Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master novel Chapter 429

Upon the next sunrise, the Crimson Dragon Army concluded the deployment of three thousand soldiers under the command of Dunn. The soldiers joined by two squads of spirit manipulators were tasked to attack the weakening front line of the Timber Deity Empire.

As Dunn's army focused on damaging the weak front line of the Timber Deity Empire, Marin and Sabina led an army of six thousand soldiers and three squads of spirit manipulators. They sneakily deployed an ambush attack on the west side of the Hippo Land, ready to attack the west front line as soon as the Timber Deity Empire army fought back.

The entire mission was led by Rocky who stayed behind with his army of less than one thousand soldiers.

Under the leadership of Dunn, the army adhered to the plan and easily gained the upper hand in their battle against the Timber Deity Empire troops. It only took Dunn and his three thousand soldiers an hour to fully damage the enemy's weak front line.

Not long after Dunn's successful penetration of the Timber Deity Empire's front line, sounds of fighting, crying, and screaming filled the air.

As Marin anticipated, the raid launched by Dunn's army disrupted the defense front line of the Timber Deity Empire. Soon after, more soldiers were deployed to fight against Dunn's troops.

Marin and Sabina took no time to hatch a plan. Upon realizing what was happening to Dunn's troops, they deployed their soldiers and the squads of spirit manipulators. They attacked from both sides of the west of the Hippo Land and focused on penetrating the front line of the Timber Deity Empire from both sides.

After an excruciating battle, Marin and Sabina's six thousand soldiers were all gathered in the center of the battle ground. They planned to press forward to the enemy's den. But first, they had to cross the forest that separated them from the camp of the Timber Deity Empire army, and destroy their remaining defense line.

With a quick exchange of confident looks, Marin and Sabina were ready to lead their army into the forest that would take them to their enemy's lair.

Then, the forest began to tremble as trees all around shook with force and shadows appeared and disappeared into the darkness.

In the forest, Rocky—who was supposed to be left behind—emerged. He stood stoically as he watched the ongoing battle in front of him, showing no intention of offering help.

"There are much fewer soldiers in the west side than what we have prepared for," Rocky muttered. "This is a problem." From the outlines of the forest, Rocky saw Marin and Sabina appear quickly, taking a deep breath, and charging into the depths of the forest where the battle was happening.

Then, soldiers from the Timber Deity Empire appeared from the deep parts of the forest. "Run!" they cried in panic. "The Crimson Dragon Army is coming!" "We can't stop them!" another voice screamed in fear.

Upon hearing the announcement of the panicked voices, the Timber Deity Empire troops quickly ran out of the forest.

Marin didn't want to let them get away. "Everyone, charge!" she commanded. She led the soldiers to go after the Timber Deity Empire troops and attack their main camp.

Before she could go any farther, Rocky appeared in front of Marin and gestured her to stop.

"Rocky?" Marin asked, surprised. "What are you doing here?" she continued. She thought Rocky wasn't supposed to join their attack.

"Commander Marin," Rocky started calmly, "I think we should stop for now." When Marin did not respond, Rocky squinted his eyes and fixed his demeanor. This time, he made sure she realized it was an order.

"What do you mean?" Marin asked. She held Rocky's steady gaze.

"I said we should stop for now and go back to camp," Rocky repeated.

"Why should we go back?" Marin probed, this time with more conviction. "The soldiers of the Timber Deity Empire are afraid of us," she continued. "If we continue fighting, I'm sure we'll win!" Marin was baffled at the command of Rocky and she made sure he saw it.
