Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 698 A Heavy Blow

"All soldiers, retreat!" At this point, Rocky commanded 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 two commanders of the Holy Sea Empire didn't want to give up that easily. They immediately commanded 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 day later, the two commanders 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 immediately launched 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 two commanders of the Holy Sea Empire were astounded as they didn't expect that a large group of soldiers would suddenly emerge from the Heaven Unicorn City.

At this moment, two figures appeared on the city wall. The two figures glanced 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 days later, 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 soldiers launched 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 successfully 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 annihilate the remaining several thousand Holy Sea Empire soldiers

Up to now, Rocky had successfully 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 succeeded 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 successfully 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 is completely accurate,” the spirit manipulator answered with cupped hands. He was dressed in a black 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. According 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 glared 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 was completely 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 Flame Empire soldiers have suddenly launched 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 days later, when the Timber Deity Empire troops got their reinforcements, they joined hands with the Roaring Flame 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.
