The Medallion
Chapter 1372 Her Suspicion

"Where the hell are they?" Commander Zhang was quite confused by what he saw. Then, he was surprised when his eyes fell on the aloof evil shadow in the middle of the camp. He did not understand why the camp was suddenly empty and why the man was all alone.

"Catch him at once." Commander Zhang didn't want to return empty-handed, so he immediately signaled the spirit manipulators in the spearhead.

With that, several spirit manipulators rushed to attack the arrogant figure.

However, the figure suddenly raised a ferociously strong black flame on his body. In a blink of an eye, it spread everywhere, and the spirit manipulators were instantly burned to ashes before they could launch any attacks or scream.

Commander Zhang and his soldiers were shocked at what just happened. Their mouths were wide open and their eyes were full of fear.

"Well, let me play with you for a while." The figure confronted the spearhead team with an arrogant aura and momentum.

Then, a Magic Spiritual Space suddenly appeared beside the figure. Then, a huge human-shaped spirit-manipulated beast wearing an extraordinary icy armor jumped out of the Magic Spiritual Space. It let out a deafening roar to the sky and a strong eight-star aura filled the surroundings which was appalling.

As soon as the enemy saw the beast, they felt their legs wobble and grow weak.

Then, another beast which was covered in a clouded and colorful gauze slowly walked out of the Magic Spiritual Space like a noble empress. It was also an eight-star spirit-manipulated beast with an arrogant posture that seemed to make everyone surrender to it.

The appearance of two spirit-manipulated beasts shocked the spearhead team. They could not imagine how powerful a human spirit manipulator must be to summon two eight-star spirit-manipulated beasts at the same time!

Many soldiers in the spearhead were already frightened before the battle even began.

However, it didn't occur to the spearhead team that what was truly terrifying was not the two eight-star beasts, but the aloof figure approaching them. As he approached them, a sense of death was already spreading out which was rather terrifying.

Suddenly, the man and the two beasts rushed into the spearhead. After that, there were endless horrifying screams one after another. The icy light of the beasts constantly shone in the spearhead, but the most shocking one was still the aloof figure. The black flames shot out from his every move were like life-threatening runes which instantly turned everything they touched into ashes.

The five thousand spearhead soldiers were trembling with fear as they were beaten by the man and his two beasts.

Meanwhile, the spirit manipulator squad sent by Alyssa to burn the provisions had also arrived at the back of the South United Army's military camp. It was strange that there was no one there, but they immediately burned the provisions anyway.

Not long after the fire at the back of the camp soared into the sky, arrows rained down one by one into the camp. In an instant, the camp turned into a sea of fire as it burned down the whole place. Standing in the safety of their camp, Alyssa looked at the fire burning in the South United Army's military camp. Her eyes were cold with a complex expression on her face.

Soon enough, the news that the South United Army's camp was empty finally reached her.

"What? Their camp is empty? How is that even possible?" Alyssa asked in utter shock. She wondered if Rocky had already guessed what she was trying to do.

However, Alyssa was still very calm. She instantly sent people to track the South United Army and confirmed that they had retreated to the hill area to the east of the camp.

"He must have hardly contained his composure. Even if he has guessed what I was doing, the camp was completely burnt and there was little food left. If they didn't retreat, they could only attack. But without much food, they can only hold on for a few days," Alyssa firmly said.

Sure enough, the South United Army suddenly appeared in the front line the next day and they were led by Rocky.

Alyssa also personally appeared in the front line and intensely looked at Rocky.

"Where is Marcia? I don't see her." At that moment, Alyssa noticed that Marcia, who was supposed to be in the South United Army, was not among them, so she already had a guess in her mind. "Maybe she is planning an ambush. So, you must be careful!" Rocky mischievously replied with a cold smile on his face.

"Oh, really? An ambush? Then you're right; I have to be careful." Although Alyssa said so, she was totally confident in the defense she had set. So, in her opinion, even if Marcia really were somewhere for an ambush, it would be meaningless since her team would be forced out sooner or later.

Rocky waved his hand, and all the South United Army soldiers immediately shouted in unison to boost their morale. Then, they rushed to the enemy like a strong tide in the ocean.

And just like that, the two armies were fighting fiercely. The sound of fighting and shouting could be heard everywhere, and the momentum of each side was deafening.

However, Alyssa and Rocky, who were in the middle of the two armies, didn't move at all. They intensely looked at each other with their own thoughts reflected in their eyes.

Although the South United Army had the advantage in military strength, Alyssa seemed to have built an impregnable fortress especially with their advantage in terrain and their solid defense. This made the South United Army's attacks in vain.

The battle lasted for two days and two nights. Corpses were scattered all over the front line and blood was flowing like a river. It was a totally horrible battle. At least twenty thousand people were killed or injured in both armies.

But the battle continued, and neither Alyssa nor Rocky had any intention of retreating. It seemed that the two armies would fight against each other to death.

However, both the generals and soldiers of the two armies were exhausted because of the fierce battle. The South United Army was obviously at the disadvantage because of the terrain. The forty thousand South United Army soldiers led by Rocky were now reduced to less than ten thousand, while there were more than ten thousand soldiers on Alyssa's side. This made Rocky's team in an extremely disadvantageous position.

"Now it's the time to retreat." Rocky ordered his troops to finally retreat with a dismayed look on his face.

Soon enough, the South United Army quickly retreated like defeated dogs. They threw away their armor and shield and immediately ran away.

"Commander in Chief, are we going to chase after them? It's good to take them down while they're on the run," a commander immediately asked as he waited for further instructions.

But Alyssa began to be suspicious. She noticed that the South United Army soldiers led by Rocky seemed to be fewer than before. According to the previous intelligence, the number of their soldiers led by Rocky was at least seventy thousand. However, it was obvious that there were not that many soldiers fighting against them. In other words, some of the South United Army soldiers must have really planned an ambush and taken the opportunity to attack.

"He must have set a trap!" Alyssa firmly said.☐☐
