Chapter 266 A Learned And Clever Person


    "That is no small favor! It''s a great kindness for northern sky military camp!" the Commander of the


    northern sky military camp eximed in excitement. He saluted and bowed to Rocky to show his


    respect and appreciation. Without Rocky''s help, the northern sky military camp might not have


    survived. Although they all wondered how Rocky lured a swarm of wild spirit-manipted beasts, it was


    no longer important at this point. What was important was that they survived and escaped a great


    tragedy. The military camp, the stronghold of the country, was not taken over and was still under their


    control. And he was still the Commander of the camp.


    The Commander showed such respect to this young man who seemed to have nothing special about


    him that it surprised every soldier and spirit maniptor in the northern sky military camp. Everyone


    was eager to know who this man was!


    "Commander, this is..." The Deputy Commander wanted to ask the Commander about Rocky.


    "He is.. a learned and very clever man..." The Commander realized that he knew nothing about Rocky


    other than a breeder from the northeast military camp. But he was pleasantly surprised to know that he


    also had an undiscovered expertise on military strategy and tactics. Even the Commander in Chief


    spoke highly of his tactical array. After a moment''s hesitation, he introduced him in a way that surprised


    everyone present.


    They knew full well that a man who was named as a learned and clever man by their Commander was


    absolutely not an ordinary person. So everyone honored him and chanted together, "Salute to you!"


    Rocky was ttered that everyone honored him like that. In his mind, he just wanted to make use of the


    troops of the military camp. But for the soldiers in the military camp, however, they thought Rocky


    saved them and considered him a godsend that helped them out of the trouble. His actions brought an


    unnned surprise and delivered him the unexpected good reputation among the troops. The


    reputation was a bonus for him. What he truly cared about was for the third grade of three star Dark


    Heaven Insect to be distracted away.


    "Take your men to the north. The men from Timber Deity Empire will take some time to get rid of the


    beasts..." Rocky told the Commander. The distraction went as nned. His next step was to lure the


    Dark Heaven Insect and make it follow him without drawing anyone''s attention.


    The Commander knew Rocky''s tactical skill well at this point; he did not object to Rocky''s suggested


    course of action. After Rocky finished his brief speech, the Commander asked respectfully, "May I have


    the honor to know your name?"


    "I am Rocky Bai," Rocky said casually.


    "Ah, Rocky! If you could help us repel the enemy onught and defeat them, it will be a great service


    to the empire! And we will owe this great debt to you," the Commander said. The Commander believed


    that they can beat the Timber Deity Empire if Rocky would give them a hand and use his tactical genius


    to form an array.


    "I have a better idea. Do you see that Dark Heaven Insect?" Rocky had no time to help the northern


    sky military camp to repel the enemy. But he needed their help since he wanted to distract the third


    grade of three star Dark Heaven Insect.


    "Yes, I see it. I think you are referring to the third grade of three star one. We didn''t expect this kind of


    rare Dark Heaven Insect would show up here. If we weren''t busy defending the camp, we would


    definitely go off to capture it and hand it over to the Crimson Dragon Group," the Commander said.


    Every spirit maniptor coveted a Dark Heaven Insect, let alone a third grade of three star one!


    "The Timber Deity Empire must want to have that Dark Heaven Insect, especially the spirit


    maniptors. If that insect was led off from the main group, the covetous spirit maniptors of the


    Timber Deity Empire would surely try to capture it, thus dispersing their troops. And when that happens


    you can ambush them, and cripple their army. Giving you the chance to wipe them outpletely,"


    Rocky said in a serious and authoritative tone.


    Rocky''s n was to lead off the Dark Heaven Insect by himself. Once the spirit maniptors from


    Timber Deity Empire started to chase the insect, he wouldn''t be able to capture it, since the Timber


    Deity Empire had the advantage of numbers. He wouldn''t win if he fought so many soldiers. So he


    needed help from the northern sky military camp.


    If the spirit maniptors from the Timber Deity Empire were engaged, he could carry out his n. And


    the northern sky military camp was his first choice to block off the enemy. To the northern sky military


    camp, however, it was a good strategy. Rocky would then have the chance to capture the insect and do


    the northern sky military camp another favor. This would kill two birds with one stone.


    "Such a good n! You truly deserve the reputation. I hope we seed with your n." The


    Commander felt good with the n and for the first time since the attack, he believed that sess was


    finally possible.


    "Now proceed with the evacuation north. I will take over the dangerous task of leading the Dark


    Heaven Insect away," Rocky said with grim determination.


    "No. Not that I doubt your ability. But that is too dangerous for you to do alone. I will dispatch a squad. If


    anything goes wrong, how will I be able to face Commander Marin and the Commander in Chief?" the


    Commander exined. Despite what he just said, the Commander could not help but admire Rocky for


    all he saw in his eyes was the determination to see this through no matter the risk or the cost. He had


    no idea that Rocky was close to the sixth grade of the Earthly Stage.


    "Don''t worry. I have a n. Remember that I have just led a swarm of spirit-manipted beasts


    through here. It will be safer if I execute this n alone. And I do not want the prestige either.


    Remember that we never saw each other today! Is that clear?" Rocky said in a serious tone. When the


    Commander was about to say something in protest, he waved his hand to dismiss it.


    The Commander was stunned by Rocky''s request. He knew that being the key person that brought


    about the defeat of the Timber Deity Empire''s invaders would bring great prestige and he''d surely be


    honored by the Commander in Chief. But Rocky threw all of that away. He was either a fool or a true


    genius with reasons that no ordinary man could understand.


    In truth, Rocky simply neither needed nor wanted unnecessary attention to himself. If Marin found out


    about his presence here, she would visit this camp and investigate why he was here. He knew that


    Marin would not ce any me on him for what happened here but he was sure that she would


    bother him to no end for this.


    If the Commander in Chief found out that he helped the northern sky military camp in repelling the


    invaders, he would definitely try to promote him to the base camp of Crimson Dragon Group again.


    Actually, he already wanted to promote him thest time for his performance in the Army g Contest.


    But if Rocky was transferred to the base camp away from the northeast military camp, he would lose

    much of the freedom and independence that he now enjoyed.


    "Keeping a low profile is not as easy to achieve as anyone would think," Rocky sighed and then


    disappeared.
