"What are you going to do now that the Tiger Whisker Pass has fallen to the enemies? Are you going to just hide here in the Wild Hill Pass and wait for the worst to come? That's definitely not your style!" Because Shirley knew Rocky so well, it was like she could read his mind. She was sure that he would never just sit on the sidelines and wait for death to show its face.
"No. I have figured out the reason why the spiritual race has chosen to occupy Tiger Whisker Pass, and I successfully nipped their plan in the bud. Now, it's time to focus on recapturing the Tiger Whisker Pass!" Rocky said with determination in his eyes.
"Do you need my help?" Shirley offered. She craved to work alongside Rocky again.
"No thanks. I have a more important job for you," Rocky replied.
"What is it?"
"I need you to look for a man." From his back pocket, Rocky removed a portrait. The person in the portrait was Elder Lenard, the man who had made the deal with Phelps. Rocky wanted to find out Elder Lenard's true identity. That way, they may be able to discover who he worked for.
Shirley took the portrait from him, scrutinized it, and asked, "Is this man's appearance accurate?"
"I'm pretty sure!" Rocky replied.
"Okay then. I'll ask someone to look into it right away, but it may take some time!" Shirley said.
"Oh, I'm not in a hurry. All of it is in your hands now," Rocky responded.
"Don't worry. I'll see it through. Catch you later." In a short amount of time, Shirley had matured a lot. Although she didn't want to leave Rocky, she knew that what Rocky had asked her to do was very important. It would have to become her priority.
After Shirley departed, Rocky returned to his tent and entered the Magic Spiritual Space. The moment he arrived, a dozen Human-shaped Giant Beasts he had captured were standing before him.
It would be impossible for him to control so many Human-shaped Giant Beasts at once using his Mysterious Beast Transformation Skill. In fact, it would not be an easy job to control even just one of those beasts. Normally, a beast master and some other personnel were needed to control one. Rocky had to prepare himself to do it all alone.
Right now, he had to think of another method of controlling the Human-shaped Giant Beasts. After a while, he decided to transform them. To do that, he was going to have to perform a small operation on them that would make them follow his orders unconditionally.
The only downside was that it would take a long time.
However, transforming the Human-shaped Giant Beasts would be worth it in the future.
While Rocky kept busy making his preparations, Phelps was brimming with rage and embarrassment over the stolen troop distribution map.
He looked around his tent at all the commanders and deputy commanders. Their heads were hung low and none of them dared to make a sound.
"You are all useless! Such a disappointment!" Phelps scolded, throwing his hands up into the air to prove his frustration.
"Grand Commander, maybe the army guarding the Tiger Whisker Pass stole the troop distribution map from us?" a commander speculated.
"It's quite possible. Maybe they deliberately retreated from the Tiger Whisker Pass to see why we attacked them. Then they tailed me and witnessed my deal with the humans," Phelps replied. Even if he were right and had figured out who stole the map, it was too late.
"It looks like our deal with that clan has been revealed."
