The Medallion
Chapter 1630 Five Thousand VS One Thousand

"I see. Can you tell me more about it?" At this point, Rocky's strength was very clear to Moore. Since he and Marcia had already made a plan on how to deal with the army of the spiritual race, he didn't feel the need to question it. Moreover, the two of them were both commanders of the rescue team, so there shouldn't be any unnecessary competition between them. After all, once they failed to cooperate and came into a disagreement, it would just risk the success of the rescue plan.

The battle at the Tiger Whisker Pass had made Rocky a sensation. Although not all soldiers in the human army were able to witness Rocky's greatness, they had become very familiar with the name Spiritual King Basil. Because of this, many soldiers and generals in the rescue team looked at him with high regard.

Hence, if Rocky was the one who formulated the rescue plan, the morale of the rescue team would also inevitably improve. Therefore, even though Moore wanted to make contributions, he was smart enough to put the overall situation first.

At Moore's request, Rocky immediately took out the topographic map of the Sky Fog Plain that he got from Marcia. Then, he began explaining the plan that he had come up with her. During Rocky's explanation, Moore's mind was in a tumult as the plan began to unveil before his eyes. He was actually stunned by how astute and resourceful Rocky could be. He started to realize how the spiritual race's army, which was supposed to be more powerful than them, would be defeated easily in the battle at the Tiger Whisker Pass.

"So, do you have any other suggestions?" Rocky asked after explaining the plan in detail.

"I don't think so. It is indeed brilliant. The only thing that concerns me is if we can actually carry it out smoothly. After all, we are not yet familiar with the terrain of this plain. There is a possibility that our men will get lost and enter the enemy's trap by mistake. If that happens, the whole plan will go south quickly," Moore remarked as he pointed out a key factor that would directly affect the plan.

"Yes, that is a good point. You really are perceptive. The terrain of the plain will indeed affect the success of the plan, so we will have to use the power of the spiritual beasts in the Sky Fog Plain to lead our way This way, we can avoid any unnecessary casualties." It seemed that Rocky had already taken this into consideration and had made the appropriate measures.

"Oh, yeah! I heard that you are proficient in beast taming! That would be really useful for us in this situation. I really admire the diversity of your talent!" Upon hearing what Rocky said, Moore understood that everything in this plan had been already accounted for. He couldn't help but sigh, thinking that Rocky was really a rare talent from heaven. Not only did he have enough experience, but he was also very proficient in lots of skills. Even though Moore was supposed to be one of the most outstanding disciples that the Sky-suppressing Mansion had ever had in the past decade, he still felt inferior to Rocky.

"Ha-ha! I am flattered. I think I have an above-average understanding of it, but I am not that great," Rocky humbly replied.

"Anyway, we'll study the plan more and carry out the rescue mission tomorrow to the best of our abilities," Moore said confidently.

Rocky just nodded and let out a faint smile.

Not long after, the rescue team began to arrange everything they needed according to Rocky's plan.

At the same time, Rocky led a team of a thousand soldiers to a residential area of spiritual beasts in the Sky Fog Plain. Their goal was to capture as many spiritual beasts as possible overnight. Soon enough, the following day began.

The rescue team had been deployed and they marched towards the Sky Fog Plain.

But before the rescue team took action, Rocky formed a smaller team comprised of spiritual beasts to lead the way onto the blockade of the spiritual race's army.

Their main plan was to use the rescue team as bait. They were responsible to make some chaos around the blockade to catch the attention of the spiritual race's army. At the same time, Marcia would lead her troops and break through the siege from the edge of the blockade in order to split the enemy army into two, forming two separate battlefields. This way, the rescue team that were led by Rocky might have a higher chance of overwhelming their enemies.

After a while, the leading team led by Rocky arrived at the border of the blockade of the spiritual race's army.

From there, Rocky immediately spotted that at the center of the blockade, the forces of the spiritual race were distributed in a fan-shaped pattern to block Marcia's troops on the southwest side of the plain. After carefully observing the surrounding terrain, Rocky instructed the army of the spiritual beasts to move towards the western part of the blockade area of the spiritual race.

"Soldiers, listen to me. Form an array that would cover the spiritual beasts." Deeming that it was already the time to take action, Rocky immediately ordered, "Move forward in the array of the flying wing. Don't stop!"

With his command, Rocky's troops marched towards the blockade without hesitation.

At the same time, the spiritual race's army was also taken by surprise when a small group of humans suddenly raided the blockade area. However, they soon found out that this troop was only comprised of a thousand soldiers. Seeing this, the commander of the spiritual race's army didn't dare to be careless and ordered a spearhead of five thousand soldiers to confront the human army.

In just a moment, Rocky's troops clashed with the spearhead of the spiritual race.

When the deputy commander, who was leading the spearhead, saw that Rocky's army just consisted of a thousand soldiers whose fighting abilities were not as powerful as the spearhead army led by him, he didn't even try to take the enemies seriously.

"Humph! Kill them all! The audacity of these humans to appear before us with their weak armies! Are they belittling us?" the deputy commander gave the order in a stern voice.

Without any hesitation, the spearhead of the spiritual race immediately gathered, formed an array, shrank their encirclement, and charged towards Rocky's army.

Each of the soldiers of the spiritual race had a strength that was much greater than that of the human race. Hence, as soon as the two sides clashed, Rocky's army was instantly suppressed by the spiritual race's army.

However, it seemed that the deputy commander didn't even plan to join the fight. He just stood proudly on the sidelines and watched as his army took down the enemy troops. Then, he told Rocky, who had not made a move yet, "What the hell are you trying to accomplish? You, humans, are no match for us. Surrender now before we end your lives!"

Then, Rocky replied flatly, "I don't really think so. Well, yeah, the spiritual race are more powerful. But on the battlefield, you should not underestimate us. Wait and see!"

"Ha! I even considered to keep you alive to serve me. But I will not tolerate your insolence. I will gladly chop off your head together with all of your men!" The deputy commander fumed in anger as he gave Rocky an extremely cold glare.

Immediately after, the deputy commander gave another order, making the attacks of their spiritual beasts more violent than before. At this point, it was just a matter of time before Rocky's troop gave in. However, Rocky was still as calm as ever. At this moment, he finally commanded his soldiers to deploy a mysterious military array. As soon as the array was deployed, the human army had quickly gotten back on their feet. Then, the soldiers stood firm and launched a counterattack. In the end, the two sides fell into a stalemate. Because of this, the human soldiers realized that the spiritual race's army was not as tough as they had expected. They only had a thousand soldiers, but they could fight equally against a force of five thousand. This way, their morale got higher and higher.

Seeing this sudden turn of events, the deputy commander's eyes widened and his face became sour. He didn't expect that his army would have a hard time defeating an army that only had a thousand soldiers Taking the opportunity, Rocky shouted, "So, is it the limit of your army? It seems that your men are having a hard time. Why don't you call for reinforcements?"

"Arrogant bastard! You will not get away with this!" the deputy commander roared angrily, feeling very humiliated. With this, he immediately joined the battle, deciding to take on Rocky personally.

It turned out that his Spiritual Infant was also at the advanced stage. Thus, upon joining the fray, the momentum of the human troops immediately collapsed. His spiritual power swept across the whole area, and it seemed that the array formed by the human army was about to be dispersed.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
