The moment that the speed of the human race's army increased, surprise filled Isabel's face. Her Snake Array could use the mysterious power and make her army march faster. Logically speaking, it should be easy to catch up with the human race's army. What she hadn't been expecting was that the human race's army would also speed up. She thought hard but she couldn't figure out what kind of trick they had used.
Despite this, she did not give up. Instead, she chased after the human race's army as fast as she could.
Moving quickly, the troops led by Tucker arrived at the west of the Heavenly Rain Valley. There, they met the army of five thousand soldiers that was led by Bertram. The latter had to wait there for the ambush. Afterward, Tucker and his army turned and retreated into the Heavenly Rain Valley, leaving Bertram and his army behind.
The moment that Isabel and her army arrived, they were ambushed by Bertram's army.
All around them, countless arrows flew from a covered area on one side of the forest. Soon, the sky was covered with them. It looked like it was raining.
"There is an ambush. Stop chasing them!" Isabel ordered, stopping in her tracks. She had thought that the human army was too busy running to set up an ambush. Because she was cautious and determined, she called her army back to her side.
However, as a result of the sudden ambush, her army was panicking.
After completing their task, Bertram and his army walked away, leaving the spiritual race's army in its chaos. Now, they were scouting the area to see if there would be a second ambush.
Before long, Isabel realized that she had been fooled and she grew even angrier. However, the human race's army had already retreated without a trace, so she had no other choice but to retreat too.
By the time Tucker and his army returned to the Heavenly Rain Valley, he had broken out in a cold sweat.
They waited for a while until Bertram and his army joined them.
Then, Tucker summoned Rocky, three deputy commanders, and Eunice to his tent to discuss what to do next.
"The enemy commander is so powerful! I almost fell into her trap!" Tucker exclaimed. There was still some fear lingering in his eyes.
"Yes. She seems to be quite proficient at the mysterious military arrays. Fortunately, I saw through the array she deployed just in time. Otherwise, sir, you would have suffered losses," Rocky stated. In fact, he had asked Tucker to go out to meet the enemy in order to see how strong the enemy's array would be. There had been no reason for Rocky to suspect that the enemy commander would be that proficient at the mysterious military arrays.
"Yes, and she is a female. She's going to be difficult to get rid of!" Tucker sighed.
"Their strength is superior to ours, and their commander understands the mysterious military arrays well. We are at a disadvantage," Rocky commented with a frown.
"Basil, aren't you also proficient at the mysterious military arrays? If we were to use them, I think we may be able to regain the upper hand," Bertram proposed.
"I am, but I can't teach the soldiers the more profound mysterious military array now because there isn't enough time. Besides, it looked like the spiritual race's army has been trained very strictly. We could use arrays to fight them, but we may still suffer losses in the battle. And we can't forget that their army can change their array very fast. I saw it with my own eyes. I wasn't expecting it," Rocky added.
