Chapter 698 A Heavy Blow
"All soldiers, retreat!" At this point, Rockymanded the Crimson Dragon Army and they retreated
quickly into the Yu City.
The soldiers of the Holy Sea Empire, who just arrived in the city, failed to attack the Crimson Dragon
Army. However, the twomanders of the Holy Sea Empire didn''t want to give up that easily. They
immediatelymanded their troops to attack the city.
After a day and a night, the troops of the Holy Sea Empire lost another three thousand soldiers without
even breaking through the city gate. Because of the heavy losses, the Holy Sea Empire troops stopped
attacking.
The next day, the Holy Sea Empire troops, worn out and defeated, suddenly left the Yu City.
At that point, when Rocky saw from the wall of the Yu City that the troops of the Holy Sea Empire had
retreated, he immediately turned to Isis and the others. He said, "My guts are telling me that the Holy
Sea Empire soldiers may be heading towards the Heaven Unicorn City. Isis, you and Commander Qin
lead three thousand soldiers to guard this city. Sabina and I will lead the remaining five thousand
soldiers to go back to watch over the Heaven Unicorn City."
"But are five thousand soldiers enough to protect the Heaven Unicorn City? I am worried that we may
be outnumbered," Isis spoke worriedly. The Heaven Unicorn City was easy to attack but hard to
defend. And they only had five thousand soldiers there, while the Holy Sea Empire had at least twelve
thousand soldiers. Even if they defended till death, they might not be able to protect the city.
"We have to at least try our best. I believe in the capabilities of our soldiers. As long as we can protect
the Heaven Unicorn City, the three cities will be safe. Besides, I think the remaining fifteen thousand
soldiers or so will definitely not be sent out that easily if the Holy Sea Empire wants to defend the Mont
City," Rocky stated firmly and assertively. He firmly believed that as long as they could defend the
Heaven Unicorn City, they would have the upper hand during the battle.
"Okay, just please be careful in dealing with the Holy Sea Empire. I''ll recruit more soldiers in the Yu City
to assist you..." Isis said. Her face was really painted with worry.
Rocky and Sabina hurried to the Heaven Unicorn City after the discussion. They led five thousand
soldiers to defend the city.
One dayter, the twomanders of the Holy Sea Empire along with twelve thousand soldiers arrived
at the Heaven Unicorn City. When they saw that there was no one guarding the city wall, they
immediatelyunched an attack to invade the Heaven Unicorn City. However, as soon as they started
to move, countless figures appeared on the originally empty city wall. The figures began to make a
violent attack against the Holy Sea Empire troops.

The twomanders of the Holy Sea Empire were astounded as they didn''t expect that arge group
of soldiers would suddenly emerge from the Heaven Unicorn City.
At this moment, two figures appeared on the city wall. The two figures nced at the Holy Sea Empire
soldiers who seemed to be in panic.
These two figures were Rocky and Sabina.
"It''s a shame that they are much slower than us!" Rocky muttered with a smile. He had already
anticipated that the Holy Sea Empire troops would turn to attack the Heaven Unicorn City after they
failed to conquer the Yu City. Therefore, he had asked Louis to figure out a shortcut for returning to the
Heaven Unicorn City. With that information, they of course could move faster and arrive at the Heaven
Unicorn City before the Holy Sea Empire soldiers, who weren''t familiar with the terrain there.
The Holy Sea Empire troops failed to capture the city again because Rocky took the troops back to
protect the city. Two dayster, more than half of the Holy Sea Empire soldiers were lost. As for the
soldiers led by Rocky, there were only about two thousand soldiers left.
On the third day of battle, the Holy Sea Empire soldiersunched another fierce attack.
Since there were only about two thousand soldiers of the Crimson Dragon Army left, the defense
became more difficult. Although Rocky and Sabina went into battle together, the soldiers led by them
were heavily outnumbered by the Holy Sea Empire soldiers. Therefore, they were unable to resist the
attack and the Holy Sea Empire soldiers eventually broke through the city gate.
