Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 382 Dilemma

As a deafening roar reverberated in the air, a colossal dragon flew out of the crevice. Its giant bodyglistened with dazzling thunder light, and its three huge heads were swinging. The four giganticwings behind its heads even impeded the sunlight. Its body was as large as a mountain. Bolts ofthunder kept spurting out of its two tails. The formidable aura around it rattled the spectators to thecore.

Those soldiers in the Loyal Dragon Pass almost bounced out of their skin as facing the colossaldragon's appearance. The poor-spirited ones among them could not even help but begin shakinglike a leaf.

The spot where the Timber Deity Empire's army encamped was near to the Loyal Dragon Pass, sothey also caught a glimpse of the colossal dragon. Their jaws almost fell to the ground as seeing therude awakening picture.

That giant creature was Lance's spirit-manipulated beast, a six-star Thunder Blustering Dragon. Itranked top ten on the Spiritual Beast List of the Wild Spirit Land, no matter in strength or quality.The Thunder Blustering Dragon was strong as an eagle and out of the ordinary kind of spiritualdragon among the thunder series. What could be on a par with Lance's Thunder Blustering Dragonin the Holy Dragon Empire were only the two spirit-manipulated beasts of Bryant's and Marcia's.Lance self-possessed as the breast of a lake when the loud wind was laid jumped into the air. With agleam of his spiritual power, he had ridden on the Thunder Blustering Dragon. As it was waving itswings, a sand storm swept over the Loyal Dragon Pass.

In a flickering of an eye, the Thunder Blustering Dragon had brimmed over up into the sky andebbed away.

It was already night when Lance came back to the Frozen River Pass.

"Father!" As promptly as perceiving Lance made an appearance, Isis came to catch sight of him."How about the Wild Heaven Pass right now?" Lance inquired.

"We have lost ten thousand of our men. By good luck, Commander Ron already kept at arm's lengththe enemy ambush and expelled them out of the Wild Heaven Pass!" Isis answered with a somberlook.

"It's still too shortly to make conclusions!" Lance declared.

"Father, do you mean we should allocate some reinforcements to the Wild Heaven Pass?” Isis’ browsknitted together.

"No, we can't do that. Ten thousand soldiers of the Crimson Dragon Group have been assigned tothe Loyal Dragon Pass from the Frozen River Pass. There are only twenty thousand soldiers in theFrozen River Pass right now. If we sent reinforcements to the Wild Heaven Pass, the Frozen RiverPass would be on jeopardy then." Lance face looked sullen and then proceeded, "It's our rival'sswindle. Now that the Timber Deity Empire has a substantial upper hand over us in the aspect ofarmy forces, they bring into service that to draw away our army forces. It is a conundrum that thethirty thousand soldiers of Timber Deity Empire besieged the Loyal Dragon Pass. What theyundoubtedly have an inclination for is the Wild Heaven Pass. Princess Alyssa is absolutely out of theordinary!”

"What should we do now, father? We will lose the Wild Heaven Pass if we don't assign anyreinforcements to them!" Isis could not help but be in a state of nerves like a cat on a hot tin roof.Once upon losing the Wild Heaven Pass, an entrance to the Holy Dragon Empire would be freed bytheir rival.

"I have dispatched a message to the headquarters along the way. The Elite Regiment of our spiritmanipulators will send over some of their members within no time,” Lance declared.

"The Elite Regiment! Do you genuinely mean it, father?" Isis was hit like a ton of bricks.

Almost everyone in the Crimson Dragon Group was apprehensive that the Elite Regiment was theirmost incomprehensible squad, which consisted of royal spirit manipulators at or above the eighthgrade of the Earthly Stage. The head of the Elite Regiment even reached the Supernal Stage.

There were at most hundreds of Supernal Stage spirit manipulators in the whole Holy DragonEmpire. Most of them came from the dominant clans of the royal family. In the four major militarygroups of the Holy Dragon Empire, there were also an insignificant number of Supernal Stage spiritmanipulators. The Crimson Dragon Group, for example, had three to four Supernal Stage spiritmanipulators, and they would come to lock antlers only under the most dangerous circumstance.The Elite Regiment led by a Supernal Stage spirit manipulator, of course, was extraordinarily strongas an ox and back-breaking.

