"Commander Zuo was killed!" "Commander Zuo is dead!" Panic-stricken, all the soldiers and spirit manipulators of the Timber Deity Empire looked at the head of Commander Zuo that was lying on the ground. They were trembling with fear because Rocky seemed to have satanic power. It was obvious that the morale of the troops of the Timber Deity began to slump.
On the other side, the troops led by Rocky had dancing hearts as their morale rose rapidly when they found that Rocky had fulfilled the decapitation task, despite the fact that there were only less than five hundred people left.
Soon after the decapitation, a large number of troops of the Timber Deity Empire had no energy nor urge to continue fighting the battle. They discarded their shields and armors and kept running like sheep as they fled away. Only a few stubborn spirit manipulators didn't give up, and fought bravely until they were all killed by Rocky's troops.
A while later, Rocky was surrounded by hundreds of overjoyed people who were dancing and chanting joyful melodies. Their cheers were so loud that they sounded like thunder. They were also playing football with commander Zuo's head instead of a ball.
"Attention, everybody! It's not time to celebrate yet. I want you to divide yourselves into two groups, and then burn the two camps of the Timber Deity Empire in the east of the Rough Slope," Rocky ordered. Despite Rocky's joy, he could still think straight. He looked calm and serious.
The soldiers and spirit manipulators immediately left to carry out his order.
Rocky walked to the bloody head of Commander Zuo, which was already covered in dust and sand. He picked it up by its messy hair, and disappeared on the spot.
Meanwhile, the troops of the northeast military army led by Marin were attacked by two camps of troops of the Timber Deity Empire at the same time, and they were about to break down. They kept stepping backward, and their casualties were increasing, regardless of their use of the Eight Heaven Locks Array taught by Rocky. However, due to the huge gap between the forces of the two parties, the Eight Heaven Locks Array could only block the enemy for a while before they could break through it. After all, Marin was not very familiar with the array, so she could not take full advantage of it. So, it was mainly Marin's misuse of the array that made it easily broken because if the array was organized by Rocky himself, the troops of the Timber Deity Empire would not be able to break through it even with twice their forces.
By now, the northeast military army was badly besieged at a distance from the predetermined route for retreat. Therefore, they had to break out by force so as to retreat to the grove on the right rear of their camp according to Rocky's plan.
However, the current situation was more dangerous than they had imagined. It was almost impossible for the northeast military army to fight their way out of the siege, even if at a considerable cost.
"Commander Marin, you'd better surrender. You can never hold up till tonight with that little force you have left." Commander Zhou from the Timber Deity Empire shouted to Marin after passing through the crowd and being escorted by several spirit manipulators. Meanwhile, Marin was fighting dauntlessly in the front of the northeast military troops.
"Hem!" she snorted at Commander Zhou, with a cold and disdainful glance.
"Go!" Commander Zhou waved his hand at his soldiers after getting angered by Marin's refusal to give up. In an instant, thousands of soldiers and spirit manipulators rushed to the northeast military troops from all directions, just like a flood.
Upon seeing this frightful scene, Marin became panicked. She didn't know whether Rocky could manage to kill the other commander of the Timber Deity Empire or not, but she did know that the northeast military army could no longer hold up. They just had to fight their way out of the siege and retreat as planned.
After hesitating for some moments, Marin decided to show her ace in the hole. She made a crack in the air, and a giant dragon immediately came out of the crack. When it spread its wings, a gust of heavy wind came through like terrifying waves.