Just as the Heaven Unicorn City was about to be captured, several thousand soldiers of the Crimson
Dragon Army suddenly appeared behind the Holy Sea Empire troops, attacking them by surprise.
Those soldiers fought bravely and aggressively as they rushed into the city to join and assist Rocky,
Sabina and about two thousand soldiers.
"Rocky..." The woman who led the army was Isis.
At this critical moment, Isis led the soldiers to help Rocky and his soldiers. This could undoubtedly
protect the Heaven Unicorn City from being conquered. With the help of the several thousand soldiers,
the Crimson Dragon Army sessfully resisted the Holy Sea Empire and forced them to retreat from
the city.
Under the leadership of Rocky, Isis, and Sabina who respectively employed their own remarkable
military tactics, the Crimson Dragon Army fought more bravely. The battle cost half of their forces to
annihte the remaining several thousand Holy Sea Empire soldiers.
Up to now, Rocky had sessfully defended the Yu City and the Heaven Unicorn City with no
reinforcements. They exterminated twenty thousand Holy Sea Empire soldiers in total.
The news that Rocky had seeded in defending the Yu City reached Alston. He was in the Crimson
Dragon Army''s camp in front of the defensive line of the Timber Deity Empire.
"What? Did I hear that right? You mean that Rocky sessfully protected the Heaven Unicorn City and
the Yu City? Are you sure about this information? And he has even made the Holy Sea Empire lose
twenty thousand soldiers..." Alston''s eyes widened in surprise and disbelief. It was incredible. Logically
speaking, the Holy Sea Empire troops were very powerful and they were capable of conquering the Yu
City and the Heaven Unicorn City. However, they failed to do that and even lost twenty thousand
soldiers.
"Yes, the information ispletely urate," the spirit maniptor answered with cupped hands. He
was dressed in a ck robe, and was kneeling down on one knee before Alston.
"This is impossible! How could he get so many soldiers to fight?" Alston screamed in disbelief and he
looked a little crazy. ording to the previous information, Rocky had only less than three thousand
soldiers. All in all there were less than ten thousand soldiers with the addition of the soldiers of the Yu
City and the Heaven Unicorn City. Under such circumstances, how could he possibly defend both the
Yu City and the Heaven Unicorn City?
"Your Royal Highness, I am afraid to tell you that something terrible happened." Just then, a Frontline
Commander rushed in hurriedly.
"What is this terrible thing that happened?" Alston shouted angrily as he red at the Frontline
Commander.
"I have received the information from the right-wing defense line that thirty thousand Timber Deity
Empire soldiers suddenly appeared at the right-wing, and the soldiers of the Magic Dragon Army were
attacked as they were off guard. They suffered a great loss..." the Frontline Commander reported in a
trembling voice. He seemed scared by the situation.
"What?" Alston waspletely shocked.
"Your Royal Highness! Grave news!" Just then, another Frontline Commander rushed in.
Alston''s face darkened. He stared at the Frontline Commander with raging anger in his eyes.
"The Roaring me Empire soldiers have suddenlyunched an attack..." the Frontline Commander,
who just came in, uttered in a low voice as he trembled with fear.
These pieces of bad news were undoubtedly a blow to Alston. He was confident that it was a piece of
cake to deal with Rocky. And since the Crimson Dragon Army was in a dominant position, it would be
easy to break through the Timber Deity Empire''s defensive line. However, he didn''t expect that the
situation would suddenly change into something terrible like this.
Two dayster, when the Timber Deity Empire troops got their reinforcements, they joined hands with
the Roaring me Empire troops to fight against the Crimson Dragon Army. The soldiers of the
Crimson Dragon Army were forced to retreat back. In desperation, Alston had no choice but to gather
all the soldiers and retreat to the front-line main camp.
