could barely resist its power.
