CHAPTER 665 THE SPECIAL TRAINING
"Commander in Chief, why didn't you go to the commander's tent? Why did you choose to come to the
supply warehouse instead?" Commander Ron asked, confused.
The other commanders looked just as confused.
"Is there anything wrong with the provisions and fodders?" Isis asked.
"I summoned you all here to make an announcement. But before that, I'd like to show something,"
Rocky said mysteriously. Then, he summoned three wild spirit-manipulated beasts from his Magic
Spiritual Space. All of the beasts looked like motionless puppets from recently undergoing surgeries.
The others stared at him in astonishment, not knowing what was going to happen next.
"These beasts recently went through surgeries. We can use them as transportation tools. This benefits
everyone, including ordinary people. They will not attack anyone," Rocky explained, pointing at the
three spirit-manipulated beasts.
The audience looked at each other in surprise.
"Are you serious? Can we really use these wild spirit-manipulated beasts for transportation? Even
ordinary people? How is that possible? Not even spirit manipulators can tame wild spirit-manipulated
beasts!" someone from the audience chimed in.
The commanders murmured among themselves. They were all impressed by what Rocky just came up
with.
"You don't believe me? Who would like to come up and have a try? Simply give it a pat for it to move.
Pat twice to make it stop," Rocky announced as he demonstrated.
"I'll give it a try," Isis volunteered. She was a bit skeptical of Rocky's confidence.
"Are you sure it will listen to me?" She stared at Rocky with skepticism as she walked in front of one of
the beasts. It was two meter high. Normally, she wouldn't have dared come this close to it.
"Don't worry," Rocky said, smiling confidently.
"Let's go." Isis took her place on top of the beast and ordered it to move with a quick pat.
As Rocky promised, the wild spirit-manipulated beast started to move and walk forward.
"It's really moving!" People's jaws dropped in amazement.
"Stop." Isis patted the beast twice as per Rocky's instructions. owns this text.
"Rocky, how did you do it? How were you able to tame the beasts?" Isis asked in astonishment.
"Did you use some special training method?" Allen broke his silence. He had been standing quietly until
that point. He was curious and impressed, but definitely not surprised. Rocky was the disciple of the
most powerful beast tamer in the Wild Spirit Land. And everyone knew that he tamed beasts well.
"From here on out, the Crimson Dragon Army will use the improved wild spirit-manipulated beasts for
transportation. This way, we can get to places faster and transport our supplies more efficiently," Rocky
announced, crossing his arms in front of his chest.
"Commander in Chief, you're a genius!"
"Being the disciple of the strongest beast tamer in the Wild Spirit Land, you're indeed so awesome!"
"From now on, we won't have to worry about shortage of supplies."
The commanders exchanged excited remarks one after the other. Only Isis and Allen remained quiet.
Of course, this was just an episode.
They had a bigger concern ahead of them. They needed to defeat the Roaring Flame Empire troops
which guarded the left wing of the defensive line of the Timber Deity Empire.
After they had launched small-scale attacks for the last three days, it was clear to them that the
Roaring Flame Empire had an excellent defense system with fifty thousand soldiers.
"The defense of the Roaring Flame Empire troops is impenetrable," Rocky stated as he pulled out the
defense system map of their enemy. The fifty thousand soldiers were too much. They made a strong
defensive line, but this meant bad news for Rocky and his troops. It was obvious that the Commander
in Chief of the troops had the remarkable military talent.
"It's been three days. We still haven't found their weakness." Isis had been part of the battle the past
three days. But even with her skill, they couldn't break through the Roaring Flaming Empire troops.
"But if their army is so strong, I wonder what's stopping them from taking the offensive? Are they
waiting for us to retreat?" Allen guessed.
"The Roaring Flame Empire isn't trying to win. They're only supporting the Timber Deity Empire. Their
primary purpose is to ensure that the Timber Deity Empire is shielded against our attacks," Rocky
assessed.
"But even so, the Roaring Flame Empire is much stronger than what is expected for a defense line.
They are very difficult to get through. The more time we take to penetrate them, the more time we give
the Timber Deity Empire to beef up their army. At this point, perhaps more soldiers have joined their
army. We need to get through the defense line quickly, or else we'll be at a disadvantage," Isis said with
worry.
"That's right," Allen agreed.
"We can only have a chance to break the defense line, if we are able to provoke the Roaring Flame
Empire into attacking," Rocky said with a determined voice.
"Provoke them to attack us? That might be difficult. They are trained to stand in defense," Isis stated.
"Sure, they are on the defensive now. But once they weaken, they would have to launch an attack
eventually. The Commander in Chief of the Roaring Flame Empire would not be that patient. All we
need is a good bait to trick them into launching the offensive." Rocky had a sly smile on his face.
"But what good would it do? We are heavily outnumbered by them. The only way we can win is to
transfer at least ten thousand Crimson Dragon Army soldiers to join us," Isis remarked.
"We have no need to do that. What we have is enough. I'll go into battle tomorrow." Rocky had an
inscrutable smile. It was obvious to everybody that he was cooking up a plan.
By night time, flames from a bonfire illuminated the camp.
Rocky's shadows could be seen leaving the camp alone. He wanted to look for a quiet place to do
more surgeries on the remaining wild spirit-manipulated beasts.
As he settled in, a woman appeared in front of him. Without a word, she extended her hand and laid it
on his chest. Instantly, a beam of light was released from her palm.
Rocky merely stared at her familiar face, without doing anything else.
"The seal is starting to weaken," the woman said. She looked up, and Rocky could see the worry in her
eyes.
