Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 327 Speaking Like A Dictionary

"Oh, I need to go to the logistics camp to check in at work and announce my arrival today!" Rockysaid, remembering he had promised Isis to be the captain of the transportation squad and militaryvet. Although, truth be told, he didn't really want to be the captain of the transportation squad. He'daccepted the position as a means to remain in the northeastern military camp. The trade-off wouldpay dividends later.

After the northeast military camp moved to the frontier, the original area was remodeled into thelogistics camp. A multitude of army provisions and weapons were moved from base camp to thelogistics camp.

Today was his first day on the job as captain of the transportation squad.

He arranged for his beasts to stay at their positions, guarding his home, and left for the logisticscamp.

When Rocky entered the logistics camp, there was an abundance of activity. Soldiers and spiritmanipulators came and went, preoccupied with their business. Rocky knew none of them.

But he was not surprised by the number of people or the commotion. Since Isis re-established thelogistics camp to shorten supply time during the war with Timber Deity Empire, this was to beexpected. The move meant the frontiers could receive army provisions and materials rather quickly.Such things could be the difference between defeat and victory. The variety of uniforms and crestssaid the soldiers and spirit manipulators in the logistics camp were transferred from other militarycamps.

Although they were all new faces to Rocky, they still knew about him. The moment he entered thecamp, he heard the whispers, and saw the glances his way, the gestures, and pointed fingers. Hisname preceded him from his performance in the last contest. And he'd also refused theCommander in Chief in public. That in itself drew attention with some regarding him as if trying tofigure out exactly what he was about, what kind of a man he might be.

Throw in the news that Rocky had chosen to be a captain of the transportation squad instead ofFrontline Commander and the confusion and assessment was more pronounced. Compared withFrontline Commander, the captain of the transportation squad was a grueling and trifling job. Noone in their right mind would choose as Rocky had.

But those choices and achievements had turned Rocky into a celebrity in the Crimson DragonGroup. Everyone was talking about him all the time.

"Rocky..." two excited voices called at the same time.

Rocky turned around to see Thor and Joss. The two of them were happy to see Rocky as if they hadfound some treasures.

"Why are you two here?" Rocky frowned at them.

"We heard you were the new captain of the transportation squad, so we applied to be with you.Commander Marin transferred us here. We heard about your great performance in the contest. Andhow you were so cool that you turned down the Frontline Commander post.” Thor gave a Rocky anod of approval, admiration twinkling in his eye.

"Really?" Rocky gave them a skeptical glance. He had a feeling something wasn't quite right. "Whereis your Camp Director?”

"He is at Commander Marin's tent,” Joss responded

Rocky nodded and headed toward Commander Marin's tent.

After Rocky left, Thor whispered to Joss, "Hey, do you think Rocky suspects anything?" Joss shookhis head. "I doubt it. Commander Marin certainly wouldn't tell anyone that she has us spying on himfor her. Or that she was the one who transferred us here without us asking.”

Thor nodded. "I agree. But remember we have to be extra careful. If he replaces out, he'll kill us. Andthere'd be nothing we could do to stop him or even slow him down. He's reached the eighth gradeof the Earthly Stage. Killing us is like stepping on an ant."

They looked at each other before casting a terrified look in Rocky's direction.

There was no guard when Rocky reached the Commander's camp, so he entered. Several peoplewere gathered inside the tent having a discussion.

A man, with a too smooth face and innocent eyes that spoke of inexperience, sat in theCommander's old spot. The man was young. Rocky doubted if he was even thirty.

Everyone in the camp turned to look at Rocky as he entered.

"You must be Rocky.” The young man stood and dipped his head slightly.

Rocky nodded without a word.

"Nice to meet you. I'm Louis, the new Camp Director of the logistics camp,” the man said with asmile.

"Nice to meet you, Camp Director.” Rocky matched the man’s smile with one of his own.

"This is the Deputy Camp Director, these are captains, and these are..." Louis pointed at each personand introduced Rocky.

"I see," Rocky said in return. "I came to check in for work. Unless you don't have anything for me,then I can go.” Rocky made to turn to leave.

"Hey, that's disrespectful. The Camp Director hasn't said you can go," the Deputy Camp Directoryelled. "I heard you were arrogant, but this is worse than I expected.”

The others nodded in agreement. Rocky knew what they had to be thinking. They had heard abouthim, about his exploits, his achievements. They knew he had refused the Commander in Chief. Mostlikely they figured he was a man of great ambition.

"The Camp Director hasn't said I couldn't go either. So, why are you so angry?" Rocky glared at theDeputy Camp Director.

"You're just a captain. How dare you speak to a Deputy Camp Director like that?” The man scowledat Rocky. His face flushed with anger.

"Stop it this moment, for my sake," a cool voice said.

Rocky and the Deputy Camp Director turned their heads and found it was Louis.

Rocky realized Louis wasn't an ordinary man. A camp director would not be tolerant in a situationlike this. He would have reprimanded Rocky. But Louis didn't show any superiority. Rocky could tellfrom his eyes that Louis's reaction was not because he was afraid or bothered by Rocky's attitude.'This new Camp Director isn't someone to take lightly, ' Rocky thought.

"Captain Rocky, we are checking the transportation route from our camp to the frontier. Would youlike to join us and see?" Louis pointed to a map on the table.

Rocky stepped forward to look at the map. Then he frowned, shaking his head, and said, "Thisroadmap isn't feasible. I'll get a better one done.”

"Captain Rocky, did you know that our Camp Director worked around the clock to complete thismap after several sleepless nights?" A captain fixed Rocky with a cold stare. "How dare you say "I'llget a better one done’! Who do you think you are?” Another captain said, "I think the roadmap isperfect. It's clear and every line is the shortest route.” He eyed Rocky then offered the CampDirector a flattering smile.

Others echoed his opinion.

"Why do you think this map isn't good enough?" Louis regarded Rocky with a frown but his wordswere even.

"Here... And here... These places have lots of wild spirit-manipulated beasts... There are frequentlandslides and falling rocks on this road. And..." Rocky traced his finger along the map andcontinued with his assessment.

Rocky smiled at the sight of Louis and the others in shock. They knew he wasn't making up any of it.And the way he recited everything was as if he were a dictionary.
