Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 635 Who Is He

As Rocky was leading the Crimson Dragon Army towards the border of the Timber Deity Empire, themention of his name once again caused a stir in the Palace City. Even the royal family of the HolyDragon Empire caught wind of it. Of course, this was all because of his marriage to Isis, as well as hisappointment as Commander in Chief in the Crimson Dragon Army.

Additionally, Rocky had just saved Evian City from the Timber Deity Empire, miraculously defeatingtheir thirty thousand strong troops. This, in addition to his sudden marriage and promotion, wasabsolutely unheard of. In a short period of time, some nobody named had become the talk of thePalace City.

In fact, Rocky was possibly the most famous man in the Holy Dragon Empire right now! The merefact that he married Isis was enough to stun the royal family.

Ever since she was young, Isis had been known to be the prodigy of the Holy Dragon Empire, thanksto her outstanding talent. In addition to her extraordinary skill as a spirit manipulator, she hadgrown to become a fine young woman who had mastery of military strategy and tactics. Isis was soimpressive that she was deemed the most outstanding woman in the empire. She had been offeredmultiple arranged marriages by the emperor, but Lance had declined these. Knowing that Lance hadonly one daughter, the emperor never forced these marriages.

Isis was also admired by the children of the royal family and the children of the famous clans in theHoly Dragon Empire. Even so, no one in particular seemed to impress her.

But now, Isis suddenly married some nobody! Understandably, this made many people feelinconsolably jealous. Everyone wanted to know just who this “Rocky” was. How did he manage towin over Isis’ heart in such a short amount of time?

However, what really surprised the emperor was not the marriage of Rocky and Isis, but the fact thatLance appointed Rocky as Commander in Chief of the Crimson Dragon Army. Usually, it wasn't sobig a deal if someone was appointed as Commander in Chief, but since Rocky was some unknowncharacter, the sequence of events were utterly unbelievable.

Additionally, the Crimson Dragon Army was already preparing for their decisive battle with theTimber Deity Empire. This meant Lance should've personally led the battle, but he handed over suchan important task to Rocky. This completely baffled the emperor.

Although a field commander had the right to make decisions that went against even the emperor'sorders as war was afoot, he was a bit concerned that Lance's decisions were too rash.

Not only was the emperor of the Holy Dragon Empire dubious, but many military officers and eventhe royal family were doubtful about Lance's decision. On the other hand, some people were justthriving off of this hot gossip. First, this Rocky person saved Evian City; then, he married Isis and waspromoted! If the Crimson Dragon Army was defeated this time, Lance and his Crimson DragonGroup would be in big trouble.

Meanwhile, a discussion was going on in Alston's bedroom in the Palace City.

"Who on earth is Rocky, Priest Dean? How did he manage to marry Lance's daughter and beappointed as Commander in Chief by him?" Alston scratched his chin as he pondered aloud, PriestDean sitting beside him. He had a bad feeling about this.

"I don't know, but I'm sure that Rocky is definitely not from a noble clan or the royal family. Butwhat's strange is that Lance could not have married his daughter to a nobody. Furthermore, withher talents and accolades, there's no way Isis would fall for some ordinary man. So, what makesRocky so special?” Priest Dean also felt that everything that was happening was inconceivable."Send someone to the Gehenna Border right away to replace out Rocky's background," Alston orderedafter a moment's hesitation.

"What are you worried about, Your Royal Highness?" Priest Dean asked pointedly, as though he hadread Alston's mind.

"You'd better investigate it first,” Alston motioned with a wave of his hand, indicating Priest Deanshould ask no more questions.

"Yes, Your Royal Highness. However, might I mention—you didn't seem to get any closer to HerRoyal Highness. That can't be good!" Priest Dean continued carefully.

"Don’t mention it. I went to see her almost every day, but she shut the door to be rid of me. Itseems she's deliberately avoiding me." Alston heaved an anxious sigh.

"Is she aware of what happened back then?" Priest Dean asked with concern, worry lines forming onhis forehead.

"I don't think so.” Alston shook his head.

"I hope that is the case. I shall go now." And with that, Priest Dean took his leave.

Three days later, the fifty thousand soldiers of Crimson Dragon Army reached the border of theTimber Deity Empire.

As darkness crept over the land, it was decided that the army set up camp on the spot.

At this moment, many people gathered in the tent of the Commander in Chief. Two heads of theElite Regiment, four Elite Commanders, and several Frontline Commanders, such as Marin, werepresent.

"According to our investigation, there are about forty thousand soldiers guarding the border of theTimber Deity Empire. In the battle of Evian City, the Timber Deity Empire had lost nearly thirtythousand soldiers. Additionally, counting their loss at the battle in the Deity Unicorn Valley, we haveestimated that their leftover military force is comprised of around forty thousand soldiers. Sincethere are also wars taking place on other border of the Timber Deity Empire, it is impossible forthem to mobilize a large number of military forces here in so short a time. I don't think Alyssa willbe able to obtain reinforcements anytime soon." Allen cleared his throat as he reported theinformation collected by the Elite Regiment.

Although there weren't many members in this Elite Regiment, the division of labor was clear. Somemembers were dedicated to sneaking into the Timber Deity Empire to spy on them, gaining militaryinformation. Each member was notably strong, at least at the eighth grade of the Earthly Stage.Thus, it was more efficient for them to collect the accurate and confidential information as opposedto ordinary spies.

"Do you know the specific military distribution?" Rocky asked, squinting hard.

"According to the information we have just received, the forty thousand troops are mainlydistributed in these three areas.” Allen pointed at the map of the terrain as he spoke.

"The first is the White Water Mountain, located on the left of the defense line. Due to the highterrain and the bodies of water flanking the sides, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack. TheTimber Deity Empire has deployed ten thousand troops there. The second area is the Misty Plain,"he continued, pointing at another area on the map. "It would be difficult to attack here, as the fogremains thick all year round, forming a natural barrier. Only five thousand soldiers are deployed onthis plain. The rest of the troops are on the right wing of the defense line, which is at Dragon TigerRoad. The Dragon Tiger Road is relatively flat and wide, so it's easy to attack. Therefore, the TimberDeity Empire has gathered most of their military forces to defend themselves here.” Allen noddedtowards Rocky, indicating the end of his report.

"I see." Rocky scratched his chin, lost in his thoughts.
