Chapter 1642 Beverly''s Diversion
"It''s a deal. We don''t have to enter this ce. After all, we have nothing to do here anyway. We just
came here to stop the army of the spiritual race. But since we''ve already got what we want, we can
leave right away. Our apologies for interrupting you, sir. Please let us go in peace," Rocky said
respectfully. It was clear to him that it wasn''t the right time to offend and pick a fight with this Emperor
Realm spiritual beast.
Upon hearing this, the spiritual beast looked in the distance and said in a serious tone, "I hope you are
telling the truth. The sacred forbidden area cannot be defiled at all costs. So, if you will not keep your
promise, I''ll be sure to kill you no matter what."
Although Rocky suspected that the relic being hidden there might have something to do with the Star
Divine Race, he could not take any risk. No matter how eager he was to explore the ce, he could not
put the lives of hisrades in danger. Moreover, the important thing right now was to stop the n of
the spiritual race''s army. Since it seemed that they had fulfilled their goal, he could still wait for another
chance.
"Everyone, listen to me! Keep the formation as we retreat from the forest. Do not let your guard down,"
Rocky ordered at once. Although the spiritual beast gave its word to let the human army go, Rocky still
strictlymanded everyone to be vignt.
Then, Rocky''s troops gradually left their of the spiritual beast and got out of the attacking range of
the other spiritual beasts.
At the same time, Eunice rushed to Rocky''s side and whispered, "Why are we leaving? This spiritual
beast doesn''t seem to be that powerful. We''ve got so many soldiers here. Why don''t we take it down
ourselves just in case the spiritual race seeds?"
In front of the Emperor Realm spiritual beast, Rocky didn''t dare to rx even for a moment. Thus, he
nced at Eunice and said, "It''s not that simple. You can''t underestimate that spiritual beast. If we don''t
have enough confidence to quickly bring down all the spiritual beasts that are guarding it, it will be
impossible for us to seed. Moreover, even I don''t have the confidence to defeat it on my own. Once
it fights back seriously, I can tell that its power will be enough to annihte all of us. But at the same
time, the spiritual beast is very smart. It knows that if it engages us, the spiritual race''s army will take
that chance to take action. That is why it chose to let us leave peacefully."
"Are you saying that it wanted us to leave so that it can focus and contain the spiritual race''s army?"
Eunice asked with narrowed eyes.
Rocky nodded and replied, "Yes. The beast''s mission is to guard the deepest part of the primeval
forest. If what it said about the sacred weapon is true, then my gut says that the spiritual race''s army
isn''t really after the spiritual beast. They''re here for the sacred weapon."
As the spiritual beast saw that Rocky already led his army to retreat from the forest, it looked up at the
sky and heaved a sigh. "It seems that my mission here is about toe to an end. But in the
meantime, I shall do my best to dy it further and keep the sacred weapon safe. However, just in
case, maybe I can entrust it to that humanmander. He has a certain aura that feels very familiar..."
On the other hand, Rocky didn''t know what was running on the mind of the spiritual beast. Because of
his strange familiarity to it, it chose to let them go after testing his intention. Otherwise, with the strength
of the spiritual beast, it could simply ughter them all on the spot.
At the same time, because Rocky had to activate the Army-blessing Scroll and the mysterious military
arrays when theyunched a surprise attack on the spiritual race''s army, the soldiers of the human
army needed to take a rest. Therefore, right after they got out of the forest, Rocky ordered his troops to
take a break but remain alert, as much as possible. He arranged patrols and defenses, and he also
sent some spies to monitor the movements of the spiritual race''s army.
Meanwhile, the spiritual race''s army, which took a fatal blow when Rocky''s army suddenly surprised
them, had retreated to the periphery of the forest to recuperate. They didn''t expect that they would
sustain heavy casualties while they were on an important mission.
"Commander Beverly, what happened back there? Why did the human army suddenly appear? It is so
suspicious. Did someone leak our ns to them?" The two Emperor Realm masters, who came with
the army, pulled a long face.
"I don''t know either, but what you''re saying is impossible. The human army has no way of knowing our
n because it was secretly ordered by Commander in Chief Alyssa. So, except for the three of us, no
one else knows about this," Beverly replied as she shook her head.
"Anyway, now that the human army knows what we are doing here, I''m afraid that the mission will
be harder. It won''t be easy to subdue the spiritual beast guarding the forest, let alone get to the
exact location of the sacred weapon," the master in blue said with furrowed brows.
"I agree. The one who leads the human army will especially be troublesome. He is the one who made
me suffer great losses before. With his ability to control beasts, I''m sure that he will use it again to his
advantage!" Beverly said through gritted teeth as she remembered how Rocky defeated her previously.
"If that is the case, I think it will be wiser if we get rid of the human army first. Why don''t we hatch a
n to kill theirmander? Once he''s gone, it will be easy to eliminate the whole army," the master in
blue haughtily suggested.
"I don''t feel the need to be hasty. Besides, Commander in Chief Alyssa specifically told us that this n
will have a great impact on our next battle with the humans. Hence, obtaining the sacred weapon is
more urgent. We cannot engage with the human army again if we are not a hundred percent sure that
we can defeat them," Beverly answered sternly.
"Do you have a better n then,mander?" the master in white asked expectantly.
"Yes. I am nning to make a deal with the humanmander," Beverly replied with a straight face.
"You will make a deal? And what will be its content?" The two masters asked out of curiosity.

"As of now, I don''t think the human army knows the existence of the sacred weapon. Hence, if we can
create an borate lie, we can make them cooperate with us. We''ll say that our goal is to get an
internal beast core from the spiritual beast''s body, and if they help us take down the beast, we will
share it with them. But of course, in the end, we will turn against them after we defeated the spiritual
beast. Isn''t that much better?" Beverly asked as she exined her n.
"I''m afraid that is very ideal. It may only work if the humanmander is such a fool." The master in
blue responded with hints of doubt in his voice.
"The internal beast core is very special to spirit warriors that can help them control beasts. Once he
possesses it, he will be able to control all kinds of beasts. Maybe for you, the offer is not that tempting.
But once he hears it, I know he will consider it," Beverly said with a confident smile.
"Well, I hope so. All right, let''s do your n first!" Although the masters were a bit reluctant, they still
decided to follow Beverly''s n. After all, she was the sister of the deputymander in chief. They
didn''t want to tantly disagree with her out of courtesy for her older brother.
Hence, after they reached an agreement, Beverly quickly walked out of her tent and left the camp of
the spiritual race''s army.
At the dead of the night, the primeval forest seemed to be very quiet. All the living creatures had
already fallen asleep.
At the same time, Rocky, was still up, nning the next steps to deal with the spiritual race''s army.
Suddenly, he saw a shadow standing outside his tent. However, the figure disappeared in an instant
before he had the opportunity to know who it was.
Rocky found it rather strange and had a bad feeling about it. His eyes narrowed, and he decided to go
out.
Not long after, he found the figure again. This time, he chased it out of the military camp until he arrived
at an open ground about a mile away from the camp.
Noticing that Rocky had already followed her, the figure finally stopped and faced him directly.
The moment the figure turned around, Rocky found out that it was actually a woman with delicate
features. Moreover, he instantly noticed that she was very familiar. Apparently, she was the beast tamer
of the spiritual race''s army that he encountered a couple of times before—Beverly.
"Oh, it is you again. I believe I don''t know your name yet," Rocky said indifferently.
"I believe so too. My name is Beverly," she replied.
"I see. It is a pretty name," Rocky said with a faint smile as if he was not threatened at all.
