Chapter 388 Beyond Expectation
"Perceive what? Hi, bastard, you''d better get to the point right away and not beat about the bush in
front of me. I will make you feel remorseful about it one day unless you give me a legitimate
exnation now! I would have meted out retribution to youst time if Isis didn''t put in the appropriate
word for you. In such an instance, you would not be in a position to be here conversing with me." Lance
raped over the knuckles in a thundering voice, his thick brows raising. It implied that he was indeed
indignant with all guns zing with Rocky. The young man''s way of doing things had rubbed up the
improper way. In his assessment, being talented was something desirable, but it was utterly incorrect to
act in the devil may care way based on such talent.
After apprehending Lance''s words and getting a glimpse of his expressions, Rocky didn''t demonstrate
any hint of the heebie-jeebies at all. Instead, he looked as calm as the smoothest waters as usual. He
just took a few steps towards Lance and mumbled something by his ear.
Lance seemed somewhat taken by surprise to find out what Rocky said to him. He could not help but
blurt out, "How could that be?"
"Nothing isn''t worth considering! I''m scared stiff this is specifically the primary reason for the passive
situation the Crimson Dragon Army is involved in at present," Rocky suggested. His eyes were
shimmering.
"Do you have any proof?" Lance declined to be persuaded by him easily.
"When Wild Heaven Pass was ambushed at night, the gate was freed by a concealed traitor. Since the
Timber Deity Empire could organize their man among the troops at Wild Heaven Pass as our hidden
traitor, why couldn''t they settle on somebody else among the Crimson Dragon Group?" Rocky asked
back in a frosty voice after giving Lance a disparaging smile.
Lance was struck dumb by Rocky''s questions for a while. He had to acknowledge what Rocky said
made sense. The Timber Deity Empire would not have prepared their man at Wild Heaven Pass in
advance if they didn''t know precisely what the Crimson Dragon Army would do. Since the Timber Deity
Empire had known clearly what the Crimson Dragon Army would do, the mere tendency was that the
information was spilled the beans by some member of the Crimson Dragon Army.
"Besides, even if the main force of the Crimson Dragon Army was alone without any external support,
they had thirty thousand members. Thirty thousand is by no means a minor number, but the Timber

Deity Empire demolished them in a concise period of time. In the reasonable understanding, if they
couldn''t thrash the troops of the Timber Deity Empire, they still could withdraw. But as far as I
recognize, the Timber Deity Empire gave the concept of knowing the thirty thousand troops clearly like
the palm of their hand, so that the troops of the Crimson Dragon Army had nowhere to make their
getaway. What was more, the Deputy Commander in Chief dispatched troops to assist them at that
time, but the assistance troops were blocked and intercepted by the enemy just in time. How could that
happen if there was no concealed traitor to blow the gaff the information to the enemy?" Rocky added
in a split of seconds. Recently, Louis had conveyed intelligence to him during his absence. ording to
such knowledge, Rocky caught sight that the Timber Deity Empire suggested to constantly respond to
the Crimson Dragon Army''s strategies in an out of the typical rapid manner. However, even if the
Commander in Chief of the Timber Deity Empire was able to envisage with divine certainty, she could
not have foreseen every detail of the Crimson Dragon Army''s operation. The sole possibility would be
that the Timber Deity Empire was conscious of every detail about the Crimson Dragon Army not by
foreseeing but from somebody among the Crimson Dragon Army. In this way, they could be
apprehensive of what the Crimson Dragon Army would do in the following before thetter actually took
action, so that they could figure out countermeasures in advance.
Indeed, the Commander in Chief of the Timber Deity Empire was really tactful by sessfully
arranging their man in the Crimson Dragon Group without being gotten a glimpse of them by anybody.
And the disguised traitor who had been prepared by the Timber Deity Empire in the Crimson Dragon
Group must have been extremely good at sailing under false colors since there was still not any piece
of evidence about his identity.
Lance fell mute and began meditating as soon as Rocky finished talking. He perceived that if what
Rocky said was right, it would be dreadful news for the Crimson Dragon Army. Silence gnawed at his
insides. The silence was like a gaping void, needing to be filled with sounds, words, anything.
"That''s all what I demand to say. Commander in Chief, please agree to receive my words as a gift. But
if you want me to lend a hand for free, I will give the thumbs down to it without any equivocation. I
require something in return. This is my bottom line, and I will never strike a bnce!" Rocky said in a
conclusive tone. He was free from doubt that Lance would give in.
After giving Rocky a frosty stare, Lance turned over his hand and took out a middle-grade Dark Heaven
Egg and a yellow spiritual crystal. He stretched his hand, in which the two treasures were ced in
front of Rocky.
