Chapter 490 To Protect Rocky


    At the same time, the spiritual power around Rocky surged sharply. Spiritual power in intecing ck


    and red colors enveloped his body like raging mes, increasing his might.


    Lance was also shocked when he saw the color of Rocky''s spiritual power. He had never seen this kind


    of spiritual power before. It was different from any other type of spiritual power—it was suffused with


    Fire.


    "You are a royal spirit maniptor?" Lance asked. Astonishment was etched on his face. Although he


    didn''t see the Dragon Spirit Mark on Rocky''s arm, his cultivation stage allowed him to perceive that


    Rocky was a royal spirit maniptor.


    Rocky raised his eyebrows and sneered, "Whether I am or not, does it matter? Now that Commander


    in Chief wants to kill me, he shouldn''t ask too many questions."


    "Young man, you''re already at death''s door, but you still have your nose in the air…" Lance was quite


    riled by Rocky''s arrogance. Had Rocky begged or exined to him humbly, he might''ve hesitated. But


    Rocky''s attitude was still so full of defiance and thus his anger burned even fiercer.


    Lance''s stare towards Rocky sharpened. The strong spiritual power his body emitted suddenly


    shrouded the whole tent. This made Rocky, Marin, and Sabina feel much more pressured.


    Marin knew that Lance wanted to kill Rocky and that it was already toote to stop him now. She,


    however, didn''t want to kill Rocky. She thought that it wouldn''t be toote to make a decision after her


    cousin woke up. Moreover, Rocky hadn''t given them any exnation. It was as if he was faced with


    some hard problems he couldn''t tell others. Therefore, it was a little hard for her to judge his crime only


    Property of N?)(velDr(a)ma.Org.


    by those two letters.


    But once Lance made up his mind, no one could change it.


    At this moment, Lance made a slight move, and in the next second, he already stood before Rocky.


    This scene didn''t scare Rocky in the slightest. Even though he knew he wasn''t a match for Lance, he


    wouldn''t sit still and wait for his death.


    Just as Lance was about to kill Rocky, a delicate figure suddenly appeared, surprising everyone. It was


    Sabina. The girl pulled Rocky back and confronted Lance. Obviously, her purpose was to stop Lance.


    "Sabina, what do you mean?" Lance shouted with a heavy voice. His eyebrows were raised because


    he found that Sabina had taken actions to protect Rocky on purpose.


    Rocky was surprised too. He didn''t expect that Sabina woulde forward to protect him. Of course,


    this wasn''t the first time. But to have the guts to stop Lance without fear for his sake, Sabina was


    definitely not someone simple.


    "Commander in Chief, I''ll be really bothered if you kill Rocky. As long as I am alive, I can''t let you kill


    him," said Sabina as she stared at Lance coldly.


    "Sabina, please get out of the way. No one can stop me from doing what I''m going to do—not even


    you," Lance said firmly. Apparently, he was determined to kill Rocky.


    "To be honest, the reason I''m here at Gehenna Border is because I was ordered to protect Rocky. If


    you kill him, my trip will be meaningless, and it''ll be very difficult for me to..." Sabina replied calmly. She


    had wanted to say more but stopped on second thought. In any case, what she was implying was that


    she wouldn''t let Lance kill Rocky.


    Rocky was baffled to hear what Sabina said. Who on earth instructed her to protect him?


    Her remarks also came as a surprise for Lance. Previously, he already had doubts regarding her


    purpose ofing to Crimson Dragon Group, but it had never once crossed his mind that Sabina was


    actually ordered to protect Rocky. In fact, Sabina wasn''t just a famousdy in the Holy Dragon Empire.


    She was also the apprentice of Marcia, one of the Three Great Generals of the Holy Dragon Empire.


    Since Sabina was ordered to protect Rocky, the order was obviously made by either the Ji n or


    Marcia. Nevertheless, considering the bad rtionship between Sabina and her family, it was very


    likely that Marcia was the one giving the order.


    Once this thought crossed his mind, Lance''s heart wavered. If Sabina was really following Marcia''s


    order to protect Rocky, Rocky must be someone very important for Marcia. That could also mean that


    he might be someone from the royal family, just like he had guessed before. If that was indeed the


    case, if he killed Rocky and alerted both the royal family and Marcia, the consequences would be


    unimaginable.


    Were it not for Sabina, Lance would''ve ignored Rocky''s background and made a big mistake. Lance, of


    course, only lost his head in anger temporarily. He loved his daughter very much, so he could be over


    the top with his protective gestures. After being reminded by Sabina, however, he finally regained his


    rationality. The strong aura from his body suddenly disappeared, and his killing intent also subsided. He


    just kept sending death res at Rocky, who stood behind Sabina.


    Upon seeing what Lance acted, Sabina said coldly, "Of course, apart from killing Rocky, Commander in


    Chief may do whatever he sees fit to deal with him. Considering the rtionship between me and Isis,


    if Rocky has really done something that hurt her, I''ll never let him get away. However, if we really want


    to deal with him, I think we''d better wait until Isis wakes up. We don''t know what exactly happened


    between him and Isis. Only when she wakes up can we know all the truth."


    "In addition, judging from the injuries on Silver Wind, it is obvious that it had a fierce battle with some


    kind of masters. In other words, something else might have happened before we met Rocky and Isis,


    and it was what caused Silver Wind to be seriously injured." After a pause, Sabina made a bold guess.


    Lance thought that what Sabina said made sense. He was impulsive just now, but he still thought that


    Rocky was to me for what had happened to his daughter.


    "For the sake of you and your master, I will spare his life for the time being. Though he can be spared


    from death, he still has to be punished! Now, I am announcing the canction of Rocky''s duty as an


    Elite Commander. He is to be relegated to the logistics camp as a breeder, effective immediately.


    Furthermore, Commander Marin, from now on, you should keep watch on Rocky. He cannot leave the


    logistics camp even for half a step. He won''t be convicted until Isis wakes up and we know the truth,"


    Lance ordered grudgingly, all the while ring at Rocky.


    "Going back to the logistics camp? That''s great… However, you''ll definitely regret this!" Upon hearing


    what Lance said, Rocky sneered and cast a yful look at him. When he spoke, however, his tone


    sounded firm.