Now that Lance even required the best squad of the Crimson Dragon Group to join the fight, itcould also show beyond doubt how precarious their present condition was. Only by such a strongsquad's helping hand could the Crimson Dragon Group have the possibility to turn the tables."Besides, the fifty thousand soldiers, which are the reinforcements I already put into position before,are on the way now. We have to try everything we can to safeguard the three passes. When the EliteRegiment and reinforcements arrive, it is time we fight back! The crux right now is whether we cantake up cudgels for the Wild Heaven Pass. The Elite Regiment's members normally have their owntask to put the finishing touches to. It will take them at least five days to come here. Our men in theWild Heaven Pass have to hold their horses for a few more days," Lance said with a serious face.Time was the key to this battle, yet what the Crimson Dragon Army was desperate most for now wasalso time.

If they lost the Wild Heaven Pass, the aftermath was beyond hope. It would go far more above one'shead to fight the Timber Deity Empire if they entered the Holy Dragon Empire's territory throughthe Wild Heaven Pass. They would in two shakes of a lamb's tail invade the several cities, includingEvian City, around the border, and numerous guilt-free citizens would die in the cruel war.

Thus, the Crimson Dragon Army would with no lack of confidence to have a dust-up for their life forthe Wild Heaven Pass.

The next day, Lance was presented with the news that the Timber Deity Empire launched intenseattacks at the Loyal Dragon Pass, which was entirely out of his control. He didn't have in theprospect that the enemy would fight the Loyal Dragon Pass before they got the Wild Heaven Pass.To add salt into an injury, it was Princess Alyssa who led the Timber Deity Empire's army to bombardthe Loyal Dragon Pass.

Although previously their morale almost reached the low watermark level after Lance routed them,the Timber Deity Empire's army in the Loyal Dragon Pass regained their confidence under Alyssa'sskillful leadership. With their strong as a lion fighting will, they had almost broken down the twentythousand soldiers patrolling in the Loyal Dragon Pass.

The third day, the Wild Heaven Pass and the Loyal Dragon Pass were both on the edge of beingblown their minds. The Crimson Dragon Army had been pushed in a corner.

In the temporary Conference Hall of the Frozen River Pass, Lance wore a solemn expression andfurrowed brows deeply. His eyes were painted with a hint of the heebie-jeebies. He becamecognizant of what a predicament the Crimson Dragon Army was in right now. Both the Wild HeavenPass and the Loyal Dragon Pass were in deeply demand of reinforcements, but if Lance assignedsoldiers of the Frozen River Pass to the two passes, the Frozen River Pass would be on jeopardy inany minute.

But if he didn't do so, the Holy Dragon Empire would lose two crucial passes at the same time. TheTimber Deity Empire could easily invade several cities around the Holy Dragon Empire's boundarylike a piece of old tackle.

These days, the Crimson Dragon Army had already been dissipated after engaging in several fights.It was a hard nut to crack for them to guard a mere pass. How could they maintain both the WildHeaven Pass and the Loyal Dragon Pass?

"Father!" Isis wended her way in without signaling.

"Is there any piece of information about the Wild Heaven Pass and the Loyal Dragon Pass?" Lance'sbrows knitted together. While he had to blow the lid off that Princess Alyssa was so good that sheeven pushed him and the Crimson Dragon Army in a corner.

Although Lance had encountered a lot and dominated for many time, he was already at the end ofhis wits as facing the current monkey wrench in the works. Perturbation had almost worn him out,which was so evident in the increase of his grey hair. Before the reinforcements arrived, the twoprincipal passes were already on the edge of losing. Yet, he didn't have the slightest idea about howto handle with that because of the inadequate army forces. All of these were overpowering him andalmost smothered him.

"Nothing new! I'm scared stiff that we would lose the Wild Heaven Pass." Isis shook her head slightlyas a hint of twitchiness flashed in her eyes. Meanwhile, a man's figure clicked into her mind. Shebelieved that if he was here now, he might have a way to alleviate their up to the minute crisis.Although she fully understood that getting out of such a quandary was almost close to drawingwater from a stone, she still believed that he could come to someone's rescue. Because she alreadywitnessed that he turned the impossibility into possibility last time in the Rough Slope.
