The Medallion
Chapter 1646 Come Straight To The Point

At the point, the troops led by Eunice, Kye, Tessa, and Ramon had successfully intercepted the troops of the spiritual race and were able to safeguard the entrance of the ruins. However, the enemy troops were still thriving to fight them.

However, as soon as Rocky and Harlan appeared at the entrance of the ruins, the troops of the spiritual race instantly froze in fear and retreated in a hurry.

Seeing that the enemy army had lost the will to fight back, Rocky deemed that it wasn't necessary to chase after them. Then, he quickly landed in front of the human army.

Eunice and the others had finally breathed a sigh of relief at the sight of Rocky. However, when they also saw Harlan behind him, they were a bit surprised.

"Everyone, thank you so much for your hard work," Rocky said with a big smile to Eunice and the three others who led the army.

"Well, it's not a big deal. Actually, it was such a pleasure to crush the spiritual race!" Tessa uttered excitedly. It was not that long when she joined the battle, but she already experienced a huge victory. That made her a little thrilled and confident.

"Wait for me here. I just have to go deep into the ruins with Harlan." After that, Rocky quickly entered the ruins while being accompanied by Harlan.

Apparently, the ruins had been long abandoned, and many buildings were almost buried in the sand. As they entered the place, Harlan didn't waste any time and led Rocky to the depths of the ruins.

When they arrived at the innermost part, a circular altar welcomed them. It looked very old and shabby with broken walls and eaves.

"Can you see the lampstand on the left side? Move it to the opposite direction," Harlan instructed as he pointed to the lampstand on the altar.

Rocky walked towards the altar at once. He pressed his hand on the lampstand and tried to move it hard. As soon as it turned, Rocky felt that the ruins started to slightly tremble.

Boom! Boom!

Then, a violent noise resounded, coming from the center of the altar.

Soon enough, the ground in the middle of the altar began to sink. At the same time, a dazzling light rose from it. Upon closer inspection, they saw that the light actually formed an enchanted barrier. Inside it was a stone table, and a mysterious-looking box was placed on top of it.

"The Star Beast Ring is inside that box. However, you must retrieve it yourself by entering the enchanted barrier," Harlan remarked.

Rocky nodded and slowly walked towards the altar. Then, he approached the altar and tried to touch it. In a flash, a tremendous force surged out and rushed directly towards him.

He was slightly caught off guard, but he didn't have any intention of retreating. Instead, he gathered all of his strength and resisted the power of the enchanted barrier. However, he soon found out that it might be a useless attempt. The power from the enchanted barrier was much stronger than he anticipated.

But just when Rocky couldn't hold on any longer, the divine power in his body was set ablaze and gushed out of his body to envelop him.

Soon enough, the overwhelming power of the enchanted barrier began to weaken. At the same time, Rocky felt more relaxed. Without anything that hindered him, he stepped into the enchanted barrier and entered it fully.

Seeing that, Harlan couldn't help but be a little bit surprised. However, at the back of his mind, he knew that this was what would happen. After all, if Rocky used to be the successor of the Holy Lord of the Star Divine Race from their old world, then he could surely adapt to the power in no time.

A moment later, Rocky stood in front of the stone table and opened the box on it. There, he found a simple-looking ancient beast face ring. In fact, he could vaguely feel the hidden beast soul energy from it. After picking the ring up, he decided to wear it on his finger. At that moment, he clearly felt a surging force rush into his body, causing the flames of his divine power to soar wildly.

"The Star Beast Ring activated my divine power again?" At that instant, Rocky was sure that the divine power that was flowing inside his body was much stronger than before. Although it was still much weaker compared to its peak state, it was enough to bring his strength above the Emperor Realm and close to the Shura Realm.

After a while, Rocky walked out of the enchanted barrier and cupped his hands in front of Harlan. "Thank you for all your help to obtain the sacred weapon."

"Well, this is fate, so you really don't need to thank me. Actually, I should be the one thanking you, because at last, I have already fulfilled my task. I have finally found the rightful owner of the sacred weapon," Harlan replied.

"So, what is your next plan after this?" Rocky quickly asked.

"Me? I've been guarding this place for hundreds of years. I guess it's time for me to take a break and travel the world. By the way, keep this Fire Pill with you. When the time comes, it might come in handy." Then, Harlan immediately spat out a pill that was wrapped in flames and handed it to Rocky.

"I don't think it's appropriate for me to have your internal beast core. I mean, would your strength be affected if you gave it to me?" Rocky asked expectantly.

"Well, it doesn't matter right now. But if you'll need anything in the future, you can call me through that Fire Pill," Harlan explained.

"I see. Thank you!" Rocky responded.

"All right. I will be leaving now. See you again someday." Upon saying that, Harlan instantly flew away and disappeared.

At the same time, Rocky also went back to the entrance of the ruins to reunite with Eunice and the others. Then, he led the army out of the forest to return to the battlefield where the middle army was. After settling the army down, Rocky immediately went to see Marcia and told her that he had obtained the sacred weapon of the Star Divine Race. As expected, Marcia was also surprised to hear this. After all, she didn't expect that some members of the Star Divine Race had also come to this world. However, it seemed that in the end, they had also gone extinct.

"So, have you regained your original strength?" Marcia asked expectantly, knowing that if Rocky could recover his great power, it would be the key for them to return to the world where they came from. "Unfortunately, I only recovered a part of it. But whenever necessary, we could always make use of the power of the sacred weapon," Rocky replied in a hopeful tone.

"I see. Then, at least, we can cling to a little hope," Marcia replied with a sigh of relief.

"That's right. For now, our next step to achieving our goal is to defeat the spiritual race. After that, we can use the power of the human race to go through the portal that leads to our original world," Rocky said with a serious expression.

"As we speak, the troops of the spiritual race at the front line are still suppressing our defense line. I'm afraid we need a bigger strategy if we want to resist them in one go," Marcia responded as she furrowed her brows.

"We need to replace a way to reverse the situation in a short time, right?" Rocky asked as if an idea suddenly entered his mind.

"What do you have in mind?" Marcia looked at Rocky upon realizing the change in his expression.

"Hmm. I am still thinking about it. But for now, I think I should go look for Alyssa to talk to her again," Rocky answered.

"You can just say that you miss her... You don't have to make such an excuse," Marcia said as she immediately showed a jealous expression on her face.

"Then, why not come with me?" Rocky suggested, trying to lighten up the atmosphere.

"Humph! Forget it. I still have a lot of things to deal with. Just go and return quickly!" Marcia replied as she rolled her eyes at Rocky.

Rocky just let out a faint smile and didn't utter another word.

Then, he eventually left the camp and rode on the Purple-flaming Phoenix to go directly to the front line of the spiritual race army. Since Alyssa was now in charge of the front line, it was much easier for him to look for her.

Right after sneaking into her tent, Rocky immediately saw Alyssa.

"Basil? What are you doing here?" Alyssa was obviously surprised to see Rocky suddenly appear in her quarters.

"Why? Can't I visit you?" Rocky replied, wearing a teasing smile.

"Humph! I know that you just came here to spy on our military secrets." Alyssa assumed that since they were on the opposing sides right now, Rocky didn't actually come for her.

"Why are you always so smart?" Rocky asked with a bitter smile.

"So, tell me. What do you want from me?" Alyssa asked straightforwardly.

"Since you want me to be direct, I will do so," Rocky said as his expression instantly became serious. "I want the information about the troops of the spiritual race."☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