"I think they''re not a tolerable amount." Rocky made a fuss and shook his head in a chip on his
shoulder though he took over the middle-grade Dark Heaven Egg and the yellow spiritual crystal from
Lance''s hand.
"If you can certainlye to my aid, I will offer you a high-grade Dark Heaven Egg when everything is
positions above Elite Commander were qualified to get Dark Heaven Eggs, and they could only get one
middle-grade Dark Heaven Egg every three months. And they could acquire one yellow spiritual crystal
every six months. However, it seemed that they could not put Rocky''s mind at rest.
"A high-grade Dark Heaven Egg? I think that will be sufficient," Rocky added. His eyes lit up since he
had never set his eyes on a high-grade Dark Heaven Egg. He hadn''t had in the prospect that Lance
was in the spirit to pay him such a big price.
"Anyway, if you can''te to my rescue, in the end, I won''t let you take off! I will teach you a lesson no
matter who will intervene with me for you!" Lance dered in a twinkle of an eye in a distinguished
tone. He would never allow Rocky to pull a fast one on him.
"Commander in Chief, just hold your horses and see please," Rocky suggested. Raising his brows, he
turned around, having the intention to go.
"Where''re you going?" Lance asked confusedly when he recognized that Rocky was leaving. He wore
a perplexed expression.
"Of course I''m going to be of service to defend Wild Heaven Pass," Rocky answered as if nothing was
awry with his behavior.
"It''s already impossible like drawing water from stone to defend Wild Heaven Pass sessfully. If you
are to lend a hand, you should help protect Loyal Dragon Pass. We can take Wild Heaven Pass back
from the Timber Deity Empire when the reinforcement troops show up," Lance said, furrowing brows
slightly.
"Loyal Dragon Pass is besieged by the Commander in Chief of the Timber Deity Empire in person, isn''t
it? I will never court death on my own ord! Just set your heart at rest and have assurance in me! We
won''t lose Wild Heaven Pass. But I will give you a piece of advice. You don''t need to defend Frozen
River Pass here any longer. It''s nothing but a mere decorative pass," Rocky said in a somewhat
confident tone.
"A decorative pass? You imply..." Lance asked, confusion apparent on his face. His mind was a surging
perplexity
"Commander in Chief, I understand the reason why youe down in favor to defend Frozen River
Pass by yourself is that it is directly connected to Evian City, right?" Rocky asked as a smirk crept up at
the corners of his mouth. He grinned like the cat who got the cream
"Yeah. Is there anything wrong?" Lance inquired.
"Yes, and it''s something of concern. Sir, are you aware why the Timber Deity Empire chooses to attack
Wild Heaven Pass and Loyal Dragon Pass instead of attacking Frozen River Pass with all their
strength?" Rocky asked back instead of granting him a straightforward answer.
"Because the Timber Deity Empire is knowledgeable that we Crimson Dragon Army must choose to
defend Frozen River Pass with all our strength," Lance answered after pondering for a while.
"That''s it! Since the Timber Deity Empire is thoroughly briefed about the bizarre nature of Frozen River
Pass, they would never exhaust their forces by attacking Frozen River Pass. They didn''t do that before,
and they''re even less likely to do that now. That''s because they no longer have adequate forces to
attack Frozen River Pass. Besides, even if they can take Frozen River Pass from you, they don''t have
enough troops to defend it. All in all, in fact, Frozen River Pass is nothing but a fancy pass. Since the
troops of the Timber Deity Empire would not attack Frozen River Pass, there''s no distinction between
securing it by ten thousand people and by one hundred people. Commander in Chief, do you recognize
what I mean?" Rocky said, a purposeful beam on his face. Then he turned around and walked outward.
"I see." As an astute man, Lance was in a sh brought up to speed by Rocky''s words. With dumb
strike expression on his face, staring at Rocky''s back, he talked under one''s breath to himself, "This
bastard is undeniably intelligent!"
As rapidly as Rocky stepped out, he saw the Commanders were cooling their heels outside. Standing
in a circle, they were talking and discussing. It suggested that they were waiting with bated breath to
witness Rocky being punished by Lance.
So all of them were caught on the hop to see Rocky walk out in this way. Sound and safe, he popped
up in front of them with a huge smirk on his face like a Cheshire cat. What was more, he was ying
with a crystal Dark Heaven Egg and a yellow spiritual crystal.
"That... that is a middle-grade Dark Heaven Egg, right?"
"And the other one is a yellow... yellow spiritual crystal, right?"
all of the Commanders were in a howl of protest.
