Chapter 1552 Being Assigned To Different Team
Upon hearing Eunice''s bold request, Tucker did not know whether to cry or tough. The war was not a
game meant for children. The deputymander was assigned to lead an army of three thousand
soldiers, which meant whoever was appointed would be responsible for three thousand lives, which
was a serious matter. Now that Eunice was demanding to be the deputymander, it would be out of
his control.
Besides, ording to the rules, onemander could have only three deputymanders under his
three existing deputymanders would have to be dismissed.
Except for Bertram, the other two deputymanders wore a gloomy face. They looked at Tucker,
hoping that themander wouldn''t agree to Eunice''s rude request. Even though she was a powerful
spirit warrior at the King Realm from the Sky-suppressing School, that wouldn’t secure her sess in
war. Being talented and leading an army weren''t rted. On the contrary, the two deputymanders
had endured through several hundreds of cruel battles and wars for over a decade. Both of them
possessed richer experience in terms of leading an army towards battle than a young woman.
"Eunice, stop fooling around. You don’t have any experience leading troops to battle. Being a deputy
"Haha! Eunice, you''re quite straightforward. It’s not impossible for you to be a deputymander. But
ording to military regtions, if one wants to be a deputymander, he or she must earn at least
three third-ss merits and two second-ss merits. As long as you aplish that, I will immediately
promote you to the position," said Tucker. He was a sly fox that knew how to deal with tricky situations.
"It''s a deal then, Commander Wang. You promised me this so don’t go back on your wordter!" Eunice
said confidently with a naughty blink.
"Of course I''ll keep my word," Tucker replied with a nod. Then he continued, "How about this? You two
can lead the spirit warriors under Deputy Commander Ma and Deputy Commander Lin." Then he
turned to the two deputymanders beside him.
"Eunice, you can join my army," Deputy Commander Lin said. He knew that if a beautiful warrior like
Eunice joined his army, it would greatly boost the morale of his troops.
"Why should you join his army? Eunice, I think you would be more suited to join my ranks. After all, I
am leading the spearhead. I’m sure that you''re eager to charge towards the enemy, seeing as to how
you''re the heroine and all," Deputy Commander Ma said firmly. He would never allow Deputy
Commander Lin to take this opportunity from him.
"Is your army the spearhead? If so, then I think it does suit me better. I''ll join you and your troops,"
Eunice said. She liked what Deputy Commander Ma told her and made her choice immediately.
Deputy Commander Lin''s expression darkened, but he knew there was nothing he could do to change
her mind.
"Then I''ll head over to your army, Deputy Commander Lin. I’m looking forward to it!" Rocky eximed
as he sped his hands in front of him out of respect.
Deputy Commander Lin merely replied with a wry smile.
Elliot didn''t want to suffer for nothing so he quickly stood up and asked aloud, "Uncle, you must punish
him for what he did to me! He beat me up!" He shot Rocky a venomous re.
"Basil, is what he said true? Or is there a misunderstanding?" Tucker frowned and asked Rocky after a

moment’s hesitation.
"Yes, I did hurt him," Rocky answered immediately.
"Is there any reason for you doing this?" Tucker probed further. In fact, he didn''t expect Rocky to
answer the question so directly as if he wasn''t afraid that themander would avenge his nephew on
the pretext of public interests. He was quite surprised.
"He''s your nephew so I’m sure you''re aware of what kind of person he is. All I can say is that if it
happens again, I''d do the same thing all over again," Rocky replied arrogantly.
Tucker was momentarily stunned by Rocky’s words. He immediately realized that Elliot must''ve
offended Rocky tremendously, otherwise thetter wouldn''t have made his statement. He gave Elliot a
stern re before hemanded, "Elliot, what are you waiting for? Apologize to him!"
"He hurt me. Why should I apologize? This is unfair!" Elliotined, shocked and exasperated.
"Apologize to him now or I will punish you in ordance with militaryw," Tucker ordered. He was
more worried about Elliot offending Rocky even further if he wouldn''t apologize now. If Rocky was a
narrow-minded man, he feared that Elliot would suffer serious consequences in the future.
"Fine... It''s all my fault! I''m sorry," Elliot said through gritted teeth. He wasn''t afraid of anything or
anyone, but the one exception to that was his uncle. Realizing he was left with no other options, he had
to apologize, though reluctantly.
Rocky nodded slightly and said nothing more.
Once he confirmed that Rocky wouldn''t stir up any more trouble, Tucker immediately ordered, "Then
please follow the two deputymanders and get to know each other!"
"Eunice, let''s go," Deputy Commander Ma said as he walked in front of Eunice with a huge smile. He
stretched out his hand and gestured her to leave with him, a look of pride stered on his face.
Eunice cast a nce at Rocky before she left with Deputy Commander Ma.
"We''re leaving, too," Deputy Commander Lin informed Rocky coldly as he left the tent without even
waiting for thetter to respond.
Rocky followed suit and left immediately as well.
"You may leave now, Elliot. Don''t start any trouble again. You''re lucky this time since Basil chose not to
make things difficult for you. If he had chosen not to show you any mercy, you would''ve lost more than
one hand!" Tucker shouted at Elliot in anger once they left.
"Yes, I understand." Although he agreed, Elliot thought to himself, ''I''ll show Basil how powerful I truly
am. What''s so great about being a King Realm spirit warrior? I don''t believe that I can''t defeat him.''
Then he left the camp, leaving Tucker and Bertram alone.
"Bertram, what do you think of the two King Realm warriors?” Tucker asked. Among the three deputy
shared various ideas and opinions freely.
"Do you want me to tell you how I really feel?" Bertram asked.
"Of course. Go ahead, please," Tucker said with a serious look.
"From my point of view, both have their distinctions and they seem easy enough to deal with. But if we
provoke them, then we''ll most likely pay a terrible price. Elliot is an example of that." Bertram
expressed his opinion.
"Yes, I feel the same way too. I felt it even more strongly when I faced Basil. Once he mentioned Elliot,
his eyes appeared to turn cold and, for a moment, he looked more like a monster than human," Tucker
said. He seemed to have noticed something different about Rocky.
"Anyway, we''d better not offend them. We''ll do our best to meet all their requirements. We need as
many people on our side as possible for the battle. With their help, I''m sure it''ll be to our advantage!
The most important piece of information we currently have is that Grand Commander Raiden Chen just
died during the war. That means his position is vacant and all themanders are now fighting for it
with all their might. We’ve been informed that within the next month, themander who would
contribute the most will be qualified for the position. This is an opportunity I don’t want to miss!" Tucker
revealed his intention.
The human army''smanders were ranked, from top to bottom, into army-leadingmander, grand
and thirty thousand soldiers. Lastly, one army-leadingmander could lead three grandmanders
and one hundred thousand soldiers.
Generally speaking, amander in chief would have at least two or more army-leadingmanders
and six grandmanders.
