The Medallion
Chapter 1594 As Expected (Part One)

Right after they left the tent, Rocky assembled five thousand soldiers which mainly consisted of members of the Swimming Army and a dozen spirit warriors. He planned to use them to form a surprise attack troop.

Ten thousand troops, created mostly from the Shield Army and the Changing Army, remained to guard the Wild Hill Pass. Tucker would have to use the mysterious military arrays that the Shield Army and the Changing Army had mastered if he wanted to guard the pass for a full day.

Since the spiritual race's army could attack at any time, Rocky quickly led the surprise attack troops away from the Wild Hill Pass. They walked fast and soon came to a spot that was one mile away from the Tiger Whisker Pass. That was where they would make their ambush. When the main force of the spiritual race's army exited the city and departed to attack the Wild Hill Pass, Rocky and his men would take action.

In past battles, the spiritual race had lost several thousand soldiers, but there were still about forty-five thousand left. When their main force attacked the Wild Hill Pass, at least twenty thousand soldiers were going to be left behind. Rocky only had five thousand soldiers with him and they had to win back the Tiger Whisker Pass. There was no doubt that it would be a challenge.

However, Rocky had prepared for all of that. With the help of a dozen Human-shaped Giant Beasts, the five thousand soldiers would be able to intimidate the spiritual race's army and face them head on. Early in the morning of the second day, Phelps personally gathered nearly thirty thousand soldiers and took them to the Wild Hill Pass, intending to kill all of Tucker's troops. Just under twenty thousand soldiers were left in the Tiger Whisker Pass, which was less than Rocky had anticipated.

Rocky waited for two hours to confirm that the army led by Phelps had arrived at the Wild Hill Pass. Then, he immediately summoned the Human-shaped Giant Beasts from the Magic Spiritual Space and placed them on the left side of the city wall of the Tiger Whisker Pass. Because he had taken the time to modify the spiritual beasts, they followed all his orders without hesitation.

The leaders of the remaining soldiers that were guarding the Tiger Whisker Pass were the two commanders of the spiritual race and Phelps' subordinates.

After learning that a group of spiritual beasts had attacked the city, the two commanders were left confused. They hurried to the city wall and were further dumbfounded to replace that the spiritual beasts outside of it were the Human-shaped Giant Beasts they had brought here.

"Where did these spiritual beasts come from?" the commander wearing the yellow robe asked, not able to take his eyes off of the huge beasts.

"I thought they had been killed," the commander wearing the blue robe replied, also looking confused.

"Commander, how should we deal with them?" a deputy commander asked, looking to his leaders for further instructions.

"Summon all the beast tamers out of the city and see if they can subdue the spiritual beasts!" the commander wearing the blue robe ordered after sharing a glance with the other one.

They assigned a team of three thousand soldiers to protect a group of beast tamers from the spiritual race. Then, the group marched out of the city. The moment that they approached the Human-shaped Giant Beasts, the beast tamers tried to tame them once more.

But as soon as the Human-shaped Giant Beasts saw the spiritual race's army, they became enraged. They charged and trampled on the people as aggressively as they could. Filled with fear, the spiritual race's army gathered the beast tamers and rushed them back into the city.

After they saw that several beast tamers were unable to stop the Human-shaped Giant Beasts from approaching the city wall, the two commanders of the spiritual race turned so pale that they were almost translucent. "Shall we report what's happening to the grand commander right away?" the commander wearing the yellow robe asked.

"The grand commander is not here. He's leading an army to attack the Wild Hill Pass. We can't ask him to turn around now. Besides, this is nothing but a herd of spiritual beasts. If we want, we can just order our spirit warriors to kill them!" It was clear that the commander wearing the blue robe didn't take the Human-shaped Giant Beasts seriously.

"But these spiritual beasts are powerful. Besides, we don't know if our enemies are behind this. They could be controlling them..." In comparison, the commander wearing the yellow robe was extremely cautious.

"How could anyone be able to control them? Ha-ha! Our enemy isn't Beverly," the commander wearing the blue robe commented, sneering.

"You are right." The commander wearing the yellow robe thought that what his companion had said made sense.

"There's no need to create fear. Send the spirit warriors to deal with the spiritual beasts."

In no time, the two commanders had made the decision to send in a team made up of dozens of spirit warriors to slaughter the Human-shaped Giant Beasts.

There wasn't a single worry in their minds that the beasts were under the control of Rocky.

In fact, Rocky didn't only intend for the Human-shaped Giant Beasts to break through the city wall. He wanted them to draw out the team of spirit warriors from the spiritual race's army. That team was their core power. Once the team was weakened, the rest of their soldiers would panic and their morale would plummet.

Therefore, the moment that the spirit warriors of the spiritual race left the city, Rocky led a dozen spirit warriors towards them.

As the enemy spirit warriors started to battle with the Human-shaped Giant Beasts, Rocky and his team of spirit warriors began to attack them.

Fortunately, despite the large number of spirit warriors from the spiritual race, most of them were at the Spirit Realm and only a few of them were at the primary stage of the Spiritual Infant. Rocky could defeat them all in minutes.

Plus, he was able to manipulate a dozen Human-shaped Giant Beasts to help them at the same time.

After surrounding the spirit warriors, Rocky, his men, and the Human-shaped Giant Beasts turned the spirit warriors from the spiritual race into easy prey.

In less than four hours, most of the spirit warriors from the spiritual race had been killed or injured.

The two commanders of the spiritual race had no way of guessing that Rocky had planned to advance with a group of spirit warriors from the human race and work together with the Human-shaped Giant Beasts. In the end, the spirit warriors they had sent out fell into their enemy's trap.

When they saw that the situation was turning ugly, the two commanders from the spiritual race ordered for the rest of their spirit warriors to retreat. Out of dozens of spirit warriors, only a dozen had managed to escape and reenter the city.

The fact that the spiritual race's army had lost a lot of men caused the soldiers' morale to dwindle and quickly.

Meanwhile, without any resistance, the Human-shaped Giant Beasts instantly encroached on the left side of the Tiger Whisker Pass's city wall and launched a powerful attack.

Although the spiritual race's troops who were guarding the pass tried their best to resist the attack, without the help of the spirit warriors, they were unable to stop it.

In less than half a day, the beasts had managed to put a large hole in the left side of the city wall.

Now that they had an opening, Rocky led a group of five thousand soldiers, which mainly consisted of the Swimming Army and spirit warriors, to attack from the outside of the opening. They allowed the Human-shaped Giant Beasts to provide them with some protection. But soon, they were blocked by the strong force of the spiritual race's army ahead of them.000000
